There are two things Joker taught us about the future DLCs:

Yeah, but it's nintendo at the end of the day. They'll probably want to add something to promote a new game, like Three Houses or Sword and Shield. I think the next one would probably be a third party as well, but at some point there going to do something like what they did with Corrin in smash 4.

Sakurai tweeted that the spirit thing would happen for every DLC fighter so that one is true at least

Possibly, although Smash 4 was a different time. The dlc wasn't nearly as structured as it is now, it was just them haphazardly throwing stuff into the game. Also, I'm pretty sure the promo character will be from Dragon Quest. There are new games coming out for it on the Switch, and Nintendo usually publishes them in the west.

and Mortal Kombat and Ninja Gaiden

Why do you dumb fucking retards keep trying to find patterns and "rules"?
Sakurai does what he wants, how he wants, and when he wants.
The dude has contradicted himself a million times over already.
Just shut the fuck up on how "I'VE TOTALLY DISCOVERED THE SECRETS TO WHO CAN OR CAN'T BE ADDED."
God damn.

Sakurai didn't fully decide the Challenger pack DLC character.
Nintendo gave him a list.
Also Reggie has stated that the Challenger Pack will not contain characters that have showed up in smash in any capacity when Joker was announced.

How can people be such brainlets that they didn't understand what Reggies quote meant?
He said every DLC will be new to super smash brothers. As in, they already have all past existing characters so any DLC that comes out will be a completely brand new fighter and not an old character from an older game.

What if they move existing series/spirits to a new board, such as Wars or W101?

Sauce on Reggie saying that?

As far as I can see the criteria are only
>Is a video game character
>Series has appeared on Nintendo or has ties to Nintendo
Everything else is stupid bullshit

Reggie meant that there are no more older characters to bring back, since everybody is already in ultimate. Because of that, every single DLC character is new to the series of super smash brothers. How are you so dumb?

That's not the part i'm talking about. The full quote is
>"These are going to be characters that are new to the series, just like Joker from Persona 5. Characters that you would not anticipate to be in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate."

The focus is on sentence 2.

The ONLY thing that's official is that each dlc fighter will get a spirit board
Everything else is just conjecture

But user...it's 100% true and everyone knows it...you're not still hoping for Geno are you?

>tfw Metroid Prime already has 2 reps now
The world has been to kind lately

I know you're just having a laugh, but Dark Samus is also an exclusively Prime character.

>Characters that you would not anticipate to be in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate."
As opposed to characters we WOULD anticipate to be in Smash Bros? Sounds like basic PR talk to me.

The DLC should all be Assists made playable. Ashley, Isaac, Waluigi, Dillon, and Lyn.

That sentence doesn't mean anything, like, at all. Piranha plant was just as much of a surprise, if not bigger, than joker. And Plant is from a series that already has a ton of reps.

It absolutely shocks me that there are still people thinking that any of the dlc characters will come from a franchise that's already in the game

Literally the moment he was showcased at The VGAs.
Everyone already knew there was no more older character to bring back so he obviously didn't mean that.

Dillon is the only one on that list that actually deserves to be a fighter.
Since Sonic was such a fucking let down, maybe Dillon could be the proper Sonic character.

Corrin exists. Stop getting your hopes up.

based and redpilled, but not happening

There are music tracks and spirits from Wonderful 101.

>Everyone already knew there was no more older character to bring back so he obviously didn't mean that.
Thats exactly why he did mean that though, he gave exactly nothing away about the DLC lineup while still making it sound exciting. Literally empty PR speak.

What does that even mean? Why are you bringing up a dlc character from the last game? THIS game's paid dlc characters will not be from a series that has representation in the game. I have no clue why you responded with such an off topic statement. Then again, I am on this board for some reason.

That is quite literally exactly what he meant.

No character “deserves” a place in a video game.

Not him, but Corrin was an outlier thrown in at the very end of Smash 4 to promote a recent Nintendo game. Smash Ultimate DLC is much more planned and calculated. They can't just throw in characters willy nilly anymore

That's just marketing talk.

Plant is paid DLC, so you're already wrong, retard.

If they can add a disappointing first party rep to 4 as DLC they can add one to Ultimate as DLC. There is a precedent, and you'd be dumb to expect more out of them when they still pull shit like saving Incineraor for the last roster reveal. They never said there won't be first party reps, they never said they won't be from series in the game, and you shouldn't get your hopes up that your made up standards will be met when the track record is shoddy at best.

I was able to purchase Persona spirits from the in-game shop without buying the DLC. If they can add the new spirits to that, then there's no reason they could be added to the normal Spirit Board.

You can't deny it makes sense.

VGA's right after Joker's reveal from the mouth of Reggie.
People are now trying to twist it into him talking about how there won't be anything returning characters as DLC when everyone already realized that since the game contains all prior characters already. So it wouldn't have to be stated.

It's not a pattern if only one of the 5 has been confirmed. Plant doesn't count, you're an idiot.

This is why I still think Travis is gonna make it in despite Suda's claims. They have spirits from just about every game that's been on a Nintendo console but not a single No More Heroes one. How hard would making a dark-haired Shulk fight be?

There is also a precedent with a completely out of left field pick like joker being added to the game. Not to say there won't be any first party characters, but unless they believe a first party rep would push more sales than a third party rep like joker, I say it's a safe bet to expect all third parties

That's exactly how it works. It makes no sense for Nintendo to limit their selection like that. And there's no evidence that's what Nintendo is going to do. It's fucking retarded.

user that doesn't make any sense.
Of course Joker brought a new music folder with him, he's from a new franchise. It wouldn't have made any sense for him to NOT come with a new folder, so how does this teach us anything?

I know. But he was free for literally everyone who bought the game Prior to the end of February. Not just on release.

I really like Joker and appreciate all the effort they put into the character (reveal trailer, music, stage, even side characters cheering on). If they include Goku and show his franchise as much love as they did for Persona, we could have something very special.

$5 says Piranha plant was supposed to be in Base game but was pushed to DLC to help Sell Copies for Early purchases.

I mean evidence:
1: Has a Palutena's Guidance Convo.

That's bullshit. We know that Piranha Plant was always meant to be a bonus character that people could get for free. The fact that he has a Palutena's Guidance just means that they decided on the bonus character before the fighters pass characters.

What characters are people expecting in Ultimate? We're practically at the bottom of the barrel for Nintendo characters and there is no shoe-in 3rd party character. Even the characters that the fanbase "expects", would be considered surprises.

delusional

Denial

There is no way in hell that Felicia would ever make it into fucking Smash. Even ignoring the fact that Morrigan will always be the first pick for crossovers, Nintendo would sooner put Jedah into Smash and make his attacks purple slime like in MvCI before putting in the walking family-friendly-image-ruining headline that is Felicia. I am well aware of her character and backstory, that doesn't change the truth of the matter.

Smash 4s DLC was half of that so expect at least 2 more just to not be disappointed.

Not a separate rep, but it still counts for Prime.

What do I do against this asshole as Ridley? He's the only thing I see anymore and his base form is manageable but then you hit him a few times and "Perthonaaaaaa~" and his fuck buddy pops out giving him the strength of Ganondorf in with the speed and range of an FE character. Fucking god damn.
