Reminder that literal whos have no place in Smash

gameinformer.com/interview/2018/11/21/masahiro-sakurai-talks-piranha-plant-spirits-and-20-years-of-super-smash-bros

About Piranha Plant's addition:
>I’m actually not paying too much focus on the surprise element when we introduce a new fighter. The surprise element quickly fades once the announcement has been made. Rather, I believe it’s important to have a good balance as a game. In the past titles in the series, Mr. Game & Watch, R.O.B. and Duck Hunt Dog were some of the examples we offered outside of people’s typical expectations. However, if we don’t have these types of fighters, and we only had typical “hero/heroine” type fighters in the lineup, there’s not much difference. It’s probably not very interesting. Correct?
>Also, unlike some main characters from some (not widely known) franchises, Piranha Plant is a character everyone knows well. And, I want to make sure to remind everyone that it is a limited-time offer fighter everyone can get for free as an early-purchase bonus.

Basically your obscure puppet, and yellow marth are NEVER being added

What did he mean by this

That they are more important than Golden Shit lmao

Captain Falcon arguably yes, but those other three? Hell no.

Literally everything is more important than that game. That doesn't explain why other literally who's are allowed in, but not that literally who.

And still, it wouldn't cross anyone's mind to have as a legitimate fighter. Most people assumed for a fighter was Petey, which is a extension of the Piranha Plant, not the Piranha Plant itself.

I legitimately had a dream last night that fucking Mike Tyson was the next dlc character as another Punch Out rep and was disappointed to find out it was just a dream

Banjo's one of the few characters that could still actually make it. You should save it for after the fighter's pass is over.

Honestly what I think helped K. Rool get in over other "irrelevelant" characters, more than anything else, is legacy.

K. Rool has been absent from DK for awhile, but it doesn't erase his significance to the series. He was still the anatagonist and final boss of four mainline console games and three handheld games, and he was a major character in the CG cartoon, that, surprisingly, was popular in France and Japan.

A lot of other requested characters that too have gone missing over the years don't really have those crecidentals. Geno for example was a supporting character in one Mario RPG spinoff from years ago and that was it. Golden Sun had two decently popular games back in the day, a third game nobody liked, and that was it.

Ashley has legacy too, why isn't she in?

Does she? She's just a minor character in a minor series.

Yea Forums when I say I want Dante, Kiryu or Phoenix in:
>BASED!
Yea Forums when I say I want Isaac:
>c-cringe

Why? I just don't get it

This, Smash is only for true Nintendo allstars, the days of having obscure characters are over. Only one missing are Dixie Kong and Meowth.

Because they are the new Ridleyfags

Annoying fucktards who deserve to get bullied until they get in

>Isaac
>the new Ridley

what

Isaacfags were getting really delusional and annoying throughout this speculation cycle.
>muh rathalos
>muh earthquake
>muh green pixel
>muh grinch
>muh blurry item
They were the worst out of all the rosterfags.

Why do people keep mentioning Shulk when he got his North American release due to overwhelming fan demand and the resulting sales were so good despite a limited release that Xenoblade became a franchise?

Because DMC, Yakuza and Ace Attorney are good games?

Define what a literal who is in a way that does not contradict a character currently on the roster.

>adds a bunch of anime characters that also are literal whos
who cares what he has to say

Literally none of these was as bad as Ridley's shadow in the boss section of the Smash direct. All of these can be safely speculated.

Who?

They were the most hopeful and got deconfirmed the latest. It's literally people who don't care about smash just trolling because it gets easy yous.

Attached: 1523044088622.png (154x214, 82K)

The retards pushing the earthquake meme were either discordfags or grinchfags. That one user who shouted "there's a little bit of green sticking out next to Little Mac!!!" could have been a Banjofag or Genofag trying to prove the leak regardless of whether the evidence was tied to Isaac or not.
Also the blurry item... yeah, WHO would have thought that a sprout-like item could have ANY connection to one of the most commonly speculated and awaited 1st-party franchise for Smash?

So are Golden Sun 1 and 2

what's even the context of this? No one's saying Ridley or K. Rool fans have to like Banjo.
But K. Rool's circumstances are somewhat similar to his. That's all.

Not him but the context is the "big 3" mentality I think

K.Rool and Ridley were huge juggernauts and no one came close to their popularity, so picking a third one would have been weird. However Geno Banjo and Isaac have similar popularity and recognazibility, so a trinity situation here feels more fitting

The literally who argument goes out of the window once you realise that normalfags don't know about most characters in the game except the Mario ones and the Pokemon (and even they'll mostly only recognise the basic ones like the bros and Pikachu and Charizard)

I bet most people didn't know who Captain Falcon and Shulk were before playing Smash.

Gamers will defintely recognise the characters but it'a more plausible that a lot of them know them after playing Smash than from their original games. At this point though you can easily look up where they come from and emulation has made it possible for anyone to play their games now. Even characters like Isaac are recognised as shown from that live reaction of the final direct

Obsessed tranny autist

There is know "big 3", it's always just been K. Rool and Ridley

>G/B/I are on the same wavelength nowadays
Gotta disagree. Geno and Isaac have died off immensely compared to pre-release, because of the spirit/assist trophy reveals. Banjo's still M.I.A. and has a decent chance of actually making it for the fighter's pass, hence why there's still the occasional Banjo thread every now and then.
He's sort of become the "big thing" now that Ridley and K. Rool are actually in.

The only ones that were actively pushing a "Trinity" narrative were Genofags.

Considering sales for those other three series increased over time instead of plummeting, I think the general public disagrees. I sure know I can think of a dozen better RPG franchises.

What? I don't go in GS threads as I no longer care about it after the third game, but here I'm just stating facts when it comes to Smash. Don't know anything about trolls or fanboys

>deconfirmations actually hurt a character's popularity
Like Ridley became less popular after he was revealed as a boss? Yeah, thought so
You know Isaac and Geno would still be huge if they hadn't been deconfirmed right? They'll be back just fine when Smash 6 comes around the corner.

I'm saying it's a recurring thing with Golden Sun. You faggots always blame things on some nebulous group.

>most succesful new ip
>literally who

>You know Isaac and Geno would still be huge if they hadn't been deconfirmed right?
That's exactly what I was saying

You know Yakuza has hardly been a massive-seller and it took that franchise the tenth game or so to actually start selling well right? Ace Attorney's sales have also plummeted, unless you think the lack of physical releases and European translations after 4 were purely coincidental

We're merely shifting the blame on those who should be blamed. Again, using the grinch and the green pixel as arguments could have been the doing of any other grinchfag and you know there were a LOT of those around Yea Forums. Weren't you one of them yourself? I sure was.

And I was talking of the big 3 as a general thing, not "just for the few remaining DLC speculation months we have ahead of us". GBI will be spammed all across this board (whether together or separately) around Smash 6's reveal, unless Banjo gets in Ultimate as DLC

>current year
>ashleyfags are STILL coping

>You know Yakuza has hardly been a massive-seller and it took that franchise the tenth game or so to actually start selling well right?
In America. In Japan it's been a prosperous series from the start and was growing for years before stagmating, the Western boom picking up the slack there.
>Ace Attorney's sales have also plummeted
Give me numbers and I'll believe you.

Cringe.

>You know Isaac and Geno would still be huge if they hadn't been deconfirmed right? They'll be back just fine when Smash 6 comes around the corner.

I honestly kind of doubt Geno will be that big by the time the next Smash rolls out.

People seem to forget this but after Brawl, Geno had mostly died out for most of Smash 4's hype cycle, he was hardly seriouslt discussed until the Mii costume and Sakurai namedropping him in an 2016 interview, that's what gave Genofags some kind of hope that he'd be in the next game.

Has that fag responded yet after getting BTFO by the Joker annoucment?

It also implies "Chad" casuals don't criticize the roster as well, which is wrong. They just usually ask for far dumber shit like Goku, Master Chief, or whatever.

I don't think this is the one you meant but i want to post it anyways.

Strong in your convictions, no matter who you want. The nevereverfag tears will only make victory that much sweeter.

I mean you're kind of right, Golden Sun fans have been claiming Isaac would definitely be in this time since Brawl. Reality won't phase them.

I'm aware that they died out during Smash 4, but with all the fuss they've been making since 2015 I think they're here to stay

As far as I'm concerned, the year doesn't matter. Smash has always been relevant, so... 2008? 2013/2014? 2018? The cycle and passage of time mean fuck-all, my love for Smash is still the same and so is my dream of seeing Isaac join the roster ever since I played Melee

Guess that's how K.Rool fans felt after all these years of retards screeching about irrelevancy and whatnot. "What do you mean my character fell out of relevancy? I sure as hell didn't notice!"

That's the one I wanted, thanks user.

>WHEN I AM ALREADY IN?

Even Sakurai himself acknowledged that Richter is a literal who to most people. Being the most popular Belmont is like being the most popular unpopular person.

K Rool is a DK character, autismo. There's a bit of a difference.

jesus. why would you even do this to yourself

Honestly irrelevant characters should get more priority because theyre well liked despite,not being around a while. Characters like Palutena, Corrin, Rosalina, etc. werent highly requested even while they were "relevant" so they definitely wouldnt have been 20 years from now like K Rool.

Smash should be a museum of loved video games series and its characters. It is that but with a huge splot of "look who just happened to be around at the right time" which makes the roster not nearly as good as it couldve been

This, it took him until now to realize people wanted more than the latest fucking Fire Emblem or humanoid?

They came in with Brawl and saw the actual Nintendo characters being pushed as supports while the 3rd parties got in over them. They never played the games of the characters that appeared in Melee and even Brawl and have no investment in them. And as far as I'm concerned, Ridley and King K. Rool aren't even scratching the surface.

Not only that, the original statement about assist trophies is flawed too. The most dedicated fans WANT those characters playable. The dumb normalfags barely know who most of the playables are, how are they gonna know who the toggle-able assists are?

see
K. Rool is the most important villain from one of Nintendo's top franchises. Isaac is a protagonist from a minor Nintendo series that hasn't had an installment in years. Big difference.

Because Yea Forums are becoming NPCs addicted to LE EPIC SALT XD BTFO culture and don't like it when any notable presence of people have a genuine love for something anymore.

BK is a popular one to hate in particular since their fanbase is stubborn and can't be shamed or ridiculed into relative silence Genofags or Isaacfags were (plus it helps that BK has only gotten proven to be a no show so far but not yet fully deconfirmed unlike Geno or Isaac).

When did I claim otherwise? I'm just saying my support and passion is the same

Because we let him get away with it. That and free yous.

Attached: 1525513309080.jpg (669x1044, 248K)

He's the most popular candidate still standing, so naturally people will shit on him for the sole purpose of getting attention. They did it for Ridley, and they did it for K. Rool.
And the best part is, being on an anonymous board, people can spout their retarded nonsense and then pretend they never said any of it if the character actually gets in.
Remember when K. Rool got revealed? And all these posters scurried away like roaches, never to be seen again?

That model looks so fucking shit my god

Never really play the Golden Sun series, but it seem like a bad excuse to say a game series is bad because of bad sales

It's also an inconsistent argument since FE has the third most characters in Smash, even before the gacha waifu game came out.

Has there ever been a time Sakurai didnt contradict himself whenever making a statement like this?

>However, if we don’t have these types of fighters, and we only had typical “hero/heroine” type fighters in the lineup, there’s not much difference. It’s probably not very interesting. Correct?
Fucking THIS. I’m glad Sakurai gets it. We don’t want more boring JRPG protags like FE characters, Sora, or Erdrick. Give un some interesting stuff like Mario Villains or Pikmin characters and/or creatures.

>What's with the hate towards Banjo?
unironic answer, it's literal discordfags formulating a plot to destroy smash threads by spreading anti-banjo/geno/isaac/popular character shit to the point where nu-Yea Forums would adopt it. And it worked.

>Legacy

I think it's less of that and more of "he's the fucking Donkey Kong Country villain that has been a staple for more than three games and was merely forgotten/underused as time went by" because they didn't want him to become as worn as fucking Bowser who definitely has overstayed as a villain over all these years and despite that, hasn't really done anything fuck all except "lol I wanna marry the princess against her will" and he definitely no longer feels as threatening because of it.

Fuck, man, I don't care if he's the original villain, fucking change SOMETHING.

I really want Banjo, but until Banjo Threeie gets announced, hes not getting in Smash.

Steve is coming first to Smash. After that its a battle between Master Chief and Banjo.

>someone spent time doing this

that's a yikes from me

That on one hand he says unexpected, unknown, random characters keep the series fresh, but then says that piranha plant was a good choice because he's well known, yet some random one off "hero or heroine" wouldn't be because they're not well known, even though that's been a cornerstone of Smash since Smash 64 with Ness and Captain Falcon.

>forgot to include (((them)))

>Smash 4 moveset to a new Echo
Things is, Smash 4 Ganondorf is different from Falcon, so he'd be a clone.

Which is still preferable.

>plantfags so desperate to be relevant that they're shitting on fellow irrelevantfags
Kino

I'm using "Echo" the same way Sakurai does: to nebulously categorize a low effort clone. It's inconsistent how it's applied. Ken is almost Dr. Mario levels of different from Ryu.

Ken only got the label because he was the original echo fighter, he's the sole exception. Dr. Mario is just Melee Mario if you don't like FLUDD, completely different.

Echo Fighter has been applied consistently. Ken is the only odd one out and Sakurai noted that.

LOL so true

>What's with the hate towards Banjo?
Banjofags are unbearable. Most of them, at least. Especially the ones that claim everyone who doesn't want Banjo is a Stevefag and a zoomer.

Isn’t Isaac the epitome of a generic anime swordsman?

Yes, but that'd okay because he's not FE :)

>I think it's less of that and more of "he's the fucking Donkey Kong Country villain that has been a staple for more than three games and was merely forgotten/underused as time went by"

So, because of legacy?

In appearance, yes; probably would be in Smash too because I don't trust Sakurai to make a faithful moveset.

But Isaac uses a sword in the game.

He’s a generic anime swordsman in the same way King K. Rool is a generic Bowser clone.

A faithful Isaac moveset would just be Isaac using a sword for his normals and magic for his specials.

You can pretend Isaac doesnt use a sword but he does.

Yeah, he'd just be a Robin echo.

He can use axes and maces too
So the swordsman argument goes out of the window, unless if he has to use one of the magical swords

Shhh, he never played Golden Sun.

IMO Piranha Plant was a missed opportunity. It should have had a move set that involved various SMB1 mobs like goombas, koopas, bloopers as well, and even work in some OG Mario Bros things too. Its just really boring being just the paranah plant it self

>He can use axes and maces too
But he mostly uses a sword and is featured with a sword pretty much everywhere.

Yeah and Link in BOTW can use like 30 different weapons but he uses the Master Sword cause that’s his main thing.

They’re not gonna give Isaac an mace just cause he CAN use one. He’d probably use the Light Blade.

Are you implying that a developer like Sakurai can't take liberties?

Game and Watch and Duck Hunt already have similar gimmicks, and at that point it wouldn’t be piranha plant it’d just be called Mario Bros which is dumb.

Isaac's main weapon is his psynergy, not his sword. What he holds is perfectly interchangeable.

So basically he's the generic jrpg protagonist except he can use weapons other than swords and magic
oh wow so he's still generic and nothing had changed

Well, did Sakurai give Ike an axe?

I haven't played any of the Telius games so I can't tell you why he didn't.

>Inkling
>literal who
Retard.

so what you're saying is he's a generic magic protagonist

He's a silent protag (in the first game) so I don't get what's your point.

Honestly, don't expect Isaac to use any weapon besides the sword he's usually portrayed with. And don't expect his normals to involve magic.

Captain Falcon didn't become a literally who outside of Smash until around the time of Brawl, and by that point he was firmly established as a Smash Bros fighter.

>don't expect any magic in normals
Why? Because of memes? Even Sakurai took some inspiration from mods in Ridley's moveset.

>Dark Pit
Echo fighter, even in Smash 4 he clearly was in all but name
>Captain Falcon
Built off of the remnants of Dragon King and F-Zero was popular at the time with X being relatively new

Stop being a faggot, Golden Sun has haemorrhaged sales with every subsequent release and clearly Camelot nor Nintendo care about it.

Fuck off Microdick. Beg Sony to shill your dead console and its literal who "mascots".

ROB and DHD are iconic though?

Game and Watch arguably less so, but still.

lets count how many pieces of official art have isaac using his sword, and then how many have him using magic. Looks like 0:3 to me. Just because people spam the a button to beat the game doesnt make him primarily a sword user, though he does use a sword.
thelostwaters.com/gallery/index.php?/category/11

Most pictures with Isaac show him with a sword equipped. He's a swordsman.

Who prefers using magic. Just like how Fox has a blaster but prefers using his hands and feet.

is it drawn, or sheathed in combat? does carrying around a hammer, nails, and a tape measure make someone a carpenter?

Are you seriously arguing that Isaac isn't a swordsman after being shown off with a sword in official art?

no, im saying that he doesnt primarily rely on the sword, therefore he isnt primarily a swordsman.

Who?

i cant believe you dont know who piranha plant is, one of the most iconic mario villains.

remember when it was based to just want whatever characters you wanted as long as you weren't cocks about it

pepperidge farms remembers

So when Melee was announced?

Melee was based

It all went sour when people started to imagine there is a "line" and Banjofags / Genofags started to attack everyone who was "cutting the line" since those characters had not been supported for years. Banjo and Geno fans are among the most toxic elements of the Smash fandom.

There's literally no good reason outside of shitposting. People here will start shitflinging over anything, and rosterfagging is the perfect storm for that. Remember for years when Cloud was a Goku-tier choice? Now everybody treats him like a normal addition. In other words, fuck rosterfags, fuck relevancyfags, and fuck shitposters.

Melee is the best game in the series because of the sheer variety and replayability of its single player content.

why do banjofags think their character is on the same level as simon belmont or even k.rool?

except k rool was one of the most requested characters in japan. of course he would be added. same with ridley, he was highly requested by the western audience, so sakarai caved in and added him.

Also they both come from successful franchises, and I supposed sakarai felt the roster needed more villains/rivals so they were the obvious choice to add

but geno, skullkid and Isaac? they dont really add much to the roster at all

>a gun puppet, a geomancer and a dark mage add less to the roster than Metroid's Charizard
Lmao

Ridley predates Charizard by 10 years retard

Sakurai certainly thinks so, and his opinion is the only one that matters in this.

That's not the point
You can't say that Ridley would offer more to the roster when he's the least unique out of all the newcomers barring Isabelle. Not to mention that Charizard covered the dragon quota beforehand


It took 5 games and a whole lot of bitching to put Ridley in Smash.

Steveposting is fucking dead. Reminder that virginben killed of steve, Hitagi admitted they were full of shit and no other relevant or credible leaker supports steve, the redflags should have been raised from the very beginner, reminder that virginben was supporting steve from day one and yet he knew nothing of the plant or Joker, let me also just say that ultimate gave us Ridley and Rool, two heavily requested and fan favorite characters, Banjo is also heavily requested and a fan favourite, why would nintendo pass up on the opporttuinty to add such a well requested character that is guranteed to make them money? combined with the rare sprits, his chances are already looking better than steve's chances ever were.

If that wasn't enough proof of how dead Steve then let me also remind you stevecucks of the fact that Mojang, fucking MOJANG don't support steve getting, they shot that shit down, Spencer on the otherhand has supported Banjo time and time again.

And let me just say this one last time, steveposting is fucking dead.

yeah that's stupid as fuck but it isn't even just banjofags and genofags. hardcore fans everywhere are toxic pieces of shit. plantfags, stevefags, banjofags, genofags, erdrickfags, everyone has a fuckload of bad apples.

not all of them are bad, though. i know some stevefags and genofags who are chill and pretty based. not everyone is entitled as fuck and is just chill enough to be like, "oh, this character? mite b cool"

>stealing Geno's slot
There is no such thing as stealing a slot.

i'd argue against this because slotfaggotry is stupid, but let's be real, he kind of is. god knows square won't allow more than another rep if and only if erdrick is in. they're stingy as fuck, there's no way we're getting more than one new se rep and an abysmal chance at even getting the 'one'

There is in the case of Squaresoft only getting one DLC rep per game.

Most Genofags have utterly convinced themselves that we're getting 40 seasons of DLC so no one can use logic like "one fighter per third party company" against them. Slots are a thing. Sakurai admitted it with Pokemon.

Probably not. It's pretty pathetic.

Nintendo already got the rights to use Genos likeness, otherwise there wouldn't be a spirit. If anything the plant took his spot, not Loto.

Bomberman being revealed as an AT the day after his creator fucking died is still hilarious to me. Jesus Christ, Sakurai.

spot-stealing shit is stupid, i agree

but so is claiming that a character was factually never considered or definitely considered

don't know, don't care either way, we're getting what we're getting and no amount of "BUT THIS CHARACTER WAS SUPPOSED TO GET IN" will change that

>bear and bear

>Slots are a thing.
Nope. The entire roster is planned at the very start of development. Not all characters take the same amount of time to develop either, so they have to take into account of that. Knowing that you'll want to include a new Pokemon and preparing your development plan around that fact does not mean that slots exist. Smash Bros rosters have always been planned based on what Sakurai thinks is possible based on his development team. Slots have nothing to do with it, and previous games have had the team add more characters than originally planned, cut characters that were originally planned or both.

A claim where you're 99% likely to be correct doesn't sound bad at all.

Sakurai has the last word, tho

Sakurai himself said that his only responsibility was deciding if a character can be a fighter or not. And we don't know the number of characters that Nintendo gave to Sakurai. For all we know, Sakurai could have gotten 5 characters from Nintendo that he accepted.

>"We should stop adding hero/heroine characters because they're predictable lol"
>coming form the same guy who willingly put in 7 same faced, same personality, same weapon wielding FE characters
Fuck you Sakurai, P. Plant is a shitty meme people stopped using after 3 days. I would much rather take a "predictable" fighter people actually requested over a shitty "lol what a shock :)" character no one ever touches. You can't pull shit like this after we straight up had a ballot. Wii Fit, Duck Hunt and ICs are some of the least used characters in the entire game and Plant is on the fast track to join them.

Attached: 1534509982011.jpg (998x749, 81K)

There is no way Sakurai didn't personally choose Joker.

Joker seems like a character Nintendo would pick. Nintendo has a great relationship with Atlus and Sega.

Didn't he say he also based the menu off of P5's interface?

God, Joker is going to be broken as fuck. He'll make Smash 4 Bayonetta look like Ultimate's Bowser Jr. I can feel it.

I would expect Nintendo to pick someone like Jack, Flynn or Nanashi over a Playstation exclusive character. Sakurai is a big fan of Persona 5 though and the menus in ultimate were even partly inspired by it.

Is Jr. in Ultimate that bad? I do fairly well with him online. Maybe I'm just a spamming motherfucker

He's objectively the worst character in the game. You're probably doing okay with him because nobody's ever faced him before.

Why would Nintendo pick less marketable and well known characters? And we don't know shit about P5R yet.

Yeah, Corrin totally plays the same as Marth

Jack Frost is pretty marketable.

Even as a genofag, I can't help but laugh at OC's like this. Even if we didn't get in, at least we're still getting some acknowledgement through memes which is helping keep us afloat.

Not as marketable as an anime twink with a gun.

He is. But not as a playable fighter in Smash Bros. Jack Frost wouldn't have had the massive blowout that Joker had if revealed as a character.

If anything, K Rool proved the relevancy argument correct. K Rool needed the ballot to get in while characters like Inkling and Isabelle were getting in regardless.

>objectively
you know Little Mac is in this game, right?

To a small extent richter and simon too since he also pointed out how hakf of simons moveset is lifted from richter and a small amount of richters is lifted from simons games so they kind of echo eachother.

When Melee development started, Sakurai didn't even have access to Rare assets (although that changed later), Smash itself was much more Japan centric initially, only getting a worldwide push in the middle of Melee's development itself.

>muh tiers
take a shower before trying to make an argument

Ike and Robin too.

no they didn't, retard

I don’t understand the argument about only heros/heroines in the game.
Did I just imagine Bowser, Bowser Jr, K Rool, Ganondorf, Ridley, Dark Samus, Wolf, Dedede, Meta Knight, etc? Also, why not Toad then if we are talking about characters everybody knows?

Simon and Richter are an odd case. If Sakurai wanted, he could have easily had Richter been the original fighter while Simon was an Echo Fighter. Even then, both characters are virtually identical except their down special affecting red Pikmin and grenades differently.

>i don't want to be predictable by adding another hero character
>here's your next FE lord, btw
IT'S FINE WHEN SAKURAI DOES IT
IT'S FINE WHEN IT'S ABOUT THE GLORIOUS FE FRANCHISE

Roy is in exact the same situation as Ganondorf though. He got revamped animations and modified attacks but it's all based on his melee moveset. A Roy with an original moveset should be throwing fire and explosions as projectiles... they even added a straight reference to his projectile animation... but without a projectile for his final smash.

>Did I just imagine Bowser, Bowser Jr, K Rool, Ganondorf, Ridley, Dark Samus, Wolf, Dedede, Meta Knight, etc?
It took forever to get to those characters compared to each game getting flooded with hero/heroine characters.

I'd rather Ganondorf share moves with Falcon than him becoming Ike 2.0.

I never implied he was. But he is apart of Nintendo history for being a big deal during the N64 days along with warerare in general (rare being the ones that made K.Rool for god sakes). So I thought it would be nice for Banjo to get some rep in Smash if possible. I fucking adore boomer characters like Simon in the game and I just want more.

>tfw you don't have to worry about your literal who

As much as people rag on Nuts and Bolts,I think it could actually be a potentially awesome special move for Banjo. Kazooie pulls out the magic wrench and summons a swirling mass of parts. Depending on the direction you input, they'll build a different machine to help themselves in the fight. There is obvious stuff like a plane, hovercraft, or kart for starters but you could also do stuff like a melee chain-saw for them to carry/swing (reference to Conker), or maybe a small rocket that flies straight up like from Jetpac? The possibilities are pretty endless.

Weakest bait I’ve seen all day

For Smash Ultimate? Yeah she is.

And really Ashley is just a minor character from what is already a minor series. Smash Bros. doesn't have too many unique (as in, not clone/semi-clone/echos like Falco, Dark Pit, Wolf, etc) unique secondary characters. They're all just notable characters from Nintendo's top franchises.

And that's why Palutena is really lucky, because while she herself is important to Kid Icarus, the series itself is super tiny in comparison to the likes of Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Kirby and Metroid.

>already established AT can be playable in the same game

>Rosalina
Main character. Has even been playable before in main Mario games.
>Ashley
Uhhhh... she appeared in some stickers?

Although he doesn't have a Piranha Plant one I'd rather have a Paper Mario who gets assisted by his companions, who are mostly of species that are enemies in mainstream Mario games. You'd be repping Mario enemies and Paper Mario at the same time and it would be a reason to have them as one character without all being on stage together like Pikmin or Ice Climbers.
The fact that the Mario minion who got in just so happens to be perhaps the most well-known that isn't a Paper Mario companion know gives me false hope for Paper Mario…

Rosalina isn't exactly a great comparison because she's a mainline Mario character, one that appeared in two of the most critically acclaimed games ever made, and ergo that makes her a bigger deal than most characters.

Like what said, the only 'minor' Nintendo franchise to have a non-clone non-protagonist character is Kid Icarus, and well, a lot of that is owed to Sakurai bias.

Why can't people understand that the roster has characters that appeals to a variety of people? Even if a character doesn't appeal to you, there's certainly other characters that do. Lose some weight, fatties.

Golden Sun wasn't even in the top 20 best selling games for that system.

that nigga aint even on a nintendo console wtf

he's still a fraud tho

Neither was Cloud until this month.

Weird how he leaked Incineroar that early, cause it was Decedueye originally as the gen 7 rep, but was changed at the last second to Incineroar.

This was confirmed by Sakurai himself.

Lmfao.

You forgot your crying wojak, falseflagger

>Sakurai: While I was having talks with The Pokémon Company, they had shared with me some of the development details for the upcoming Pokémon Sun & Moon games. Up until the very end it was between Decidueye and Incineroar – which one should I choose? I felt like I could do interesting things with either of them, but in the end, I went with Incineroar.
Incineroar was picked around Sun and Moon's release. What the fuck are you talking about?

>he thinks last second changes for a character actually happen
Do you actually have any idea how game development works? Roy's game got delayed but he still made it in Melee because they couldn't make any big changes to the roster this late in development.
God you rosterfags are really dumb. Double digit IQ mouth breathers.

lemme ask something
does it even matter who we're laughing at now, so long as they're mad?

It's funny cause Vergeben basically went with the safest choice in the Pokemon franchise.

I'd say the smug ones are the best ones to laugh at so they fall harder. Banjo and Sora fans are probably the best bet right now since Geno and Waddle Dee fans have already lost.

>Safest choice
People were circlejerking Lycanroc, Decidueye and Mimikyu. And even then, that user is a fucking retard if he seriously thinks Incineroar was only added 3 or so months before release.

Vergeben can be right and wrong sometimes

Mostly wrong.

The only circlejerking I saw was Decidueye

yeah, incineroar was so "safe" that rosterfags gave decidueye a 90% chance to be in smash instead. good point!

SOUL

I see, honestly I didn't want a new Pokemon character but at least the one we got is fun

>Decidueye was considered as well

You might as well say "What Pokemon rep does NOT make it into Smash" because a Pokemon rep is almost always guaranteed. Sakurai's interview about "hottest pokemon in theaters" coincides with Incineroar as well as Incineroar being considerably easier to make a moveset than Decidueye.

lol that would require effort

by the way, are you enjoying being thrown against lopsy looking ropes and being forced to see such shoddiness every single time?

But it brought in a ton of identify politics into Smash Bros threads. Even more than usual. Now rosterfags are shitting down the throats of other rosterfags and it's a big mess.

oh, those guys
big deal, if people wanted them gone they wouldn't reply to their shitpost threads
but i say the ballot did more good than bad, at least for the games, elsewise we wouldnt have the new characters we do

>Ice Climbers
>The first "Retro" rep of the series, something that Sakurai has done several times in the past
So literal whos, just like Isaac.

The movie had shit to do with any Pokemon getting in. And Sakurai seemed perfectly ok with making a projectile based character. It seems like he even had ideas on what projectiles to give to Decidueye.
>They [Incineroar and Decidueye] were both strong as characters – had it been Decidueye, I could’ve done a variety of things with projectiles and the like.
He just ended up preferring pro-wrestling over archery. No bullshit.

>Dragon King
If the game had remained this and released as originally intended, nobody would still care about it in the slightest. The roster is the heart of Smash, regardless of what elitists say.

It would have most likely have been a one-off game only released in Japan

Says the fucking hack who keeps adding anime sword fighter #34 with the personalities of bland goodie 2 shoes rotten plank.

Smash has honestly moved past its roster, especially since the series will always have the core Nintendo characters playable. It's really the gameplay that defines Smash Bros the most. Without its fun gameplay, it wouldn't have lasted as long as it has.

Gameplay:
Melee > 64 > Ultimate > 4 > Brawl
Content:
Melee > Ultimate > Brawl > 64 > 4

decidueye would literally just be another pit clone. how does that take more effort than creating a wrestler character, which smash didn't have?

I'm so sick of starters and elemental types I could shit blood.

sounds like you're just sick of Pokemon desu

Wow it's like Sakurai based Duck Hunt's new concept partly on them or something

Proof?

All of the characters in the Fighter Pass will be 3rd Party. I’m 90% sure. But that doesn’t mean we still can’t get characters who aren’t apart of the pass and can be from already represented series.

True that.

3rd parties betray the spirit of Smash and tarnish its integrity.

It's just an assumption because no one knows who brave is

He wasn't talking about the brave thing

Smash has evolved past being about Nintendo

That's not a good thing.

It is a good thing. We used up all the good Nintendo characters. All that's left to add is Rex, Springman, a new FE protagonist and a Gen 8 Pokemon.

Mega Man, Erdrick (in Japan), Simon, are all more recognizable Nintendo characters than Ashley.

I mean, they pretty much are "Nintendo" characters, compared to shit like Cloud and Joker. Joker in particular is a terrible choice because he's introducing countless children to an M-rated game where you fuck your teacher.

You misunderstood where I was coming from.

There's nothing m-rated about P5. Even the teacher fucking is pretty tame, since boys fantasize about it sometimes.

>というか、任天堂すら海外の意見を必要以上に聞きすぎている気がする
>ネットでうるさい外人ってジーノとかクロノとかバンカズ求めてるガチ老害なので言うこと聞かなくていいです
For the first time, I am seeing foreign hate on Jap smash threads, I guess the mix of too many "only the west cares about this" character getting in and they finally realizing just how much foreigners hate DQ is doing the trick.

What first party characters could nintendo even add at this point?
Dante must die mode:franchise without any reps only
all that i can think of is a ARMS rep but the game is too new. maybe in the next smash

Doesn't the same game have a reprehensible villain who does the same thing Kawakami does but gets demonized for it?

i'll always be rooting for our boys to come back, even if it isn't in smash. a new golden sun would be bomb, and i'd love to see geno and mallow in a new mario rpg or just. something.

good luck, isaacbro! let's be positive! their chances are pretty grim in general, but the fans will always keep our boys alive!

No

As much as I hate the idea, I feel like by now you Steveposters are demonstrably the most deserving of any shitposter character. Godspeed.

Attached: 1549057113224m.jpg (853x1024, 78K)

That's what they get for having such poor taste in characters over there.

why do you retards keep echoing this fake quote

I could probably see Issac playable in the next game, but since Geno is own by Square, I don't see him getting in, unless Square is more open to Geno inclusion. Don't really care for either character

Japan's picks always struck me as better than the West's "Durr Master Chief"
And like it or hate it, Dragon Quest is a fitting pick for Smash.

I'm misunderstanding pretty awfully here, yes.

Just to make sure I'm getting it right, you're a gay man that's speaking an unfortunate phenomenon to me, another gay man, speaking about too many strongfats on straight porn, right?

5) Banjo Kazooie
4) Geno
3) Viewtiful Joe
2) Bandana Dee
1) Roto
Opinions?

DQ is a good pick for Smash, but the shit taste of Smashfags is so prevalent that they've chosen to bandwagon for the blandest possible DQ character

I'm a straight man built like K. Rool who wishes there were girls who appreciated the body type as much as gay men on Yea Forums do.

Why are we calling him "Roto" now all of a sudden?

Where'd you get this list? Viewtiful Joe is pretty surprising and I thought Banjo was more of a Western pick, everything else seems pretty par the course for them.

>The quintessential DQ protag is bland

>OH PLEASE SHOVEL SHIT IN MY MOUTH NINTENDO

Viewtiful Joe would be great to have, but I doubt, maybe if we get Viewtiful Joe 3

Also, why the fuck is joe on there? Not that i'm complaining.

Some japanese fans do want Banjo Kazooie

Which once again leads me to ask, what's the source on this list?

>Where'd you get this list?
From his ass. Don't believe anything you see on Yea Forums.

I could see Ryu getting in, but I don't think Dante is getting in

He is the blandest possible choice and you would know that if you actually liked DQ
Anyone pushing for Loto is not a real DQ fan, they're a Smashfag pretending to like him because e-celebs and fake leaks told them to

Don't know, probably a fake list, just saying that Banjo is a somewhat of a popular pick in japan

>Anyone pushing for Loto is not a real DQ fan

O O F

DQ2 has a hero without magic and Luminary can only use swords. DQ3's popularity also can't be ignored, 11 even used it's map theme to lure back fans.

Oh, I get it now. For some reason, your initial post somehow has made me get really confused to understand your interpretation. Sudden brainfart, I suppose, so sorry about that.

I'm a full gay man, but still, I'm really sorry to hear that. I can only guess that girls, theses days, prefer more men who are more lean on their appearance and present some beautiful and primary cutesy features. In simple words, most might prefer bishõnen "men", boys.

I could suggest you to try being bisexual for just one moment, and see if you will like it or not, but of course, I would never force that to you. It's just suggestion.

In the end, don't give up. I'm most than sure that there will be some woman on this world that will stay hypnotized upon the sight of you and your muscles, and wish that she were your girlfriend. Don't give up!
