I hope that changes in the future, which I guess means I hope she gets into Smash, people who haven't seen her before like her, and she gets more popular.
Knuckles does a three punch combo as an assist trophy, and he used homing attacks in Sonic Heroes. Sorry that Pokemon game's animations leave a lot to the imagination.
I know that it'd be bad for everyone at HAL and Nintendo, and it'd be a huge drop in speculation and hype buttttt.....
I feel this is mentality is somewhat because of the competitive scene (regardless of toxicity), since they don’t play with ATs on. This means characters like Waluigi and Shovel Knight might as well not be in the game at all.
Just like the 103 stages thing, I don’t think the songs are set in stone. There can definitely be new additions to the list of series with the music. There is literally nothing preventing that from happening.
Agreed. There's nothing preventing them from adding new categories and stages. I don't think the numbers are set in stone.
Um....so you think only three more newcomers? When we got 2 at once this past Direct? And I'm not spoilering this because the rumor is not only ridiculous but also debunked. DANTE WILL NOT BE IN SUPER SMASH BROS. EVER.
And I'm pretty sure that Capcom, or at least someone from Capcom, said that Dante isn't going to be in.
I actually loved Mewtwo in melee, he was a great example of a good newcomer, and utilized several different attacks from main-series pokemon, such as Shadow Ball, Cunfusion, and Disable. The point is that what Knuckles does is so lackluster compared to what he can do.
Thanks. I guess the only close one is NYC... but I hate driving into the city... may skip this.
Well first off I doubt we are only getting 1 more per direct. We have gotten 2 new fighters last time, and I am sure if those 2 leakers were right they don't know everyone. Verg has never said shes not in either.
They aren't going to have songs/stages in their demo versions that potentially leak unrevealed characters. During Smash 4, they didn't even update their site trademarks with Namco or MONOLITHSOFT until after Pac-man and Shulk were revealed. Also, those leakers get as many things wrong as right. Vergeben's SCVI "leak" turned out completely wrong after the roster was actually leaked earlier today.
From my guess either he has some sources that know some things, or he is just super lucky and should play the lotto. And I am sure no source of his knows all the info for this game. Plus I think he throws out some things just for hype.
I somehow feel that we still don’t know every stage anyway. You’re absolutely right, not all franchises will be revealed in one direct, especially before a character from that franchise hasn’t been seen.
I personally feel that they could be lying. While some may say that that would break an NDA, they aren’t confirming or teasing a potential inclusion. They could just be trying to make people look away from the leak.
I think the way things are going to go is a Normal Direct and a Standalone trailer for September and October, with one newcomer each. I just can’t see them revealing two non-echoes in a Normal Direct, since they have other games. While it would make sense for a November Smash Direct to reveal two newcomers, I feel one of them (most likely the newcomer reveal at the beginning) is gonna be shafted in favor of a reveal for the green mode. I could be wrong about that part, but I think it can only go to 4, with the most likely fourth being Isaac.
My worry is that there are no more franchises to reveal, since there’s no evidence of Sakurai removing content from a non-demo beta version of the game.
I am pretty sure it would still break NDA. Disconfirm still has confirm in it after all. It's a confirmation of Dantae's lack of an appearance.
Was that intentional?
No. What, is my accidental misspell somehow humerus? Because I know little about Devil May Cry.
I am 99% sure sakurai never said that was the final count. Plus there are 6 more spaces, and sakurai seems very ocd. Hes not going to just leave those spots empty. Dlc will be on its own tab like last game.
I gave an example earlier, like i think last page, of how a normal fall direct could show off 2 newcomers and 2 echos without taking away from other games. Start the direct off with the shantae trailer. Then take a few minutes explaining how they are proud to have their first indie, go over shantae slightly and her stage and risky boss and/or rottytops at. Then go right i to other games, maybe 5 or 7. Then thats the halfway point and have an echo fighter announcement for dixie and isabelle. Then Do more games including pokemon lets go. Last have a trailer showing either the new pokemon or elma and then add all 4 characters to the art. Boom, you have smash info and still show 20 minutes of other game stuff as well.
Especially since with 103 stages(Plus random) you could have easily made a rectangle and not leave any space open.
No. I just figured it was a pun because you spelled Dante like Shantae on her thread. Sorry for the confusion.
True, but I looked into it and how it would work if you added a DLC Button and a Custom Stage Button, but you can’t really make a perfect rectangle with it, so they could have figured it would have been best to keep a 10x11 grid of stages.
Yeah. No way they would blow their last new franchise this early.
That too is an excellent point
I know that it'd be bad for everyone at HAL and Nintendo, and it'd be a huge drop in speculation and hype buttttt.....
True, but keep in mind that Sakurai also revamped almost every stage from previous games, stating that some took more than a year to complete, so I could see Sakurai adding only 4 more new stages. As for the killing stage hype part, I do think that there is a possibility that there are only gonna be newcomers from existing franchises.
I feel that logic doesn’t work, since during Smash 4, people were expecting something to top Cloud, but ended up with Corrin and Bayo.
Sorry, but THAT logic doesn't work. For me, Bayo was just as shocking as Cloud. Those are two characters I never expected to be in Smash Bros., Cloud cause of Square Enix/no FF7 on Nintendo, and Bayo because she's very risque.
