Is this the first time a literal Mii Costume has made a fully new playable character fall into irrelevancy...

Is this the first time a literal Mii Costume has made a fully new playable character fall into irrelevancy? And what does it say about the character pick?

Terry didn’t show off any gameplay that’s all.

It wouldn't have mattered. No one cares about Terry.

just one quick question for you smelly smash kiddos
ARE
YOU
OK?

zoomers would've caused sans to overshadow literally anyone whether it be dante or doomguy or whatever else, terry is a good inclusion and i'm really excited about him

>whether it be dante or doomguy
I don't think that would've been the case

I think the problem is that current SNK is far from being popular, and their most recent output is far from their golden age. Terry is a quite iconic character but not one that resonates with younger audiences.

>This is what underfags actually believe

I already forgot about Terry 20 years ago to be honest.

based

It shows little western kids really like silly skeleton man

>using Sans as a hard excuse to pretend Terry was still relevant
I knew this would happen here. People would still forget about him even without the Mii costume. More fighters, Banjo release, and even fucking SNES online overshadowed him.

>at work and forget about the direct
>a day later comes up on recommended videos
>havent been on Yea Forums so not spoiled, kind of skimming through it, didnt realize there would be a new character announced
>get lucky and catch just the very beginning of the console scroll/snk intro
>holy shit this is fucking amazing, although its gotta be terry i secretly would also love metal slug
>its fucking Terry
>i am so hype i instantly come to Yea Forums to see if people are still talking about it
>its all just people shitposting about a fucking sans mii gunner costume

I dont know what I expected. My only hope is he comes with his Garou costume

you autists are really upset that your favorite theme park mascots you draw diaper porn of didn't make it in, huh?

>SNES online
nobody cares about that shit

>whether it be dante or doomguy
Except younger audiences showed clear appreciations for both of these characters (probably thanks to their last releases which received universal critical acclaim) and are some of the most requested characters for Smash.
The last game Terry was in was KoFXIV. Not a terrible game, but not a memorable one either.

nobody has ever cared about snk

People cared about SNK. But that was long time ago.

no everyone in my group was hyped about terry
why do you hang out with ugly tumblr zoomers

>Has the best looking Render in the game
I think we're all going to be Ok user

nobody has ever cared about you

>Could have been someone actually interesting like Kyo, Iori, K' or any Metal Slug character
>Instead it's boring ass Terry
What a wasted slot.

Technically the last game he was in was SNK Heroines. Also I'm not saying Dante or Doomguy wouldn't be popular picks, I'm saying that Sans would overshadow them on Twitter and wherever else typical normie smashfags hang around

>see the circlejerking about undertale music but never cared about the game
>track in smash doesn't even compare with the goat dark man song that played during proto man's costume reveal

Is that a skeleton? What cartoon is he from?

kill yourself you little faggot
shut the fuck up

>Kyo/Iori/K
>Being cooler than Terry
LMFAO

At the end of the day Terry is still a playable character and Sans just got de confirmed no matter how many twitterfags post.

stay mad lol

I get the feeling most people are fine with Sans being a Mii Costume. They just wanted Sakurai to acknowledge the meme, and he did.

I think they would've been excited in an equal way, without any overshadowing. Terry just doesn't resonate with younger audiences, and it's not even because of zoomers or whatever generational label considering Banjo Kazooie didn't get a good game in so many years and people still went crazy about their reveal.

>Sans hard deconfirm
Okay, who's still not a spirit+a costume then? Reimu, Doomguy, Steve, Ryu (Ninja), Scorpion, Phoenix Wright, Leon Scott Kennedy/Jill Valentine, what else is left?

Also fuck you Nakorurufags, eat shit.

>reimu
>steve
not getting in in any form

>Protoman costume completely overshadowed by meme skeleton
>he's now confirmed to never be a megaman echo fighter
they did my boy dirty

Spirits don't necessarily deconfirm. Geno can make it.

it's time to let go user, there's no shame in it

She's in!

Kids just don't play fighting games it's too hard for them. They'll recognize Ryu, Scorpion, Subzero maybe even Heihachi but beyond that they don't.

make your delusion forever keep you in grief

>implying Sans won't be the irrelevant one once the novelty wears out and people come to terms with it being just a costume

i don't even know what game the other guy comes from, and i only know sans because of incessant undertale shitposting from Yea Forums.

isn't he from king of fighters or some other fighting game?

>She sure has a chance now
Stay delusional.

Imo I think announcing Terry rn was a bad idea, like literally meme skeleton was always gonna overshadow him just because of the pure surrealism of seeing Sans in smash. Just should've saved Terry for another direct imo

How in god's name will they ever recover from this? Upstaged by a literal meme character from a literal meme game. Sans isn't even the fucking MC in Undertale yet here he is pissing on the grave of their BIGGEST character from their BIGGEST franchise.

No wonder Square Enix is playing hardball. They're like "hell no we're not putting Lightning up against Sans from Undertale"

He’s even in Deltarune, the dude’s here to stay.

Terry wasn't gonna turn heads no matter what, he's there to please the fighting game enthusiasts. This was a good placement.

Sounds like cope to me. You go on other gaming forums and most people are talking about Terry. I mean, you went to the trouble of making that image, so you're obviously mad.

Nah, fighting game characters have some pop-culture value to them. You don't have to be good at them for appreciating their iconic status.
I've never seen anyone requesting Terry.

I hope

Fighting game players don't want anything from smash since they don't give a shit about it. Terry got in because Sakurai is a KOF fan.

>Kyo
>Iori
>Literally every boring Shounen anime trope rolled into two characters
>Interesting

Banjo Kazooie is wildly popular with zoomers who have never played it and heard it was a "good game"

It's not zoomers. It's smashfans. Look at who they suggest. Can you already see a trend on their "preferences"?

At least Terry has RISING TAKKU and POWA DUNK to justify being as acrobatic as Mario and Sonic.

Characters like Terry Bogard, Ryu, Ken, the Belmonts, Roy, etc. would actually get explosive reactions if they would not get fucking leaked days before every time. That's why the actual surprises bring more hype.

Y'know how I know your lying...you said you e excited for the terry, but you don't even know who he is because it's just some "edgy" brawler type character they pulled out their ass.

There's still
>Legionis
>Dante
>Crash
>Amaterasu
>Crono
>Diablo

>Legionis
no search engine helps me find out who this is, keep dreaming boyo
>dante, crash, amaterasu
pretty good
>Crono
why? we already have Hero and Chrono is just a hero clone in his own game.
>Diablo
ew

although this is true, there aren't many characters that wouldn't get overshadowed by sans

Legionis is what I assume they'd call the Astral Chain protagonist. Everyone else seems to use Akira but it's pretty explicit that you aren't playing as him/her.

They're not gonna fucking call him legionis. His name is Howard

oh astral chain? yeah, they definitely stand a chance. IMO i thought you were talking about that obscure roman legion soldier i saw posted a few times

That's just classic Americentrism you fucking idiot.

I think it's more that people who care about Terry Bogard actually play those fighting games and not smash.

His last name is Howard.

Pretty much. If they wanted another fighting game character to add and they wanted mass appeal they should have went with Scorpion or Sub Zero because MK is much more popular in casual circles.

Thats still his name

Anyone else notice the reveal clip where he was dodging 2 villagers, one of which had spaghetti and one of which had a hotdog? Cute.

That would go over even worse considering the huge disparity between the two.

>Causes far more butthurt and whining than Sans
Based af imo

Why the fuck should we care about something nobody has heard of over the greatest game of all time?

It was inevitable. Terry was the mid-season reveal. Joker was the opening salvo at the Game Awards for maximum impact while Hero and Banjo got pride of place at E3.
Meanwhile Terry just debuted in early September and there was no way he was gonna evoke the same reaction as the other three regardless.

The bar is pretty low if that's all you need. Literally any poor, obscure choice could do that for you.

SNK has a ton of unique characters and they actually showed some during Terry's reveal, only to settle on argueabley the most generic of the bunch. If they had gone with Nakoruru, Iori, some Samurai fucking character from LB, anything, it would have been better. Terry is anti-soul.

OHNONONO THEY ARE STILL NOT OKAY!

He's talking about banjo, not terry. If you go online there are way more sans players than banjo players

Epic meme redditbro

There's very little butthurt for Terry, honestly. It's just typical Smash rosterfaggotry.

It says that people will suck Toby's dick over anything. I already know people who are interested in Town because of his involvement even though the trailer reeked of kusoge.

>It says that people will suck Toby's dick over anything.
Because he's a cool guy. And everyone agrees that his music is great.

That's such a fucking bad pick that it's almost based.

Come on, get serious!

Iori is edgy
Terry is what Japan thinks Americans are

Maybe I was unlucky but I tried playing some, and I got nearly all Banjos, no Sans.
Which sucked, I was actually looking for them. I wanted some Mii Gunner dittos, since Gunner is and has been my main.

Hard to be mad when there isn't really anything to be mad about. With the announcement of another fighter pass there can be one or two shitty and irrelevant characters without it being too much of an issue.

Just want to say this, if you think Terry's reception was lukewarm, Doomguy's would be even fucking worse.

We made it Sansbros, we’re both in before Geno, Ashley, Shantae, and all that other gay shit

*for their background cameos

>I don't care about Terry! I don't care about him!
Ok mutt.

yeah but he's the only one

Yeah you’re full of shit. Accept Terry is an incredibly niche character user. Doom is incredibly important to video game history and is still relevant in 2019. People know what Doom is. I’m sure even Japanese people would recognize him even if they don’t want it.

>implying they’re not gonna be Stage hazards you have to fight
You guys ready for Geese to come out and start PREDICTOBU the shit out of everyone while his theme starts playing?

I see plenty of talk/complaints about Terry. This thread included.

So much for overshadowing.

>Accept Terry is an incredibly niche character user.
not to the fighting game community

goes to show that zoomers just care more for the meme skeleton than an actual fucking fighting game character.

Attached: Pathetic.png (700x700, 184K)

Why are you pretending that boomers give a shit about fighting games?

Your argument was that Doom Guy would get a more lukewarm reception than Terry. Now you’re basically saying Terry only matters to the FGC. Doom Guy appeals to a much wider audience than just the FGC, I can’t see how you’d think his reception would be worse than Terry’s.

because fightans are stupid fun

people familiar with fighting game characters aren't playing smash

>Terry didn’t even get a stickied thread
Imagine thinking anyone actually gave a fuck about this character

I'm not even him, nor was I following the reply chain
that being said you have more reason to shit on Banjo than Terry if you want to talk about gaming legacy

Nobody cared about Goemon.
Nobody cared about Rex.
But when it comes to Undermeme, they cheered. It's sad really.

i blame you fags for killing all potential hype for terry,if we watched the reveal blindly it would have been magical

>what does it say about the character pick?
It was too safe. Remember, this season pass was handpicked by Nintendo, while Sans mii costume was very much a Sakurai decision, to the point of him formally addressing he did it because that was a highly requested character

twitter.com/tobyfox/status/1169387070529429504
It kinda did.
