Which one of us has had a moderately acknowledged cool Midna icon within the last few months?

I think I'm the authority here.
well which one of us isn't an old man and is instead a cool, awesome, radical young twenty-something?

Since were on the topic of Mortal Kombat now though. These are my predictions for the next guests for the new game this year.

-Michael Myers (Been a trend with horror film characters. MK9 had Freddy, MK10 had Jason and Leatherface. Myers seems like the most logical pick this time around)
-Pennywise (In response to It: Chapter Two. Warner Bros. also distributes the first movie and this one which owns the rights to Mortal Kombat)
-Terminator (New Terminator movie this year and time travel being involved in the story)
-Spawn (Most requested guest character along with Todd MacFarlene teasing him and giving them permission to use Spawn)

Honorable Mention: Doom Slayer (Has been teased by Ed Boon)

I see all of those being possibilities. And it makes me sad.

I swear I'm the only one who doesn't get excited about movie cameos being added instead of more actual MK characters.

I for one welcome guest characters. I especially like the idea of Pennywise.

I can already imagine one of his fatalities him turning into his opponents biggest fear shown off screen as the camera zooms away and he/she gets so frightened they commit suicide and second fatality being his spider form where he then proceeds to tear his opponent apart.

Only one on smashboards maybe. On the MK forums people have the exact opposite opinion. Especially since there have been no male ninjas revealed yet in MK11 aside from Scorp and Sub of course.

I really hope Ermac weasels his way in somehow. The robed design he had in MKX is cool as ****, and telekinesis in general is a cool power.

Mortal Kombat is one of my biggest guilty pleasures. I royally suck at NRS games since I can't combo to save my life, but it's so much fun to watch the fatalities. I'm highly disappointed by Skarlet's two here, but Subby's are both excellent, and the recent ones they just showed for Kabal, Jade, and Baraka's second are awesome.

Still hoping that Kenshi or Jin are coming back, and I'm disappointed since it looks like Human!Scorpion's back out (that was the only Scorp costume I used), but it looks like it'll be fun. I just need to debate on the DLC since I'm usually not enthused by the horror movie characters.

But what I really want: Injustice, but as a Marvel vs. DC thing.

change = WoL has a new game minus mode (unlock either board bonuses or playable characters all over again)
Oh man, PLEASE! WoL started to get boring and repetitive after a while, and I'm the kind of person who kept changing characters for every other battle. Once I was able to start handing Legend-class spirits their ***es, it really wasn't interesting to take on the novices anymore. At least the sub-levels in Dharkon's world were more entertaining so I felt like I was getting something out of it.

Okay, glad I'm not the only one.

Like, Freddy in MK9? Okay, that was cool. Jason in MKX? Alright, that makes sense. Predator? Oh. Okay. Riding the cameos kind of hard but sure. Leatherface? Ugh. Fine, whatever just-- Xenomorph? The humanoid-looking one sucks!

If Mileena gets axed but we get to play as ****ing Pennywise I'm gonna be legitimately upset.

Well him, Tremor, and Smoke are the only ones with something not going against them at the moment. Noob is a maybe, but his artwork in the tower is too similar to his appearance in MK9 for me to think he's going to make it. I think Smoke is likely considering the other revenants.

Tremor was awesome, ngl.

I did like how they could take a completely irrelevant side character/palette swap and flesh them into an awesome character. Less so for Skarlet, but Tremor was all kinds of awesome in XL.

I'd thought Geras pretty well stole his thunder, but I'd love to see Tremor return.

Or...We get both.

I'm pretty certain knowing Mortal Kombat. The Mileena we saw die will be revealed to be a clone that she created learning from her father on how he escaped death in Deadly Alliance.

Plus no one ever truly dies in Mortal Kombat.

Except maybe Hsu Hao...

Wait they're putting PENNYWISE in Mortal Kombat?
**** mayne
It hasn't been confirmed. It was a prediction I was making. Reason for this given that It: Chapter Two is coming out this year and Warner Bros. also distributes the first movie and this one. It wouldn't surprise me if he's included to commemorate the second movie.

??? Are the boards glitching? I never said that...

Not that I don't believe it though - I'd be perfectly okay without the horror guest characters. But then again, that's the same sentiment here for third parties in Smash, so, I guess I'll have to like it.

I'm more expecting Mileena's gonna be DLC. They'll probably keep her dead for the story, but she's too popular not to have in, so they'll bring her that way. Then again, Baraka existing and Kabal's unmasked form show that there'll be some time travel shenanigans at play, so...

1 2 3 4 huh...?

1: Better online with better servers, proper overhaul that separates absurd rules from strictly playing BF/FD/hazardless SV, the latter part being the one thing that'll affect GSP. The ability to send/share snapshots and replays to friends like you used to be able to in Brawl.
2: An Underworld-themed stage for Kid Icarus, and Thundercloud Temple... and something Monster Hunter.
3: Just add more Kid Icarus songs, including some remixes... that also includes some from the original KI and Of Myths & Monsters.
4: Monster Hunter (as in an actual hunter), Pit (with a Palutena or First Blade as his primary weapon), Pit (with an EZ Cannon as his primary weapon), Dark Pit (with an Ogre Club as his primary weapon), Dark Pit (with a Violet Palm as his primary weapon), Medusa (Kid Icarus Uprising), Phosphora (promoted)

I think my bias might be a bit strong in this... well, and primary focus.

*Looks at quoted post*

Huh...Weird...

Also I find it hard to believe they won't leave Mileena out. Mark my words like I said its gonna be revealed she escaped and the one we saw die in the previous game was a clone. I can feel it coming.
