Reimu is never going to happen if this DLC is being marketed to everyone all around the world, even Doomguy to an extent isn’t likely due to having zero presence in Japan.

Great, two characters whose Smash fans don't actually play the games they're from.

Who's Reimu?

>implying

>reimu
Literally who

Doomfags clearly at least played 2016, not the games that are why he matters in the first place.
Imagine playing MGSV as your only Metal Gear and being shocked you're not getting Venom Snake as the rep.

All of you are deluded

Sans (Undertale) and Cecil Harvey (Final Fantasy IV) would be perfect.

>reimu
who? here's your actual fighter's pass

>tfw MGSV was the only Metal Gear game I've played

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. Maybe Jill to prevent sausage fest.
>Steve
Not as popular as Minecraft. Boring character with a boring move set. Works better as an assist or 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

This is completely unrelated to anything at all and doesn’t help nor harm his chances, but the current English voice actor for Maya is the same woman who sings the Lifelight main theme, Abby Trott. Just thought it was interesting to note, thought it was similar to how Xander Mobus is the announcer and also Joker’s voice actor.

Where the fuck is Hero? At this pace, the last fighter pass character will be released in late April/early May 2020.

Has to be this week. Speaking of which, what does everyone want added alongside Hero in this upcoming update?

Homerun contest was already datamined, so it's going to be that.

>Disney'ed,
huh?

Wow, really?

Between Stage Builder and now Homerun Contest, I'm glad Nindy's taking the opportunity to also add back some old modes.

When was this?

I think Disney is trying to buy Activision

An investor only suggested Disney should buy Activision, Disney didn't actually do it.
Make sure to check the context before you jump on dumb conclusions.

Realistic Mutemen will never ever be in smash!

Real talk, how the fuck do you people keep talking about this game?

The pacing of the character reveals and generally any new info for this game have been fucking abysmal. (I sure did love having to wait months in order to see fucking Isabelle get unveiled, and then having to wait like another two months for the last Direct). In between it all we've been doing is just circle jerking the same 10 god damn characters over and over again. It's fucking boring.

At least Smash 4's DLC had other stuff like new/returning stages Mii outfits, and that shitty tourney mode to fill in the gaps between Ryu and Cloud. After E3 this year there's literally nothing to talk until Nintendo finally releases Hero which they're taking their sweet ass time with.

>Sakurai somehow gets 10 ska punk songs in

I-IT'S NOT RELEVANT, BUT MY CHOICE, GENO, FROM MARIO RPG, IS SUPER RELEVANT
Agumon and Digimon as a whole, are more relevant then anyone on that list.

>IT'S A DEAD SERIES
It's actually still going strong. Only reason you haven't been seeing too much of it is because either A) You see it as a competitor to Pokemon and are a nintendo purist. Or B) Translator teams are doing shit with it.

>IT'S DEAD
Actually no, it's still getting anime, manga, toys, video games, and even cards, and recently, a phone app, in Japan. Hell, they even had a recent string of movies.

>BUT GAMEFREAK SAYS
Gamefreak, for one, has zero to little say in Smash. The only reason they're in the credits still is because of Jigglypuff and Pikachu.
This is like saying the following:
>Nintendo would never let non-nintendo characters in
Joker, Bayonetta, Snake, Megaman, Ryu, Ken, Simon, Ricter, Pac-Man, Sonic, Cloud
>Nintendo would never allow Religious characters in!
Simon, Bayonetta, Ricter
>NO GUNS!
Snake, Bayonetta, Joker

Agumon actually makes sense, you're just too autistic to see it.

Third and final round of voting is complete, here are your two winners. Doom Guy dominated all throughout the polls, placing first in the nominations, the top 16, and top 8. Much like in the courtroom, Phoenix proved an underdog that went from 7th in nominations all the way to the final four... though ALSO like the scrupulous lawyer was caught cheating near the end. A noticeable spike of votes occurred earlier today for both Phoenix and Reimu.

However, the final two themselves have yet to change (albeit a slim lead by Doom Guy) and even detracting stacked votes, Phoenix still had more than enough to claim the 2nd place spot. Thank you to everyone who participated with this experiment, as well as those who offered critique: I should make a point of saying here these results were prone to stacking and so final results may obviously not be accurate, but at the end of the five days this is where the polls stand. Congrats to Wrightbros and Doomchads.

I'll do this again in another month or two with Google Docs for more accurate results, assuming we haven't learned who one or both of the final two fighters are by then.

I wouldn't be excited, per say, but Kat would be a fine fit for Smash.

Anyone else hate that they went with Joker instead of Jack Frost for SMT?
Don't get me wrong, it doesn't SURPRISE me that they went with him, but Jack woulda been such a better pick and won't feel dated withing a few years.

Your opinion holds no value.

Phoenix Wright was literally already in a fighting game faggot

Persona - has previous history with nintendo
Pac-Man - has previous history with nintendo
Street Fighter - has previous history with nintendo
Megaman - has previous history with nintendo
Sonic - has previous history with nintendo
Castlevania - has previous history with nintendo
Final Fantasy - has previous history with nintendo
Metal Gear Solid - has previous history with nintendo
Bayonetta - has previous history with nintendo
Banjo Kazooie - has previous history with nintendo
Dragon Quest - has previous history with nintendo
Halo - has literally NO previous history with nintendo aside from a fucking CANCELLED BETA DS GAME

Also to add to this, Microsoft and Nintendo decided to have Banjo be the Microsoft rep. If you honestly expect two reps from the same company on the pass, you're delusional. Chief is out, deal with it.

see CU has been talked about as early as fighter's pass initial reveal but didn't start gaining any traction until recently with the Namco costume theory. It's not a 100% lock obviously but there's no real reason to rule him out

I just want Geno and Ryu Hayabusa. Geno's chances are pretty slim, but seeing how every other never ever including Banjo got in gives me a bit of hope. Hayabusa is the only classic game character left that I can think of that has a solid chance to make it, I just don't know if they would call him Hayabusa since we already have a Ryu. I know we have two Roys as well, but one is just a skin. Man, I'd main this motherfucker in a heartbeat.

Every single 3rd party character on the fucking roster has history with Nintendo. Also that "courtesy" thing? It still applies to 3rd party characters with Nintendo history, just not as long. You dumb assholes have been misinterpreting Sakurai's quote. He means that characters that are new to Nintendo get the welcoming red carpet by being put in Smash.

>There has never been a western character so Banjo isn't in
>There has never been a mature character so Bayonetta isn't in
>There has never been a character with guns so Joker isn't in
Imagine being an unironic patternfag after all of this

Nah, you've just been making shit up. Sakurai has no issue adding characters without Nintendo History and Nintendo has no reason to give a shit so long as they stand to gain something from it. There is no Nintendo History rule, if there is then provide a quote from Sakurai because your observations mean jack shit.

Here’s some food for thought then: DLC was decided before the game came out, so why keep a spirit in the game for a character that would just be coming later down the pipeline? For example, if Geno were coming, why keep the Geno spirit in the game for launch when they could just use it for his fighter spirit?

DLC was planned, not characters were already chosen.

if Geno (by some fucking miracle) gets in, it won't be on the Fighter's Pass, but as a separate "bonus" character like Plant was

They already get enough of that so it's pointless.
Just stop it. This is fucking embarrassing. You got Banjo and Kazooie. End of story. You retards are not and WILL not get MC or another Microsoft rep. At best you're getting MC as a Mii Costume along with Steve if it's even possible.

That being said, Geno is NEVER getting in and neither is Shantae for that matter.

>Namco and Capcom Mii outfits still gone
Its probably Chosen Undead and Leon

You can't faithfully dispute Chief and it kills you

great taste

But why bother doing it at all if it would be required to change it? Why make uneccessary work for yourself by making a whole new battle and area for the spirit to be in WOL when you can just hold off on including it entirely?

because Bamco helped make the damn game and all they have is Pac-Man still as a Rep, while Capcom and Konami get three reps.

And it's KOS-MOS because she's basically Bamco's go-to for cross over characters.

Sega. And it's the one thing that most people who believe in Mii Costume Theory ignore. There are two outcomes with those, they either didn't make the cut, which is just throwing away money, or are going to be sold later. But if it's possible for that to happen, the same could happen with the Capcom or Namco costumes.

If they gave him one of those bows that shoots like 5 arrows at once Links would just spam neutral B even more than they already do.

They dont want a rep, also most of their ips are dead and I dont think Sakurai is retarded enough to chose a third RPG swordman after just adding one

doesn't KOS MOS use entirely guns in Xenosaga though

It’s possible that they’re only reselling the mii costumes that sold well last game as to not waste dev time and rights negotiations for stuff that won’t sell.

just give him like a fucking Royal Bow or something, I know it's not the best but it's solid enough

>In Smash games RPG characters usually have the best gear possible

Eh not really, that's just Fire Emblem because the character's iconic weapons are their best ones. Shulk has the earliest version of the Monado and I don't think Corrin's Yato is the fully upgraded one, and isn't Buster Sword Cloud's default weapon?

If you want an answer to this, from what I noticed from these threads from the past couple of months, most of it is basically fueled on shitposting, don't remember when Steveposting was a thing for literal MONTHS cause it was an easy (you) farm?

The other half is just due to the fact that multiple gates were opened with how characters were added into Ultimate, and considering that this is possibly the last game all pistons are running for character-fandoms since Smash Bros boosted the popularity of most series that get playable characters in the franchise.

That's actually a good point about Cloud, but I'm pretty sure Corrin does have the fully upgraded Yato, that's why it's a chainsaw.

I love Reimu!

>"B-B-But Phoenix has moveset potential because he was in MvC!"

So were the fucking Servbots, does that mean they're in as well? If anything him being in MvC3 goes against his chances since they aren't going to just rip off his fucking MvC moveset and throw it in Smash. They didn't for Megaman, they decided to stay true to the NES games and make up a new moveset. What does Phoenix do in his games? He points at things. Sometimes he yells too.

Stop posting this shit

I mean, they added Corrin right after Cloud

>Doomguy
I doubt that they would call him Doomguy since he's officially Doomslayer now.
Leak seems kind of legit, but people were "leaking" Hero and Banjo long before the post was made. Doomguy and Chosen Undead just seem like safe bets. We'll see.

Yea, that's what it is.
It's not a chainsaw in the other routes.
Trust me, I spent way too much fucking time on Fates.

Attached: marth the following.png (377x408, 202K)

technically, calling XI "Edrick" isn't wrong

No shit, dumbasses, and his move set sucked ass in there as well. They scrapped the bottom of the barrel to make him work. You think Sakurai is going to put his finger lasers in Smash? God, you guys are fucking idiots. Like I said:
>Don't pull shit out of your ass.

she would be a Xenosaga character though

didnt they add like 2 FE characters as DLC plus Cloud? maybe we might actually get 3 JRPG picks again but at least its not FE I guess, unless they say fuck you and shill that new game but that would cause a riot

Phoenix can embody the gameplay loop of AA, as in investigating for evidence then using it for a turnabout in court. As he fights opponents, he can gather stronger and stronger evidence to use against them that can be stored in a “court record” ui element by his portrait to present at the right time, just like the games. Yes, I know it’s similar to UMvC3, but Ryu and Ken are incredibly close to Street Fighter anyway already. Not to mention we’d have no need for finger lasers or bad evidence.

Just stop faggot you're gonna give crash a bad rep. I want him in but you're just gonna put him in the same level as steve.

And XI is called Hero in Smash, not Erdrick.

Yea but the other was fucking Roy.

>but Ryu and Ken are incredibly close to Street Fighter anyway already

They come from the most iconic fighting game series of all time, no shit they play like SF

Nintendo themselves decided they wanted Banjo to represent Microsoft in the pass. Not Chief. And seeing that they're choosing one development team/company at a time, I would not at all count my chickens about MC getting in. It's damn near impossible to bet on, especially seeing that Frank O'Connor outright deconfirmed him with no hesitation.

I know that, I just meant it as in they aren’t afraid to take directly from other fighting games. I know they had no choice, but the fact still remains that they willingly took moves and ideas from another fighting game.

but what do they gain from adding her? reviving or porting Xenosaga?

>Expecting Master Chief
>Expecting Porky

My fucking god you people are delusional. You're getting either Ryu Hayabusa, Doom Slayer, Crash Bandicoot, or Leon.

Attached: 1447369700751.jpg (960x720, 74K)

it still technically counts, like how Joker is supposedly a SMT rep despite coming with zero SMT content

Phoenix doesn’t need finger lasers or bad evidence or anything like that to work because Smash isn’t a conventional fighting game. He didn’t work in UMvC3 because they tried to force him into a more serious meta driven environment, but that obviously isn’t a problem here.

For me, it's Kasumi.
She has the leaks, the data mine, the interview, and the relationship with Nintendo.
I'm thinking she's in.

A deconfirmation is a deconfirmation retard, it doesn't matter how softly you word it.

You do realize her ninja garb and many others are fully clothed right?

You're getting Ryu. Fuck off waifufag.

it was Kasumi from P5R

Tecmo's relationship with nintendo. (Hyrule Warriors, FE Warriors, MUA3)
Cope.

Ninja Gaiden is one of the last few major NES/Famicom franchises
Doom pioneered the FPS genre
Crash was one of the few "cereal mascots" that actually gave Nintendo and Mario a run for their money
Resident Evil pioneered the survival horror genre and is the biggest nip franchise not in Smash currently

Boring character, literally a generic anime girl with no moveset

Ryu. Hayabusa.

If Bayonetta and Persona can get in before any of these, legacy status and relevancy don’t matter

When will you rosterfags learn that people can lie on an NDA
How the fuck is this not common sense?

So basically
x represent y genre
x is popular
and whatever that reason is for Crash

Reminds me of the guy who kept trying to push cucking Sony as a legitimate reason for Crash, as if they ever cared for him at all

>someone with no say on anything says he’d put in a a character from the game he oversees

I don't know how Reimu became the new meme pick, but despite that and my belief that her chances are pretty dang low, it would be pretty fuckin' neato if she got in.

RipandTearMan would be pretty cool, too. He's got a huge pedigree, but seeing him in Smash just seems off.

At this point though, it feels like practically anyone's possible and I'm honestly happy with pretty much anyone. Sakurai will make it work.

>"Yeah, this is the 25th anniversary of Doom. I mean, it was not the first first-person shooter, that goes to Wolfenstein which is also an ID [Software] game,"

The developers of that shit tried to get them but backed out when they rose the price for both Crash and Spyro

>Cucks Sony
funny, because it wouldn't be the first time CHAD bandicoot did that kek

Because Sakurai is retarded

It was 6th months between Joker's announcement and E3. And yet you expect them to just announce the second to last DLC character at some con that isn't even going to be viewed by a majority of people?

>>Boomer theory
?

I'll refute MH.

Rathalos was a strong attempt at compromising representation, I'll give them that, but because of the nature of it not being an actual character, there's barely any love shown. Rathalos is put on a special pedestal, but that's it. Monster Hunter deserves stronger representation. I'm honestly betting the next Smash will at least fix this, but I would not mind a DLC slot being used up for either a hunter or felyne or blow everyone's fucking mind and use something like Kirin..

I still believe Sora will be the last character revealed, mostly because he would cause the biggest hype out of all the dlc reveals.

Being the most requested character for dlc, it would make the most sense business wise.

twitter.com/niconico_test_1/status/1073789370606354432

While he didn't mention the details of the character until months later in June, the fact stands that he claims that his source stated that a female character will be DLC.
He didn't know the name but he knew the gender, that points to him seeing a model all the way back in December and we were only given updates about in June.
Now before you make your argument saying the actual details didn't come until June let me say this.
Correct me if I'm wrong but given the amount of time between December and June, shouldn't the female model have enough detail to be properly recognized by him if lets say he revisited Nintendo and saw the female model again.
We know Hero and Banjo are the second and third fighters but do you really think they'd begin work on the fourth fighter long before the other two are even near being finished while being under a deadline and seven days after Sakurai's post saying they were only working on two more fighters and "something else" (likely Stage Builder) at the time?
We can interpret this in the following
>The Japanese twitter user's source mistook the model for something else
>He's flat out lying and got lucky
>Smash's development cycle is a bigger mess than we thought

DQ11 isn't useful for your argument
We knew a port was coming all the way back when the Switch was still called the NX

unintelligent and a confirmed zoomer everyone, leave.

>You’re delusional and nobody gives a fuck about the Mother franchise
I think anyone who thinks Mother is going to get literally anything for its anniversary or any DLC at all is delusional beyond belief but you can't genuinely think this when Undertale has skyrocketed Earthbound's popularity within the past few years to the highest its been in decades

Stop it KH fags can't understand logic that's why they play KH

It's going to be fucking Lara Croft people are in hardcore denial over it.

>Muh faceless army man

>Kasumifags
I'm convinced it's one guy

Don't waste your time, anons. For some reason, Capsule-kun will never stop being butthurt. Reasoning with him is an impossibility, as he is blinded by rage as soon as he sees people like a game he's never played.

>We knew a port was coming all the way back when the Switch was still called the NX
People knew of this already, but the release date was not announced until the next month following the post which coincidentally ties in with Hero being in Ultimate.

Phoenix Wright is the first character on that list that could conceivably get in
>Sora is square enix, already got a square enix character
>Banjo's in obviously
>Hat Goomba can't get in, only 3rd party characters, also Sakurai has at least a little bit of good taste
>Steve can't get in, there's already a microsoft character
>Shantae can't get in, spirits deconfirm
>Geno can't get in, spirits deconfirm
>Phoenix Wright is not a character I really want but he could get in
>Rex is already deconfirmed officially
>Rayman could get in
>Crash could get in
>Master Chief can't get in, he's microsoft
>Doomguy could get in
>Dante could get in
>Porky can't get in, only 3rd parties
>Tails can't get in, Sega already has a character
>2B can't get in, there's already a square enix character
>The Knight could get in
>Monster Hunter could technically get in, but the MH devs have always been pretty adamant that the best representatives for their series are the monsters, not the monster hunters.
And before you say it, I am not a rulefag. I am simply not delusional. If I was a rulefag I would say something retarded like "durrr... phoenix wright can't get in because he uh.... has no moveset... rayman irrelvlvent...d-d-d-urrr.... crash bandictoot cereal box...sora weeb...."

you're not a rulefag, you're a patternfag
that's even worse

>>Rayman could get in
spirits deconfirm

>I am simply not delusional
Yet you think Phoenix Wright is possible.

Forgot about that, probably blocked it out of my mind because that spirit fight is so cancerous

>Later, on June 15th, 2019, he made another tweet claiming his sources came from his friend named Mr. H who visited Nintendo and saw the female character in development, claiming that she looks like she comes from a game of the fighting genre.[30]

The situation with Sora is weird. He's not owned by Square, but he's co-owned by Nomura and Disney. So technically he would be a Disney rep.

And before people say "DISNEY BAD" Disney has already said they would be fine with it, and it would ultimately be Nomura's decision because HE has full creative control of original Kingdom Hearts characters.

It doesn't add up to what we already know
Why begin her so early when they still had to do Joker and were already prioritizing getting Hero and Banjo done?

but letting disney in is a whole plethora of madness that would ensue with character requests

the truth hurts, user. you are brave for speaking it

100% in the first stage of grief.
Kasumi is coming.
Keep copin.

what's her gimmick?

Am I the only one who HATES that Disney owns Sora? They really don't deserve him and the Kingdom Hearts series that Square Enix makes for them. I feel like SE should make a bid to own all original characters. That way whenever Disney decides to SJW Up? SE just walks away with the original characters. I just hate Disney. Funny, I enjoy Kingdom Hearts, but it's NOT because of Disney.

Youve never developed anything for a game.
Early preliminary stuff is done super early probably all at once.
The mor detaild youget the more devoted you get in thatarea of development.

Also given the passage of time/gap between the first claim of a female DLC fighter and the details regarding them in June plus how according to the leaker's source that the model looked very unfinished
How do we know if the assertion still holds true?
Memory can get foggy and details can change over time
He didn't even mention it having a ponytail, that was specifically for a Joker alt costume that didn't make it in going by datamine

Wasn't Bayonetta in development months before Corrin?

Many beautiful alts.
Varying degrees of waifu.
Has jiggle psychics.

But kasumi is irrelevant everywhere. This was said about dragon quest but DQ was always an inevitability. Dead or alive is literally vaporware tier fighting game why would tecmo include the main character of a niche titty fighter when a character like Ryu hayabusa means something to Nintendo AND is in said niche titty fighting game.

>Many beautiful alts.
CERO
>Varying degrees of waifu.
Smash has been adding more and more females
This isn't Brawl
>jiggle physics
CERO

Not necessarily. If Sakurai were to put in something related to something outside videogames, it would 100% be Disney because the characters are instantly recognizable to anyone in the planet.

Which would tie in to Sora being the last character revealed, because he is a character that originates from a videogame, and still has the Disney spirit. Allowing Sakurai to bend the rules.

Dead or Alive is so relevant and notable, its not even in EVO

DOA has an advanced counter system and danger zones.
So I guess her gimmick would be like her series fast striking juggling, counter system, and a dangerzone mechanic. (Different areas on the sage become hazards)

They literally made the character the mii was based on a full AT, they got the rights since base game

Banjo kazooie was a very popular game that rivaled Mario 64 as a platformer. DOA was a literal fanservice game turned competitive fighter that no one cares about.

Shes in regardless if we fag for her or not.

If that were the case why not add the literal ninja hayabusa. It makes no sense why tecmo would want kasumi in smash.

Hayabusa is also a terrible ninja, even worse than Kasumi seeing how he always lets himself be seen and makes so much commotion.

played the first 3 NG games, and razors edge, own Doa5 last round. they're terrible ninjas, Greninja is actually a better ninja than sheik, and every ninja Tecmo owns.

If Rare Replay is coming to the Switch like rumors suggest, Banjo's a shill pick
Also, why DoA over Tekken?
Why it over Soul Calibur?

I don't think she'd bring weapons from Razors Edge if she'd be treated as a DoA character and not a NG character

no and no ninja should unless they have to, and even then drawing blood is a big nono as that can alert people that someone has been killed or wounded.

Let me tackle KOS-MOS.

So, I'm sure you're unaware, but in the field of JRPGs Takahashi is legendary because of his work on Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, but especially Xenogears. The story of Xenogears' development inspired a lot of companies' directors who were working on large scale JRPGs. It was a rare collection of talent, and the game came out to critical praise in Japan.

This is despite the development being infamously troubled by Takahashi's scope of vision, ever expanding the game and working long hours to struggle to get all of the ideas he wanted featured into the title. It was one of the first interdisciplinary games in that it worked in anime production, 3DCG, game development, dot art, and involved many industry experts.

Why does that matter? He was looked up to for it in the industry. So when Square gave his team the boot, Namco wasted NO time in picking him up. They initially treated him well, saw decent sales, and then famously overtook him. As far as auteurs go for JRPGs, he even outshines Nomura in his love of control and grand vision. So, when Xenosaga was taken away from that vision, the only icon of his initial vision that remained was KOS-MOS.

1/2

KOS-MOS was originally written to be a character important to Xenogears' backstory, and Xenosaga was to tell the backstory in a tongue-in-cheek spiritual predecessor sort of way. He wouldn't get the chance to revisit this idea until Monolith was finally picked up by Nintendo.

At Nintendo, Monolith has delivered quality title after quality title with everything they touch selling beyond projections and receiving lavish critical praise. In Takahashi's latest work, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, who should appear alongside his revived Xenogears ideas but KOS-MOS? Though a minor character, she was treated with appropriate passion and love.

She is the icon of Takahashi's struggles as a video game auteur. An assistant programmer turned company president and director of hit after cult classic hit, he is revered in the industry. His continued permission to use the KOS-MOS character and his continued contact over the Xenosaga series is a testament to the impact he's left at Nintendo, Namco, and in the Japanese industry as a whole.

Additionally, she is a Bandai Namco character who has appeared in various titles since the Xenosaga series, there are rumblings of a Xenosaga HD collection, and the Xenoblade series has not yet concluded - and with Takahashi on record saying he intends to continue referencing his past works, KOS-MOS as a character has a future in the Xenoblade series.

Her moveset potential is also massive, boasting abilities no other character has access to - including a body that is made of weapons, powerful magic, and a giant robot. There have even been hints of more Xenoblade representation from Sakurai - outright apologizing that Rex couldn't make it in. As a huge fan of the Xeno-series, Sakurai would surely ask Takahashi who he would include... and the answer is obvious. Of that list, she has the strongest potential.

Add him and you give the Gokutards an argument
And Smashfags are retarded
They'd start asking for Harry Potter, Aslan, Sauron, etc because Yea Forums characters would be fair game

Your twitter also shows you're half Korean and Smash is made for humans

Again, why would they pick kasumi over hayabusa?

literally what

You know if she was a DoA rep like you keep preaching she wouldn't have that moveset right?
Besides, Hayabusa would be the better Ninja Gaiden rep

nah need more sexy bitches in smash

I'm sorry - My twitter? Is somebody else gunning for her as hard as me? I jumped into this thread late.

No matter what they do, the Smash community will remain shit.

It's gonna be Geralt and Sakurai is going to pull an explanation out of his ass for it.

>people are still responding to a shitty pasta

Nobody at Nintendo has ever said that the pass would be third parties only.

w-was i pranked
i'm sorry i just really like the xeno series :(

>Implying we won't get spontaneous Mii costume releases that weren't tied to a character reveal like during the Ballot
Going with costume theory makes no sense for Kasumi since by that logic they'd still have to release costumes for Capcom and Bamco for the last two

because they're saving it for Hayabusa

Because those costumes arn't coming back

Leaks: Female from a fighting game with a thrown weapon. (Kasumi's Windmill shuriken)
Datamine: "pony hair" Kasumi has a ponytail. "Jane" attached to joker, both Joker and Kasumi use a short metal Blade and are nimble. Clearly borrowing assets like the rest of the dlc.

pretty much
they probably sold like shit

Probably the only Banjo tier surprise character at this point, everyone else is just either predictable or far off in another realm of unlikely
I just hope we don't end DLC on a sour note

If we get all the square costumes with hero.(possibly Namco/ Capcom ones if there isn't a DLC character)
Banjo could add Namco or Capcom Miis back too.
But if neither of those add back Virtua fighter or Capcom costumes... Your dlc is Leon and Kasumi.
It's a process of elimination which looks better and better as we get costumes.

Ponytail is because Joker was built around Robin (short sword, elfire), and there are traces of FemRobin left in the code.

Why does DOA6 have SNK guest characters?

Because they're both irrelevant.

Because snk puts their characters in everything. Fucking iori is a guest character in some mobileshit indie game.

I always liked how they used the sneeze as a launcher/spike

I've always thought Doomguy would be the best rep if there was a "FPS" rep

Damn I hope this is the case.

I don't think every vidya character is viable, Sakurai bullshits people with that
Like I can't imagine him choosing picks like Kasumi, Asuka, Neptune, Saber, Reimu, Miku etc cause they are so ingrained in weeb/otuku culture and have been for years that it would feel like a almost literal anime Goku tier inclusion

What? Why the fuck would people support Doomguy and Reimu if they didn't play their games are you retarded?

you shouldn't even on this board if you've never played doom

Reimu would make an extremely loud minority seethe but that's about it desu

The rest would be too busy going "literally who" to notice

Considering how popular Touhou is on the western Internet putting Reimu in would actually be a pretty good move even putting asides her popularity in Japan
And Doomguy have a niche appeal in Japan too just like Banjo, so he would still make sense but I don't think we're getting another western character in the pass.

As always the majority wouldn't give a shit and would just be glad we got a new character with a unique moveset
A decent amount of people would be glad because we got Touhou content in Smash
5 retards would be spamming threads to try and shill the narrative that everyone is pissed
No really tho if Reimu gets in get ready for a bunch of anti-Reimu threads with 30 posters at bump limit lmao. It'll last like 2 days before they realize it's pointless and stop
