The fact that Rex was too late deconfirms any FE 3 Houses character being dlc. THANK GOD.

Where's the proof of DLC being planned that far back?

Granted there was the rumor of DLC characters being the ones that didn't make the cut but I never heard that said in both the Japanese and English versions of the Direct.

 

[Kuon]

Am I the only person here who is going buy every single lick of DLC this game has to offer regardless of who, what, where, when or why the DLC is?

I'm going to buy the DLC pass, so count me in

GameXplain just released a huge analysis of World of Light

Oh baby!
Time to get cozy on the couch with some snacks and listen to some gamexplain.

Honestly supporting the idea of Edelgard getting in Smash. There are heaps of characters I'd love to see, but unlike Katalina and Steve, I think Edelgard has a really good design. Relevancy picks still aren't my favourite, though (with exceptions, I'd have loved to see Spring Man).

**** that. I'll buy the DLC that I want to buy and I'm perfectly content with just the Base Roster if what the DLC lineup is being rumored as.

And it also let's me save a lot of $$$ for things I might not want. A win-win in my eyes.

 

[Kuon]

That ain't lucky, any FE being available ain't good.

Wait a second, it's okay to have ten different playable Pokémon and eight Mario characters but not eight Fire Emblem characters?

I dont really like the idea of no showing my what's in the fighter pass but, yeah...

Smash is the perfect party game every weekend, I always play Smash with my friends. So, I have to by the dlc in order to have a complete roster in the meetings with friends.

FE is pretty small compared to those two. Though some people forget Lucina and Chrom (and Daisy) are just echos, so counting them alongside with unique characters gives weird results when comparing numbers.

I will never understand why some people compare Fire Emblem to freaking Mario and Pokémon lol.

 

[Robertman2]

I've already bought the pass.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Ramen Tengoku You're about to become a Smash Master

Yes indeed

Wait a second, it's okay to have ten different playable Pokémon and eight Mario characters but not eight Fire Emblem characters?

To be fair, Fire Emblem isn't as big as the juggenauts that are Pokemon and Mario...

 

[Gyrom8]

There are some potential DLC characters I have zero interest in, but I'm probably going to cave in and buy them anyway. Otherwise that incomplete stage list will forever taunt me.

 

[Deleted member]

Yes indeed

Congratulations!

Mario and Pokemon are Nintendo’s 2 biggest and best selling franchises, no contest. FE doesn’t come close.

 

[Will]

Unless Fire Emblem is now the 3rd best series Nintendo has...



Well, you tell me.

I'm saying it's not great because Celica has a sword, which means it's automatically bad reception no matter what happens. She could be a Robin echo for all Sakurai cares, and then the appeal is still just as "bleh" as it was before. The only ones who want more FE are FE fans, and even then some claim that too many is too many. Unless she's Hector or Ephraim, she should probably stay back before she becomes either a victim to mob hate or rule 34.

 

[Kawaki&Boruto98]

there is something that has been in my mind for a while now. WTF IS THAT INKLINGS VICTORY MUSIC? they should have used the splatoon 1 when u win in story mode. like from where did they get this music from they used in ultimate. so disappointing

 

[Angelglory]

If FE had a less... clone-y stable of fighters (and some weapon variety), I wouldn't mind more. But as it stands, I'm good with never seeing another FE character again.

 

[Amiibo Doctor]

I will never understand why some people compare Fire Emblem to freaking Mario and Pokémon lol.

Right? If we're going to go with turn-based strategy games, let's add some Advance Wars or MOTHER characters. Heck, does Mario Party have anyone original? How about E. Gadd, does he count? The last thing we need is a Fire Emblem character, and that was true two games ago.

I don’t like that alot of characters have shorter victory themes now. Give us a moment to enjoy the victory and the music.

[Kawaki&Boruto98]

Who even lurks at the ledge that long in the first place

The game is trying to get you to play offensively not defensively, hence dodging being nerfed and such. Ledge regrabbing over and over is stupid anyways

maybe i'm using ledge as a way to survive after getting thrown out? if i got thrown out 4 times i can't use the ledge the 5th time. nah man this is dumb

 

[Flyboy]

So let's talk Classic Mode. We now know that not only does every character have a unique Classic lineup, those lineups also include custom music, can include different variations on the stage selection, and are themed. So far we know Ryu, Jigglypuff, and Isabelle.

Isabelle has to face every female fighter in the game.

Ryu's mode is all made up of one-on-one fights in Omega versions of the stages and evokes Street Fighter II's Arcade mode.

Jigglypuff is apparently themed after the N64 Classic mode and has you battling the original 8.

What else could we be seeing? Duck Hunt against people who use guns? Snake against mature and futuristic characters? Or maybe a giant metal ROB? So many possibilities!

 

[Wiziliz]

Who is everybody looking to main?


Also, if someone from Gen 8 gets added (don't want it, but if it does happen), I hope it's either a grass starter (final evolution) or not a starter. A playable ice type would be great for annoying opponents.

Zelda has just about same variety and people still ask for a fighter from it for years though...

How about...?

Try not to get thrown out

This new mechanic has more pros than cons, my friend

There’s no way people know Isabelle more than DK or Link.

 

[ZaneHitsurugi]

Because its another over-represented series with some garbage picks.

Isabelle has become more recognized than Luigi lately
I mean you still have like 1000s of people that call Luigi "Green Mario"
I hate it but it's the truth

Simon faces Dark Samus, Bowser, Ridley, Villager, Bayonetta, Mewtwo and finally, Ganondorf.

Okay

Luckily this leaves a spot nice and open for Celica.

Celica (as a grown woman), get yo amazing *** self over here

Not sure if I should agree or not

Make that 2 persons/people

But it's not the truth at all

Isabelle might be recognizable for a Nintendo fan

But no freakin' way is she more recognizable than THE player 2 character in gaming

Ask anyone

This seems right, but replace Luigi with Sonic and swap his spot with Donkey Kong's. I'm not sure if Ryu is more popular than Link or not, but I think he might be.

 

[Deleted member]

Ahhh speculation, how I miss thee.

Can we please pull our pants up and put away the measuring tape for now?

We 'may' get a DLC announcement at the VGAs. Isn't that exciting enough?

Also maybe I imagined this, but did someone say that the Katalina talk fell through? Pretty sure someone mentioned that...

EDIT: Curious is all.

I am more excited about the possibility of Nintendo pulling a Luigi’s Mansion 3 again, but now with F-Zero.

I'm going to buy the DLC pass, so count me in

I am too...
