I mean...

There's nothing saying that the veterans that aren't here are all cut. Plus this matches with what PapaGenos has been saying exactly, and he said Hugh is also in, so...yeah, there are definitely more veterans. It's newcomers that aren't here that are in trouble.

That being said I dig these newcomers. Gerald and Grandma Gertie especially. Like yeah I'd have loved to see Arnold, but I like pretty much all of Hey Arnold's ensemble cast so these two are great. Anyway Mr. Hyunh for DLC.

I'm ****ing TERRIFIED if they actually cut two turtles for Donnie and Raph and one Hey Arnold character who isn't Arnold for two more Hey Arnold characters who aren't Arnold. The nuclear fallout will be unsalvageable.
Also oh my god, they BETTER not have cut Powdered Toast Man. That guy was lowkey the best pick in NASB1. For now, I'm hoping they put all the new characters in one promo image and the remaining veterans are just unlockable or something. Other than that, Grandma Gertie is hilarious and Plankton's giant mech is cool. Hope Krabs is next.

So. Thoughts on this roster.

Azula over Zuko is ****ing wild... but I kinda dig it? Really makes the new Avatar stage all the stranger.

Hell yeah at the Beavers coming in, kinda unfortunate for those who wanted them separate tho lmao.

Ember is actually kind of a sick choice as well.

Happy to see Plankton, kinda figured he'd be in a mech and I can't wait to see what he plays like.

El Tigre is... not surprising at this point but I'm still stoked to see him lol.

Gerald and Grandma... yeah those are certainly some CHOICES.

Overall, I'm... confused, but also kinda pleased? I guess at this point it's just a matter of who gets cut, if any happens at all. With the seeming big villain focus, I'm almost 99% sure Shredder is in lol.

So, assuming the image is actually real and not another really good fake, here are my thoughts:


TLDR: Honestly, I think this is a rather solid cast of newcomers (again, if this image is legit), with only one that I'd call "meh" right now.

As for veterans, I wouldn't worry too much. Aside from the apparent mention of Hugh returning, I'm pretty damn sure I saw Powdered Toast Trouble in the trailer, so it'd be weird to have that stage return but not Powdered Toast Man.

Again, though, this image could also end up being a really damn good fake, so I'd keep that in mind, too.

There is something so funny about both Gerald and Grandma Gertie getting in and Arnold himself being absent.

Also I guess this means Nick All-Star Brawl 2 has more black characters than Smash Bros now

It seems like they're really committed to the whole "Arnold is a pacifist thing", which is really funny considering how Sakurai looks at something like that and says "oh hell no, Isabelle get in there and beat up Ganondorf."

So I guess I’ll go ahead and state this:
  • I’m positive the info I was getting was in fact from insiders who were being told stuff. That being said…
  • Pretty much everything they were told was wrong. Like, all of it. Out of the 20+ characters I heard, only two of them were actually real, and even then I barely heard Plankton and Ember I presumed was cut in favor of Vlad
  • I was under the impression the remaining newcomers were Donnie Thornberry, Debbie Thornberry, Luna Loud, Otis, Mr. Krabs and Zuko
  • As far as Casey goes, I was told (though I’m sure it wasn’t accurate) that him and Raph were the TMNT rep newcomers and that Donatello was gonna be DLC. Obviously this didn’t end up happening but with how insistent that other guy was that Casey is in, idk maybe he got pushed to DLC instead
  • I truly still don’t know if there’s any cuts. I was also told Hugh wasn’t cut but like, I don’t see him here, so not sure what to make of that

In other words I highly commend Ludosity/GameMill for seemingly doing a VERY good job keeping the roster under wraps, too bad Amazon screwed it up

You know, a certain character position might trigger a few people here

What IF they are a duo character?

New papa genos video:

Heavily implies beavers are a duo. Also plankton's Mecha is the biggest character in the hame

Papgenos has apparently seen an image of the newcomers t-posing and seems confident that these are all the newcomers. still isn't sure where dog gir fits in though

Thinking it over, I'm actually not too worried about this being the full launch roster. For new characters, we've probably seen all there is to see, but in terms of cuts, it may not be as bad as it seems. Recall that NASB1 launched with 20 characters, 22 if you count the two who were planned for launch and got pushed back, which got upped to 25 with the Universe Packs. Assuming the veterans not pictured in the leak are absent, NASB2 would launch with 26 characters, only gaining one more character than it lost from NASB1. Considering the quality and importance of some of the characters seemingly lost in translation, many would consider this a downgrade. I mean, imagine them trying to sell the game with "now with a whopping ONE more character than you had last year, 50 bucks please!"
At the very least, I'm expecting Lincoln will be back since I doubt Nick would even let them cut him if they wanted to, as well as Mikey and Leo since cutting those two while adding the other two Turtles in their place would be a complete and utter **** move. PTM's stage was in the trailer, so I reckon he's back as well. Oblina's the sole rep of her series, same with CatDog, and I doubt they'd remove a whole series for Arnold's grandma. PapaGenos has been on point with his info so far and he directly said Hugh is back, so I'm willing to bet that's the case. Shredder could be back considering this game's apparent focus on villains, but he could also be cut to avoid a Turtle Emblem situation, so I'm about 50/50 on him. Sandy, Helga, and Toph I have no evidence for and could be in trouble as a result.
But yeah, I sincerely doubt we're looking at 11 cuts this time. That's almost half the original game's roster and I hope and believe the devs aren't that foolish.

Would've genuinely been a way better choice and a good precedent since it would mean Korra doesn't get to always hog the Water Tribe slot.

Hopefully there aren't such things since Korra wouldn't render her or Sokka redundant gameplay-wise.
