Games were cool
People want him
He shouldn't be. He's an irrelevant relic whose only two notable games have aged very poorly. The only reason people want him is because their autistic OCD tells them the roster won't be "complete" without him. When was the last time you actually saw someone talk about Banjo outside the context of smash
SHOULD?? Are you retarded?
Anons want him in. We've been wanting him in since 20 years ago. What is this rulefagging you speak of? Maybe don't respond to blatant shitposting next time.
Everyone has that certain character they want. Rulefagging aside.
His good games were on the N64, plus there are barely any N64 era characters other than Villager, but his N64 game never came to the west.
He shouldn't be. He's an irrelevant relic whose few notable games have aged very poorly. The only reason people want him is because their autistic OCD tells them the roster won't be "complete" without him. When was the last time you actually saw someone talk about G&W ever?
/thread
Good. The N64 was terrible. That entire generation was. It was an awful purgatory between good 2d games and good 3d games where devs were just throwing shit to the wall seeing what stuck during the transition to 3d.
Ask for Waluigi, Tingle or Paper Mario then
That's true as well, but unlike Banjo, G&W didn't have an autistic fanbase clamoring for him to be added. I have no idea why Nintendo went with G&W when there were other way better characters they cod have chosen
>first Nintendo videogame character
>first Nintendo handheld
>first Nintendo videogame
>irrelevant
LOL RETARDED FURFAG
YAH WAH HOO!
Were still waiting for those characters too. Do you just have a hate boner for Banjo in general or are you just pissy because of all the roster threads?
Game and Watch Gallery says hi
Japan doesn't give a shit about him and he wouldn't sell well. He isn't nearly as popular as the vocal minority of autists make him out to be.
Nobody says Game and Watch makes the roster complete, and nobody asked for game and watch, kindly fuck off
He is based
He led the N64
He started the Collectathon genre
Everybody loves him
He is the only iconic character who hasn't been added in smash yet
Basically a beta for the modern 3d mario games like Sunshine, Galaxy, and Odyssey. SM64 aged very badly and the controls alone make it very difficult to enjoy today
Nintendo didn't brainlet, it was Sakurai's autism, as a 'joke' character
G&W wasn't a joke character.
>based
>led the n64
>iconic
>started a genre
All the 'fan polls' that put him at the top literally consist of under 300,000 people, meanwhile the game has sold over 13 million copies, they're definitely a vocal minority
>SM64 aged very badly
git gud shrub
In terms of simply deserving it, the only 3rd parties should be these

Microsoft/Nintendo partnership has people believing they'll get a rep.
If Microsoft got a rep the top contenders would be Banjo, Steve, and Master Chief.
Banjo is obvious because he was a former nintendo character
Steve is part of the most popular game ever
and Master Chief is Microsoft's mascot. his inclusion is the most unlikely as of now but with rumors of MCC and even making it to switch anything could be possible.
The only thing that aged poorly about Mario 64 is the camera. The game holds up very well. It's aged like wine.
The controls are a fuckawful clunky nightmare
>Puyo
>Kosmos
>DoA
>Atelier
I want him for the music, I don’t actually plan on playing this crap.
Explain to me why every Rosterfag thread shouldn't be removed
Nice spreadsheet, retard.
They're in. And you can't stop it.
>he doesn't understand the controls to fucking Mario
That sounds like a personal problem
Banjo fag here.
He has absolutely no reason to be, but Phil Spencer confirming twice he's fine with him being in, and me growing up with the first two games on N64, and the first one being my favorite game ever, is why I'm hopeful it could happen.
King K Rool hasn't been in a DK game for years and for awhile it felt like Nintendo abandoned the Kremlings, seeing how crazy excited people got to see him in Smash and the deals they had to make with Rare on certain songs gives Banjo a lot of clout that he's really not an impossibility, aside from being owned by a first party company. Nevermind said company has also been very buddy buddy with Nintendo lately.
I'm waiting for the confirmation or deconfirmation, because I'm sick of the rosterfaggotry. I was perfectly fine letting Banjo be dead ever since 2008's Nuts & Bolts. Rare doesn't want to bother with their old IP anyway.
>forgetting Based Invaders
unforgivable
- Atelier is so popular it gets 2-3 new games every year & has for the last 15 years, It's Tecmo's cash-cow franchise
- KOS-MOS is the face of Xeno & Monolith went on record saying she's their favorite character
- Dead or Alive is pretty obvious, it is the single franchise that defines Tecmo, it's their best selling series & has been the only thing keeping Ryu relevant since Ninja Gaiden 2004
- Puyo Puyo is the 2nd highest selling Sega franchise behind Sonic, by default it deserves a rep
>He has absolutely no reason to be
Banjo-Kazooie was one of the most popular and acclaimed Nintendo games of that era.
> No Bomberman
Fuck off
Not to mention Villager doesn't even use their original designs. At least the Wild World designs are still pretty good.
>- KOS-MOS is the face of Xeno
okay but nobody knows what the fuck xenosaga is besides neckbeards
He's in and there is nothing you can do about it anymore

Did you bother reading the rest of my post you stupid retard
>- Puyo Puyo is the 2nd highest selling Sega franchise behind Sonic, by default it deserves a rep
Remember when Smash Bros was a Nintendo fighter?
Nintendo Of America themselves didn't even list Banjo as a top 285 Nintendo game, despite the fact that every other Rare game on the N64 made the list
Kremlings were enemies in Smash Run
Explain to me why this retarded Italian plumber deserves to be in Smash.
Don’t divert to calling me a sonicfag, sonic fucking sucks too. Explain why he should be in.
>He thinks you are only allowed to want a character if they fit your arbitrary sales quota

> Still thinking that everyone that wants a character is the same exact person
Fuck off tourist, Xenoblade needs another rep. Whether you like it or not, the first character people think about when they hear Xeno is KOS-MOS. Like Morrigan Aensland she became bigger than her franchise & the company had to include her in every crossover game
>No Reimu
Absolutely gay
This, people don't take into account that not everyone bothers to answer a poll.

I hate that I have to agree with a fucking wojak but you sir have just summed up the thread quite nicely.
T. Seething Banjocuck, even Steve will get in before your literal who bear
He's been wanted since 64 for one, but if you want other reasons
>Great representation of the N64 era of consoles
>Symbolizes Nintendo and Microsoft's efforts to play nice
>Following akin to K. Rool and even Ridley, with Geno straggling behind
>Unique moveset based off Kazooie, Tooie, and Nuts and Bolts could add serious variety to the character making them play unique
>Fun design and a pleasing character to look at
>Great music, great options for stage choices
>Partnership with Nintendo/MS/Rare could lead to other MS/Rare games being brought to Switch, with Rare Replay already rumored to be on the way
>First 2 games are regarded as masterpieces and classics
>third game is consider an underrated gem and has a small cult following
"irrelevant" and "dead" doesn't exist with this character, the character is kept alive through the fans who refuse to let him die. There's dead franchises and then theirs Banjo, a franchise that should be dead and buried all things considered, but it still lives on through the fans, videos, rom hacks, and other fan projects. Banjo is far from dead, Microsoft even said they want to bring Banjo back, and they want to do it at the right time. This was back in 2015 when Battletoads was rumored to be getting a new entry (Which we now know it is) and we're at a similar situation with Banjo's patent being renewed (By Nintendo oddly enough) and rumors of Banjo returning in some way shape or form. Also nostalgic remakes/remasters are all the rave now with Crash and Spyro remade and coming back with new games, so it seems likely Microsoft might want to cash in with Banjo.
Idk, that's my reasoning, he's my most wanted character and has been since I played the games. I think he deserves in because of his importance to Nintendo's fans.
Shit i dunno. Maybe because people like the character and want him in Smash? This goes for every character request. You retards have ruined Smash character discussion by making characters Banjo, Erdrick, or any other popular choice here viewed as the worst thing ever. I just want people to be happy no matter who gets in.
Why is everyone so obsessed with coming up with non existent boogeyman for every popular game? It's autistic as fuck, are people on Yea Forums that pathetic that they cannot fathom someone having a different opinion then them
>Immense moveset potential, dozens of moves from the games would fit snugly in Smash
>Icon from the days of the Nintendo 64, it's difficult to talk about the library of the N64 without mentioning Banjo-Kazooie and its sequel
>Highly requested by fans, name comes up every time there's a new Smash
I can't wait you the reveal trailer to use this exact song
>what are sample sizes
> Irrelevant character
> Good
Fuck off. KOS-MOS, Crono, Hayabusa & Kasumi all don't deserve to be on there because their franchises are fucking irrelevant. All of the others are relevant & constantly shoved down everyone's throat 24/7
Can I get that source on the Banjo-Kazooie patent?
>literally no mention of Banjo

Fuck off Erdrickfag. Banjo lives rent free in your tiny fake fan brains.

Thanks for setting me free, user!
As a reward for saving me from this prison, I'll let you choose the remaining characters for the Fighter Pass.
However, my power is limited, you have to choose:
-One Nintendo newcomer
-One third-party newcomer
-One echo newcomer (can be first or third-party)
-The last character is a completely free choice (as long as it's from a video-game, silly user)!
Give it a thought and tell me your wish, user!

Nintendo already stated that there will be no more first-party characters right? I bet Sakurai does not even want to work on new Smash games anymore. It is over for us, bros.
they never said this. stop spreading false propaganda.
>devs were just throwing shit to the wall seeing what stuck during the transition to 3d
This is actually what made that generation so good. Most of the games have visually aged about as well as warm milk but there was definitely a lot of creative ideas thrown out there. No idea was too bizarre so we got a lot of unique titles. Not all of them wound up being good and the few that were weren't really marketable beyond the first iteration but it certainly made things much more interesting. N64/PS1 generation was the generation of diamonds in the rough and cult classics. There's a good reason why people are nostalgic for it.
Objectively these are the ideal 3rd parties, taking into account individual relevance of the franchises & characters themselves

oh god, this is even worse than the other user above
More like Gay and Watch
You shouldn't expect your most wanted's you fucking idiot, all we are getting is shill garbage from AAA Japanese companies. All of these fit the very definition of a shill pick
Because it's HIS TURN

New to smash bros.
How are you fucks so god damn retarded.
There are no more veterans to bring back. Any character that is added is new to the series.
God damn kill yourself.
Nobody expects a FE character because it's such an obvious pick, Veronica from their 600 Million dollar Gacha game is probably the most likely newcomer at this point since she's literally called "Brave"
>new to the series
>unexpected picks
What did you expect him to say?
>"Our characters will be predictable picks that everyone expected."
He needs to sell the fighter pass, obviously. This statement could mean absolutely nothing.
Of course we can take that statement at face value to a degree, but to say that this statement invalidates every first party pick is just inherently wrong.
Hades
Banjo and Kazooie
Metal Mario
Bloodborne Hunter
You tried.
I'll say this much: those polls were also very consistent and the toppers like K. Rool and Ridley made it in. They may not be 100% accurate but they definitely have a rough reflection of the fandom. Also not saying he's in since M$ would probably shill Minecraft instead, but even in Japan Banjo is often in the top 20 or even 10 lately. Just food for thought.
>comparing Mr. Game & Watch to Banjo
The absolute state of Banjofags
>Same reasoning given during the Grinch leak
This won't end well
Game and Watch is literally Nintendo's first character ever created.
Everything you said here is wrong.
Incredible.
Banjofags will be btfo’d for the final time soon

You’re worse than Banjofags.
This is the most retarded post I’ve ever seen on this site and I’ve seen people argue that eating raw meat is good for you and that farting is hot.
>Banjo? *sips* Now THAT'S a platforming character

What did he mean by this?
Why the fuck would there be a fighters pass for fucking first party reps? Why on god's earth would Sakurai and Nintendo just decide that to hype up fans of the series for months, just to get first party reps? That makes no sense.
FFS if they're all to be exactly like Joker, meaning 3rd party, then the chances of there being yet a-fucking-nother FE rep is very little.
This is the best opinion in the thread.
Grant Kirkhope says Banjo isn’t likely
Grant Kirkhope wouldn't know if Banjo was in or not, just like the guy who made K. Rool didn't know K. Rool was in. Nice try, though.
There's at least a dozen characters in the roster that don't deserve it. What's one more?
>Why the fuck would there be a fighters pass for fucking first party reps? Why on god's earth would Sakurai and Nintendo just decide that to hype up fans of the series for months, just to get first party reps? That makes no sense.
Not either of them, but I legitimately have no idea what your point is here.
Corrin was a DLC character along with Bayonetta. “Deserving” isn’t a factor
So Steve isn't it. Banjo isn't in. MC isn't in. There's literally only one Microsoft rep that's likely now because of an upcoming game.
gb2
Or maybe no Microsoft rep.
This guy should
and grant knows nothing about the smash DLC or whether or not banjo is in
Oh my god guys imagine how emotional it's going to be when banjo gets in I can just imagine in his reveal trailer Mario running up to him and giving him a great big hug and they talk about how long its been this is too much for me
>miku
you literally deserve to be put on a cross you fucking degenerate scumfuck
That’s like saying the dude who made the first render for Leon Kennedy said “I don’t think it’s likely” so he’s not in.
I mean Nintendo is basically scraping at the bottom of the barrel at this point. There aren't exactly many more japanese 3rd party reps that would count as "mindblowing".
I mean aside from Saber or Reimu.
Imagine thinking banjo has a chance
>Or maybe no Microsoft rep.
Imagine actually thinking this at this point
Easy. I want him in. I hope he gets in.
Simple as that.
Think Geno but an actual protagonist.
It also sold better
He isn't entitled to a spot btw
I put his chances at 5%, I was just telling you how stupid you’re being as a courtesy
>no Microsoft rep
That's exactly what we're getting.
He wouldn't know but he's being reasonable to himself. Unlike the majority of this thread.
B-BUT user YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO JUST WANT SOMETHING ANYMORE
YOU HAVE TO WANT CHARACTERS THAT YOU THINK ARE 100% GETTING IN LIKE LE FUNNY BLOCK MAN OR ANY CHARACTER YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT FOR THE BTFO CULTURE!
>I put his chances at 5%
Correction: 0.00001%
K
Le funny block man is in
>aged poorly
so you haven’t played them? gotcha.
the original game & watch lcd games sold a total of 43.4 million units. it's pretty safe to say that the banjo franchise isn't sniffing that number.
the first three game & watch gallery games were all million-sellers on a platform that actually had tons of other games to compete with (unlike the n64).
>Erdrick
oh, i almost forgot: we also didn't have to pay extra for mr. game & watch.
Tick tock.
>There aren't exactly many more japanese 3rd party reps that would count as "mindblowing".
When are the contents of the direct gonna be leaked
No, you explain to me why should anyone care about Smash.
Announced sage on all fields. Fuck Smash and fuck Nintendo.
Why are characters like Ice Climbers okay, but not Banjo?
Shut the fuck up Graizen.
He wouldn't know about it as much as the composer from DKC and character designer of K. Rool. Or best of chances, only slightly know about rumors or has confirmed about it and even then, he wouldn't be able to tell due to some sort of NDA. It's somewhat sketchy to tell.
Things might have changed. Back then, those guys were to be kept in surprise from those who previously worked with them but then you have Joker and then that one footage of Sakurai visiting Atlus. I dunno. Is the company visiting thing going to be a thing now?
No.
