Who's had the best trailer so far?
Me
Banjo = K. Rool > Ridley > Hero > Belmonts > Piranha Plant > Inkling > Joker > Kenciniroar
king k. rool hands down
Belmont clan was objectively the most Kino. Better than the fucking Netflix series lmao
Banjo
The Belmont's was my favorite.
Joker's reveal was the most surprising, but that might have been more to do with it being at the Game Awards and him being fucking Joker than an actual good trailer.
Belmonts especially the Richter reveal.
I like that Joker was done in a similar style to the p5 opening but it has to be K.Rool or Banjo
>Every other trailer just has the fighters.
>Belmonts bother to model some Castlevania bosses too.
Banjo=K Rool>Ridley>Simon and Richter>Hero>Joker>Inkling>Plant>Isabelle>Ken and Incineroar
simon and richter
inkling's was also good for announcing the game itself as well
Belmonts > King K Rool > Heroes > Ridley > Ken & Incineroar > Joker > Banjo > Isabelle > Piranha Plant
Based
Depends.
Best trailer for being a genuine surprise is Joker since it came out of fucking nowhere at the Game Advertisements.
Best trailer for being funny is probably a tie between K Rool and Banjo since they both tie into each other.
Best action trailer is DQ heroes hands down.
Man I'm just so happy that my boys got in. It's my personal favorite reveal, but just about all of these reveals have been absolute bangers. I love this game.

Plant didn't have a trailer, what are you on? Also Joker would be higher but that awful fucking english dub. His JP trailer is #2 after K. Rool.
King K. Rool > Simon > Inkling > Ridley > Banjo > Joker > Hero > Incineroar > PP > Isabelle
Obviously Banjo is one of the best additions ever, and the trailer being derivative of K. Rool's is funny, but IS derivative so I can't love the trailer as much as I love the addition. The Inkling trailer ranks highly just for the pure shock value of a Smash trailer being dropped in a March direct.
Joker's for the sheer shock factor
No one thought it was a smash trailer until the card turned around
Ridley or K Rool, Belmont not far behind
Joker is a modern all-star, faggot.
King K Rool to me has THE BEST TRAILER. Why? Because let's face reality. King K Rool's trailer essentially and mostly looks like a trailer for a new Donkey Kong game where K Rool returns in the villain spotlight which is overdue thanks to the unwanted failure villains like the Viking Dudes and the Floating Masks from Returns and Tropical Freeze. You could literally just remove DeDeDe laughing and leave the trailer as is and it would feel like it's marketing a new Donkey Kong game.
Oh man I want K Rool back. Fuck you Nintendo stop wasting time with Metroid shit, let Retro Studios return K Rool to glory.
EVERYONE
I knew it was smash as soon as the yellow cross showed up, although admittedly that was only like 1 second before the smash logo
Isabelle is the only one with a legit bad trailer, unless you count Piranha Plant's quick show.
I don't even hate her but her reveal was boring
As a Robin main I am so happy that I'll get to stretch my rpg menu mentality in what looks like the most perfect way possible.
Passable Terry alt is great too.
How's the 3DS version for this guy's game? I know it looks uglier but does it at least run smoothly?
>flavor of the month
>all-star
Might be a question for the DQ general on /vg/. I've only played the ps2 version.
>flavor of the month
>literally still relevant two years after his game's initial release
Stay seething my dude
Yeah it runs fine. You can emulate it too. If you do play it tho, make sure to get the uncensor patch and the orchestral soundtrack patch.
Wow I can't believe Persona has been the flavor of the month for almost 15 years, you really set me straight user.
Jack Frost should have been the megami tensei rep.
Nobody gives a shit about Joker or Persona 5 anymore.
Literally not even a character in 98% of the series, besides Jack Bros and Synchronicity he is always completely unrelated to the plot. What would he do, use Bufu as every move?
Yes they literally do, stay mad drone.
KRool's and Banjo's are godly if just because they both came in after everybody assumed Smash already blew their load(with Simon/Richter+Chrom/Dark Samus, and then leading E3 with the DQ dudes) and then boom. It helps that they're both functional revivals for characters long dormant, KRool last seen in a sports spinoff and Banjo now a third party character MIA since the N64(and with only Nuts and Bolts to their name after the fact).
But in terms of actual quality, I got to hand it to the Belmonts.
>obligatory third party hero
>iconic NES era legend
>Luigi getting some good Luigi's Mansion gags in
>so many Castlevania enemies making a cameo
>triumphant remixes of Vampire Killer and Divine/Opposing Bloodlines
>Richter coming it at the end as the first "second character from a third party franchise" shouting a version of his classic meme line
Feels like DQ was honestly running off those same points.
>newcomer(Simon, 11) saves veteran(Luigi, Link) from enemy
>newcomer gets bashed up and is facing certain doom
>then some newer dude(Richter, 8/4/3) saves Newcomer
Isabelle's is fun because it doesn't seem like an obvious Smash trailer and it did lead into Animal Crossing Horizon's announcement.
Everybody honestly had really good trailers, outside of Inkling who tragically got shafted to be the "Smash 5 announcement" and Ridley who got stapled to the tail end of the Ultimate reveal and just got that short cinematic before gameplay footage.
I genuinely feel like Inkling should've gotten a big cinematic trailer.
Why is everyone hating the Kencineroar trailer so much ? it looked gorgeous and is easily on par with the DQ one.
Q2 was recently released and P5R is coming in a few months
There's also Scramble and whatever else they decide to pump out
He's gonna be here for a while so keep seething
Absolutely nobody wanted Incineroar, revisionists will lie about it but EVERYONE wanted the Grinch leak to be true.
>rosterfag still angry despite the circlejerk character being in
What do you think?
Probably because no one cares about Incineroar and Ken.
f
I fucking love Incineroar and the only reason I wanted the Grinch leak to be true is because of BK which I got anyway, so that’s good
K. Rool> Belmonts> Banjo> The rest
OP asked which one was the best trailer, not which one have the best newcomer. i know rostergfags are autistic, but Ken/Incineroar trailer was definitely better than Isabelle, PP, Banjo and Joker.
K.rool was top tier, as was banjo by proxy.
>Better than Banjo
Not even that big of a Banjo fan but nah
As far as cinematography goes it is great. Dynamic angles, action is focused without being hard to read, perfect use of slowdown, etc.
Nobody will ever top Sonic or Snake's reveal.
P5 easy
While every other has the same reveal direction (giving a faint hint before the reveal screen) P5 one was the only one to just drop the smash letter out of fucking nowhere
Nobody expected the reveal, it wasnt even in a nintendo stream
It was the biggest surprise of all
Cinematography is sadly underrated and underappreciated in places like this especially towards trailers. This is the same era that never experienced great music videos.
Have to admit, Banjo was one of the reasons I immediately thought the leak was fake.
I think the Belmonts and Hero had the best trailers.
They were long, cinematic, and had actual surprises when they revealed the other out of nowhere. They follow roughly the same format.
Ken and Incineroar were cool too, as was Rool, though not as good as Belmot and Hero. Short but humorous, and there was a lot of perosnailty and energy.
Ridley is after that, honestly wasnt too amazing but it had the novelty of having Mario get killed. Banjo was just a straight retread of Rools trailer.
Joker sucked, Piranha Plant didnt even have cinematics, Isabelle while it may be accurate, was way too long and boring, Inklings was cool for a announcement of the game but not really a good trailer.
This is comeplety judging the trailers alone and not any rosterfag shit or meta shit like when or where it was released.
So long story short

It already calls rosterfags in this thread.
K.Rool and the Belmonts were the best because how awesome and hilarious parts of it were.
>better than Banjo and Joker
Not in your fucking life, besides being the worst smash inclusion ever the trailer was also fucking boring. Literally nothing of note happens, it's a fucking boxing match.
This but I'd put K.Rool ahead of Banjo
>this is how a hypefag views trailers
People thinking a trailer is good hinges on them liking what's in it, fucking autist.
I got over not having SMT have the fighter but couldn't it have gotten some songs and spirits? Claiming 5 of all games is totally separate from the mainline games just isn't true.
Simon / Richter > K. Rool > DQ hero > Banjo > Ridley > Ken / Incineroar > Joker > Isabelle
Sorry I don't love your shitty trailer for a shitty character, do you want me to fucking critique it or something?
I'm glad people stopped pretending the Inklings/reveal trailer was good.
>first character revealed was a shill pick
>most of the trailer looked like a new Splatoon game
>vague teaser with no gameplay footage
>absolutely no real hype until E3 for anyone who wasn't a soiboi youtube reaction faggot
Good trailer concept wasted on an ugly shillmon, should have paired Ken up with another fighting game character.
You can't even follow what happened in the trailer so how cna you even critique it? You sound like those "critics" who opened their mouth towards Godzilla KotM.
>he still believes incineroar is a shillmon
You could say that we never saw it coming
I'd say Belmont's and Hero are equal and PP is the lowest tier since he didn't get any special movie.
This.
People are just mad because they hate Baracat but he grew on me.

man who couldn't be happy with that trailer

>muh grinch
Okay let's completely ignore that Inceniroar was hated years before ultimate was even announced. The equivalent of having Fi as a zelda rep.
Despite being a starter and clearly designed to be the next charizard they failed fucking miserably.
Joker > Inklings > Ridley > Kencineroar > Isabelle > Banjo > Krool > DQ > Plant
GF/TPC definitely wanted to push Incineroar as the shillmon of gen 7, Ash's Litten was chosen to evolve over Rowlet, but Incineroar ended up being as unpopular as Zoroark so now the anime is stuck with a partially evolved shillmon while Smash is stuck with the shillmon itself. Sakurai and GF/TPC should have chosen something other than another humanoid mon.
How
also did the belmonts stop existing or something
Grinch bullshit aside, neither of those characters were particularly interesting and for them to be the last characters announced until the DLC, it just felt extremely underwhelming compared to a lot of the other reveals. People wouldn’t have minded as much if they showed them off earlier and saved someone like K Rool for the final reveal.
>Sakurai and GF/TPC should have chosen something other than another humanoid mon.
This is what bothers me the most. They had a franchise with literal hundreds of beast/monster like creatures to choose from and they put in one with a moveset that could be done by a human. It'd be understandable if Inceniroar was even remotely popular but it wasn't.

Explain why no one liked him before Smash Ultimate was announced.
Or why people reacting to the direct unaware of the grinch leak were still dissapointed.

I WANT TO STICK ME PEEPEE ON ISABELLE'S POOPOO
We're talking about the quality of the trailer though, not reaction.

Impossible since you faggots literally spread your cancer outside Yea Forums.

literally why does anybody think this dude would ever get in in the first place
>gamefreak: PLLLEEEEAAAAASSSSDEEEEE LOVE INCINIROAR WE GAVE HIM INTIMIDATE HE'S IN EVERY EPISODE OF THE ANIME AND WE PUT HIM IN SMASH PLLELEEEEASSSSSEE LOVE HIM PLEASE WE SPENT HALF OUR MARKETING BUDGET ON HIM
Because they thought he would be another generic brawler with no personality before his actual moveset was revealed
t.Someone who loathed the idea of him being in the game until actually playing him.
Joker, the rest doesn't even come close.
>We're talking about the quality of the trailer though, not reaction.
The trailer was shit too
>woahhhhhhh he jump in ring
fucking incredible puts speilberg and other famous directors to shame
Cope, it's been months now and you're still at it darling
Because ninja gaiden was a popular game on the nes, plus koei tecmo has been involved in smash and hasn't ever gotten a character.
Ahh, good ol' November 1st, two thousand eighteen.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
I'm talking about during sun moon days. Not even Pokemon fans liked him. Why should non Pokemon fans like him?
Also "lul he do funny smile after doing move" isn't personality.
It's been months and you're still insecure about people not liking him
>NOOOOO THERE'S A HUGE CONSPIRACY LITERALLY EVERYONE 100% OF THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF THE WORLD WOULD'VBE LOVED HIM IF NOT FOR THE GRNICH LEAKFJKEWNFKAESJNFKEWNBFQW
In that case, I have no idea. The trailer itself looked pretty nice.
Speaking of that

That was entirely it. Sometimes lightning strikes and his silhouette appears against the backdrop. He doesn't make an actual appearance at all.
Because he's ugly as sin, which I can attest to.
But like I said he's still fun.
>Also "lul he do funny smile after doing move" isn't personality
He constantly showboats, does special poses after certain moves and shows anger and frustration when you miss certain others.
I get that you're a little salty that Pokemon gets a free ride but now you're just making shit up to complain about him. If you don't like him fine. Me personally, he grew on me.
It's sad how Inceniroar is from one of the biggest video game franchises in the world but has still been hated since he was leaked for sun and moon. It's like starting at the finish line in a race and still getting last place.
Banjo > K. Rool > Simon/Richter > Ken/Incineroar > Dragon Quest > Ridley > Inkling > shit > Joker > Reddit Plant > Isabelle
Uuuuh nobody said that sweetie, nice job outing yourself as a seething nancy though
The world exists outside of Yea Forums, and again, even outside of Incineroar the trailer was boring shit. 'Ooohh, a first person shot, woah slow motion', as if those things weren't used in literally every piece of media involving the sport fucking ever. The shot comps were wasted on utterly disinteresting subject matter, since Ken was a boring fuck too. The entire thing added up to be the most straightforward, uninteresting, utterly unappealing trailer for this series yet. Nobody likes it, they're completely justified for a number of reasons, and you need to sit down and shut the fuck up.
Best list yet
K. Rool and Simon
King K Rool = Banjo > Ridley > Hero > Belmonts > Kencineroar = Inkling >Joker > Isabelle

This means nothing.
>He constantly showboats, does special poses after certain moves and shows anger and frustration when you miss certain others.
Not personality.
>I get that you're a little salty that Pokemon gets a free ride but now you're just making shit up to complain about him
Twice in a row they managed to pick a pokemon that people actually liked for the "relevant" pick, of course when they fucked it up I'm going to point it out. Everything I said was true. Inceniroar never was and never will be a popular character. If Grinch never happened(and for a lot of people, it didn't) the reaction would've literally been exactly the same.
>he really can't into cinematography
Transformers is for you.
But he was fine even in SM days. Like I said only a certain group of people hate him.
>literally pulling shit out of his ass
amazing, I feel bad for people who actually hate Incineroar that they had to put up with clueless idiots
Yeah and that's why you retards spread your shit outside of Yea Forums. I am fucking surprised grinch garbage went out of its way into normalfag conversation.
And no, we're talking about shit like clean action shots, no shaky cam garbage, perfect display of cause and effect in action, among other things. But of course you faggots take those things for granted and are actually almost rarely used in every piece of media involving sports.
Inkling. It was the most iconic, and was emblematic of the newcomers to come.
You say that as if this conversation didn't start by incenilickers being butthurt that people didn't like their trailer.
>he says this while spouting in this thread that Pokemon is shilling him and that everyone hates him
Simon
They were shilling him.
Did....did you actually think that they added Inceniroar because people REQUESTED him??? OH NONONONONONONONO
>all these people ranking joker so low
Why? The trailer was great, minus the shitty english dub. Is it because you never played P5 or what?
>character shows personality
>it's not personality!
>character was picked because sakurai likes him and what he represents
>HE IS NOT POPULAR AND HE WILL NEVER BE!
Again, I pity people who legitimately hate Incineroar and have to contend with idiots like above.
I like how he plays and acts in Smash but there is just no defending that design.
The shittyness of his design is so powerful that for many people it can't be ignored and inescapable. He just looks like a shit character. Even when people like me who try defend him cannot defend that basic fact.
He might not be, but he looks like a shit.
>This means nothing
Considering how "fun" is literally the main point for many games including this one, I'd say it's a little important
>Not personality
Emoting is literally personality
>Inceniroar never was and never will be a popular character. If Grinch never happened(and for a lot of people, it didn't) the reaction would've literally been exactly the same.
That's fair. Even if I don't mind him there is no denying he got in for being Gamefreak's special boy.
Also I really need to emphasize just how shit he looks holy fuck.
>he still thinks a pokemon who get cynthia's garchomp tier representation is shilling
>the one who got in because Sakurai said he wanted him
Rosterfags really are mentally ill.
>But he was fine even in SM days. Like I said only a certain group of people hate him.
So unless if the people hating him(the majority) were people time travelling back to 2016 just to shit on him because they didn't like him being in Smash, then that would mean there's no huge conspiracy to hate Inceniroar and he's just a shit pokemon. Glad we agree.
>'Ooohh, a first person shot, woah slow motion', as if those things weren't used in literally every piece of media involving the sport fucking ever.
No smash trailer is breaking cinematographic ground and doing shots never seen before. Rating it on how "uninnovative" it is in the grand scope of all sports media is super fucking dumb. It was well done, and looked good. Only an idiot would deny that.
Whatever helps you sleep at night honey
>>he still thinks a pokemon who get cynthia's garchomp tier representation is shilling
Man I love playing as garchomp in Smash.
So why are people instinctively ignoring Sakurai's words.
I never realized Incineroar haters are this retarded, unable to understand that there are both people who like and hate him.
>But he was fine even in SM days. Like I said only a certain group of people hate him.
He often was out of the top 10 popularity of Sun & Moon Pokemon, so he wasn't even particularly popular among Pokemon fans themselves.
>unable to understand that there are both people who like and hate him.
The people who liked him were a minority even within the pokemon bubble.
Now, try imagine the people that don't even like pokemon. Even less people are going to like him.
Trailer? Probably Inkling, confirming the game, and Simon/Richter for the high as fuck production value.
Ridley > Belmonts > K. Rool > Banjo > Plant > Isabelle > Inkling > Kencineroar > Hero > Joker
Go look at the conversation user
>one guy asks why the trailer isn't rated high despite being good
>droves of answers unrelated to the trailer
>became shitflinging
I have no idea why faggots like to pretend otherwise when the thread is here for people to see.
He had to contend with Lucario.
The only metric we have is an old poll and he scored there though.
See now you're putting numbers on something that we don't even know. "Minority" my ass.
>Considering how "fun" is literally the main point for many games including this one, I'd say it's a little important
Because it's too vague to mean anything.
>Emoting is literally personality
happy when good thing happy and mad when bad thing happen isn't personality.
I'd switch Joker and Piranha Plant but otherwise I agree
All it was was the shitty dub though.
No gameplay, crappier cinematographics than any other trailer besides plant, no gameplay, it was just the shitty dub talking against a red background with weak Sony Vegas effects going on. What the fuck was great about it?
K. Rool's was so nice they used it twice.
>OP asks about the quality of the reveal itself
>It's blatantly obvious this whole thread is literally just "Character I really like is best while character I don't care is the worst"
That said K. Rool was the best. Perfect blend of hype and comedy.
Belmonts>>>Joker>Inkling>>>Ridley>Piranha Plant>>>>>Krool>Banjo>Isabelle>Ken/Incineroar>Dairy Queen
Joker. The surprise was unreal. Nobody expected it and it was crafted perfectly.
>literally misses the point where he exaggerates everything because there's an audience looking at the show, complete with shrugging when people miss his Side B as though it wasn't scripted

>>one guy asks why the trailer isn't rated high despite being good
>>droves of answers unrelated to the trailer

>I have no idea why faggots like to pretend otherwise when the thread is here for people to see.
Because what the trailer was for wasn't exciting. Let's say someone made an objectively perfect trailer for twenty people to go shit in your mouth, would you think, "man what a great trailer!"
>He had to contend with Lucario.
The equivalent to shit roar would've been adding Burmy as the gen 4 rep in Brawl.
>See now you're putting numbers on something that we don't even know. "Minority" my ass.
Chances are if people are shitting and complaining about something means that it isn't particularly popular. It's how I can tell that removing the national dex for SS is also unpopular.
Everyone hated it when it leaked because they thought it'd be another fucking fire/fighting starter. Blaziken's got a great hidden ability and the other two need not apply. I swear to god fire bunny, I swear to fucking god.
>Absolutely nobody wanted Incineroar
False
>EVERYONE wanted the Grinch leak to be true.
False
0 for 2 here, bud
anybody that actually wanted a sonic clone and the meme triplets is stone cold retarded and deserved to get shat on for the foreseeable future
I’m weird, I’d like Simon and Richter trailer the most but the Inkling trailer made me the happiest.
I fucking hate you faggots who think personality is what makes or breaks a character. We have several characters that hardly have any emotions at all (Wii fit, cloud, game and watch, Rob, the miis, Lucario, shiek, meta knight)
WHY DOES IT MATTER TO YOU AUTISTS
>Because what the trailer was for wasn't exciting.
You're literally talking about reactions. There's a reason you have "epic advertisements for some mundane product".
>The equivalent to shit roar would've been adding Burmy as the gen 4 rep in Brawl.
Ah so you are retarded. We're comparing about Incineroar's "shilling" - because apparently you faggots think that appearing in 4 eps as opposed to appearing almost every other episode is shilling. He was literally Cynthia's Garchomp in terms of appearance and importance.
>Chances are if people are shitting and complaining about something means that it isn't particularly popular. It's how I can tell that removing the national dex for SS is also unpopular.
I remember when people were making hashtags of removing Incineroar in SM dex. You just surrounded yourself with people who don't like him and agreed to that voice, thinking it's a majority.
No one will ever believe me, but it's going to be fire/fighting, specifically because the developers think it would be funny now. Incineroar was developed as one, too.
BASED!
He's a WWE wrestler that hams it up for the crowd. That's already more personality then a lot of other rep's including the other Pokemon.
Again, you're literally making shit up to hate him. If you don't like him that's fair but stop making shit it to justify something that doesn't even need to be justified.
I don't even particularly love Incineroar, characters like the Belmont's were far better picks and their personality can be described as "Christian boys with a frowny face".
You make it sound like he is a shit character though. He is fun to play as, arguably one of the most balanced characters who is doing Little Mac's "terrible for recovery" gimmick much better.
>weak sony vegas effects
Ex-fucking-scuse you? The trailer was hand drawn 2D animation, which is way more difficult than anything in 3D, and all you have to say about it is that it's a solid background and fucking default effects from a free editing program? Eat shit and die.
>Oh wait you're a delusional owlfag thinking Rowlet isn't the best.
/vp/ is not everything user
>developed as one
>literally conceived in sketches as a heel wrestler
It really is interesting that people are willing to lie for incineroar. Maybe for (Yous) or because it riles up people (which is working, kudos). Also for the record, leaker said it's pure fire.
>literally argues with "rowlet should evolve"
>You're literally talking about reactions. There's a reason you have "epic advertisements for some mundane product".
And it failed. Nobody was excited for inceniroar after the trailer, and nobody likes him now, so it was a failed trailer.
>Ah so you are retarded. We're comparing about Incineroar's "shilling" - because apparently you faggots think that appearing in 4 eps as opposed to appearing almost every other episode is shilling. He was literally Cynthia's Garchomp in terms of appearance and importance.
If they were equivalent Garchomp would be in smash.
>You just surrounded yourself with people who don't like him and agreed to that voice, thinking it's a majority.
Not that extreme, but nobody but the extreme pokemon apologists liked Inceniroar
There's barely any Inceniroar fan art(compared to popular pokemon) even after getting in Smash.
>The knight railer is a reversal of the hero trailer where the shadow dude comes to fight the light forces.
damn, i know he is a never ever.
>which is way more difficult than anything in 3D
no
He was made fire/dark because they realized it fit the heel element better later on, and your "leaker" doesn't know shit.
Unironically Joker’s
He was my most wanted character for the game so it was hype as shit imo
Not gonna lie, seeing it disproved had me wondering if I'd woken up in another timeline that morning. The golden sun item in particular really threw me off too.
I was fine with Incineroar though, Banjo eventually got in, and only Geno's left among those I really wanted. I still believe he'll make it.
KRool>Ridley>Belmonts>Hero>Banjo>Ken&Cat>Plant>Inkling>Joker>Isabelle
KRool's is so fucking good they essentially copied the format for Banjo's since they couldnt think of anything better
Ridley quietly sniping vidya heroes is fantastic, and that fucking grin while spinning mario's hat is perfection (the last bit is a bit lame though)
Belmonts little crossover with Luigi's Mansion is not only funny, it shows what the series is all about, fucking fantastic.
Hero's has this fucking awesome fight from Link vs Marth and Meta Knight, the format is derivative from the belmonts though, and it doesnt represent the series as well.
Banjo's is also derivative, but the duckhunt comparison plus the little reference were cute.
Ken and Cat is ok, its well shot but not really interesting in any way (the last shot of the others wanting to next was nice)
Plant is only good because all the stunned characters represent well what everyone felt about it, wether positively or negatively.
Inkling was just a short teaser, the clever way they tried to make it look like it was a splatoon trailer was lost due to bad formating on the direct though.
Joker's first half is great, but the second half DRAAAAAAGS SO MUCH
Isabelle's is a stealth AC trailer, which is smart, but i still feel like they could have done it better.
Literally yes, faggot. 3D animation is piss fucking easy, 2D is borderline crippling labor. I have a fucking degree in animation, I know more about this shit than you. Fuck off.
Simon and Richter's is godlike for the amount of love put into it. It's so charming, and the reveal of Richter caught me off guard and got me hype as hell. It's definitely toptier.
K Rool's good, but in hindsight, it could've been better if Sakurai went in hard on the Dedede joke. Imagine:
>Dedede troll scene

It would've gotten me completely erect with joy if it happened that way. I was pretty annoyed with K. Rool fags so it would've been a great way to get back at them. They still woulda had the character, but MAN. I can only wish it happened in an alternate reality.
Ken and mother fucking Incineroar. This one has got to be my favorite next to Piranha Plant just for what it meant. Those grinch niggers got hard btfo and I enjoyed every second of it.
Same deal with Plant. Watching people being confused to outrage was hilarious, god I loved it.
Joker's is surprising and left a mark on new territory to ANYONE with enough clout could get in. It was hype for different reasons, besides being a Persona rep.
DQ's is godlike, because I'm a sucker for the "ALL THE WARRIORS" trope, and watching all the detail they gave to the cast was amazing.
Banjo's is pretty good, points off for being a rehash though. It certainly felt like a triumphant message though, which I liked.
>TLDR: Plant=K&I>S&R=DQ>Banjo>Joker>KR>Ridley>Inkling>Isabelle
>banjo's trailer anything but decent
I like Banjo, but I can't defend the reuse of a trailer that's less than a year old. K.Rool's reveal was legendary though.
I think it was the best executed overall because it didn't immediately shout "Joker is in Smash" until the envelope flip. Where as even if the character was an amazing choice in the other trailers it was always obvious that it was happening.
I was really surprised they actually did it, but I'm still utterly speechless that they did it without a Switch port happening. I could only laugh at what S really was.
>And it failed. Nobody was excited for inceniroar after the trailer, and nobody likes him now, so it was a failed trailer.
See I can understand the former but the latter is a lie especially when you talk to people who aren't rosterfags.
>If they were equivalent Garchomp would be in smash.
And you had to compete with Lucario.
>Not that extreme, but nobody but the extreme pokemon apologists liked Inceniroar. There's barely any Inceniroar fan art(compared to popular pokemon) even after getting in Smash.
Unironically using apologist for a character. Amazing. And they exist, but of course you wouldn't count them for some odd reason.
user, heel immediately says dark. Also what, the leaker has been accurate to this point - the only wrong things it had were spellings.
The most sensible person in this thread and I agree with almost every sentiment.
The only thing I disagree is with Plant. Plant didn't have any special film around him and it just in general felt really cheap. At least Isabelle's stealth AC announcement was somewhat clever.
I just jumped in now to point out your hypocrisy. All of the Alola starters are garbage and rowlet is the only significantly popular stage of any of them, I will never argue that it should evolve.
I will however argue that incineroar was not popular and even after being revealed for smash it has received lukewarm at best reception. Compare/contrast to greninja.
The trailer was good though, loved the shot of his eyes in the dark. And Ken hitting the screen was great.
I'm always going to be biased towards anything Metroid, even then Ridley's trailer was just pitch perfect. Fucking love that little sigh Samus does, feels unironically epic in a "we meet again..." sort of way
Either K. Rool's or Banjos would be a close second for me
Yeah okay, I was remembering wrong. Still only because it wasn't particularly impressive, the animation quality wasn't sakuga tier anything by any means and the actual content was still boring as all fuck, just a bunch of white smoke figures of characters moving around on a red background.
I wouldn't really say that was more difficult then the extremely high quality 3D cinematography we got for stuff like Simon or Ken's trailer, those actually had an environment.
It was rushed out and it shows.
>but the latter is a lie especially when you talk to people who aren't rosterfags.
Or when you talk to pokemon fans, the series that Inceniroar is from?
>And you had to compete with Lucario.
And be put in Smash.
>Unironically using apologist for a character. Amazing
What would you call the people who spam the same reddit images of inceniroar for the past 8 months to even the slightest of criticisms? (or in this case just not thinking it's reveal was the most exciting)
It was reused because he was also Rareware, it wasn't like it was out of laziness. They absolutely wanted you to double take and it worked. K. Rool's is still better because of the perfect pacing and the fucking legendary use of the music, but Banjo's being almost the same trailer doesn't make it bad.
>That whole Dedede bit
There's this thing in comedy called "dragging" which usually kills the joke.
That's what you're doing.
I'm glad people don't pay you to make jokes
The only thing that is off about it imo is Banjo attacking K. Rool for seemingly no reason.
>Imagine
I just did, sounds like shit my man
>it could've been better if Sakurai went in hard on the Dedede joke
no, it really wouldn't have. and you illustrated why
The premise of the series is characters attacking each other for seemingly no reason. It's fine.
Combining Sm4sh and Ultimate for fun. Skipping the Sm4sh DLC trailers because they were generally just really lazy.

But the post I was originally quoting literally had "Rowlet would have evolve" tag. No one in their right mind would do that. That's the whole point I am going for and why I brought up owlfaggotry - because no one will do that unless you're a Decidueyefag.
Hell, if you notice, I'm not even going for popularity with Incineroar. I know for the fact that he's moderate at best, and that's why I love it - he isn't some shill. He got in Smash because Sakurai wants to, not because he was pushing for some agenda.
Oh you mean fans who are either indifferent, fine, like, or hate him? It's a huge variance you know.
Exactly, he was in Smash and Garchomp isn't. I would have preferred Garchomp over Lucario too even as an appearance.
>What would you call the people who spam the same reddit images of inceniroar for the past 8 months to even the slightest of criticisms? (or in this case just not thinking it's reveal was the most exciting)
Shitposters? Falseflaggers?
>K Rool's good, but in hindsight, it could've been better if Sakurai went in hard on the Dedede joke. Imagine:
It would have been dumb because everyone would have known it was Rool, and they're not going to make a whole trailer to announce Dedede, you're not fooling anyone just annoying them. Like the other reply said, you're just dragging out what should be a short joke.
ridley > king k rool > inkling > castlevanias > banjo > isabelle > hero > incineroar > plant > joker
>it wasn't like it was out of laziness
There's no reason they couldn't make a new trailer with DK, Diddy, and Rool even if they needed everyone to be together though, it was definitely done to save time and money.
>Robin and Lucina number 1
I wouldn't put it above any Ultimate trailer except Incineroar and maybe Isabelle but it's definitely the best Smash 4 trailer.
>hero and incineroar below isabelle
>castlevania below inkling
Robin/Lucina get number 1 for completely destroying the Gematsu leak in one fell swoop alone.
Also personal bias because Robin was my most wanted newcomer for Sm4sh.
>Oh you mean fans who are either indifferent, fine, like, or hate him? It's a huge variance you know.
>Exactly, he was in Smash and Garchomp isn't. I would have preferred Garchomp over Lucario too even as an appearance
There's maybe 10,000 people at most that like inceniroar compared to the rest of the pokemon fandom
>Shitposters? Falseflaggers?
Why did we see literally thousands of these yet there's never been a genuine post of appreciation towards inceniroar?
Snake will always have the best reveal. Completely out of left field, no one had any idea 3rd party characters could even be in the game. I remember hearing that codec ring and absolutely losing my mind.
Nice number you got there. Can I see your citation?
You literally saw them right now, with posts like "he is fun to play as".
>Banjo in front of anyone
My god smash fans are retarded
The only memorable part of that trailer was falcon.
Yeah, but in this thread you had an exchange like
>incineroar sucks
>there's a world outside of /vp/
>yeah but normalfags hate it too, it would've evolved in the anime all the way if people did, they chose it over rowlet for advertising purposes
>you must be an owlfag
That's prime /vp/ faggotry.
Just pointing out poor form since I'm sure you'll get into more arguments about the cat and you'll have a better time of it without doing one of the things you're criticizing others of. Cheers.
The funniest part is the Brawl trailer shows the box for half a second the play.
>The last trailers are all variations of the K Rool one with each getting more outlandish and more characters crammed into DK's treehouse
Joker is probably the best and most hype because no one was expecting it
It hurt people's feelings. It was a great trailer.
Incelroar was the most hated starters in its own game. Just an ugly design so it’s trailer was a let down when they’re were better characters to add.
>You literally saw them right now, with posts like "he is fun to play as"
The same post that said he's ugly and he would've preferred many other characters? Is that really your example for a character that's supposed to be loved?
Nope it was shit.
Every fucking idiot here is rating it by whatever they wanted, they would consider nothing but a zoom in on a crappily drawn picture of Geno a good trailer because he's a major rosterfag pick.
Discussing trailers here is pointless.
>yeah but normalfags hate it too
lol
No prob, it's just frustrating because you can see people twist words and shit (like no one mentioning why Incineroar got in the first place). And honestly I don't think /vp/ does that anymore, it's stale. The new hotness is (rightful) SS shitposting.
>the only time you can like a character's inclusion is when they are adored without noticing its flaws
Hell he isn't my pick for gen 7 as well but I still like his inclusion and liked how he plays, and wouldn't have it any other way. And as a pokemon himself he's fine.
>gematsu leak
my god, i completely forgot about that
Ironically it had a basis, just not the way we thought.
>apparently Sakurai was considering Chrom but saw Robin
>RH exists but not the Chorus Boys
>yet there's never been a genuine post of appreciation towards inceniroar?
that's because you keep completely ignoring them desu
No, the second to last one shouldnt be like that but the LAST one should like that, with all the dlc characters inside DK's house
Personally i just didnt find the fight engaging, its not bad, Incineroar in the dark with his eyes glowing looks cool and the little mac vs ken was ok but i just didnt feel it.
would have been much better if D3 showed up, did his laugh, and then cut to black for a few seconds without K rool showing up. Hell after cutting to black they could have showed all the company credits/logos like they always do at the end of each trailer to really fuck with the viewers and then proceed with the reveal
You can't ignore something that doesn't exist.
I guarantee you there isn't a single piece of genuine fan art in anyone who've posted le epic salt roar in any threads.
I know you're upset that characters people liked got in a game about playing as popular video game characters but that doesn't mean the trailers were bad.
>I guarantee you there isn't a single piece of genuine fan art in anyone who've posted le epic salt roar in any threads.
that's bullshit since I grab most of my Incineroar fanart on Yea Forums and there's a couple of user that dump Incineroar images when needed
Inkling was a 100% lock in for the new smash, so having the surprise of their trailer be the smash announcement itself was the way to go
Anyways Joker > Belmonts > K Rool > Banjo > Hero > Ridley > Ken/ Roar > Ink > Belle > Plant
Joker's was actually the best, if only it didn't take more than 4 months for any fucking info on him
That doesn't mean the trailers were good, either. Banjo's trailer was a pretty good followup and appropriate for the character, though. I wouldn't call it the best though.

Funky won't happen but I like the idea of bringing it back to DKC at the end.
What the fuck made you think that? If anything I implied the opposite.
A good character with a shitty trailer is still a shitty trailer. A good trailer with a "bad" character is still a good trailer. But people here think character they want=good trailer
What the fuck made you think I was upset about any character getting in the game.
What would you argue is bettrr?
Not him but easily Simon's and Hero's.
Isabelle? >:(
Is it even possible to have a non-furshit Incineroar art? Have an unrelated loli if that Incineroar upsets you.
Belmonts and it isn't even close.
I'm him but easily Simon's and Hero's. Those are top-notch. I gotta say all of Ultimate's trailers were in general much better than Smash 4's. Glad we're getting more of them for DLC.
All things considered I genuinely think Inciniroar and Corrin are both very, very bad picks for Smash.
They were put in on the strict basis of advertising their games and nothing more. Corrin has become a completely irrelevant character outside of Smash because there is a new FE coming and there is far more older and popular Pokemon to choose from other than fucking Inciniroar because just like Corrin he has become irrelevant with the new gen coming in.
Someone might say that Joker, Banjo, The Hero and a few other characters like Young Link are irrelevant too but in those cases they are more of representing their current or previous iterations of their franchises, The Hero even has other DQ Heroes as skins.
In Banjo's case, I can't really justify the character in and of itself without going into Rare and Microsoft as a whole so I'll basically say that Banjo is a representation of Nintendo and Microsoft working together.
Young Link is the first character we play as in Ocarina of Time, which happens to be THE definitive 3D LoZ game to date.
Every other character is unique and has a very good justifiable reason to be in the cast.
Cloud? Literally the most popular Final Fantasy protag and recognized world-wide even after almost a decade long shill campaign from Square to get Lightning as the face of the franchise.
Snake? While his franchise is frankly dead at this point it's impression on story-telling in video games and the fact that MGS is literally the reason why the Stealth genre became a thing is warrant enough for him to be there.
I could go on but the exception is Inciniroar and Corrin. Both of these characters are completely irrelevant in almost every way. They are not as popular as Marth or Ike and they're only showcased in a singular iteration of a long franchise. Pair Robin with them too because I legit forgot he even existed.
And it's because of that, that I'll never find them fun or intriguing. It's a shameless advert in an otherwise great game.
You can draw anthropomorphic animals without wanting to fuck them. Whoever drew that obviously wants to fuck the cat.
>Isaac never made it
>If he did he would just be another anime down-b counter sword fighter with none of his cool psynergy and djinns besides Move
It hurts bros
I used to fantasize about that bug girl trapping Link in a web one day and forcing him into her while acting like a spider or bug of some kind.
For whatever reason I always envisioned Isaac getting revealed after Ridley
>Ridley about to deal the finishing blow to ZSS
>magic vines grow out of the floor to restrain and muzzle Ridley
>he's raging about it, trying to break free
>Isaac walks in and summons a giant fist to POUND him into submission
>splashscreen
>cut to gameplay
>CGI resumes as Isaac drew his sword and is still fighting Ridley
>Felix appears and summons meteors on Ridley's ass
>splashscreen, gameplay
This is a rough af outline but you get the point
yeah, I've seen non-furry incineroar art a handful of times. What you posted was very clearly furry art though.
Obviously it was so shit that he forgot it entirely.
>agitha is a loli

I love Isabelle and all but her trailer wasn’t that great
>They were put in on the strict basis of advertising their games and nothing more.
>Sakurai put a Pokemon from a generation that was going to get phased out by LGPE before the game even released

based
she's cute and my main in Hyrule Warriors
too bad I don't have much art of her
I wanted a DK character to get them out of the house, and Funky taking them to the beach seemed like a comfy way to end things.
Although now that I think about it Cranky telling everyone, including DK and Diddy, to GTFO would've been funnier.
I like that art piece I posted. The face reminds me of certain Dragon Quest monsters.
Simon and Richter, no doubt. Also is Luigi like actually dead now? Soul left the body?
To add onto what you said about Corrin and Incineroar, not only are both irrelevant now but both were also hated from day one by a really large portion of their respective fanbases regardless of Smash.
>>Sakurai put a Pokemon from a generation that was going to get phased out by LGPE before the game even released
>Retard
You're really going to try and sit here and tell me that Inciniroar is one of the most influential Pokemon in the franchise and not literally any other starter from any other region or even legendary or even just fucking popular Pokemon like Absol?
I mean come on dude, Greninja was more popular than fucking Inciniroar back before even USUM came out and the generation was still kinda new. Inciniroar at this point is just one of the many starter Pokemon most people look back to and are like "Oh yea, that was cool design."
>but both were also hated from day one by a really large portion of their respective fanbases regardless of Smash.
you shouldn't get your opinions on what the majority of the fanbase thinks from Yea Forums and /vp/
k rool
The castle is a creature of chaos. He was revived but Gooigi happened in the process.
>cope
>seethe
>He's good because he poses and makes people mad
Every time
Mega man’s
This may shock you but I have a life outside of Yea Forums, both of those characters are hated by the fanbase at large, not just here.
It's not like they can do market research or whatever since they pick Pokemon from new gens before the gen even releases. And there's nothing wrong with it. I'd rather new gens get represented in Smash games so there can be a nice balance of old and new Pokemon in the roster. Otherwise we'd just get Gen 1 Pokemon + Lucario.
>Pair Robin with them too because I legit forgot he even existed.
I literally keep on forgetting just how much fucking FE characters there are in Smash and half of them are literally one-off characters.
>Lucina
>Corrin
>Robin
Literally why the fuck are these characters even in the game? Nobody fucking wanted any of them in and they all come from relatively new (and subsequently mediocre) FE games that most people forget by the time the next game comes out.
The ONLY character that I can say isn't a complete fucking waste of a slot is Chrom and that's only because he's a reused asset and almost every FE fan has been asking for him in Smash since Smash4.
Everyone is here>>Rool>Belmonts>Ridley>Hero>Banjo> Joker(VGA)>Kencineroar>>>>>Joker(gameplay)>>>>Inkling>Isabelle>>>>>Plant
Nothing tops the first montage of everyone back, I was so happy Snake was back.
Most of the trailers imo have been really solid. Rool and Belmont’s are my fav but Kencineroar and up are all good. Joker was great at the VGAs but the gameplay trailer was meh. Inklings were meh, Isabelle is for furries and basedbois only, and Plant stopped being funny 6 months ago.
>but I have a life
nobody who has said this has ever had a life
Ridley by far
Inkling > Belmont/Hero > K.Rool/Banjo > Ridley > Kencineroar > Joker/Isabelle
>FEfags
>Wanting Chrom
You mean patternfags wanted him.
Also nothing about Roy, the worst FE addition kek
Ridleyfag here but the trailer was not great. I knew it was Ridley from the moment that Samus stepped on the scene. Also I am so triggered they used the Brawl remix instead of the new Ridley remix which is way better. Almost like when Robin was revealed in 4 and they used the Melee melody instead of that new remix then :/.
Except for when the "new gen" suddenly becomes the "old gen" when the next one comes out and then suddenly your one and only reason for having him on there is gone and now he just looks awkward and feels weird having him there because it's past it's prime.
Again, you could have literally used any of the more popular starter Pokemons from previous gens, Legendaries even or just very frequently used and popular Pokemon like Zoroark. There are literally hundreds of Pokemon and instead of using one that has shown to be relevant across time and different generations they instead picked the most popular starter from the most recent game and just hoped that it would stick to being popular, which it fucking didn't.
At least Greninja was picked up after a solid year of XY being released and the fanbase had shown very positive reinforcements on it. They literally pulled Inciniroar into the roster out of sheer force of shilling for Sun and Moon instead of using more popular Pokemon from even that same gen like one of the Lycan forms or UB's which would have definitely been more unique.
I wanted Chrom and I don’t even like Fire Emblem. I wanted him since I thought it would be funny after his 4 trailer cameo and to trigger rosterfags.
Die hard smt fan here, who probably has a whole lot more of experience in the series as you.
Jack Frost is and meme and only relevant in the SMT circle and if you think he has any mainstream appeal then you're delusional. It's like saying a Prinny should get in
The only possible SMT character was Flynn
>only possible character was Flynn
Holy shit please disregard all the errors in my posy
>SMT
>having mainstream appeal at all
Ohnonono....
Best to worst:
K-Rool, Banjo, Simon/Richter, Joker, Ridley, Hero, Ken/Incineroar, Inkling, Isabelle, PP
Flynn is the only SMT character that is somewhat close to being as relevant to Joker. Demifiend, Raidou or Space Marine would have been cool but are completely 120% out of the realm of possibility
Which is what I was implying.
>showing Dharkon
Fucking spoilers nintendo. That being said I like the WoL based trailers since they're the only cinematics we'll ever see.
I liked the Ridley trailer.
>and feels weird having him there because it's past it's prime.
One of the appeals about Smash Bros is that various aspects of Nintendo's history are represented, including things that were only relevant for a period of time. What's so wrong with representing a specific gen?
>They literally pulled Inciniroar into the roster out of sheer force of shilling for Sun and Moon instead of using more popular Pokemon from even that same gen like one of the Lycan forms or UB's which would have definitely been more unique.
Lycancuck and UB would have been "shilling" like Incineroar too, retard. The only reason Incineroar got in over them is because Incineroar's wrestling gimmick was more interesting/fun to work with.
Come to think of it, is Megami Tensei actually the only franchise in Smash that didn't start as a videogame?
Castlevania
Incineroar got in because Sakurai wants him as a wrestler. Nothing more personal or pure than that.
Nothing wrong with hating incineroar. What is wrong is trying to do gymnastics on his inclusion especially when facts exist.
Pretty sure Greninja got in Smash when he was just a draft, and even then the gap between XY and Smash was short as fuck, that the first "promo" for XY was Smash Greninja.
>Flynn
It was DemiFiend and we both know it
I'm biased as all fuck, but the Belmonts for me. Simply due to the sheer amount of Castlevania content that came with it.
Megami Tensei and Shin Megami Tensei aren't actually affiliated, megaten is a dumb fan term because for some reason autists can't accept that Persona is a SMT spinoff.
>perfectly normal thread
>Incineroar gets brought up once
>suddenly shitflinging on all sides
I think it's physically impossible for Yea Forums to have a civil discussion about this character, because both sides of the equation seem to revel in spouting the same lines and drowning out everyone else.
Yeah this, it's like saying Castlevania is based off a book.
The only civil discussion you can have about Incineroar is in gay threads. And it's some nice discussion.
Come user, seriously?
Demifiend appeared in a relatively obscure 15 year old PS2 game and isn't even really that iconic.
Flynn was the focus of a fairly popular and recent 3DS duology.
But both of them are unfortunately nothing compared to Joker
Ironically you can have a decent thread if it's only abou thim.
>a spot was reserved from the start for whatever mon they ended up liking from S/M and he just picked incineroar to add a wrestler
>but they couldn't reserve a spot for the protagonist of their upcoming major JRPG whose prior rep in the game is ancient by now
>said jrpg turned out to be one of the most popular beloved rpgs of the year
>sun/moon is already rapidly being forgotten with incineroar having basically no correlation to it or that entire gen's theme
>but they couldn't reserve a spot for the protagonist of their upcoming major JRPG whose prior rep in the game is ancient by now
To be fair, you only need Shulk to properly represent Xenoblade. He's also the best looking protagonist the series has.
This. How could they do this to us Townbros?
You could literally use that argument for many characters there though. Besides, Incineroar got in because he's a wrestler.
IV is my favorite game but dude, Nocturne is the one with the mass appeal. Not only does it have staying power as one of the most respected RPGs ever, DemiFiend himself is a really iconic and recognizable design; moreso than of the other protags except space marine. IV sold as much as it did in large part due to the influence of Nocturne. And besides, console borders clearly don't matter now that Joker is in.
It's simple, Gamefreak have more money than they normally know what to do with, and can throw their weight around much more than Monolith Soft. It's not like they're going to put that money towards their actual games, after all. Might as well use it to force some advertising.
Nigga GF wishes it can throw its weight on Sakurai.
based
Belmonts
GameFreak really needs to be throwing that money at their own games, fuck.
I love xc1 and i know it is a better written game but you gotta admit, in modern day at this point Pyra (or Pyra/Rex as a pair) is more iconic than Shulk himself
>Implying GameFreak is that involve
Sakurai just likes including new gen Pokemon. You don't need to make it a conspiracy theory when the creative control has always been with Sakurai up until the Fighters Pass.
Castlevania is just a bunch of elements taken and put together in a video game, it's in the same boat as Kid Icarus.
What do you mean?
>The Megami Tensei series began life as a media expansion of the Digital Devil Story series, a set of science-fantasy novels written by Aya Nishitani during the 1980s.[67]
Atlus bought the rights to the books, but the franchise distinctly started from the books.
>literally the only time Sakurai has ever confirmed that a company had a reserved spot
GF has pull, whether you want to admit it or not. When they want something, they get it.
>conspiracy theory
There isn't even a theory here beyond "GF is swimming in money, Scrooge McDuck style every single day" and we both know that's true.
Yeah this, even if Incineroar didn't get in or a new Pokémon didn't come in, your Rex won't get in magically
Smash Bros ensured that more people recognize Shulk. Rex wishes he had what Shulk did. Ironically, I think Sakurai wishes Rex had what Shulk did too.
I think you would be surprised at the amount of people who at least tried SMTIV despite not playing a non-persona game
>It's simple, Gamefreak have more money than they normally know what to do with
actually after doing a bit of research i've come to realize that game freak makes the least money out of the three companies who own pokemon
Banjo was basically an upgraded version of K Rool since it acknowledges that K Rool's trailer already happened and is in itself a parody of it.
Please don't bring up the idea of Pyra and Rex as a pair in Smash ever again, otherwise im going to cry.
God I hope we get a 2nd season with just Nintendo characters
dude there's appreciating XC1 for what it is and then there's just being delusional, every modern nintendo fan loves or at least recognizes pyra/mythra/rex, shulk has always been the most obscure person on the roster. when he was added to smash 4 the only means of playing his 100 hour game was a 3DS port on a tiny screen or an extremely expensive physical copy for the Wii
GF might be swimming in money but Sakurai has balls. He was going to drop Pac-Man if he couldn't use the classic design and he's told people like Miyamoto/Iwata that their suggestions for characters were shit. Sakurai has a ton of creative freedom when it comes to the Pokemon IP, that not even Nintendo themselves have. Do you remember how the Pokemon Smash amiibo didn't even have sounds and shit in Mario Maker?
Nah because the K. Rool trailer still has better pacing and use of music, and it ends on a better shot. The only thing Banjo has on K. Rool is shock value, and even that's debateable.
Banjo has had the best trailer for the fact that immediately after it aired, normal Smash discussion took place on Yea Forums again.
>Smash mansion/headcanon threads came back
>Steveposting is generally laughed off and irrelevant
>People actually talking about the game itself again
>Everyone in complete unison now agrees the roster is complete, and anyone after would be a nice bonus
>It made a ton of people replay the first game and realize it wasn't purely nostalgia that made people want Banjo, but the fact this his game was so fucking good and that Rare was capable of filling a game with so much love and enjoyment, and how it even holds up to this day, some people mistaking it graphically to an original Xbox game
XC2 has sold less than 2 million copies and XC2 even has Shulk in it. All the Smash games Shulk has been in outsold XC2.
i thought it was a braindead obvious idea from the start to just do for rex what they did for Joker and have Mythra/Pyra/Nia be like Rex's 'stands' crossed with Shulk's "mode switch" mechanic.
>Shows up in 3 different trailers
Joker is in PQ2 on 3DS.
>all the smash games
so 2
and why would sales of smash have fuckin anything to do with xenoblade iconicness
i'm just saying you show normies a picture of pyra most likely they will recognize her, you show them shulk and they ain't never played that shit. i am not slamming XC1. i don't know why you want our high quality niche game to be more mainstream. look at what mainstream popularity has been like for XC2, i dunno why you WANT to believe XC1 fandom is like that
>All the Smash games Shulk has been in outsold XC2.
...So this... Is the power... Of internet arguments...woah....
That's not pull, that's literally just existing. Even from the beginning you get 2 Mario's and Pokémon, and since then have a newcomer or two.
This. Pokemon in this game have shit not found in their games.
>so 2
3, if you count the Wii U and 3DS versions separately.
>and why would sales of smash have fuckin anything to do with xenoblade iconicness
Because Smash Bros can help bring obscure characters into people's attention. Characters like Ness or Captain Falcon have become iconic solely based on their Smash representation. Doesn't matter if those people haven't played XC1, it doesn't stop Shulk from being much more iconic than Rex will ever be.
i think it's pretty funny how the only western-made characters playable in all of smash bros are 3 Rare OCs and one echo fighter based on a character made by Retro Studio.
if they add doomguy he would legit be the first completely original western-made character in the game.
i'm not even gonna read all that shit dude you are taking this argument a lot more seriously than is at all necessary just to avoid acknowledging that a lot of people want to fuck pyra
>Can't even read a couple of sentences
lmao
>Rare OCs
Banjo already has that title.
K. Rool
Yes... that's what I said
Banjo, Diddy, and K.Rool are Rare OCs
Dark Samus is Retro's contribution
every single other thing is japanese
Simon Belmont had the best trailer for certain. It was long, it was interesting, it had a really nice crossover gag with Luigi.
He's not my favourite newcomer, but his trailer was by far the best.
I like to think it's good BECAUSE of K Rool's trailer
It's not as good as it was if K Rool's trailer didn't already happen
Belmonts for sure. Loved the look of the castle.
Banjo's already the first completely original western-made character in Smash, regardless of what company he comes from, since he's his own franchise
I want to say Belmonts because, despite being spoiled that we were getting a Castlevania character, the whole trailer hyped them up really well. The fact it managed to pull that is a testament to it's quality.
Joker blew me away, but his trailer is actually kind of underwhelming when you think of what it actually was.
Banjo's like Joker in that the trailer is mostly propped up by the character choice.
Smash isn't some welfare program though.
>Banjo Kadeadseries
Could have fooled me
It usually isn't. But it can be. Which is why Shulk will outlive Rex in people's memory and probably already has.
As it should be.

Why would you think I don't already know this
Pic related, my Koro-chan
This. Also it's amazing. In just the recent kemoket Incineroar got...
>not one but TWO anthology books
>two doujins
Megaman but sonic was the hypest
The anthology books were posted? Shit, I missed it.
Sounds like you're stating an opinion
Anyway no one liked Corrin because he was boring in his own game
No one liked Incelroar because his design is outright bad
An thank god for that. God I hope the next game has a character that looks at least as good as Shulk, and has some decent fucking weapon design, as well as non-atrocious writing. I don't know why people love XC2 so much, it dropped the ball so fucking hard.
>plus koei tecmo has been involved in smash
Have they? I thought it was only Bamco.
Corrin is less boring (that's Roy's thing) and more outrageously frustrating and stupid.
>Sounds like you're stating an opinion
>Proceeds to state opinion
lmao

Not yet leaked sadly.
>Someone is saying something I don't like so it's an opinion!
fucking kek fag
Oh, misread your post. I thought someone posted them. Hopefully they get leaked.
>If I see an opinion get posted on Yea Forums, it must mean that everyone shares this opinion
get a life, nerd lol
Yes, but I think Jack Bros. would have worked better for moveset.
I like all of the trailers pretty equally with only a few being notably better or worse
+ trailers
>Banjo/K. Rool
>Joker
- trailers
>Isabelle
>The Hero
Isabelle's was nice and stylized but the character itself is definitely a big part of the trailer. I don't care for the pooch all that much due to her playstyle so I dock it.
Roughly the same reason why I wasn't crazy about The Hero, but that's just because his trailer felt like a generic "THE HERO ENTERS" bit pulled by MegaMan already with Sm4sh. If you swapped out The Hero with Doomguy nothing would change with the plot or context of the trailer.
Everything else is pretty even for me.
Guess I should say that I've never played Persona 5 and actually really hate the Joker character in Smash because fuck weeaboos lol but damn I am a sucker for that style. The Kong trailers are just pure fun, not much else to say there.
>but that's just because his trailer felt like a generic "THE HERO ENTERS" bit pulled by MegaMan already with Sm4sh
Mega Man's trailer was him beating up Smash veterans, though. Hero's trailer is directly tied to the story in Smash.
Mystery man enters, fights the cast, mystery man revealed. It's a bit of a rerun and I don't care too much for Dragon's Quest admittedly so there's my bias. Regardless that Erdrick guy has a SICK design holy FUCK.
Based, but you can't really leave out the DQ character in these accomplishments, he was revealed on the same day
K Rool or Ridley
If only kemonono is around.
This, Erdrick has the best Hero design by far. Peak Toriyama complete with clashing colors and everything
More like mystery man saves the cast. Similar to Belmont's trailer but the Hero actually does his job. It's nice to see a trailer about heroics.
Red Ryu and furryshit. It shouldn't have been the final trailer either.
Ridley was just an event in itself. The meltdown on Yea Forums and the Internet was legendary.
Decades of TOO BIG memes, gone like tears in the rain, swatted away by Nintendo.
I still think 8 is the best one, followed by 4 but only the female version.
He also shows up in the world of light cg movie, and in gameplay form in the joker gameplay trailer.
I like 4 the most
Really a cool and unique design, green is an interesting color, hair isn't spiky and is more unique, interesting headgear...
So it has nothing to do with the trailer itself.
Pretty much. Just pure rosterfaggotry.
I don't know how rosterfaggoty can get so intense in a person.
It's seriously very strange to me, I can't imagine anything more than simply not caring about a character's inclusion at the most.
It is amazing how even in degeneracy Pokémon still triumphs.
>first few days of June
>in Housamo, there's an "evil" version of a popular male character
>poised for getting fanart
>Pokémon sword shield direct
>immediately overshadowed by bara zacian, zamazenta, milo and even corviknight art
>Inkling
>Shill pick
probably because people start to see characters they don't want as the reasons their characters aren't going in
rosterfags are very cliquish and also retarded
Banjo. At first you'd think they'd completely fuck up by reusing the same trailer of K.Rool, but it makes complete sense. My face was hurting from all that grinning like a fucking idiot right from the moment i saw that jiggy pass by, it was beautiful.
It's always fun reading back and seeing all these posts for banjo and the rest.
Joker>Ridley>Belmonts>K.Rool=Banjo>Kencineroar>Heroes>Inkling/Reveal>Plant>Isabelle
Don't think anyone would care why I ranked each one the way I did, but for Joker, it totally caught me off guard. Didn't really like his inclusion but his trailer was great.
