Smash Infinite Development Team,
We are currently in the last phase of our development period. We will be releasing our final Smash Infinite Direct which is set to air on November 12th, 20XX. This Direct will feature newcomers, changes to veterans, new and old stages, assist trophies, items, pokemon, game modes, Wishing Stars and Smash Dungeon content, SmashSpace collectables, and will round off our music and spirit submissions! This is really the end game for us all! Once we conclude our development, we will launch Smash Infinite and proceed with our DLC development period which should look very different by comparison. I sifted our focus several times from "meat and potatoes content" like characters and stages to more "side dishes content" like Wishing Stars chapters and celebrity appearances. I still intend to do some of these fun little side-jobs but our focus hear on out is to get the vital and important content developed and set by this coming November (irl time) which coincides with Infinite timeline.
SO, with that being said, we are officially working on the
Super Smash Bros. Infinite Final Direct Presentation. This is a whopping one hour and ten minute presentation full of new content.
So...to start us off...the Newcomer Submission period
Job #161: Submit a First-Party Character who has been a Highly Requested Character in Speculation since the Brawl Days
It's always great when the Smash teams adds favorites like Sonic, Mega Man, Ridley, King K. Rool, and Banjo into the game. Since Infinite started, we added some fan favorites such as Crash, Waluigi, and Dixie Kong. We aim for one of our final characters to be within this same group. We will be submitting a character who has been present in Smash speculation since the Brawl days and has been a highly requested character/discussed character but yet missed both Smash 4 and Ultimate. Infinite is their time to shine! Characters that do not fit this criteria will be removed and the submitter must rethink their replacement submission. In order to get a feel who has been requested since Brawl, I encourage you to ask the DLC Speculation Thread for first party characters who have been requested but have yet to appear. You may also discuss possible characters here in the thread or on discord.
Prior to submissions, we will have a discussion period so people can get an idea of what characters have been largely speculated since Brawl. From tomorrow, we will begin our submission period.
One particular character that can't be overlooked is Geno and, due to his position as both a Nintendo and Square IP,
we will be allowing Geno. We will figure out the particulars if he for sure snags the vote.
The following series are uneligible for characters:
Zelda
Kirby
Kid Icarus
Kirby
Pokemon
Wario
Astral Chain
Golden Sun
Style Saavy
Rhythm Heaven
Mysterious Castle Murasame
We will be allowing Donkey Kong submissions as Dixie is an Echo. Also, based on precedents, we will be allowing for a second Mario rep alongside Waluigi.
What are some discussion points?
Who are some characters requested since Brawl?
Do they actually warrant inclusion?
What could the bring to Smash?
Reasons why they are so requested?
With that out of the way,
LET THE DISCUSSION ROUND BEGIN! We will start back up in about 12 hours or so.
