Given from what I'm finding out, Sakurai really loves Dragon Quest. He would go that extra mile if he could start it. Plus I don't think a staff is going to hurt DQ 5's hero. If he can do it for Koopalings, he can do it for DQ, even if height differences might be a challenge. Plus there's debate on whether we'll be getting the chibi version like in the official artwork or the more modern design.This so much!
I mean, I get why some people don't like it. Especially when it comes to DQ5 protag, mostly due to his artwork having him wielding a staff. I could see several workarounds yo this.
1) Use the staff as a sword. This didn't stop Mii Swordfighters dressed as Viridi, Lip, Magician, etc.
2) Make him use a sword, but his staff is strapped to his back.
3) Just ignore the staff, or have it when he uses an actual possible staff move (like an aerial or something).
Also, having each hero have a different sword from each DQ game would be amazing.
But that would be absolutely pushing it. Although I wouldn't put it past Sakurai to go the extra Miles for DQ.
