Do you take Imran seriously? He's only had inside knowledge on Min Min since the start of Fighters Pass 2. Also that 5chan leak was from all the way back in 2018, and it had correct info on Hero, Steve and Sephiroth way back then, long before Imran even came into the picture...
Right. If they did end up being echoes of each other, on one hand, fans are happy they're in the game; on the other, fans are upset because one, the other, or both of them aren't portrayed correctly.
Wait that leak was part of a bigger leak that was back in 2018???
I don't mind Ryu Hayabusa, he is cool ( I love my ninjas lol) , but after what happened to Travis and MH, I wouldn't be surprised if he just gets a mii costume to promote the sigma games in the end. I just keep low expectations on his potential inclusion, because it could easily end in that way as well.
I mean, he has an opinion, and he's allowed to share it. It's better and, in this case, easy enough to pick apart the argument instead.
Welcome to the Smash fandom! Where anyone and everyone wants someone different than you!
Well, there are other JRPGs besides Tales that could use the anime style like Ys, but fair point
Yuri Lowell!! or Lloyd too, I guess he'd work well for that as well
Yeah, I don't know the full story, but I've hear they aren't the most credible "leaker" out there. Well, that and I'm just really hesitant about buying into leakers in general.
The only thing they got right "a few times" were dates at best. NEVER contents. So yeah... lol
Support threads are not made to **** on people for having different opinions.
Why change the list of characters you want to your predictions list? You can still want Yuri and Shantae and Spyro even if you don't think they're likely to get inSo I thought I'd narrow down my most-wanted fighters to just 3 now that we're approaching the end of Smash Ultimate's DLC. Unfortunately, I don't think Yuri Lowell, Shantae and Spyro are very likely to get into the game at this point, so I decided to go with just 3 characters now. One is a more personal want, while the other 2 are characters I like, who also have a good shot of getting in to Ultimate, I feel. And they are:
Crash Bandicoot
Lloyd Irving
Ryu Hayabusa
Mostly, I didn't want to divide my time between a lot of forums at the same time anymore. Up until a while ago I was following the pages of Crash, Ryu, Lloyd, Shantae, Yuri, Spyro, plus other pages for characters I gave up on a while ago all at once, and I was just starting to get a little burned out from trying to follow the speculation circles around all of them. So I decided to go with just Crash, Ryu and Lloyd as a way to not only follow who I feel are the most likely characters coming, but also to not strain myself so much. If that makes sense...
Because it's only about characters that appeared in arcade games
Then why is Katamari in his taunt?
It probably wasn't that hard to make a sprite for Katamari, to be fair. Also Katamari's remaster came out the same day as Smash Ultimate (Dec. 7th, 2018), so maybe the Prince of All Cosmos was added to Namco Roulette to promote or reference that game.
Disregard this message guys, I've decided to change my mind on only supporting 3 characters for Ultimate. I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I've been feeling pretty indecisive about things in regards to Smash speculation. I apologize for the trouble.So I thought I'd narrow down my most-wanted fighters to just 3 now that we're approaching the end of Smash Ultimate's DLC.

It's more of the fact that the Prince from Katamari had an existing sprite to use for that purpose. The closest equivalent Lloyd has is maybe his sprite from Nakiri Dungeon (GBA crossover game)? Not really the same kind of bit-age as the rest though.
To be fair, we also have Don-Chan's high-quality sprite just vibin' there
In that case, it makes me wonder why Lloyd wasn't a part of Namco Roulette from the beginning. I know they're all from Namco arcade games and Lloyd is a JRPG character, but still.
Yeah, even if Lloyd isn't in the pipeline, it's still a noticeable oddity, especially since Tales is the only third-party Mii series to not have any representation in SSBU. You could say it's just for arcade characters, but Katamari Demacy didn't originate as one (Nor did Valkyrie, for that matter, but apparently the arcade games are more well-known). You could point to the lack of simplistic 8-bit sprite, but there's a couple sprites in there that don't fit that bill either. I'm kinda hoping Sakurai releases a big book of all his thought processes and decisions regarding SSBU so we can find answers for stuff like this.
Maybe he could do that. Especially if he's considering an early retirement like he stated in his Famitsu article this week once Fighter Pass 2 finishes up. He also said that he's going to stop writing his weekly Famitsu articles some time this year after 18 years too.
He actually didn't say he was planning an early retirement. That was a result of an incomplete translation
This is why I don't rely on pushdustin's translations, they are 90% of the times incomplete or inaccurate until a few more hours or a day or so.
Mistranslation or not. If Sakurai's really gonna stop writing his Famitsu columns after 18 years, then that might be sign that he may actually be getting close to hanging it up soon.
I'm pretty sure Sakurai has said Fighters Pass Vo. 2 would be it for Ultimate DLC a lot more than just twice, but I agree nonetheless. Smash fans just don't wanna hear it unfortunately.
Yeah that's what I meant with the Pyra time he said it, that was his second time saying this was the last DLC. I'm satisfied with a bunch of things we already got, I just hope 2nd pass is worth more than just ONE character for me, because so far I have only got excited for one haha (sephy).
As far as the DLC characters go, for me anyway, I loved all of Fighter Pass 1. Banjo, Joker and Byleth in particular were the highlights of FP1, with Hero and Terry being really cool too.
Pass 1 was pretty good indeed, it was a 4/5 for me.
In fairness, at least Piranha Plant was free (via certain means anyway). So even though I'm not a fan of Plant, I can't be too upset since it didn't cost me anything to get it.
