Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden, because "Ryu" translates to dragon.

Don't know why that was the first one that came to mind, but I figure I should be honest.
Wow that was fast, that’s who I was going for. I was wondering how many guesses of Spyro and Goku would be made before that.

EDIT: Speaking of...

It honestly is strange how they chose to make female byleth allergic to pants and I kinda don't like it


Umm do females wear more revaling clothes when they are about to go fight in a war cause I don't think that one happens in any case I'm pretty fond of male byleths design so I will choose him anyway
they dont need to worry about that since they have incredible acrobatic abilities, throw lighting like zues from their hands, and RNG

To make up for the mistake that is making Pegasus knight female locked again after Fates had 2 male pegasus knights
There's way more male only classes than there are female only classes though. The women straight up have 2 or 3 less options than the men.

correction
To make up for the fact the female has more same sex parings then the male

No but seriously, I dunno why there are so many sex locked classes. They really should unlock them all. I want male pegasus knights back

What's really baffling is that dark mage and hero were never gender locked, but are male only for some reason here. I'm hoping they have some sort of equivalent class like fates did with maids/butlers but it doesn't look likely at this point.

Remember that Nintendo is the one setting out to pick characters, not the other way around. If Sakurai wanted Phoenix instead of a RE character, I really doubt that Capcom would attempt to renegotiate for another character even if they did have a preference.
I could easily see a company suggest characters to Nintendo though. Pretty much everyone company has said they would love x character in smash. So I’m sure if Capcom wanted to reach out and request something they could have.

According to the rumors dragon quest was added as a request to promote the series in the west.
Joker, Hero, and Banjo already made it worth it for me.

Well, considering that Project x Zone is an Action-based RPG series, it makes sense that Phoenix Wright wasn't in it..I mean, they had to make-up a reason for him to be able to do anything other than just being there..Phoenix and Maya are not fighters at all..they literally only got included in PxZ2 because Ace Attorney is a popular series.
Though, yes, along with Street Fighter, Monster Hunter, and Mega Man, Resident Evil is one of Capcom's most prolific, popular, and profitable series.
I don't know if Capcom were the ones to decide that Chris & Jill were the 'headlining' units in Project x Zone, I mean, Namco and Monolith were the ones that made it and just licensed the characters from Capcom, Sega, and Nintendo/Intelligent Systems.
From a storyline standpoint though, Chris and Jill make sense since they are from a Government Organization like the other main characters of the series itself are.

Its possible that Nintendo just did that because of Resident Evil being a big series and likely brings both them and Capcom a lot of money while the Dragon Quest series is HUGE in Japan, so of course they'd spend a lot of time on it and are likely, once again, hoping to improve the series popularity in the West to bring both them and Square-Enix more money.
I doubt either had a lot to do with Smash Bros. at all outside of Nintendo showing a Dragon Quest XI S trailer immediately after the Hero's reveal.
This is pretty fair, But let’s be honest, they didn’t need to make a reason as for why Phoenix can fight. Marvel Vs Capcom was a thing and afaik Phoenix didn’t have any excuse as to why he could fight. So they really didn’t need to give him one.

Also they used spirit channeling as an excuse to murder people before. Hell thats literally the plot of reunion and turnabout. It’s established lore that yes if you summon the right person spirit channeling can absolutely kill. Yeah you need a name and all that, and it would be a little weird but they seemed to really underplay things. If Phoenix can fight no problem in a fighting game, they didn’t need to power creep him here.
I get everything else for the story, but they honestly could have gotten away with not needing a reason to make him unless till a certain point.

As for who is important to the story, I have to imagine they let each company choose their defining characters, I would be surprised otherwise.

Wouldn't capcom have been the one to create that spot? I doubt nintendo is particularly concerned with promoting another companie's series.
I really doubt they did. I don’t think anyone outside of Nintendo has a say in how directs are formatted, otherwise they would leak way more often if multiple companies had access to content for it, or were told to come up with something.
Not eveything a company does with Nintendo hints to Smash. Always remember.
What!?

What do you mean? Everything on the internet relates to smash I thought?
:p

But I do still think that spotlight was pretty important. Won’t be long till we find out

So Nintendo themselves picked 5 characters for Sakurai to make with him having no say on which characters they might be?

Are you sure? I feel like this would be more widespread by now, I was under the impression that there was a list of possible characters.
So I could have sworn this was posted somewhere, either about a column in Famitsu, or in his latest book, but I could be wrong. Or I could be going crazy from the last few weeks of school.

I personally think the truth is somewhere in the middle, in that there was leeway on both sides.

If I find the info, I will share that.

dude until resident evil gets one of those things like in the last direct where some announcer is like "resident evil is one of the most influential horror games in all of history" and it drags on for 20 minutes then maybe it has a connection

but for now i think its just capcom shilling you to overpay for RE4

just waiting until the people in the states get the RE7 port

It’s from sakurai’s twitter. He tweeted it after the vgas that Nintendo created a list and he chose from there

Listen, i’m not really even trying to say that 2 minute ad means that Resident Evil is automatically in Smash. I just think it might be wise to see what kinds of ads Nintendo puts out for particular series, especially 3rd parties.

Then again, it’s probably nothing.

Z25 Z25 See, it wasn’t that though. For whatever reason, I could have sworn that something was reported recently that Nintendo was choosing the picks.

I’m probably going crazy.

Remember when people thought DQ would be impossible to put in because Sakurai would have to go through Square, Sugiyama, Toriyama, Armor Project, and Bird Studio and than once Hero was announced it turns out Square Enix has sole ownership of the characters


Lmao

OK I found a synopsis that was posted in the Newcomer Speculation thread a few weeks ago. I highlighted the important part.

- He knows some are serious, but he doesn't think characters like Ironman and Goku will happen. (p27)
- DLC could say shortening the life span of its franchise. For Smash those characters could join in next time. But Smash is also not a title to think about continuation so doing his best every time. (p27)
- He wants Smash to be more casual and see non-competitive tournaments. Smash is a party game. But he also knows he is not the one to plan those. (p31)
- In Smash for days, there was restriction of a time span to offer updates and 3DS had a limited number of times to update. So Wii U version had to do the same. This is why Lucas, Roy, and Ryu released at the same time. (p33)
- If it's a one time purchase type of game, then it's more efficient for the company to start making the next game than keep updating. (p59)
- Updates are normal thing these days, but still they are voluntary service. (p59)
- He always thinks it's important to hear voices from people not speaking up. Real beginners don't speak up. (p61)
- The plan of Smash Ultimate completed December 16th 2015. It's a coincidence, but was the same day of the last Smash for direct. (p63)
- He is not thinking of doing Smash ballot again. It was used in Smash Ultimate's development very much. (p63)
- Beyonetta was the first pick among realisable characters. Above her, there were old veterans like Snake and other characters that were already tried negotiating but got rejected. (p63)
- He was making the plans for Smash Ultimate during the vacation he got after Smash for DLC was done. (p69)
- He treats character's individuality as its own game itself. All the unique systems certain characters has are all newly built just for him/her. (p69)
- It's already had proven true that joining as a character in Smash has advertising effect. (p99)
- He played through beta version of Zelda BotW to the end in 2 days during the Smash Ultimate development because he needed to know how new Link works before anyone else. (p125)
- He thinks games should not be created based on researched data alone and saying games only born to imitate other games are misfortune. Those data should be used for marketings or managements, not to plan new games. Old data are old. (p133)
- (Speaking of Super Nintendo World) 60 billion yen is enough to make every Smash game up to Ultimate and more with couple ten billion of changes. Not many Japanese games have budgets over 10 billion yen. (p139)
- He wish there were Smash Area in Super Nintendo World. (p139)
- Smash Ultimate's DLC wasn't a thing at the time around Famitsu column vol. 546 January 11th 2018, and it was planned without the developers will. (p165)
- DLC developments in general take time, so by the time of the release, the market will be much smaller than it used to be. DLC business is very risky than people might think. (p165)
- They are not something sell that much so it's difficult to gather staffs. Sometimes better to move on to the next game. (p165)
- He is not fond of the idea of the season pass. Its a little scary to buy without knowing the contents. (p165)
- Omega and battlefield for every stages take a lot more work than people might think. (p187)
- HAL Laboratory, Inc. is still on the credits list, but not involved in the development anymore. (p188)
- If you think about the completion of the development, bringing back everyone is not something you should do. (p189)
- The team was very careful of leaks at E3 2018. They didn't use printed promotional materials to avoid leaks. "Everyone is here" wasn't known even in Nintendo so the when it happened Nintendo staffs were also screaming. (p190)
- Smash tend to have characters from older series. But just old characters wouldn't make Smash worthy. If there is no new series, then the selection of the characters will be from the old series. (p199)
- People say "why they can't do this easy stuff?" but there is always a reason for that, One correction could cause another bug. (p205)
- The story idea of World of Light was already existed since Smash Brawl. (p208)
- He doesn't follow internets reaction so didn't know all the fan predictions. (p209)
- The idea of the Spirits is kind of the last resort. He is not sure he'll be making another gameplay like the Spirits. (p211)
- There was a plan to include a map like the Spirits to the Adventure Mode in Smash Melee. (p211)
- He said he took a long vacation, but actually he was just taking breaks as the calendar goes. He has a cat so he can't go for a long trip. (p214)
- By the time of the end of March 2019, the online win ratio of every character are very close to each other at the point he almost thinks better not to change anymore. (p216)
- There are metas, so just certain characters were strong at that time is not good enough reason to make them change. (p216)

Sakurai states that the Ultimate DLC was planned without the developers will. I'm not sure if this means that he did not have the final say on which characters were to be included. Was the whole "Nintendo made a list of character's, Sakurai choses them" a fabrication? I could of sworn that this was confirmation from Sakurai somewhere.

I think it implies that DLC in general might not have been planned and nintendo told him to include it

That highlighted part is weird considering it contradicts what I just posted.

- (Speaking of Super Nintendo World) 60 billion yen is enough to make every Smash game up to Ultimate and more with couple ten billion of changes. Not many Japanese games have budgets over 10 billion yen. (p139)
- He wish there were Smash Area in Super Nintendo World. (p139)
- Smash Ultimate's DLC wasn't a thing at the time around Famitsu column vol. 546 January 11th 2018, and it was planned without the developers will. (p165)
- DLC developments in general take time, so by the time of the release, the market will be much smaller than it used to be. DLC business is very risky than people might think. (p165)
- They are not something sell that much so it's difficult to gather staffs. Sometimes better to move on to the next game. (p165)
- He is not fond of the idea of the season pass. Its a little scary to buy without knowing the contents. (p165)
- Omega and battlefield for every stages take a lot more work than people might think. (p187)
- HAL Laboratory, Inc. is still on the credits list, but not involved in the development anymore. (p188)
- If you think about the completion of the development, bringing back everyone is not something you should do. (p189)
- The team was very careful of leaks at E3 2018. They didn't use printed promotional materials to avoid leaks. "Everyone is here" wasn't known even in Nintendo so the when it happened Nintendo staffs were also screaming. (p190)
- Smash tend to have characters from older series. But just old characters wouldn't make Smash worthy. If there is no new series, then the selection of the characters will be from the old series. (p199)
- People say "why they can't do this easy stuff?" but there is always a reason for that, One correction could cause another bug. (p205)
- The story idea of World of Light was already existed since Smash Brawl. (p208)
- He doesn't follow internets reaction so didn't know all the fan predictions. (p209)
- The idea of the Spirits is kind of the last resort. He is not sure he'll be making another gameplay like the Spirits. (p211)
- There was a plan to include a map like the Spirits to the Adventure Mode in Smash Melee. (p211)
- He said he took a long vacation, but actually he was just taking breaks as the calendar goes. He has a cat so he can't go for a long trip. (p214)
- By the time of the end of March 2019, the online win ratio of every character are very close to each other at the point he almost thinks better not to change anymore. (p216)
- There are metas, so just certain characters were strong at that time is not good enough reason to make them change. (p216)

Sakurai states that the Ultimate DLC was planned without the developers will. I'm not sure if this means that he did not have the final say on which characters were to be included. Was the whole "Nintendo made a list of character's, Sakurai choses them" a fabrication? I could of sworn that this was confirmation from Sakurai somewhere.
Yeah that might be what I was looking for. Still, I thought there was something where Sakurai was like, “For real though, I didn’t pick them.”

At this point i’m probably stretching it. That’s alright though.

I think what i’m most excited for with Banjo-Kazooie in Smash is the potential for remixes of the classic tunes. I’ve found myself listening to the different world themes.

Such a great soundtrack.

Remember when people thought DQ would be impossible to put in because Sakurai would have to go through Square, Sugiyama, Toriyama, Armor Project, and Bird Studio and than once Hero was announced it turns out Square Enix has sole ownership of the characters


Lmao
The real joke here is people thought Sugiyama had anything to do with the character in the first place

Keep in mind that there are more Capcom characters than just Pheonix. For all we know, it could be Sir Arthur.

Or someone from Darkstalkers. Though if it's Morrigan or Felica, she'll probably be covered up like Bayo, and idk if their fans want that.

Or it could be someone from RE or DMC.

Or Monster Hunter. Maybe.

It sounds like this thread is a wee bit...

The crown is dragon wings along with his color palette being a refernce to the typical western green dragon but i can see how people will think merman fins
I too thought he was fish themed. But the dragon theme makes sense.

Still, I think I'd use Eight and Erdrick the most.

So to beat avatar, marvel is putting avengers endgame back in theaters with a deleted scene, a tribute and a few other surprises at the end of the movie.

Are we gonna at least get a new post credits scene? Maybe a far from home tie in?

So, aside from Default and Pink, what do you guys think Banjo & Kazooie's colours will be?
My guess is the Multiplayer Colours from Banjo-Tooie along with other real bear colours like White/Polar, Black, and maybe even Panda (that'd be hilarious to me for some reason). Kazooie's alts are bit harder to guess if only because of how many different bird colours there are.

Them's fightin' words!
Nah, everyone's entitled to their opinion.
I love the floral patterned tights though (not leggings..leggings and tights/stockings aren't the same thing)
There's a Polar Bear named Boggy in the first game, so a color based off of him would make sense. And like you said, the multiplayer colors would work well as color swaps.

Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden, because "Ryu" translates to dragon.

Don't know why that was the first one that came to mind, but I figure I should be honest.
His sword's also called the Dragon Sword.

This is probably the most likely scene but it’s gonna be weird if it’s just texted on after the movie. They said all this stuff will take place during the credits

Hopefully we get some kind of teaser for phase 4, but I feel like they'd want to keep the movie feeling like it's the end of an era.
