>We're less than a week away from E3 now where we're almost assuredly going to see the next DLC character revealed that will be coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in hopefully the very near future.
>Yesterday, we reported that a reliable leaker was teasing the inclusion of a certain Nintendo 64-era platformer mascot in Smash Ultimate, but now another prominent leaker in Vergeben has stepped forward to speak much more openly about what they believe is coming to the already massive title.
>Vergeben was recently asked on GameFAQs about his thoughts about the Banjo Kazooie leaks floating around the internet right now to which he responded that their "most proven and main source" of information told them that they are 99 percent confident that Banjo is part of the Fighters Pass DLC.
>The leaker went on to say that "Banjo and Kazooie is all but out right able to be confirmed as a DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on my end. A 99 percent confirmation is close enough. There is that 1 percent chance it isn't. But it is looking like Shinobi602 wasn't teasing people for no reason since I am able to say on my end that it seems to be the case that Banjo fans will surely be in for a smashing good time."
>This Shinobi602 is another leaker who has teased details of games like God of War, Call of Duty WW2 and Ridley's inclusion in Smash before they were officially announced.
This is it, bros. We're in the endgame now. Even Vergeben is throwing his hat in the ring. I think we can safely say Banjo is happening.
The Grinch leak burned me bad. I don't want to get my hopes up again, but I'm cautiously optimistic for /ourbear/
Michael Wilson
Does Nintendo risk revealing Steve in a room filled with hardcore gamers booing at them? It is E3 after all. I imagine the next character is a nostslgia pick since zoomers just got Joker 2 months ago. It's only logical.
Oh boy. Another Grinch 2.0 Banjo thread right after the last one that will get over 400 reply. Is this seriously going to be a constant thing till E3...
>grinch 2.0 >when nearly every insider is hinting it's real instead of shooting it down
Joseph Watson
It must suck being boring as fuck. You already got your weeb character with Joker. Now it's time for something different..Something swordless.
Noah Bell
shut up, pedo go fuck a magic 500 year old witch girl
just not gruntilda
Dominic Roberts
>Another Grinch 2.0 Vergeben was decidedly anti-Grinch, because he knew about Kencineroar.
Now that he's on our side, we're invincible.
Owen Reed
By having the Microsoft conference reveal a new game or remake two days before Nintendo's E3 Direct, they're really just not keen on his inclusion being even remotely surprising, are they?
Bentley James
You don't. From what i've seen, Crono has less to offer in terms of moveset.
Isn't it true that the leakers are going all-in on Erdrick as well? Does that mean that both are in?
Also, what happened to all the leakers who were insistent that Steve was in?
Andrew Rogers
Because the surprise is that he isn't in and you'll gonna cry like little bitches.
Jaxson Brooks
I'm trying to contain my hype just in case everything turns out to be a ruse, but I can't. I've wanted Banjo-Kazooie in smash for the longest time now and the fact that it might actually be happening... puts me in a good mood.
Christian Evans
it's her time bros
Jaxson Long
>microsoft conference reveals new Banjo game AND his reveal trailer for Smash >Nintedo direct reveals Doom Slayer >yfw
Jack Thomas
Barely any prominent leakers said Steve was in
Luis Murphy
Honestly Banjo, Erdrick and the Doom marine would be a good lineup for me. I have no idea what I want the last character to be in that case, so I hope somebody else gets a good one.
Ian Cruz
there were two one fucked off and vergeben changed his mind again
Caleb Collins
I think Bamco deserves a second rep since they made the game.
Austin Wilson
Is Doom Slayer what they're going to call him? Is that from something? I just can't seriously imagine Xander stammering out "DOOM...guy...!"
Aaron Price
We must patiently wait my good erdrickfriend. We're not out of the woods just yet.
>even Vergeben Hey whatever happened to that Square Enix rep that was supposed to be the first DLC character? Or that Minecraft content? Oh and lets not forget a season 2 for MvCI, Zoro from One Piece being in SoulCalibur VI, a bunch of characters I don't fucking remember being FREE DLC for SFV, a top down Zelda game that is 100% NOT Links Awakening. Dude has a flawless track record.
Yes. Insiders have been all-in on Erdrick for quite a while now, but now they're starting to go in on Banjo too. The leakers who were all in on Steve was, like, one unreliable guy who was piggypacking off Vergeben. Vergeben never said Steve though, just MC content, which if Banjo is in, means probably a mii costume.
Blake Richardson
Wouldn't it be cool if Gex got into Smash? Haha, imagine if that actually happened.
This entire post could have been summed up in like 3 lines, why is it so shittily stretched out like a high schooler trying to reach word count? Obviously its made for some horrific "gaming journalism" website but holy fuck is that writing cringy, bad, and not to the point in any way.
Sebastian Williams
Oh yeah they've got some good shit Souls, Tales, Digimon, Tekken, Klonoa that's not even all of it either
Lucas Cook
true
Sebastian Cox
He's referenced as Doom Slayer in the modern games
Nolan Gomez
shinobi and vergeben haven't changed my feelings about banjo getting in. I always knew
Austin Gonzalez
Doom Slayer is what he's called in the new games (though the Doomguy name is still used for some collectibles and his old outfit in Quake Champions) My guess is Doom Slayer would be default and the inevitable classic alt would be called Doomguy maybe
Parker Stewart
It's from eventhubs which isn't exactly known as a journalism website.
Cooper Morales
for some reason they don't appear to want more characters in smash
Brayden Wood
People asking for Doom or Halo rep are by far the worst people here.
>Sabi, another leak is backing Verge now saying his source is right and says they can get all the info of the direct the day before
Benjamin Morgan
Vergeben stated his sources were confident in the Square Enix character but he's flat out said he's 99% sure Banjo is in. He could slip away from the SE comment but his entire reputation is on the line for the Banjo inclusion. I'm thinking he's in.
Jaxon Thompson
I honestly would like Metal Mario as a free echo or something, though I'm doubtful it'd happen because nobody has more than one echo.
Adrian Cooper
Wait... what if BOTH of them were Brave?
Jaxon Cooper
Dr. Mario isn't an echo
Landon Fisher
Could a kind lad tell me what day and time is the Nintendo direct?
Kevin Cox
You guys are setting yourself for disapointement.

He's now 100% saying Erdrick by the way. Super adamant about that one.
Jaxon Gutierrez
Oh. Well he logically should be so that's really strange but that actually does leave Mario open for having an echo without breaking the rule so maybe that's exactly why they did it. It also means that Dr. Mario could have an echo so theoretically we could have TWO more Marios.
Brandon Hill
I do but DQ is a pretty historically important game so I'm cool with Erdrickchads
Ryce isn't the most reliable guy but that's another one for the list
Jacob Foster
>Erdrick and Crono are both perfectly valid inclusions. Fucking this.
In a perfect world we'd have both of them instead of this many fucking Fire Emblem fuckstains.
Bentley Mitchell
I hate leakers for ruining surprises just for attention
Jace Carter
All he's said is that Tansut says Erdrick has a female alt and he believes Tansut is reliable. Other than that, he knows nothing about Erdrick other than that he's 100% in. Not 99% in either. He can't backtrack on this one like he potentially could by saying "99%" for Banjo. He's going all in with this one with no ambiguity.
>2019 is the 20th anniversary for the Smash Bros. franchise >Ultimate is most likely the final game with Sakurai at the helm >After all this time, Banjo and Kazooie are the one fighter that he’s wanted but never got, his final White Whale
Would finally getting BK in be pure kino?
Ian Reyes
The whole steve thing started because of a leak though
Isaac Sanders
>Ultimate is most likely the final game with Sakurai at the helm People said this about every game, Sakurai cannot quit. Smash is like crack to him.
It's almost as if different people say different things.
Samuel Thompson
Shit would SO cash
Christopher Morales
I learned my lesson with the Grinch Leak.
Which is why I'm trusting a nigh unanimous decree from insiders this time, they're annoying bottom feeders that ruin Smash Hype Trains, but they're also unfortunately right.
the top is mostly neutrals.Characters that aren't fully on one side >Leonposters are anti-leakfag >Metal Marioposters are pretty similar >Fire Mario might as well go there too >Hornetposters aren't really on a side
Jeremiah Cox
Stevies are freaking out because the only guy who ever said Steve would be in the game has turned on them and now they have nothing. They're getting all the shitposting in because once the Banjo reveal hits, it's over.
Vergeben is a disingenuous parasite who deserves to be held down and reduced to a scarlet paste. His name shouldn't be coming up in 2019.
Elijah King
BASED MUMBO
William Edwards
this, honestly grinch was shunned by "insiders", but was more fan-favoured however the insiders would up being right in the end, so if the insiders are damn near unanimous on a topic, they're probably right
Jaxson Sanchez
You sure about that?
Adam Morales
fuck off
Jacob Wilson
You mean the leaks trustworthy leakers themselves are parroting.
Liam Hall
Verge has already said "his" sources have also told him about Banjo being 99% confirmed aside from Sabi.

Yeah but the fact another prominent leaker is backing Verge
Lincoln Stewart
Incineroar is a manlet though.
Matthew Morris
Speaking of DQ, /dqg/ over on /vg/ has some very useful resources in the OP for getting into the series. If Loto does or doesn't get in, it's still worthwhile to check out the series. Here's a link to the roms pastebin they have on /dqg/ pastebin.com/pM7hErG3
He'd be a pretty good echo or alt color for Erdrick.
Hunter Howard
I've learned never to trust Nintendo related leaks. I come into these threads for fun and post bad Gex leaks instead of earnestly believing anything written.
Banjo's reveal will never be as extravagant as it deserved to be thanks to those faggots. By the time he's revealed the idea of fucking banjo being in smash will have already become normal unlike Krool's reveal
Josiah Williams
handy!
Nicholas Russell
>actual Japanese wrestler height >manlet
he's even taller than Charizard
Juan Sullivan
Very valuable, thank you.
Eli Williams
Rhythmfag here, hoping for you Banjofags to get your non-echo out of the Grinch's hands.
I just want to see the world burn and have Edelgard or Byleth be the only DLC fighter announced this E3.
Juan Moore
When will people realize no one gives a shit about Banjo anymore. He’s irrelevant and the only people that actually care about him now are people who played his games as kid. Nintendo would have to be retarded to include an irrelevant character like Banjo over Steve, a character who has much more relevance. I don’t even like Steve but I would rather have him rep Microsoft over stupid banjo. People need to just move on
Evan Taylor
Good luck Banjobros, yours would be an extremely hype reveal at E3 that I'm looking forward to
Here's your dlc bro >Joker >Banjo & Kazooie >Erdrick >Doomguy/slayer >Reimu nah I'm fucking with you, Scorpion or Crash
Brody Ramirez
>K. Roolfags are now cool with Banjo Wow, just like I predicted
Tyler Reyes
Granted Crono does use a katana so the case could be made that he'd be able to have a pretty unique fighting style distinct from other sword users but that's not going to satisfy the sword haters so I'd be fine with the echo/alt.
Andrew Campbell
>The next DLC character has already been leaked, it's just been buried by rosterfag fanboy and e-celeb leakfag garbage.
I want Crash though. I have never even played a Crash game but having a mascot for each of the current big 3 companies in Smash is too good to pass up.
Carson Barnes
Kroolfags are really the biggest frauds of them all huh
Probably, just like the Piranha Plant prediction. We'll find it after it's revealed and we'll laugh.
Elijah Cooper
Oh yeah, may as well say this. 1 and 2 haven't aged the best. I recall one person saying "1 was a horrible grindfest that gave me flashbacks to FF2" Best starting places are any game from III to VI The spin-offs are also a good place to start. Out of all of them, the ones I enjoyed the most were Builders (and Builders 2 is so much better than the first one and SQUARE ENIX ISN'T FUCKING ADVERTISING ITS WESTERN RELEASE WHICH IS ONE MONTH AWAY), and I also enjoyed Rocket Slime and DQM Joker. Builders is entirely console exclusive and can't be emulated as of yet.
Carson Price
WHY WOULD STEVE BE IN SMASH?! NO, IM FUCKING SERIOUSLY ASKING?! HOW COULD A CHARACTER LIKE STEVE POSSIBLY MAKE IT INTO SMASH?! IT MAKES NO SENSE!
I've stayed quiet about it long enough! I demand answers! How could you possibly think this blocky FUCK has ANY bearing in a diverse cast of characters that make up the Smash roster? How, dammit, how?! And you better not grasp are straws with your reasoning either! EXPLAIN YOURSELF!
Replace Banjo with K. Rool and look at your retarded unoriginal and repetitive post again. Tell me you feel deja-vu.
Blake Morales
You should definitely play at least one. If you're on PC pirate the trilogy or emulate the originals. If you're on PS4 the trilogy is $20 Also your post JUST loaded in when I posted We just have to wait and see brother.

Camden Nelson
No matter what happens. This has been one heck of a ride
Most of my interest comes from the fact that Erdrick and the guy from DQ1 are often shown using a shield and I really like the prospect of a more defensive character that has a higher emphasis on using their shield, like how Palutena can block attacks that hit her dash attack or back air. Having magic specials and a potential female alt just makes the character more enticing.
I think it's great that the whole Smash Bros. leak saga worked out in such a way that it created two perfect enemies for each other in Banjo and Steve. Nobody was ever saying both of them would be in, it was always one or the other. You could only pick one side in this conflict. It's just the perfect story.
Liam Perry
You put too much trust into people that you've never met.
Kevin Cruz
there is literally zero ACTUAL SOLID PROOF for any of your character picks getting in. it's all "insider info" and he-said-she-said bullshit. none of you have posted a single piece of credible evidence. rumors are not evidence. show me proof, right now. oh wait, you can't! inb4 "lol just google it yourself", burden of proof is on you, nigger
Ian Richardson
>Tuesday comes >Banjo isn't revealed >Instead it was again someone no one saw coming >Not Steve, not Erdrick, not anyone that has been "leaked" >Banjo was just leak bait from Sakurai to keep people from knowing who's really in This would unironically be the best timeline
The tournament is tomorrow, but I'm not really expecting anything. Then again who knows they announced Joker at the VGA's. Maybe they could announce one tomorrow then have the gameplay reveal during E3.
Most likely a post that didn't get a single reply. Then again I think it's safe to say that from Joker's announcement to Tuesday, all 4 fighter names have probably been said in various posts.
Tyler Morgan
yeah, it's banjo
Jaxon Brooks
>I don't think Sakurai is interested, haha. If he asked I’d say yes, but I don't think he wants them! from an interview in april
I want her too, but I just can't see them releasing her as a character that people would have to pay to get. She's perfect "new content in the base game material."
Evan Young
Ok, Banjo is in, but what are the odds of the THIRD fighter being announced as well?
>all the trannies are seething now that the surprise is ruined ahaha, adjust
Jacob Roberts
Well I have good news for you my friend. There's a skill in Dragon Quest that's exactly as you describe. dragon-quest.org/wiki/Blockenspiel

That direct was magical. It had been so long that a Smash 4 port was unlikely, but it wasn't E3 yet. And then the reveal starts with a Splatoon 1 style video.
Austin Harris
There are so many names being thrown around that it is statistically impossible for it to be someone that "nobody saw coming."
Ah, yes, the mainstay protagonists of the Japanese open world games. That is to say, the type open world game not based on movement (akin to western open worlds) but based on mindless collectathon grinding.

>some though it was just some more splatoon stuff >that moment when nearly ever smash fan knew what was coming
Projecting a little there buddy? When has Sakurai ever expressed interest in Banjo?
Adam Reed
K rool won the ballot at least. He had relevancy in that. And of course relevancy matters. Nintendo actually wants to sell the fighter pass to people. Who’s going to want to buy smash DLC when it includes fucking banjo.
Owen Watson
>They want all the DLC out by February 2020 >It's been 6 months and we only have Joker >4 DLC to go in just 8 months
I would say likely. 2nd Pass fighter probably late July while 3rd is shown off for Holiday season.
I'd bet the date for the final DLC pass character will be pushed back too at this rate since Sakurai loves getting everything perfect
I don't give a shit about surprise, I just find rosterfaggotry to be obnoxious, so getting a character that wasn't flooding this board would be nice, mainly because I get to see the meltdown.
Matthew King
Fun little fact. Check the date shinobi posted that banjo tease
the same insiders that bet on kencineroar before it happened are saying banjo (and erdrick) are in why should I not trust them after that? you put something up
It's so desperate to press like this. Nothing I tell you matters. I can say anything. If I knew and I told you, the amount of knowledge you have would not change. It's pure pointlessness, you asked a useless question. That's not something you can say. It's such a disgustingly basic response to immediately whore out your desires to the world. For the purposes of rosterfag discussion, your entire life up to this point has been like a deeply interconnected randomizer that led you to reply to me with that. A monkey on a keyboard, who cares even if you're right? You're just gambling the smell of your own farts on limited information.
Andrew Miller
Use common sense, something leakfags and rosterfags seem to lack. Cloud seems to be proof that SE are a pain in the arse to work with. Why would they go through the trouble of trying to work with them further when there's plenty of other characters that will generate just as much money with less effort on their end? Also all this Ederick shit stemmed from him supposedly being the first fighter, and Joker squashed that.
Joshua Cooper
pretty much, travis and kiryu are two of my most wanteds, my life is eternal hell
this, he even said shit like >I think it would be very interesting. He could pick up a bicycle out of nowhere to whack opponents with, haha. There are so many strong characters in Smash Brothers, I wonder whether Kazuma Kiryu could defeat them!
>After all this time, Banjo and Kazooie are the one fighter that he’s wanted but never got I'll take shit that never happened for 500 Alex.
Parker Jenkins
If Kiryu is in, I'll shit my pants
Dominic Foster
I hope we can get a Mii Swordfighter costume if they're still making those for Nintendo characters. All the DLC costumes except the Fighters Pass bonus are third party.
You're right, It's actually a Disney character :^)

Vergeben backing it makes me feel like it's not going to happen at all
Ian Johnson
People seem to forget E3 2015, where 3 characters were released at once. To be fair, one was revealed beforehand, but the other 2 were revealed that same day. It kinda makes you think, that some people that don't know what theyre talking about Shouldnt make such brash predictions.

Austin Kelly
>Use common sense
Joker, Cloud and the plant makes "use common sense" a retarded argument
Lucas Campbell
Are you programmed to invent riddles?
Oliver Carter
It's not impossible. Joker was announced very early and also probably delayed to be near the P5 announcements. 2nd character will probably be release same-day or within 2 weeks from the announcement. 3rd character will be announced at or the week after EVO. Then you have two left to be announced between Sept-Feb with one of them probably at the 2019 VGA's.
I mean it is a very damn longshot if they decided to do that for Adeleine, but I agree with ya. Either way I'm still excited for the new character they'll announce and any potential extra content they might add to the game.
Josiah Reed
Bad seafood caused me to gamble on a fart and lose once, I just tossed the pants, wiped, and got in the shower. Not bad at all.
Nathaniel Jones
>I have never even played a Crash game play the second one (the best one regarded by many) and maybe CTR, if you're interested.
Use common sense as in don't take leaks and rosterfaggotry as gospel. At least coming to your own conclusions means you're using your brain. That entire post was incredibly straightforward. Are rosterfags too braindead to comprehend basic english now? I was pretty explicit with my reasoning behind my statement of there being no SE rep, and I'm standing by that statement as well.
Saber originated in a porn game, she is never going to be able to shake that.
Blake Murphy
Ultimate DLC coincides similarly with Smash 4's DLC
Mewtwo: April Lucas, Roy, Ryu: June Cloud: December Corrin, Bayonetta : February
Joker: April ???: June Last DLC fighter: February
Basically, we're probably getting two fighters, or at least one and a reveal for the third at E3. And the 4th will be later on this year with the reveal of the final fighter, to be released in February.
Would prefer that design as opposed to his ugly classic design. What's the feather mechanic? Ammo for Kazooie that can run out?
Owen Rivera
Yeah except one problem retard, you're basing "No square rep" off your own designated projections with no information about what's going on behind the scenes business wise
Jeremiah Barnes
they were always on the same side you faggot rareware sticks together
Nicholas Bell
Will you cry?
Daniel Richardson
And the last DLC fighter will probably come with a reveal that more are coming.
Though I have to say, if your schedule is correct, they better make that last choice someone hype as fuck to make up for waiting that long. How could they possibly outdo Banjo, though?
Anthony Howard
How new do you have to believe that Steveposters are genuine.
Jose Ross
>That entire post was incredibly straightforward. Are rosterfags too braindead to comprehend basic english now? I was pretty explicit with my reasoning behind my statement of there being no SE rep, and I'm standing by that statement as well. Every war is the result of a difference of opinion. Maybe the biggest questions can only be answered by the greatest of conflicts.
Porn was never the selling point or focus of the Visual Novel. It's as stupid as saying GTA5, Indigo Prophecy, or any game with a sex scene are porn game.
Leo Flores
Who the heck are all these other characters supposed to be?
Benjamin Wood
Master Chief would be cool, he has more than just guns. Doom guy is retarded.
Connor Robinson
The schedule for the Smash 4 DLC is definitely correct, but I think Joker and Mewtwo releasing in April, along with them saying they'd release all the DLC by February 2020 is no coincidence. It's probably a very similar schedule.
It's better than going off the words of some leakers that have also gotten shit wrong regarding the specific character. At least there's some attempt at piecing together facts to build a case, and considering all this Erdrick dick riding came from a "leak" I don't find the argument for him to be particularly believable or compelling.
Josiah Reed
Master Chief is literally just Wolf. Doom guy would also be just Wolf but the stage and music wouldnt be uninspired garbage
Cooper Lewis
I honestly don't mind which character makes it into Smash as long as it isn't Steve
Noah Adams
Hey! Who are you calling "you people"?

>falsely leaking just because the date happens to be 6/4, which is the same as Nintendo 64 >willing to risk admin status and even privileges on a site to just make a funny fake leak
Logan Davis
We don't know that. I think we're getting 2, but it's also not correct to bet on getting 2 characters. It's either we're getting
a) Two characters releasing b) One character releasing and a reveal for the third fighter or c) One character releasing and the third fighter nowhere to be seen
I hope it's the first of the three options, but you never know. Hell, the second DLC fighter might be just be revealed and not even released same day. But I think it's unlikely.
What?! Jill Stingray from Valhalla, recently released on Nintendo Switch, will be in Smash? That is awesome!
Nolan Turner
Are you dumb, because Master Chief would be nothing like Wolf.
Juan Phillips
I'm saying i believe him. What are you two on about?

How come nobody seems to think a Harvest Moon Rep is possible? It's a decades long running, popular series that spawned multiple offshoot games but everyone tries to pretend it doesn't exist in favor of this dime a dozen collectathon platformer mascot.
You seem to be making a lot of posts in this thread just dumping a number of increasingly absurd reps but I'll respond to this one and point out that Harvest Moon is a series that is in licensing hell so there is absolutely no way it could get anything in Smash.
Owen Ramirez
I fucking love Banjo and I can't wait for this to all be over.
But "default playable character of franchise is playable in Smash" just doesn't inspire much excitement in me. Grunty being the fighter would be my wildest dream come true, but we'll never get a twist like that because muh protagonists.
Jaxson Scott
>Montage of Banjo collecting jiggies >Brings the last one to a jigsaw panel, wiping the sweat off his brow after completing the picture frame >Pans to reveal it's Final Destination >Hops in with Kazooie
It's not really a series that lends itself super well to a fighting game for obvious reasons. Also the AC characters kinda fills that niche in terms of playstyle.
Aaron Lopez
Because Harvest Moon is LITERALLY a husk of what it used to be. It's Story of Seasons now.
Austin Williams
Banjo feels 10 times more impossible than K. Rool used to be, so if he ends up getting in it'll still feel special to me.

You know what, I don't give a damn about Banjo, but I don't hate him either.
After reading this post, I hope you get your character. I'm good with the current roster, anything would be a bonus really (and Joker was a REALLY good one since I love SMT and Persona, just wish he had a fucking Flynn alt baka) , so yeah, good luck to you all.
That being said, Halo or Doom would still be retarded and I really hope it never happens.
Brayden Jenkins
What Dragon Quest game did you play that made you turn around your opinion on it? It's rare to see someone on Yea Forums change their mind.
Brayden Thomas
>none of these hyped characters get announced >mfw they announce something out of left field that no one could predict again >or they don't announce anything at all
Funny considering how "Brave" can refer to literally anything, or it could mean nothing at all.
Brayden Roberts
They wouldn't do that, because the moment you see Banjo Kazooie after the Smash swish, you know it's Banjo, they have to build up to the splash screen as the first full sight of the character. Watch K Rool's reveal for example
Josiah Mitchell

They feel about the same to be honest. Same origin company, same time without an appearance, same arguments used against them.

Logan Davis
I pre-order every amiibo as soon as it goes online. Also, scalpers are a thing of the past, nobody does that anymore
Samuel Cooper
This is what is actually going to happen, you guys are going to be stupidly disappointed while normal people are hype as fuck as it always is.

I thought scalpers chilled by now? Have any of the new Amiibo been scalped hard? I just bought Ken and it wasn't a big deal.
Joshua Jackson

Literally looks, sounds and works like a real gun. Rating boards don't give a shit about the lore.
Carter Moore
Ah, I remember all the fags who said "Joker will be revealed April 24th, because he'll have a Jane alt" And when that didnt happen, everyone went silent. What happened, faggots? Did you all run away knowing I was right and you weren't? That Nintendo would never hand a Smash announcement to any other company? Faggots.
Kayden Lopez
But Banjo is western owned. and by Microsoft. He'll literally be the first one of his kind in Smash if this is true. the Smash team has never collaborated on such a level with western devs.
Isaac Ramirez
PLEASE STOP BANJO YOU'RE DRUNK
Joseph Morgan
After K. Rool was revealed, I always thought that Banjo's reveal would be a continuation of K. Rool's trailer, with Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong walking away after beating K. Rool and it would somehow connect to Banjo.
Oliver Sanchez
No, that user doesn't know what he's talking about

Oh, in that case can I ask why people are suddenly talking about YIIK again? It released quite some time ago at this point so I had forgotten it even existed, but all of a sudden I'm seeing a bunch of posts bringing it up to the extent that I had actually just pirated a copy so I could try it out for myself (I know people apparently hated it but I'd been meaning to play it so I can experience it firsthand and seeing it brought up was a good reminder for me to do so) right before I saw your post. Did the developer have a recent freakout or something that put the game in people's minds again, or maybe it got a new patch or something? Or is it all just a coincidence?
>Olimar Voice grunts in his game to replicate speech, silent in Smash
>Isabelle Voice grunts in her game to replicate speech, silent in Smash
>Bowser Voice grunts in his games to replicate speech, lizard noises in Smash.
>DK Cartoon noises in games, gorilla noises in Smash.
So what I'm asking is, are you excited for BK realistic bird and bear noises instead of their iconic grunts? Because assuming this would happen (it won't) that's what you'd be getting you know.

>muh datamining Wow, very compelling argument when nobody could determine Arsene's codename. People made the connection because Erdrick was already "leaked" and it was the easiest conclusion. Maybe think of other possibilities outside of datamining and rumours.
Daniel Torres
The game quotes a novel as foreshadowing without explicitly saying it was quoting the novel and resettrannies threw a fit so the dev patched the game to add a references list. Not that exciting.

Dedede doesn't talk in mainline games and neither does Yoshi, those are the noises they actually make, not symbolic of something else. Well not really Dedede but he's Sakura's baby so he can make him sound like whatever he wants.

Doom Guy and Erdrick should be on Steve's side, they're from the same leak. Left side should be Grinch leak characters, and Piranha Plant
Isaac Peterson
Yes, and?
William Smith
Added On it Had Reimu there because originally it was more just boomer vs zoomer picks
Anthony Morales
I'll take her, marx, bandana dee, geno, toad, waluigi, toon zelda, dixie, cranky, funky, anyone with a cartoony aesthetic instead of boring realistic/anime aesthetics that make up half the roster now. Sephiroth is the only anime character I'd be fine with because he is cool.
Realistically, this puts me in the Banjo camp, even though I've never played his games. You have my best wishes Banjo Bros.

Toys that become effectively real guns in combat. What's so hard to understand? Rating boards look at the content and how it's presented at face value, they don't give a shit about the lore.
Crocbros have always been with Banjobros. The ONLY ones who claimed they were coattailing are falseflagging Blockheads. I gurentee you that as soon as Banjo is confirmed, they will all use Banjo to shit on others. Don't believe their lies.
Sephiroths hitboxes would be pure unmitigated cancer. But if square wasn't gay as fuck he should have been one of the bosses
Bentley Long
I haven't really played Dragon Quest but I know some names, does Ragnar actually hang out with a friendly Healslime in his game? Because I would totally play it for that.

It seems like Square really does not care about DQ in the west but Nintendo has this weird faith in it and they just keep trying, so respect to them for that.
Daniel Myers
I have a Geno post screenshot building up. Saving it to add to all the Ridley neverevers and K. Rool neverevers posts I have stockpiled
Nobody's denying HM would be a good rep, the problem is that HM is in this weird limbo because Natsume owns the rights to the Harvest Moon title but Marvelous is the company making the actual Bokujou Monogatari (Story of Seasons) games, but Natsume is being greedy and trying to trick people by continuing to make shitty games with the Harvest Moon title in the hopes that people are uninformed and will buy those games, so a Harvest Moon character in Smash would be hard to do because you couldn't use the title of the series, and if you wanted to use someone like Jack (I think that's the old HM guy's name?) Natsume may still have some rights to him as a character too. It's all just really complicated bullshit.
This is being a little melodramatic. They're just a couple of clones that took zero effort to add. It's like saying "Chrom and Dark Samus were dark fucking times for Smash Ultimate."
Seeing them return alongside Corrin was a stain on the godlike Everyone is Here trailer
Nolan Campbell

Not just clones. Clone 1 was someone no one gave two shits about at all let alone in their respective series and ONLY got in because he was from Sakurai's game, and Clone 2 was a literal for all intent and purposes female Marth from a game that already got better representation in the form of Robin in an already oversatured series like Fire Emblem. Both, even for clones, were COMPLETELY needless.

The WonderWing grants B&K invincibility at the price of Gold Feathers. It can also destroy most (if not every) enemy in the game.
Might be a cool mechanic in Smash, so long as it can't be abused easily.
Cut him some slack, he's gotta spend his steve's before the Direct (Possibly before the invitational or the Microsoft conference)

Kazooie raises her wings in front of Banjo. If an enemy attacks during this time, Banjo dashes forward in a flurry of gold feathers, dealing damage based on how much damage the attack would have dealt.
