Yeah I really don't buy that. I feel like they'd consider it an honor that Sakurai wanted to put a character from a series they created in Smash. Especially when they've been happy to have Golden Sun content in Smash before.
I refuse to believe this leak on two fronts...
Isaac is Camelots poster child. For them to say they don't want Isaac is absurd. Then they would of fought for Waluigi or something.
"Hello i Am an insider in Nintendo, and I know that Electroplankton will be in smash Bros because Sakurai has a shrine dedicated to it. I know this because magic."
The reason there are so few music tracks is this.
Skull kid is like 50/50 now. He will not be an AT but play as something more. I feel like Zelda already has it's villian rep. 2 would be weird. However, atm I want everyone to get in. Isaac Geno and Skull Kid fans (The star sun and moon) . However I agree, I feel like he may be a boss. He can teleport around and such.
Gardevoir does have a fanbase and as someone who isn't THAT familiar with Pokemon (haven't played gens 3-5, probably couldn't remember all pokemon from gens 2, 6 and 7 either despite actually playing those games), even I've seen a fair amount of love for Gardevoir.
I always assumed it was licensing issues but how is it different from the rest of the third parties?
Yep! It's a win win for both Nintendo and Microsoft. It's just if Sakurai is willing to say yes
I've been saying something similar the last few days.
Nobou Uematsu.
Of course they have, it's pretty much free publicity. They wouldn't have to lift a finger for Nintendo to revive their dead franchise. That's the problem I'm seeing. It makes no sense for Nintendo to go out of their way for a character they can never have on their systems after this. Not sayin Banjo won't happen but from a business standpoint it doesn't make sense for Nintendo to use them.
Sure it does. Banjo in Smash would launch hype into the stratosphere and make them even more money, and build good will into the Smash brand going forward, much like additions like K. Rool and Ridley, not to mention the opportunity to make video game history by uniting competitors.
That's assuming Rare wants to revive Banjo anyways. They have plenty of opportunities to do so and yet they haven't done anything to indicate they are working on Banjo at all. Banjo getting into Smash is likely not going to change that.

No but Street Fighter falls under Capcom's umbrella along with Megaman and the Rathalos assist trophy. Plus Street Fighter has 31 songs compared to Final Fantasy's 2 so it's not like Capcom isn't being "generous"
Rest in piece, Stefan.
I've heard some people mention that a deal with Microsoft could lead to getting Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie for a potential N64 mini.
While your take isn't that of the majority, the fact people would have to look up Gothitelle doesn't help with that character being anything but a Poke Ball summon. Gardevoir is recognizable due to being the first "human-like" Pokémon that wasn't creepy as hell like Jynx or Mr. Mime. Plus, the only gimmick Gothitelle has is "it knows how the trainer will die", which is never explored in the games besides being a weird Pokedex description.
I mean, there are WAY better gen 5 pokemon to choose from anyway.
Metal Gear and Castlevania both have ATs, along with Bomberman. So I doubt the existence of other Capcom ATs has any bearing on whether Street Fighter has one.
It would never happen but having Cofagrigus or Reuniclus playable in Smash would be amazing.
Aw...
To play devil's advocate, Gothitelle does have it's fans, just not many, and it doesn't really have the mass appeal of Pokémon like Gardevoir.
I never said there were no scenarios of it happening. I'm simply saying from the outside looking in, with no knowledge of possible deals, Banjo and Kazooie don't seem likely to me. I hope I'm wrong, but my gut tells me to not assume he's a shoo-in.
Oof. Yeah. That sounds unlikely.
Infernape is literally my all time favorite Pokemon and he would be perfect in Smash. Best we can hope for someday is publicity with a DP remake.
Maaaan, Both Empoleon and Infernape are some my favorite starters.
Somebody mentioned it earlier but the "leak" mentions that the "This games winner is X" was changed to "X wins" because of the long Kirby names....
Not only that, but the leaker said they were playing the most recent build. The most recent build likely would have had this change, since it along with many other changes made were brought to attention during E3
I think they are still experimenting with the announcer lines because at E3 it was “(character) wins!” Perhaps victory animations are too fast for the old style.
