Why not two of them?

Did Joker kind of fuck up Dante's chances?
reimu, without a doubt
Minecrafts 10 anniversary is this friday
Its his time
I'm hoping for Dante, Travis, and Banjo, but Dante and Travis was deconfirmed and they might go with Steve instead of Banjo but I'm not sure
Giant sword=tiny knife
Shotgun=a regular gun
Off course user!!
Is it already 10 years old?
Guess I have to play some minecraft on friday
None, i want actual first part Nintendo characters, and not promotional ones like another FE characters because Three Houses is on the horizon. The fact that all the "leaks" point to third part only is beyond disgusting.
>but Dante and Travis was deconfirmed and they might go with Steve instead of Banjo but I'm not sure
Dante was "deconfirmed" because there was no Devil May Cry game on a Nintendo Console, then the DMC1 announcement came.
And when was Travis deconfirmed?
>shotgun
They'd HAVE to use Ebony & Ivory, and you know it
like who?
I prefer the real boomer pick
This. Smash 4's DLC was a complete waste of time, I don't want a repeat of that shitstorm.
>Ryu
>Cloud
>Bayo
>waste of time
Are you retarded?
Heck, the worst DLC of 4 was a Nintendo character (Kamui)
Hades, Medusa, Black Shadow, King Hippo, Vaati, Impa, Porky, Masked Man, Marx, Rundus, Dixie Kong.
Just for some examples.
Are you me?
Reggie described the fighter's pass as 'introducing series that have yet to be represented in Smash' at the VGAs. iirc.
That's personally why I think all the picks are gonna be 3rd party. Pretty much every existing Nintendo IP is represented through assist trophy or spirit.
I was gonna mention Star Tropics, but Nintendo of Japan is adamant in pretending it doesn't exist, so why bother.
Doshin the Giant is not a spirit
>a third-party unrelated to Nintendo
>anything but a waste of time
I'll concede that this only applies to one character in 4, but no DLC before or after was able to fix the damage that character did to the series.
I agree with you, but Cloud is fucking iconic to the vidya Industry.
"Cloud vs OoT Link: Who's the best protagonist?" was the biggest Late 90's rivalry on shitty vidya forums
Dante, or chosen undead. Maybe Kiryu.
Someone like Erdrick or Reimu would not be revealed at a western event like E3, wait till a direct in autumn for that.
When Suda was showing off TSA in a stream and everyone was asking about Smash and he told them Travis wasn't in. But I'm pretty sure this was before the game was even released, and far before DLC was announced.
I don't think he's going to make it in but I still have hopes they're going to do a NMH3 and Smash trailer similar to Isabelle announcing the new AC
>Hades, Medusa, Vaati
Your rosterfag privileges are being revoked. Sorry.
The only way to justify adding Cloud is to add Sephiroth as well.
>DLC has a new character spear heading it
>Banjo would be the perfect nostalgia bait.
Suda and the Translator said: "Travis won't be on smash... for now".
Maybe because they didn't want the stream to be spammed with TRAVIS FOR SMASH TRAVIS FOR SMASH TRAVIS FOR SMASH.
At least we'll get NMH3
>Suda and the Translator said: "Travis won't be on smash... for now".
That kinda stuff gives me hope for DLC
>Maybe because they didn't want the stream to be spammed with TRAVIS FOR SMASH TRAVIS FOR SMASH TRAVIS FOR SMASH.
Exactly, I think he just said it to shut them up, the steam was about his game, not smash hype
>most of the first-party characters I wanted are already spirits
Wasn't Dante in the Ultimate leaks long ago?
It could be anyone except for a Waluigi.
Adeleine would be a good choice.
> le crazy boomer pizza man
> cereal box mascot
Travis is the only good choice there and he's probably fucked since he's an incredibly niche character
Based, Ashley is in
I chose HER
I really want Travis, but I don't want another fucking generic sword character. As long as they could keep his moves fresh, I'd be on board.
>Dante
>"another fucking generic sword character"
>Reimu
Literally Touwho. Are reimufags the most delusional of the rosterfags?
Also, samefagging this hard
Banjo
>They make his moveset based off his part time jobs
>Side b lawn mower
>Down b land mine destroying
>Hold b to pump gas and accidentally set yourself on fire
>Up b to jump on your motorcycle
Reimu!
Wrestling moves and Skill Chips from TSA
Outside of Impa, these choices all suck hard, and even I think Impa would just be a semi-clone of Sheik. If these are the options available now, I'd wholeheartedly take a bunch of Third-Party promotional reps that kick ass.
People will claim that Travis was disconfirmed, but nothing about what Suda said means anything.
Marina would be great, though her stage would likely be horrifying.
Wrestling moves, Skill Chips, Sword battery meter, etc. He'd be way more distinct than any of the FE reps outside of Robin and Corrin
>Masked Man
Bane?
>Smash character reveal at an anime con
I hope so, I'm going to Suda's panel, that would be amazing
In case you actually dont know, he's referring to the "mysterious" Masked Man from Mother 3. It's a terrible pick
Luke? Is that you??
Doomguy.
Bruh just look at the amount of stuff in Dante's arsenal, they can make any kind of character they want out of him with that kind of variety.
Both trash
I like Startropics, but Mike's core abilities, being a kid with some minor telepathic powers who uses a yo yo and a baseball bat sounds awfully familiar...
*blocks your path*
It was never personnel....... kid....
Kill yourself zoomer faggot
Porky and Dixie Kong are pretty good picks. So would be Chibi-Robo, Mach Rider, and Adeleine.
Insider here. The DLC characters are
>Doom Slayer
>Banjo-Kazooie
>Ryu Hayabusa
>Artorias
I'll agree with Chibi Robo and Mach Rider, but not the others.
I would love a Dark Souls character. Nobody seems to ever talk about that.
Just in time for the DLC
What Joker lacks, is coming from a good game.
Lucky for you the leak of the week has a dark souls character
yeah, nobody!
If Dark Souls gets a rep it'd be Chosen Undead, not Artorias.
If you were forced to bet money on a single dlc character, who would you go with?
I'm honestly considering Banjo as the safest bet, personally
Based
Kiryu
Dark Souls rep, either Chosen Undead or Solaire.
A Dragon Quest rep of some kind I feel is the safest bet
You should reconsider. They'd each be pretty unique and fun, except maybe Dixie.
He’s done more then enough to earn his spot on the roster, I give him a 95% chance
Steve is the safest bet that or Erdrick
I'd bet 25 cents on a Sword/Shield Pokemon getting in
He’s inevitable
As others have said, A DQ rep or a MS rep. I'm not sure if it'd be a hero or Slime from DQ, so I'd put my money on Banjo. Even though MS has other characters that have a shot, Banjo seems like the one Sakurai would push for most. A DQ rep is fairly guaranteed unless Sakurai is really adamant about getting Chrono or Geno for some reason.
okay but,
hear me out
Leave. If you genuinely want all of these in a non-meme sense, you need to reconsider your choices
new Panel de Pon WHENNNN
just make a digital e-shop game or some shit, cmon
>realize Steve and Banjo&Kazooie cant possibly both get in in the same Fighter's Pass meaning Shantae Banjo&Kazooie and Sora are guaranteed.
Sakurai would probably push Steve if given the opportunity, he’s a Minecraft fanboy after all
sort of but the argument i have against this is at least if they were to give him a style switching system they could make Ebony and Ivory different enough from jokers gun
No
I doubt it honestly. Sakurai actually has taste for good art direction, which Minecraft in general is lacking but Steve most so. I doubt he'd want that clunky-ass in the game.
Sakurai seems to disagree
Buzzwole!
Persona 5 is honestly a very appealing game for a number of reasons, it's just not my demographic. I love the feel of the game but the game doesn't respect your time - If I were a Japanese high schooler with a lot of free time on my hands I can see why the game would be a hit.
Sakurai commented in a Famitsu article on his enjoyment of Battle Chef Brigade. Does she have a shot, guys?
The way I see it:
If I didn't know anything about videogames, and compared Steve as a character to other smash dlc like Joker, Bayo, Cloud, and Ryu, I'd feel like I got ripped the fuck off.
Everyone has these great 3D models with fluid animations and even different facial expressions, but now they're giving me a low-poly, static-faced lego brick that can't even articulate his joints?
Sure, we got minimalist styled characters like G&W and Villager, but this is for the Fighter's Pass. All separately payed DLC that cost the same amount as eachother. I'd want premium work put into every aspect of the character, like it is for the past dlc newcomers.
well said.
Roto
Master Chief
Heihachi
Lip (Panel de Pon)
You're welcome
Are you Sakurai? No
>Implying Steve wouldn’t get “premium”
treatment
>he mad
If Steve doesn't look like this he's not Steve anymore. Horrifying meme renders be damned
I wish I could go forward in time to when Steve and Erdrick get announced so I can see this board wallowing in their own tears
Sorry pal, but this was his leaked render
Cringe
Tired of these lame DLC fighters. Here’s the real stuff.
You're not Steve. You're an eldritch shape-shifter trying to imitate him
>irritating meme renders
Sorry, but his final smash has been leaked
Banjo followed by Ryu Hayabusa, Doomguy, and Artorias
let's say hypothetically that microsoft really wanted that dlc money and got 2 characters in, and want to thematically tie the two into one announcement to not have to spend money on a second trailer.
which two would they be?
>steve and banjo for appeal to both sides of the -oomer demographic
>banjo and rash for pure rare nostalgia
>steve and cuphead for indie representation
>banjo and master chief for possible port shilling
>no good morning Yea Forums Steve pasta
Discord kiddies must be at school
>implying they won’t phonepost in class
This would honeslty be pretty awesome. Phoenix, Eggman, and Quote/Curly? I'd take that with Steve any day
I highly doubt that the entire DLC will come and go without Nintendo attempting to make one of the 5 a huge bombshell like Cloud, Sonic, Bayonetta, Snake, Ridley, and K. Rool were.
And Banjo is the last major bombshell tier addition remaining.
I don't know if he's next, though, probably at E3 or The Game Awards 2019. So either next or a long wait.
Yeah even if Microsoft aren't personally invested in the character I doubt they'd be up for a total redesign of him with all the merch he has. Though I would hope Sakurai could fix him up a little to avoid stuff like his walk cycle looking like he's not touching the stage and whatnot.
>Retards posting characters like Reimu, Porky, etc.
This isn't about which characters you want for smash, but which characters could be the next one to be announced.
Neither Reimu, Porky or any other shitty pick have strong chances or hints of being the second DLC character compared to those in the OP.
Maybe Sora or Erdrick.
unironically looks like a Smash boss.
Steve is something I’d be more invested in but if it’d make you feel better you could have Banjo over him
Autists cannot determine the difference and legitimately think those characters have a shot.
I really hope we get Travis. I voted for him in the SSB4 Fighter Ballot and the promise for a special announcement at E3 may just be the thing we need... Unless Suda51 is trolling again.
i hope to GOD its NONE OF THEM and we get another (heh) Joker, something no one guessed or pushed on this shitty nu reddit clone that you fucks ruined.
he said "these are characters who are new to the series" not "these characters are from new series (plural)"
stop spreading that bs
I dont really like Banjo either. my Rare pick would be the Battletoads, but I have zero expectations of them ever being added before Steve or Banjo.
Well they havent yet
I just want Suda to go off-script on stage again. That was pretty entertaining hearing the translator try and fail to keep up with him.
You sure?
>Steve doesnt get in as a fighter but as an eldrtich boss
Jesus christ I didn't even realize that was Steve
Based
There’s even ken, incineroar, shantae, and possibly even more in that abomination
Travis and Viewtiful Joe are my most wanted characters by a long shot. The ones that if they ever got in I'd be forever satisfied with any later additions. I know that was K Rool for many people. At the moment, with Viewtiful Joe being dead, this is Travis' last hope.
just so you know, that tumble minigame in the pre-bedrock console version has a soundtrack that would be pretty well suited for smash alongside the ambient stuff of the normal soundtrack
youtube.com
I'd rather have pic related
>Not Lu Bu
>not kid goku
I honestly think this would bring in the most new players than any other picks, but I would never want them in the game (aside from Ryu).
Also This
I would really prefer Kid Goku, but if we're being honest, his chances are even less than Adult Goku's which is already extremely small.
based pedophile
>Steve
I need to make one in the other DLC template
this one looks nice
saved
The only thing that irks me is Pichu, but for some fucking reason he's the only rep of Gold/Silver
9/10 no travis touchdown
My favorite additions are when they bring back characters from forgotten or otherwise niche series. Game and Watch, Duck Hunt, ROB, Shulk, Ice Climbers, Ness, etc. Fire Emblem was originally in this category, but not any character post-Ike in Brawl desu.
For that reason I would love Chrono or Geno over other Square reps, but I hardly believe they have a chance.
Do you honestly think some generic weeb shit from a game whose main claim to fame is bullet hell and music has enough of a chance to get into smash?
Be real with me. What reason would she be included?
Name me one other video game franchise with two annual conventions.
tiermaker.com
Sadly there's no Travis Touchdown
>inb4 "look how much fanart there is!"
>no kiryu
It'd have to be another franchise whose gameplay appeals to people with severe autism.
minecraft
And? Just because something has a convention or has vague references to it doesn't mean it has a chance to make it smash. Doesn't help Nintendo picked the DLC roster and I seriously doubt Touhou is even a blip on their radar.
based taste
Style swap on neutral b similar to shulk
It's already been confirmed to be Artorias, Banjo, Doomguy and Ryu Hayabusa.
>severe autism
>hardcore gameplay involves a heavy reliance on memorization and pattern recognition
checks out
Tell me then what do you think a franchise has to have to be considered for smash if popularity and legacy apparently aren't important.
goku
Please neck yourself.
Broad western appeal.
Minecon is only once a year, Reitaisai is twice.
We shall see if Sakurai and nintendo agree with you on that point.
So you're saying those players are MORE autistic than hardcore Minecraft players? Geez user, that's not nice.
Well the JOKER was the first DLC character. So expect DLC that's even more shitty than Smash 4.
Smash will get ONE character that is specifically a non-western-appeal character, and that's a DQ rep. Sakurai wouldn't push it past that.
>Ryu
Has nothing to do with Nintendo and there are far more interesting/ more deserving characters
>Cloud
Would have preferered the protagonist from FF4, or anyone from a FF game on a NINTNEDO console. Not grossly used up weeb boy.
>Bayo
lmfao worst character in smash, right next to Joker.
Bub!
1/10
Most of these characters are literally whos and NO geno/Spyro/the amount of sword fighting weebys/STEVE makes this laughable.
People are still forgetting that Yooka Laylee and Hat in Time were funded because people wanted a more Banjo esque game
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
yOU FOOL
Most people on this board don't want to admit it because back then it was fortnite tier to them. They still hold onto that despite Minecraft being an old enough franchise to warrant a spot.
Terrible. Clearly your a LGBT or a feminist, seriously. Just boring WHO women, fuck off.
>One of these guys
Ok retard
This seems like a lot of literal-who shit choices user, most of it is bottom of the barrel tier
>Ryu
>Has nothing to do with Nintendo
How can someone be THIS retarded?
>Ryu has nothing to do with Nintendo
>people are genuinely asking for King Hippo now
Based Cunnysseur
No, they literally said "Travis isn't DLC for Smash Ultimate. Maybe he'll get in the next game."
The livestream was in late December, so Smash was out and we knew of the DLC pass.
Not him but no matter what they said, no developer is going to say "Yes, X is in the game!" or "IDK :)" Travis is a long-shot, but what they said basically means nothing.
To continue, If a dev said "IDK :)" I would be LESS inclined to believe a character was in, just that the dev is hoping for some easy attention on their game.
Minecraft deserves recognition but a character isn’t it
Nobody wanted the idea of a character until a dumbass insider suggested the idea and now everyone is assuming the Minecraft content is a character
>Ryu
>Has nothing to do with Nintendo and there are far more interesting/ more deserving characters
How can you be this retarded
Minecraft Mii Costume seems like the most obvious thing coming.
You know what else deserves recognition?
Angry Birds
Too good for this world.
Falco is already in the game.
Sakurai would do a much better job with these guys than fucking Iron Galaxy. What a mess.
Purists are the biggest retards in the entire Smash cesspool.
That's a shame, all i can hope it was a ploy to get people shut up about smash. We'll see I suppose but I doubt it
a Dark Souls rep, either the Chosen Undead, Ashen One, or Soul of Cinder
Womp, womp, womp, womp, she give me what I wanna
As long as Wright is in im buying
I would KILL for Mach Rider.
He's a never ever, but still.
>Erdrick
Not gonna happen.
Steve or Erdrick.
Shit, full of clones
Actually had an impact in either the industry or is recognizable enough by the general public.
I will give it to you that some picks are shilling like Corrin and Incinieroar. But on the whole, every character/ franchise in smash at the moment has deep roots or at least connections,
Touhou in the broadest of scopes in obscure as fuck. And not in the retro obscure sense like Ice Climbers and Game and Watch.
Not only was it hard to get into for the average joe, but the genre it's in isn't the easiest to get into.
Touhou fans like to pretend it's bigger than it actually is when in reality, it's a niche.
>angry about literally whos
>wants geno
were you able to save it without creating an account
I hope Travis gets in for Suda's sake. He would've fit better than Bayonetta as the pseudo first party pick.
You're alright, user
Shmups genre is as niche as it comes. Shmups that feature little girls is becoming even more niche.
None of them.
Got an honest question for you guys. If not Banjo and Kazooie, who, if anyone, would honestly be able to fill the role of bombshell reveal that Brawl, 4 base game, 4's DLC cycle, and Ultimate's base game all had?
Banjo has the combined factors of:
>Being from a competitors side of the fence and not something most people think is possible, like Snake, Cloud, and Sonic did
>Overwhelming fan demand like K. Rool, Ridley, and Sonic had
>Their inclusion would bring a substantial piece of Nintendo history back into the limelight after difficulties like with Megaman
Banjo hits every single note that the previous bombshell reveals have while also having the benefit of being the main character of the last major release for a Nintendo console not yet featured in the Smash Brothers series (unless you count Golf which isn't really an IP and doesn't have a character).
And before you say it, "What about [Insert big name series here] because it's big" doesn't necessarily make it a bombshell. Ryu was welcome by the fans, but wasn't seen as a bombshell addition while the smaller Megaman series was. And K. Rool and Ridley were seen as bombshells despite being significantly nicher than many additions to the series.
And if you really think that Nintendo is going to pass up the marketing potential of having an addition that blows fans minds like Sonic and Cloud tied to the other members of the fighter pass you're delusional. They're going to have at least one newcomer who's addition has more weight going for it than just "hey looks its [character] from [series]!"
Considering Suda covered Sakurai's ass when Brawl got delayed, coupled with TSA and potentially NMH3 being Switch exclusive, I think he's a good choice.
Your shitty cereal box mascot will NEVER be in
>being from a competitors side of the fence
We may recognize Banjo as being owned by MS and would feel that sort of surprise, but culturally the general public does not look at Banjo as a Microsoft property, and is still associated with N64. I'd say even Spyro/Crash would be a bigger deal to the general public, who associates them heavily as competition to Mario in those days.
So just refusteve seething then, gotcha.
but Tony the Tiger is already in the game, stupid
Honestly, the series has a fair chance if Bandai Namco wants to include a second fighter owned by them in Smash. Dark Souls and From Software are both massive names in terms of video games.
No one is denying touhou is niche, but you also can't deny that it did make a significant impact on the industry, see
i genuinely have hope for banjo
Both of these would be fantastic.
Everyone who knows about Banjo knows about the buyout and that MS would need to be involved to obtain them, dumbass.
>I'd say even Spyro/Crash would be a bigger deal
We've pulled the "woah look a character from Sony's side of the fence" shtick 3 times already. Diminishing returns have made it so that it's not a bombshell anymore. Joker wasn't, further "dude look a not-Sony character" additions won't be either. They'll be welcome, but it'll just be "dude look it's crash/spyro from crash bandicoot/spyro the dragon" not "holy shit I can't believe we managed to get ____ in the game" like it was for the bombshells.
>Vaati
>Masked Man
>Marx
>Fucking Rundas
Try to be a bit realistic, man.
Steve or Master Chief, because of those Microsoft/Nintendo hints
this looks like complete dogshit
I said bombshells, user
>unless you count Golf which isn't really an IP and doesn't have a character
God damn it, this
>Master Chief wouldn't be a bombshell
I want Banjo & Kazooie too and Master Chief has been all but deconfirmed, but it's idiotic to claim that Halo crossing over for Smash wouldn't be a bombshell reveal.
Just to spell this out further for everyone
Bombshells:
>Snake? Holy shit I can't believe we're doing guest characters now!
>Sonic? Holy shit I can't believe Sega and Nintendo teamed up and that I can fight Sonic vs Mario now!
>Megaman? Holy shit I can't believe Sakurai revived him!
>Cloud? Holy shit nobody thought this would happen in their wildest dreams since he's so closely associated with the PS1!
>Bayonetta? I can't believe they're letting such a raunchy character in! Cool!
>Ridley? No fucking way Sakurai actually listened the absolute madman!
>K. Rool? No fucking way Sakurai REALLY listened to us! They both got in together!
>Banjo and Kazooie? What the fuck Nintendo really got Microsoft on board just to bring a Nintendo character home? Awesome!
Not Bombshells:
>Oh cool it's Pac-Man! Makes sense since Bandai Namco works on the game
>Oh cool Ryu is DLC! Makes sense since Capcom is already on board
>Oh cool Simon Belmont got in! Makes sense with Konami back on board
>Oh cool it's Isabelle from Animal Crossing and AC Switch
Best taste ITT
are you genuinely implying that motherfucking Master Chief wouldn't be a bombshell? I dont even like the series or want him in the game and can recognize the impact it would make
Spyro is not that big outside the US and is a literally who in JAPAN.
Only Crash applies
>Ryu
>Pac-Man
>Not bombshells
Either you're a fucking zoomer or just trolling
I don't really see how Banjo is a bombshell, most people don't associate him with microsoft
They are Banjo & Kazooie
Simon Belmont was a fairly big deal, but I will say that Snake coming back was a bigger one, if only because it meant that Konami pulled their heads out of their asses for Ultimate. As soon as Bomberman showed up as an AT I knew Simon was coming.
Neither we're remotely surprising or mind-blowing, you don't know what a bombshell is
They didn't have EPIIIIC reveal videos Simon's reveal was unfortunately spoiled. As was Ryus so he doesn't see them as big deals.
Steve and Master Chief didn't start on Nintendo and Chief was never on a Nintendo console.
I agree that Banjo hits every bell there is.
Surprised you put Lip and not Viridi.
Chrono.
Geno, to a lesser extent.
But Chrono.
Yup, a fucking zoomer.
Also, Ryu wasn't surprising because he got leaked (images and I think some video) weeks before his announcement.
People on the scene like ANTi were like "FUCK! Just imagine the shitstorm his announcement would've been if he wasn't leaked some days ago!"
Both were great inclusions, but back during the Smash 4 days neither one was considered a potential inclusion that would be shocking before their respective reveals. Ryu may have had more of an impact at least, but they were casually datamined two months before their reveal, ruining the surprise. Even if that didn't happen, they still wouldn't have beaten Mega Man or Cloud's reveal. Pac-Man was just highly expected going into E3 2014.
Really, lots of Square Enix characters could be potential bombshells. It's a shame they don't want to play ball more when it comes to Smash.
updated
Ryu is literally Mr. Crossover, once Mega Man got in it was obvious his inclusion was only a matter of time
Individually, these characters could be fun and sensible inclusions. The issue is simply that you put them all together.
This. I'd say Capcom and Square have the biggest potential for bombshells. Given Smash's pull, we can only hope Sakurai gets another Square character in.
That said, Leon Kennedy or Jill would get a lot of attention.
Based retard, they were never seen as surprising or unrealistic before their inclusion. Which is that determining factor for bombshell status
Ashley isn't sensible at all
Not him (thank god), but I really thought Ashley had a chance. I don't even like the character but she had a lot going for her
>end of October Direct
>Warioware gold just came out
>Decent popularity, enough to warrant an AT to begin with
If she were to use magic to summon the random shit from Warioware she would be a perfect rep.
I mean he could probably be considered one but I feel like he's significantly less of one than Banjo
>Lacks the overwhelming demand
>Due to MS and Nintendos good relationship being telegraphed l, the flagship MS character is a substantially more possible and expected pick than it would have been a game ago
Chief in Smash during Brawl or even maybe Smash 4 would have beaten Banjo as a bombshell though. As it stands he only hits 1 of the bombshell qualities whole Banjo lands all of them and is the last major Nintendo release to be added.
oh and in Warioware Gold they gave her a voice for the first time, which would have coincided with her addition to Smash.
That'll be $25 plus tax
>6 Sonic characters
go back to DeviantArt faggot
honestly, i just want either Lip or Arle. Either magical puzzle loli would do. I like Viridi but I wouldn't want her as a playable character
the other two are jokes, if we were to get a Warioware rep, I want it to be Jimmy or Mona goddamnit
If it weren't for Joker I would have added Adeleine from Kirby in there as well
She's had a voice since her debut, you retarded secondary. Every WarioWare character has been voiced since their debut. If anything Gold fucks it up by swapping out their distinct and stylish voices with more generic and flat ones. I guess they wanted new voices to match the new art direction.
Good taste. Jimmy, Mona, and Pyoro are the best Warioware characters.
Adeleine is the only little girl pick I don't have an issue with because she's cute and childish in the way all classic Kirby characters are. She doesn't seem like loli bait at all.
Why no a croosover version?
They were fully-voiced in earlier titles? As in, cutscene dialogue and stuff? I thought it was just generic sound bites
>Pyoro
BASEADO
Baseado?
>That said, Leon Kennedy or Jill would get a lot of attention.
How are they bombshells, though, user?
Capcom is already on board and the mature content barrier has been broken. How are they blowing fans minds? What new ground are they breaking in terms of inclusions?
It's not just about series size, some of the series bombshells have been small characters/series. An indie character becoming a fighter would be a something of a bombshell for example because it comes as a major surprise.
Doomguy
I just got new info that the next character is buzz lightyear
How does Chrono blow away peoples expectations? I'm not saying he's unwelcome but how is he a bombshell and not just a quality inclusion?
literally so based
Those voice clips were far from generic, they had a lot of character. Ashley in particular was a lot more expressive and had a more fun personality on top of being gloomy, she wasn't just monotone and dull all the time. She even sang her own song. And don't try to move the goal post from "voiced for the first time," to, "fully-voiced, as in cutscene dialogue and stuff."
I love how people ignore the years where youtubers wouldn’t shut the fuck Up about Banjo-Kazooie being a memorable huge game
I love how people are ignoring that Yooka Laylee got funded in less than a day, Hat in time also being funded in genera, because people wanted Banjo Kazooie style games
I love how people were dismissing the old smash ballot because according to literally no one, K Rool is the only thing we are getting
Basically just a long-ignored series, outside of literal ports, and a huge long-shot considering all the other much more likely inclusions Square has to promote.
I really wanted to head down there and get him to sign some stuff, but I don't think I can make it now
Reminder that Doomguy > Banjo as far as western "retro" reps go.
>Erdrick wasn't talked about before for Smash, you're fake fans!
>Artorias? Y-yeah, I love that character!

you already posted this and all it comes down to is Souls fans wanting a rep regardless of who it ends up being
>believing any leak
Holy shit the delusion
characters in the game have spirits
Wow, how about relax and don't get so triggered, dumbass. Not once did I say I disliked their characterization before, or that I even liked having them fully voiced. It's not like there were features talking about how these characters were being fully voiced for the first time or anything:
polygon.com
siliconera.com
>Minecraft wouldn’t be a bombshell
Yes it would retard
No one who is constantly circlejerked here about how likely they are could possibly be a bombshell. Someone who people think is impossible would be actually be surprising.
Miku or Reimu would be bombshells.
Doomguy or Ezio would be bombshells.
Goku would be a fucking huge bombshell.
Banjo or Chrono would not be bombshells, they break no perceived rules rosterfags had and are not someone you wouldn't expect to see in Smash.
Back to Smashboards and both of them would die
>no "Ultimate Battle"
This is gonna she like milk once Erdrick gets in and one off dark souls dlc boss does not
>Nintendo chooses Suda51 as one of the first devs to see the switch
>Nintendo asks him to revive Travis to help appeal tonwestern audiences
>Nintendo gives Suda51 center stage the reveal alongside industry giants teehee like Todd Howard
>Nintendo advertises and distributes TSA in NA and EU
>Travis has had 3 exclusive games and originated on Nintendo unlike Bayonetta gtfo with that Heroes Paradise shit, Suda disowns it and only zoomers played those versions
>implying GhM and Nintendo didn't see the reaction to TSA and a demand for an NMH3 proper
I honestly have more hope now that they said Nintendo picked the characters because sakurai sure as shit wasn't going to add him
Good thing Artorias isn’t in
It's aged like milk already.
>not wanting this gem as a stage
>Wow, how about relax and don't get so triggered, dumbass.
Pot, meet kettle.
>Not once did I say I disliked their characterization before
Not once did I imply that you did.
>It's not like there were features talking about how these characters were being fully voiced for the first time or anything
It's not like that matters in the slightest.
Holy shit guys!
Fighter spirits or different versions, yeah.
Wtf he’s in
Please stop representing the Warioware fanbase, you're embarrassing us. Just be glad the series isn't completely dead yet
You got those from some fake ass leak, hang yourself
Minecraft wouldn’t be repped with anything less then a fighter
You have one of the worst opinions I have ever seen here.
Please get out.
I didn't list characters I WANT to be in, but these are characters that would be actual bombshells, whether you and I like it or not.
Google theory is fake, how could anyone believe it
seething Banjoke
Wishful thinking
people desperate for one of those 4 characters
The only character I’d want on the list is Doomguy
Yes, and you have shit opinions
Agreed.
so one of the 4?
Yeah, but I don’t believe in the leak
Steve will be shown as part of Mojang's Minecraft 10th Anniversary announcement on May 17th (Friday). Banjo will be revealed as the big E3 Fighter. This will be accompanied by Microsoft and Nintendo representatives meeting on stage to express their gratitude on the success of crossplay. To tie things up, Cuphead's DLC will be shown (with a release date) to signify the partnership.
>Three Microsoft reps
Kill yourself
>Ezio would be a bombshell
Holy shit my sides
>reading comprehension
>speedreading this hard
fucking hell are you alright faggot, user meant cuphead's dlc. not cuphead in smash as dlc
Sure, Chrono and Banjo in smash would be quite beloved, but they would not be bombshells because they would be unsurprising.
This is not my opinion it's basically fact.
What would your reaction be when someone like Ezio or say, Master Chief gets in? A western character from a somewhat mature series with little connection to nintendo. Would it not be surprising?
>Sakurai refuses to put his friends character in for some reason so Nintendo has to come in and make him do it
Steve would be a bigger bombshell then all of those characters
>Steve
>bigger bombshell than Doomguy
Less important, sure.
OK RETARDS, SAKURAI HERE, IM NOT SCREAMING, MY CAPS KEY BROKE.
ANYWAYS, THE NEXT DLC CHARACTER IS GOING TO BE CHRONO FROM CHRONO TRIGGER, I ALREADY PUT A MII COSTUME OF STEVE SO STOP POSTING HIM ALREADY, AND DON'T ASK ME FOR ANITHING AGAIN
Not really everyone excepts him
Ezio wouldn't but everyone else would
Your saying fucking Reimu would be a bombshell
>us
You speak for nobody but yourself.
>Just be glad the series isn't completely dead yet
It is though.
Requested =/= Expected
Getting another console manufacturer on board>>>>>lol gritty western series
Yes, the imaginary rules are there aren't any indie characters allowed
Banjo would only be "unsurprising" to you, a tiny demographic of people who discuss this shit every day. Chrono would absolutely be a huge deal, given how dead the series is.
Nobody gives a fuck about Reimu. If there ever will be an indie rep it’ll be Steve?
>Chrono Trigger considered the best game of the current Era by Japs, Beating SM64,OoT,FFVII, Etc.
>"they would not be bombshells because they would be unsurprising. This is not my opinion it's basically fact."
Seriously, get out
Steve isn't really indie anymore
Steve is indie
>people like the game so it would be a bombshell
It's exactly the kind of thing you expect in Smash to drop.
>Steve would be the Microsoft rep even though they've done nothing but own the character
>Steve would also be called the indie rep despite being owned by one of the biggest companies on Earth
>gets tilted that someone mentioned the voices in Warioware
mhm. Sure thing pal.
Stevefags btfo
based sakurai blessing this imageboard
>some character that wasn't in the leaks gets in
>everyone claims they knew they were getting in and screencaps some larp thread with no replies and the cycle continues
February can't come soon enough
They gave Steve a lot toys and Minecraft started out as indie
Make sense please.
What leak
Hoping they'll do another joker tier pick so that no amount of larping will save people
Same shit happened with Plant and Joker
Nobody believes the “google leak” anyways
There was at least a few people who said joker but it means nothing because they just picked a third party that was already affiliated with Smash and picked their most popular character. It was either Joker or Kiryu basically
People do, but I think it's just bias
his final smash better be X-Strike with Frog or I'm gonna beat your ass Sakurai
What makes the google leak credible
>implying Megaman deserves for than one fighter
>not knowing that Ms. Pacman is fanfiction
>Krystal, Waddle-Dee, Villager, King Hippo, Shadow, Sora, Crash
>Decidueye instead of Torterra or Sceptile
>Robin instead of Tharja
>Jibanyan instead of Layton
>Terry instead of Nakoruru
>Wonder Red instead of AC
>Scorpion instead of a fighting game character that exists in Japan
>100+ roster without Sami, Shovel Knight, Curly Brace, Reimu, Travis, Leon, 2B, Solaire, Bub&Bob, or Arle
Some characters wouldn't show up when searched. But I don't believe it, it's either search history ads or someone spending $10 on an ad to fuck with the community
Some people got Sora to work
Banjo and Erdrick.
>
>they gave her a voice for the first time
>Reeee!
>Reeeee!
I’m sorry you were unable to infer that I was talking about them being fully voiced, despite you apparently being such a big fan that you had to rush to your beloved Ashley’s defense.
Dante was deconfirmed straight from the horse's mouth though, not through conjecture
Steve and Erdrick, it’s what the leaks say
Eekum, and I can't stress this enough, Bokum.
>Sakurai's friends characters get in
Tell that to Suda
Back to Smashboards
Oo-mi-nackas
I'm not a big fan of Ashley though. And I'm sorry I upset you, but I sincerely don't understand what I said to make you angry. All I did is say she didn't have a voice for the first time in Gold then respond to your opinion that the original sound bytes were generic.
Yes, just right click on “Save Image as”
I want Travis just for NMH tracks.

i'm not angry in the least, you sounded upset and defensive in those posts. When i was just asking for information about how character voices were treated before (i.e. not fully voiced), you jumped upon to claim i was a "retarded secondary" and was "moving goalposts"
t least you realize Chris Redfield will get in before those literal whos.
are there any good summaries of google theory? it feels like every time someone brings it up they mention some new 'development' that happened in the last 24hrs or so and i'm getting lost
Next four 7s get in
There’s no such thing as “old enough” you either get picked or you don’t that’s the only rule that makes sense.
Maybe play the games if you don't like being a retarded secondary, they're pretty good games.
Chris redfield.
Oh shit.
Basically if you turn off all the stuff that would make Google give you tailored ads, searching Banjo-Kazooie, Artorias, Doom Guy and Ryu Hayabusa in conjunction with Smash in a very specific way gives you an ad to the Fighter's Pass. But I'm pretty sure it's already been deconfirmed.
Stone Cold Steve Austin
Again, nice attitude. I have played them I wasn’t sure if I was misremembering because I thought the voiced cutscenes was a new thing
>But I'm pretty sure it's already been deconfirmed.
thanks for the explanation, but the above is what i'm trying to parse. can somebody tell me what happened that deconfirmed the theory?
Put Osaka in, faggot
Rolling for Goku
People got shit like Sora and Hitler
I want Travis in but I feel like it'd be a monkey paw wish because he'd be based off the dog shit switch game.
They'd draw from all his titles, but yes most of his special abilities aside from the battery meter would come from the TSA chips. I'm okay with that though.
BASED! QTST ANIMU GRILL EVER IS FINALLY IN SMASH
Sora and Hitler ()
>Consecutive posts
>Both are anime characters
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
You’re both fags in desperate need of a daily dose. Now bend over.
iirc, some stuff came out in Discord heavily implying this was all a fabricated leak somebody made, potentially involving purchasing adspace on google?

GOOD MOOOOOOOORNING Yea Forums! Just wanted to remind you that we’re another day closer to Banjo (yes, THE Banjo from Banjo-Kazooie) getting confirmed in Smash Ultimate! Make sure to save your tears for the upcoming Fighter Pass when Banjo & Kazooie walks into the spotlight!
>b-but Microsoft has a good relationship with Nintendo rn! He’s gotta be in!
“No!”
Sorry Stevefags, but the Microsoft rep is taken by yours truly!, Just because Nintendo & Microsoft are making Minecraft stuff on Nintendo's consoles & handheld's doesn't mean Steve is in, & Why would Nintendo choose a terribly animated character over a character that has been requested ever since Melee & Phil Spencer acknowledged Banjo & Kazooie being in Smash instead of Steve? Sakurai went way out of his way to talk up Persona 5 before Joker's reveal, guess what other game he's talked up? That's right it's Banjo & Kazooie back then. Don't forget that the Minecraft dev team De-confirmed that blockhead, also, the Smash Ultimate Joker showcase that came out in April, it was a green witch, hinting Banjobros & Kazooiebros are coming in Ultimate. Also, the new google leak that showed up?, that confirms Banjo & Kazooie bitches. The DLC characters have also been confirmed to be “surprising” according to the developers, so I’m afraid your years of crying for Steve are going to be subverted just like Erdrickfags, Dongobongfagget, BillyBo10k, & Virginbitch with the reveal of our favorite underdog! But feel free to continue your denial. Your tears of disappointment will be all the more sweeter & bitter!

To be fair, Iron Man and Thanos both die from the last snap, so by that logic Banjo and Steve would follow suit. (Endgame)

GOOD MOOOOOOOORNING Yea Forums! Just wanted to remind you that we’re another day closer to Steve (yes, THE Steve from Minecraft) getting confirmed in Smash Ultimate! Make sure to save your tears for the upcoming Fighter Pass when Steve walks into the spotlight!
>H-HAH! VIRGINBEN SAID THE TOPDOWN WASN’T LINK’S AWAKENING! HE WAS FINALLY WRONG! STEVE ISN’T IN SMASH!!!!!
“No!”
Yikes! That’s a large assumption. How can one “questionable” prediction instantly invalidate a history of success? Unlike your “Grinch leak” Banjocucks, Steve has a lot more distribution among other leakers. Ever heard of Hitagi, 7chan, and 5channel? And while you’re busy obsessing over Vergeben, care to explain how the topdown remake Vergeben predicted was exactly the title he said wouldn’t be featured? Seems a bit suspicious if you ask me, but feel free to continue your denial. Your tears of disappointment will be all the more sweeter!
>b-but Banjo has a good history with Nintendo! He’s gotta be in!
“No!”
Sorry Banjo fags, but the Microsoft rep is taken by yours truly! Why would Nintendo choose a dead character over the marketing potential of the highest grossing game of the 21st century? The DLC characters have also been confirmed to be “surprising” according to the developers, so I’m afraid your years of crying for Banjo are going to be subverted once again with the reveal of our favorite underdog! But feel free to continue your denial. Your tears of disappointment will be all the more sweeter!

That leak has already been confirmed as fake by PushDustIn, but feel free to continue your denial. Your tears of disappointment will be all the more sweeter!

Gonna take you to flavortown
Why are Banjofags so delusional
Goku is already in
Sakurai's mom lmao
Yeah, as hard as it would be to work with Steve’s typical stiff movement, I feel it would be better to embrace it than reduce it in an attempt to make him fit in more. Just look at this banner art mock-up for example. His limbs and face look super off since they were made to be more rotund and flexible. They also don’t mesh well with the ground block he’s sitting on, which would be a notable factor when such blocks would likely be a major part of his moveset as a fighter.
FUCK Agumon.
Check this 7
Ahem
youtu.be
You're all retards
He's in
Yeah, this is more how I’d imagine he would work in Smash if he got in. The only animations I don’t like much out of this bunch are the ones for walking/dashing, but the rest work well.
DEBIRU
i hope steve so i can enjoy the shitstorm
>hitagi, 7chan and 5channel were all disproven
Wow, no one can get a seven here, might as well go for him
It’s a shitpost nigga
Giegue
alright I'm back, I was in a thread yesterday because ya boy took one for the team and went into PapaGenos' server. The whole "Granu fabricated the whole thing" theory was proven false. Current talking point is one of the guys may or may not be terminally ill and now everyone is banding together to wish him luck and hopes he can see the DLC through to its completion since ill bro would like to see the DLC before he passes. The leak chat has been silent for the past 8 minutes as of the time of me typing this
But TSA is fun
NOOOOOOOOOOO
If I see any more fucking anime I will lose my shit
Duckmeat fabricated it
Someone fabricated it, better fess up
S-STEVEBROS WE CAN'T LET ANIME WIN! VOTE FOR STEVE
Rolling for the champ
PUT CUTE RYUKO IN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Fuck it, Jigen will be the last character
Or it’s just a fuck up in Google’s algorithm
She's in
Donal Trumpet IS IN.
I'm Devilman
Rolling one out for Mineycrafta Stevens
Banjo
Travis no doubt. Or at least the third one if not the second.
The bear that is going to destroy that darn blockhead with his red bird
he's IN
Sakurai literally laughed at Suda over it. I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo is stepping in.
Welcome to smash
Steve vs Banjo
Erdrick vs Sora
Two of these will be revealed at E3, can’t fucking wait
Steve and Erdrick
yeah there's no guarantee there was no fabrication, but it wasn't Granu at least. Whether or not it was DuckMeat is to be seen. Also they're going off and calling Google Theory "Brad Theory" now, on account of the order they believe the characters will be revealed. (B)anjo (R)yu (A)rtorias (D)oomslayer
Banjo can't stop getting those 7s
oof, hes in next smash, too late Aussie, we got 3 anime characters and Banjo
It’s fake as fuck and the “brad theory” sounds retarded
A is clearly for Agumon.
Here's your DLC bro
Excellent choice
brad theory is definitely retarded, but it seems to have stuck. I don't want the leak to be fake for obvious reasons but it's pretty far fetched from an objective point of view
Just buy KLK IF, user.
Ben 10 would unironically be a fun-as-fuck character to play as in Smash
The may 17th news were leaked already: minecraft earth, minecon earth 19 and the next big update.
Im not saying steve wont be in, but if you think Sakurai would reveal ANYTHING smash related this close to E3, you are RETARDED.
People are setting themselves up for inevitable disappointment
I mean, if sakurai want to count visual novels as a videogame genres, then Lancer would be a game character technically
>Osaka
IT WAS CHIYO-CHAN'S TURN
>be me, Banjobro
>literal definition of setting oneself up for definition
what's one more leak on the pile bro
I don’t believe it, but if you want to then that’s fine
I don't believe it per se, I just want it to happen :(
>Wrestling grabs/throws
>Smashes have him pulling out the Rose Nasty or Peony
>Specials are chips from TSA
>Battery meter you recharge via taunting
Only question is what chips would he use? I think the teleporting one is obvious but I can't think of any besides that
>Taunting
I like that idea but it wouldn't work because of online banning taunts
If he takes that mask off, will he die?
Kirby can taunt when he functionally needs it
Technically yes.
