Not explicitly besides it being absurdly ugly, which doesn't disconfirm anything.
Springman sounds very hype imo
I'm almost less interested in the character and more interested in the other things they might show anyway.
I want to see more Waluigi torture, so I can have a good laugh about it.
Sakurai just wears a Waluigi hat throughout the directI want to see more Waluigi torture, so I can have a good laugh about it.
There's a whole list of Namco characters that have higher priority, so no. Even Valkyrie is much likelier.
Does anybody think Gil has a chance? I don't think he can get in initially, but maybe he added late after, at least knowing that Sakurai has acknowledged him.
Ohhhh!!!!!
Considering VC is gone I think they have no choice.
Hmmm. Yeah, that is definitely fake, but it looks a bit convincing. Something about that organization irks me though . . .
Arent they going to have an online service for old games now?
"Get on the tower please"
Meanwhile I'll be worried over whether my favorites will be assists and looking too much into things in hopes that I psyche myself up that they'll be revealed, and then they won'tI want to see more Waluigi torture, so I can have a good laugh about it.
I'm pretty sure that is the actual Switch online logo, so that would explain the different font.
Bandana Dee Waddles Into Battle!
I like this idea!
get out
I'm personally hoping for a proper ranked mode, because the whole For Fun & For Glory thing is trash.
As a huge Waluigi fan myself, I would actually find that hilarious.
I'd love a Dragon Warrior!
Makoto Yuki burns his dread!
Heihachi Mishima gets ready for the next battle!
That's why I said
Nothing about the rest of that leak offputs me though so... there's that.
I don’t think they’ll **** up as bad as last time. I have a feeling they’ll attempt for a better online system, but since they’re all old people, they won’t really have any idea what to do.
Captain Toad Steals the Competition!
What if...
Bomberman blasts away the competition!
Elma would make a nice Assist Trophy.
THANK YOU! For whatever reason, Elma gets far less skepticism amongst the speculation community than characters like Bandana Dee, Captain Toad, and even Isabelle garner despite them having the exact same argument in their favor as her (timing) while having far more popularity and notoriety with the Nintendo fanbase and far more importance with Nintendo themselves. She's a somewhat logical choice but nothing about Elma screams "priority inclusion".I think Elma has a decent shot at getting into the game, but I also think her chances are overstated by many. I apologize in advance toRie Sonomura
First of all, the XCX composer thing. Given Ultimate's time frame and the project plan, it seems very likely that there will be XCX content in this game in some form. Getting some music from the game seems like a no brainer. I think it's entirely possible we could get a new original piece of music from XCX with no new character. There have been similar things done in the past, such as The Mysterious Murasame Castle getting it's own piece of original music in Smash 4 despite no character or stage. Really, the thing with the XCX composer only solidifies that we'll get new music for XCX which could potentially be added onto a new XCX stage or maybe another Xenoblade stage not related to X.
Then there's the Xenoblade characters thing from Bill Trinen. If you go back and watch the interview, it's clear that Bill has no idea what he's talking about. He just had a real brain fart moment and was trying to think of what franchises were new to Smash and spouted out Xenoblade when he couldn't even remember what characters from it were in Smash. Plus, if he said "The Xenoblade Character" in reference to Shulk that would've made him look like an idiot.
And then you DO have to take into account that if Elma gets into the game, it won't be because of fan demand. XCX was released after the ballot in the west and in the midst of the ballot in Japan. There's no way she was able to build up enough support at the time to be considered for fan demand, so her only chance at getting in is if Sakurai picks her himself, though that's still entirely possible.
I stated this at the beginning, and I'll say it again. I think Elma has a decent shot at getting into the game, but people make her out out to be way more likely than I think she actually is. Maybe she'll be revealed at the Direct on Wednesday and everything I said up above will get thrown out the window but I wouldn't hold my breathe for it.
Tails lands some hits!
you mean FIGHTING POLYGON TEAM
Sakurai: "You didn't think 'everyone is here' only applied to the fighters right?"
I use that same logic you put in Android 21 joining Smash on Clementine from the Walking Dead games
Oh...still some pretty cool newsThat’s who I was talking about.
All the more reason why Pit and Samus are to be in a Brother/Sister type of friendship
That’d be cool, although one problem with that is certain characters are over represented (most notably Falcon, as he has a Polygon, a Wireframe, and an Alloy.)
