Then they need to make a new one where you’re able to vote for anybody regardless of ingame role.

If they only stick to the 2014 one, then they’ll believe that fans have no interest in seeing characters stuck in AT hell like Isaac, Lyn, Ashely, Waluigi etc ever upgraded to the roster.
They don't need a new one. They already have a huge set of results. As characters get in, that leaves more with higher results to be considered. Only one was ever needed. They already have an idea of who is popular. It doesn't mean they'll realize that them not being playable would cause a huge backlash, though. You can't always predict that.

Actually, I think a new ballot would be a better idea. That ballot was how long ago? 4 years? A lot changed since then, now that a lot of the top picks got inserted into the game as either fighters or ATs, people want different characters to be in the game. If they made a new ballot, the top picks would be pretty different, since a lot of characters would be voted more because characters that were in their way due to bigger popularity are now gone. As well as new characters that got an increase in popularity nowadays, like Geno, who had quite a niche following back there, but is now one of the most requested characters ever.

Let’s be real though, how many people would straight up quit Smash speculation if Steve gets added over several fan requests?

You say this like Nintendo doesn't know about the demand for Isaac, Shadow, Ashley, and Waluigi.

ESPECALLY Waluigi.

Anyone who ends up doing that, is not a legitimate Smash fan...

Real Smash fans, stay, regardless of which character gets announced

Mostly guys from the Geno and Banjo gangs.

I say this as someone who was in the Geno and Banjo gangs during base roster speculation.

The fact that the Dragon itself is also wielding TWO axes makes this picture a lot better.
Three axes, actually. Its partially cut off in that pic, but it has a third strapped to its tail.

Four if you count its axe-shapped tusks.

People who think Steve doesn't have his own fair share of fan requests should quit if they're going to be incredibly ignorant.

They know about lots of demands, but 95% they'll never act on it. Hell, I got a pretty good recent example.

I find it sad that the public image of the Geno fanbase went from: "Those oldschool guys that support Geno out of passion" in Sm4sh to "those bandwagon kids that never played SMRPG" in Ultimate. I legit want Geno as someone that played SMRPG a lot in his childhood, yet whenever I mention Geno anywhere else I'm called a "bandwagon kid".

People will start quitting Smash Speculation? I doubt it will get that extreme.

Will things get salty? Without a doubt. Steve is such a divisive character that his confirmation will make the ESRB Leak and the November Smash Direct look like nothing in comparison.

Probably not anyone we'd miss, if they'd honestly let that completely ruin their fun.

Interesting that Ridley came directly from the Ballot like K. Rool. Extremely surprising that the Belmonts came from it. Goes to show that there were definitely people outside of the hardcore Smash speculation bubble who voted.

I really want to see what the actual numbers for the ballot were now.
I voted multiple times like quite a few people did. So seeing Dark Samus and Ridley out of that situation was pretty cool. I don't remember if I voted for Simon too or not. I almost didn't put a vote in for Ridley, but did anyway.

I want to have another ballot, since I'll shill for my dude Mega Man X without hesitation.

You just gotta make it hurt, huh?

C'mon man :(
Hey, look at it this way. A certain someone played Animal Crossing: New Leaf before the September Direct and Metroid before E3 2017. Look what happened? Two Metroid games and 2019 Animal Crossing.

Don't give up the faith.

Used Google Translate and turned out to just be him talking about how he's happy and how fun Smash is because you can gather friends, family and enjoy the game. While also thanking us for playing Smash.
Bless Sakurai.
