Red-
Orange-
Yellow-
Green-
Cyan-
Blue-
Indigo-
Purple-
Pink-

 

[Will]

Well, he has a purple-ish tint in his skin.

 

[Aerospherology]

Gonna post this here even though it's slightly off topic:

 

[Will]

Well, he has a purple-ish tint in his skin.

Well
1. It's not purple
2. You still need Violet.

Good lord even after Base Roster had been confirmed. Theories still are formed.

I doubt a Three Houses rep tbh, Nintendo hasn't been marketing it and Sakurai was the one who ultimately added picks like Roy and Corrin in the past. (Sakurai was looking for a Marth clone before Intelligent Systems presenting Roy and Sakurai's team is the one who pushed for Corrin)

Honestly i think this would be a really good dlc appeals to all fans

Sora's neat but otherwise this SUCKS.

I only want Lloyd but id be down with Edelgard and Steve depending how they play out in the game.

 

[Deleted member]

Good lord even after Base Roster had been confirmed. Theories still are formed.

I've yet to see anyone disprove my old theory: The Theory theory.

The theory states that there are theories. Theories that may in fact, have to do with Smash Bros.

It's flawless. Just like my theories on the box that I totally wasn't wrong about.

 

[Potato_]

Honestly if Hitagi is to be believed, these DLC characters are going to be out there.

Besides Steve, I dunno if we're really going to guess them.

and let's be honest here when has the smash community ever guessed everything correctly

 

[LetterO]

COLOR THEORY

IT LIVES

 

[Dee Dude]

Well
1. It's not purple
2. You still need Violet.

Well I did say almost every color.

Alright, I got a game for you all.

Since is this very likely the only Smash game where everyone is here, cuts will happen for next Smash but this means we’ll get another huge batch of newcomers like previous games, however.

Only 4 fan-requests are added for the hardcore audience, these four are:

Banjo, Geno, Shadow, & Isaac which means the rest are recent/casual choices.

Deal or No Deal?

 

[Crooked Crow]

I can't tell if it's working.

It'll ding automatically after a certain period of time.

 

[The Animator]

So today at the Smash demo the two most common questions were 'Is this the line for Smash?' and 'Is piranha plant in the demo?'
I played as King K. Rool, Simon Belmont, Incineroar, and then K. Rool again.
K. Rool and Simon were both great I liked playing them a lot. I'm happy that K. Rool seems really good.
I wasn't feeling Incineroar, He seemed all flash and no substance; but there may be a learning curve to him.

So from my experience at the previous demo and this one:
: Are great both seem like they have potential to be my main.
: Feels improved, still a viable option for my main.
: Seems alright will need more time to tell.
: Pretty much the same as past games, didn't get to test out his new abilities.
Don't like how they feel, but seem like they might have a learning curve. If not I think they could end up mid to low tier.

 

[Hydrualic Hydra]

I knew I missed something, curse the speed of this board. Did Hitagi actually mention a (non-Agumon) Namco character coming down the pipeline? And anything else?

 

[Double K]

Honestly if Hitagi is to be believed, these DLC characters are going to be out there.

That one guy on 4chan who guessed Ken, Incineroar and PP on the same day?

 

[TMNTSSB4]

The Lightning Chariot is a pretty threatening final smash when used correctly

 

[Deleted member]

Wonder if anything big will get disproved again as soon as the DLC news arrive.

That being said, here's a funny interpretation of PP getting in:

View attachment 177410

I prefer the more wholesome Waluigi and PP art

Spoiler

 

[LetterO]

I just realized that Color Theory never technically got disproven.

Red - Incineroar
Orange - Inkling Girl
Yellow - Isabelle
Green - King K. Rool
Blue - Inkling
Purple - Ridley
Brown - Simon

No colors repeated not counting echos.

COLOR THEORY SAW THE LIGHT OF DAY AFTER ALL

You got a link? Cause that seems more like a leak than an actual prediction.

I'm not really counting those because those people obviously have more info than the average community member.

Depends on who is cut.

But I do want Shadow and Isaac... so Deal, I guess.

Here's something.

We get Edelgard, and Sakurai throws in Hector as a bonus Semi-Clone (same moveset, but slower, heavier and more powerful)?

MORE FIRE EMBLEM.

MORE!!!

INFINITE FIRE EMBLEM ALL DAY EVERY DAY!

 

[Double K]

So another "Cygames" thing

what if it's not Katalina, but they go with one of their popular characters in the gacha

namely, Vira.

She's cool

Won't lie, disappointing.

There are some fantastic choices like Sora from Kingdom Hearts and Bandana Dee to satisfy another request and get Kirby some love, but... Other than that, it's severely lacking. Lloyd's game out of the entire Tales Of series is pretty much most of the reason people know Tales and it doesn't really sit well with the whole "Next Namco Rep After Pac-Man" sort of deal. Not to mention, the timing is pretty off. Why would Lloyd get in over Heihachi, a part of a franchise that continuously is getting updates and still feels fresh and known to a lot of people?

Steve is pretty obvious, but I don't get the "Well He's Popular!" argument. Yeah, you know what else is also popular and is in the same vein as Minecraft, in terms of releases? Tetris. Guess how they treated Tetris in Smash? Two songs and that's it. The popularity argument at this point has and will always come out with a black-eye after getting bashed so much.

Edelgard, no. Please, please no. See, Corrin at least had SOME reason. We knew all about Fire Emblem Fates and the game(s) came out back in June of 2015, where the American and other country releases were later. We knew, to an extent, the characters.

With Three Houses? We know jack ****ing **** and the game hasn't been pushed since E3 almost six months ago.

I HIGHLY doubt that we'll be getting another FE rep.

The sad thing is that while Smash For was an... interesting iteration, you cannot deny that the DLC was absolutely ****ing fantastic and unfortunately, Ultimate is gonna have a LOT to live up to for this round of DLC, since it will always be compared to the two. I, at the least, expect it to match the levels of Ryu, Cloud and Bayonetta. If Ultimate's DLC can do that, which they can very much easily do, DLC will be fantastic like before. But it needs to have that OOMPH, and this line-up... Just ain't it.

Deal or No Deal?

Very likely a no deal for me. Odds are at least some of my favorites will be cut in the next game, and none of those four are gonna make up for that, sadly. Hell, if Chrom gets cut I'll just be sticking to Ultimate for the foreseeable future anyway.

It's the double-edged sword of "Everyone is Here." By giving me a Smash game with pretty much all of my favorites (save for a few who likely won't make it in at this point anyway), plus everyone returning, it exponentially increased the odds of this being the last Smash I have the need to buy.

 

[Double K]

It was more of a leak, so if you're not counting them, fair enough

Why is Shadow considered a hardcore audience choice? He's extremely well known and popular.

It depends on who the recent choices are.

I'd rather have all characters than a -20 loss for just four things hardcore players want. No deal, and I'll glare at you if you say deal.
