Konami has a fantastic range of characters. It's just that a good chunk of them are stuck in the backrooms....man, I wish to see Mystical Ninja, Boktai and Rocket Knight come back. Suikoden too, but at least the first two games are getting an HD remaster, so it's a start.
So sue me, it was just a thought. I never said it was right.
I totally agree. I was a pretty big Contra fan as a kid but haven’t kept up much with it since. I loved the first three games on the NES and SNES. The first Contra was also the only game I’ve ever played with my mother as a kid and we managed to beat it with the 50 lives code (which was still harder than it sounds lol). I always wanted to try Hardcore Uprising but never got around to it. After the disappointment in the first Contra Switch game revealed a while back, I was pretty excited to see it return to form in today’s Direct. I’m actually pretty interested in trying it out. Bill and Lance are two of my most wanted characters in Smash. I feel like they’d be fine as alt outfits like Olimar and Alph since the two play identically.
Toad with a power-up moveset, and Toadette as his echo.
You know, on the subject on crossovers in my post, I always thought Contra make a good crossover with Metroid.
Oh yeah, I’d love to see a dual intro trailer for Bill Rizer and Sarah Kerrigan featuring Samus. It’s cool that all three series took a lot of inspiration from the same Alien and Predator movies from the 70’s and 80’s.
Heck yeah! Double Dragon for Smash Bros!
Another point in the Magus column. Being one of the main characters in Radical Dreamers as well as his connection to Guile in Chrono Cross means that he actually had some representation on the Switch. My ideal Crono character is Magus and Guile alt with a moveset that pulls from both characters. I feel like that’s the perfect way to represent the entire series. And that has nothing to do with Magus being one of my favorite characters and Guile being in my top two favorites in Chrono Cross before I even knew about the connection

I would have to agree...fully, that is. Well, even if Chrono does become playable in the next Smash Bros. Magus can always be an assist trophy.Another point in the Magus column.

I’ll take a Magus assist trophy. At least then I’ll have a good model I can port over Sephiroth, who has a lot of similar traits, or Ganondorf if Sephiroth doesn’t return for some reason.
I can picture Kunio and Riki making it in over Billy and Jimmy...and I'd be happy with that too.
How would everyone feel if they went with the more recent Kyoto and Misako from River City Girls over Kunio and Riki? We did get Cloud over Hero of Light and Joker over Naoya Todo so I suppose it’s not impossible.
Nah, Kunio has a huge legacy in Japan, they won't pass him up for the main characters of the Fairly Popular Indie Sequel
Yeah, Pyoro was right about everything. I think Papagenos was mostly in agreement with Pyoro, though there was one prediction form him about the Peach game that did not show up in this trailer, though a background element hints that he is still correct in that specific leak.
lolz nope
I thought so, actually. Just wanted to make sure.
Kyoko and Misako are no Cloud Strife. And Naoya Todo is no Kunio.
In a way that no one really wanted, in true Nintendo fashion.
I guess it counts as the series not being dead. But I don't think it's enough to get a character in.
It's not really the same thing.
No. F-Zero will only get another rep if either Sakurai wants a character from F-Zero or if F-Zero gets a new title, or maybe a GX remaster/remake, that does more than well.
Um, yeah. I was just asking to make sure, you know that.
I did just have a thought. Noah and Mio are pretty likely candidates to be in the next Smash game, but I've never really seen N and M get discussed as Echo Fighters for them, despite being the original versions of Noah and Mio. Thoughts about this potentially happening?
Let her go
If Smash 6 hasn't started development yet, I could see XC3 getting skipped over for presumably XC4. I think the next game will probably show up earlier than later on the Switch 2.
How likely do you guys think Smash 6 has started devolopment?
It's probably in some early form of development.
Also Arthur. He had a new Switch game just 2 years ago.
Oh yes.
Displeased.
Not really the same. FF and Persona protags star in, like, 1 game each. Kunio has starred in, like, 50 games. The RCGs have starred in 2.
I don't know what you mean, but I like that shanty. So have a Like.
