Will E3 2021 be another Double Reveal?
Idk. Nintendo had to have known that FP2 would do well. I doubt DLC would ever NOT do well unless a new Smash came out. The point is, it has to stop sometime.
Possibly, but if they're smart they'll spread it out more if there are really only 3 characters left.
see that's just how they worded it. "currently no plans". as you know, plans are subject to change. its not like he said "this IS the final pass no ifs or buts"
Right, but my point is that if there are "currently no plans" then there's no one being negotiated for at the moment. It would likely take too long to negotiate for anyone at this point to line up with Ultimate DLC. I could be wrong of course. Maybe Steve's five year negotiation process was a massive outlier. I wouldn't be surprised if the average 3rd party character takes at least a couple of years though.
Given that plans can change later, we might get a fighters pass 3 or 4.
Personally, I wouldn't get my hopes up, especially about a FP4. I'm not going to say it's impossible though.
He also once said Mewtwo was the only DLC Smash 4 would ever get so it's not like he has ever changed his mind on things.
Can I get a source on the Mewtwo thing? I hear everyone and their mom bring it up but no link to it
I'm no expert, but I don't see how that could be a hardware issue. It definitely sounds like a software thing... could be a very easy fix they just haven't bothered with because you can't have that many characters in the unmodded game.
I do tend to be wary when he says anything is "final", especially given that in the context of FP2 he only brought it up on his Famitsu column and not his video presentations. In this case, it should be a "true until further notice" kind of thing.
It's likely that in this case it would be more a case of the passes doing far better sales than even they expected, when I've seen many fans doubt that Ultimate would get more after the first pass or even get anything after the base game. So it's possible that the programming wasn't taken into account for such a contingency.
Sure. Seriously, why did the Geno thread get locked? It wasn't bad.
I don't wanna sound 2 conspiratorial but with the way it was so heavily moderated, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people who hard core hate him are in a mod position.
Depending on how it is handled. It shouldn't be too RNG.
91 actually
Yeah, though all we can really do is wait and see before we can tell if that's truly the case, while we wade through a sea of text "leaks" for most of next year.
I mean to be fair, most things Sakurai says are true...for a time. Not saying the man is a liar, he obviously is not. It is just that things change over time. Characters like Villager, Ridley, and the Miis all are characters that he considered at one point impossible. Mewtwo was the only planned DLC for 4. Now, does this mean that he is telling a lie for this being the last pass? Well, we can guess when that interview was done, there were likely no solid, concrete plans for FP2, leaving it up in the air. With how well Japan handled Covid and how much money Smash is making, who knows. All we gotta do is wait and see.
got a source for this?
Probably. I imagine if they want the game to have more exposure and want to continue making money off of it, then they'd put it on there.
Well, Michael said that more than 90 gives the game crash.
FTFY
I would prefer the jetpack just to avoid having another 3rd party mascot type character with a spring recovery.
I was thinking the Rocket Jump from N. Tranced, mixed in with a TNT crate.
In my mind, I feel like the fruit bazooka is a pretty no brainer side special and that's why I'd avoid that personally. For variety's sake

Masahiro Sakurai Explains Why Mewtwo Isn't Paid DLC in Smash Bros.
Mewtwo intended as an "experiment", no paid DLC in development
Clearly leaves the door open while still telling the truth...
Aaaaand boom there it is
I hope it’s an up arrow crate that lingers personally. Could see a lot of utility.
Methinks it's a case of long-term planning, seeing as his revival didn't start until 2017.
Good eye! I missed that in the list of coincidental announcements occurring around the same time as Crash ones.
revealed as the first fighter of FP1. and revealed as the next two fighters of FP1. revealed as the first fighter of FP2. and 's reveals, it's starting to become a pattern. The only way to know for sure is if we hear about the next Ultimate fighter around the time On the Run launches on March 25 2021.
