Are you sure about that?

This is now owned by Square Enix, ya know?
NGL would rather have them than any other proposed Square rep
We've got Pac Man, we've got Tetris (music) and we've got a sort-of-Pong assist trophy - all we need are the Space Invaders to cap off retro representation

Somehow, I think they’d be a good addition to Smash.
Yeah! They would!
And they'd work really well as an Ice Climbers echo, too. They'd just use Rocks instead of Ice, so basically, it wouldn't freeze opponents, but instead would launch them farther than the Ice Climbers' moves!

Of course! I mean, we never had caveman fighters in Smash before, right? Those two would be good Caveman fighters, if you ask me.

What's this I've been hearing about Brave having female alts? If that's true than it only further supports Erdrick being one of Ultimate's worst kept secrets.

Bring on the sword wielding DBZ boi/girl

Imo, they were the best choice for a second Square Enix rep

Dragon Quest is an icon in Japanese gaming, and I'm kinda surprised that it hasn't been in Smash any sooner.

At this point Erdrick is less secret than Incioneroar was.

Not Ken, though. He's the only survivor of the Grinch Leak. He actually got leaked and we barely cared. No one will be less secret than Ken.

I recently copped up Cave Story + since it's $14.99 right now. Now I see why people say this is the "Grandfather of Indie Games", it definitely feels like it.
The music, characters, everything feels... "right at home"? I JUST got it, so I'm still starting out.

That being said, I wouldn't mind whoever is the main character in Smash in the slightest. Y'all really don't know how hard the music in that game goes, man. A remix of some of the Cave Story songs? Mannn.

Ryu was pretty well known about as well...

I mean, it didn't help, when they literally had his character data called RYU

I’m not sure why a generic enemy would work as a 3rd party pick.

When you have the option to have one of your characters cross over, why would you pick a blank slate generic character? Despite being a mascot, Chocobo and Slime are one of many who look just like the many others if the same class of enemy/NPC.

If you look at most (If not all) gaming crossovers, it’s a character that has their own personality, and is...well, them. It’s more compelling if you choose a character that people have specifically experienced the story of, or have made connections with.

But whatever. I’m pretty confident that all 3rd parties will be specific characters from the company. Sakurai could go for a generic enemy/character from a Nintendo game, such as Piranha Plant. But from another company that involved Nintendo paying to use, and Square Enix to agree to? Doubtful imo.

I cared.

Because he looked better than in Street Fighter V.

Them being dlc makes the most sense though honestly.

Glad to see you're enjoying Cave Story. :4pacman: It's a really good game that most people seem to have forgotten about nowadays. I still believe that Cave Story would be a better indie rep than Shovel Knight, mostly because of how it started the indie frenzy, carrying so much history (no pun intended) with it. The main character name is Quote by the way.

Oh, on the topic of Smash, I'll wait 'til I see the official reveal before who supposedly "Brave" is. After the Grinch, "Square rep first" and these past two months being "Rumor Squashing Season", I'm holding my breath until then.

That being said, however, Smash Ultimate should at this point be around 7-9 million copies sold, given how it sold 5 million already in it's first week or so, and I don't think it's that out of the ordinary for a second season.

But is Smash the type of game that SHOULD get a second season? Fighting games like Street Fighter and DBFZ do, so I'm curious to see y'all inputs on it.

At least one more season.

This game is doing great, and will be the last Smash game for another decade at least. Why not support it a little longer?

If the Boss Baby: Back in Business got 2 seasons, Smash Ultimate deserves at least 17.

I'm seriously not holding my breath for a second fighter pass. I want it desperately, but it's not happening. Nintendo doesn't do second waves, as far as I know. They announce what DLC will entail from beginning to end from the get-go. That's just how they roll. Sakurai told us all the DLC will be on the fighter pass, so that's what I'm expecting.

It should. Furthermore, I think it should be all 1st parties. I may be biased, I generally don't care about 3rd parties, but Season 1 looks to be 3rd Parties exclusively. A second season having Nintendo characters would make both distinct and people would be more willing to buy both.

If I had to guess what an all 1st party pass would be, I'd guess...
