Not sure if this has been posted already, but a link from CGE takes you to this (https://e3expo.com/participating-companies) and this link says " Below is a list of the major video game industry and business partners you need to see while you’re at E3. Please continue to refer to this list as it is continually updated." And the bottom of the previous mentioned link has this refer to image at the bottom of the link. But at this point, I would rather hear from Activision themselves on whether or not they will actually be there or not.

Oh and daily reminder that even if their not there, doesn't mean it ruins the chance of Crash to Smash if that were to be announced there :)

Personally, I'm still not ruling out the possibility of Activision attending E3 this year, and I see absolutely no reason at all for why they wouldn't.
Keep in mind, this year is Crash's 25th anniversary and E3 seems like the absolute best time to announce the fun "happenings" they have planned for this year.
Also, don't forget this: https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/04/square_enix_confirms_plans_for_e3_2021
Square Enix confirmed that they would be attending long after other companies have already confirmed, and I'm sure some companies, including Activision, have yet to confirm this as well, so Activision attending E3 is still a possibility and in my opinion, pretty likely.

And even if Activision doesn't show up, for whatever reason, that doesn't make Crash any less likely to be revealed at E3, since Activision doesn't really need to be their for the reveal. Personally, I wouldn't worry too much.

I just looked it up, it turns out this is part of Domino's plan to bring back the Noid after... the controversy.


Though now I can't tell if he's coming as a playable character or a boss...

If he actually shot someone, yeah, it wouldn't be funny. But given no one was hurt, I'm more than okay laughing about what a stupid reason that is to take people hostage. And this crazy guy mad a pizza mascot took his name... Has the hostages cook him pizzas. That's comedy you can't make up.

You…never heard of the Noid till now? Not even that one incident where a dude thought Domino’s stole his name for the mascot?

I might have seen him referenced somewhere, but I wouldn't have known who he was. I never knew about any of this until now.

Wha...? No it's not. That nut job held people hostage. Gun in hand.

Yea, it was a horrible thing, but keep in mind that the guy was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Clearly he wasn't being properly treated for his mental health issues. Fortunately no one got hurt.

He's been in a videogame and the only real rule holding him back is the region centric and popularity soft rules.

Also, he got a (totally legit) sequel in Yo! Noid 2: Enter the Void which is a real slapper of a game.

Yeah, I know he's beein in a video game. I just don't see him being in a game like Smash, either way.

"The Noid" was just barely a little bit before my time, (Late 80's- Very Early 90's)(Born in 1993) But I'm aware of who he was as he was and advertising campaign for "Domino's Pizza" and somewhat kind of a mascot too.

While I do remember him being referenced once in a while by Domino's in somewhat more recent years, I mainly remember him brought up in pop culture and TV shows like "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy".


(Warning: Funny, But somewhat Violent)

I agree, It sounds like a scene out of an adult cartoon like "The Simpsons", "Family Guy" or "South Park"

I actually ordered some Domino's earlier today, after reading that tweet. It made me hungry for some of their pizza.

Im more of a Papa Johns and Pizza Pizza guy myself, but it's interesting to see the Noid come back in an official capacity.

Funny that he crosses over with Crash of all characters, as Crash was part of Pizza Hut promotions in his heyday.

(im just sad the likes of the Noid and Bubsy came back before Golden Sun)

I've been out of the loop lately with school and all

So what's been popping? Any news worthy for Crash making Smash? Or who the new DLC fighters are?
