Bit of old news.
We talked about this yesterday.
Nothing much.
They're basically saying they're aware of what we want. But that's about it. Nothing about actually catering to these kinds of huge fan wants.
Admittedly, this does seem to be uplifting for fans of Waluigi and Geno, but I highly doubt this changes much from before.
Besides, how can they
not know how badly fans want these two when some (a small minority) Waluigi fans sent Sakurai death threats through his DMs?
Just because they acknowledge what some of us want, doesn't necessarily mean we'll get it. Waluigi, Isaac, Ashley, etc. are still Assists after all, and there's no denying some of them (some more than others) had a loud large sum of supporters.
I hope I don't come off as pessimistic. This does show that Nintendo-- Nintendo of America anyway-- is aware of what some of us want. But Nintendo of Japan?
Eh... Things don't exactly seem to be that way for whatever reason.
This does help Geno fans a bit though, less so Waluigi fans.
