I think Erik will be Joker.I don't play Dragon Quest but coming up with other characters as Spirits is sure fun
Erik:
Veronica:
Serena:
Sylvando:
Jade:
Rab:
Hendrik:
So satisfyingI was thinking Sonic because like everyone else pointed out, is the hair
Make sense, but I thought that Joker been a thief, having a knife, a coat and practically the same size have more in common with Erik.
Not having the female versions of DQ3 and DQ4's protagonists is a huge bummer, yeah. I'm holding out for Sakurai or the Smash team maybe addressing their absence when they go over how The Hero works at a later date.
Or perhaps even go far by saying, assuming Nintendo will make consoles in the near-future, let's just hope for the female variants to be added in say a hypothetical future port of Smash Ultimate.
Now would having Goku as an assist trophy in Smash 6 affect the chances although he's deconfirmed. A good trade off would be to promote Waluigi to a playable character in return.
You're partially correct, those who support Goku, would be unsettle that he's not playable, detractors might feel a little concerned. But some detractors may be glad he's not a playable character, but he's still included in the game. Also, I've aforementioned that Goku's videogame history would also justify his reason for being an assist trophy.
Goku originated from a manga, so his history with video games, no matter how expansive, doesn’t matter. He’s an icon of manga and anime, not video games. If you want to see Goku fight Mario you can just boot up MUGEN. In my eyes there’s not much reason for him to be in other than to be a brief novelty for a moment.
Kai thinks Goku can still be an AT if Sakurai doesn't want to make him a fighter. This is despite how the potential hassle for licensing him that Sakurai doesn't want to deal with will extend to any sort of appearance Goku has in the game, not just a fighter.
You are right, even if Goku was just a spirit, and not an assist trophy nor playable, I would still be happy.
But assist trophies aren't playable, and they don't join the battle. Imagine how amazing it would be to see Goku appear as an assist trophy in duel between Mario and Sonic. Since assist trophies don't join the battle, it justifies why Goku can only be an assist trophy or only a spirit, but never playable. Even if fans continued to support Goku, in Smash 7, after Smash 6, Sakurai would most likely remove or retain him as an assist trophy.
I never wanted goku as a playable character, but I now want him as an assist trophy. He has had a major videogame history, if you read my previous posts you will find out.
This is my point, pretty much !
Maybe all DLC characters will be released on a Wednesday.
You mean all the remaining ones?
Say it with me now:
I don’t have to imagine it because I already know what all his moves would potentially be and they’re all already in smash between different characters. This is mainly because Dragon Ball barely has any original moves. The pose for the Kamehameha wasn’t even original either. Hero himself does the same pose in the trailer:
For curiosity's sake, where was Kamehameha pose seen before DB?
Holy ****! That's amazing! That move already looked DBZ-ish enough (specifically like Frieza's planet killer, but even more so in the DQ games) but doing the Kamehameha pose is icing on the cake!
Several martial arts techniques actually have poses akin to the Kamehameha. A couple examples would be Tae Kwon Doe’s “Taesan-milgi” and Okinawan karate’s “Sanchin”.
I've always known that Goku isn't a video game character, which is why he would still be included in the game as an assist trophy, but never as a playable character. Thus including Goku as an assist trophy could be better than nothing. I've known that Smash is a celebration of gaming. But I don't think having Goku as an assist trophy would affect the chances of him being playable. He would still be deconfirmed all long.
Why are you acting like Assist Trophies aren't video game exclusive?
I..... think what we're trying to say is, although there's probably more than a few people who might not mind *insert non game originating character here* as an assist trophy, the vast majority of Smash players would be against it. So while I know you mean no harm and your opinion is fair to have, it's not gonna gain much ground on these boards and will tend to anger people before it convinces them to agree.
Were they even really GoldenEye items in the first place? They were always classified moreso as Smash series items and their designs in later games reflects this. Taking inspiration from the Goldeneye games for item ideas may have happened, but they've always just been smash items to me.
Exactly.
It's because the Goldeneye motion sensor bomb, originated from a non-video game franchise (with significant videogame history). And Goldeneye has been left without any playable characters So thus, I believe that Goku can still be an assist trophy and leave Dragon Ball without any playable characters. Same goes with Hatsune Miku.
The plans to Goldeneye elements inclusion was in a time were Smash wasn't that defined as a "game about games" and it was more like a place were Sakurai put the things he finds fun that Nintendo had the rights for. Also the Proximity Mines was made by Rare and are present in Perfect Dark too, so the original Motion Sensor Bomb could count more as a Perfect Dark item in the current Smash context, but since Brawl MSB was reworked as a Smash Original.
They re-designed those items and now also re-classified them as items from Smash and not Goldeneye. Plus, the items aren’t exactly Goldeneye originals, as in the concept of invisibility cloaks and land mines isn’t exactly a trademark of Goldeneye. Unlike Goku who is, uh, Goku. It’s not really the same.
