Probably around the time they made us pay for the same mediocre online as always, with the bonus of NES games no one cares about and cloud saves that aren't even an option for some games. I remember people saying Nintendo would never do paid online, but like a lot of things (including DLC and online in general) they were just behind the curve. I'm not just hating, Nintendo still makes great games, but we should be real about this.
That depends on what content they have and what they want to share. Doesn't even have to be a character, but Smash will show up in the general Nintendo Direct in a way to make one last appeal to non-Smash fans.
Well I was not trying to be realistic, it was just my ideal roster.
(Ganon)(New gen rep.)(New IP, maybe someone from Arms)(Nintendo Labo WTF character)So you're going to put all your stocks in a "leaker" that has been beaten to the punch by Spawn Wave multiple times then?
Nuuuuu King K. Rool!!!!Well I was not trying to be realistic, it was just my ideal roster.
Anyway, in that case:
I can't cut more than this, the remaining ones are all important and I want to keep some newcomers to give the game some new factor. Any other cut and the roster would feel dull, old and very disappointing for a new game.
The only ones I could cut are Mewtwo and Pit, but Pokèmon is a big franchise and Pit is the only NES rep. remaining.
There are 2 versions of Ganon, but I can't cut any of them, Ganon is important in some games and Ganondorf is important in some others; they are the same entity but they are equally important.
I even had to cut Wario against my will, and every DK side character as well (because Yoshi and DK are branches on Mario and can be still considered as Mario characters).
As for the newcomers:
Ganon is the bad*** newcomer to build hype
New gen Pokèmon rep makes sense and it's needed IMO
New IP to keep the game fresh and up to date
Nintendo Labo as WTF character because we need something unexpected and iconic to give the game an identity (a robot made of cardboard would work just fine).
Obviously, but if it comes AFTER the Smash Direct, I'm expecting nothing more than a general 'advertisement' spot, like how most games are shown off, especially so in the September Direct, moreso talking about what the game has to offer.
Wow, harsh...
I'm just gonna be on the safe side and say Team November...
No one necessarily says it would have to be paid day 1 DLC. They could do it similarly to Kirby Star Allies for that situation.
Where's my Team November people at
I'm Team January. I think Nintendo will forget to release the game until halfway through January and put out an apology. It'll just slip their mind, like a small homework assignment or changing that light bulb. Reggie will wake up one morning, put on his glasses, push aside his Bonnie Tyler and Bayonetta body pillows and think aloud, "Wait, weren't we going to release a game or something?". Then he'll call up Sakurai, but nobody will answer the phone because Sakurai died of a stroke once he realized that the game he worked so hard on was completely forgotten about by everyone in the company.
Yeah, I'd dropped the topic because people kinda ignored it but the roster I posted was my guess at who they'd keep if they had to cut most of the roster. I thought it would be interesting to actually talk about why they pick characters and all that.Well I was not trying to be realistic, it was just my ideal roster.

I probably could cut Ness though I decided to keep him because he's one of the originals... but I had no mercy for Jiggly, Mewtwo is way more iconic and important.

Oh yeah, that. I honestly forget online was paid.
Usually when people say "Day 1 DLC" they're refferring to the paid stuff.
So has a lot of people, because it's the month before release and logically the most likely if we were to look month by month.
To my knowledge no it isn't.
Nintendo isn't beyond pulling that crap, but Sakurai was very critical when he talked about it. He may listen to Nintendo and implement their input, but I think it's likely Sakurai would warn against doing that--he has some muscle. And when talking about DLC in general, Bill Trinen talked about it in terms of how much it's Sakurai's call. Is Day 1 DLC possible? Yeah. Is it likely? At this point with what we know, absolutely not.
Here's hoping Smash Ultimate provides that opportunity as well.
I never tried to claim they were pure or perfect, just that day 1 DLC just seems very uncharacteristic of them to me based off of recent practices with other games. If they were in a state like that, we'd probably already see them pull similar shady stuff with other games, but yet we haven't really.
Imo, He seems to be the most likely unique Capcom newcomer, as Monster Hunter seems to be getting just a boss and it'd be pretty hard to get Leon in, without bumping the rating up....
Can't watch rn can a buddy get a transcript of what's importantWell, everyone. It has begun.
I was all for Team October, but if Spawn Wave says it's November, and we have TWO directs, then I can't really argue with the track record he's gotten. I admit defeat.
A little late.
(sorry ).
They got Snake and Bayonetta in without bumping up the rating.
Bro why do people keep comparing 2 entirely un-alike Geno models like it's a "gotcha" todayOh the geno eye rool
This might be the end of it
So if it’s not this leak then what was the cloud leaker talking about
