Can't you guys SERIOUSLY come up with better candidates for smash, I mean...we've got joker from fucking persona, and tekken has negan from the walking dead so we should really be thinking bigger than the same five characters you used to have a hate-boner in 2016 but now shitpost about non-stop.
If you're so smart, who do you think is being added, buster?
>Inshittiroar
>Charizard
>Greninja
I wonder if it will ever be the grass starters turn to be mercilessly shilled by Gamefreak?
I never hated Steve
when is the new 4craft server going up?
I'm still going strong on hayabusa and erdrick
That's still only 2, kid.
Joker isn't that out there... especially now that theres a Persona game for 3DS
THAT'S A HECKIN BIG OOF user. YOU'RE SUCH A HECKIN QUEEN SLAAAYYY.
Yeah, I'm thinking she's in.
Tony Soprano from the sopranos
>Erdrick
gimme geno
hell fucking o
you forgot the only one with actual ballot support
does someone need a swordsmen?
I don't understand why everyone is sleeping on hayabusa. Big NES icon with plenty of games afterwards and owned by Team Ninja who seems pretty chummy with Nintendo being allowed to even mess around with a few of their IPs like with Hyrule and FE Warriors
no
you need to get those damn frog coins first
Tell me five (5) reasons why geno is better than
>Sephiroth, and basically anyone from final fantasy
>Lara Croft
>Adam Jensen
>FUCKING GEX
I'm waiting
here is your 2nd Bamco rep bro
>Kratos
>Master Chief
>Crash
>Spyro
>Slime
Anything less is a failure
Square Enix hates Eidos.
he's a mario character
I know MK is never released in Japan but “GET OVER HERE” is iconic enough to break down barriers.
Jibanyan is unironically the best choice
Incineroar and Greninja got in because they appealed to Sakurai's taste. Decidueye almost got in but thankfully Sakurai decided to pick Incineroar instead. Another projectile spamming character would be a pain.
But they still own lara
He's in
>talks between bethesda and nintendo before smash’s release
>eternal coming to all platforms, including switch
>sakurai has stated carmack is the godfather of the fps genre
E3 can’t come any sooner
>3rd party characters
>non vidya characters
absolute shit taste, non vidya characters in particular is a stupid fucking idea
HE'S STILL OWNED BY SQUARE
alright that's it I'm stunting so hard on these geno fags give me one good reason why this retarded JoJo reject tumblrina cunt WHO'S ALSO OWNED BY SQUARE wouldn't make for a better option than geno
I'm still waiting
He's already a mainstay in MvC, and Bayo already clearly fills that "Function" I don't think he's gonna be getting in anytime soon.
she has no combat abilities
Based
>function
this isn't MvCi, also there's 3 million clones in Smash.
>geno
>jojo regect
Literally the stand thats a wooden puppet is one of the worst in the series.
so we're all agreeing he's in, right?
Phoenix Wright has no combat abilities either and look at him go in MvC 3
Max Caufield from LiS
reading comprehension
DLC characters still go under the whole function thing except if they're fire emblem because yeah fire emblem
Gimme cookies
phoenix is also an adult male and not a teenage girl
Fuck off, retard, I've wanted Banjo more than anything else for 20 years. If you want nothing but your expectations to be subverted, Episode IX comes out in 9 months.
fuck my ass and call me slut I'm a fucking idiot
functions are important, at least to Sakurai
he's mentioned repeatedly that he likes there to be something unique about each character, with clones being the exception due to time constraints
Well she's a teenager...a very stupid teenager for that matter but she's not fucking pinocchio alright
A lot of good candidates got added to the game already as Assist Trophies and Spirits. Unless Nintendo is fine with reversing those decisions we're at the very bottom of the barrel.
face it, fellow genofag. he's not happening. be realistic about his chances and the fact that he has a lot going against him except fan demand, which probably isn't enough. we can only hope we get the mii costume back, and even that probably won't happen because square has an entire buster sword up their ass.
This guy gets it
>Erdrick
Cringe. They would never add a third party literal who as DLC. DQ is also too much of a legal nightmare due to the rights being split between many different companies and the composer being a greedy piece of shit.
Reminder that almost every legit leak gets completely ignored until after proven true. Most of them are also posted only a few days before reveal.
Virginben just had lucky guesses and Tanshit doesn't know anything about Ultimate.
Brave is Sora. Cope.
Why would you immediately asume I'm a star wars fan
Because you're clearly retarded
>DQ is a legal nightmare
>Proceeds to mention character with split rights to (((Disney)))
>tell cj all he had to do was follow the damn train
>Akira Yuki trophy
>Fatal Frame grils are spirits
>Ocelot spirit
Hey atleast Geno's a spirit...fair trade
I've seen you post multiple times. Will you kill yourself if Erdrick is in the game or just cope?
Based
>tfw voted for Zero on the ballot
fuck you sakurai
>Doom 64 still Nintendo exclusive.
Sorafags committing mass suicide post E3
Holy cringe. Your list is boring.
If Steve or Ashley make it in I'll actually be pretty damn upset. Sora and Dante are way better choices.
>inb4MvCI
Doomguy is a bit too violent for babies first fighting game, snake is just edgy but he stabs you in the throat, end of story...unlike main man here that punches your head in and rips it back out
More like Sorafags committing mass suicide later this month or April. A Smash Direct should drop off soon to show off Joker and tease the next characters.
Sora is an even worse corporate nightmare than erdrick, and dante like it or not is already in marvel, so he's not in
Bayonetta sticks her enemies on BDSM racks and tears them apart.
Boring but not autistic
Fuck no, Nintendo is in charge of the DLC
For the next game though...
>NiGHTS
>Dante From The Devil May Cry™ Series
>The DOOM Marine
>Erdrick
there
>>Ashley
Why are we now against first party characters getting in Smash like Ashley, Springman, Porky, or Isaac?
In a very cartoony way
>Virginben just had lucky guesses
Lucky my ass Those guesses were obvious in the beginning. plus he was never even reliable to begin with.
You forgot Agnes, Neku, and Chrono. All of which also better than Geno.
Because they're being pushed by massive fucking autists and pedophiles so they don't deserve their character to be in, like they even play fighting games judging by those choices
EVERYTHING is "very bottom of the barrel" to you people.
STOP SAYING DANTE HE'S ALREADY IN MARVEL
>Those guesses were obvious in the beginning
lol no
>literally who
>we've gone over this
>Y E S
>Definitely
And not sellable. Nobody is going to want to buy the dlc for two more fucking anime swordsmen, one who is a literal who and the other whose fanbase has the passion of a dead duck
Isn't Ryu in Marvel?
Chocobo
THAT'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT
The best one there is chronos, but since he's toriyama territory it's still a legal nightmare
The rest are still literal whos
>characters in Marvel can't be in Smash
take that shit back right now
Pic unrelated
Ryu is the traditional fighting games icon, for that matter he's also in tatsunoko, CvS and the gazillion puzzle games that capcom shat out during the pre 09' dark eras
>Agnes
>Neku
They're both the last remaining NES classic characters that aren't in smash, shut up before you say something THIS RETARDED...zoomer
>Nobody is going to want to buy a character from a huge RPG franchise or a character from the most iconic NES games
are you serious?
Harvest moon protag
Tom Nook
Gilgamesh (ffv)
Knuckles
How about Travis Touchdown
I mean doom marine is a bit of a long shot, but its something I'd want to be true.
He has
>Been on a nintendo console
>Is going to get a new game on a nintendo console soon.
>Represents the FPS genre, in a similar way that Snake represents MGS and Stealth, and Incineroar represents professional wrestling.
>K.Rool (and Diddy Kong too) has gotten in so western characters aren't off the table.
>Doesn't have complicated rights bullshit. (To my knowledge.)
going for him. But that said, the "Genre Rep" and "Western Character" reasons are very subjective on my part. And I guess the only other thing would be what a Smash version of doom guy would look like/be. Would he be the most recent 2016 version (which I can see being easilly "reskinned" the same way they do in the new quake game to being a 90's Doom version, in a similar way to how Ike has "Grizzled" and "non-grizzled" appearence options) or the Doom Eternal Version, which given the weird Arm Knife, might have a different moveset that is more specific to a recent/upcoming game than anything inherent to the character. I mean an ideal version would be going along the Pit(as of Brawl)/Duck Hunt/PacMan path and just make a remix/reimagined version unique to smash.
I feel as though some of those sentences ran on.
>No
>Why
>Who
>Stop it
We can all agree that indie games are a No-no right?
I wish Dante was in the game, along with Phoenix Wright
How about no
>No
Why not?
>Why
Hes cool and popular
>Who
Gilgamesh from ffv
>Stop it
No
I'd be fine with Quote since Cave Story is Japanese and it was pretty much THE indie game.
Don't forget that Bethesda and Nintendo have been really chummy. And we know for a fact that Bethesda has talked to Nintendo about Smash before.
Both are in marvel just get good at it
Neku
>Main protag of his game. Said game recently had a Switch exclusive definitive edition.
Geno
>Important, but not main character of his game. Said game came out over 20 years ago.
>His cameo got removed from the remake of the game he cameo'd in
In other words: eat a dick puppetfag.
We are NOT getting dragonborn in smash
no one mentioned non-vidya characters
I know, I'm actually into the mvc series or fighting games in general
Based
No shit. I'm arguing for Doomguy. Bethesda publishes Doom games. id Software and Bethesda are owned by the same company too.
Name 1 (one) non vidya character mentioned so far
Shadow
>Dragon Quest is too much of a legal nightmare
>but working with fucking Disney isn't
>two MS characters
>Sans
Fuck off
No
seething
haseo the fucking terror of death deserves to be in smash, or a .hack rep in general.
>Come up with something better
We've been getting egged on for the past 3 months. We're gonna get Jokah, (((maybe)))get our next announcement, and then wait for E3. And then the obligatory one in fall. The one at the game awards. And then that's it. Why do we speculate when this shit is gonna be when it's so damn obvious? And character wise, it's stuff Nintendo picked. So unless they had the gonads to choose some really ballsy characters these are the characters you are gonna see for the next year:
Banjo
Geno
Erdrick
Steve
Doomguy
Ryu
Crono
Reimu
Crash
Sora
Neku
Terra
Kos-Mos
And whatever other picks v circlejerks 24/7. I dont know how you guys ask every single day what the DLC characters are gonna be and expect something different. Sakurai honestly shouldve announced all of them at the start or not done DLC at all given how autistic is his about """"leaks"""" that happen every single fucking time before a direct.
I don't know how you guys do it.
2/3s of those characters will never be a candidate for smash.
Heres your new smash rep bro
I'd be down for Freddy over Sans or Steve.
Didn't Disney say Sora in Smash is up to Nomura and also allow Wreck it Ralph to be in Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed to promote the first film as a trade for having Sonic and Eggman in it?
I honestly don't expect any of them to make it in. But OP is mad about how we pick from the same characters every single time and doesn't fucking put one up himself. Why address the problem if you don't plan to fix it?
Geno's game was a true Square/Nintendo collaboration. Geno represents the relationship of two hitmakers during their prime.
The success of Super Mario RPG was the inspiration for not 1, but 2 spin offs. Paper Mario, and Mario & Luigi.
If you want the rest of the fighter pass to truly be nostalgia b8 and bring in the normies all over, this is how you do it for the remaining four slots:
>Ryu Hayabusa
>the Battletoads
>Doomguy
>Banjo & Kazooie
Yet there are so many other good choices as well. Makes me want them to do a season 2 or even 3 of the fighter pass so we can finally let Yea Forums's autism enter its final form and put and end to requests/ect.
What are you implying?
That's never stopped anyone, *especially* Dante
Billy and Jimmy from Double Dragon
That’s just Joel in a blue shirt.
mario related
I still dont know why people are so against DQ in smash considering it carries a legacy way bigger than almost all 3rd party reps, is one of the most influential series, is one of the best selling franchises, and is one of the most consistent if not the most consistent 3rd party series on Nintendo.
JUST GIVE ME CHOSEN UNDEAD AND ILL BE HAPPY
Fuck that. The worse about Dante is that
A) He is never been on a Nintendo console
B) Although definitely a legend, not an icon (He isn't Pacman or Sonic)
Cloud and Joker can fuck off to while we are at it. Even Shantae made more sense to be in Smash.
People just don't want another sword fighter or anime fighter, personal I don't mind a Dragon Quest character getting in
only if he gets pic related as an alt costume and the stage is Firelink
lol retard
Costumes:
>Elite Knight
>Solaire
>Artorias
>Faraam
>Alva
>Firelink
>Slave Knight
>Wildcard, any of (Fluted/Patches/Lautrec/Dark Wraith)
Move set inspired from various bosses over the series. Absolute kino.
The "Cloud technicality" card
Right there in the front
I wonder what are they expecting considering that the game is Japanese, anime is Japanese, and that the most popular weapon are swords. There is an issue with Marth and Link clones, but I would argue that most of the complaints come from people who want either retarded edgy shit or cartoony shit.
yes
Yes and Cloud was on Kingdom Hearts (GBA). It doesn't count, it's not their game.
If you only played on Nintendo consoles, odds are that you never cared for the characters. Is that simple.
Nice argument.
Dante isn't that likely, but we all know Nintendo history is a "courtesy" not a requirement. And every 3rd party fighter has been on a Nintendo before
The reason why Cloud got in is because he and FF7 are iconic
>Fawful
>Black Shadow
>Eggman and Shadow
>Alucard and Soma
>Octoling
>Banjo & Kazooie
>Waluigi but only if they put him in a WarioWare game or something to justify a moveset
>Fawful
shit taste
I know it won't happen, but maybe one day
Name one better Mario RPG rep.
Why are Banjo and Kazooie not an amazing candidate?
How about I name no Mario RPG reps? We don't need one.
Absolutely, positively, based.
holy fucking cringe.
you can't. Hell, there isn't a better mario rep in general than Fawful.
shit taste
The Koopa Bros
>muh representation
>we don't NEED this character
fuck right off. This shit opinion has never amounted to anything.
seething. keep coping.
You're the one who's arguing for "MUH REPRESENTATION." We don't need a Mario RPG rep. Cope.
They better have Tyrone and Lamar from Double Nigger as alts.
Antasma, Count Bleck or Dimentio would be pretty rad, too. Smash could use more mages.
They will
This picture convinces me that Fawful should never ever be in 3D.
>snake is just edgy but he stabs you in the throat, end of story
Yeah what a nonviolent not painful way to die
I'm not arguing for fucking representation you illiterate retard. I'm arguing for a character that I love and know would make an amazing addition to the game.
Meanwhile your argument is literally just "I don't like it"
>Ryu
Call it arbitrary, but they already have a Ryu in smash.
I mean not stopping them from calling him Hayabusa or whatever. But still. That is definitely one of the better picks however.
>I'm not arguing for fucking representation you illiterate retard.
>Name one better Mario RPG rep.
lmao you're fucking retarded
It's just some shitty modder who doesn't know anything about the character. just check out the video it's from. He can't even get the voice right.
Fawful in 3D wold be fine.
smash doesn't have enough cute boys
that. is. not. me.
>That feel when some nobody from a game 20 years ago is more recognizable than your generic anime protagonist DS title that you were the main character of
Then what the fuck are you even doing? Why bother replying if you can't even read the reply chain?
because I was defending fawful's inclusion? The conversation of "it's shit" over and over isn't exactly a closed off one.
If there's another ballot I unironically see him getting acknowledged.
>Jibanyan or Agumon/any other digimon
>Hatsune Miku
>Doomslayer
>Reimu/Marisa, if not, then idk, a JSR rep
The Wonderful 101's huge team gimmick I felt loaned itself better to being an assist. But that said I wouldn't oppose proper fighter either, and I'd want some Wonderful 101 representation somehow.
Scorpion or Sub-Zero because it's possibly the only way to have a dream match of MK vs SF.
based.
People only recognize him from having been incessantly spammed in Smash threads, I think you're forgetting.
So you admit you're a fucking retard? We already knew that since you said you wanted Fawful in Smash.
Would unironically be an amazing choice but I dont think it'll ever happen.
God I am so sick of this zoomer shit
I can't believe I actually miss the old pretentious fucks who thought they were better than others for playing a game that no one else had. I'd take them over this 'literal who' meme trash anyday
Pic related is my number one choice, but if I had to choose something crazy give me fucking Mickey Mouse.
Not a bad pick at all.
>"People only know or like a character because they're talked about. Not from the actual fucking game they played and enjoyed"
???
>implying Neku wouldn’t be based
Get a load of this stupid hectopascal.
Mega Mushroom
Why should we? The literal only thing UNGA BUNGA BIG would get us that would be good is Tetris representation. The rest of it is pure trash and its never how Smash has operated. Get fucked you recency bias zoomer shitstain
The worst part is that they only have Wonder Red and Blue as spirits, when sm4sh has trophies for the other characters
That pretty much describes a lot of characters that are only relevant thanks to Smash discussion, even if they don't get in.
Unironically zoomers that don't know what he's from. Watch them all clamour and say they expected him once he's revealed - just like what happened with Simon.
>Joker
>Doomguy
>Banjo
>Chosen Undead
>Reimu
This is the definitive DLC list. No other list will come close to being as universally pleasing as this one.
>features both boomer and zoomer favorites
>highly popular characters from east and west alike
>JRPGs, FPSs, Collectathon Platformers, ARPGs, and Shmups represented well, all of which bar jrpgs have poor representation in smash
>each franchise offers a rich world and great soundtracks
>all are 3rd party but have appeared on nintendo systems
>Chosen undead
>Touhou
There aren't people dumb enough to actually think those are possibilities, right?
Gordon Freeman
the Switch version of XI has Sugiyama's 'good' (the soundtrack's still not that great overall imo) music so he's probably not that much of an argument against Erdrick anymore.
If your most wanted 3rd party character isn't in this picture they are irrelevant plain & simple
You forget the fact the DLC is being decided by corporate. They don't give two shits what the fans want. They're just going to use the slots as bargaining chips to gain favor with other developers. I can almost guarantee you the P5 announcements later will be regarding the Switch in some way shape or form
>Reimu
I would love for Neku to get in just because of his sheer moveset potential. Reminder that he has all of these abilities:
>pyrokinesis
>lightning bolts/electricity manipulation
>icicle spikes/freezing
>earth manipulation/summoning meteors/summoning earthquakes
>telekinesis
>short-ranged hand blades made out of energy
>energy bullets of varying size, shapes, and effects
>energy beams
>can create barriers of energy to heal, attack and defend himself- sometimes all at once
>can create orbs of water that damage his enemies
>teleportation
>soundwaves via summoning giant loudspeakers
>can create a holy field of energy that renders him impervious to attacks
>summon chains to damage foes
>create energy bombs or turn objects into bombs
>turn invisible
>summon black holes
>heal himself
>summon giant boomerangs
>super speed
And as of Final Remix
>can summon swords that circle around him and shoot out at his enemies ala DMC Vergil
>can shoot swords at his enemies ala Gilgasmesh from Fate
>create crescent energy shockwaves
>summoning energy orbs that rebound off of enemies
>imbue his slashes with fire and create a hellstorm of flames
Stop bitching and post fun movesets.
Doomguy and Reimu go surprisingly well together, I wish we lived in a timeline where both got picked.
>You forget the fact the DLC is being decided by corporate
No, it's being decided by Sakurai, as always. Nintendo gave him a large list of characters they could feasibly get the rights to or were generally "approved", and Sakurai picked from that.
It's not impossible but still unlikely. Sakurai has pulled crazier shit in the past anyways.
>Doomguy and Reimu go surprisingly well together,
There's more overlap with the fanbases than you'd think.
youtube.com
I got a few, hang on
If Ryu is in I might even cry a little
not gay
polygon.com
nintendoeverything.com
And don't give me that semantic shit of "Oh, but Sakurai still CHOSE them". Yeah, no shit. From a list NINTENDO chose.
So when are Sephiroth Scorpion Crono and Crash getting in
>polygon
We don't even know how big the list is. It could have been 5 characters and Sakurai just accepted it. The only thing Sakurai is responsible is rejecting a character if he doesn't think they'd work as a Smash Bros fighter. Anyone who thinks Sakurai has more control than that is fucking retarded.
LET HIM IN
Replace Sidesmash with POW HAHA and the Final Smash with uber and this would be pretty good.
>not making the character the Spy that has different moves depending on what mask he's wearing
