More like a hiatus. I’ve just been more focused on the real-life stuff. That being said, I will continue the thread.Ok, Its Been a long time since this thread has been updated, so is this project discontinued or what?

Megami Tensei's first Persona spinoff game came out in 1996. The development team loved the idea of a smaller setting focusing on young adults after the success of Shin Megami Tensei IF on the Super Famicom. The game had many of its elements rooted in Jungian psychology. The modern Persona series really took route in 2006 with the release of Persona 3. Soon, the Persona spinoff would outgrow its Shin Megami Tensei roots, dropping the moniker entirely during the Persona 4 era.
Persona 5 came out in Japan in late 2016, while releasing worldwide in 2017. I'm going to gush a bit, because Persona 5 (particularly the updated re release Persona 5 Royal) is one of my favorite video games of all time. The writing is a ton of fun, I love the cast of likeable characters. The art direction is some of the best I have seen in any video game. The OST is sublime, I still listen to it all the time. The gameplay, especially in Royal, hones the turn based combat into its finest form. There are so few of the hiccups or filler that other JRPGs can have, Persona 5 Royal is just the definitive JRPG of the 2010s.
Joker's reveal in Smash Ultimate meant a lot for me. It was so exciting standing in line with friends at a Gamestop in the middle of nowhere for Smash Ultimate's midnight release. I already was going to call in sick so I could just get everything I could the next day. The game awards were playing on my phone as we saw Geoff Knightly hype up every announcement. Some like CTR were a ton of fun for me. Some were not. Then the screen darkened and the lights flickered. Seeing Persona as the final announcement made me already ecstatic. But then, we see that envelope. One of my favorite gmaes of all time was going to be in Smash. His release also meant a lot to me. I was in a big depressive episode for April of 2019. Being able to just chill out and play Joker was a breath of fresh air to help me over that rock.
Enough gushing though, what changes?
Well, moveset wise I have Joker almost entirely the same. I probably tone down Arsene Back Air, but I think Joker's final design is in a really great spot. A fluid, dynamic character focused on zone breaking and tempo is a ton of fun. I do make one tiny adjustment with our updated re release. Joker is going to now have two more final Smash rotations. The first will have Morgana, Crow, and Violet in the final smash, referencing Persona 5 Royal. The second will have Sophie, Wolf, and Makoto referencing Persona 5 Strikers.

Speaking of those characters, I will have them also appear in the rotation of appearances on Mementos. Mementos is going to remain more or less the same as it was outside of those cameos and a few more songs. I think it does a great job as our Persona 5 stage. The art direction is great, the hazards on version is chaotic, and the hazards off version is a nice stage for free for alls.
Now for the music. Joker is going to have all the songs that he had in the base game. I will be throwing in a few extra ones though.
From Persona 5 Royal, the following songs will be added into the mix.
From Persona 5's original release, the following songs are added.
From Persona 5 Strikers, we would have the following songs.
From Persona 3 and 4, the following songs would also be added.
Also just for fun, here are a few songs from P1 and P2
I know that is a metric ton of music, but dang it I love me some Persona so why not. If Tekken can get that much love so can Persona.
Now for the Mii Costumes. I think as is, Joker has a pretty good selection of Mii Costumes. I did want to have at least one "deluxe" mii costume with each wave that comes with a music track. For this one, I chose Jack Frost. I think you can pretty naturally translate him into either a Gunner or a Brawler, but I went with Brawler.
For the music track he comes with, I threw in Nocturne's battle theme. I debated with SMT song he would have, but I figured the battle theme to one of the more popular entries would be a nice bone to throw in.
In terms of other mii costumes, I think the only other one I would push would be a Kiryu Mii Brawler. I think it would fit well and we are in a Sega themed pass after all.
Please vote for Joker!
I enjoyed it! Made me decide to update my Sakura pitch as well.I redid my Joker pitch now that I have time. Hope you all enjoy it, I put plenty of thought into it.

To clarify two things...Alright, since mine is the only Story submission:
Job #25: Free update character #2
This time, we're picking a character from the NES era. The only catch is that it has to be a character owned by Nintendo and it can't be from a franchise already represented. You can, however, submit a character who was originally exlcusive to the Famicom.
Yes to both. As of now, AT’s are on the table for playable fighters added in free updates.To clarify two things...
1. By represented, do you mean playable representation only?
2. Are assist trophies on the table?
Sure.Can the RPG character be a Nintendo rep?
