If that happens, don't expect one-hit KOs and invincibility when you wear it XD That wouldn't be fair now would it?
I'm fairly certain this is just a random tweet sent out that wants us to think on it as possibly being Smash-related, when in reality there's nothing to it. Don't take the bait.
I thought so. They’re hyping us up for nothing.
So I've been trying to look into this theory further, and I think I've got it figured out.
I'm wondering if we should be concerned about this in regards to Crash making it... Gah... I just want E3 to be over with already!
I fail to see why this would have any impact on Smash tbh. It's like thinking whatever microsoft or square enix did back in 2019's presentations would've had any impact on banjo or hero getting in regardless. Smash is celebrating gaming on their own, even despite if the characters they include are getting new games or not as we already saw with some inclusions, heh.
I suppose it just makes sense to me that a company would want to be part of an event where their character was being shown off. I have to wonder if a company has ever NOT been present during an E3 where Smash adds their character.
I wish I could say the same
Anyone who is rooting for Crash is paranoid. And this paranoia gone 20 years for me
Well let me put it like this. The characters were negotiated back when obviously Pass 2 was decided, years ago. The order of the characters doesn't change, it goes as planned, specially since they are working on 3 characters at the same time all the time and they gotta release them as they have them ready, there really is no luxury of halting one character's development and rushing another, it's not even realistic to think they would do that. So say Crash is next but for some current situation Activision had to retire from going to E3 due to whatever reasons they encountered… would that mean or change anything for Crash's reveal? The answer is "not really", and it's not like they could do anything else about it since E3 is only once a year and we are definitely not getting CP11 at the game awards, it will happen way earlier than that. So really, it doesn't matter if the company that owns the character is around the event where the character is revealed. That's how I see it anyways. It seems like an unnecessary worry to me. Smash reveals are not dependent of anyone else but Nintendo and Sakurai's team themselves.
I don't think there really IS anything that actually, directly, points to Crash possibly coming to Smash besides that "5 Year Plan"
I'm probably gonna get some flack for this, but I feel like Crash being an icon really is the only thing going for him at this point. Don't get me wrong, that's still a pretty big thing, but... after what happened with TFB, I'm not too sure if he's gonna have the "relevancy" card for much longer.
TBF, he would've been decided on back in 2019, way before the whole TFB debacle. CTR:NF was still going pretty strong around that time.
That and the N. Sane Trilogy/Nitro Fuel designs likely would've been what Sakurai and the development team likely used since the original trilogy is by far the most iconic depiction of Crash and Crash 4 was still in development
Actually I'd argue that if Crash is joining, it'll be his Crash 4 design they use. Since the 90's and up until Crash Nitro Fueled, Crash has always had a difference in design between Japan and America, even though it was never reflected in-game and was only relegated to box art.
Again, I doubt that. The designs you show were only for the box artwork of the games, the actual in game graphics didn't change for Crash. That, and there would've been issues if Crash 4 ended up doing poorly with audiences, especially since redesigns like this and Crash of the Titans especially didn't go over well
Quick question: how good is my fantasy roster as picking characters people would recognize?
Makes sense, the DMC 5 leak had a similar situation when it got most of the stuff right but the Dante in smash part was completely false.
