Is his Smash gameplay trailer really going to be shown at a fucking concert?

>To be fair he's more well known than any Fire Emblem character.
By what metric

the problem isn't even that joker is being held off because of the concert

its the fact the direct in general is being fucking held off because of this shit.
fucking persona-fags caused the direct delay. i wanted reggies farewell direct.

fuck you Yea Forums

yes
atlus are petty enough to make it happen

Directs are pre-recorded you know. Reggie could still show up in one.

yeah but that ruins the fucking point.
"dude lets have his farewell AFTER he leaves and not before"

They're gonna show him off simply because he's the first DLC character in a ver popular game, and a guest star with probably a very unique gameplay. Retard.

I think you missed the point but okay lol

joker gonna only get 2 fucking songs
callng it now

Not really, its just going to be a recorded "farewell and thanks for the memories" message, its not something he needed to do live when he actually left.

As an idort I can't tell if this is a false flag or a seething Nintendo/Smash fanboy.

An earlier thread

When is this concert?

Also this April 19th date seems suspicious. Are they really gonna have some sort of direct literally a day or 2 before the release date? Seems bit soon to showcase a new character and new game modes. I feel like some sort of announcement should have happened last week. I know these things don't necessarily have to be showcased in a direct but it feels more likely..At least a mini direct. Also fuck Homerun hitting contest. Give me Break the Targets and Board the Platforms you fucks. It's literally a platforming fighting game but there are no modes that utilize the platforming elements.

The big question is:
Will they tease the next DLC in the same segment they show off Joker gameplay?

Someone translate those characters

Ur mom gay

I'm working on it but some of the characters are really hard to decipher since they're intricate kanji and the image is fuzzy
It already seems kinda suspicious though

There is no direct, they'll just launch with a patch notes that go over new features.

Character 2 will be announced at t he Fire Emblem festival in early May.

If it was the 19th we'd have already gotten the "back your replays" message.

April 24th and 25th.

No, wait for the Fire Emblem event the very next week after.

You're giving them ALOT of credit. Maybe too much

It is a false flag. Nintendies eat everything up no matter how terrible because “they worked hard on it uwu my smol beans”

When has anything worth a shit ever been shown at a fucking concert? Only dumb retards do this like Yoko Taro and probably some other brain dead Square Enix director.

And Atlus thinks they're hot shit like Square Enix so...

i'd take a fire emblem fighter for that
you clearly underestimate the smash dev team's fe boner

You'd think so but people said the same thing during Smash 4's DLC season

Do you really think it's fake? I mean, it's possible. But when did we find this image? Is it worth making a fake leak about a character everyone knows about that's going to be disproven in less than a week?

?な??の??の兄弟のビデオゲームのすばらしいアイコンを結合する
That's all I can decipher, though I'm not sure that "結合" is accurate to what it says, but it's my best guess. Can anyone figure out some of those missing kanji?
The big string of のs is strange to me
It translates to something along the lines of "Combine with the excellent icons of the video game of the brothers of ???"
Kinda hard to translate it in a natural way without knowing the whole sentence
The whole thing seems fishy to me

I think the image originates here boards.fireden.net/v/thread/458596258/
It was presented alongside a leak of additional info so perhaps it was made to sell that.

I found it
Doesn't seem too outlandish, personally. We did have that one Ken picture get leaked early pre-release and no one paid attention to that, so it could be real. We'll find out this Friday anyhow.

>down grab
What is a down grab? Does he mean down throw? Joker says a line of dialogue every time he down throws?
>Joker has a unique UI only on his stage
Possible but would be bizarre
Plus the text seems questionable

I think he just means that the down throw animation is the same one Joker uses for when he sneaks up on enemies, hops on their back, and tears off their mask. I'd be surprised if that wasn't incorporated into his moveset. But yeah, some of that stuff seems strange.

>Worst reveal ever
>Everyone talking about
>Multiples reactions videos

Fuck off

you can't honestly think this when Corrin exists

They can release the trailer after the concert, they know Smash idiots will pay money just to see a trailer early

Any other answer is objectively wrong (although if FE Expo has a fighter reveal then it's absolutely certain that it'd beat Corrin).

Okay fag whatever u say

Why are Japs such tards bros?

You cannot possibly say that when we've had stuff like Corrin, Isabelle, and Incineroar before.

That's a good way to put it. They really act as if Persona 5 is the next Final Fantasy 7. Sure, it sold more than the series usually does, but under 3 million isn't THAT amazing. Atlus are just getting high off the smell of their own farts.

2.5 million after like 2 years at $20 on an install base of 150 million. I'm honestly not sure why everyone was so impressed.

Have you seen what an atlus concert looks liked? Its massive. I wouldn't think of any other way to reveal Joker to people who cared about him to begin with.

Because its one of the few JRPG titles that can do those numbers without the Final Fantasy or Dragon quest logo carrying it. I mean what's next really? Tales? Its fucking dead.

>durr nintendo dumb so it must be tru

>He thinks someone gives a shit about it

Eevee is a pokeball pokemon

He really was. It's a fact.
>You can argue that he was a character literally no one wanted. Why? Because he and his game didn't even exist yet. Every other character in the game is from something people played, may have enjoyed and possibly wanted represented in Smash. Him? He was purely an advertisement. And for a Fire Emblem that wasn't even very well-received.
>Consider the above statement and remember that they spent that valuable dev time creating a totally unique moveset for him. Roy was also put into Melee before his game released, but at least he was basically an echo/very low-effort clone back then. Corrin's development time and money could've been put toward literally any other new character.
>They expected people to pay extra for this character. They're lucky smashfags are usually completionist autismos who want the full roster. But I'd love to see Corrin's DLC number sales compared to the other characters, just to prove how he was the weakest link of the bunch.
And then of course the whole spiel about Fire Emblem being way over-represented as is. But I still have johns about this nigger. Out of all the 70-something characters in the whole game, and he's the only single one I don't like.

Well look at it in a marketing perspective. The more people in the west who play smash that are exposed to Joker, the more new fans it creates.

Same user here. I want Steve since it’s make sense as he is popular character in the west

>always in final destination form
why can't they just have an option of getting a random selection from a small list of tournament-legal stages that no one would complain about? Playing nothing but FD isn't competitive. Playing nothing but battlefield isn't competitive. There should be FD, battlefield, PS, smashville, town and city, etc, just include all the basic variants that are conducive to non-retarded gameplay and then pick one at random.

Because no one actually gave a shit about Octopath and XC2. Where are the daily shitposting threads portbegging for XC2 and Octopath? Hell the Octopath "Thanks for beta testing" shitpost threads didnt even last a week. Those 2 were a flash in the pan due to it being stuck for the Switch and they looked promising, but no one actually cares for them in the grand scheme of JRPGs

>you clearly underestimate the smash dev team's fe boner
so where's the Echoes and gacha rep we were supposed to get in the base game then?
oh wait, we got a non-recent lord for a cruddy echo instead

>nintendies will buy anything
What a surprise

They are on a whole different level in terms of how it impacted JRPGs in recent years. How about the Tales of series? Those titles print money, atleast pre-Zestiria but no one actually gave a shit about them in the West.

a fucking pot was in

Also, Corrin debatably caused the explosion of the "le epic salt xd stay mad" NPCs in Smash discussions that you see "ironically" bandwagoning shitty or contrarian character picks just to get people mad.

Just because the dev team has a fe boner doesn't instantly mean two characters
look at all the new remixes they got compared to other series

I just want non-P5 songs. At least give me stuff from P4 and P3.

You can gauge how something is actually popular when people talk about it often. When people make such a big deal of ports for a game then you'll know its more than what it is.

Joker was the only positive noteworthy thing from the VGAs, of course people would be excited for that compared to how blatantly soulless and bought it was for 2018.

have a brain and realize the Smash team isn't contrarian Project M devs
Neku over Sora and Crono over a DQ rep was never a realistic thing.

The Joker reveal literally invalidated God of War's GOTY award. If that doesn't spell things out for you, I dont really know.

so how come its an unreal thing for S-E to use Smash to push their current agenda? especially when sakurai stated several times Smash is great to advertise franchises.

Doesn't change the fact that people talk about it, thus making it more popular and impactful than XC2 or Octopath. I mean honestly, if this happened for something like Tales of or Ys, no one would give a shit.

>Where did all the portbegging came from

No one genuinely cares about Persona 5 or the series. It's the hype and acclaim surrounding it.

>an American-only event
Are you retarded? TGA are worldwide.

You'll trigger a xenocringer with those facts. I feel bad for the Xeno series knowing Xenocringe 2 exists.

Popularity isn't a benchmark for quality. An that's kinda of a stretch. Persona 5 is wehere the series become popular. It will never surpass going to Gaur Plain for the first time, or high yet personal stakes, or the twists and turns of Xenoblade. I like how people how only played 5 act as if they're an authority on the series

>No one cares about Persona 5 or the series

To all these people arguing about popularity for P5, isn't Joker kinda supposed to represent his own game as well as the SMT series in general? Kinda like Cloud with FF?

Lmao is this guy actaully serious? I'm sorry Xenocringe 2 ruined a series that was known for actaully being series rather then being a mess with all the anime troops in the book. The very least P5 doesn't go that far with it.

What the fuck is EVO? Also you're just being silly now. The argument was that people care more for Persona 5 than Xenoblade or Octopath. I claimed that it was because Persona has been a houshold name in JRPGs for a long time and hit critical mass when SMTIV was revealed as a 3DS exclusive, so the back and forth port begging only escalated. When Persona 5 was released, there were even more portbegging. Yes, discussions about a port did increase when Joker surprised everyone, but to say that Smash made Joker popular and to say that people care about Xenoblade just as or even more than Persona is stupid and delusional

>doing a shitload of west releases after DQXI's success
okay retard

Probably not, just Atlus autism holding things up. Don't know why they feel the need to hold concerts whenever they want to announce something.

and Xenoblade was never popular, not even as popular as P4, it was one of those "cult" games with a small following.
Xenoblade 2 was garbage and only sold because it was on the Switch during holiday season

You really think people would have cared more about that faggot Rex over Joker?
Xenoblade is one of those games that come and go and discussion about them dies because they don't even have a fandom to keep shit active like Persona or Fire Emblem does.

Joker represents Persona. No one cares about SMT

>XCX was an actual product of passion
Nah, a game where the core design only happened because they had tight budget limits doesn't seem like it's a passion project (they dumped their initial plans for an unique main character and went with custom character with focus on side-quests because they were focusing their resources on the new open world engine, and there wouldn't be enough afterwards for a lot of cinematic stuff).

The press release for his announcement outright mentions SMT though.

>The Persona games are a spinoff of the popular Shin Megami Tensei franchise, which has a long and storied history in the world of video games – with many of the games appearing on Nintendo systems. Sporting an iconic mask and a variety of weapons, Joker is the main character of Persona 5, a beloved game that won Best Role-Playing Game and was nominated for Game of the Year at last year’s The Game Awards.

Really, if he has Persona switching rather than playing like a P4A character it could be feasible rather than just empty words.

According to yes. To a large majority that claims P5 is up there with zelda. Honestly I perfer P3 over P5 but whatever.

Right, because Joker's from P5. They still chose him due to the SMT connection.
Nice job being a moron.

Fire Emblem is a known bias for him, with Awakening being his favorite of the series (and that's the only FE game that has multiple fighters, huh). Pokémon is harder to rule on, he does say that he likes to have a slot for at least one new Pokémon fighter each game (but it's impossible to tell if this is his indirect way of saying "Nintendo and Game Freak say I have to").

>>The Persona games are a spinoff of the popular Shin Megami Tensei franchise, which has a long and storied history in the world of video games – with many of the games appearing on Nintendo systems. Sporting an iconic mask and a variety of weapons, Joker is the main character of Persona 5, a beloved game that won Best Role-Playing Game and was nominated for Game of the Year at last year’s The Game Awards.
That's from the press release, and Nintendo chose the DLC slots this time smart guy

You'll make him cry user. I don't think his his entitlement for the game is strong enough to actually accept the truth and not drop fag bombs.

If springman and particularly rex were too late to be added you arnt getting edelgaurd. This single fact ruins the "obligatory fe rep" and "obligatory pokemon shill" narrative yet people still think they're getting in. Rex would've made them so much money and yet all he got was a mii costume

We all do

Marth was supposed to be in 64 in the first place
Roy was a last minute character that didn't get fucked by development hell like Lucas did

jack frost represents SMT, not persona, each persona is represented by his main character
and since joker was shilled with an overexpensive voice actor with pikachu as his sidekick while being the biggest sales in the serie, Joker will be persona's face from now on

Hope we get Anna next instead of a generic FE characters from the new game. She is the mascot after all.

Sakurai's autistic obsession with "protagonists" is seriously hurting the game by littering it with boring protagonist characters when he should be focusing on interesting characters like Jack Frost.

This. Inceldrick is the most anti-hype character imaginable.

Base roster was decided in 2015 so they didn't make the cut
DLC meanwhile was decided in 2018, putting FE three houses in the perfect position to get represented

Based

Just like incineroar, plant, and corrin.

Rex would be dlc then, which he won't be

Dude Jack Frost wouldn't be any better, he'd just do a bunch of ice moves. Plus Joker can have Jack Frost in his moveset
I never said I wanted Jack Frost, it was just an SMT reaction image

>That anyone who doubts your shitty leakers or hates Incineroar is a grinchfag
that seems to be the case
why do K.Rool autists pretend they never backed the Grinch? it had everything they wanted and they get to shit on what they hated for a few amount of days.

Base.

You forgot the yellow bitch.

Cristina voices Edelgard in 3H

Any of the mainline DQ human avatars would be dogshitly boring fighters. They literally have no gimmicks that others don't have already.

Slime would be the best way to rep DQ since it has tons of unique moveset potential, it's got a distinctive visual profile, and it's actually pretty recognizable even outside of Japan. Too bad Sakurai's protagonist autism and Japan's almost deistic worship of Erdrick makes the actually unique character option an almost impossible chance.

Yes

I don't even hate Incineroar and Piranha Plant. That's my point. You assume dis-believers of leaks are one, solid hivemind

Reread you idiot
>base roster is finalized in 2015
XC2 didn't exist in 2015 and neither did ARMS

>XC2 didn't exist in 2015 and neither did ARMS
neither did Three Houses, which was announced for Switch development the same time XB2 was
by then, all we had was Echoes, which was planned during 2015 as well.

Don't forget that Castlevaniabros got snubbed too. Two boring uninteresting fighters when we could have had motherfucking Alucard instead or even Dracula. Alucard or Dracula would have been the best way to rep Castlevania, with Soma Cruz also available.

But alas, protagonist autism ruins anything good and wonderful.

she said she not involved in Smash DLC, retard.

that not how Personas works idiot
and we're talking about a beastmaster on the battlefield, not stand-by shit
Five automatically makes him the better choice than solo Slime, who's just gonna a be moveset element like Jack Frost will be too.

I hate rex but to say he wouldn't be chosen over a bland fire emblem character is blatantly wrong.

Because samus returns released in 2017
Meanwhile FE is still in active development

Atlus is dumb as shit and like to pretend they have the power to pull off epic hype cycles when all they do is announce the announcement of oncoming projects (aka: a PNG logo and 20 second videos) after making their fans sit through worthless +2 hour long streams and events.

If SMTV doesn't turn out to be great, I'll be done with them.

If Fire Emblem is the most soulless Nintendo franchise, then Dragon Quest is the most soulless video game franchise period. It is a stagnant series that has done nothing interesting with its mainline games from the original Dragon Quest to XI. It has no intriguing stories, no interesting character designs, and nothing memorable about it. There is a reason why only Japan gives a fuck about Dragon Quest. That's why I don't want to see Dragon Quest in Smash Bros.

But if I were forced to, I'd rather see the rep be Slime than that one anime swordsman considering we already have a lot of anime swordsmen and we obviously do not need one more.

Atlus may be in charge of the marketing for it though. It may be part of the deal that Atlus has the final say on when certain reveals happen. I'd say that as far as negotiations go, that's a pretty decent tradeoff compared to Square's "you only use 2 music tracks, no remixing, also fuck putting Cloud in your shitty story mode."

This imply the west is relevant to video games. How many of the top 10 best selling consoles are western? How many of the top 5 best selling RPG franchises are western?

when is the concert happening?

Okay but I'm asking who would you want beside Joker?

Next week. The 25th. So if we don't get Joker this week, we'll know that they saved him exclusively for Atlus' bullshit show

25th is not the date you're getting Joker, 25th is the deadline until Atlus stops property jewing and allows Nintendo the privilege to reveal Joker. We'll probably get that direct the following weekend/monday before April's fully over

They have been enabled by a fanbase filled with dumb as bricks waifufags for years, the fact that many secondaries and media outlets unironically call P5 the JRPG of the generation only fuels their ego and the idea that they can get away by announcing literally nothing on every event.

Yeah of course everyone remembers demi-fiend from Nocturne such a iconic character from a very well known game.

Why would Joker be facing the camera so much in-game

Compare the sales of games to west and east. You'er just being delusional thinking "everyone" knows what DQ is beside you and a select view knowing about the series.

>tells smashfags she's not hinting a smash character at all
gee i wonder, you idiot.
and if she was on NDA, she wouldn't talk about Smash anything.

Sounds like Nintendo with every Zelda and Mario game...

Adam howden talked about it during the smash 4 lead up so your argument makes no sense

It's compared to the games that came out that year Nier and Persona looked amazing and had "phenomenal" stories. I still think P3 had a better story. Also "fuck Trump" was seen inside the game despite it not trying to be political.

Not soon enough...

what the fuck are you on about

DQ is a 70 million franchise and most western releases are average for S-E title
take FF6 and DQ8 for example, both have impressive jap sales yet their west releases are Metroid/Castlevania-tier but in reverse.

regardless, sales never been the indicator of who gets in Smash or if the series is popular anywhere.

he wasn't lying but Elmofags and Medusa posters kept using Howden's sly tweet as an excuse to stalk VAs if they're hinting anything.

i was one of the Medusa posters that believe Cree was hinting her inclusion but i was such an idiot at the time.
should've listen to the people that said not to take it seriously

That's true but I'm arguing over the overall appeal DQ has in the west which isn't very big. Especially with the newest entry not doing so well or reaching the same standards in sells the East had.

Why the fuck would this matter? They can reveal him at the concert and reveal him on the internet minutes later.

the trailer was released online right after

I mean we don't even have all the games in the series localized here.

And guess what
They can do the exact same thing at the concert

And what games we have don't do all that well. Square's SPECIAL VA WESTERN EDITION PLEASE BUY sold less than the shit Reggie rushed out the door on DS.

that doesn't mean they hate it tho

the new Dragon Quest movie somehow garnered lots of western attention to trend and S-E was satisfied with DQXI's west sales after saying they'll do more west DQ releases if it good.

also do anyone remembers all the struggle to convince Nintendo and S-E to bring over DQ games on the 3ds?

I think the point he's trying to make is: It's strange to announce the release of a character at a jp only event not too many americans will be watching rather than a global direct. Sure, they revealed Pac at a closed door event, but everyone knew when he was coming out (with the base game) that's kind of an important detail.

Erdrickfags trying to argue DQ is some world famous series will never not be hilarious for me, considering we didn't even get DQ until like 2006
Erdrick is a literal who to the entirety of Europe

Seriously I understand the appeal of the series but don't see the west liking the idea of a game series that doesn't change anything beside graphics and not taking risks on doing something new. "Don't fix what's not broken" can be applied I guess but that still means the appeal of DQ in the west will remain the same until something is done.

It's alright. They gave me a little Rex costume to amuse myself with for 5 months.
Wheeee. So fun!

> February 2020.

To add onto that. Its kinda like:
>Bro, why aren't you on Smash? Joker's out.
>He is? When did that happen?
>They released him at a concert in Japan
>Well wtf? How was I supposed to know that?
iirc, all the release dates for Smash 4's dlc were plainly given out in a direct. (Point is, they want to make it known when you should have your money ready)
I could just be pattern fagging, and maybe they will end up dropping him at the concert while the rest of the world gets only a little twitter alert as their means of knowing. Im just thinking what might be logical.

>Landing animation
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that. Everything else is on point too.

There is the best buy render...

When's the concert?

>Joker releasing almost five fucking months into the planned 12 or 13 month news schedule
>four more reveals to go over the next 7-8 months
Either they're gonna fall royally behind schedule or this shit is gonna pick up QUICK.

I'm starting to think we're gonna get at least one first-party character at this rate. if only so Nintendo can announce and release them at their own pace without dealing with third-party bullshit.

Have played any other Persona besides 5?

It's so disproportionate. I'm hoping they got a fucking hell of a head start on those 4 other packs in the meantime.

You're delusional if you think that Nintendo would risk losing money by adding a first-party DLC instead of third-party DLC.

How would that make them lose money exactly?

First-party DLC = Less profit than third-party DLC because less people talk about it, less people buy it and less people care about it. It's simple business.

If anything, Joker's giving off a bad first impression, given how glacial Atlus is with their reveals. People aren't going to want to buy more DLC if we keep getting updates like this.

>there are people who legitimately think Nintendo is gonna bow down to Atlus and hold off Joker until the 25th for a JAPAN REGION LOCKED CONCERT ON NICONICO that takes place at 3AM PST

jesus christ I knew personafags and smashfags were two of the dumbest fanbases here but put them together and you get a whole new level of retardation

It's not about the concert, it's about the announcements in the concert you absolute retard

user consider the following
>licensing costs are nonexistent because they're using their own IP
If anything making first party dlc would save them millions

Corrin was the worse selling DLC

This is just an Atlus thing so far. Capcom never took control of Nintendo's Smash news cycle. Konami didn't either. Not even Scrooge Enix. After all this, I greatly doubt Joker is safe from the Great Purge next game.

Exactly.

they already got the base game for that

>nintendo gets annoyed
>third party gets banned from smash 6
>no more crossover games
>sega dumps atlus because they cost them the mario olympics games
Serves them right for trying to have six month hype cycles.

Attached: 1529345761296.jpg (402x261, 64K)

Why would that mean anything? They didn't hold off Cloud until FF7 came out on Switch.

Smash announcements have always been shown specifically at times where both Japanese and Western viewers can watch, the only exception I can think of is Shulk.

Didn't know we had sales numbers for dlc

The first gameplay showing off Bayo and Corrin following the direct was shown on Niconico

We also saw in-game footage and gameplay breakdowns of Bayo and Corrin right when they were announced. Now, four years later, where it's the middle of the month of when Joker's allegedly coming out and the only thing that resembles any in-game footage of him is him dropping down with his ass facing the camera in a black background.

I have to wonder, what will win out?
>Sakurai learning the lessons of Smash 4 and avoiding adding yet more of a franchise that most Smashfags despise
>IntSys getting pissy and huffy, demanding a DLC slot again

This shit never stops making me laugh, I literally had no idea what his name was until the obscurefags came out of the woodwork

IS, for sure. You're a fool if you think one of their tactics at the FE Expo won't be revealing a Three Houses character for Smash.

Stop it
Please

He didn't learn shit from smash 4 considering Chrom is a thing

>Atlus JRPG faggot
>Nintendo JRPG faggot
>still some possibility of a DQ JRPG faggot
Holy fuck I'm glad I didn't spend any of my own money on the Pass. I'm so sorry, Dom, your money went to waste.

Chrom's just a low-effort echo fighter.
>making a whole new FE character from an unreleased game with an original moveset, animations, assets that be could be used for a million other deserving characters instead
That's what we're wary of. Another Corrin.

Doesn't matter if he's an echo, the fact that he looked at FE and Pokemon and thought "yeah they need another fighter" shows he doesn't give a shit

It's not going to be a character from the new game though. It's going to be Lyn since she's a Brave Boss in the FE Heroes game

Characters will release every 2 and a half months, roughly speaking. That's the space between Plant and Joker and that will get them to February 2020 with even spacing.
Also, direct this week and Joker next week, because ninty always gives one week notice before replay breaking updates and he can't come the week of the 29th because that's golden week and no one will be in the office to release him.

This deserves its own tier if it happens, because it combines the worst of Roy and Corrin.
>Smash shilling an FE game before it's even released anywhere (Corrin's game had hit Japan IIRC when he was announced)
>an original moveset and assets being wasted on garbage that almost nobody asked for and which most people actively hope against (Roy was a borderline Echo)

25th is before golden week though

We all know IS will find some way to bend the rules to their whim.

Attached: accept.jpg (500x427, 207K)

25th Japan time is the last day before golden week. They'd have to drop him right after the show or else he wouldn't be out until May. And there's been no word of a delay yet.
If Fatlus is really fucking with the schedule they're gonna have to run the direct without whatever they're hiding amd save it for the concert.

Logical reasoning. I like it.

Attached: 1536600614565.jpg (545x580, 19K)

I'm ok with not getting Joker this week if it means at least getting smash direct news to tide ourselves over with this week.
Hope this is the case

There won't be a smash announcment at the FE expo nor at the P5 concert you austistic fucks.

Smash 3.0 update has been delayed because of the Notre Dame fire.

Hope it's Anna.

Streamed maybe but it isn’t in Japanese.

Sound logic, although i still feel atlus is enough of an asshole to drop everything at once at their event

Implying that joker will not only use Arsene.

Nintendo picked the DLC not Sakurai, he told us this.

Calling another series stagnet pretty ironic coming from a pokemonfag

he’s gonna get delayed

We know, that's what he SAID, but that was clearly a lie. He just didn't want to admit how much of a fanboy he was.

>Regarding Joker in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: “Joker will participate in Super Smash Bros. mainly because of the invitation from Sora Ltd.’s Masahiro Sakurai. That is what led to this collaboration. Because Mr. Sakurai likes Persona 5 very much, and I personally like Super Smash Bros. a lot, my first thought when I received the invitation was ‘Great!’ I was very happy to establish a relationship for this collaboration.”

Based and slimepilled.

Nintendo gave Sakurai a list that included Joker retard

it should of been him

this is the most realistic
smash direct this week, talks about joker's moveset, the new stage builder and home run contest, potentially ends with a reveal for the second dlc character, ends with joker releases next week

>inb4 there's no direct announced for this week
>mfw pic related

whats even the point, it was confirmed last year he would appear. What would a trailer do? The one at the Game Awards was perfect, we dont need some "mario and Link act shocked when they see Joker" cgi animation

show his moves, dipshit

Chrom was Japan's most popular Ballot Vote.

Then he would have said "Nintendo's invitation" you fucking mongoloids. Jesus christ. He literally said "Sakurai's invitation." Obviously it gets Nintendo's approval. Even if "Nintendo gave the list" like Sakurai CLAIMS they did (said list isn't made in a vacuum and it's not like Sakurai had no influence on said list), Sakurai didn't ring up the Atlus Brand Manager and said "Hey Nintendo wants to invite you to smash bros." He said "*I* want to invite you to smash bros." Hence the Atlus Brand Manager can say "the invitation was from Sakurai."

Pokémon is at least way more memorable than DQ

>He said "*I* want to invite you to smash bros."
Because he's the fucking director

How do you define non-retarded? Do the stages have to be symmetrical? Do they need to be a certain size? I'd rather them just pick one and say "it's always X" rather than deal with what we have now where sometimes you get a retarded stage in the rotation.

youtu.be/UppyPzIb5Y8
.

You just have to take the retarded stages out of the rotation.

>Then he would have said "Nintendo's invitation"
No it's still Sakurai's invitation. But it was Nintendo who had Joker available in a list for Sakurai to choose from.

source?
its been restated Castlevania characters, Ridley, and K.Rool were ballot influences.
Chrom was already considered for the game

you're forget Bamco's JRPG pick from the Tales series

can't happen, the direct will be for the 3.00 in general, not just joker, the other character will also probably be announced.
i says it's either this week or the next.

fuck off Jason Screier

we still didnt see Mewtwo at that one event of Sakurai talking about Takamaru tho

>plenty of project
MGR2
FUCKING
WHEN
Come on they have all the staff both at Konami and plat, it's possible.

Pokemon falls into Sakurai wank since GF confirmed he decides if and how the Pokemon gets in

What persona game is he from?

either way, that's not an excuse for your secondary retardation. especially "le obvious safe pick #3352" you fags fell for the millionth time
Five is more reasonable than Slime, timing and representation wise.

3H might be the next FElop desu
also
>Koei Temco
deugh

>Slimetard is retarded

the First SMT game

What wrong with slime? The fuck do I care if you dont like Slime or not?
