This heavely benefits third party characters with 0 spirit representation in Smash.
Dragon Quest, Banjo-Kazooie, Resident Evil (Joker has a realistic looking gun).
It doesn’t help Sora, Disney would have to let Sora be in plus several other Disney characters.
First Party characters like Sylux or Porky are less likely too, those IPs already have tons of spirits.
Looks like all the DLC fighters will be third party.

Persona isn’t a spin-off anymore.
this pretty much confirms a rare fighter thanks to the empty rare placeholders already in the files
Just another detractor from the truth.
Donald and Goofy will show up, the rest will be the trios and the villains

Why wouldn't they let Sora
oof, yikes, no one tell the spiritfags
Geno and Shantae are out, not like anyone's surprised though

There’s plenty of non-Disney, Non-FF material to use as spirits
OH NONONONO
Banjo is in.
HES FUCKING IN
we already know the entire list of DLC fighters, of course sora isn't in
we're also likely to get new capcom and namco reps so that they can resell the old mii costumes like they did tails and knuckles.

yep, he's in
Why does anyone want him in? Even as a fan it would be painful to see how watered down he'd be
So, what will Steve spirits be?

>Rest of the DLC fighters will have spirits
>Banjo
Metroid has a fuck ton of characters and enemies not as spirits (especially prime, where sylux is from). I dont see this being bad for him. Porky might be more limited though
Those were only in the game because Nintendo has the rights to those properties in Japan but didn't realize they didn't elsewhere. That's why they're unused.
Doom brings a stage and music, same as other series
>music
>e1m1 stage
Steve's getting his creeper, enderman, skeleton, zombie, and whatever the fuck else Minecraft has for spirits.
>Zombie
slow, strength boosted steve. Player and Zombie get poison damage applied to them (eigon/white pikmin)

Spider, Ender Dragon (Ridley summoning Rathalos assist trophy), The Wither (Game and Watch with explosives and lip stick), Silver Fish (Invisible Olimar with Pikmin). Got lots of possible Spirits.
Doom doesn't have good music, no characters for spirits and weak stage potential
nice
NVM not nice
Metal Gear and Castlevania span multiple console generations, they may be a little dormant now, but they have staying power. Same situation with Mega-Man in Smash 4.
Banjo's life is basically tied to the n64. Though he does have Nuts and Bolts and I think a GBA game of some sort?
I sure am glad they give the DLC spirits their own boards.
I would've hated shuffling the spirit board full of ugly nu-Pokemon and shit trying to find the new ones.
get the fuck outta here
I was considering spider but I don't know who the fuck could be it. I like the Wither and Silverfish idea though
Probably would have had some if Joker worked like how he actually does in his game.
A good example is Ragnell's sfx in Brawl. Shit sounds like you're whacking someone with a fucking meteor.
Was just thinking about this the other day. I'm pretty sure this solidifies the idea that all of the characters will be from not only third party, but franchises which aren't already represented in Smash.
Chrono, Edrick, Doomguy, Steve, all of these have pretty good chances of happening right now.
What would his final smash be? He just dumps a truck full of shit sludge on the map?
no
he
fucking
cant
>they found Jet Force Gemini and Blast Corps mentioned in the datamining
>Banjo comes after Blast Corps and Before JFG chronologically, even in Rare Replay
>now this
How is Banjo NOT in?
This is also destroys the shilling for Pokémon and Fire Emblem shitposting
You know what first party series IS getting in though?
A brand new one
Spider would need to be a character that is at least low to the ground and has a black skin of some kind. Duck Hunt might fit the bill at least a bit and they could use items to simulate getting stuck in webs.
>Geno and Shantae are out
It's not fucking fair, bros.
Other Microsoft properties having spirits to supplement the small amount Steve would have.
This would suck but it seems like a real possibility.
Disgusting for the most part. If that’s the case, I’d like Yumi or Asuka from Senran Kagura as a DLC fighter. I guess characters like Bartz, Gilgamesh or Kain aren’t likely.
>Doom doesn't have good music
you big gay
>no characters for spirits
the demons, doom 3 marine, samuel hayden, olivia pierce, crash (Q3)
>weak stage potential
stage with exploding barrels, acid, teleporters, secrets - thank you, very cool
Be honest, Bayo and Joker have no reason to be in. They're literal who's next to everyone there.
At least give us Demi fiend
Is that Xenoblade Chronicles X DLC or did Platinum just use the same garbage character creator?
he can it's fine
We didn’t even get Jack Frost.
He has the power to not give a fuck
Plus his soundtrack is worth the price of admission
There was confusion because Nintendo actually still has publishing rights to those games in Japan, but not anywhere else.
>teleporters
They even have teleporters as a stage builder mechanic now. So having them in a regular stage isn't even far fetched. All of the demons can pull double duty for Spirits, since you could use both the sprites and models.
I don't understand, there's no mention of Microsoft anywhere in the datamining.
Hell they had to negotiate with Rare themselves to used certain songs for K Rool in Smash, Sakurai has a better relationship with Rare right now than Microsoft.

They did say Joker getting in should give us at least an idea of how the next 4 will go. I was thinking something like this. If each new character gets as much love as Joker did, that narrows things down.
yeah. theres no way any square character is getting in now because square would never allow that much content and soul to be put in
>Bayonetta
>>>>>ballot character
lmao
Yeah just like all those spirits from other Atlus games or other Persona/SMT games right.
Obviously his board would have Cortana, Spark, Arbiter, Johnson, Didact, Gravemind and a few other. But what would their battles be like?
Yeah i mean it’s hard to top Datk Pit, Paulatena, Robin, Corrin, Wolf and Little Mac.
God I want this game to be out already.
I dunno about Smash though. People would make comparisons to Joker's persona.
Why the fuck are people so fucking obsessed with a RE rep getting into Smash?
I love the series, but design wise, the character3s are boring and generic as shit.
she's in boys
The biggest sin Atlus has committed
There’s no way in hell Atlus is gonna get 2 DLC slots
Capcom only has 3 and Capcom is fucking huge
>Shantae
Not that she's gonna get in but there are plenty of character from Shantae not represented such as Bolo, Sky , Rottytops, Mimic, Abner, Poe, Squid Baron, Ammo Baron and so on. This doesn't effect her.
I think this is true, especially when it comes to thinks like the stage colour gimmicks, the custom victory screen and final smash end match transition, etc.
So if a character gets in, expect thing like all the items having googly eyes and a jigsaw screen transition for Banjo, or "YOU DIED/THE FIGHTER HAS BEEN KO'D" end match messages for Dark Souls, etc. Not saying that BK or Dark Souls are in, but that's the kind of UI/attention to detail to expect. Franchises like Dragon Quest especially have tons of shit to pull from.

Halo is no better than Fortnite, take your normiecore trash out of this thread.
Based Reimuchad
SE are super hard to work with apparently, so anything from them would be a HUGE surprise. I could believe something from Armor Project division though. Dragon Quest never misses it's opportunity to shill itself and it's crossed over with Mario before. Most of the Spirits could also just be generic artwork that Dragon Quest has used for years. The stage though, I can only imagine a moving tour stage, nothing else would be good enough to convey what Dragon Quest is suppose to be about. Though it would be amazing to have battles going on in the background. Imagine if Baramos shows up and throws out Firebane.

>The stage though, I can only imagine a moving tour stage, nothing else would be good enough to convey what Dragon Quest is suppose to be about.
DLC stages for Smash have all been pretty underwhelming other than Mario Maker, so expect the "tour" to just be a video in the background while the stage itself is a flat field.
He's in
>Halo is no better than Fortnite
First off not it way better than Fortnite and two, just because you like non-mainstream things doesn't make you cool
Smash is the definition of normiecore, you retarded hipster.
God this reads like a fuckin youtube comment, Yea Forums is dead.
This image along with the situation with Sora in World of Final Fantasy.
Not only do you have a shit ton of characters and creatures to make into spirits, but you also get to fight rathalos to get his spirit directly from the spirit board, making him the only boss that's also an assist trophy that is ALSO a boss available on the spirit board.
>can't do a daisy spirit because she only appeared as a severed head
damn
Sora without Disney content seems pointless and inaccurate.
Though of course Sora with Disney content would be a legal nightmare with possible ramifications on the game, so neither option is that great.
they could do something like having to protect a tiny (princess) daisy with a bunnyhood while he fights a red ridley or something
>It doesn’t help Sora, Disney would have to let Sora be in plus several other Disney characters.
Sora is Disney IP so if they somehow manage to get him the spirit board won't be an extra barrier because they'll already be licensing from Disney.
Plus it'll just be the KH main cast + Donald and Goofy and MAYBE Jiminy Cricket and Mickey
Yeah, Disney owns all the OC material in Kingdom Hearts. They just let Nomura maintain creative control as a courtesy.

Source?
I know you don't have one but I want to watch you scramble.
Do you have a source for this?
Sakurai lied about that one. He was just too horrified seeing how Goku and Shrek ranked so high.
Just using common sense.
>Resident Evil
There's a good chance of that happening, but how would they make it not boring?
>gets in
>comes with all the modern kirby spirits
I'd say Sylux and Porky are less likely because of Palutena's lack of a Guidance for Joker too. I assume that what she says will apply to all the DLC characters and saying they came from another dimension makes it seem like that other dimension is not one of the ones represented in the game, seeing as she does comment on those.
>Viewtiful Joe
My absolute most wanted since forever. Too bad he’s dead to Capcom
Microsoft rep always seemed like a distance dream.
>But they were in talks!
Because of Xbox Live on Switch and crossplay shit.
>Good chance of Resident evil happening
I'm sick of third party shit, they already have all the characters that really deserve to be in and anything on top of that is a fucking waste.
Yeah Bandana Waddle Dee having his own spirit board makes sense.
Shut up nerd
Because Joker has an airsoft gun, therefore everyone with a gun is coming in.
Already spirited.
Give me a REAL Kirby character.
REMINDER THAT THERE'S NOT A SINGLE DREAM FRIEND RENDER USED AS A SMASH SPIRIT
HE'S IN
And Cuphead and that's it.
Definitely, makes sense that they'd end it that early. Wouldn't want to make too much money on a lucrative collaboration
This. There's still plenty of other characters they could have. This doesn't really affect the one off spirits like Shantae or Rayman.
Still not at all likely to happen, but it won't stop me from wishing for Shantae DLC with a cute Rooty Tops Spirit.
NOOOOO PORKY WILL BE IN DESPITE ALREADY HAVING A STAGE AND HEAPS OF MUSIC TRACKS TO DO WITH HIM ALREADY!!!!!!
EVEN THOUGH MOTHER HAS A MILLION SPIRITS ALREADY IT DOESNT MATTER. REMEMBER ITS THE CHINK YEAR OF THE PIG WHICH IS TOTALLY SOMETHING THE JAPS CARE ABOUT. ITS ALSO MOTHERS 30TH ANIVERSARY WHICH ANNIVERSARIES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SIGNIFICANT IN CHARACTERS BEING INCLUDED IN SMASH
PORKY WASNT FORGOTTEN HE IS INNNNN
Cope harder, all the worthy Nintendo characters are already in.
RIP AND TEAR could easily be translated into a grappler moveset.
Dream Friend Spirit Board. Not a single dream friend render is used as a spirit
Lets be real. Bayo and Joker are nowhere near the level of the other characters there.
So no source, got it.
i don’t think that sora is in but they could still use the OC kingsom hearts characters and the final fantasy characters
No he’s not shut the fuck up
>they already have all the characters that really deserve to be in
this applies to Nintendo characters by several orders of magnitude more
>hat goomba retards still exist
They could still do some things to work around this while still making it happen.
For example, I could totally see them putting in Zero, but specifically using his MMZ design to make him stand out from the Assist Trophy and give them an opening to put in a bunch of spirits from that series.
Not saying they'll do that, but it's a way they could still have a character from an already represented franchise.
If Doomguy got in, do you really think Sakurai would reference all the DOS Dooms?
He'd probably think D44M was the only game in the series due to no numbers on it.
Who is Organization 13, Riku, Kairi, Aqua, Terra, Ventus, Roxas, Xion, Namine, Eraqus, Lingering Will, heartless, dream eaters, nobodies? If anything this increases Sora's chances and you have to be a brainlet to think otherwise. Also helps Doomguy because different demon's could be easy spirit picks.
Hey plumber boy, mustache man, your worst nightmare has arrived...
Yeah man I can't wait to see what cool shit they'll add next from games everyone will forget about in 4 years. And that's being generous in the event that the character they pick is actually popular and not just a cynical marketing ploy, everybody stopped caring about fucking Joker before the DLC even came out.
>There's no Dream Friend Spirits in Smash despite the high quality images being readily available
>Bandana Dee is the highest DLC request in Japan
>Joker is the M rated pick, so Sakurai has to choose a kid-iconic family friendly choice to diversify the DLC roster
Bandana Dee is IN
Does crash exclusively exist in the context of Mario's shadow?
Nigga, Dante was literally deconfirmed.
It’s much easier to deal with third parties when their character is sold as DLC since you can just split the profits, sorry but first party characters arent looking too hot at the moment.
THINK OF SOME DOOM SPIRIT BATTLES
Yeah in Skylanders
Joker's going to age so fucking badly.
To be fair, it was on-going back in Brawl.
>Robin, Wolf, and Mac are whos
Nice giggle.
Nobody gives a fuck about Bandana Waddle Dee, Ashley or Porky, not even Nintendo fans.

>everybody stopped caring about fucking Joker before the DLC even came out

We got more first party DLC fighters then third party last time

Creeper:Ganondorf but hes holding a b-bomb and bombs constantly spawn
Skeleton jocky:link using bow and arrows constantly with a tiny ridley
Chicken rider:Tiny ganondorf with a chicken in hand
Villager:Villager with food constantly spawning,when killed he becomes bayonetta.
Zombie pigman:Little mac(green hood) with killing edge
Wither:Three snakes with jetbpacks whi favor the c4 move and hold bombs
Laboman:The discover section peeps and the labo kits
Bandana dee:modern kirby
Porky:more mother 3 stuff
I thouht you wanted a real character, not bonus content for the game
he acknowledged John Carmack as the father of FPS so he probably is somewhat aware of what Doom is
>Nobody gives a fuck about Bandana Waddle Dee
Is this a joke?
Except they totally are.
Who the hell is Wolf anyway? He’s a furry so must be Star Fox but i’ve never seen him before so my guess is... some shitty portable star fox game with a weird name?
>Spirits do deconfirm
Everyone who argued with me on this can eat shit.
Yes
They're still relevant. Banjo is a literal who from a dead franchise.
You're a horrible actor
That's not their Dream Friend render
Smash is bigger and third party content is more exciting and generates more hype.
>Creeper
>Not Bomber
Crash, Rayman and Bomberman are all third parties that are still known by the genral public. Once they add those then we will have run out of relevant 3rd parties.
Joker? But isn't Batman from Avengers?
>Robin, Wolf, Little Mac
>literal whos
>Monokuma still safe
Nice.
>Smash is bigger and third party content is more exciting
No not really. K.Rool and Ridley destroyed both Belmonts and Black marth in hype without question
MvC3 eventually came back

And Castlevania?
Oh wait, that's inconvenient for your argument.

Lolwut?
Alright what we know so far
> Nintendo officially claimed that the final 4 newcomers will be completely unique & different
> All DLC fighters will have their own spirit board
> Sakurai's Criteria for 3rd Parties (See below) aligns with Nintendo's official statement
> 1. Characters from a series that has no future are rarely chosen
> 2. Fighters that switch models are a different matter."
> 3. Even if a character is unique, if they overlap with other characters and aren't unique as a fighter, they are rejected.
> 4. In order to fit the character into the world of Smash, I need them to allow me some artistic license.
> 5. It might be something like a courtesy to include a character who has the history of being on a Nintendo platform.
> 6. The character must display personality in their game
> 7. It’s important to have something that ONLY the character can do
> 8. Potential development issues, and game balance is also taken into some consideration (Heihachi cut from Sm4sh)
> 9. There are some characters that can’t join the battle, even if they meet the qualifications
> 10. Is the character the representative character for their respective Source Material
> 11. The character must have something inherently unique about them
Based on all of this, predict the next 4 newcomers
Imp = A bunch of shitty Marios spamming B and A tapping you if you get close

Robin is a little understandable, it's the FE echoes that are the true whos.
AWWWWW SHIT THE BANDANA DEE HYPE TRAIN IS BACK BAYBEEEEE
Still mad i was banned from the bandana dee discord server for Saying nigger.IF YOUR READING THIS PLEASE UNBAN ME.
K. Rool and Snake ran away with that ballot. "Realizable and negotiable" just meant "Characters we planned to make." The ballot was for Ultimate.
Not him, but speak for yourself.
>3rd parties make everyone coming back harder
>Certain characters like Cloud show some companies will be very hard to work with
>Even among the Nintendo circle there are some hurdles to come over (TPC, Intelligent Systems, Nintendo's higher ups)
I bet there are properties that can be in Smash that I'm sure exceed Cloud's bullshit, and I fear the day that comes.
Bandana Dee has a Spirit.
Neither of those are dead
>K rool
HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT HUH?
The Three Mage Sisters are a spirit.
geno ain't happening but it could feasibly be done. there are hardly any mario rpg spirits, whether it's for smrpg, paper mario, or m&l
there's plenty of material to work with
honestly i dont care what it is but i'd love for the mario rpgs to be repped more, bros
>trying to claw your way back from the afterlife this hard
Genuinely pathetic.
But on the bright side it's just another change to shit on goomba when it all comes tumbling down
Stop samefagging.
Nope. Not their Dream Friend Render
>only one spirit despite infinite spirit possibilities with the many monsters and characters in the game (even Shantae and Shovel Knight got more then one spirit)
HOLY FUCK HE'S IN
People are going to act like EVERYONE knew Megaman and Castlevania weren't actually dead and people were just overreacting for the sake of saying characters can't get in. Don't take their bait.
guess there's still the mii costume...
My fucking nigga. He's the only first party character that still gets requests and Japan voted him #1 for DLC a few weeks ago

Well mario is just hat human then you absolute bumbling autist
In his communitys bandana chads call him hat goomba as an ironic meme.
What gimmick or unique mechanic would Master Chief have?
The fact is Joker is never appearing in a mainline game again. Why would he and his boring moveset stay?
based
I'm getting fucking sick of these rosterfags or leakfags. While Erdrick isn't that bad a choice, he only gained traction because retarded leakers brought him up and thought he'd be relevant enough to be revealed at the Game Awards.
It's terrible how easily a character's reputation can be ruined by a few retards wanting their time in the spotlight.
>Smash 4: 2014 release
>Megaman 11: 2018
Only happened after Smash 4 and Mighty Number 9 lit a fire under their asses.
Not the same user but Smash 4 with Mega Man was revealed in 2013.. MM11 did not exist nor was it in development at that time. Mega Man was fucking dead as a franchise and had no future.
pain elemental is a big dark kirby that spawns mini-charizards with infinite jumps and who spam side-b
you have to knock out kirby with the charizards
Seething. MM having a new game proves he never died. New games are IMPOSSIBLE if a series died
He starts strong but as the time goes on he goes from low high tier to low low tier and does no damage while getting outsold by B tier new Sony IPs like Horizon Zero Dawn.
>he says while doing the exact fucking same thing to rash
Honestly I'd rather have Doom 1/2 guy rather than Doom 4. I think he could work like GW in a semi sprite based way.
>K.rool
>third party
Based
Franchise death is final. It means it will never have a new game again.
MM got a new game. Thus he cannot be considered to have died. Banjo is done forever, so he's dead.
that's not s good sign for my most wanted. the only guess i have is that the first party characters could bring even more spirits
Ultimate is never happening again, next Smash will be made from the ground up and cut over 60% of it’s roster, but each character will get a completely new moveset.
Based.
ammo
he'll use like down B to swap weapons each with different ammo that generates while the gun is inactive encouraging you to swap between weapons
This is a new depth of antifag cope
>Implying Sakurai cares about nu-Kirby
You kidding? Both Shantae and SMRPG only have two spirits each, there's far more room for more spirits. Shantae is missing obvious stuff like Rottytops, Bolo, Sky, and even shit like Amo Baron, Twitch, Vinegar, Squid Baron, Tinkerbats, etc. SMRPG has no shortage of spirits to choose from either, Jonathan Jones, bunch of original enemies and bosses, Frogfucious, Belome, Smithy, Booster, Jinx, the Chancellor, Yaridovich, Bowyer, Axem Rangers, etc.
Admit it, he’s in.
i mean Bayo is only in because of fan vote so yeah she doesn't fit
Keeping in mind the highly probable Capcom/Namco/SE rep combo, and the need for spirits.
>Noctis or Sephiroth (for FF spirits)
>Lloyd Irving or Heihachi
>Phoenix Wright or Leon Kennedy
>Banjo or Doomguy
That really only works with Fire Emblem Three Houses and Pokemon Sword and Shield.
Wanna take-back?
Three of those were veterans, however. The only full fledged first party newcomer was Corrin. Obviously this will not apply to Ultimate because everyone is here.
You are technically true but you have to admit this news greatly favors third party IPs with 0 spirits.
Doomguy fails almost all of that criteria & so does Banjo
Jack and Joker wasn't an obvious connection
Pakku was slightly more obvious but it still wasn't literally just another name for the character.
It's a CODE name, user. Being too obvious disqualifies it from being a possibility.
Every weapon he uses is energy and or alien like. Energy sword, plasma grenade, gravity hammer, plasma pistol. Maybe even have a shield meter gimmick where you have to constantly keep attacking him to break so he can take damage other wise he takes little damage.
GIVE ME THE FUCKING HAT GOOMBA, I LOVE THAT LITTLE BASTARD.
They may not have the legacy, and the image does wrong on saying they are iconic, but those aren't the only factors to take in account. Popularity, current relevancy and availability are also important.
In Bayo's case, even if she may have not actually won the ballot, she was still very openly requested, and at this point she's practically a Nintendo character thanks to the exclusivity. Joker is all on Persona's current popularity, with 5 being the most mainstream, and I really like how unexpected of a pick he was. Hope the remaining 4 follow a similar trend.
Holy cope, absolutely delusional.
>It’s important to have something that ONLY the character can do
i'm worried
Spirits deconfirm characters.
I like both
Absolutely, I've already given up on Geno for the most part. I can't see them adding another Mario character at all, even if he's third party. I also don't see them adding indie characters either, so Shantae's pretty unlikely in my opinion. I was merely stating that shortage of spirits is certainly not an excuse for almost any franchise, except extremely limited stuff like Duck Hunt, R.O.B. and Game & Watch.
I know they probably do, I just wanted to post this pic I made. I still love that bastard, though.
You do realize none of the DQ hero’s are ever named Brave, right? It’s as much of a codename as it could possibly be.
>only works with Fire Emblem Three Houses and Pokemon Sword and Shield
that's not what i'm talking about, dipshit
>the falseflagging marxtard is back
Fuck off.
I predict four characters that dab on rulefags and patternfags.
> Sora (Square Enix)
> KOS-MOS (Namco)
> Amateratsu (Capcom)
> Kasumi (Koei Tecmo)
They fit all criteria & have upcoming games or ports to advertise
I can only come up with two because I'm trying to think of P5 style UI stuff (like the custom victory screens, colour scheme/music stage mechanic etc)
>Banjo Kazooie
Items (crates, barrels, some others etc) have googly eyeballs on the BK stage
Matches with BK content may use a jigsaw or Gruntilda transition effect with corresponding sound effect
Spirit Battle screen uses Pause Menu music, other N64 era Rare games like Diddy Kong Racing/Blast Corps get a spirit
>Dragon Quest
Custom victory screen based on Dragon Quest "You won the battle, gained Exp/leveled up" screens
Spirit Battle screen is stylized like a battle menu with recurring enemies
They're going to want every character to be comparable in terms of unique presentation I think, not only the character needs to ooze personality but also their home franchise. Dragon Quest has tons of stuff to pull from while BK's British charm is very unique and unlike anything else in the game. I was considering things like Dark Souls (with YOU DIED/THE FIGHTER HAS BEEN KO'D messages for round end,) and passed on Crash Bandicoot because I couldn't think of what it could have.
tl;dr presentation is super going to matter for future DLC fighters IMO
COPE & cry more, not a single 3rd party character breaks any of Nintendo's official criteria

Think about it.
Came here to say fuck you. Every time I see a picture from that game the music starts playing in my head on repeat.
Also the height argument doesn't work anymore
Especially when the shield sizes are the real indicator for how tall a character should be and Joker himself is not as small as his height parameter would him out to be
Seethe a little more, rulefag
Imagine getting to hear the Smash rendition of this
youtube.com
Definitely
>hilariously stoic, down to the taunts
Except up taunt obviously has to be praise the sun. And the other taunts need to be meme gestures like Well What is it and No Way.
Why are there no P3/4 spirits and no representation at all from 1 and 2?
Didn’t joker already break the gun rule, I’d replace him with Popeye just to break the vidya rule, instead.
If anyone can get me a render of the ugly Steve doing the virgin walk, I'll put it in.
Amateratsu because Nintendo's funding the Okami sequel
But user persona has only 3 games, it's like star wars they will make the prequels later
No gunsfags are coping and trying to find excuses for it
>DIO doesn't break the vidya rule
The only ones seething are Subhuman Banjo fags crying that their literal who furry will never be in Smash
I'm just imagining what it was like when Ryu was added and he had proper inputs, except now it's with fatrolls and backstabs. It sounds incredibly janky and hilarious for that reason.

I'm personally of the opinion that having the whole fighter's pass be entirely humanoid characters would be boring (I'd put in a platform mascot or two in there) but if they play a Dark Souls character totally straight I'd love it just for how much it sticks out.
What sounds more plausible is just a bunch of devs adding in spirits of Nintendo characters they remembered and then looked into the legal stuff later.

Crash can do a lot of things on his own to make a move set. Unless you were talking about someone else...
You really think in the next 100 years, or 1000 or 10000, there won't be a new Banjo game?
You gonna get a sequel and remaster for every gem or piece of shit you played. Get ready for Ice Climber: Mountain Mayhem in 2031
This. Reminder that Nintendo's Spirits dev team literally used fanmade sprite rips for some characters. The Masked Man sprite had a whited out (but still present) bit from a fan's deviantart sprite rip which also had a blue pixel that the actual Mother 3 sprite doesn't have. It was changed and updated in a patch.
Sounds like Reimu confirmed to me
>n-no u!
>brings up Banjo out of nowhere
lmao just cope little rulefag
Fund it.
Here's the stage. Ornstein and Smough's music will be the track.
I want him too user, but I think because of mvc3 he isn't gonna be in sadly.
Shit, I forgot that you put DIO, I should be less of a brainlet. Well then, just have Sakurai make his own OC for smash or something, or maybe just put in master hand or sandbag.
>characters from franchises that aren't represented at all are likely to get in
Pauline is in bros!
Sora getting in would make the dlc go the way of MvC3.

I don't really expect Phoenix at all, but why is that a reason for not having him according to you?
I just thought of a special where Phoenix presents the Magatama and chains up his opponent.

Sure, but what UI gimmicks does he bring? Does his stage change appearance to match the song being played? Unique end match clips instead of the default announcer? This is what's gonna sell me on any DLC character.
Shut the FUCK up Kosmos nigger
I doubt this does anything against Sora. Disney has shown big interest in working with Nintendo for years (said they’d be ok with Sora showing up in smash, Mickey Mouse too, wanted to build a Pokémon ride but was locked out of it because of the universal deal, Head of Disney’s gaming division promised Mario and Mickey Mouse would appear together someday, Wreck it Ralph 2 originally had Mario Kart play a major role in the plot.) It all just relies on if Nintendo would be okay with representing Disney characters in their game.
there have been a shitton of Taiko games on Nintendo and using a rhythm-based moveset would be different

Oof.
Imagine caring so much about characters NOT getting in that you make up rules that you have to keep changing and moving the goalposts everytime characters that blow you the fuck out get in like Ridley, K. Rool, Richter, and Joker.
This post was written by the biggest Jokerbro on the board. Continue seething and whining about MUH RULES while cool characters get in that no one would expect.
> KOS-MOS (Namco)
Your twitter profile says you're half-Korean and Smash is made for humans
This, there’s no fucking rules, anyone who implies otherwise is a delusional rostercuck.
My thinking is mostly on potential moveset overlap, but it really shouldn't stop Phoenix from being in Smash. I'm not as creative as the MvC3 or Smash team so anything could go.
> KOS-MOS (Namco)
I've literally never seen this character brought up anywhere outside of rosterfag threads
>Dante
Already confirmed not to be here since the fucking developer himself said we would need games on switch first
That’ll be great news, we’ll get another biased muscular cute shota with a shirtless scene like Pit.
Astral Chain is going to be the first party DLC rep
He could have Maya trowing confetti for his victory animation, similar to MvC3
The court room could explote un the background, the people in the stand can react to the combat, the judge could be a hazard
His gimmick could be search for evidence and then present it, or have wind attacks just like Marvel vs Capcom 3 and the anime
His final smash could be breaking the psilockes or corner somebody,
There's a lot of good music to choose, and if they want to go extra mile they could make Edgeworth an echo
>UI gimmicks does he bring?
Look no further than how he's handled in MVC3, working off evidence that can be portrayed in the UI akin to Joker's Arsene bar, Cloud's limit break, etc.
>Does his stage change appearance to match the song being played?
AA1-3 Music: Courtroom No. 3
AA4-5 Music: Courtroom No. 4 (post explosion)
AA6 Music: High Court of Khura'in
>Unique end match clips instead of the default announcer?
Declares his opponents not guilty of winning the match, or guilty of losing
It isn't too hard to come up with stuff like this. AA is full of charm

Anybody that thought shantae would be in ultimate is a retard
That said if she keeps getting quality games she might make it into the next smash game, or ultimate if they make it all the way to 3 dlc passes.
They did the same thing for the last game and that included Mewtwo and Lucas, so nah, it means nothing.
truly based
Good shit
The spirit board thing definitely changes speculation for dlc characters a bit. Erdrick really seems to be a shoe-in at this point. Although to be fair, they managed to add Joker without adding HeeHo, so I'm sure if they really wanted Sora, they could probably work around the Disney by making the spirits KH OCs. I still think we're getting Erdrick though; DQ is too huge to ignore.
I said it before and I’m going to say it again
The square rep is going to be a FF character
That way Square can give us proper spirits and songs.... at a price
>oddly has absolutely no representation
>have an exclusive library of content that could have spirit representation if tapped into
>is a Nintendo property, so no negotiation is even needed
They're in
How does the spirit board make it a shoe in for DQ when Big Brother Final Fantasy DIDNT get anything?
HE’S IN
The DLC Spirit board really does eliminate all the franchises in Smash at this point. Well except for a new shillmon with the board using the notable omission on the spirit board, or Fire Emblem shilling Edelgard or Byleth with a spirit board filled with three houses characters.
>cow

I hope John Romero's head on a pike gets a spirit battle.
FF didn't require a spirit board. There wasn't a quota to fill yet. DQ was already highly likely, but now there's just a ton to pull from for spirits, and they could probably get them.
He certainly has some unique moveset potential with his terraforming and his other form.
I mean if having a very obvious small amount of content was a problem for Square on its own they had two opportunities to do something about it. I think if it's different for Dragon Quest it'll be because that series is handled differently in general, not out of some quota.
>It eliminates other franchises
>EXCEPT THE ONES WE KNOW ARE GOING TO BE SHILLED
You missed the point entirely
There is no first party, especially Fire Emblem and Pokémon, that is going to get a separate spirit board when both of them already have a fuck ton
Astral Chain is going to be the only first party DLC
SE has different minds between FF and DQ. FF is expensive to try to license out. SE considers anything from 10 and back to be 'legacy' characters and so charges a lot to use them, in any form. You want to make a character, ok, it's 100k. You want to make a model of X to put in the stage as a background? It's also 100k. No it doesn't matter that one has more work put into it, it doesn't matter if one is a literal picture. Same cost.
DQ though, SE has no confidence in it outside of their market in Japan, so it's stupid cheap and they love to dump the costs for it onto whoever wants to bring it over. SE is always heavily concerned with their western market presence that DQ is always just considered a Japanese product and so doesn't have the same costs associated with FF. The only hitch with DQ is it's composer and that's a whole other can of worms.
I'd be insanely ok with that

I really do wish they’d just hurry up and reveal some more characters. I was sold on Joker the moment he was revealed, and even more so now that everything about him has been shown off.
But I still don’t want to buy the pass just yet, because Nintendo’s barely even scratched the surface of what will be in it. If they can reveal at least one or two more characters I like, I’ll purchase it in a heartbeat. But until then, I’m not exactly certain I want to spend money on it.
Square wanted Cloud as DLC again, but for the everyone is here gimmick they had to have him as a Roster addition on the agreement that they got to add Sephiroth as DLC.
Just some guy who takes a piss.

I can also see the stage be a battle screen against a slime on the plains from the SNES remake of 1+2. Stage named after the continent. It’s just a regular style stage, but the BG is like a theatre of the MC from 1 walking around and battling Slimes. The events of the fight sometimes create stage hazzards.
For you.
I want a clunky piece of shit Dark Souls character with tons of UI homages on their stage. Imagine having your roll degrade into fatrolls because you used them too much or drinking an estus in the middle of combat. Poising through multi-jab moves to land a smash attack.
>The events of the fight sometimes create stage hazzards.
So like "Slime cast Firaga!" and fire spurts onto the screen, or another spell creates a temporary platform? Makes sense. Especially if enemies make cameos like the P5 cast did in Mementos.
I’m thinking he’s in
Yeah, basically. You have a variety of enemies of different rarities in showing up, but slimes are the most common. Essentially, it’s like a 4D theatre in the BG.
>datamining
Fuck them
We knew this since launch day.
Reggie LITERALLY said it would be characters that have never been in Smash before. No DLC fighters will have had their series represented at any point in time in Smash.
If only they held off on Cloud until Ultimate, then maybe we'd finally get some FF spirits.
I’m still getting on another FF character to which will get us our Spirits and Music
In-game every single spirit says "persona series" including joker.

This has to be the dumbest pick I've ever seen. Literally Steve or Rayman or Banjo is a million times more likely to be in.
he's talking about astral chain
What is that?
If this is the case all the characters being 3rd party is even more plausible now. What a joke, glad I skipped the switch. Fuck sakurai and fuck nutendo. Every vidya company is complete shit, there needs to be a crash, and fast.
Fuck off retard.
When Banjo gets in he better have a Yooka Laylee color, Green Banjo with Purple Kazooie
Keep eating shit nigger
Im ready for Chosen Undead in smash and ds2/3 on switch
I've fallen in love with the idea of a Dark Souls character. It has tons of unique UI stuff like Persona does, is popular, unexpected, would play incredibly differently (especially if they keep Dark Souls jank in it), has great stage potential with things like Sen's Fortress, is on Switch, etc. I just want a janky ass knight who plays as accurately as Belmonts or Ryu/Ken.

Because clearly Joker had non-Persona spirits.
Deefag here, how does this increase his chances at all? I like the optimism but I don't see how this bit of information counts towards his inclusion
it doesnt, theyre shitposting.
I mean there's still a chance that the company can help to choose their spirits and Rare wanted to represent themselves more fully than Atlus did
>outright stated that Joker will be how DLC is handled
>lol we'll have surplus of spirits even though only Namco only did it
I mean they don't have to have more than like the fuckin 12 or 14 spirits persona does. Just pull them from more games that jokers spirit board does you brainlet
You imply that Banjo cannot sustain one on his own. Fuck this mentality of a character repping a "company", Pac-Man practically suffered from it.
it would make sense for banjo to have rare spirits in general if he is to promote rare replay
>I think of game promotion
>rather than the character representing his own series
This is peak rosterfaggotry.
Oh yeah because like 5 or 6 of the fucking spirits being not from the banjo kazooie series totally destroys him representing his series. you can do both you fucking idiot

yes, yes it does especially when it's about BJ and not Rare
Because Doom is an important game
You can still get a good swathe of characters from BK without that. I'm sure there are a good amount of characters from persona 5 that are missing from the spirits or momentos but that doesn't mean joker or persona 5 is poorly represented
What about THIS character?!
*grabs OP by the back of the head and shoves his face into my ass crack, then proceeds to let out a loud, raunchy toot*
Yeah, but at the same time all of the DLC spirits are Persona 5.

The absolute state of ex Grinchfags/Anti leakers/ Banjocucks.
Let me guess, you're also behind
This little treat of retardation
He'll be a boss in World of Light DLC along with Porky and Ender dragon
Nope. Are you crying? You can only post anime pics now?
It's the same retard from the past threads. Ignore him.
I too, know how to use inspect element.
Resident Evil doesn't just use a handgun. There's shotgun, grenades, knives, and maybe even a machine gun and rocket launcher if they feel like using those. It could work as a nice composite concept between Joker and Snake. Maybe even have a gimmick where they can escape grabs easier with an attack. Or hell, herbs are sure iconic enough for the series, maybe Sakurai could come up with some gimmick involving those.
>You can only post anime pics now?
STOP

Hold hands.
Different user, but i think the issue is making the character different from Bayo and Joker who have guns, and Snake who has explosives, and any future gun characters. Though having an RE character with a shotgun as the signature weapon sounds like a great idea, the shotgun has always been one of the most reliable things in most of the franchise.
I'll ignore this and pretend Banjo still has a chance.
Are Banjofags the most delusional Group of people ever?
Or are the Genofags worse?
>Cancelled series
>Got a new main game in 2010 and shared the poster in another in 2012
How is it cancelled
You people say Megaman and Castlevania were dead. We show proof that at the time of their inclusions, those were not. You only respond with shit memes. You're either a retarded Stevefag pretending to be a Banjofag, or simply retarded.
At least Genofags knew when to quit at the very least, even Bandana deefags did
Doing one for Terry Bogard later, but Nakoruru first

No transformations unless you count Rera and she is a separated character in the source game

There's no character like her even she uses a dagger/shortsword

SNK doesn't give a fuck and let even Athena into a shooting game

SNK games were in Nintendo platforms since the NES

First fighting game character that used helpers to fight, first female guest character in a game
Blockheads are the worse, banjofags may be getting a little extreme lately, but I can hardly blame them, well either way this whole "Steve vs Banjo" war will end at E3.
>Please ignore that they publicly cancelled all future megaman projects
>H-He wasn't dead I swear
Ohnnononononoahahahahahahaha
Or maybe not if it's not a Microsoft character that gets in.
>Shared the poster in another.
To be fair, if you do that, you might as well count the Sonic Racing Game from 2010 that included Banjo. It's still a dead franchise though.
>Yuri
>Lloyd
You will get Chad von Fabre and you will like it. Cress when? Please give Phantasia some love.
If we are getting a microsoft character then really I can only see it being announced at E3, if it doesn't happen there then I don't think we will be getting a microsoft character.
Persona is MegaTen, dipshits.

Hype season is over for me.
They're minecraft kiddies, user

Cope.
YOU'RE GETTING BTFO BY THESE BASED ANONS!
IN YOUR FUCKING FACE! BANJO WILL MAKE IT! HE'S LITERALLY ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC CHARACTERS FROM HIS ERA
STEVEFAGS BTFO
>Wh-why y-yes I'm a B-banjobro
Stop and go back to your Discord.
Honestly since my most wanteds are assists (Isaac, Skull Kid, Alucard) or way too niche to ever have a chance (Django), I'm just happy with anything that isn't a "shill pick" of an unreleased game.
>YOUR discord
Stevey stevey
Cope and seethey

it's currently making more money than any of these franchises thanks to japanese pinball gambling
and it came out in smash at the highest hype of the whole franchise
>it's currently making more money than any of these franchises thanks to japanese pinball gambling
The absolute state, city, and country of relevancyfags
Holy shit my sides
I know it'll never happen but I hope they add Spyro
>doshin simplistic artstyle is perfect for level creator
brb
Relevancy has always been a funny thing, like the user that touted Castlevania Lords of Shadow as "making the franchise relevant" when the game split the fanbase in half and killed the franchise, and Sakurai barely acknowledges it's existence.
Damn this user has been bfto banjokes left and right this thread, based
Why are you this obseesed over Banjo?
Why do you want this bear so much? We have Mario, Link, Pikachu, even Kirby. Yet, you want Banjo buddy? Why?
>and shared the poster in another in 2012
These fucking bits and the "B-But Castlevania has a TV show" shit make you guys sound insanely desperate.
I mean you are insanely desperate, but it's just getting sad lately.
Based battletoad bro
Fuck the naysayers, I'll wish for him as much as I want.
youtube.com
we need a weaponmaster in the game, just like vaan in dissidia2
I'm a sucker for fighters who use an arsenal
>relevancy
Fire Emblem and Persona are niche ass franchises that Sakurai loves so he gives special attention to them. Kid Icarus Uprising is his baby so he did the same with that.
The best you could get is one of these two desu
>Why do you want one of your favorite video game characters in Smash
I understand you're just a shitposter but SURELY you aren't so detached from reality that you don't know why people want characters in Smash.
Straight up confirms that the new fighters will be main characters from unused franchises, with supporting characters as spirits.
Based, Blockheads finna get dabbed on.
It's the same as the Incineroar and Isabelle and Piranha Plant posters. None of them can talk about the games they are from, only how relevant their character was.
Compared to the Joker threads where everyone was discussing whether the Tokarev would be allowed, whether the Casino or Mementos would be the stage, if he would have Satanael and Sinful Shell.
Play his games if you like Banjo, they are still there.
Shouldn't Erdrick be there too? Or is this just about Microsoft? Either way this is based.
the same can be done for Dragon Quest and Minecraft and literally any game for the character people want in.
Wait im confused? Are you suggesting that there are no banjofags? and its just blockheads arguing with themselves?
Hahahaha holy shit
I bet you actually thought this was a clever comeback.
It's pretty scary how obsessed they are with Banjo
Please tell me this is fake
Clearly you are more obsessed with Banjo than the banjofags are.
That's pretty based
Would be more based if he went and made it himself though
Keep in mind, joker already was confirmed at that point
They didn't have to worry about this rosterfag bullshit
>Doesn't even mention Banjo
How obsessed are you blockhead?
I wish I could , it's no wonder why Sakurai doesn't pander to them
>nothing linking it to Banjo except your word
At least Sakurai acknowledges its existence, contrary to Banjo.
>relevancyfagging so hard you like Corrin of all characters
Speaking of acknowledgement...
If anything, it's the relevancyfag who won, retard.
Why, at least I'm not faggot like Banjocucks.
>Corrin
My sides
Of course
Fuck off, Corrin is a good character.
>When you become so obnoxious everyone is turning against you
Good job Stevefags, you made everyone hate Banjo
They had one of that woman from metal gear with a bomb in her groin
>likes one of the worst written characters in the franchise
>not a faggot
Unless you don't actually play FE, then you would just be a secondary instead of a faggot.
Fates is a good SRPG, might be one of the best in the franchise, and it has a bunch of good characters. Corrin is not one of them.
No argument for 100 posts, gg ez.
< You.
Based.
cope refusteve, you've been at it for half a year and banjofags are no closer to going away or giving up
>Implying I care about Steve
