Time for one of us to edit it then lo

lIf we get another Kirby anime, I want BDee and Galacta Knight in it
The Dee would be in, assuredly. (Edit: Honestly would be an easy replacement for the Waddle Doo captain)
Galacta Knight I could see as an "Arc Villain."
What'd be more interesting is IF they tried to incorporate Magalor... since he appears to be one of Japan's most liked Kirby characters.

Edit: AND IF YOU SAY IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.
THEY BROUGHT IT BACK ON THE 3DS.
Fuuuuuun Fact
1) Dedede, despite recent appearences GBA onward, doesn't have the undershirt/pants/whatever it is in the model used. 100% geniune Penguin under that belly-stripe-thing.
2) The incredibly "WHAT?" transformation used in this video was actually used in one of Kirby Mass Attack's minigames.
As was a bunch of other stuff from the show.
Including Super Macho Man.

I.E. the Kid-Friendly equivelant of Bayonetta but not exactly

You didn't come from the future to tell us if he is going to happen or not in the next smash game.
No he didn't. Instead he has this thing called COMMON SENSE. As it stands Geno isn't going to happen. Focus on getting him in something else like a Mario spin-off first then we'll talk about Geno even having a semblance of a chance for Smash.

Reminder...

Not everything bad about fanbases...

Doesn't exist in the staff of the product.
You think this is bad? Believe me, I've seen worse **** in certain cartoons. And this heavy jab at otaku is child's play in comparison.

May I remind you of Bikini Robotnik from the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog? And then there's the infamous car wash scene between Peter Griffin and Homer Simpson in the Simpsons Guy crossover. Try watching that and not cringe a single time.

Jesus ****ing christ NOA, just confirm whether or not Amie got cut, I see a news site post an article 'confirming' the cut, because a third party can confirm, and a different third party saying 'It's got more data blocks and 70% VA work is Amie, so it's staying'

That only came about because of the relationship between SE and Nintendo.
And comparing a First Party to a Third Party never works out. Even then, Isaac, like Geno, is dead. But he can at least say he's had a new role in the past few years.
When's Golden Sun 4?!

So did Lloyd Irving.
The difference being that Lloyd fans can say that he has been in a game as more than a cameo in the past 19 years.

^And this^

No one supports Lloyd Irving

Well, y'know... No one that matters

Geno fans will probably always get crapped on and any bone he's thrown will be dismissed as a fluke.

"Geno's never going to have any sort of representation in a Smash game."

Only Square Enix character and only Mario character aside from Toad to get a full blown DLC costume.

"Ha ha! I can't wait for all the Geno fans to have a meltdown over this!"

Literally takes the news better than every other deconfirmed character fanbase.

I suppose it's worth noting that the character is almost 20 years old and hasn't had a notable appearance since but people still care about him. Not a lot of other characters can make similar claims. I have my doubts he'll ever be playable too but I've learned to never completely count the character out.

This! This so much!

Look at how many people dismissed Corrin and Bayonetta...

Besides being the 2nd most requested Bamco character?
And one that can claim as a face of a series?
Both characters are incredibly unlikely and throwing "BUT THEY GOT A MII COSTUME" is straw grasping evidence.
Because who is legitimately expecting Chrom, Black Knight, Gilgamesh (The Bamco one) or Flying Man?

I think the lack of meltdowns from Geno fans was because everyone pretty much made peace that Geno being in Smash would be a miracle. As in they're used to it. If this was during the Brawl times and there was somehow a Geno costume for Miis (pretend they're in Brawl ok)... Man that would not go well with the fans I'd imagine.

What does my post add to the discussion? Probably nothing. Just an observation.

Here we go with this again.

It's not the end of the world if a morbidly obese character crossdreses for comedy. Family Guy is a show that's known for pushing the limits for shock value and the scene completely fits. I can name 5 scenes from the same show ever worse than that. ***** Brian's Death, Evil Stewie's Massacre, the shroom scene from Seahorshe Shell Party, everything involving Herbert, and Peter's many **** incidents.

And one more thing, Bikini Robotnik is the least of AoStH's problems and the writers did it on purpose to make him America's sexiest fat man. Have problem with it? Then complain to the creators just like the Ed, Edd, & Eddy fans did for the Ho Yay in the later seasons.

To be fair, he didn't say that they were the worst things out of them. But at the same time I kind of don't see why that matters? He brought them up as an example, I don't see how that warrants that kind of reaction.

I advocated against Geno with common sense and look at that, he was turned into a Mii costume.

I agree that impossible is a stretch now, but "extremely unlikely" is still valid.

I keep remembering some old cartoon but I for the life of me can't remember the name, Does anyone know an old cartoon that fits this description? A village with people who are only happy start singing. Then they get attacked by people who are only sad, to which they have a war, with the happy village making everyone happy after defeating the sad village, with one guy saying 'I don't wanna be happy, I wanna be sad!' before converting and then they start singing again

Geno never was on my radar for interesting characters (maybe because I played Super Mario RPG pretty late in my life) but I can see why other might like him.

But if I want Geno I'll just stick with Super Smash Bros. Crusade.

Pretty much this.

The less likely you are to get content, the more likely appearing in a deconfirmed role will be seen as a positive


EX when Viridi got a mii costume I flipped the **** out. :p

Sonic Underground? I dunno...

In regards to Geno, I've been supporting the character in Smash since 2002 and, since then, the character has remained relevant if only for the fact that he's still talked about and still consistently makes publicized top ten lists. It seems like every 5 years or so you'll have an interview from a major gaming site where a grownass man like me will ask a developer when he'll pop up again (and Mallow too) and, again, I feel like that says a lot when you have people closing in on their 30's and still want the character to comeback in some capacity. He's kind of a perpetual underdog at this point and I don't think it'll be too long before people begin to draw parallels between him and the likes of K. Rool and Isaac.

Well I think I found your answer.
