If Snake does come back, which stage should they put alongside him? Should they bring back Shadow Moses Island or should they put in a new stage like Groznyj Grad, Outer Haven or some others?

I'm sure that they will bring back Shadow Moses (and I'm happy about that, since it is my favourite stage), but I would love to see a stage based on MGS3 where you fight the Boss. An arena with withe flowers that tourns red after every K.O.

Whatever stage Snake would get, probably wouldn't be legal, like every other 3rd party stage

Heres the newest trailer from gamescom for MGS5, a base building video should come soon as well

It was very.. lackluster. I know Kojima is gone, but they could've atleast tried to make it not seem like an action movie.

Probably would be Shadow Moses.
But I'd still like to see either the flower field from the fight with The Boss in 3 or the top of Metal Gear Rex, like in 1 :p

Granted that wasnt a kojima edited trailer, and its obvious from the outset and the tone. Still decent though
Yeah, but Kojima had that magic touch when it came to the trailers, like Sakurai with the Kid Icarus or Smash 4 trailers.

I don't care if Snake's stage is legal or not because of the omega form magic. I'm fine with MGS themed FD with kick ass music.

I say Shadow Moses on both versions for simplicity's sake.
I Second the notion. One of my main arguments for Snake is that the existing content means less time and cost, making him very profitable and opens up more time/resources for more content. Plus, Shadow Moses is just a fun stage that I want back on both versions instead of getting a great stage on one version and a lackluster new stage (I'm looking at you Green Hills and being a 3DS exclusive).

To answer, Shadow Moses Island seems the most likely. I love that stage, and if it comes with new music, Heaven's divide would be my number 1 choice.

Anyway, I feel like talking about Snake's chances right now. After recent events, it seems to be getting just a bit better.

- He's relevant (Obviously)

- He's a popular choice

- Kojima and Konami may be a bit of a problem, though I don't think it greatly affects his chances.

- He has a unique movesets that no one has been able to replicate.

- Nintendo has reached out to Konami to make a Hudson Soft game. While it may not effect other Konami IP's, Nintendo still thinks its worth reaching out towards Konami for negotiations.

- This is something more related to Nintendo, but it was recently said by a Nintendo Treehouse employee, that they have other game consoles at the headquarters for employees to play and have knowledge on other games. It was something that reinforced the idea that Nintendo doesn't care for competition, and more on fun. And considering how people like to say Snake was on other consoles more, it seems Nintendo doesn't care for that (Look at Ryu who's appearing on other consoles more). If Sakurai were to pick a 3rd party character, it would most likely be based on legacy, them actually appearing on a Nintendo console, and the support for said character.

I would say Snake is in pretty good shape.

There's other ways to have competitive stages and not just be an FD skin. A bunch of FDs is no excuse for a lack of competitively viable stages.

As a whole, I agree. I'm just saying I'd be ok if the MGS stage wasn't tourney legal just cause omega exists to let me listen to the best music regardless.

There's this guy on the Wolf support thread who keeps liking every posts he sees and yet no one's doing anything about it.
I did it across about 12-14 different threads and was pretty notorious/infamous for it. Easy to see that I may have accidentally liked something that wasn't intended to be liked and, in turn, got in trouble for it. It wasn't bad trouble, though.

As a matter of fact, the Wolf thread was one of those threads I constantly liked posts on.

By the way, if you're on Twitter, you may notice that the Wolf for DLC account gives out quite a few shoutouts to the Snake for DLC account. ;)

I haven't noticed. I'll be sure to check that out. I need to use Twitter a lot more often for stuff like this.

So did they tell not to like posts like that, or just stop liking all posted?

At first they just shut off my liking privileges all together, then they saw how sorry I was and gave them back to me. Sooo.

I was reading SourceGaming and Sakurais comments on clone/vets.

They DO take up MUCH LESS time and resources then a brand new character - would think this coupled along with the fact Snake is one of the top characters requested bodes well for us.

I have too. I really like Source Gaming, by any chance have you watched Relax Alex's new video talking about the development of Smash 4?

Personally, I liked that he was so heavy. It made up for the many oopses we had with blowing himself up accidentally.

I did watch that video, was groovy.

I will actually be surprised if Snake and Wolf (maybe one other) weren't announced for the next DLC bundle. Would coincide with the next chapters of those series releases.
