I know it ain't going to happen but I do hope Harada does at least give a video message about Kazuya in Smash during the Sakurai Presents thing.

A part of me still cannot get my head around a Tekken character. It just can't fully click with me. Maybe cause I've spent far more time with that series than with King of Fighters and Street Fighter, though it dwarfs in playtime to Mortal Kombat and Smash.

Just makes me think of that feeling about FP2 in which half the characters would have been "fit smoothly" more in the base game roster.

I've never seen a gun like that. It appears to have two magazines.
The bolt in the back implies that it's a bullpup, so is the front magazine just a spare, or does the rifle actually shoot from both magazines?

Yeah, pretty much. (I think it was different in earlier installments, but that's definitely the case now)

it's both a smart idea and an extremely jarring thing to deal with...but it somehow works

"Second Chance" theory is proving pretty reliable so far. CP11 is gonna be really interesting.

I think second chance theory and color theory are the only two fan theorys that actually hold merit. In fact, I'd go as far as to not consider them fan theories at all, and instead actually true because so far, nothing has broken it and it has been over a year

I'm legit looking at companies like Ubisoft and maaaaybe certain Nintendo characters really hard right now.

Like, I'm not saying it's a guarantee or nothin', but...Waluigi does fit "second chance" pretty well... 👀

Then again, so does Cinderace, lol.

2000's was mostly bling era. Autotune was this weird transitional area between Bling Rap and modern Trap music I feel.

T-Pain can actually sing his ass off despite being the "Autotune guy".

I got pretty much everything I wanted out of Smash's roster by base game, with only really missing Tekken. On top of that, they added Fatal Fury and ARMS stuff. So I'm pretty happy. Not exactly Jin, but like I said before all 3 Mishimas had their merit to be chosen.

Obviously, I'd still want the last character to be someone I like. But you can't please everyone.

It'll be interesting to see how it'll turn out.

Master Chief. Vergeben has never called a character that hasn't come to be eventually.
I actually have my own tinfoil hat theory that Master Chief will be the secret FP12 that was supposedly found in the Australian Smash website. Halo Infinite releases this year and will likely be nominated for Game of the Year, making it a perfect surprise last reveal at The Game Awards 2021.
Keep in mind that when Joker and Sephiroth were revealed, their games were nominated for Game of the Year, so Master Chief could follow that pattern.

It would be awesome if Master Chief was the final character and his tagline was "Master Chief finishes the fight!"

I'm in pretty much the same boat.

I'm along for the ride now, they satisfied me awhile ago.

I think Green is used as the connecting color between Pyra and Mythra.

And I'll say it for a while but it feels like with three of the five (Second Xeno rep, Sephiroth and Kazuya)would have been in the base game and now it feels like we'd be a few spots from the base game newcomer roster done in my eyes. Steve and Min-Min honestly would have been fine as DLC.

Add Captain Toad, Dixie Kong, Andy from Advance Wars, Bandana Waddle Dee, Tails and a Namco Retro Rep like Gil or Mappy then we'd be more or less sorted in that way. Not to mention a few more echoes.

Just my view of the day though there.

I just want Crash.
I know that he'd be the "big get" for Smash 7's eventual reveal, but I want him NOW!

I remember people thinking color theory was so stupid. When I didn’t think it was that out there. Sakurai loves the UI and visual designs. It would make sense if these same concepts applied to designing the website and posters Sakurai has for each presentation as an extra flair.
