Insiders claim it'll be Terry

based

because MS is just as popular as the KoF games.

people can pretend to be retarded all they want but fact is terry is a terrible choice.
MS has story with nintendo and is a franchise even zoomer have heard of and played, meanwhile AoF Samsho and KOF are mostly arcade games that failed miserable at adapting to recent times.

Imagine if snk goes bankrupt again the next years, MS would still be liked by most players, not to mention fits better with smash than hat ken.

I think sakurai has said something about not wanting to add characters already crossing over in stuff. That was one of the main reasons he didn't add Decidueye.

Wait what the fuck, been playing Metal Slug 1-5 since basically forever but I've never noticed spooky tarma. When does this happen? Getting killed after getting turned into a mummy?

Sakurai says a lot of stuff he said villager cant be a fighter too

I think you gotta fall into acid or something

I hope he keeps to that thought instead of going back on it like everything he says ever
because I agree with him there
I don't want more Capcom crossovers when they have every crossover ever and Terry/Geese are in everything already

In my post I said Terry being crossover DLC in multiple fighting games shouldn't be an issue. Unless is true. I believe Sakurai also once said something on the lines of "being interested in adapting non-fighting game characters into Smash because of their move set potential". I mean we currently have 2 fighting game characters in smash so the quote likely means nothing now, but the quote alone would be enough for Sakurai to choose Marco over other characters, and Marco arguably has a lot more to bring to the table as far as move set potential.

I guess Megaman isn't gonna be in smash bros since he's already in MvC2.

There was another leak with the codenames "soldier" and "spin" but it got the dates wrong.

I so desperately want it to be Marco and the gang. But it is almost definitely Terry. If it isn't Terry then Sabi's gonna need some explaining to do.

Because it's fucking awesome and just as cartoonish as Smash needs.

think they will pay homage to lewd animations from metal slug?

How so? By having some games being published on Nintendo consoles like Advance and 7?

I don't think smash's KO style would even allow for any of those kinds of opportunitys

fits Smash better

I really fucking hope the SNK rep is from Metal Slug. Terry is awesome and all but Marco and the gang would be so much cooler to play as in Smash.

It's Kyo

If Marco & co got in, what do you think their final smash would be? Only things I can think of are:
>Something like Megaman and DQ where everyone appears, gets into a Metal Slug and blast the enemy
>Something like Fox, Falco and Wolf back in Brawl with the Landmaster, except it's a Metal Slug

You Slugfags are just as insufferable as the Nakoretards.

Wrong, Metal Slug is also mainly an arcade franchise and Fatal Fury, Samsho, Art of Fighting had Nintendo entries since the SNES days, with KoF getting a game on the Gameboy, Metal Slug's first Nintendo entry was on the GBA.
MS Anthology was on the Wii too and all the neo-geo slug games are on Switch, still waiting for XX or even 6.

>Vergeben kept pushing the idea of Minecraft content being in Smash

>Banjo-Kazooie are confirmed with no sign of Steve or Minecraft content
>If there's actually Minecraft content coming along with Banjo-Kazooie then it's going to be Steve as a Mii costume or a spirit, or both
You see what's possibly going on here? A "credible" insider pushes the idea of a certain character is going to be in Smash and generates hype, only for it to be the other character that's owned by the same company. We'll find out in a few hours who the SNK fighter is going to be but these insiders could just be telling half truths so the hype for DLC 4 isn't completely spoiled.

MvC2's finally coming out? That game has been in development hell. When's the release date?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......... Maybe something goofy like Fio knocking out her opponent but then getting caught off-guard by the martians and morden's army and ducking out of the way just in the neck of time as they start blasting her, only for whoever she final-smash'd to get blast'd instead.

What you said can also hold true for the playstation and PC. To my knowledge, most MS games are available on those consoles as well

While I also want Metal Slug to be in, I don't think Sakurai would put the whole Peregrine Falcon team in as Marco's alts.
Remember that alt costumes all have the exact same animation frames and winposes even when it makes no sense, when each MS character has their own anims and quirks in their original games that are part of their charm. Marco has the spring punch, Tarma has a runny nose, Eri chews bubblegum when idle, Fio collapses after a mission, the men have pistols and knives while the ladies have revolvers and axes, the list goes on.
Knowing how much of a perfectionist Sakurai is when it comes to detail, I really doubt he'd put in Eri and Fio with Marco's animations, unfortunately. It'd be Marco solo or Marco/Tarma, at most.

Yeah Metal Slug's on everything!

That quote applies to recency retard, as it’s fucking megaman. Leagues bigger than terry “literal who” bogard.

>SNK rep won’t just be “Metal Slug” with all four characters as skins like with DQ
It hurts

>tfw they have all that which is why they are in Pack 4
Probably too much work but it'd be neat

>you can jump out of the metal slugs go avoid damage
I never knew this

I think it would depend on what animations do they make (for the mechanical glove maybe all of them are using a backpack and there's no runny nose animation when Marco is on the ledge, victory poses and taunts are the tough ones) or if they make Fio Marco's Echo with an Eri alt so she can have different animations but i dont think it's gonna happen.

Only game I've played with Metal Slug characters is Neo Geo Battle Coliseum, although I did play Marco in that. I'd be just as cool with him or Fio as I would with Terry or Haohmaru or Kyo. I ought to play the MS series itself sometime though. Always seen such amazing things in clips.

These webms make me feel like a shitter

Yeah when you're sonic you're invincible!
Took a bit of practice on my part
but ohhhhhh god is it satisfying to take down rootmars without getting hit. Those freakin' orbs man, they're completely random and you gotta think on the fly... Hopping outta the slug is a must for it, and letting your slug get hit is basically game over... I'm not sure if that's good game design.... But it's a very satisfying boss to end everything on, even if he does have just the one pattern

metal slug adapts better to console the way it is, kof needs an active online community to work nowadays.
>Metal Slug's first Nintendo entry was on the GBA.
you say that like its a bad thing.

I remember MSA being fun. Not as good as the others but still a good time

What if its a metal slug tank, but all the alts are different SNK series including Terry.

Different snk series driving the tank*

I'd be fine with the tank. The tank's cool.
well, I guess it's not really the same without the team itslef on-foot. They did try to make the original game just the slug at first, but it didn't really grab people on test-plays so they added Marco and Tarma

Wat game is this sprite from?

Neo Geo Battle Coliseum

Neo Geo Battle Coliseum on PS2, the only fighting game that had Metal Slug in it.

Aliens come and attack

What if it’s both?

All of the victory poses are possible. For example you can have everyone do the same pose as Eri except for the bubblegum part. Have the victory poses shared but exculde the minor parts that are apart of their character, pretty much little cosmetic changes here and there. It would need to happen in their move set as well but only for the melee weapon. Marco and Tarma use a knife while Eri and Fio use a Hatchet and a Tonfa/Nightstick. One melee weapon they could all potentially share could be the Zantetsu Sword as their F-Smash.
>Functions similar to Link's f-smash, the one that shoots a projectile at 0%
>Marco's Zantetsu Sword would work the same way except you don't need to be at 0% to shoot the projectile
>The projectile itself is less powerful than getting hit by the sword but it can stun your opponent, letting you follow up with one of your guns mid to long range

Attached: Zentatsu_sword_sprite.gif (168x63, 9K)

Shouldn’t their smash attacks be projectile related? Like mii gunner’s or mega man’s?

I think most of their projectiles should be their specials.
Zantetsu Sword is the best pick for a Fsmash, Thundercloud could be an Upsmash (sorta like a mini version of pikachu/pichu's thunder) and down smash could either be a fire grenade (works kinda like snake's upsmash but when it hits the ground it puts the area around Marco on fire) or something like K.Rool's dsmash with Marco getting fat and doing a belly flop or a butt-slam.

Nigga if megaman can do it why not marco?

It's a hybrid of both a projectile and melee close range. The projectile could stun your opponent like Zero Suit's gun, or you could go the route of having the projectile having good knock back. But yeah, that's one of the ways you could build a moveset for Marco. Megaman and Mii Gunner are also great choices to pull from if you're going to make a Metal Slug character a Gunner type fighter. Personally I would like the guns to be handled for his specials, aerials, and tilt attacks. Marco's neutral special (Handgun by default), d-tilt, f-tilt and all aerial moves should work just like how his gameplay does from the source material. Mega-Man was handled in a similar way but Marco would obviously shine even better with this playstyle. If Marco were to have a POW in his move set, down special for example, and walks around in the background (like Pokemon Trainer) then he could give you new guns at random. The new gun now replaces your current gun that's used for your specials, aerials, and tilts. The only specials that remain the same are his recovery and his side special, the Grenade.

If Marco didn't have the ability to summon a Slug in his moveset I imagine he would play kind of similar to this.

I feel like did it best with the A moves being his gun.

Ol reliable. The standard tank.

If it caters to multiple leaks, meaning at least one of them is almost guaranteed to be made up, then it probably isn't correct

pls be metal slug

slug should be in the moveset. have the giant hermit crab come up and attack everyone from the background.

I'd shoot hot cum if the Down-A is the slide from Metal Slug 5, just as an attack
