Where did the Doomguy meme come from? Like how did people delude themselves into ever thinking Doomguy will make it into Smash? Because Sakurai talked about John Carmack one fucking time?

Doomguy’s never getting in. Japan doesn’t know who the fuck Doomguy is, he doesn’t even have a proper name, and is from a series that rivals Mortal Kombat in the blood and guts department.
>But Bayonetta! But Snake! But Joker!
If you bring up any of those three, you’re fucking retarded. None of them come close to Doom in terms of graphic violence, and Japan cares a lot less than sexual content then we do over here.

Travis Touchdown and Phoenix Wright.

Doomguy is a gaming icon, popularized the FPS genre, and has an easy shillpick for Doom Eternal. It's not like he's a stranger to Nintendo consoles, and we know Bethesda talked to Nintendo about Smash.

If Bethesda’s getting a character it’s most likely the Dragonborn. Skyrim was actually popular in Japan, unlike Doom.

Good decision on not picking Sora and his gaping mancunt

Even Sora has more of a chance than Memeimu.

Is Touhou really popular/influential enough to warrant inclusion? Wtf is with this meme

I bet you also thought Ryu would've been the first Capcom character.

Literally the biggest indie franchise in the world

May I remind you guys Reggie said the characters in the dlc pass are going to be new to smash Bros in general. And so far it's been completely true.. joker, Banjo and the hero have been nowhere in any smash game.. not stickers.. nothing.

Sylux and wonder red have been trophies and Geno famously a spirit. We will not get Rayman or shantae or any character you remember from any smash game.

They'll all be third parties for sure

Snake doesn't use guns in smash

Bayo's guns shoot purple magic

Jokers guns are airsoft guns that only work because of retarded metaverse magic.

>Reggie said

Well Reggie isn't at Nintendo anymore, fuckwit.

We live in a timeline where the motherfucking chosen undead is more likely to get into smash than Wonder Red and it hurts me

Wow you sure told him.
he said that when he still worked for Nintendo

Doesn't mean that what he said suddenly stops being true

It doesn't matter what he says anymore. He doesn't work there. Why would you listen to some guy who USED TO work somewhere?

Because he said it when he was still employed there

-Astral Chain cop + Legion as another dual fighter
-I feel like the last pick is either something Sakurai saved because he knows the hype it would generate, or it's just another pick from Nintendo to promote games. So maybe Crash if the former, and I guess Travis Touchdown to promote NMH 3 if not.

Though the 2 I want are Isaac and Adol Christin.

Reread the posts you're replying to

Reimu is clearly the only one on that list who fits the cartoony aesthetic of Smash. Do Smashfags really have no one else to latch onto?

Would you listen and blindly believe to someone who worked at some company in the past? Just because Reggie said something while employed doesnt mean we should listen to him now that he's NOT employed there.

Are you a fucking retard? Go back to jacking off to lolis

When he said it he would have had insider info.. which wouldn't have changed considering how far into development the characters would have been. THEN he retired.

What's not to understand? He was the face of Nintendo at the time in America for NOA. it's gonna be solid info.

You're being weird user. Are you okay?

I think he's fairly unrealistic, but not impossible. 3? Doom games are on or coming to nintendo consoles, Bethesda/id have been showing Switch a lot of support, and he's definitely a gaming icon, far moreso than Master Chief or Sora. I personally think Dragonborn is more likely too, but Doomguy has a chance.

not all scales weigh things the same, user. even though I stepped on a scale and it said I weighed 400 lbs, I could step on a new scale and it could say 200 lbs. that means you don't trust the first scale, you absolute fucking moron.

Elder Scrolls: Blades was at E3 you retard. No one cared about it.
Peter Hines also said that they have fun surprises for Nintendo fans when talking about Doom.
Sure, Skyrim sells, but Bethesda sure as fuck isn’t focusing on it anymore and have another mainline TES in development.

If people were annoyed by Westerners' underwhelmed reaction to DQ getting in I can tell you absolutely nobody will recognize Reimu

You’re really dense, you know that? Reggie was employed when he made those statements, he’d be in the know. Just because he left doesn’t change anything.

I legit want to see Doomguy and Dante though.

I'm sorry user, the chickenbones tell me she's in.

it *does* change everything. because now that he isn't there anymore, we can't trust his previous statements.

just because you want to trust Daddy Reggie doesn't mean his word is gospel, user.

Elder Scrolls Blades is a port of an already existing phone game, yeah obviously nobody would give a shit. But that second point is interesting, about him talking about Nintendo fans in particular. It could just be version exclusive content, however. What was the context there?

Also, Banjo’s not Microsofts focus any more, and he still got in.

Fortune telling is for pagans and that is NOT allowed

yeah I dont know why the retards who make these images think people are just pretending to like these characters

Okay you’re either trolling or literally actually retarded.

I think with DQ getting in we can probably count out all magic swordsmen for the rest of the pass. That means no Chosen Undead, no Dragonborn

It's going to be Dante and KOS-MOS
Dante is almost guaranteed and KOS-MOS has had a good chance since sm4sh, which only increased with Ultimate.

Attached: New Smash DLC.png (1200x675, 1.04M)

Peter Hines got an interview on the Nintendo Power podcast.

Snake is obviously the exception to the rule--part of what made his inclusion so novel and goofy in the first place was that he was such a stark contrast to the aesthetic of the rest of the game. Overall, the aesthetic of the game is undeniably cartoony. Contrast it to something like Playstation All-Stars, which is a horrid mishmash of cartoony characters and gritty, realistic characters--it's what you'd end up with if you just started adding a ton of Snake-like characters. Although, Snake also fits the tone of the game well since Metal Gear is pretty goofy and Japanese-y as a whole. In contrast, I don't think Doomguy or Chosen Undead are good fits.

That being said, I don't think Dante or Ryu are outlandish, but I do agree with him that Reimu, generally speaking, fits in better with the Smash aesthetic.

Reggie was CEO of Nintendo of America, it's not like he would lie about any info surrounding DLC.

that doesn't change the result. Reimu is in, 99% my sources say

Okay, and? Doom games are coming to a Nintendo console, yeah. It makes sense he’d get on the Nintendo Power podcast.

In any case, the biggest strike against Doomguy is that no one in Japan knows Doom or gives half a shit about Doom.

Bro you made a mistake.
That dude is called "Ninja Gaiden Ninja".

doom gun designs are mostly based on toys and have been updated to scifi designs, no worse than snake using an rpg-7 or joker carrying what looks like a deagle

You heaven...!

Doom is goofy as fuck, especially the original games. The new ones might have tons of blood and rough textures, but he shoots himself through a cannon like Mario in the first level of the new game.

I'd be interested in Reimu but what's the basis of the representation? Literally no normie I talk to knows about Touhou but all of them at least know what Persona 5 and BK are, or is she this popular with Jap smashers? And at that point, isn't Arle from Puyopuyo also a strong contender?
No clue what other reps would fit if we're flat-out looking only at new series and non-indies.

I mean, sure, PSASBR was a mish-mash. But Smash has always been better with making character designs fit in. You can’t say though that stuff in Smaah doesn’t clash, for one example simple cartoon dragon Charizard and more detailed designed dragons Ridley and Rathalos are weird seen next to each other.

I'm right and you're wrong.

>Anyone besides Doom Guy and Ryu

I love Dante but he ain't getting in. Dark Souls is just stupid. And I don't even know what weebshit kawaii uguu crap that bitch is even supposed to be.

I feel like Ryu is the only likely character in the picture. He’s one of the big NES guys still left out.

I hope Dante gets his DMC5 design as well when he is finally in.

Can't happen, extremely violent games are very controversial, restricted and censored in Japan.

Touhou is an old franchise and is absolutely massive in Japan. There's a bi-annual convention dedicated entirely to it. For many years, Touhou has been the face of the doujinshi industry, which encompasses the amateur production of video games, music, comics and anime. Indies wouldn't be a thing in Japan if Touhou didn't popularize doujinshi. I don't know if Touhou deserves to be in Smash, but it does represent a huge part of the Japanese gaming industry.

Yeah it's not like a character that literally tortures her enemies is already in smash

I literally only see people asking for Touhou if they are either weebs or Japanese, but given that was the same for DQ, the only thing I'm curious is what connection Touhou has with Nintendo that seals the deal. Every char so far has had some connection, even Shillsona thanks to Persona Q/Q2.
Mind you I don't even care who gets in at this point, I only care for Nintendo reps and they are 100% not getting in anymore, I'm just curious what the arguments are in favor of Reimu instead of say, Agumon / a digimon rep or Arle / a Puyo rep

You're close to the actual reason but it's actually because Doom is very niche in Japan. Doom itself has Japanese releases of course.

It says DreamWorks

DQ is niche in the US, didn't stop them

Thanks but that still leaves my question what the connection is with Nintendo. We've seen great potential reps delegated to being spirits/trophies/assists before (e.g. Rayman).

Not to the extent that Doom is niche

Listen, I love Guilty Gear. But there’s no chance of it getting into Smash. Can’t you go post in the general thread or something?

Nintendo connection doesn't matter anymore.
Still, multiple fanmade games have appeared on the Switch and an official fighting game is heading there too.

Yeah, but Nintendo cares more about Japan than America. Something being niche over here doesn’t matter as much as it being niche over in Japan.

The Japanese release of Doom was uncensored tho.

Nothing against Doomguy, but the implications of a japanese game introducing a massive character/franchise from there that is niche in the US as a guest are very different to introducing a western popular franchise that's niche in Japan.
Talking about third party only of course, Punch Out is far more popular in the west than it is in Japan yet Little Mac is still there, but in the other hand, there's characters that weren't even present in the west at the time of their introduction.

But isn't it /fun/ to consider some outlandish characters?

If anyone's interested in checking out the Touhou series, I recommend trying out the games. All the official ones are available here.
pastebin.com/kg6X8Mnr
EoSD, PCB and IN are the usual recommended starting points.

Doom is a niche cult phenomenon.
DWANGO (an online service that debuted with Doom and was mostly used to play it) died last in Japan. The original Doom also became freeware to an extent so its actual sales are a mystery. Finally there’s things like the Jap Community Project megawad.

He’s still in my most wanted regardless tho.

Why do people think that Doomfabs think he’s 100% in? They always went ”oh cool” whenever he showed up in a leak, and never held their breath for him. It’s pretty much the same now, just some more people. Maybe a bit more wishful too, but the majority of us only think it’s a possibility and nothing else.

The only ones I'm rooting for are Doomguy and Reimu. They're pretty much the only characters that can redeem the fighters pass for me.

>Plenty of moveset potential
>Microsoft and Nintendo are buddy buddy now

Points against Steve
>Microsoft can’t get two reps in the same game!
Capcom got two in Smash 4, though one was DLC, yeah. And I think Banjo can be seen as more of a golden age Rare rep (their trailer was one big Rare reference), while Steve can be Microsoft/Mojang. Plus, I think an exception can be made for the star of THE biggest game ever.
>He’s got no personality! He barely has a name!
Well, the DQ heroes don’t have a name. They’re so interchangeable, they literally just interchange them. Same with Villager, really.
>How would they animate him?
If they can make Game and Watch work, they can make Steve work.
>I don’t like Minecraft! The fanbase is cringe and Steveposters are annoying and unfunny!
Irrelevant. Yeah, the fanbase is cringe, but it’s not any worse than the Sonic fanbase. And Steveposters are annoying and unfunny, I agree, but that can’t really affect the game.

Because rosterfags have conflated popular with likely and have been throwing him into their predictions.

If Reimu gets in Smashfags will get their smelly paws into the franchise while only playing Tasofro games at most.
Do you people really want this.

Attached: 1554716786380.png (1980x1114, 1.93M)

It may be a niche cult phenomenon in Japan, but it can't be understated how much Doom impacted gaming worldwide. Doomguy is an icon, and would fit into Smash.

I really hope he's in, and think his chances are good, but I can't say anything for sure until the last 2 fighters are revealed. Even if he isn't in, I'm sure the other fighters will be fun to play.

>>Still avoid the actual point
What point? You haven't refuted Reimu having connections to nintendo through her appearance on the switch.

Doom guy is a literal who more so than Slyro in Japan. Of all Doom games released in Japan, the total sales is about 30k.

I don’t know why, but I just don’t see Crash or Spyro getting in. Their franchises are just way too spotty. They’ve both had a return now, but I doubt it’ll last long.

If there is any Microsoft Rep getting in after Banjo, it's the character that allowed the console to be a success. I wouldn't even count on being the third MS DLC if they even get to have one.

Attached: Samus_Master_Chief2.jpg (676x874, 602K)

>what the connection is with Nintendo.
Smash has ascended to "video games: the fighting game" at this point. Indies are pretty important to Nintendo, providing content to fill their libraries and smaller companies who don't have a horse on the realism race. Touhou isn't the only franchise that could work as a representative of Indies in general but it does stand out for being so old and influential. Reimu even doubles as a shmup rep, which has been strangely absent considering how Sakurai likes shmups.

>If they can make Game and Watch work, they can make Steve work
Game and Watch has the luxury of being the first game Nintendo ever made. There's no excuse for Minecraft's dogshit animations other than the fact that the character does not matter, and it's only the world, and personalizing it like a virtual Lego toybox that is interesting. You'll get your Steve Mii costume when Banjo is added and you'll like it. Steve also isn't even in the new Minecraft Dungeons game

The only thing of value in the Touhou community is Japanese anyway.

The needless insult. It wasn't my intention to refute Reimu's potential to be in in the first place, I don't care who get's the 4th and 5th spots since all the ones I'd want to be in are immensely unrealistic or lack interesting moveset potentials. If you get Reimu, good for you guys, I'm happy for ya. I was merely curious what the reasoning was, not everyone follows Nipponnews and Yea Forums smash threads 24/7.

The original was freeware tho

Leon is interchangeable with Jill/Claire

Honestly, if DG doesn't make it, I could hope for Chief. Doom may have popularized FPS, but Halo modernized it.

Smash wasn’t initially about celebrating video games. It was about celebrating Nintendo, specifically. It’s still a Nintendo fighter imo and I don’t think it should strat too far from that.

Whats the point when the nips aint buying the new shit

Japan actively hates the Halo series. And Japan comes first, sad to say. Love Chief, but he’s never getting in.

They really don't, it has a cult following and is one of the more popular Xbox games (not counting indie stuff they own) and Halo 3 was at least able to top Japanese sales charts when it released. And if Japan came first we wouldn't have Ridley.

Villager doesn’t matter, he’s just the customizable player character the player projects on while playing the game. Same with several other Smash characters.

Sakurai usually creates characters in a way that they represent their home series. Yes, Steve is ultimately not a character who “matters,” but that doesn’t mean he can’t be used to represent Minecraft, in the same way Villager represents Animal Crossing.

Yeah, I guess. At least 東方@ふたば will be around no matter what.

Not sure about that one.

It’s one of the more popular xbox games in a region where the xbox sells very, very poorly. So, that’s not saying much.

And yeah, Japan absolutely comes first. Ever wonder why we got Ridley and K. Rool five fucking games in?

Yeah, it managed to top Japanese sales charts in a region where the Xbox doesn't sell well. Plus it was on the 360 which actually sold better than normal.

And you don't think in this same game where the US has gotten pandered to that we wouldn't get a character that panders to the US.

Really any Soulsbourne rep would be fun. It’s a niche, quality little series that’s got a shit ton of love and praise, and that’s something you just don’t see that much anymore.

If your most wanted wouldn't bring music as good as the Ace Attorney games they don't deserve to get in.

Villager still gets more characterization than any MC avatar. One of the most important aspects of the series is the relationships you form with the other villagers in your town, which wouldn't be possible if there was no personality on your end. You choose how to respond to villagers questions, sure, but even then you're choices are limited to what the game gives you. Every activity you perform is animated to express the simple joy of fishing or catching bugs or getting stung by bees. The MC avatar has none of this. It is effectively a tool with which to interface with the world, which is the impressive part of MC

I looked into that “topping the charts” thing. I don’t know if you know the context or not, but it’s pretty pitiful.

>Could this be Microsoft's big turnaround in Japan? No. But Halo 3 did, improbably, land at the top of the Media Create sales charts for this week. Mostly because nothing else of note was released, and its strongest competition was continued sales of Crisis Core and Pokemon.
It only moved 59,000 units in total. That’s pretty fucking bad lol. And yeah, this game pandered to America a fair bit, but Master Chief... I just don’t see them going that far. Especially with a Microsoft rep already in the game.

To be fair, Joker was never a highly demanded character either and he still got in. I doubt that a character being popular or not with rosterfags matters more than their feats, but I can see Reimu (not Doomguy) not being at the top of the priority list when it comes to DLC options.

You’ve really done nothing to disprove my point. The world of Animal Crossing is what’s impressive, not the amazingly written character of Villager. Same thing with Steve and the MC overworld.

Plus, you’re focusing on one singular thing, and not looking at any other reasoning.

I mean in a realistic sense. Echoes are for newcomers and not DLC, and it's not like Curly and Edgeworth have different heights from their counterparts.

Joker got in because Sakurai loves good UI and P5 has the best UI of any game I've ever seen. You can see from the victory screen and the final smash how much Sakurai loves P5's aesthetic

I wanted Doom Guy since the ballot.
I could really go for any of those other characters. But I guess I'm most interested in what Reimu could bring to the table.
If anyone has any moveset images for Reimu, I'd love to see them, I don't know much about Touhou but I am interested in how she could play.

I'm not saying that Villager is the end-all-be-all of video game characterization but my argument is that Villager DOES have characterization, whereas Steve does not have any

No that was PP already

Not even a stevefag, and I don't disagree with you. I'm just pointing out how much character was given to PP and G&W through Smash, and how it's not impossible to do the same with Steve.

Not that I think he'll make it in, I have little faith in that regard, but I think it's possible to give him character should he be a newcomer.

Ryu Hayabusa and Nightmare so the Sword Jokes will never end

Ryu Hayabusa and the Dragonborn

This fag has never played the OG Doom for sure. It’s far less violent than Bayonetta.

Ryu Hayabusa and WonderRed because we need those incredible levels of Nippon style

Who says there can’t be two wildcards?

Ryu Hayabusa and Mike Jones so we can blast to the past and play games that don't such ass

Ryu Hayabusa and an SNK dude so we can bring back attitude

I can tell you who will be in the game with these simple hints

>The first character would have had their debut game on an early gen Nintendo console (Nes, Snes, N64, GB/A)

>The second character is Ryu Hayabusa

>Klonoa
Based/10
So many stage possibilites to use from the first two games

So Ryu Hayabusa and Ryu Hayabusa?

Cloud is the Sony rep, needs SNK to complete the console group since Konami owns Hudson and PC Engine

I don’t really want either, but I’d prefer MC because at least he’s a character with a personality and a story. And a name. With Doomguy it was clear that the character doesn’t matter at all.

I don't doubt that whoever gets in will get the tender love and care that all Smash characters get that makes them feel great to play as. But Minecraft getting in doesn't seem like a big deal or that exciting at all, it's the village bicycle and everyone has had a ride with it

Is your only experience with the franchise Brutal Doom or something? Doom's gore has never been on Mortal Kombat's level. Even in the newer Doom titles the games' director pushes for most of the gore to be intentionally unrealistic to maintain that comic book-esque charm.

Yes and they will also be replacing dark pit with a third Ryu Hayabusa

My fellow, it's time to let go.

I love how there are zero (0) legitimate points against Steve.

I wish Reimu, but I'm not delusional or retarded enough to think she would ever appear in a nintendo videogame.
At the very most in a 0.001% chance as an assist trophy, but lets be real she is just not popular enough. You might think otherwise but no matter the number of otakus that are in a niche, touhou is still a fucking niche of otakus

There are tons of characters that were spirited or otherwise put into the game who now have no shot. The only logical assumption at this point is all characters in the fighter pass will be characters with no spirit, or possibly characters who have never even appeared at all which is a horrible shame considering even if we only consider the bipedal assist trophies and Poké Ball Pokémon that could actually be fighters there's tons of untapped potential

I'd be most happy with Leon, but Jill and Chris would be good too. Hell, pretty much every Capcom character they could add would be awesome especially Ammy and Phoenix. Now that The Witcher 3 is coming to Switch, I'd also love him as the last DLC

Duck Hunt only loosely fits the FPS connotation, it has more in common with a rail shooter than anything like Wolfenstein.

First I'm gonna say that I don't believe this supposed leaker at all. But just for fun I'm still gonna argue this.

While touhou is mainly a bullethell game, it also has official fighting games.
The latest one, AoCF, is coming to the Switch, so it's not impossible that he might have seen Reimu in that game and assumed she is originally from that game.
Though I don't know how in the fuck he couldn't have recognized a character yet could tell that they are from a fighting game.

Or it proves that effective body language and passing mentions of previous things you've done are greater at building character than a poorly thought out character arc.

There is no difference between a rail shooter and an FPS except the ability to control movement which is negligible as that is not the main mechanic it is testing.

Shmups usually see you flying through an area, dodging projectiles and shooting things that are shooting you. That is literally all you do in Starfox

I hate fucking brainlet takes like "Starfox isn't a shoot em up" just to be persnickety.

Just because it isn't a bullet hell doesn't mean it isn't a shoot em up.

tell me how that is a flawed argument and I'll fuck off. just saying "durr but dats booshit" is not an argument

>There is no difference between a rail shooter and an FPS except the ability to control movement which is negligible as that is not the main mechanic it is testing.
Too bad that is the exact difference between rail shooters and FPS, in FPS you have total control over where your character looks, goes and shoots. On rails, you don't.

Duck Hunt is apparently a Light Gun Shooter (which uses peripherals) according to wikipedia.
Star Fox is more of a rail shooter, and admittedly an STG too, if we're going by wikipedia again.

Star fox is a Rail shooter with shmup aspects. When people generally think of shmups, they think of 2d top-down or side view autoscrolling games.

There's a reason why FPS was often referred to as "Doom-clone", and that's because it and Wolfenstein codified it into a genre. If your shooter game doesn't have movement and shooting somewhat likened to those two, then it's not an FPS.

because you don't know the criteria for DLC, retard, it's that easy. you're just assuming shit and taking it as fact. for years everyone has been trying to come up with the qualifications for being a newcomer in smash only to be btfo by sakurai time and time again. you fucking never learn.

Here's the criteria for first person shooters
>Are you in first person and shooting

Here's the criteria for a shoot em up
>Do you shoot em up?

>NO BUT STARFOX IS ACTUALLY A RAIL SHOOTER BECAUSE YOU GO THROUGH A SET COURSE
By that logic so is Touhou.

>According to wikipedia
Unbelievable brainlet

>A genre is completely different if you swap to 3D
Literal youtuber takes.

>here's my made-up criteria for first-person shooters
Yeah, I'm sure a genre that was initially called Doom-clone would be as loose as possible.
Listen, if it can't be likened to Doom and Wolf 3D on at least a base level, then it's not an FPS.

>A genre is completely different if you swap to 3D
But it is you dumbass. The extra dimension makes a completely different game and allows for completely different mechanics.

Y'all the kind of fucks who think WRPG and JRPGs are different kinds of games too just cause they were made in a different country. Shut up already

>Y'all

Yeah, we should just call every kind of game a "game" since they're all games and how they play doesn't matter.

It's almost as if there are many different types of game genres that are distinctive enough to be further classified into their own genres

I'm sure every rail shooter features rails and tracks too.
Nobody that's a fan of FPS games would call Duck Hunt an FPS.

I already do, you should do the same.

I think Steve has a good shot. There's clearly plenty of people that like him, and his game is very popular worldwide. I don't understand why him not being announced at E3 was seen as a death sentence.

>he has nothing to say
Have a nice day then.

there are literally no sources that prove that dealing with disney is a hard thing. it's all baseless rumors.

Because for some reason people think that if a company already has a rep in then it's impossible for them to have another one.

He said it would be characters new to the series. Translation: no veterans
>Why would he say that
Not everyone knows that everyone is here, or at least at the time. It's just a way to tell people they won't have to pay for Mewtwo again. He's just hyping it up because it was his job

Most of the people claiming Steve’s chances to be dead are saying that because “no, Microsoft can’t have 2 reps!” Even though Banjo is really a rep for classic Rare more than anything else

Like when I think XBox I don’t think “Banjo Kazooie.” I think Halo and Gears of War. In any case, Capcom got 2 reps back in Smash 4, and if you want to stretch it Konami also got 2 extra reps on top of Snake in Ultimate.

>I don't like it when people want two characters who have been Yea Forums memes for a decade and a half
Where do you think you are?

In any case if Sora was to be in the game, he’d barely be Sora if he couldn’t have Donald and Goofy. And I really don’t see that happening

While it's not necessarily wrong to say that rail shooters are a subgenre of shmups as a whole, I think the 3D perspective and difference in free maneuverability relative to enemy fire or formations are big enough distinctions that they're probably not what people are referring to when they say want shmup representation. Things like Gradius or Radiant Silvergun arguably color the genre image a lot more than say, Panzer Dragoon.

What I want: Reimu and Dante.
What I expect: Fire Emblem protagonists.

Sadly, we probably are getting a FE three houses character.

>he’d barely be Sora if he couldn’t have Donald and Goofy.

he doesn't need donald and goofy to be his own character, that's bullshit.

In that case, couldn't the last slot be green or yellow?

Doomguy has more personality than Master Chief despite never talking.

I just want Doomguy. Anyone else would be a bonus at this point (like B&K). I used to think he had no chance whatsoever, but now he actually seems somewhat likely. It's weird.

Three Houses will be out for months before the next character is revealed.

Reimu is from a bullet hell game. We literally never had a bullet hell game character in smash. Shut the fuck up. I don't even want Reimu in smash.

DLC promotion. Sakurai will find some way to stuff in more FE characters

You've taken every piece of low tier bait this thread has had to offer because of an obsessive compulsion to categorise just to fit the very narrow limitations of an.

Also the term you're looking for is gallery shooter. Since "rail" shooter refers to being on a set track that you follow and progress through a story or sequence to complete while Gallery shooters are completely randomised within each interaction of gameplay which is why they are seen more as arcade games than directed experiences.

"I am interested in seeing who guys think would be good candidates of famous games from these specific genres."
"No we are going to reply to you and post the same characters that are posted in every roster thread."
"Why don't you just make your own post instead of replying to mine?"
"Because everybody posts them."

I get that my original post may have seemed open ended to post other genres which aren't represented but in all honesty I just wanted to see what Rhythm game characters people think would work in Smash since Nintendo doesn't have the most famous choices.

Master Chief in Halo's 1-3 has a pretty consistant peronality, despite being silent a lot. He can be snarky and have some banter with Cortana, but he also doesn't over do it to break from the idea that he is a soldier raised for war. If we are really going to take Doomguy shooting himself out of a cannon as proof of his personality, Master Chief literally jumped from a ship in outer space onto earth.

>durrr popular picks bad

>People arguing that reimu should get in because she's a railshooter

We all know Saki should get in centuries before her because both Treasure and Sin and Punishment are more based than the whole Touhou series combined

Yes but that's a completely different argument. You're essentially agreeing with my point.

>Puzzle
Arle.
>Rhythm
Miku, Elite Beat Agents/Ouendan, Don-chan, maybe Commander Video?

>Touhou
>railshooter
Wha?

>This thing should objectively get in before that thing because of my opinion

Attached: english-wtf.png (678x475, 427K)

Saki isn't the face of the indie scene in Japan. Also Sin and Punishment didn't drive the industry forward by sparking the emergence of self-published and amateur game development, and neither does it have a biannual convention dedicated to it.

I was never shitting on Chief's personality, but Doomguy has plenty of personality. He's righteous, but people wouldn't know that if they haven't played his game.
There are small details that build a lot to his character, like e.g in the intro of Doom 2016 he goes into an elevator. Has Samuel Hayden talk to him, guy says he did this in humanity's best interests and it was worth the risk, Doomguy looks at the corpse of a guy in the elevator, smacks the screen to bits and the game properly starts.
He's got plenty of personality, and it's displayed mostly through body language. Thing is tho, the game isn't supposed to revolve around him. Doom lore and Doomguy are things in the games that add character to it all, but it's only there if you really feel like caring about it and not really integral.

NOT EVEN THE FUCKING AUTHOR LIKES YOU GUYS AND HIRED A SCAT ARTIST TO WRITE OFFICIAL MATERIAL JUST TO MAKE FUN OF YOU

But the epilogues were good

On paper yeah, but the thing is Duck Hunt and a game like Doom are completely different. In Duck Hunt you point at the screen and shoot the ducks. In Doom and other FPS games you move through a level, fight with different types of enemies, collect ammo and health and use a variety of weapons. You can't say Duck Hunt is accurate of the entire genre.

Not necessarily predictions, if Hornet didn't make that obvious

Cave Story is not technically an indie anymore either. Also add note to Shantae for being a spirit too while you're at it.

>VIABLE BASED ON HOW EASY IT IS FOR NINTENDO TO ACQUIRE THE LICENSES NEEDED FOR A CHARACTER

Steve should really be here, they’ve already got Microsoft stuff in the game.

Thinking about it, Minecraft should be in the Nintendo history category too. It’s been on more/as many Nintendo consoles than those other games, if memory serves.

Sakurai is a hack for snubbing shovel and black knight then adding more anime swordsman.
Id be fine with nightmare or male monster hunter in rathalos armor too.
We just need a knight archetype character.
Also doomguy cause hes the father of the unrepped fps genre

Reimu was NEVER even rumored. Stop showhorning her on your DLC expectations, even fucking Shantae has better chances.

DoomgGuy, Ryu and Chosen Undead have good chances.

It's not even a theory, it's just 2 colors that I used for the template with the idea that people who used it would change the hues.

Based and redpilled

Shantae is already a spirit bro. And Shantae is microscopic compared to how huge Touhou is. The fact that you think Doomguy has "good chance" tells me everything I need to know about your opinions.

>Inb4 I-It doesn't count

The only ones that make the most sense are Doom Slayer and Ryu. They're both very iconic and staples of video game history.

Wonder Red without all the other Wonderful Ones would be retarded.

I'm older than you are and you're a massive faggot, zoomer.

This. If masterchief or doom guy get in, it will be so sad

Doomguy and masterchief would be just as boring as fireemblem shit.

Pocky and Rocky would be cool I guess but Natsume doesn't even really exist as a company anymore

You see, the difference is that there arent 87 guys with guns in Smash already.
