I feel like "unreasonably high expectations" would be more like Banjo/Geno type stuff. Let's be real here, a Bethesda character would be hype but it would also be kind of a meme, it would be cool if it happened but not any bigger than Cloud or Steve really.
yall sure are talking like heihachi and skyrim man are a lock
I'd love to see where we discuss them in that manner.
You mean not bigger than the biggest third party reveal to date and what will be the second biggest third party reveal to date?
I suppose Yacht Club Games would also a newcomer without much on their belt on the realm of Nintendo, especially when it comes to having any outside overseas audience.
We're talking in hypothetical what-ifs.
Exactly. Bethesda has a LOT, of value. Nintendo recognizes this that's why Bethesda's already got 5 ****ing games on the Switch.
Thats a very bleak outlook of the world. Just because people really want characters in does not mean they are going to lose it if that character does not get in. I personally really believe Sora will be the second Square rep, but I wouldn't be "burned" if he isn't.
Is this question open to all of us?
Eeeeeeeh... This is Smash fandom, some people will definitely act like that and then turn newcomers scapegoats for their disappointment but it doesn't mean we can't be reasonably hopeful.
Sure it can be a question to all
. King would be interesting as he would be another wrestler. I agree I think its time for someone else from Tekken to have the spotlight Jin or Kazuya would be a nice change.
Why do you say as such? They simply haven't been released yet. It'd be misleading to add them as the banner as of now is for the base game.
But we're just talking about them, not saying they're definite or anything.
A more mundane reason would be Sakurai apparently wanting to talk face-to-face with creators. I can see that being a problem if there is language and distance limits but I doubt it would prevent them from getting in completely.
That's what I said. That I hope that they get added as they get released.
The man has translators ahah
Skyrim Etch-a-Sketch has the best specs of them all. #Etch-a-SketchMasterRace
thanks i try
He crips characters from their own games all the time. Plus, it's not like he can't make one up by himself if he puts his best efforts into it. The question is, would he?
Something I want to note is that Bethesda HAS made dents in the Japanese market and some of their games are definitely known there. The most successful I think has to be The Evil Within, THAT got popular, for sure.
I personally can't wait for Skyrim to come to my Samsung refrigerator haha. Fun fact there is an actual mode for Alexa to have Skyrim quotes in.
No matter what people think imo Skyrim is objectively one of the games that defined the decade. I think Japan knows that too.
I can guarantee you that Japan very much knows Skyrim, for sure.
Its true he considered Heihachi as a fighter, but went with Pacman. This is because he said Heihachi's moves were too hard to put into Smash. Which is really odd considering Heihachi had already been in PlayStation All Stars and StreetFighterXTekken. Playstation All Stars playing similar to Smash and StreetfighterxTekken being a 2d game. Perhaps he said this because Pacman was just an easier fighter to make.
Sakurai has acknowledged John Carmack (who made DOOM), as the father of the FPS genre in the Sakurai x Normura interview (Part 2). In the very same interview he acknowledges Castlevania, which would be included in Smash Ultimate. While Sakurai also mentioned many other game designers, it's important that Sakurai says this:
Internationally. Seems to fit in with this other popular Sakurai statement from the Sm4sh DLC (read: Pre-Ultimate) era in regards to third parties.
DOOM could certainly be one of the few "major globally-recognized franchises" left at this point. I would even say it's likely this is the case. Given Nintendo and Bethesda's great relationship recently, and the fact that Bethesda has spoken with Nintendo about Smash leads me to believe that it's likely that DOOM Guy was on Nintendo's list and Sakurai chose him as a hype third party pick.
Not exactly. That's a bit misleading. The moves are there, but transferring Tekken's mechanics faithfully to Smash is the issue. An issue that he might not be able to overcome even to this day. Making mechanics work from 3D to 2D can be difficult, especially depending the context of how the mechanics work.
We have silent protagonists since the first game. Only thing Smash For changed was adding characters with customization in their looks.
I would think Dragonborn would fit this too. Though I'm biased.
the dlc is bad officially
