I think you might be, "X character is getting a new game on a Nintendo console therefore it must be coming to smash too" is a tired argument that is wrong more often than not.
Game Awards is mostly a western event, I don't think Japan cares too much about it. IIRC it was Reggie's idea to use it to advertise the fighter's pass.
The CacoMallow post is very smiliar to the ESRB Leak from way back in the way that it had plenty of clear screenshots and even video footage, yet people would still go out of their way to try and disprove it, claiming that it was an elaborate Brawl mod or a photoshop job.

The biggest hit to the CacoMallow leak is the fact that Nintendo didn't even try to take down the footage that was uploaded, usually in the case of Smash; they pretty much take down most of the video footage of leaked content (picture are different though).
That was a joke, I'm not arguing that they're getting in because they're getting a new game. I'm just saying that I wouldn't be surprised if they got in over Geno at this point.
It's really not that farfetched of an idea, tbh.
Wasn't there a whole bunch of final boss leaks right before Ultimate that Nintendo didn't take down?
The CacoMallow leak is not worth much attention though.The CacoMallow post is very smiliar to the ESRB Leak from way back in the way that it had plenty of clear screenshots and even video footage, yet people would still go out of their way to try and disprove it, claiming that it was an elaborate Brawl mod or a photoshop job.

I'm surprised that people were trying to push it to begin with, seeing as we got Joker at last year's Game Awards.
The entire game had leaked by that point though.
Ehhhhhh.... Bravely just seems so incredibly far removed from what people want that I can't really fault people for not seeing much of a chance in it. I mean, Lara Croft, Geno, Sora, Sephiroth, etc. are all individually more wanted characters and you've still got more important Square Enix franchises like Mana, Chrono Trigger, and others to push even more against Bravely. So I definitely see people discounting Bravely on all of that.
Like, Persona is big for JRPGs, but people were comparing Joker to Master Chief and Kratos as "evidence" for TGA being only for big "western" characters.
Is that supposed to be the Video Game Genderswap version of "Is it Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?"
Disclaimer: This is going to be from the Nintendo CEOs' (specifically Furukawa) point of view.
One key difference: Nintendo hasn't taken down a single video on the Mii hat leak. That alone is a huge strike against it.The CacoMallow post is very smiliar to the ESRB Leak from way back in the way that it had plenty of clear screenshots and even video footage, yet people would still go out of their way to try and disprove it, claiming that it was an elaborate Brawl mod or a photoshop job.

There won't be a free character for buying the 2nd pass. Why would they do that?
Relationship so strong, it Follows them into Smash Brothers
Well, you could literally say that about Terry too. I literally saw 0 discussion about him until SNK was leaked. I even saw more discussion about Bravely back in the Smash 4 days, compared to SNK speculation pre-leak.
I think the lack of TGA announcement means that it'll be a character that the audience of TGA isn't familiar with. It could still be a Western character or an Eastern character, but I wouldn't put my bets on characters like Sora/Crash/2B that TGA audience likely knows as FP 5. It just hurts the chances of a Western character more then an Eastern one, because TGA audience likely knows about those characters more. This is just speculation though.
It goes beyond requests and more towards knowing the audience you're playing too. In no way does a character have to be heavily requested or even "make sense" in the traditional ways, but a B-tier franchise from a company that holds a ton of fan favorites, more recognizable franchises, and frankly IMO, more interesting options just seems like a comically out of touch move for Nintendo and Sakurai to pull. Terry wasn't talked about, but Terry is literally the face of a major Japanese gaming company that had a massive direct influence on Smash itself. Joker comes from quite possibly the most highly praised JRPG of the this decade with a direct influence on Smash and Sakurai.
The problem is that, for the Cacodemon leak to be a mod, whoever created it would have to be leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the modding community with literally no one knowing about them. It would already be impressive for someone to be so far ahead already if they were working with others, but being so far ahead in a vacuum is a whole 'nother thing. Yes, the community does generally believe someone could technically create a mod like that, but the best someone could do when trying to mod in a hat in the wake of this leak was a tiny model that admittedly looked pretty bad.
Bravely in Smash would be sick.
How is that a free character, then?
Except, and I mean no offense by this, but as we've seen countless times before; THE SMASH AUDIENCE IS FICKLE and there is no universally wanted character that will be loved by everybody. Like seriously it happened 2 days ago with a ton of people bandwagonning onto KOS-MOS, it'll happen again. If a Bravely character eventually starts looking likely, I guarantee you people will say "Oh, this franchise is awesome and I've wanted BLANK in Smash for a long time".
How would you rank The World Ends With You in terms of SE series? It currently only has one game, sure, but it’s very popular and has been ported like two, three times now? And people have been clamoring for a sequel since like ever
Just imagine the songs, oh my god
Bruh really? Too New? Really? The first Bravely came out in 2014. Is this just a long way of saying "Id rather have Geno" If so, just say it, no ones gonna bite your head off
I think as a series it is very cool and unique but for whatever reason SE doesn't want to do more with it even thought they totally could. I think it's one of the great SE series but SE seems to imply by their lack of action with it that they don't see it as a big deal.
Bruh new in terms of how many games have actually been released for the series to date. 5 years really isn't that long ago either compared to the other SE series I mentioned.
Trick question, Baboom still wins.
2012/2013 if you count japan/europe
That would be a game that I would be ok with getting just spirits and two tracks or so. That game changed life and opened my interests to a lot more RPGs.
well Japan has two years, 2012 for Flying Fairy and 2013 for For the Sequal so idk how many years old the game is for them tbh lol
