Why are you faggots still discussing this shit when the Sideshow Bob leaker has been getting every character reveal and is predicting real life events to an uncanny level INCLUDING PP and Joker

Tabbender is beyond delusional
He genuinely believes Leonposters are all in on his discord war and that everyone is targetting him, falseflagging him, etc

Reimu and Doomguy would be nice, but Frogger is in

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
>Any RE rep
Has a chance but unlikely since boring move set potential. No, they wouldn't have Jill spawn zombies, you fucking retard
>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
>Shantae
Shoot yourself in the skull

I also wouldn't want Crash if they're forced to use that butchered design and dance from the remake.

No because undertalefags shill for sans/frisk/kris/undyne because they like the game/music. Shantaefags are just waifu shitters who fell for wayforward's marketing campaign.

Shit bait OP

Probably not at evo itself, but the direct that reveals him will very likely be announced there.

I mean the whole point about making up evidence, thinking everything is a teaser and vastly overestimating their series' chances of making it in.
Also don't pretend some of them aren't shilling it for the memes. Sansfags especially.

>Two west-focused events
>When the 3 characters we got so far were already revealed at west-focused events
Never ever

detail? Story and characters? Is it at least faithfful to the games. I'd imagine it's based on 6 & 7.

>making up evidence, thinking everything is a teaser
Idk seems like everyone does that to me, I remember a blurry out of focus book with a vague brown and yellow shape behind sakurai in a direct being the topic of multiple threads with people speculating it was a banjo and kazooie hint.
?Also don't pretend some of them aren't shilling it for the memes. Sansfags especially.
this is true, admittedly

As far as corporate strategy goes Reimu is a top contender.
>franchise with a large fanbase
>fanbase has had little reason to buy a switch or smash yet
>franchise appeal is based entirely around its characters

They all do this but Shantaefags were doing this all the time, they were the worst when it comes to this (and still now with the window bullshit). Undertalefags are probably those that come the closest, they literally digged out one of Toon Link's move descriptions (that was already there in Smash 4) saying it was a hint towards Sans.
Just look at PapaGenos' discord server, they're fucking delusional when it comes to Undertale (and indies in general).

I really want Reimu but it feels impossible. I hope Doombros make it at least. I think Leon/Doomguy or Crash/Doomguy, and I'm OK with both of those options.

This + the series are old and have been consistently popular enough to be deserving, not to mention it's getting a new game this year. It would also bring a lot of content to the game if only via Reimu's moveset, so it wouldn't even be seen as "being a sellout" or whatever by the community.
What's holding off Reimu however is the fact that she's an indie character, meaning they'll have to contact ZUN specifically to get her in, as opposed to contacting a big company. It doesn't help that ZUN is definitely not going to make the first move.
I'd say Reimu getting in or not depends solely on them wanting an indie character or not.

>franchise appeal is based entirely around its characters
Don't forget the music. Which would still get in alongside Reimu if the series were represented so that doesn't change much to your argument, but still.

Watch it, you're edging into stevefag territory there

Do you have some sort of argument you want to make?

I don't expect Reimu to get in. I just think it'd be really cool if it happened.

At this point another western rep like Doomguy or Crash seems even more impossible than Reimu desu. Sakurai on twitter heavily implied Banjo was the only western character in the pass.
twitter.com/Sora_Sakurai/status/1138664983565225984

He only said it's the first time he asked a foreign musician. Since characters 4 and 5 come after Banjo in the pass, they could easily still be western.

Except he definitely contacted all the musicians beforehand, and it's likely work on the final 2 hard already started in June.
It's possible we're getting another western character but frankly unlikely, don't get your hopes up for one.

No, we have absolutely no idea who the final 2 are. Every "leak" we have are literal shitposts like that twitterfag.

It's weird how they'd know Banjo and Hero, but not the other 2. I assume it's a translator that leaks then.

Maybe because banjo/hero were developed alongside joker while they're only just starting on 4 and 5?

Don't forget that Banjo was only actually leaked a week prior to his reveal.

Given the outpour of support for the Belmonts and having the three gods of mascot platformers present as well as SEGA onboard to iron out any potential issues, Sparkster would be their perfect retro character. I'm still hoping they go with Soma though; dude's got literally limitless moveset potential between the Soul System and all of Aria and Dawn's wacky weapons.

I think you’re misunderstanding that tweet. Kirkhope was unusual because almost all Smash remixes are done in house by Nintendo. Even if another Western character made it in, chances are they’d still be remixed by Nintendo unless they also had an auteur composer like Banjo did.

Banjo had been "deconfirmed" by Kirkhope too. People under NDA can lie.

It's not arbitrary when it's literally based on the fact that he's western and Sakurai implied Banjo was the only western character he was working on.
Also no one's talking about deconfirmations. It's about characters that are unlikely to happen, not impossible.

>It's not arbitrary
>deconfirminf him over a fan interpretation of what is believed to be an implication to some that is more than likely not even there (sakurai doesn’t care fir console wars after all).
You’re not making yourself look any better.

>Also no one's talking about deconfirmations. It's about characters that are unlikely to happen, not impossible.
So by that you’re saying that Travis is LIKELY to happen? That’s even WORSE than thinking he’s possible at all. You literally can’t defend this while also saying soomguy is unlikely because [made up rule]

I unironically wanted Laboman back when Ultimate was about to come out. He could have been a heavy hitter like Ike whose mechanic would be losing the joycon, going for a heavy hitter to a shapeshifting floaty character.

In the same boat my dude.

Here's my new theory:
Characters I want = Unlikely
Characters I don't care about = Likely
That way I won't set myself up for disappointment.

Reminder, if the roster's all third-party it's already shit.

Ryu is the mascot of the fightijg game genre, who has nothing else to pull from other than his fighting game moveset. Characters who don’t originate from fighting games are obviously what he’s talking about here.

i just can't see chosen undead getting in now that Hero's in. Another sword character that will most likely use fire moves as one of his specials?
I wish he was in though, DS music in Smash would be bliss

>fanbase has had little reason to buy a switch or smash yet
This is the dumbest fucking idea I have read in a long time because it implies you are only allowed to like one single series and if you like said seires, you don't give a shit about any other games.

Then again, I'm always hearing about how supposedly rabid the Touhou fanbase is so maybe they are just that obsessive that Touhou is the only thing they like.

Still, I continue to see this logic applied to Smash but it makes no goddamn sense. This idea that "they'll get so many more people interested if they put this one character in" is dumb as fuck because normal people don't ONLY like one series and odds are, Smash already has characters from other franchises they like. Adding a character from a new franchise might gain the interest of a few new folks but the reality is that there's a lot of crossover already and the fighter pass isn't there to get new people interested and instead exists to represent series that existing Smash fans have been wanting to see. Banjo and Hero are obvious evidence of this and even Joker has come up in quite a few conversations of "I know Persona isn't on Nintendo platforms but one of the MCs would make a cool Smash character". But I know that most people are gonna ignore the logic here and continue to misinterpret Reggie and Sakurai's quotes about the fighter pass because most of Yea Forums is retarded so I don't know why I'm bothering to say any of this.

Based as Hell.

user, that's not just a reason that user gave for the sake of it, sakurai himself has specifically said he wanted to bring in more characters that'll attract audiences the series hasn't targetted yet. no need to lose your shit

What is remiu the mother of?

Idk, I still think he’s in, but the flowers were probably just made for the spirit board ad. I don’t see Porky’s stage being a field of golden flowers. I would want either the Empire Porky Building or one of the two end locations from Mother 2 and 3 to be his stage.

The shoot-em-up genre, i.e. shmups. Considering every smash game so far has had a shoot-em-up section (usually the credits) I think it'd be pretty surprising for Sakurai to not know the series yet alone not be a fan of it to some degree

you could have CU be entirely physical though

He doesn’t HAVE to use fire moves. See:

shit i take it back. Knowing Sakurai too he could definitely make him work and feel unique still.

Nigga she is not the mother of shmups

She's at the very least the most recognizable face of the genre since the series started back on the PC-98 and has since only continued to grow with a massive following behind it. It's not an exaggeration at all either to say her series not only popularized the genre but still sits comfortably as the face of the indie scene in japan

>sakurai himself has specifically said he wanted to bring in more characters that'll attract audiences the series hasn't targetted yet
Got the exact quote for that? People keep parroting this but I have yet to see such a quote.

>I mean the whole point about making up evidence
But he literally posted real evidence

Ideally, nobody should "ally" with anybody because that's retarded and you're a fag for doing any LARPing as it pertains to Smash of all things. Besides, those tranny allies you made over Discord will just leak your retardation and use you for shitpost material if you get btfo.

If he meant that, Joker and Hero wouldn't be in the game, seeing as though we already have a JRPG character in Cloud.

god dammit where's otisfag when you need him
let me find it

>>fanbase has had little reason to buy a switch or smash yet
I mean, there's the Touhou games already on the console

Joker was to more than likely get at the Persona/Megaten crowd in general I'd imagine since their userbase is huge (though I just think Joker was more of a personal pick from Sakurai)
Hero makes perfect sense despite Cloud being in too because DQ is literally the biggest franchise in japan aside from maybe Pokemon

Indies. See, independent gaming wasn't pioneered by it in Japan but its explosion in popularity resulted in a lot of people getting into indie gaming there. This Japanese circulation would later influence the indie scene in the west. As far as indies go Touhou is one of the greatest and oldest, surviving the test of time and inspiring many devs to make their own games by themselves. It even inspired Undertale.

this. They're releasing the newest official 2hu fighter on the switch this year too

Bullet hell isn't even exclusive to 2hu and it is just a variation of shmups. If we are gonna talk about the grandaddy of shmups something like Gradius or Space Invaders would make more sense. To be fair, if we go with the mindset that Sakurai would prefer a humanoid shmup rep, it would narrow things down enough for Reimu to be considered, but she is still far from being the mother of shmups.

Indeed. There’s a lot to work with in the souls games.

It may be a variation but it's arguably one of the most impactful franchises in Japan as well, like this user pointed out I'd argue she can still be seen as one of the most prevalent faces of the genre since the Touhou series is till popular today to the point where both older players and kids can recognize Reimu easily in japan

Not him but I checked the archives and it came from Nintendo's shareholder meeting. Can't find any links though.

The problem I've always had with Reimu is that Touhou is basically unknown to your average normie outside of Japan. And it's not like Persona where they've been trying to branch the series outside of Japan, they've always been comfortable letting it stay largely as is. Heck, Touhou didn't even have a Nintendo release until Switch, and the game currently ON the Switch are fangames.
I actually like Touhou, but basically it's a pipe dream. Even Undertale is more likely and that's also probably not gonna happen

at least the music choices are top notch.

You’ll make the reimufags seethe beyond belief with this post.

go to bed Vinny.

The problem is that she is not a big deal to shmups from an historical point of view. Popular? Sure, but there are a lot of big names that can represent the genre. The biggest contribution Touhou did to shmups in general was the popularization of the term "spellcard" to describe patterns of bullets but that's about it.

It can go both ways. You could argue that something like Undertale would be a safer pick since its popularity worldwide is more balanced out and it has a novelty factor on its side. On the other hand, they could just go with a Jap bias and add a character that is bigger there (2hu has geographical advantage), on top of being just as easy to negotiate with and already being huge with the (profitable) otaku crowd there.

>On the other hand, they could just go with a Jap bias and add a character that is bigger there
I just don't understand why Nintendo would go for Reimu when most of the Touhou franchise isn't even on Nintendo systems. With someone like Atlus, they've been making Nintendo games for decades. Even Microsoft has xbox live on Switch.

To be fair the switch has had 2hu fangames on it for ages now and is just starting to get the official stuff. Reminder that FF7 had never been on a nintendo console until Cloud got into Smash 4 either

Yes but Squaresoft had been making Nintendo games for literal decades

That's changing soon though

But it's only true well after they were deciding on the Smash DLC

It makes sense to pander to a crowd that isn't already consuming Nintendo games.

Think about it like this, say they add a character who is already on Nintendo systems (read: popular with the Nintendo/smash crowd), they most likely already own a switch or some other Nintendo console, and the best deal you can get from it is a copy of Smash (if they don't already own one) plus DLC.

Now say they add a character who never had strong relations with Nintendo, you give an incentive to people who are both outside of the Nintendo AND smash circles. In this case we have them buying a switch, a copy of smash plus the DLC to play as the character, and if you add some ports in between you can increase the chances of them sticking to the switch, which them derails into them buying more switch games to justify the purchase. This is, of course, assuming that they can afford the console in the first place.

So in the end it is way more profitable to pander to a new crowd. As long as the IP is already popular enough to bring in a new crowd, you end up making way more money while increase the already growing number of Nintendo consuming players.

The FF7 port came a year or two after Cloud was decided for smash so it wouldn't be too far-fetched

>Yeah but not mainline. Which is kinda my point, really.
It's good to remember that fangames play a different role in the 2hu fanbase. High quality shit like Luna Nights and Azure Reflections can flow just as naturally as the official content, because the amount of fan content is one of the most remarkable aspects about the franchise.

I know you are, but what am I?

Who's to say they didn't plan a second pass during the same as the first?

Link to Nintendo is a 2015 meme
Touhou is more than deserving enough, the only reason why it's unlikely is because them picking an indie character is unlikely

Still mad about that failed hijack attempt huh

they just keep trying, it's great

>le every person who dislikes reimu is the same person

why is this always their cop-out response?
