Social Ultimate Social Thread: Under Construction. Be Back Soon!

You actually misspelled Chris Redfield because if a RE rep gets in it will be him no doubt being the face of the franchise.

That's what's unique about Resident Evil, though. There is no face of the franchise.

Leon: Star of RE2, RE4, RE6, all three CGI movies, Gaiden.
Chris: Star of RE1, RE:CV, RE5, RE6, Vendetta, most MvC appearances
Jill: Star of RE1, RE3, RE:Rev1, first MvC rep.
Claire: Star of RE2, RE:CV, RE:Rev2, Degeneration

Capcom varies things up to keep them fresh, reintroducing old characters at various points and giving cover-star duties to any of the main four-- plus the occasional outlier like Rebecca on RE0 and Vendetta. There is no singular star.

And the reason I push so hard for Jill is that she's overdue for her turn. (Though if rumors are to be believed in 2020 she'll have both the RE3make and the next CGI movie all to herself.)

oh it's now technically april fools in the UK, guess that means it's fair game to pull my epic prank

errr

well

i'll be back to get y'all later

You kind of gave away your element of surprise, mate. I now will put you on my ignore list for the rest of the month.

Something like

• Piranha Plant
• Joker
• Erdrick
• Solaire
• Banjo
• Leon Kennedy
• Nintendo Promo Rep (separate from Fighters Pass)
  • Please be Astral Chain Twins they'd be so cool
• Ballot pick (separate from Fighters Pass)
  • Hard maybe

seems pretty realistic, if not a bit too optimistic, to me. It's 8 characters (7 if we say that Piranha Plant was a cut base roster character), which lines up perfectly with what we got for Sm4sh.

I do find it sorta amusing how many people have switched from the Steve stallion to the Banjo boat.

So tomorrow is April Fools Day...

Should I take break from boards? Who knows how crazy things could get. For all I know, @Moydow would use laser eyes on all of us!

April 1st is always the best day at the boards just to see what it becomes.

 

[SneakyLink]

I know exactly what I'm gonna do April fools day!

Only use gifs of something that is not Dorothy.

Probably gonna be nothing but Cyberchase gifs!

That Polar source really gave a lot of people second thoughts about the whole situation. It's a coin flip right now. I'll wait and see if there's any other leaker info to work with. By the by, watch everybody start believing Vergeben again as soon as he says Banjo is in.

Imagine not being a Banjo Bro, a Steve Stan and a Chief Chad so whatever happens you win.

That's because up until recently, Steve seemed like a shoo-in.
For me, he was the most likely Microsoft rep that I wanted. B&K was just a pipe dream.
But now there's evidence that B&K could actually happen.
So of course people switch.

i gotta feel immersed idon

Now if you want to feel like you're playing a fighting game while you're playing a 3rd person action game, might I recommend...

Especially if the Rare Replay on Switch is proven to be true I definitely sink that seals in their inclusion.

Oh I know, I just think it's best to keep your mind open, steve aint out of the running just yet.

**** it,

Capcom if you wanna make me happy, put in Wesker and have him do his shooty teleport MvC bull****.

Bloody Palace out tomorrow btw.

He's certainly not, but the fact that Banjo has become a legitimate possibility only just recently means more people are talking about him.

This is everyone's daily reminder that having a game on a modern Nintendo system is only a general indicator of a character's inclusion, and not a deciding factor.

 

[RandomAce]

Guys, I found someone who leaked Smash Ultimate three years ago!

Spoiler

It’s funny finding posts that predict the future.

if you think anyone is a shoo-in you're lackin

That "evidence" has no correlation to an inclusion in Smash Bros. Once any game comes to Switch people immediately think they're coming to Smash, but that's just simply not the case.

Tell me where it is in Nintendo's contract that you can only have your games brought to the Switch if they allowed their characters in Smash first?

Maybe I'm selling things short, but I think a lot of it is because people want Steve to be wrong and want Banjo to be right.

Honestly, Steve vs. Banjo is still the funniest rivalry that had no good reason for happening. At this point, I really feel nothing towards either, but nothing against them.

There's been more evidence than the Rare Replay thing.

There's no contract like that, but Rare Replay coming to Switch puts B&K back in the spotlight. If Rare Replay is indeed coming to Switch, that establishes a brand new, strong Nintendo-Microsoft relationship, which would be highlighting B&K at the very start.

I'm just saying he's grown more likely.

 

[Gentlepanda]

it was much more 'steve isn't in' than 'banjo is in' tbh

 

[Ultomato]

"Actual leak"
Because any of these people actually know what's going on?

Yeah that's definitely apart of it, but I've seen people who want steve still hop on the Banjo ballistic missile. I find it odd.

Okay but like

Ramen Tengoku (aka Mr. Steve) seems cool with Banjo now.

It's a lil deeper than that.

But the Xbox 360 had already done that?

Pretty sure Minecraft's crossplay did that first but ok

Perhaps they implicitly trust Polar's source and their faith in Verg (and/or anyone else who claimed Steve) is gone.

I can't speak for any specific instance, but it's also a case of the likelier a character seems, the more people jump on board.

My point is it'd be putting B&K back in the spotlight in a Nintendo-oriented context.

Minecraft's crossplay is nowhere near the level of an actual Microsoft game coming to the console, and if the rumors that go alongside the Rare Replay rumors are true, the Game Pass will be coming as well. This is obviously much more then the simple crossplay.

 

[Deleted member]

I wouldn't be so quick to put all my eggs in the banjo basket anyways, ultimately it's one guy's source against another guy's source, not exactly much to go of off.
