Nakoruru

How do you feel about Sakurai's choice for the SNK character?
Personally I would've preferred Mai, but I guess the rating issues prevent that.

It'll be Athena. You fucking zoomers don't know shit.

SNK twitter quoted the Harada leak meme, it's pretty much confirmed to be real

I really hope it is. I'd love to see either a KoF rep or something completely unexpected.

It's going to be Terry. That guy from Gamexplain who has insider info already mentioned that if he had to "guess" it would be Terry. Plus Gamexplain's twitter account also posted a picture of Terry's cap.

There's like one actual confirmed rule to this whole thing it's that the character can't be from a game after Xenoblade 2, if it's an SNK character I doubt it's Nakoruru since the only people who really knew a new samsho game was in the works at the time was SNK themselves

Kimono is pretty vague term, all things considered.
That newest Nakoruru design has a pretty boring look for a kimono.
It ain't a miko kimono like Reimu and it doesn't have the martial arts ensemble with hakama like Sakura.

What? You think SNK fans don't like Metal Slug? Everyone in the FGC knows about SNK IPs anyway, they are arcade classics.

Smashfags sure are retarded, you really don't understand where community lines are cause you only found out about these characters 24 hours ago.

I love how everyone was so sure about Tracer and shit cause of a random post and case leak. But an actual leak from the Nintendo site is wrong cause people didn't realise the DLC file size is the same. Everyone is so desperate to disprove it cause it is some big meme character.

>Will this be the biggest BTFO of Smash yet?
Did you forget about the grinch already zoom zoom?

>one last dab before dying

Leaker is probably just retarded and doesn't know what a kimono actually is.

>Will this be the biggest BTFO of Smash yet?
I hope. This would just be a fucking boring pick from a fucking boring company

replace marco for Terry.

if theres gonna be a Team SNK instead of a single fighter, it has to have the main 3 mascots.

This right here. It's as hard a confirmation as you can get without hearing it from Nintendo themselves. All the Smash leaks they support "mysteriously" end up correct.

That'd be a shame.

so is the "leak" just a copy/paste error from nintendo's webmaster?

Attached: goofy.jpg (600x578, 49K)

who knows, but the fact that it WAS on the nintendo website and the fact it was deleted as soon as the internet noticed it and started to talk can just mean 2 things: its real, or its NOT real.

The kimono leak came from a guy who doesn't even exist
No seriously, it originates from a post on 5ch claiming it was from an overseas leaker who if you search they're name, find nothing indicating he ever existed

Is there more supporting that than the 4.19mb size? Cause that just seems to be the minimum DLC size, basically an in game activator for the already downloaded DLC.

I'll take that as a no then. Not being immediately doesn't even make sense as a point, they wouldn't want a mistake up whether it is true or false.

I'm all for it as long as it doesn't disqualify Reimu. There are plenty of other similar characters, like Kirby and Jigglypuff.

stfu retard, you never cared about reimu in the first place

Not him, but Reimu still is my dream pick.
I'm not unreasonable to think she'll make it into Smash.
Now take the miko pill, user.

well, Nako is a Miko too, just of a different religion. Reimu is Shintoist, or so one would assume, Nako is an Ainu.

You can fuck off too, fag. You never cared about any of those characters, you're just a retarded miko fetishist.

Makes sense to me:
>4th character make it as japanese as possible
>5th character make it as western as possible
Like hero and Banjo, the 5th would probs be Doomguy.

Hopefully nakuroro AND her schizo alt Rera both make it into smash as a newcomer and echo fighter to trigger smash rosterfags even more

Man I'd love either Terry or the Metal Slug gang, but that is such a stupid argument, thats basically saying half of the inclusions in smash would be boring purely because they either A. Have a sword or B. Don't have a sword, Imagine saying Cloud would be a boring inclusion because hes from a standard RPG when we have Fire Emblem characters that already are from RPG's and have swords

Probably because it's not a kimono and Nakoruru isn't Japanese

well, to be fair, both cloud and a majority of the FE characters are pretty damn boring. The only thing saving cloud is his long ass sword and maybe limit break.

Personally I would've preferred seeing Terry but this is neat anyways.

Thanks for reminding me that I'm old, you probably don't know anything about Metal Slug either.

So whats with all the recent Metal Slug stuff with Smash?

We went from Tracer to Ryu Hayabusa to SNK Character.
Imagine if the 4th DLC is none of them, imagine the BTFO Grinch 1.1.0

Reimu in smash

Joker and Banjo are in the game though

I'd have wanted that too but I guess it wasn't meant to be.

Imagine not wanting more fightan in your wannabe party game? There are only two characters that play like that and they are essentially the same character. This argument is so braindead and exposes smashlets as a disgrace to the fgc

Nevermind that Terry and Mai are also complete literal whos that nobody but third worlders know

Can't speak for anyone else but when it was first reported that SNK was getting a rep SamSho, King of Fighters and Metal Slug pretty much top the list of their most well known properties, MS being known for amazing pixel art/animation and being a tough as nails shooter. some people might say that the majority of their moves require guns but they do have melee attacks and a couple of the extra crossover characters like Clark and Ralph have additional moves that could enhance their moveset.

Probably won't happen but it'd be cool

Didn't the Gamexplain guys unironically believed in the 5chan "leak" earlier this year?

>it wasn't fully debunked until Banjo was announced
That "Leak" was debunked after Joker's info video from April where an earlier 5chan "Leak" (Which claimed to be made by the same guy who made the Erdrick leak and the leak with Steve in it) said that Joker's moveset will have Jack Frost in it but when that info video for Joker came, there was no Jack Frost in sight.
>that one leak was the main reason Steveposting became a thing
Steveposting was a thing because of VergeBen's "Minecraft contect" comment, user but the 5chan "Leak" helped Steveposting to last much longer.
Still better than having more FE lord sword characters.
Any examples of Gamexplain inconsistent comments on rumors and leaks? Don't know much about the people who run Gamexplain other than one of the guys saying about the grinchfags being like trump supporters.

Metal Slug is the only SNK property I ever heard of before last year's smash speculation, where I only heard of Terry and still have no fucking idea who he is or what he's from.

>Imagine if the 4th DLC is none of them, imagine the BTFO Grinch 1.1.0

Not quite - Nintendo putting copyright SNK on the Smash DLC pack 4 is exponentially more likely to be real than some random banner art posted by some guy.

And I HOPE it was a mistake, because I don't particularly want any of the SNK characters in Smash, at least not over the myriad other 3rd party characters who are more popular, have had a bigger impact on gaming and who have more interesting moveset potential.

...Really? I mean, of all the legendary 3rd party picks from across different companies, genres, etc., they go with King of Fighters/Fatal Fury and Ninja Gaiden? Why?

He's from Fatal Fury asshole

If this is true it'll fucking ruin the fighters pass. It was 10/10 until this, and now it's like 4/10.

Well Terry's not exactly a character people were betting on. That guy choosing to pair him with Hayabusa then both of them getting huge material to boost their credibility in the same week would be a big coincidence. What makes me doubt it is this "continuation" shit he said about the trailers. Hero and Joker didn't play by those rules so I see no reason why the last two characters would adhere to it.

Snk is literally one of the founders of the fightan genre and one of the most influential. Smash wouldn’t exist without it. Holy heck are smashfags delusional

King of Fighters and Ninja Gaiden were incredibly important series's for their time

I don't mean you specifically, and I actually like Mai, but most Mai "fans" are just hentai addled assholes

Not yet. It could just as easily still be Nakoruru.

Right now Nakoruru is the front runner, unless Sakurai reveals otherwise

>Smash wouldn’t exist without it
unironically true. sakurai came up with the idea of a simple fighting game after beating someone's ass in the arcade playing king of fighters. nevertheless terry is a boring ass pick.

Nakoruru would be based as fuck even if she is a literal who.

Marco for Smash

It's kind of disingenuous to just say "Smash wouldn't exist without it" and leave it at that. Smash exists because Sakurai was inspired to do the exact opposite of SNK.

Making the Marco sprite that pale makes me oddly uncomfortable.

Yeah no the DLC 4 pack said SNK. Can't both. One or the other.

She was always a favorite of mine, so I'm cool with it.

Buddy, there's a fifth DLC character.

>Nako provides way more interesting play and mai doesn't have walls in this to pull off her bullshit.
>mai doesn't have walls in this to pull off her bullshit.

the walls of mai's vagina? =)

DLC 4 pack said SNK. Not DLC pack 5. Shut the fuck up.

I'm not saying DLC 4 doesn't say SNK. I'm saying he could still be right about Hayabusa still being in the game even with DLC 4 being an SNK character. You are interpreting that statement as "Hayabusa could still be DLC 4"

Chances are SNK isn't even part of the DLC at all.

Actually chances are it is, doofus.

>SNK and Koei Tecmo, literally some of the largest Japanese gaming companies not already in Smash, don't deserve to be in Smash
Sakurai beating the shit out of some loser in KoF is literally what gave him the inspiration to make Smash and Ninja Gaiden is one of the most iconic trilogies on the NES + has one of the greatest modern action games of all time + belongs to a company that has literally done nothing but suck Nintendo's dick for the past half decade

who's hoping for a season 2?

this is why I think Bayo is boring and Dante would be a bad choice for smash. In their games there's so much you can do, smash makes bayo feel so gimped.

Although he is wrong about Terry since he does play differently from Ryu.

Why wouldn't it be Haohmaru? He's literally on the cover of the new one. Even if Nakoruru is one of the main-stays, you're not gonna try and tell me Chun-Li's getting in over Ryu. Leak or not, I don't get why she'd be in over him.

>Smash retards actually having anything beyond surface level knowledge or appreciation of non-Smash games
Yeah no. That said Rera is fringe even for SamSho but she is sick and I hope to see her again. And as a color palette for Nako in Smash if she ends up joining.

I hope she remains excluded from SamSho 7

Good. i hope it spurs new doujins for her. She was always my OG waifu way back when I played Samsho in the arcades.

Because he is going to be in Soulcalibur instead. I'd rather have Nako in SC and Haohmaru in Smash because I care more about her and Soulcalibur but w/e.

It was his plan all the time; Who did you think sent the invitations inside the videogame multiverse?

He should be a boss

But, that doesn't make sense? Why can't he be in both games? Or just Smash?

>nintendo would have to be retarded to not do a season 2 with all the momentum ultimate has at the moment
>which is exactly why they won't do a season 2

exactly this.

Ps4

I feel like SNK's going for variety as of late, i mean look, Haohmaru got sent to SC, Terry to FEXL, Geese to Tekken, Mai went to DOA, and Iori went to Million Arthur. I don't think they'd double down any of those, but at the same time no reason they couldn't.

Because SNK has been trotting their major characters around as guests in other fighters on a one game basis.

Tekken - Geese
Million Arthur - Iori
Soulcalibur - Haohmaru
EX Layer - Terry
Dead or Alive - Mai and Kula

Nakoruru is absolutely one of SNK's most pivotal characters and the only other possibilities at this point are Kyo Kusanagi and maybe Athena Asamiya.

I want Nakoruru but I can see Kyo as a mild possibility and I still would like having him. Kyo Kusanagi is cooler than like half of the existing Smash roster anyway.

Doubtful, because being a 3-in-1 is Pokemon Trainer's gimmick and Smash has made a conscious effort to move away from transformers anyway. Plus tagging is not a major mechanic in KoF and was only present for 2 entries.

That would actually shake things up quite a bit as obtuse as it would be. Obviously the player would need the option to choose the character order. I think it's a bit much to expect them to add 3 fully fleshed out movesets like that though.
