Jill and Crash
None, until an trustworthy insider mentions one of these, none are in.
Crash and Spyro
Leon and crash
It's going to be none of them.
Crash and Doom Slayer
Forgetting someone?
Give me a good reason to think any if these character would get in that doesn’t involve how popular they are in general, how they have a game on the Switch or how some person from their company talked to Nintendo.
Ryu for the music, I really don't care who the other choice is
I choose Master Chief.
Crash Bandicoot and Ryu.
Resident Evil and Crash
An RE character seems like they'd have a fun stage and entertaining jank in their moveset. Crash seems like a more fun option than another Sheik-clone or Doom Slayer.
Unique Move sets.
I'm thinking they're in.
Ryu and Crash
Ryu and Terry Bogard
Crash and Doomguy and Geno as bonus DLC.
I love Reimu
Pretty based. Doomguy and Crash for me.
This. He's a glaring omission, I found it weird that he wasn't in fucking Brawl even
Ryu and Doomguy.
Crash and doomguy
based.
Literally who.
>changing characters AGAIN
Stop pairing good characters with shitmu.
Reposting from last thread, here are the reasons why the following "characters" aren't going to be in Smash:
>Monster Hunter
Already represented in game with Rathalos. Wouldn't be exciting or surprising if revealed. Capcom has better potential reps
>Amaterasu
More irrelevant than Banjo. Uninteresting literal who to every region. Capcom has better potential reps
>Phoenix Wright
No move set potential. Prove me wrong. He's not a blank slate like certain Smash characters. Don't pull shit out of your ass.
>Reimu
Literal who. Doesn't even have a official series logo. Generic anime girl. The new Steve
>Agumon
Design is too boring and generic. Would be neat, but started as a digital pet toy, barely even a video game
>Kasumi
Wouldn't get in before Ryu Hayabusa. Boring design, uninteresting move set. Not worth dealing with CERO
>Llyod Irving
Boring anime character. Expecting three JRPG protags in the same Fighter's Pass? Fuck out of here.
>Sylux, Porky, Byleth
Not expecting anything 1st party in the current Fighter's Pass. Porky would be cool, I guess
>Undertale anything
Doesn't need an explanation. You're a retard if you expect Sans and brain dead if you expect Frisk/Chara
>Rayman
Spirit, also boring as sin
>RE rep that isn't Leon
Personal bias, I guess, but Leon has a lot more personality than the other RE reps. Also starred in a game recently. Probably won't got any of them since I doubt they'd get Paul Mercier back to voice Leon.
>Steve
Not as popular as Minecraft. Boring character with a boring move set. Works better as a stage.
>Heihachi
Was rooting for him initially but in hindsight, is pretty boring. Both VAs are dead. Let the character rot in PSASBR
>Klonoa
More irrelevant than Banjo. Wouldn't get in before Crash
>Kos Mos
Fucking who? Seriously, who bitch this is?
>Morrigan, Mai, Nakoruru
Two are a CERO nightmare and the other is a literal who. You do the math
Refute me
@471122997
Not worth giving a (You) to you, nor is it worth it responding to you, but I'm just acknowledge your bait.
Mega Man, Street Fighter and Monster Hunter got in before him and Resident Evil and Devil May Cry will prob get in before him. He's the 6th most likely Capcom franchise if that's what you're going for, that is not Brawl worthy, that's like Smash 7 worthy.
>again
I literally just made this image after thinking about it for a bit.
Fuck off.
>game already has a MH monster as a boss
>people think a RE character is more likely the Capcom rep
hope you know you're probably going to be screencapped and laughed at in a couple of months
Based
Crash's icon would have to be this, come on
Doomguy will never ever be in Super Smash Brothers.
Phoenix Wright was already in MvC3 dont give me that shit
yes
Kill yourself faggot
I'm guessing you want Chosen Undead?
>Holy shit, Reimu confirmed!
For a stock Icon yeah, but pic related should be the series logo, or at least a Gem/Power Crystal
>Klonoa
>More irrelevant than Banjo. Wouldn't get in before Crash
>Refute me
I have multiple times
Doomguy and Chosen Undead
More respect, Ryu may not be as as likely as I would like, but he is far from just a Sheik clone (also, another? we barely have two ninjas and are nothing alike)
Ryu has at least a canon move list to pull from, which includes his multiple weapons, Nippo, and of course, the IZUNA DROP!
Replace Ryu wirh Chosen Undead and it’d make sense.
How anal pained would Yea Forums be?
And he played like shit.
My personal house would be Leon and Doomslayer but if I actually had got to pick the final two Jill and Crash. Jill for a female rep and reps resident evil and then Crash is about the only character left that can really finish the DLC with a significant wow it happened factor type character. Sony’s old mascot alongside Mario and sonic is a good way to end the DLC and ultimate in general.
>give me one reason why they’re in without giving me a reason they’re in.
>He doesn't realize that Ratholos IS the Monster Hunter Rep
He was the most fun character in that game
I'll only accept Doomguy if he has a true, honest classic costume and not just that sorta-kinda classic costume from QC.
Geno is no more irrelevant than Duck Hunt or Banjo. He WILL be in
Here Re your final two DLC fighters, bros. Thank me later.
Except none of those are reasons why they would be in.
Now this? Yeah, this is based.
Are you crazy? He was so much fucking fun.
Initially, yes, but I've come to realize that he wouldn't do much to differentiate himself from someone like Hero, besides having a stamina meter. I was going to include him in my post but I reached the character limit. I'm more of a Dantefag, to be honest, but even I realize his chances are slim to none.
Probably didn't do a good job seeing as I completely forgot or ignored your post.
I just want a cute miko to join the roster...
What WOULD be then?
This is Taizo Hori, the protagonist of the iconic Dig Dug franchise. Say something nice about him!
>expecting three characters from M rated titles
none of them, Shantae and KOS-MOS.
Doomguy for legacy reasons and the fact Pete Hines hinted at Bethesda and Smash content twice. In the E3 Nintendo power podcast he says “Who knows, maybe more surprises for Nintendo fans of Doom along the way” it makes sense that he is in.
He has a name?
And if bomberman was an at, so would this guy.
At least Leon fills the precedent so far, out of three DLC announce, two come from companies that were working with Nintendo both in the base roster and the content from Four, and Capcom have proven to be a company willing and even eager to work with Nintendo for more Smash content, and thier IPs are highly recognizable and easy to sell. So, is easy to assume they are among the most likely companies Nintendo would think of for future DLC seals.
After that, Capcom already added their nostalgic character for Nintendo fans with Megaman, then her classic Flagship IP with Ryu and Ken, not to mention a Boss from their rising IP, which is exactly how their developers like it to be. Going from that, the next logical step is RE, their most profitable IP around the world, with iconic characters, and an easy moveset to come with. Nothing wrong with Ace Attorney or Devil May Cry, but in the likely scenario of Capcom getting more DLC, Resident Evil seems like the safest bet, both to speculate, and for Nintendo to get some sales and headlines.
Also, this may just be me, but the time Nintendo spend on E3 promoting two new RE ports AND the previous ports, with their own segment, when they could just put them on the sizzle reel, gave me flashbacks as to how much attention Dragon Quest got on previous Directs.
As for the other characters... they are just logic picks from some third party allies of Nintendo: Crash have gotten a rise on demand since Four, so if Nintendo was ware of the Banjo demand, the may as well be from the Crash one, Tecmo have been developing games just for Nintendo (some even by commission) so a rep from them is not of the question, and Ryu is the most popular. Similar with Doomguy, and the important ally that Bethesda has been for Switch ever since it's announcement. Still, this last three are just "logic" picks, they don't have a pattern as solid to follow as Capcom have right now.
I hate Reimufags with a passion but I'd take her over Nakoruru anyday. I don't know why people want or expect that hyper irrelevant character.
You mean Morrigan and Kosmos, is time for the Capcom x Namco revival through their shill girls.
Ryu Hayabusa and Leon.
Chosen Undead is by far the most likely name being thrown around, and this is coming from someone who doesn't like From games.
Doom & Jill
A "leak" for a female character from a fighting game with a flying weapon. Is most than likely fake, and even so, it's translation (the leaker is Japanese) is dubious at best.
But, it got people thinking, and the fans for both Nakoruru and Morrigan hyped for a hot minute. Now we are just living the aftermath.
Blizzard already said they'd want Diablo in Smash if they ever get contacted
Ryu Hayabusa
The rest are unworthy, Ryu would still be disappointing because there is never going to be a new Ninja Gaiden.
By precedents and numbers, that honor still belongs to Leon/Jill, but you are not wrong that if we want to think of a Namco rep, and assuming the arguments against Heiachi have some merit, then yes, CU is the most likely from them... I would prefer Nightmare, but the fact nobody bring him up, makes me realize how little demand Soul Calibur has.
Second round of voting is done with a little over 300 hopefully real :^) voters tallied up. Doom Guy and Reimu hold on to their leads, underdog Phoenix pulls ahead beating out Crash with a very slight lead leaving him the only Capcom rep left. Here is the final 4 from the polls I was running in the earlier threads (along with our runner ups)
Please pick two from these top 4. After it gets enough votes, we'll have our top two most wanted characters for the remaining two slots decided. Even if your guy's been knocked out, be sure to vote for whoever you 'would' like among these four.

Leon and Ryu. Easiest choice in the world.
Does he count as a book character?
Based
To be fair, they joke saying they wanted old man Cain, so assuming it was actually a tease, this still could mean any character of theirs.
Here’s your next DLC fighter.
Something more tied to Smash? And I mean something beyond "This company talked to Nintendo about Smash" because a shit ton of companies probably talk to them about getting a character in Smash.
WRIGHTBROS ASSEMBLE
youtube.com
I would say not, or at least as much as the Dracula from Castlevania is, but it's a huge debate, and as someone pointed to me, it could give the Gokufags something to fuel their fight, so I rather avoid that.
CAN'T STOP THE PHOENIX
I was already here.
What is more tied to smash then discussing your character being IN smash?
oh god bros....
It's poetic, isn't it? Wright has been the underdog this whole time. Just like his cases, will he overcome all odds and take the lead?
nah it'll probably be doomguy
This is Lara Croft, she's an iconic western character and is up there with Samus and Chun-Li as one the most popular female video game characters. Say something nice about her!
SJW shit
You deserve better than what Square's marketing has done for you.
>Phoenix on the number one spot
HELL YEAH wright CHADS he's gonna be in i just know it
How would you rebuild the FE cast if you had the chance?
It’s going to be someone from RE as one of them, it’s just too big of a franchise to ignore and one of the very few popular with normalfags and people who actually play games, it would generate headlines again like the previous ones. The other is mystery but I’m leaning Ryu due to the NES connection
him and doomguy being the top 2 would make my day, but I'm just glad phoenix has gotten this far. even if he doesn't win in a poll, my man Wright will always be the winner in my heart
I want Palico!
Doom and Crash. EZ
>It’s going to be someone from Dark Souls as one of them, it’s just too big of a franchise to ignore and one of the very few popular with normalfags and people who actually play games, it would generate headlines again like the previous ones. The other is mystery but I’m leaning Doomguy due to the SNES connection
>Banjo (Nintendo fan favorite) got in before Minecraft (the most popular game of all time)
>Phoenix (Nintendo fan favorite) versus Resident Evil (the most popular Capcom franchise not in Smash)
Really makes the dingle tingle.
Fuck crapcom
Marth, Ike, Lyn, ATiki, Ephraim, Veronica
>comparing Banjo's large bandwagon circle jerk fanbase to Wright's niche fanbase
If you have to cut the FE cast down to bare essentials, I'd keep Marth (OG protagonist), Robin (MC of the game that kept the franchise afloat), and optional Ike (most popular male character and protagonist in the series).
If FE got to have more than that, than I'd add Hector for axe and GBA representation, and Tiki to replace Corrin as the dragon character.
Ryu & Crash, because one was an NES icon, and the other is some goofy fun who was also a 90s video game posterboy.
Doomguy's aight, but I don't think he'd work well in a Smash setting, and if I wanted any Resident Evil character in Smash, I'd pick fucking Nemesis over some boring cops.
Phoenix has a nice tan, perks of living in Japanifornia I guess
Good question!
Personally, I feel like it'd be best to just shrink it and pull a Hero for Marth with various sword lords being alternate costumes. Here's what I've got:
>Marth with Roy, Lucina, and Lyn skins
>Robin, with a more focused magician moveset
>Ike or Hector - personally I would prefer Hector for a superheavyweight axe wielder
>It's too big to ignore.
No, because it's been ignored for the past three games.
>Wright's niche fanbase
Not where Smash and the ballot were concerned.
Make it an 8-Player Smash
Separate Leon and Jill
Add Terry
Add Phoenix Wright
Add Sans
Be honest? Why do you not want RE in smash?
Marth
Lyn
Ike
Chrom & Lucina (duo)
And whoever ends up being the best/most interesting of Edelgard/Dimitri/Claude
Why the FUCK aren't we getting DLC echoes when we're getting new paid Mii costumes, which people largely don't give a shit about?
Seeing how there’s little else to add it’s too big to ignore. Only Zelda, Mario, and Pokemon are bigger franchises overall
Everyone, share your energy so Goku can get in Smash!
Terry you say?
honestly any combo would be hype but my heart is set on doomslayer
Everyone, share your energy so Spongebob (the superior 4th party) can get in Smash!
RE is way bigger than dark souls thanks to the shitty movies, even my fucking boomer grandma knows what resident evil is.
>thinking we're getting another Capcom character at all
Capcom is the easiest 3rd party to work with by far and they license shit for cheap.
>Let me pull this rule out of my ass
Nobody genuinely thinks this, especially with how shitty modern Spongebob is
I think they’re actually fine for now, maybe cut out robin/corrin and Chrom if they needed to. But at this point the roster is so huge that I don’t think that cuts will be a thing in the next game.
Here are the most likely third parties as per ballot popularity.
- Cut Crhom and Roy, I still don't know what to do with Ike, I want him to stay, but he is redundant in the rest of my plan.
- Marth/Lucina stays, at least as alts, though I don't care if she remains as an echo.
- Replace Corrin with Tiki, the dragon transformation gimick stays (though the moveset isn't the same), with a character far more iconic to the franchise.
Robyn is replaced with a new magic unit. My knowledge come from Heroes here, so some more hardcore fans will need to help me here. For what I know it's either Tharja, Celica, Lilina, Micaiah or Linde... Soren is the only guy I could think of. If someone has a better idea, I listen, but I prefer if it's a pure mage, without weapons.
- As for Ike... he can stay, though that leaves two sword users, he can be cut even if it hurst, or he can be replaced by Hector, I believe.
Marth
Ike
Lyn
Robin
Not a rule, just an expectation in the realm of plausibility, you dumbass faggot.
crash/ryu. anything else is tardmode
Crash really does seem to fit right it like Sakurai said about Banjo. And I'm not that much of a Crash supporter, just think he's an ok pick at least.
If the Ballot mattered the most we wouldn't have Joker or Hero
Doom man and ninja man because that is what is actually happening.
Yep, Phoenix is in.
Based.
I really think people bought way too much into Pete Hines’ words. I bet Doomguy is nothing more than a mii outfit.
>Marth
>Ike
>Hector (Ike clone with a different up B animation, axe functions like a tipper)
>Robin
>Lucina stays in as a Marth clone but Chrom is now an alt costume for her
>Corrin
You know that its really not that hard to google why Joker is in. He got in because Sakurai wanted him in.
okay so we aren't getting ballot picks
good to know
I want him in.
A smash thread died for this
The maximum hype train would be Crash and Master Chief revealed together. The first and probably only time that the classic Nintendo mascot, the classic Sega mascot, the classic Sony mascot, and the closest thing to a Microsoft mascot are in the same game.
why are rosterfags so obsessed with limiting everyone to a small handful of boring characters they're allowed to like?
Based indeed. Glad to know people are starting to be on the Wright side for a change.
>closest thing to a microsoft mascot
Chief is their Mascot, Sony’s actual mascot is basically Japan only
Based choice but you probably know what I mean
Sakurai asked for Joker, but still, if the Ballot was so relevant, Nintendo wouldn't have given him that option to begin with, or would have actually try to push for Sora or.... ugh, Geno.
The only character that got in for the ballot seems to be Banjo, and even so, Sakurai stated that the demand for him was made know even after K Rool and Ridley were added (Thank you Grinch leak?) at it was most likely still a move to keep a good relation with Microsoft.
The DLC focus still seems to be the third party partnerships, and not so much the old Ballot.
do you know the results of the ballot?
Marth, Ike, Robin, villain

Script cuts off here, but there is another page I dont have access to
Like how all of those insiders said that steve is in?
Especially verge until he went back on that claim?
I'd rather have doomguy as an assist trophy where retro sprite imps appear in the background and shoot fire balls at the stage while the doom hud appears at the bottom of the screen and shoots back with various doom 1 weapons.
>Marth
>Lyn
>Ike
>Robin
>Chrom/Lucina
>Corrin
Lyn operates similar to Raiden in PSAS, with slashing rekka tilts that can combo into one another to an extent, an aerial neutral that can combo & slow her fall, a slash teleport Up B recovery, an aim-able Down B bow attack, a divekick Side B with her blade, and a Judgment Cut-esque B projectile. She's agile, but lightweight. Colors are based on Eliwood, Hector, Ninian, Florina, Dorcas, and two alternate costumes based on her Awakening design, one with a color scheme based on Tomoe Gozen & her red-&-white armor commonly depicted.
Chrom acts as he does in Ultimate, but now has a Javelin toss as a Side B. Lucina is an alternate costume of Chrom, acts like Alf, their Final Smash is their Project X Zone 2 super move.
Marth gets his tuxedo costume from Warriors/Heroes with a blue color scheme for the tux in addition to the white.
Ike has his original VA, fuck Greg Chun.
Female Corrin is the default.
Azura takes Lyn's place as a buffing Assist Trophy acting similar to Victini so long as she's out.
Fates has a stage now in the form of the Plains of Hoshido, where the player chooses their path. Xander & Ryoma can be seen battling in the background. Stage changes as they battle & activate Dragon Veins.
Fates has more music from the game than what it got in Ultimate, #FE gets two songs in the form of the standard battle theme & Gharnef boss theme.
Ephraimfags & Hectorfags get fucked & stay fucked for all of time.
How else will I get support for Doomguy, Crash or Chosen Undead If I don’t convince other people their most wanted isn’t likely.
Too fucking late, bengoshi-san. He's not getting in.
This kills the kasumi fag
Thing with FE villains, is that the most well known one is still Black Knight, which may be just a slower Ike.
Is even possible to give Medeus something close to Corrin idea of a moveset? Though, I think Tiki would be the far better Dragon rep for Fire Emblem.
Both of these are fucking cringe
>Nintendo wouldn't have given him that option to begin with
He’s the director of the game, they don’t have to give him the option.
You're cringe.
Ryu and Crash.
>inb4 hurr another anime swordsman!!!1
Sure, but at least he's an edgy 2000's anime swordsman, and not shonenshit, we don't have that.
He is also a freelancer who has no said on Nintendo's intention of making DLC, he didn't even like the idea of a season pass. Just as he didn't have a said when Nintendo decide to add Corrin.
doomguy and leon
Time to fire up those IP resets, Reimuchads!
don't forget, IZUNA DROP!
Doom and Leon
Crash is boring and people are just coattailing because of Banjo
We already have plenty of ninja characters so Ryu wouldn't be fun. But then again we already had a Magic/Sword user yet the proudly opened E3 with a Robin clone
Leon and Doom Slayer, specially Leon.
They are most unlikely characters to appear, and poor Leon has never received the love he deserves in crossover franchises.
It is almost like Capcom hates him even though he is the most popular RE character ever.
As a Phoniexfag I approve. Would be a cool outcome.
>gokufags
He had all the say on Corrin. His team convinced him to add Corrin. Sakurai also has final say on who gets added as DLC for Ultimate
based gokubro
Why blur the name? He should be exposed like the rat he is.
This is hard.
One pick is obviously doomguy, but the second is hard.
I'd love crash getting in since I've loved him even as a kid.
On the other hand, I've never played any ninja gaiden game except the first on (thanks nes online) but I'd love to see ryu get in. I'd love to have a ninja character who isn't a frog.
But I have the leaks right here of course. It clearly states that the final two DLC fighters will be Crash and......!
Just like how shitty modern Dragon Ball is.
They actually though on adding him on UMvC3, after the current RE cast was chosen to promote RE%, but decide to add Frank instead due to the timing with recent Dead Rising releases at the time, and the possibility to add Nemesis too as a more unique RE rep. Then Capcom loss the rights to make more DLC for the game back then.
Then MvCI was just a bunch of reused assets, and they bring back Chris one his freaking RE5 design (not 7, not Revelations, not even 6) instead.
Leon did make it into Project x Zone for what it's worth it.
Fucking this. Sakurai finally unlocked the ability to shit out echoes and have the majority of people like them and sakurai just said fuck it.
Leon
Watch it be Chris
Leon
Sakurai also wants to get the fuck out of the Smash developing offices, but he is to proud to do so. He must be terrified of the idea of Nintendo asking for more DLC right now, so he surely is not giving them more ideas as to how to get even more, cheaper DLC.
I honestly think that if he truly wants to let go of Smash someday (Nintendo has made him clear they are making this games with, or without him) he should take this DLC as an opportunity to find a successor.
Edgeworth
Ryu H. would be cool, but that would be pretty confusing to have two characters with the same name.
For me, Leon and Doom Slayer.
meant to reply
>Roy and Roy Koopa
Even the DOA games call him Hayabusa on the selection screen. And the CvS games have a far more similars Ryu and Ryo.
I don't think a Sword wielding Ninja with the Hayabusa last name would be that confusing.
I thought Leon would get more popular after RE2 Remake, but even though the game is great it wasn't enough to bring the series to its previous glory.
It seems the RE4 formula is still necessary is some way or another. Have cool characters and gameplay is more interesting than realism and plain simple survival horror, though the two things aren't excludent.
But it seems even Yea Forums doesn't give a fuck about Leon.
Is just Yea Forums, not the real world, and even so, the character with most votes is still "just" 151 votes. Don't take it that seriously.
>Resident Evil
Yawn. Literally everyone else every user is rooting for ITT would be leagues better.
Yeah, but in a way or another the point remains that he hasn't received the love he deserves in crossover franchises.
Wildcard
It seems the defense is too occupied with his disbelief to finish his sentence. I wouldn't get too worked up over it, it's a fighting game and well, I'm not sure if I have ever seen you fight, Wright.
crash and bonk
Capcom consistently picks Chris for every crossover that RE appears in. Why do you guys suddenly think it will be different this time? At most Jill or Leon might be his alts.
In all honestly, is bad timing mos of the time. Most Resident Evil cameos, with the exeption of Jill on MvC2 (back when she was the face of the franchise), are meant to promote the latest games. Even in Project x Zone, Jill and Chis were promoting Revelations, while Leon and Ada were doing the same for 6. And MvC3 was a huge promotion for RE5. His absent of Mercenaries 3D was baffling none the less.
But still, even if I am a Jill supporter, this timing is just right for Leon.
because no one cares about chris or his lust for sperm
They didn't for MvC2, he was just shill for RE5 in MvC3 alongside Jill and Wesker, and a rehuset asset on MvCI alongside most of the capcom side.
Project x Zone, partner of Jill to shill Revelation, just as Leon and Ada did for 6.
Jill was the closest the franchise ever has to a "face"... and then Wesker for a short time. All the other crossovers RE have had, are timed with the most recent game.
I know what you mean but I'm talking about the real world as well.
RE has always beem a series whose popularity was in large part due to its characters, but since its downfall it has not recovered.
RE7 was irrelevant in that regard and Remake 2, for all intents and purposes, didn't exceed expectations, specially in this regard.
I mean, all the mid game interactions between Leon and Claire were cut off. They do not communicate with each other through the walktalkie, Leon doesn't meet Sherry until the ending of the game, and so on...
The simple interactions was what made the relationship between Leon, Claire and Sherry has any semblance of depth, which would impact their lifes for the remaining of the franchise.
RE2 Remake didn't necessarily downgraded it, but they lost a precious opportunity to make it better, which give them material to work with in later games as far as character development goes.
Yet again, Capcom is too simple minded.
>Amaterasu
>More irrelevant than Banjo
Are you sure about that, user? Who do you want in?
To shill RE2make and because Sakurai probably gets SOME say in it
>MvC2
Like a billion years ago.
>Project x Zone
He was the lead unit of their team, at least in two. I didn't play the first one.
he didn't mention doomguy or chosen undead
Crash and anyone
Why wouldn't they shill for Resident Evil 1 remake, which they made an entire trailer for in the last direct?
>Sakurai gets some say in it
Sakurai prefers the classics.
It's gonna be Chris and Jill as they're the protagonists of the first game.
Quick reminder to all that this poll is fake.
THESE ARE NOT Yea Forums's WANTED CHARACTERS
Again, you are talking as a fan, and I respect that. But RE still going strong in the numbers game, as always. RE5 and 6, with all their...lets say problems, did sold great.
And RE7 was a highlight for many outlest for quiet a while, a favorite among youtubers, it did bring back some fans, and even if Capcom expected more, it sold very well.
Remake 2 has also sold extremely well, is already making the cut in many goty lists for this years, and more fans, either casual of hardcore, seem to be happy with it.
Again, I respect your views as a harcore fan, heck, I haven't played 7 or Remake 2 due to lack of funds yet (Only a Switch and a not so powerful Mac on my end), but the point is, they have done just fine with mainstream consumers, and even some hardcore fans.
If anything, the franchise continues to do just fine on the numbers game, while also brining back some of the good faith it lost with most of his fans in recent years.
probably because they're good adds
Who cares? No one cares what Yea Forums wants.
>But it seems even Yea Forums doesn't give a fuck about Leon.
Are you retarded? Leon is one of the top character picks for DLC. What the hell are you smoking?
>when Crash falls off the stage and loses a stock his empty shoes fly up
>Yea Forums doesnt give a fuck about one of the most beloved characters on Yea Forums
You okay in the head, son?
Why are you still spamming this fake poll? I'm the real Poll runner, guys. Be sure to vote on the Official Poll
A billion years ago, but still, they pick Jill over him as the face of RE, they didn't even need to fill a female quota or anything (they have more than enough character for that already), they just did it because she was the face at the time.
Then again, all the other Cameos RE has done were timed with promotion, MvC3 for RE5, and the Project x Zone games with Revelations and 6.
MVCI doesn't count cause it didn't make any Capcom fan happy... not even the Megaman or Darkstalkers ones, and the whole game was a bunch of reuset assets.
Chris have been lucky with his timing in each Capcom Crossovers, but again, by the popularity point, and the timing, it seems it's Leon's time. And I say this as someone who prefer Jill.
But hey, Jill, Chris and Clare may be Leon's alts in the end.
fuck Yea Forums, they don't know whats best for them. sometimes you need to spoon feed the right character
the only icon we are currently missing from smash
I guess you are right. The fact that I'm a fan might have clouded my judgment.
>Pheonixfags are so angry that they need to create fake polls to pretend that people like him more then the most iconic capcom character ever
user, Reimu isn't even winning now. Why are you trying?
Doomguy
don't care about the other three
Unless they go for everyone is an Alt approach like with Hero, in which case the rep would be Leon at face value, due to the promotional timing, and then the rest of the cast would be his alts.
At least, that's my hope, I want Jill and Leon both, and wouldn't say no to Chris and Clare coming as well.
Why are you trying? I'm just hosting a poll.
Doom and Crash. Resident Evil sucks and I don't care about this Ryu fellow
>fake polls
Why do people insist on this delusion? Occam's razor is a thing, y'know. Maybe it's more likely that more people voted for Phoenix Wright rather than there being a complicated web of discord servers, fake strawpolls, and shitposting.
It doesn't seem like this. I lurk here for a while now and even upon the release of RE2 Remake nobody talked much about it.
>Almost every single Resident Evil game is on Switch
>We know DLC is being picked by Switch game releases
GOLLY GEE WHO COULD IT BE?
The poll seems highly stuff once again, only in our favour this time. Regardless, here I am.
No-one would've voted for "Hero", it would've been a specific DQ character. Also looks like the ballot vote collections were from Western fanbases.
>more western characters
>even upon the release of RE2 Remake nobody talked much about it.
Is this bait?
>switch releases
>persona gets a spinoff
>no sign of banjo at all
Oh, but hey. Phoenix got a trilogy release too, didn't he?
>Most iconic Capcom character
>Has never been in MvC
Rare Replay is coming to switch moron. And Resident evil got a LOT more then a trilogy. Why do you think they made that high budget Resident Evil trailer for E3 just for ports? Because Smash advertising is about to take effect
>most iconic capcom character ever
Mega Man, Ryu, and Chunners all say fuck off
unironically Master Chief
or doomguy
I just want a huge dude with guns
>The game that cut fucking Megaman is known for being retarded with roster selection
Yes, and?
boring
>Leon and Phoenix has turned into this month's 'us vs them' bullshit
You faggots love to fight over nothing, a real Leonchad and Phoenixchad would be happy with either because any Capcom fighter is going to be good
>Rumors
Can’t wait for the MCC to come to Switch and Master Chief to get in Smash with it.
Megaman and Ryu can't sell games to save their lives, and Chun Li is a fucking second banana to Ryu. Leon's series is the highest grossing Capcom IP of all time, and Leon is the fan favorite of that series.
Why the fuck would I care about any random game with the capcom name attached?
because unlike you people actually play video games
unironically based
Nigga the guy who leaked it also leaked ALL OF FUCKING E3
Both of you... stop. You are embarrassment to the Capcom fanbase... and it's bad enough to be part of the that fanbase with Capcom being Capcom all the time
>all this fighting over Phoenix Wright vs. Leon Kennedy when none of them are getting in the game in the first place
Western rosterfags are completely mentally ill.
You mean Marvel vs Whatever Capcom wants to shill plus some ramdom retro picks just because?
>if you don't play some random ass shovelware VN you don't play vidya
???
here is your Taito rep bro.
Quit being so aggressive user. I bet you were into the Banjo vs Steve shit a few months ago
>Resident Evil isn't getting into Smash
Of course it is.
>random ass shovelware VN
why so much seething over a pointless poll?
Not anyone of the guys arguing against Ace Attorney (I, as a RE supporter, fear he can pull off a Banjo), but Nintendo's last E3 was suspicious.
They put a lot of effort in selling a lot of RE ports, when they could just have leave them for the sizzle reel. That give me flashbacks from the DQ XI promotion some Directs back, and that is a full upgrade of the game in comparison to the RE ports, that are just... ports.
Ryu and Crash
lmao keep dreaming Sudafag
Honestly, the end of that shitshow had some nasty consequences on this threads. Without Steve to hate, or even Erdrick to debate, now everyone is the enemy.
>Seething this hard over a more popular and requested character
why?
Doomguy and Ryu.
Ayup. Seems suspicious that almost every single mainline RE game is on switch. The only missing ones are 2, 3 and kinda 7 (which has the streaming option) and we all know they aren't on switch because it can't handle REmake 2, 7, or the upcoming REmake 3
Leon & Porky
Leon and Crash
You're forgetting someone
>Leon gets in
>alongside him they announced a (original version) Resident Evil 2 and 3 full HD remaster
People would fucking cum
you're making Leon chads look like fags, chill
>still seething
Crash and DoomGuy ftw
>Leon """"chads""""
They could even add Code Veronica HD just because... though knowing Capcom, they may just sell it apart full price.
If I HAD to choose two...
Jill and Ryu
>Resident Evil gets a character, but it's Leon with no Jill alt in sight
I dread this future.
That would be better as Jill is better left as an echo in the next game where she can have her own animations
Leon "chads" ARE fags.
>Resident Evil gets a rep
>It's Nemesis
Man wrightfags are nothing but anti-RE posters now
Got any proof to back up that claim, Sakurai?
Worst part? I am all in for a lets have everyone be Alts scenario. But if we have to only have ONE rep, Jill is the better choice. Mix her standard RE moveset with the meele options she got on 5 (or, in simple, mix her MvC 2 and her MvC3 movesets), and she is the none villain character with the best moveset potential.
I really hope we get the alts for everyone though.
Let's look at the logic here:
>Doomslayer:
+Decently Popular
+Moveset potential
-People who play Doom do not play SSB
>Leon/Jill
+Household names
-No real moveset
-People who play Resident Evil do not play SSB
>Crash Bandicoot
+Household name
+Crossover appeal
-Limited moveset potential
>Ryu Hayabusa
+Moveset potential
-Is basically the Captain Falcon of Tecmo, languishing in a Fanservice series while his own games wither and die
Would be a crate or wumpa fruit
Do you have any proof four yours?
On the speculation side, the timing is just right for RE, as well as the way the DLC is being handle so far.
One of the top franchises in gaming with Smash-level pedigree.
Fucking this. It's no question they rigged the poll. Funny how Phoenix is somehow miles ahead in first despite being 4th in the last round??
>No moveset
>RE fans don't play smash
Are you fucking retarded? Nintendo fans are the main consumer of RE titles
Doom Slayer and Leon. What the fuck is crash gonna do? Spin? Ryu is cool though
Crash can
>spin
>super spin/hover
>wumpa launcher
>body slam
>jetpack
>drop crates
He's got more then enough
>People who play Doom do not play SSB
>People who play Resident Evil do not play SSB
on what planet?
>Leon "chads"
seething samefag
People just enjoys Ace Attorney all of a sudden?
>Bandana Dee faggots now clamoring their poll is the "real deal"
Imagine being this obsessed over people not liking him. At least Leon and Phoenix wouldn't stoop this low compare to that nigger in a bandana.
I ain’t gotta prove shit when I ain’t making bold claims about a series definitely getting in Smash Bros. I have no clue who the last two characters are gonna be, and neither does anyone in these threads, making definite statements about who the last two are gonna be is retarded, and all folks are going to do are turn Leonfags, Wrightfags, Undeadfags, etc. into the new Stevies.
Nah, Ryu would be worse than that. He'd be another damn Fire Emblem style character.
Leon & Jill aren't really household names. Their game is a household name but none of the characters are, not even Chris. Lara Croft Tombraider is a household name, but I don't want her in.
>samefag
NO WAY
>samefag still crying about Bandana Dee
cope
>RE
>No real moveset
Villager, Wii fit Trainer, dug hunt, and Mr game and watch say hi, while also crying for not having a moveset as cool as the one Jill had in MvC2... also Chis wasn't ban on 3, and Jill got some sick moves there too.
>People who play Resident Evil do not play SSB
This one is so BS that I don't even know where to start. I will just remind you how many RE games are on Nintendo consoles, selling just fine and dandy, and the fact that the same people who bought them in their Nintendo consoles, are even more likely to buy Smash as well.
which of these are most likely to be the next ashleyfag/steveposter?
>Leon & Jill aren't really household names
They've both appeared in multiple massive hollywood movies. Yes they're fucking household names
This
Doom Slayer and Crash
>Nah, Ryu would be worse than that. He'd be another damn Fire Emblem style character.
youtube.com
Add a Souls character and there you go, these are the most likely choices unless they do something OUTLANDISH like adding a guy from a new IP or Master Chief.
>Leon & Jill aren't really household names. Their game is a household
Jus like Dragon Quest then, but whit characters even more popular around the world.
>Crash
>-Limited moveset potential
see
LMAO, no. The game characters are literal background side characters in the movies. Normies only know the mary sue played by Jovovich.
Travis
Touchdown
>-Limited moveset potential
If Mashed potato Samurai is willing to look outside of the N Sane trilogy he could easily take his basic attacks/tilts/air/ect from Titans/Mind over Mutant.
None of these characters will be in but Doom, Reimu, and Soulsfags are operating on the highest levels of delusion.
>limited moveset potential
Duck Hunt Dog literally only jumped, held up a dead duck, and laughed at you.
cope
I just want Travis
>Crash
>Limited moveset potential
Cringe and yikespilled. They made a moveset out of a plant. A PLANT.
Leonfags are definitely up there if we’re being frank about it. His popularity as a character is severely overestimated, so even if Resident Evil were to get in as a series, it’d be a character like Chris who had the sheer games to back him or Nemesis who acted as a mascot for a while who’d be more likely to get in; funny one-liner “no way fag” man is down near the bottom of the prospective picks as far as Nintendo executives are concerned.
how so
Cope with what? I'm 100% correct. The OC mary sue played by Mila Jovovich completely stole the spotlight from the Redfields and everyone else in those Resident Evil movies.
>he doesn't realize Palico will be the playable Monster Hunter rep
Legit thought he was a lock until E3
Yep still cope. Leon especially is a gaming icon
>-People who play Doom do not play SSB
le fuck
Stop me if you've heard this one before. The next character will be one that was overlooked in speculation yet Yea Forums will tout the character as always having been obvious.
I'm glad the most popular picks aren't trash, & that I'd actually like them in smash.
oh fuck it rhymes
this is bait
No point, you guys will just compare your two faceless player inserts to Bayonetta for superficial reasons that don’t work if you think about it for longer than 2 seconds. Shouldn’t even have to explain why Reimu and Doom don’t work.
You're not even man enough to admit when you're wrong, and resort to petty zoomer insults in desperation. "Chads" you are not. Try again, Leontard.
So far, that only happen with Joker, and even if I will never be able to prove it, I FUCKING CALL IT that ATLUS would get a rep... I wasn't truly expecting Joker, but I still take it as a personal win.
Here's cheers to all potential fighters, I hope we can put our differences aside and be happy any of these characters get in at all.
Yep still cope. You're in denial about one of the most iconic faces in videogames
so you're just unhappy about them
got it
>source: dude trust me
Why do all 5 dlc characters have to be third party?
Can't DLC 4 be a Sword/Shield rep and DLC 5 be some obscure retro character like Mach Rider?
Agreed.
I made a huge list of fighters that Yea Forums wanted and made a document of it. One of those fucks is on the Fighter's Pass, but we don't know it.
>So far, that only happened with Joker
Well, I'll give you Banjo. Erdrick talk exploded because of a really damning datamine.
>says Reimu is in
>calls other people deluded
No shit, Yea Forums has worked themselves into a frenzy over these characters. Kratos, Lara Croft, Lloyd are all more likely than rooty tooty point and shooty and the dark souls of platform fighters.
Hayabusa and either Doom Slayer or Crash. I'd have picked the Capcom rep instead of those last two if it was Phoenix Wright instead of an RE character.
>guys lets all be nice
>btw here is a pic of my most wanted so you know that MY fanbase is the nicest and best one :))
yikes and cringe
>Nintendo fans are the main consumer of RE titles
Yes, because RE5, RE6, RE7, and RE2make all did gangbusters on Nintendo platforms
I will put it this way, outside this shit hole that it's Yea Forums, not real Capcom fan would be truly mad if either Phoenix, Leon/Jill, Dante or even Amateratsu make it into the roster. So that's that.
Best of lucks to all the other possible picks.
This, we aren't in the dark ages of Dragon Quest and Banjo versus Steve speculation anymore.
>comes in last place with the fewest votes
>s-stop making fun of me, please cope
Seeing that you're the only one actually mad enough to respond, I find that hilarious and pathetic.
>people thought snake was cut forever
>come ultimate and everybody KNEW that snake and simon would be added the whole time
>Nintendo fans are the main consumer of RE titles
no they aren't. remake 1 flopped so badly as a nintendo exclusive that they changed genres entirely afterwards and went back to being multiplat.
I'd love to hear your reasoning why
Even before the datamine, the "Square is getting a rep" leak was highly speculated, and the names Erdrick, Luminary and even Slime mentioned a lot. Sora was rather popular as well, but the datamine only turned into a Sora vs Erdick thing,
>I FUCKING CALL IT that ATLUS would get a rep... I wasn't truly expecting Joker, but I still take it as a personal win.
This
I was absolutely certain that Jack Frost was going to be DLC to promote SMT V
Too bad Atlus doesn't care about that series anymore or any of its other series because it isn't Persona
I like Ace Attorney and I'm not a dick. I guess I'm cringe
That, it's indeed BS, even when Snake return was leaked, nobody believe it. I mean, the leak also mentioned Ridley and the "everyone is back" gimick, so who could truly believe that?
Though, when the same guy who leaked that, also mention Simon, people starting taking Simon more seriously.
Based.
>switch game, switch game, switch streamed game, the single fucking one not on switch (could easy change)
lmao. Reminder that the RE series has sold over 20 million on nintendo systems
4 specials do not a character make. Off the top of my head he still has the ground slam and dash slide, but that's two moves when he needs 4 more aerials, 3 tilts, 3 smash attacks and a jab.
Friendly reminder that sales mean nothing here. Do you need reminding who got in out of Steve or Banjo?
>Kratos
Should be obvious; goty, new design is not offensive for Smash, aesthetically works in the game well enough.
>Lara Croft
No matter how much Yea Forums seethes she’s still one of the most well known female characters on vidya of all time.
>Lloyd
Less likely but he’s already been considered in the past and it’s a 3rd party pass
>Dark Souls
Zero personality character, no canon voice or noises he can make, just a basic suit of armor with a sword and magic.
>Doom
Clashes absurdly hard with Smash aesthetically, no personality you can portray through Smash, character loses essence of what it is without gore.
>"Switch game" that hasn't released on Switch and came out in 2009, and didn't come out on the Wii
>"Switch game" that hasn't released on Switch and came out in 2012, and didn't come out on the Wii or Wii U
>Switch game that flopped horribly compared to the PS4, Xbone, and PC versions
Nice Switch games with great sales you have there
>Reminder that the RE series has sold over 20 million on nintendo systems
Considering Resident Evil as a video game franchise has sold a total of 90 million copies, this would mean that 70 million copies were sold on other platforms, which would mean "Nintendo fans are the main consumer of RE titles" is objectively false, as 22.2% of a consumer base is not the "main consumer".
She's fucking in
Every dog has its day and this one can literally summon the sun.
Yes, but Dragon Quest vs Kingdom Hearts was a thing... yeah, Dragon Quest is huge in japan, both in all the polls, even in Japan, Sora was the "Banjo" of Square, taking the lead over the bigger franchise that was DQ.
Don't get me wrong, I was an Erdrick fag to the end anyway.
Besides, Capcom already got their Banjo (Megaman) and their Master Chief (Ryu) in the game... RE is still the most logical next step.
But* in all the polls.
>Banjo gets in despite being from a dead franchise and no new releases because of fan demand
>Fan demand is partially inspired by people's desire to see the character revived a la K. Rool
I dunno if characters like Crash really have that same appeal. There's plenty of Crash games right now. The collection literally sold millions. You can get your Crash fix in lots of places, and Activision would probably want a lot for the character (since he's clearly valuable).
I don't know if that makes sense but basically too MUCH exposure/relevance seems like it'd work against a character at this point.
>expect Reimu to barely reach 50 votes overall and stay at the bottom of the poll
>she actually makes it to the final four
Good stuff.
crash and ryu obviously
Would they go for a mix of nuLara and OG Lara, I wonder?
>RE is still the most logical next step.
Because sales?
Unlikely, the "original" desings are reserved for First Party, the third party characters get either full retro design, or their most recent one. Sometimes both if possible, like with Bayonetta. I mean, she is not really retro, but I guess that same logic could work in future Third Party characters.
Well, yes, popularity is still huge as well, but as I said, Capcom already game their fan favorite among Nintendo fans, and their Flagship character on Ryu. For the next rep, RE has characters just as popular, and bigger sales, is like combining the Banjo and Hero arguments all in one.
Already gave*
and just to be clear, I mean Megaman as the fan favorite.
RE was never popular in the polls, however. It's not like Banjo at all. It's not very likely we'll even get another Capcom character this time around.
>Kratos
you forgot "first-party Sony character" which automatically puts him out
>Lara Croft
just because she's popular doesn't mean she'd make for a good addition, especially with how limited she is in her games. More people know her for how many gruesome deaths are in the TR reboot than her actual capabilities
>Lloyd
He's gonna be a mii costume again if anything
>Dark Souls
>Zero personality character
that applies to a fair amount of fighters already in
>no canon voice or noises he can make
he has a voice though?
>just a basic suit of armor with a sword and magic
he's an undead with a variety of weapons and abilities that you could barely scratch the surface of in a moveset, he'd work fine
>Doom
>Clashes absurdly hard with Smash aesthetically
not really, his classic design is colorful enough to work fine
>no personality you can portray through Smash
he could easily be portrayed as tense and agitated
>character loses essence of what it is without gore
not in the least, you can portray a violent personality without resorting to blood and guts splattering
>Clashes absurdly hard with Smash aesthetically
>character loses essence of what it is without gore
youtu.be
Reminder that Doomguy was in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and he worked fine
what a bro
SO HERE I AM
>It's not very likely we'll even get another Capcom
It's honestly the most likely scenario until proven other wise. Capcom has proven to be a company easy and eager to work with Smash, with highly profitable IPs that would sell well as DLC. I am supporting RE, but DMC and Ace Attorney would do just fine as well, and selling DLC is the only thing Nintendo really cares, and having a company easy to negotiate with, is a huge bonus.
From there, is just the same logic of Hero and Joker: Resident Evil is a franchise that will make Nintendo fans happy, even if they weren't openly asking for it, while making headlines almost as big as Cloud, Snake and Banjo did (almost), and will still promote not only the current Re2 remake for Capcom, but the upcoming RE games, which are all but confirmed. Nintendo also gets to sell some RE ports, which is just a bonus, alongside the DLC sales and promotion for Ultimate.
That franchise is a hugely under rated crossover, isn't?
I'd hardly call the Tony Hawk series underrated, but as a crossover? Considering it's crossed over with Shrek, DOOM, Spiderman, X-Men, and Star Wars, I'd say the crossover aspect of the series is incredibly underrated.
If you add Master Chief and Crash you will have all the big console mascots represented within Smash.
Add Gordon Freeman, and we would reach the event horizon of crossovers.
>Clashes absurdly hard with Smash aesthetically, no personality you can portray through Smash, character loses essence of what it is without gore.
what is with smash threads and doom tertiaries?
Would be fucking amazing but too good to happen.
Leon and doom
Crash is the worst pick of the decade
No problems with ryu tho
Are we getting another cartoony animal like Crash or will it be two more humans?
This started pretty recently. Ever since E3 ended in fact. If you read most of the thread, you will notice everyone has something to say against very much all the possible picks.
Losing Steve as a heel made a number out of this threads.
Crash and Leon
>Crash
>Cereal Box Mascot
>Represents a Console
No.
Every time someone says Doom is all about blood and guts and that is solely that only thing its about rather than primarily being about high-octane high-speed run and gun action I want to stab a guy
>no canon voice or noises he can make
every Souls protag has a voice in and even multiple VAs in 3, and before you argue that there isn't a "canon" one you could make the same argument for fucking Robin
Both would be cool, but we technically have Banjo for Microsoft and Snake, Cloud and Joker for Sony (associated)
Is the closest thing we will ever get to a playstation rep.
>buzzword
>According to Yea Forums, suggesting a second MS rep is likely due to Microsoft already being present in Smash and them missing their mascot is delusional because of a made up rule that no 3rd party can get more than 1 rep on DLC. And the idea of a Namco rep that is popular with Smash fans is delusional because suddenly the ballot doesn’t matter.
>Also according to Yea Forums, Doomguy, Leon, Chosen Undead and whatever other character is being forced on the board at the moment is a foregone conclusion because of how popular they are and there is no way Nintendo would pass up the chance to add them to Smash.
I am just a Mii Costume theory supporter who also wants Ryu and Doom Guy somehow.
I wouldn't say no to Master Chief though.
doing well on the ballot does not guarantee a character is 100% in
I never said it did, but it makes them more likely than a character no one asked for. And before you jump to Hero or Joker. The director of Persona 5 stated that Sakurai wanted Joker in and Hero got in because a Dragon Quest protagonists was such a popular request at ballot time.
Today I will remind them.
No Mortal Kombat character is getting in, the games haven't sold in Japan in 20 years.
The problem with MK is more of this and less of the moveset. They worked just fine on Injustice after all.
Still, is a shame Japan takes so much priority on this, cause for once the west is the biggest market, and MK is HUGE.
They're in.
>Miles, Apollo and Athena are all alts like Hero
Imagine. It wouldn't work with the psyche-lock ability, but still
>it's another "Yea Forums thinks a character is confirmed just because they have a game on Switch" without considering whether or not they are a significant part of gaming history or actually have moveset potential
I guarantee none of you faggots that keep pushing this Nintendo History narrative can give a single sourced quote in which Sakurai or even Nintendo ever says this to be needed.
Almost all of us think on the moveset.
As for the gaming history part, for the most part the same, though Bayonetta and Joker have made that highly debatable.
>Spyro is in
>genre of gaming not currently recognized in smash
>unique personality, expressive
>menagerie of characters that would be perfect for spirits
>unique minigames to pull movesets from
>easy to design alt palettes for
Yeah, I’m thinking he’s in.
doomguy has all those things but he's still not getting in
He's in!
absolutely fucking based and blasterpilled
>Ace Attorney is relevent and popular, g-guys!!
>still sold like shit on DS and not even on Wikipedia's Top 70 Best Selling DS games while shit like Spectrobes and High School Musical are
>Anime was panned, even by the fans
>Capcom didn't even bother to release any of them physically in the west since the Layton crossover
>both "The Great Ace Attorney" games and Investigations 2 didn't even get localized
>didn't even get shoved back into MvC:I
>B-b-b-but RE is generic shooty bang bang man!!! phoenix is in!!!!!
>character loses essence of what it is without gore
Doomguy is not defined by gore, he's defined by running fast and shooting big guns.
Overruled. This thread is over.
He said there would be a doom-related surprise for us at quakecon this year. Smash isn't unveiling a newcomer at quakecon. It's probably a multi-plat Doom collection with 64 being exclusive to Switch. Doomguy is my #1 most wanted but he's really not that likely I don't think.
>People honestly acting like gore isn't intrinsically tied to Doom when Carmack himself admitted as much.
theverge.com
> Carmack says that modern games that let you inflict violence on innocent civilians can make him uncomfortable, but the fact that you were essentially killing monsters made Doom's violence easier to stomach. "The violence is central to what this entire game genre is about," he says
>"We were consciously making a powerful, violent game to affect people," explains Carmack. "It wasn’t to be something that you could just play for a little while and then forget that you ever played. We did our job right because people remember it 20 years from the time that we wrote it. We made a mark on people, we left an impact. It was something that people cared about."
>Dovahkiin
>Good
I mean, he surely is not the Arisen, not even the Luminary, but he is far from the worst.
I mean being a better pick than Joker or Piranha Plant is a super low bar to clear
Better than fucking Gatornigger at least.
Nostaliga faggots should KYS asap. No one gives two shits or knows about some faggot gator from 1935 when your parents weren't divorced.
Literally should have never got in smash. Bayonetta got in because she was relevant and a recent game release, not some literal who green shit.
>inb4 muh rob muh pacman muh duck hunt muh banjo
Icon characters of different eras or mascot characters. No one gives two shits about literal who the gator from
Thanks doc.
Are you a false flagger or something? I see you in like half the rosterfag threads I see.
If they could add a piranha plant.
They could add a frog.
Based and traffic pilled.
Imagine saving an image of a pudgy gator on your personal computer & naming that image "ugly putrid fat fuck".
Say it with me now...
>I see you in like half the rosterfag threads I see.
There is your answer. Even if it was legit, that dedication is at the levels of a Steve shitposter.
Doomslayer for sure and it's a toss up between Jill, Leon, and Crash.
UGLY PUTRID FAT FUCK
I say a TNT crate or Wumpa fruit
crash better have either a low poly skin or coco or fake crash as alts
If you really think about it, he actually makes a lot of sense
If they can add Joker with a gun and Banjo they can add Crash Badicoot and Doomguy
Doomfags will say literally anything to make it seem like the character would not be blatantly out of place.
As good user remind in us earlier I can't believe there is people who still believes anything would be "out of place" when the first third party character ever, was Snake.
If Sakurai ever added an anime character in this game, it should definitely be Deku.
The developers of Tony Hawk aren't Nintendo or Sakurai.
You're deluded if you think a Resi character came close to Phoenix in the ballot. Leon's name didn't come up at all back then.
You mean the guy who explicitly doesn't use guns in Smash because it was considered too violent and comes from a series with among other things a guy who reads your memory card? Oh and he's in Tony Hawk as a joke character where he doesn't need to use get any attention, ok.
see
Metal Gear also wasn't founded on gore.
Doom Slayer and Crash
The other picks are great but we already have too many sword characters to fit Ryu (assuming he’s using his blade) and Leon sounds too much like a Snake echo fighter to be unique. Plus Doomguy would kick so much ass in his reveal if he ever got in.
>Refute me
I already did threads ago. But here I go again.
>started as a digital pet toy, barely even a video game
Mr. G&W, the Virtual Pets and Game & Watches are the same type of machines.
Just give me Dante... please...
>people in this thread really think the pass will end with two western pandering male characters
I will laugh if they announce two literal who waifus at the end of the fighter's pass.
Do you think they'd care if the pass was a sausage fest? I can't see it.
>people unironically believe shit like lloyd and heihachi have a chance

Who the fuck is lloyd?

remove all of the nuFE characters as they add nothing to the game
Anyone else think Cuphead would be a great fit for Smash Bros?
>Amaterasu
>a literal who to Japan
I know what you mean user, but this still sounds really stupid.
Crash is literally just Banjo with downs syndrome. What makes you think he would ever, ever get in.
>Doesn't need an explanation. You're a retard if you expect Sans and brain dead if you expect Frisk/Chara
No, explain this.
there's no more worthy female characters for Smash
Lucina
Marth
Chrom
Robin
Roy
Hector
Ike
Corrin
Lyn
Tiki
Grima
Leif
Celica
Ephraim
Edelgard
At least use a pic of him with an axe.
Doom was never founded on gore either, i hate this meme, even if doomguy isn't likely his games are not about the gore like MK is
If even a small percentage people in the West think that Reimu is getting in, you know damn well that the feeling is amplified in Japan.
A bit outdated but here's the japanese poll results. They look pretty trustworthy so far.
People who keep saying Banjo is a nobody in Japan are really dumb
I like Reimu, but strictly speaking, you can make that statement about virtually any character.
The thing is with fan polls, is only fags participate in them so you're automatically missing the Chad vote.
they're all boring and expected, gimme something wild and crazy and actually fucking out there instead of a bunch of lame shill picks or "I WANT IT REALLY BAD" indie stuff
>Sora
>Steve still surviving in Japan
>two more gokus
>Leon nowhere to be seen, while Phoenix is still there
what does this mean
Look at the date dumbass
Sans wouldn't make an optional final boss UT's rep over the protagonist. The very idea of him fighting is a spoiler, in of itself. Sakurai seems pretty keen with being spoiler free, which is why Joker gets whatever the fuck the Mementos stage is and Hero and Banjo get starting areas for theirs. For Frisk, the idea of him fighting seems to go against the idea point of the game. It'd come off as incredibly lazy to just hand wave it but I also couldn't imagine them working a pseudo morality system that doesn't feel incredibly contrived. That's just my take on it. I'd like to see him in, mostly for the music, but I just don't see it happening.
Nice Crash render, sauce?
Crash & Doom Slayer easy
She's treated on the same level as Saber in Japan actually
Basically their Sans and Steve
There are a few who do unironically want her though
By Sans, I meant Sakurai.
Literally everyone who plays video games beyond FIFA, 2K, and GTA knows about Megalovania. Sans being in Smash wouldn't even be a spoiler at this point. Not to mention, Nintendo went out of its way to ensure Undertale got on the Switch, and also showcased Deltarune. Nintendo isn't blind to the popularity of Toby Fox's work, that much is clear to see.
Undertale content in Smash Bros isn't as unlikely as you think it is, or as some people desperately want it to be.
>literally everyone else in this image besides hero and banjo either got spirited, mii'd or is straight up not possible this pass
Damn
Marth, Ike & Robin stay; Camilla takes Corrin’s spot & Lyn is upgraded
>Edelgard
lol imagine still pushing her when Dimitri and Claude are more popular
especially Claude, buncha fujos go wet for him like Chrom
>Claude
pls no
fuck faggots and fuck fujoshits
I want Goku in Smash, one reason being I love Dragon Ball Z. The second being it would destroy so many smashfags, they would feel Sakurai betrayed them or some shit... Would be great to watch the fall out.
This is a predictions poll, not a want poll
Gohan and Android 17 already cucked you out
stay man Gokuck
Vegeta is better
If Yea Forums and the rest of the west are anything to go by, predictions and wants are the same thing.
Can't find a pic of him with an axe.
So I just photoshopped it.
is it any different to wanting?
the nips creamed themselves once Erdrick dramatically appeared on screen
Do you really think that Japs are such sheep that their 11th most overall wanted character would be "Pokemon Sword/Shield rep" when literally no new Pokemon were known at the time?
It is a spoiler, no matter how popular it is. To my knowledge, none of the third party fighters have any stages outside of starting areas. And besides that, there's not a series represented that doesn't have its main character playable. I doubt Sakurai would make an exception just because a YouTube video has a lot of views. It would either be Frisk or nothing and my point still stands on that character in my last post.
Unlike Bomberman, Taizo Hori can do a lot of stuff. He can dig, drill, expand enemies, jackhammer, shoot and drop boulders on you. Definitely so great moveset potential.
Nobody wants that gay-ass shit.
You're aware there's 2 characters left, right?
I mean I know you're an anti-reimufag so we have to be patient and shit but come on
user, we are talking about the same people that gets interested in a product as long it has "New" titled in the front.
plus shit like Rex and Springman was at high before Ultimate was even announced and released.
You look at the state of the Pokemon franchise and tell me that's impossible.
I would put Reimu higher than other indies in terms of chance desu
he cant even keep a wife
Dante was even questioned for Smash, so that puts him above Phoenix
boards.fireden.net
Literal autism. You're aware posting this in every thread won't make it more accurate right?
>he think it was weird for Phoenix and not Mega Man and Ryu
piss
off
>no arguments
As always, I suppose.
Nah.
I don't see any part of that statement claiming otherwise, user.
>Calling people out on having no argument
>When half of your post is plebbit buzzwords
You're trying to make up rules that don't exist.
Beyond that, Sans is beyond being spoiled at this point in the game, no pun intended. He's been meme'd for years now, and normies are even using him for memes on Instagram and Twitter.
How many times will "rules" have to be broken before you all realize that the only rule that matters is that the character must originate from a video game?
Phoenix wouldn't even be a trophy in Brawl like Kyle Hyde was if Capcom got a character dude
what kind of mouthbreather made that retarded venn diagram
>section for western characters
That's the point user
Sakurai on twitter implied Banjo was the only one in the pass
Show me the tweet right now.
God after Hero and Banjo these bandwagon speculations have no real base to them. All insiders are silent and there is no real rumors at all. And the fact that it's all just the same characters getting meme'd makes me feel like you guys are just trying to do what Dragon Quest and Banjo fans did by spamming the board with their characters, but unlike them you guys don't have any backing to these characters. It's all always the same shit though. Crash, Doomguy, Ry2, or RE people with a hint of Reimu sometimes. Smash speculation is boring now.
It's been the case for every series represented and isn't a bullshit rule like 'no western characters allowed'. I'm pretty sure Sakurai has gone on record saying something about this before. All you're saying is that Sans, a character that no doubt spoils the game, will get in over the protagonist, Frisk, because of Twitter memes and Youtube videos? I'm pretty sure Waluigi would be playable, if that was the case.
It's pic related but I wanted AC and BD to be possible.
>Sakurai admitted to have feared for years he wouldn't direct even a western composer for Smash
>not even a trace of Minecraft as much Sakurai loves that shit
you can keep bringing up that Pete Hines quote but it means little to nothing if you look at how they handled it
smashfags are so toxic they'll eventually kill themselves at this rate
>Company already got a character this pass
Shit, when did atlus start owning the Sonic IP?
ok that makes it slightly better but you need to label your sets better
>still doesn't refute any of my arguments
>is probably a Wrightfag in denial
Kek
this is exactly why Sakurai said its better to move on to the next (than jerking off who might be part of Season 2)
Atlus is owned by Sega. We even had Sonic costumes released alongside Joker
user "literal who", "anime", "no explanation needed", "retard" and "Steve" aren't arguments, you're aware of this right?
Atlus is owned by SEGA and SEGA Sammy
Don't remind him
Crash and Slayer
I'm saying that Sans has so much exposure in pop culture that having him be playable wouldn't matter much in the context of spoiling Undertale. And also, being a pattern fag is no better than being a "rule" fag.
What?
This means literally nothing.
I'd say Jill is the best bet out of all of them. She's not only more iconic for being in the first RE game and the memes but she's also already been in fighting games. Plus Capcom's already on board with Smash. Leon would still be cool but I think Jill still edges him out on popularity and recognition.
Honestly I never even considered Ryu but with the original Ninja Gaidens on nintendo it makes a lot of sense, and despite several sword users I can see his move set still being pretty unique. I think he'd be a really neat addition actually.
Doomguy would be cool and certainly fits the gaming icon thing but with Doom being PARTICULARLY violent it may be stretch. I'd still like to see it though.
I think Crash is the longshot. Among reasons others have said I just don't know if he has enough variety for a interesting moveset. He jumps, spins and has crates. Sure they could pull more stuff to work but it feels like they'd be reaching.
>“Company reps”
>“Genre reps”
>“Design reps” (Ex:mascot character, Eastern Swordsman, Armored ranged weapons users)
>“Western reps”
>“Eastern reps”
>“Worldwide reps”
I wish “rep” faggotry would end.
Dante would be better than the shit we had to watch rosterfags circkejerk over
hopefully he'll be swayed in like Erdrick/Hero was
Just remember it says "the first time" as opposed to "the only time", This strengthens the chances for another western rep.
>She's not only more iconic
No she's not.
>but she's also already been in fighting games
This means nothing.
>Jill still edges him out on popularity and recognition
Absolutely not.
> it feels like they'd be reaching.
>saying this when you're using Jill's appearance in Marvel vs. Capcom to make her seem more likely
>when they literally have summoning zombies
This kind of means something though considering Sakurai obviously had to contact the teams for all FP characters beforehand. Him making a big deal out of having to direct a western team is not a good sign when it comes to getting another western character in the pass when he already contacted everyone.
Then again seeing your other replies you're supporting unironically a literal meme character, so this is probably going nowhere.
i agree
people need to quit making up imaginary quotas to filter what choice they want to delude themselves for Smash
Ah, you're a Reimufag, gotcha.
Clever thinking, user.
>I like Leon more so he's more famous
More people know the name Jill Valentine than Leon Kennedy, your denial doesn't change that.
>Then again seeing your other replies you're supporting unironically a literal meme character, so this is probably going nowhere.
I never personally supported Sans, I'm trying to get other people to realize that an Undertale rep is more likely than anyone gives it credit for.
I want Crash Bandicoot, Leon Kennedy, and Travis Touchdown. And Travis is pretty much a no-go.
imagine even bringing up Shitlux as a likely choice
he's as likely for a promo spirit like 3H protagonists are
makes me wish Rundasbros were still around not putting up this fake as shit
I just gave examples of "arguments" from your post that weren't arguments. Reimu so happens to be one of these characters you just put in your post because you didn't like them. But oh wait, that's probably the case for all of them actually.
>More people know the name Jill Valentine than Leon Kennedy, your denial doesn't change that.
No, they don't. Especially not now when normies ate up the Resident Evil 2 Remake. Your waifu shit means nothing.
>I'm trying to get other people to realize that an Undertale rep is more likely than anyone gives it credit for.
Nigger what? Undertale is even more overestimated in terms of likelihood than fucking Doom. Also if it gets a rep it's gonna be Frisk anyway.
Geralt.
>Nigger what? Undertale is even more overestimated in terms of likelihood than fucking Doom. Also if it gets a rep it's gonna be Frisk anyway.
It's really not, only when people meme it with characters like Shrek or Goku. And no, it wouldn't be Frisk, but that's not an argument I want to tumble into.
Originated from a series of books.
Do you even realize how many fuckers unironically believe Frisk is the most likely indie rep? Even though it completely lacks legacy?
And yes it would be Frisk not your plebbit meme lmao.
Dracula and Palutena derived from non-fiction as well
expecting Sans is like expecting Rocket Slime over Hero or Jack Frost over any SMT/Persona/Devil Summoner protag
I'll admit, you got to shitpost a little to draw in replies but I'm open for debating why the characters I listed have a good chance of not making it in. Considering I actually had to give an explanation to that other user why Undertale wouldn't get a rep kind of has me worried, though. Rosterfags throw all logic out the window and seem to be in a state of constant delusion.
Kill theoryfaggotry while we're at it too
>people collectively forgot 4's mii releases and now they've deluded themselves in thinking costume theory is a real thing
catch you all in Round 2 when they drop capcom/namco shit because square can't carry a wave on their own
I don't think Undertale is getting in (at least not before Touhou does) but a lot of these shouldn't even be in your post considering the justification you gave is fucking nothing. Remove all "literally who" or similar plebbit garbage for starters. Then remove Undertale if you're not willing to actually put arguments in your post.
If your post isn't meant to be taken seriously then stop fucking spamming it everywhere. Everyone already saw it and cringed at it at this point.
I believe Dracula is public domain and Palutena is an original character. It ain't like Playstation All Stars putting fucking Zeus as a playable fighter.
Nothing personnel kid
youtube.com
>The newest game had him in it so he has to be more famous!
>I don't have an ACTUAL argument so I must call him a waifu fag!
Leon is very popular but you're either baiting or a total fucking moron if you seriously believe he's more famous than Jill. Jill sandwich and Master of Unlocking alone are some of the most famous memes in gaming history, not to mention all of Jill's appearances outside the series and more games in it. Now I understand you're gay for Leon's silver ghost, but your love doesn't change facts.
they took down some DMC music and lead to nothing before release
now refute my argument
Fucking SiIvaGunner videos were taken down during the purge pre-release user. Fred Flintstone confirmed?
Palutena is Pallas Athena, dipshit.
i want Ammy, she reps good dogs worldwide.
