I would hope so. Personally, I'm expecting Isaac to break free, Shantae to graduate to second place, and Geno to remain where he is.Well, they might pass us because we'll have graduated from newcomer speculation soon enough

It's fine man, I understand. It's your decision to do what you want and I respect that.I've probably answered this question more times than I care to count at this point, so forgive my bluntness, but no, I won't be going back to Rate Their Chances. I honestly wish I had just stopped after Season 1, once the base-roster was released, because predicting DLC fighters just felt like milking the series for all that it was worth.
I can't, in good conscience, release any more episodes when I don't have the motivation, drive or desire to research the current climate/trends in the Smash Community. There are tons of other creators who are doing their own Rate Their Chances variants, so I'd suggest checking their content out if you're looking for something to pass the time in the drought.
I'm just here for Isaac now, just like I was when I made my first Isaac video.
I'm new here as well, so I wouldn't really know. I've mostly planned out a moveset and that's about it. That being said, Venus Lighthouse seems to be the most iconic Golden Sun location.So! I'm sure this has been brought up at several points throughout the long history of the thread, but for the sake of conversation and since I'm new around here, I was curious: Assuming Isaac made it into Smash, where would you like his stage to take place, and what would you want it to include if you had the option to do whatever (i.e. hazards, cameos, transformations, ect).
I would want Venus Lighthouse as the stage.So!

I feel the obvious answer is the Venus Lighthouse, but for me, the best thing to do stage wise is to have the stage be the Lemurian Ship with the Wings of Anemos attached.So!

To be fair, the devs went through the trouble of modelling all ~17 or so fighters for the King of Fighters Stadium. I wouldn't doubt that we'd get some cameos with Isaac.I would want Venus Lighthouse as the stage.
I'd also like to see Saturos & Menardi appear as bosses/stage hazards who attack separately at first but eventually combine into Fusion Dragon.
Ideally I'd also like to see cameos for other party members (Garet, Mia, Ivan, Jenna, Sheba, Piers and Felix, if he's not an alt costume) and also Kraden/Alex. I say ideally because I doubt they'd go to that much trouble modelling all of those characters for cameos....unless they were able to take them directly from the Golden Sun remakes.
Maybe also have the four different djinn types fly around in the background (like the jinjos on Spiral Mountain)
Also this is a small thing but I think it would be neat if we could see Vale and Mt. Aleph in the background. Since the stage is set on a lighthouse it would be a good opportunity to have some locations appear in the background as cameos. (Maybe they could have Kolima Forest appear somewhere too.....not sure how close Kolima is to Venus Lighthouse)
One reason I prefer the idea of Venus Lighthouse is because I think Saturos/Menardi appearing as a boss is more likely if it's just Venus Lighthouse.I feel the obvious answer is the Venus Lighthouse, but for me, the best thing to do stage wise is to have the stage be the Lemurian Ship with the Wings of Anemos attached.
That way you can have the ship flying around and it can get close to the different lighthouses and depending on which lighthouse, certain elemental hazards can appear. And if I’m remembering correctly, the ship couldn’t constantly fly as the group’s Psynergy kept it in the air. So I think it would be cool for the ship to rest in the Karagol Sea. That way there can be a stage boss which would of course be the Kraken boss.
That does seem like a bit much for a DLC fighter but it’s what I would like lol. It’s most likely gonna be just Venus Lighthouse if Isaac makes it in.
True. I wasn’t really thinking about them when I quickly came up with my idea.One reason I prefer the idea of Venus Lighthouse is because I think Saturos/Menardi appearing as a boss is more likely if it's just Venus Lighthouse.
Whereas if it's a stage moving from lighthouse to lighthouse we probably won't get that. (and I really would love to see Saturos and Menardi as stage bosses....and I think they would be way more iconic as bosses than the kraken would be.)
It does, I think it would be a great option!I'm new here as well, so I wouldn't really know. I've mostly planned out a moveset and that's about it. That being said, Venus Lighthouse seems to be the most iconic Golden Sun location.
I agree with Sharklord that I think there's a chance we could see plenty of cameos, they've certainly been willing to do it before. Those ideas sound very cool, though! I'd love to see Saturos and Menardi as hazards or bosses or what have you.I would want Venus Lighthouse as the stage.

Very unique! I might actually prefer this over just the Venus Lighthouse itself. I'm not usually a big fan of the rail stages, or transforming ones, but if it'd let me see more Golden Sun locations in that sweet sweet HD, then I'm all for it!I feel the obvious answer is the Venus Lighthouse, but for me, the best thing to do stage wise is to have the stage be the Lemurian Ship with the Wings of Anemos attached.

Though we didn't get a single ARMS fighter for the ARMS stage, so budget might be an issue for this Pass.To be fair, the devs went through the trouble of modelling all ~17 or so fighters for the King of Fighters Stadium. I wouldn't doubt that we'd get some cameos with Isaac.
To be fair, Min Min took extra time to complete. They might have thought the animations would be too hard to deal with, or maybe Sakurai just felt like a stage that didn't have cameos, or maybe Min Min's pack was just the one to operate on a lower budget.Though we didn't get a single ARMS fighter for the ARMS stage, so budget might be an issue for this Pass.
I never got into Arms so I’m not sure how they handled the other characters during fights. However I have played King Of Fighters and normally a few of the other playable characters are hanging out in the background or watching you fight. So it makes a lot of sense for Sakurai’s team to do that for Terry’s stage. So I don’t think budget played a role in that not being the case for Arms.Though we didn't get a single ARMS fighter for the ARMS stage, so budget might be an issue for this Pass.
I don't think budget had anything to do with the lack of ARMS fighters on the ARMS stage. Min Min outright reuses her ARMS model for Smash, so they could have easily done the same for background fightersThough we didn't get a single ARMS fighter for the ARMS stage, so budget might be an issue for this Pass.
And if we're being technical, Yggdrasil's Altar only has cameos from Dragon Quest monsters, with none of the party members from any installment appearing, which contrasts with fellow JRPG characters Joker and Byleth. It seems like a lack of character cameos is a stylistic choice.I think the reason that ARMS fighters don't appear is because they wouldn't normally appear in the background of an ARMS match, whereas in KoF you can see other characters in the background frequently. Given the theme of cameos on DLC stages, Min Min seems to be the exception, not the rule.
While I think Venus Lighthouse is the most obvious/likely choice for a stage, I've always thought the Elemental Star Chamber would be a neat little concept. It's not exactly "iconic" unless you've played the first Golden Sun game, which is why I'm 99% sure it wouldn't be Golden Sun's stage, but the idea of this chamber with moving platforms, the four elemental stars, the calm cavern lake beneath which could then turn to magma & lava, like in the games, as a stage hazard, along with a potential remix of the elemental star theme.So!

Venus Lighthouse, no doubt. For cameos, maybe the party members, Krayden, and Alex. It would be cool if there were floating platforms working as an elevator.So!

That's true, technically only Slime, Liquid Metal Slime, and Tockles cameo on the DQ stage, with the fake treasure chests (forgot what they're called) being a stage hazard. I consider those to still be cameos, but I agree, if a stage doesn't have cameos, it's a stylistic choice.And if we're being technical, Yggdrasil's Altar only has cameos from Dragon Quest monsters, with none of the party members from any installment appearing, which contrasts with fellow JRPG characters Joker and Byleth.

Me too, especially if the stage a "Lighthouse Tour" like some have suggested. My number 1 most desired remix is Venus Lighthouse on its own, but a Lighthouse Medley would be sick.I’d like to see a medley of all the lighthouse themes.
And here we see Masahiro Sakurai training to be the legendary Massive Hero Soccer Guy.

Well, if the monsters are counted as cameos, I guess we could count the ARMS fighters on the billboards, given Sakurai went out of his way to point them out too. They're still cameos, but not to the same level as the other DLC stages.That's true, technically only Slime, Liquid Metal Slime, and Tockles cameo on the DQ stage, with the fake treasure chests (forgot what they're called) being a stage hazard.

Venus Lighthouse is probably the most recognizable/emblematic but I think a stage that rotates between all the elemental lighthouses would be better (kinda like how Garreg Mach works) since it would display more of the world. If I were to choose tho, Lemurian Ship would be my go to because they could include numerous locations in the backgroundSo!

Ah, so it has the same layout but changes design based on the song playing? That could be interesting.Stop me if y'all have heard this one before, but how about like... a generic lighthouse stage? They all have more or less the same layout up top. Different backgrounds/ aesthetics depending on which lighthouse you're at, with the corresponding colored beacon being lit. We already have a similar situation with the Persona stage.
I don't think the design would even necessarily have to change based on the music being used (though it would be interesting to see how the music would get correlated to each lighthouse). It could just be randomly set at the beginning of each match. Though if we WERE to get a lighthouse stage that shifts between each element, personally I'd want each lighthouse variant to have its own hazards to avoid, kinda like the Pokemon Stadiums. Jupiter Lighthouse could have strong winds trying to blow fighters off the top, Venus could have much more frequent quakes that tear the lighthouse apart (or even have the Fusion Dragon show up), Mercury could have water spill forth from the aerie that simultaneously tries to wash you off the stage while also healing you when you stand in it, and Mars could of course have fire going off everywhere (if not bring in the Doom Dragon).Ah, so it has the same layout but changes design based on the song playing? That could be interesting.
Its no problem at all, nice to have you on boardAlso hello all, I am new to these boards but have been a longtime Smash fan and a huge supporter of Isaac getting into Smash since pre-Brawl... and have been kinda following the conversation here for a while until finally getting an account today. I hope that's not too weird.
That's very possible, I'm pretty sure neither Byleth or Min Min were leaked (publicly, at least) and it's most likely because they don't need to contact other companies for legal rights and the such.Is there a possibility that due to a lack of actual credible rumours regarding the identity of FP7, it could be a first-party character?
I would only jump to the conclusion within the week of the presentation tbh. If by the day before it airs it hasnt been leaked or heavily teased by someone, then the chances for a 1rst party are high. But there is always the chance that by some miracle it is a third party that didn't leak, like how terry almost was if it wasn't for nintendo's own screw up.Is there a possibility that due to a lack of actual credible rumours regarding the identity of FP7, it could be a first-party character?
There was a series of Tweets that leaked her by having the first letter of each one be M, I, N, M, I, and N respectively.Min Min were leaked
For reference, it's this:There was a series of Tweets that leaked her by having the first letter of each one be M, I, N, M, I, and N respectively.
