Now that it's confirmed the final reps will come from Namco, Tecmo & or Capcom. Who do you think is getting in next?

Literally no reason for him not to be in.
Benjamin Hall

Levi Parker
>muh rules
lol
Brayden Parker
> Seething this bad
Cope more, Sega, Square, Capcom, Konami all have at least two reps. Tecmo develops Fire Emblem and doesn't have one, and Namco still needs another one
Levi Harris
There's literally not a single argument you rulefags can make for Tecmo & Namco not getting a rep
Jack Allen
steve. too big to ignore minecraft at this point. company diversity is a fan rule
Andrew Ross
> Stevefags still seething & crying after getting BTFO'd by Banjo
Hunter Cruz
>Namco doesn't want a rep
Got a source for that?
Jason Jenkins
We can though: they simply don't see the need for it.
Why else would the developer of the game skip adding a rep besides pacman in both 4's dlc and ultimate's base roster?
Charles Murphy
Please be chosen undead and chun li
Jaxon Rivera
His ass, all we have is speculation. And seeing as Namco is the only company without 2 characters, they are obviously the most likely rep at this point
Hudson Sanchez
i’m gonna predict banjo will bring some Rare content. maybe the “Raring to go” tagline suggests that. nobody’s gonna complain if microsoft goes from 0->2 fighters. not to mention BK and minecraft are totally different games. if you wanna keep believing that it’s not possible go ahead
Bentley Reed
Because it makes them more money putting them as DLC instead. Heiechi was originally planned for Smash 4 DLC, but Sakurai couldn't figure out how to make his moveset work. Wouldn't surprise me if he's the next newcomer
Benjamin Adams
People said this in smash 4 too and look how that turned out
Carson Smith
> Literal Who Souls
You are retarded if you think it's going to be anything except a Tekken character
Josiah Walker
Imagine Lu Bu being in Smash
Jack Davis
Who is this lu bu you speak of?
Owen Barnes
>Patternfagging
>Assuming Bamco is obliged to get a character just because they worked on the game
If it was mandatory, why is Pac-Man still the only Bamco character in the base roster?
Where was the Bamco character during 4's DLC?
Now before you bring up costume theory, remember this
The Virtua Fighter costumes weren't included with Joker's release
If they were to be rereleased anyways, this whole costume theory shit goes down
Leo Jones
>Namco
Yes
>Tecmo
What reason does anyone have to think they will get anything
>Capcom
Yeah, sure. We're gonna get a 4th Capcom character.
Ian Price
Nigga his VA is literally dead
Owen Nelson
techmo didn't talk with nintendo about dlc, they're out
Owen Cooper
> Sakurai considered adding him as the Namco representative instead of Pac-Man. He was excluded because Sakurai couldn't think of a good way to implement him
Lincoln Campbell
>Tekken
Wow, less popular street fighter. Great choice. It's going to be chosen undead.
Carson Anderson
>Souls
Blake Green
Considering they called the mii fighter dlc Round 1 (in a similar manner to Smash 4's Wave X) i'm totally expecting them to go the smash 4 route of just haphazardly dumping mii costumes with no rhyme or reason
Expect virtua fighter in like round 2/3
Camden Perry
None of them make sense
Colton Moore
heihachi
Robert Harris
And considering he skipped both smash 4 dlc and ult base, they still have no idea how to make it work
Evan Davis
Tekken sold of 70 million. Dark Souls 1 barely sold 2 million
Bentley Fisher
>i'm totally expecting them to go the smash 4 route of just haphazardly dumping mii costumes with no rhyme or reason
Same
I'm expecting them to reveal brand new third party costumes as well as rehashing the old ones further making costume theory absolutely worthless
Benjamin Bailey
He's in Pac-man's taunt. He's literally been relegated to taunt cameo.
Andrew Rogers
here's your new dlc character bro
Xavier Roberts
>Another fucking Crapcom character
Sakurai really is a naive cuck isn't he?
Caleb Morris
It's going to be Jill Valentine, Resident Evil is so fucking iconic & Nintendo absolutely loves it. It's inevitable that it gets a rep
Ryder Bell
Common sense
>didn't care to add a character last time
>Tekken and Tales of are disqualified for being in the game previously
>Sakurais comment about Heihachi means no 3d based fighter which eliminates SolCal also
>all their other ips are dead or irrelevant
>Dark Souls doesn't even fucking count and that's entirely FromSoft
Alexander Martin
Sakurai has no input in the DLC you fucking idiot. Nintendo is completely overruling him & has full control on who gets added into the game. This is solely based on what Nintendo themselves deem iconic
Levi Nelson
they are in.
Kevin James
You're getting Leon or Chris before Capcom remotely thinks about Jill
Sebastian Moore
This.
Angel Wilson
Sakurai still calls the final shots on if he can make them a fighter or not
What we don't know is if it was a full list or if it was literally just 5 characters Nintendo picked
Ayden Long
I could honestly see another DQ scenario with Chris/Leon. Potentially Jill as well but I think it'd be weird for her to be an alt and use the same animations as those two. Resi does seem like a series that's due Smash representation.
I'm still hoping for Travis even though I think he's a never ever I got 3/4 of mine so far so I no longer care, I'm already perfectly content
John Williams
No, it's gonna be nemesis.
Angel Cruz
>all their other ips are dead or irrelevant
you fags never learn.
Thomas White
SUEZO IS IN BROS!!
Dylan Watson
Hey does anyone have the picture of the original 12 in their original styles? The one with the game and watch luigi.
Thomas Foster
Also that, yeah
would it be worse or better than getting spirited?
Jaxon Nguyen
Are you fucking retarded?
shantae was just confirmed
Mason Scott
Landon Wood
Excuse me, you're forgetting the 3 Houses rep.
Michael Richardson
Kill yourself, nothing has been confirmed.
Camden Baker
I mean with how the SF characters were handled, I feel like Heihachi would have definitely been a spirit fight if he was considered at all in regards to representation. I think the Mii outfit returning is simply the best result here, because I'd rather he just be acknowledged than have an awkward execution. Last thing you want is PSASBR Heihachi
Adrian Davis
keep crying faggot
your tears are the most delicious elixir I could ever taste
Anthony Torres
>Heihachi
Christian Adams

Connor Price

Sebastian Cox

Isaiah Morales
What was wrong with PSASBR Heihachi? Asking because I don't know enough about his appearance in that game.
Jordan Carter
You mean the cross on the window of her lighthouse that's been there all the time?
Joseph Martinez
Oh crap, he's in !
Jaxon Edwards
>not even facing the right way
>thinking a fucking window confirms shit when it has been this way since forever
LITERALLY grasping for straws
Owen Rogers
Ryu Haybusa and Dante/Leon
Lucas Kelly
HE'S IN
Angel Rogers
You're a moron if you don't think he's getting in.
Alexander Morris
He throws bowling pins and beach balls as a reference to tekken bowl
>Wave dash as a command into other moves in some attempt of depth
>Weird counter mechanic trying to represent his tekken specials
>General stiff movement because his techniques don't suit a platform fighter
Think how stiff some of Ryu and Ken's moves are and amplify it by 10.
Nolan Allen
I can't believe Wayfoward is this desperate for attention
Leo Howard
Rock on dude, I don't play Digimon but I think it'd be cool to see an official crossover between it and Pokemon
Sebastian Turner
>Pointing the wrong way
It's a fake smash ball :^)
Jackson Morales
Source on these being the only candidates for dlc representation?
Grayson Cooper
fallacy
it was symmetric, now it's been reshaped to match the smash logo
players built walls to make it look like that, not official
there's a bunch of crosses in the middle, if it were the smash logo it would be clean
they weren't allowed to explicitly use the smash logo so they gave us a hint
Evan Campbell
He is in.
Joseph Hughes
I'm actually glad this has caused you pathetic Shantaefags to become do delusional once again. It will be so precious seeing you cry and seethe when you get btfo for the fucking third time.
Ryan Sullivan
user, I’d like Agumon in too, but don’t use him as a shitposting outlet, it attracts retards.
Alexander Ramirez
>He throws bowling pins and beach balls as a reference to tekken bowl
>look it up
>it's real
Holy shit, how did namco see that and say "yeah that's ok"
Blake Williams
And why are they "giving us a hint"?
Colton Allen
this
Adrian Robinson
Tecmo literally only has Pac-Man, they aren't getting another rep unless Monolith gets Nintendo to add kosmos
Aiden Martinez
to build up hype for her fighter pass announcement and give new fans time to catch up with the series
Benjamin Myers
>Every direct has hinted to the next one
>Simon/K.Rool direct had furniture from the Mayor's Office in it
>Sakurai was sat at a counter similar to the coffee shop in P5 in the last Smash direct
>There's a fake smash ball in his announcement announcement
Oh shit it's real
There's no fucking way though
>Get the go-ahead at least six months ago for that from Nintendo so it can be implemented into their animated opening
They were probably just not giving a shit.
Dylan Hill
Not to mention every time they start up that game they're gonna see it and be reminded they fell for a fucking window
Kevin Edwards
I think I must be the only one who finds any Microsoft inclusion, regardless of who it is, to not belong.
James Cruz
He still is a highly likely candidate right now though.
Ian Sullivan
One of the All-Stars biggest issues with its combat is that the developers struggle fitting as much shit as possible for the moveset
Its why Nathan Drake has crumbling floor attack
Easton Hernandez
Shantae 5 wouldn't be coming to Switch if that were the case.
Alexander Bailey
You do know letting Trigger animators be aware of a Smash reveal will only risk making her inclusion be leaked right?
You do know Piranha Plant didn't have a spirit until it became DLC right?
You do realize that if she was DLC, they would've saved her spirit for release right?
William Martin
The fake Smash ball looks like this. Not the same as the window.
Samuel Mitchell
>Shantae 5 wouldn't be coming to Switch if a window looks like a window
What the FUCK did he mean by this
Elijah Johnson
and just who is confirming that? Your ass?
Jordan Richardson
Stop it, just accept it, they made Shantae a spirit, meaning Shantae is in the game, but DLC characters are for characters who's IP NEVER took a step in Smash Ultimate. And no, WayForward making a Smash Ball reference doesn't mean she's going to be a fighter, because only Nintendo and Sakurai decice who should make it and they decided that Shantae shoulbe a spirit.
Brandon Wilson
if tecmo isn't Suezo, Ryu Hayabusa or Thurman Thomas I will riot.
Juan Torres
Literally the only person it works for is Sackboy and maybe Ratchet
>Even with all the weapons Jak has, they use a precursor vent for a super attack for some reason
>Big Daddy floods the arena because how do we show Rapture is underwater
What happened to the argument that Shantae originated on Nintendo and has always been on its platforms? Shantaefags can't keep up with themselves can they
Chase Davis
Why do retards on this board say something is “confirmed” or “basically confirmed” without any fucking source to back it up?
Samuel Stewart
>spirit
see
Carter Collins
You do know Trigger animators could've been told to make it that way to be stylish to keep them fooled
You do know your made up rules mean shit
You do realize that many fighters have spirits
Owen Young
Kayden Morgan
>You do realize that many fighters have spirits
But there's always a differentiation between them
There's Mario and Mario (Tennis) but no two spirits are just called Mario
Ian Torres
how many times do we have to tell you fuckers
Fighter Spirits are different than normal Spirits
Ethan Fisher
No character who is playable has that exact incarnation of them as a spirit.
Colton Ramirez
frankly i think there should be a nintendo vs capcom game because i just want like. 10 different capcom reps on top of the two and a half we have now
Ryan Allen
Stage 1: Denial
Parker Jones
I definitely think it's Capcom, given that 4 had a base game character and a DLC character. My top 3 guesses would be Leon, Dante, and Phoenix.
Hunter Myers
because it's SOOOOOO hard to add "(Half Genie Hero)" to her spirit name on the update that adds her as a playable character, stop making up rules because it triggers you that she got in and not whatever irrelevant shit you wanted
Samuel Fisher
It's unhealthy to be doing all these mental gymnastics
Kevin Smith
Sony vs Capcom would be great too. Hell even Microsoft vs Capcom would work. Capcom needs to come up with something, hopefully with better visuals than MvCI.
Henry Bailey
>You do realize that many fighters have spirits
PFFFFRR AH AH AH.
You do KNOW, that the spirits of the fighters are called ''Spirit FIGHTER'', and Shantae is just a spirit ?
Joseph Sullivan
how are you motherfuckers still in denial? All you’re getting a dinky throw away PNG in a mode no one has played since launch. Weren’t even big enough to get an assist. it’s fuckin pathetic

Easily makes the most sense, and with that new Digimon game coming to Switch...looks like its time for an old rivalry to be settled once and for all.
Isaiah Smith
Again
If she was DLC, why wouldn't they just save her spirit for her release like Plant
Why did Matt Bozon went out of his way to try and start a hashtag to get people to support her inclusion as DLC when literally days later Sakurai announced the DLC was already finalized
She's a consolation prize
Literally one of the last spirits added to the game
Take it and be silent
Hunter Moore

*shrugs* Namco owns Digimon brand, right? Odds are Agumon stands the best chance as another Namco rep over a Tales rep any day.
Matthew Harris
Combination of both
Henry Williams
Also the factor that 1999 is the 20th anniversary of Digimon World 1 and Adventure. Along with anniversary Digivices at Gamestops.
And the factor that the DQ guys represent the "Enix" part of Square Enix so there needs to be a rep for the "Bandai" part of Namco Bandai.

Chase Butler
But why would they ? They made HER A SPIRIT, we are not making up rules, its just common sense, why would devs be bothered to make a SPIRIT, if they are gonna make it fighter next ? Again, Shantae IP is in the game due to her spirit, but DLCs are only IP who never appeared on Smash.
DoomGuy, Cash, Master Chief, Kiyu, Chosen Undead and Wright ? More like having their chances to be in Smash !
Erdrick, K.Rool, Ridley and Banjo ? More like already in !
Shantea ? More like Spirited Away !

you act like them having 3 characters already in means anything. Capcom has plenty of characters to pick from, from Street Fighter, to Megaman as a whole, to Monster Hunter generic Hunter, to Devil May Cry, or even Resident Evil. Another Capcom rep would be perfectly a-okay so long as its not from Street Fighter or Classic Megaman.

Smash 4 is completely different from Ultimate.
it's clear that Smash 4's DLC was mostly made up as they went along with not much a long term plan. Ultimate's DLC on the other hand has clearly been planned out ahead of time. Ryu, Cloud, Corrin and Bayonetta didn't even get full on CG trailers like Hero and Banjo's trailers have.
Andrew Hall
So are there any nice characterfags?

None of the rules were made up, fucking cope more. Nintendo is picking all of the DLC, Sakurai has nothing to do with it. Which is why it contradicts his personal criteria. It's solely related to what Nintendo Japan considers a iconic part of Nintendo history

Doomguy is absolutely literal who tier, even morose than Reimu. Nobody in real life even knows what Doom is. I would know, i deal with people every single day. When i ask someone for their favorite FPS game they say Call of Duty, GoldenEye or Halo every single time. And that's just in North America, Japan cares even less about FPS games. Famitsu couldn't even get 300 people to take their survey on favorite FPS games & Overwatch ended up topping the poll anyway
Alexander Taylor
What's weird to me was Mewtwo was the early adopter's gift for Smash 4 but he still had a trophy.
In Ultimate, Piranha Plant was the early adopter's gift but he doesn't have a spirit.
Kayden Carter
Grant said he knew in February but was contacted in January
He had a feeling it was Smash related but tried to rationalize it as Banjo not being in
Also, a vlog from one of the singers does indeed confirm its Doom related and she thinks its Eternal
youtube.com
Joshua Ortiz
Not really. I don't think there's any winning really for everyone involved for online discussion to be civil at least at this point. If there's a character that people barely/didn't discuss got into Smash, people complain that people barely talked or wanted them prior to their inclusion which leads into it's own infighting. But partly because of that (and the whole making noise to get attention to your character to get them noticed and pushing them to both Nintendo and Sakurai), people will make noise for their character getting in, and that leads to people developing hostilities towards each other due to everyones own preferences, towards characters both in and out of the game, towards all the developers involved, etc. It's just not going to work out, especially now compared to before.
Daniel Bailey

Combined with Ryu being a large NES icon, it kind of makes sense. There aren't many large Japanese companies left to be repped. Really just SNK, Level 5, TK and GhM. technically they're already repped with Fatal Frame though

You mean that Touhou was a huge phenomenon in Japan, as was Doom in America ? Not a weaboo or a Reimufag but Touhou is one of the most popular japanese pc game in Japan.
>Nobody in real life even knows what Doom is
Yeah, yeah, keep being so delusional
Shantaefag. Doom is litteraly the reason why CoD, GoldenEye or Halo exist. These games are for casuals. Actual gamers know that Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem, TF2, heck, even Wolfenstein and Deus Ex are better FPS. Smash Bros isn't for casuals anymore, its a huge celebration, and following your logic means that Smash should have got Fortnite, because hey, its very popular and very casual !

To be fair, Plant is kinda special as it’s the only DLC character with a Palutena’s Guidance. Which kind of implies it was going to be in the base game, but couldn’t due to time constraints. But I generally agree with you.

Every time, that's how i know your literal who character isn't relevant. I was a normalfag growing up, nobody ever mentioned Doom once. These were the only PC games that people ever talked about. Dragon Quest is a 12 billion dollar franchise, whereas Doom has only sold 10 million at the most. Undertale when it came out was bigger than Doom has ever been, everyone in school was listening to Undertale's soundtrack. Even during the sporting events, people were playing Megalomania during the halftime shows.

Yeah and Sakurai just laughs.
But yeah, the dev time stuff all lines up perfectly. In some interviews Suda mentions that Nintendo was the one who approached him about reviving Travis because he helps appeal to western audiences. And since he was at the reveal in 2017, that means talks were most likely ongoing in 2016 which is when the dlc characters were probably being discussed
Alexander Morgan
It's just delusional waifufaggotry.
It happens with Smash game. Waifufags get themselves excited over some random female character that isn't actually likely at all and are ultimately BTFO'd in the long run. It happened with Krystal for Brawl and it happened with Ashley for Ultimate's base roster.
And it's happening again with Shantaefags for this game's DLC.

>indie gaming is entitled to a singular Smash fighter
While indies do have their own historical importance, I feel like a single rep would make sense. Think about it like this, imagine if every game franchise was a fish, the bigger the franchise, bigger the fish. Indies are like a pack of goldfish, sure you have the Touhous and Undertale that are relatively big for their kind, but multiple indies would look odd when put next to bigger franchises like Megaman and Bayonetta. Sure smash has its own share of niche picks, but Sakurai tends to add characters who bring something new, and the novelty of an indie in smash would wear off after the first character.

Sora's definitely one of those B/C-tier wants for me. He'd be cool and bring an awful lot of good stuff with him music-wise considering it's all Shimomura's work, so a lot easier to use than the FF music.
I believe the Switch version is going to be the only one with a physical release, so that might have been their deal.

I was running out of space, so here's my excuse for my song selection.
I limited pre-eosd music because literally no one plays them.

Had to decide between Sanae's theme and Gensokyo the Gods Loved and picked the latter.
Flowering Night is more known, I like Luna Dial more too.
Probably will be the case, but I thought it would be hilarious if ZUN's art would be used as spirits.

My chart proved that Doom revolutionized the FPS genre and started the Fps Golden Age, not that DoomGuy is popular. DoomGuy is certainly not popular as Master Chief but so is Banjo-Kazooie, also Microsoft took him before Chief and Steve.
Why shouldn't be ? PC played a important role in gaming, and since Smash is a huge celebration of video games, why not ?

It makes no sense to save him for DLC. Sakurai already owns the rights and even added two new baddies to the base game, why in the name of fuck would he waste a DLC slot on a character he already has the rights to who also panders to a crowd that already has reasons to own smash? No matter how you look at it, the DLC is a pretty good advertisement machine, and a limited one that could be saved for characters who cause a bigger impact.

Considering Nintendo handled the advertising and distribution in NA and EU, I wouldn't be surprised. I like NMH, but let's be honest, it doesn't sell. I imagine the ports will mostly be people double dipping.
Anthony Flores
He's certainly a more bizarre omission than Sylux, considering that he's likely held back for an MP4 promo (similar to the Partner Eevee/Pikachu)
I don't think Porky's likely, but he has a non-zero chance.
It totally would, but I wouldn't be against it. His design would fit more in with smash and if each alt was a different skin like Inkling, we could get some creative choices. It'd be fucking hilarious to watch the melt down though.
I think we might get a second pass with no stages since that'll require less development time and staff in theory. Perhaps with a few echoes or something, I dunno. The game's definitely being supported beyond 2019/early 2020 for sure though.
Parker Price
>I like NMH, but let's be honest, it doesn't sell
Considering the size of the studio, it sells pretty well and has a pretty big following from those who played it. I don't think it's a blockbuster by any means, but I'd definitely say it's on par with Bayonetta for sales reception.
Smash would also be excellent advertising for the games, although I'm not exactly sure that's necessarily a good thing.

Those were already cropping up with the release of TSA though. Those zoomer faggots at Switchforce were shitting on it not being NMHIII proper even though one host never finished NMH2 and the ither never even played it, implying they only played the garbage PS3 port.
is right. There's already a light saber item in smash and they could replaced the blood with coins the same way they swapped out Joker's final. The gore in NMH is really cartoony, moreso than Bayo
Jack Rodriguez
>Marth was gonna be in the first smash
he's basically the unofficial 13th of the original 12, dude
Cooper Gutierrez
Not even coins, they can just use the black ash from the EU/JP version of NMH1. If you implement his chips from TSA, his charge attacks and recharge mechanics, along with his wrestling moves, he's more than unique enough to stand out from the other swordsmen.
Thomas Wright
Yeah, question is if he'll have a charge mechanic and if they'd replace the animation for charging the beam katana.
Ryan Sanders
I realize most of the people here subscribe to the FE MAN BAD mentality but Fire Emblem belongs in Smash. I agree it's overrepresented but still.

I mean, there's no need really. It's not exactly that explicit, just make him slightly less hunched over. Considering that NMH didn't even get flagged for sexual content, only sexual themes I doubt it's enough for censors to be concerned with. At most it'd need tweaking like Bayonetta's wicked weaves did, since it still affects her suit.
I mean I'd honestly just have to say why not both, and beyond Witch Time I fail to see how he'd be similar really, him being a combo character would kinda be weird considering how relatively stilted he is in his games.

Too be fair most of the touhou posters mostly hoist this up explicitly so /jp/ is cleansed in a wave of fire.
Jaxson Barnes
If you add Lu Bu from Dynasty Warriors, does that make Gandhi from Civilization a valid candidate?
Landon Carter
Quote’s a great choice but he’s not popular in Smash speculation. Wish he was bigger than that purple-haired waifubait
Julian Kelly
Well I mean outside of smash roster speculation, he's a pretty huge indie. Cave Story, Meat Boy and etc kind of kickstarted what would end up being the indie market today.
Owen Baker
Huge legacy-wise, not big industry-wise. He’s only a Nicalis puppet nowadays, without any releases besides ports.
Nonetheless, my 2nd most wanted.
Andrew Edwards
How much would Yea Forums seethe if Shantae were actually added?
Nolan Barnes
Only rosterfags would seethe. The rest would be jerking off to the new influx of porn.
James Morales
I mean if it results in more Shantae porn, I don't think many people will mind.
I don't think anyone's anti-Shantae, but she's clearly a never ever pick.
Shantaefags are the problem.
Ryan Carter
This is just getting sad now. Jesus fuck just take the L. This has happened twice now.
Levi Gomez
I’m anti-Shantae somewhat. Sure her moveset is unique but I just feel like the majority of her support came from Wayforward backing and horny autists. I’ve played a couple of her games and they’re nothing too spectacular. I’d rather have another indie.
Aiden Perez
>Nobody in real life even knows what Doom is
Damn nigga that's a funny ass joke.
Nolan Cruz
>Still wants Shitae playable in Smash
You're delusional af if you think that way, fag.
Charles Parker
Spoilerfag here. In fall, the fourth DLC character will get announced. Its:
The Dragonborn. There will even be a joke about Skyrim having been in everything now, even Smash.
They will be released in December this year.
The last character is:
Crash Bandicoot, with Coco Bandicoot as his alt costume, four colors for each.
They will be released in February 2020.
Then, either when the last character gets revealed, or around the day they get released, there will be a direct, in which Sakurai will reference the pre order incentive that Piranha Plant was. He will then show a trailer for the new character for the 2nd DLC Fighters Pass. The character is:
Porky Minch from Earthbound and Mother 3. He pilots his spider mech like Bowser Jr to get around.
Christian Sanchez
And Minecraft is more popular than Banjo. See how this argument falls apart?
Asher Bell
man the Dragonborn would be cash though. Various weapon attacks, most likely a heavy, dragon shouts for his specials
Parker Stewart
40% Hype
35% Seething
15% People just posting about the porn
5% Gore posting
5% People who don't care but are just taking the time to btfo post
Aaron Lee
Banjo is outnumbered two to one.
>Joker
>Popular
>Hero
>Insanely Popular
>Banjo
>CLEARLY THEY AREN'T PICKED DUE TO POPULARITY GUYS
Don't expect them all to be picks like Banjo. He was just the most popular old pick that hadn't gotten in yet. There won't be another like him.
Jayden Long
Wayforward does not have enough importance to actually cause Shantae to be as popular a request as she it.
Carson Sanchez
Are Shantaefags the new Stevefags minus having original content.
Daniel Phillips
dont you fucking dare get my hopes up for a ROUND 2 of DLC releases
my heart couldnt take it
Parker Martin
Doom was the Fortnite of it's day. It was literally the most popular game in the world at one point.
John Scott
Banjo was also more requested for Smash than Steve, and Master Chief is more requested than Doomguy.
Mason Long
they've always been cringe
Jaxon Lopez
"Raring to go" doesn't mean anything. Translators are the one that put in the puns. In Japanese, it's always "X joins the battle!"
Brayden Cox
Yeah but now Shantaefags are going out of their away to antagonize everyone like Stevefags did.
Owen Sullivan
And you're saying Doom isn't popular right?
Jordan Peterson
>Master Chief is more requested than Doomguy
"No!"
John Gutierrez
King Boo could be in for a luigis mansion tie in.
but I would like the bear from tekken banjos cool but a just straight up realistic grizzly bear in smash would be really fun
I would also like monster hunter
Dylan Watson
No I'm not. I am saying that Doomslayer isn't popular as a character.
Brayden Carter
>Master Chief is more requested than Doomguy.
Yeah by 9 year olds who played too much xbox live I assume.
Brayden Rodriguez
This isn't confirmation, but I would love this.
>hentai addicts
Says this while posting a furry lol.
Thomas Williams
>Kuma in smash
I could get behind that
Blake Phillips
imagine being bullied by a fictional genie online
Jackson Brooks
Skins would definitely be different types of bears
Sun bear
Polar bear
panda
Yellow bear with red scarf (pooh bear)
What else?
Cooper Diaz
>imagine being bullied
There is no bullying rosterfaggotry, only flame wars.
Oliver Lewis
They would probably just reuse the colors for DKs alts fur, like they did with pink banjo
Jason Jones
You mean like most characterfags?
Dominic James
Racoon fur patterns would be neat
Aiden Gray
>Doomslayer isn't popular as a character.
He's literally had as much Internet popularity as fucking Joker and Banjo. If not, more than just that. Are you pretending to be retarded?
Robert Fisher
>I don't think anyone's anti shantae
motherfucker just TYPE in Shantae into the archive site for Yea Forums, skim the last 10 pages or so and say that again.
Michael Reed
Im anti shantae
Mason Long
I just want to remind Shantaefags one thing... NOT HAPPENING
NEVER
EVER
NOPE
NOT A CHANCE
NADDA
NUH-UH
Adrian Jenkins
I still think an Undertale/Deltarune rep stands a shot, no matter how likely. Both are insanely popular in Japan and the West, both are on the Switch, and Toby Fox speaks some Japanese (so language barrier wouldn’t be much of an issue).
Wyatt Bennett
no
Carson Thomas
Doomslayer started being pushed around the same time as Steve, after the DLC was announced. No fans actually wanted Joker, Sakurai wanted Joker. Banjo's been wanted since MELEE. OVER TEN YEARS AGO. You cannot compare such drastically different characters to a character as generic as doomslayer. Look I get it, you want a "FPS rep" in the game or something, but its just not gonna happen, you should give up on it. FPS characters just don't leave that big a impact. Please try to keep in mind that Snake was only added as a literal favor to Kojima's son. It took a special request in friendship to do it. Its not gonna happen again.
Luke Lee
Stop this silly zoomer
Liam Young
Kayden Cook
So are they gonna put in Knightmare, Ivy or Taki?
Theyre gonna put in a Soul Caliber character whose it gonna be?
Tyler Richardson
Too indie, too new, just wouldn't work out.
Ryan Edwards
>FPS characters just don't leave that big a impact
FPS is one of the biggest genre's in gaming.
Jaxon Cox
>insanely popular
Mason Wilson
Doom is literally the reason Gabe started Steam.
Liam Edwards
Please Sakurai...Please
Lucas Gomez
And Minecraft is one of the most highest selling games of all time right? Both of these statements have no relevance here.
David Bennett
But he can definitely happen.
youtube.com
Carson Morales
nobody gives much of a shit about pac-man but they still know what it is lol
Bentley Nelson
If they were going to add a FPS character Doomslayer is the one who started it all and is the most iconic fps character
Cameron Baker
That means nothing. How can you see Joker, Hero, and Banjo standing together and actually think the pass is going to have character variety? Where you one of those "villainfags" who think they "won" when we got K Rool, and Ridley, two characters already popular, and just were coincidentally villains?
Jose King
Well one of the only two likely FPS characters already has his foot in the door.
Anthony Walker
When will you faggots learn there's practically no predicting the roster at this point?
Anthony Howard
>If they were going to add a FPS chara-
But they aren't. We have Snake. Its over.
Nathaniel Harris
Thomas Perry
I'm putting my money on SATURDAY
Tyler Wilson
There are no likely FPS characters. At all.
Camden Brooks
>Doomguy popular enough now to have contrarian detractors
neat, hope they add him in eventually
Angel Parker
>About to get in the game once again
>Pretty much confirmed at this point
>FUCKING EARTHQUAKE RUINS HIS CHANCES AGAIN
Easton Sanders
>MGS is a FPS
ok...youre an idiot
Jacob Kelly
It means Doom is extremely iconic. It's what popularized multiplayer fps games. It's the reason game like Halo, COD and Half Life exist.
Metal Gear Solid is a stealth game series you fucking moron.
Jaxon Wood
Shooter game guy, same thing.
Anthony Wright
Doomguy isn't iconic at all. Stop focusing on the popularity of Doom when its about the character themselves.
Parker Price
S-Sakurai-sama
Eli Jackson
He's not from an FPS series, retard. Snake represents stealth games. Doomguy represnted fps games. Two different genres.
Dylan Young
user, Master Chief is a likely character. MS is the only company missing a mascot or a character from their most important series. Capcom, Sega and Konami all have 3 reps and it's not likely any of them will get a fourth. Microsoft is also the only company besides Namco at this point who has one rep. There is also nothing that says a company can get more than one rep through DLC.
Levi Cooper
nobody represents shit this is rulefaggotry
Anthony Smith
Like I said, shooter game guy.
Aaron Howard
>It has pew pew so its a shooter
Gosh... and Joker is a FPS character too ? What about Bayonetta ? Is Link using a Bow consider him as a shooter guy ? And what about Duo Duck hunt ?
Ryan Rivera
what are the chances stevefags are roleplaying as shantaefags now that there's a rageclick topic to spam smash threads?
Lincoln White
Dont reply to me zoomer trash
Adam Wood
>B-b-b-but he uses guns!
So does Joker. So does Samus. So does Bayonetta. Shut the fuck up already.
Isaiah Murphy
Considering they are doing the same thing with Klonoa, pretty high.
Leo Allen
Microsoft isn't getting two reps.
>b-but Banjo doesn't co-
Interview literally revealed Sakurai had to get him from Microsoft. Banjo is the Microsoft rep.
Why should Microsoft get two characters?
>B-but Sakurai doesn't have the power in character choices Microsoft doe-
No, they don't. Sakurai literally has ALL THE POWER. He once told Square fucking Enix that if they do not give him Cloud, he will leave and they will get nothing. NO company gets their way with Sakurai, he either gets what he wants, or he leaves.
Nicholas Bailey
>im only pretending
Kayden Garcia
>MS is the only company missing a mascot or a character from their most important seri-
You got Banjo. Shut the fuck up.
Joshua Watson
>I don't like so its not iconic
Cameron Clark
>ctrl+F
>no prince
Fuck everyone. Please tell me I'm not the only one who wants him.
Parker Murphy
>let me highly generalize your statement against you
Please do not. There are first person shooters, and third person shooters. They are both called shooters. There are also stealth shooters. Stop acting like technicalities matter when they literally do not.
>Joker uses a gun!
A RPG guy.
>Bayonetta
A action game lady.
>Link
Also a action game. Or adventure game. Whatever.
>Duck Hunt
A mascot character like Banjo is.
Daniel Reed
>M-Microsoft isn't getting two reps.
And why not?
>Interview literally revealed Sakurai had to get him from Microsoft
Yeah, and it was pretty damn easy. They could have struck a deal that got Chief in as well.
>Putting words into my mouth
Yeah, nice try I never said Sakurai doesn't have the power of character selection. Also, Nintendo picked the characters dumb ass.
Adrian Watson
love that fucking madman
Matthew Harris
>S-shut up, I don't have an argument so just SHUT UP!!!
Austin Green
And Snake is from a steal game. He represents stealth games. Not FPS games.
Angel Adams
Sakurai didn't want Master Chief over Banjo, he just wanted Banjo. I know this is hard for you to understand, but he compared the demand of Banjo to Master Chief, and Banjo's was higher going on before Halo 1 had come out. Its over. He wasn't picked. Banjo was. Better luck next game?
Ryan Russell
>Yeah, nice try I never said Sakurai doesn't have the power of character selection. Also, Nintendo picked the characters dumb ass.
reread the article youre quoting Nintendo presented Sakurai with choices and sakurai made the final pick
Kayden Foster
Snake represents the shooter genre which is made up of stealth shooters, first person shooters, and third person shooters. What is wrong with that?
David James
Shantae fags, I feel for you, I really do. But you guys are pulling some Ashly-levels-of-faggotry.
Ian Taylor
How can you say that for sure when we dont know who the last two are?
Luke Cook
Thats bold of you to assume when we have more then 4 characters representing platformers.
Benjamin Roberts
Why are Shantaefags getting hype over a window? She's a spirit either way.
Grayson Sullivan
>Sakurai didn't want Master Chief over Banjo, he just wanted Banjo, he just wanted Banjo
And I never said he did, do you have ANY actual evidence to say that they both couldn't get in?
Xavier Butler
WE WANT OUR PORN GAME REP
Brandon Nelson
slow news week
Ian Gonzalez
Question, can you tell the difference between a mascot and a platformer representative?
Aaron Gray
>Master Chief could never get in, Sakurai only wants Banjo in
>Do you have any proof of that?
>:^I
Levi Cooper
Nintendo chose Banjo. End of story.
>Metal Gear Solid (genre: action-adventure stealth)
>Doom (genre: first-person shooter)
Not the same thing you fucking retard.
Kayden Miller
>Nintendo chose Banjo. End of story.
>J-JUST S-STOP!!! I DON'T HAVE AN ARGUMENT SO J-JUST STOP!!!!
Brody Gonzalez
Question, can you tell the difference between a Stealth and a FPS representative?
Easton Ward
Sakurai wanted Banjo since Melee but couldn't due to legal issues. Master Chief is a literal never ever.
Cameron Thomas
In the interview about getting Cloud, Sakurai stated that he negotiated to get the costumes with Cloud. If Sakurai had gotten more then just Banjo for Microsoft, he would have mentioned speaking about "other topics". Why is it so hard to accept that Sakurai can pick a character to represent a gaming company, that doesn't represent them well at all? That is exactly what he did to Square Enix. They wanted Lightning or Noctis, and Sakurai said "The requests I have been getting were for Cloud, so I want Cloud". Microsoft has no power.
