i love micro transactions
>micro transactions
You don't seem understand what that word means.
Literally who gives a shit about Smash anymore? Buncha fucking children. y'all are.
HE'S IN
Oh yeah?
he is
the 80% of Yea Forums and its mods that are currently violating rule 2.
Better than the first one
>People still posting characters that are already spirits
"Just when I thought I was out... They pull me back in"
Yeah. Right back in the dumpster.
i want to believe...with all my heart
smashfags are the muslims of video games
Not much of an measuring stick, is it?
These are macro transactions
We're all gonna make it bros
HE'S COMING
BRACE YOURSELVES
i just noticed the smash letter is literally the japanese flag
He's in
bros I’m getting scared that reimu is becoming a possibility
best indie rep
>reimu is becoming a possibility
How?
can you put "smash" somewhere in your op so i can filter your threads more easily?
thanks bro
I love not having a sequel to a 2001 game
imagine there will be a Super Smash Bros Maker where you all can make your own fighter just like those glorious m.u.g.e.n days
There has never been an official statement declaring Spirits off limit for new characters.
>g*no
This game is a subset of Yea Forums itself. There's so much videogame in it that it should to belong here.
It's inevitable.
I agree with this pass suggestion.
>*makes Yea Forums seethe*
Don't wanna jinx nothing... but where did the Stevefags go? They sprang up when more DLC was announced, but then they disappeared just as fast. Not that I mind, Creeper would be the superior Minecraft rep, anyway.
she’s literally the only indie rep left
Mark my words
I swear on my mother's life
God damn Alien Hominid will be in Smash Brothers before Reimu or Shantae.
Aren't they spirits in the first place because they were too weak to become fighters or something like that?
Considering Piranha Plant is a fighter I can't imagine that's the explanation.
Reminder that they're in
no fuck you. Wii Fit Trainer will never be a playable character.
>More Xenoblade reps
It's most likely that the new characters will all be from franchises that haven't been represented yet, based on various statements from Sakurai and Reggie. It would be nice to get some clarity on this for the sake of discussion.
Which means my never evers are all RIP.
Let's make this clear: this manlet faggot and his mommy gf are never getting in smash. EVER.
1. Sakurai clearly spelled out for you idiots only more game worlds (ie more new IPs) from now on.
2. Even if this wasn't the case both of them are already spirits in the game.
3. He's also a shitty mii costume THAT YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR, do you think it would be well received if sakurai made you pay for dlc of the actual character when he already made you pay for a costume under the premise he wouldn't get in the game?
4. They missed their chance. Their game is too old to shill now. Nintendo would rather shill Astral Chain and Faggot Emblem.
5. Xeno is already repped enough with Shulk. It doesn't need anymore. "BUT FIRE EMBLEM", yeah everyone hates Faggot Emblem for having too many underserved reps, why do you want another case of this shit?
>"B-But Sakurai wanted him in the game there just wasn't enough tim-
"No!"
Sakurai paying some lip service to disappointed Xeno fans does in no way obligate him to work on characters that have nothing going for them just because he has more DLC slots to fill now.
Now pay 25$ for his mii costume, stop talking about them in every smash thread and fuck off.
Sakurai said Rex would have been in had the game or concept art come out just slightly earlier than it did, and even apologized to fans since he was the number 1 most wanted character in Japan.
He's in. That's what round 2 is probably about, first party characters that couldn't make the cut. Realistically I expect Rex, Waddle Dee, maybe Geno, a 3H rep, and one other first party rep
>Character has both a Mii Costume and a playable character
I find this to be excruciatingly unlikely, but it would set a fantastic precedent that would tear these kinds of threads the fuck apart.
It's for that reason I hope one of the upcoming characters is a Spirit, Assist Trophy or Boss. Just throw all of the theoryfagging out the goddamn window.
>Sakurai clearly spelled out for you idiots only more game worlds (ie more new IPs) from now on.
Not even remotely what he said in the actual recent JP direct retard.
But I'll enjoy smug posting when Rex is revealed to coincide with XCDE
Ok then, what'd he say, and post source.
We believed previous costumes couldn't become characters and then K Rool happened.
For years the argument against K Rool was that a costume couldn't become a character later. Just like the argument against Ridley was that Sakurai said no, the argument against Sonic and Snake was no third parties, and the argument against Cloud + Ryu was that the third party in question has to have a good relationship with Sakurai.
Sakurai has no permanent rules, he adds whoever he wishes as long as big N can make it happen
Its still only third party
If its both then Nintendo would probably release a ballot or some shit to get a clear idea of what people want. I just dont expect them scuffing AT, Spirits, Mii outfits to playable
the whole point of those is a consolation prize
until Smash 6
These all have a commonality though. All of these "rules" Sakurai put forward were broken in the NEXT game.
Rex is a costume in the CURRENT game.
I'm sorry user. We don't always get what we want, I know.
Sakurai DOES have a permanent rule, though: they must be from a video game.
I know this isn't really related to your argument, just thought I'd mention it.
Waiting until the exact moment to strike. Minecraft is coming to Smash. Sakurai said he wants to expand to more game worlds, well Minecraft is the biggest one
He said brand new fighters and worlds.
As in fighters and levels my dude, don't be retarded. Has nothing to do with an IP.
Otherwise Geno is automatically out for being a Mario rpg character, monster Hunter is out because we have a monhun level and boss etc. All what he said really means is that we won't get a character from the same exact game as another, like such as no Reyn, no Waluigi, no Tifa, no SF rep etc.
Goku will happen one day
Sakurai never sticks to rules forever
Good relationship with third parties was literally broken in the middle of Smash 4.
this but unironically
>Geno is out because he's a Mario character
I've already accepted Fawful is out for this reason.
>Monster Hunter is out because we have a monster hunter level
I'm willing to argue this too.
Also
>Won't get a character from the same exact game as another
Fucking Geno deconfirmed, shows up in the same game as both Mario and Bowser.
who cares fag kys
Geno? more like, hell no!
No I’m sorry. If SHE gets in, SHE will unironically kill Yea Forums.
You're being obtuse because you don't like how high Rex's chances are given how Sakurai explicitly said he wanted to add him but couldn't.
You're setting yourself up for some seethe
do you faggots actually believe this unironically
no seriously, no one cares about geno
HE
HAS
NO
STYLE
HE

NO GRACE
THIS
NIGGER
HAS
A
FUNNY FACE
Why would Sakurai make you pay $25 for the Rex costume only for him to actually be playable for $6?
*deludes genofags for another year*
Is this supposed to be a pro-Geno image? Because if so maybe they shouldn't have used the shot right before Thanos gets BTFO.
Phenomenal.
Man why is Mung Dahl getting in, instead of Gorganzola
me when I make a new smash dlc fighter thread
vocaroo.com
>Reiwho
See you in Smash 20
>We believed previous costumes couldn't become characters and then K Rool happened
Nobody believed this. The notion is that that can't become playable in the current game if they exist as a costume before existing as a fighter
>round 2 is all about guys who didn't get the cut
>sakurai literally states in the direct that his goal is to gather as many game worlds as possible together
Sh-shut up
I'll be genuinely fucking astonished if Rex gets in as paid DLC.
Granted, I will posit that he might be free DLC, that's not outside the realm of possibility.
But it's so close to the barriers of possibility that it's not really worth arguing.
>and levels
I'm going to pretend I know japanese, but he clearly says "sekai" as in, you know, "world". It's clear he means to bring new franchises.
this but unironically (2)
>people somehow think all limits are dropped despite them never saying so
How is adding Rex bringing in more game worlds? That's the world of Xenoblade, which Shulk is already in representing. Don't be retarded user
>that timeline where smash post legit never ends
>inb4 Minecraft gets a stage and nothing else.
why does smash get a free pass with having multiple threads up at the same time at all times?
other games are only allowed to do that near launch or after a major update
Stages are only added alongside corresponding fighters. Either Steve comes alongside a stage, or we don't get either
Japan Time?
More like
For the rest of all time.
I agree with your post dude, I was contradicting that other user.
Because it was a fun costume
I'd wager if he did it he'd make him like a pirahhna plant scenario too. I'd you bought all of season 1 by a certain point you get Rex for free
If you faggots stopped whining you'd realize most people don't actually care
>It was a fun costume
>Fun
>Costume
I'm fucking confuse
I just wish people could cope with their character being a AT, Spirit, and Mii outfit
Instead of thinking Sakurai is le ruse man who's going to sell this 100 something characters already in the game as DLC on top of replacing their former spots in the same game, just fucking absurd
Got it.
fpbp of fpbps
Piranha Plant was free because he was supposed to be base game and didn't make the deadline. Sakurai's not going to spend hours working on a character after the fact and make it free
I just want it to be over.
Pure delusion
Actually, if you look at the pre-DLC stage screen, there's 6 empty spaces. Obviously, 5 of them are for the Fighter's Pass, but what about the last space? A bonus stage could go there.
Please examine pic related
>S*yjak
Pic of everyone in this thread
Fair point, but they haven't established whether or not the non-Pass DLC will have stages. Maybe they will, but I doubt it.
GOOD MOOOOORNING Yea Forums.
Go to bed.
Steve will be a costume for wii swordsman
He'll be announced at the next direct detailing terry bogard.
also the 5th dlc fighter is reimu.
>Thinking Reimu will be a fighter
Reimu's gonna get a Mii Swordsman costume too.
5th DLC fighter is gonna be Something nobody's been asking for but the moment it's revealed a bunch of people will crawl out of the woodwork and call them selves _____fags and say that _____ is their Never-Ever.
1. “Game worlds” is vague. XB2 game world is different then XB1 world. XB2 made that clear. Come back to me when Sakurai says they are going to be 3rd party guests only.
2. There are playable characters that have spirit equivalents. It’s not the same as assist trophies.
3. The whole reason for the mii costume was to tide over XB2 fans. You omitted that Sakurai even had a little section explaining he wanted Rex playable initially due to being a fan of XB2 but XB2 missed the initial boat on their game release hence pity mii costume + XB2 music as consolation. Mii costumes like spirits is not auto DQ like assist trophies since there are playable equivalents.
4. “Game is too old” is not an excuse. Banjo literally doesn’t have another game coming and last game was from a decade+ ago. Again XB2 didn’t get in initially because the game was too new so “too old” is not gonna fly. What makes you think Astral Chain or 3H won’t fall into the “too new” reason like XB2?
5.Xeno has enough reps? Are you high? Xenoblade series has 3.5 games with only Shulk the protag of game 1 making the playable roster. Plenty of existing series on roster at minimum has 2-3 reps.
Sit down it’s way too early to claim what the next pass will consist of. You also forgot how Sakurai casually added Piranha Plant that was separate from the pass as a bonus character.
Guys, please, if your character is already in the game as a spirit, an assist trophy, or a mii outfit, then it's over, they are deconfirmed!
Please, for the love of God, stop trying to delude yourselves, for the sanity of everyone involved!
Prove it.
If they want to be retarded then let them, its no use trying to help people who willingly act stupid
Maybe you should have your sanity check.
Yeah bro I'm sure sakurai didn't mean new game series, he meant ACKSHUALLY TECHNICALLY NEW WORLDS IN THE GAME'S CANON ONLY NERDS KNOW ABOUT
Those spirits are of K. Rool's alter-ego's, not K. Rool himself. Same goes for the various Mario sprites.
I would assume they will. Only DLC characters to not come with stages were first party. And Sakurai's comment about "Expanding to more game worlds" implies the next ones will also be franchises not in Smash
she's not happening you huge retard. unironically geno and doom slayer have more possibilities at this point than your literal who waifu. inb4: "geno is a literal who!!" yes, he is. but he is a literal who that's had a strong demand for decades to the point of sakurai acknowledging him several times.
reimu is not getting in, get over it.
Still waiting on that “3rd party guests only” quote from Sakurai on 9/4. Otherwise your just reaching for your narrative Also Pirannha Plant was definitely from a new game series lol
>y'all
go back
Yeah, I'm thinkin he's in.
HAHAHA! THIS FAGGOT WATCHES CAPESHIT!!!
Everybody point and laugh at him!
bros...
*gasp*
*wheeze*
is there
*cough*
is there any hope for the Toad?
>In regards to the fighters pass
>"These are going to be characters that are new to the series, just like Joker from Persona 5!"
There are still people that think this doesn't mean the pass will be entirely third party
Those same people think this doesn't mean exclusively 3rd party as well
*eats the last Smash invitation*
In theory they could do an Astral Chains DLC and not be lying in this statement.
If they're gonna do an indie rep it's gonna be Steve and you know it.
>"B-but Banjo!"
Only makes it easier to use Steve because they've already worked with Microsoft. No, they are not limited to using one character from each company, this is a stupid fan rule.
>"But Touhou is REALLY popular in Japan!"
And so is Minecraft, but it's also popular worldwide. If you showed random kids a picture of Minecraft Steve, they'd know right off the bat what it is. Show them a picture of Reimu and they'll think it's one of those tentacle comics their unattractive older brother reads at night. Like it or not, Minecraft is the definitive indie success story, a game made by a Yea Forumsirgin in his basement turned into a global phenomenon. I don't think it's exaggeration to call it the most iconic game of the 2010s. So if you're trying to represent indie games in Smash, would you go for the one that's "popular in japan trust me" or the one that's popular in Japan but also the entire rest of the world?
>"But Reimu appeared in a Taiko Drum Master game and Kirby did too, that practically makes her a Nintendo character!"
Yes, and Minecraft was host to Mario itself. Your point? Taiko Drum Master isn't even a Nintendo game, it's a Namco game, and they'll put pretty much any anime bullshit they can into those games.
>"But nobody likes Steve, they just project themselves onto him!"
Tell that to the aisles of Steve merchandise in the toy department of pretty much any store out there.
>"I JUST WANT TO FANTASIZE ABOUT LICKING REIMU'S ARMPITS PLEASE STOP"
You can shut up now.
Piranha isn't even part of any pass, just a character they couldn't finish in time for christmas and gave away for free some time later
>most wanted is Dante
>he has to get picked over a Monster Hunter Rep, Leon, and Phoenix Wright to get in
im not liking my chances
Monster Hunter is probably out of the running at least since the Monster Hunter team really doesn't like the hunters being playable in crossovers.
Resident Evil is a huge thing to get over though.
Just a reminder that this is going to be the second Fighters Pass:
A Fire Emblem Three Houses character
Akaira Howard (The default male and female player character from Astral Chain)
A Pokemon from Sword and Shield
Two third party characters
Game dev: Who should we add?
Sakurai: Yes
>A Fire Emblem Three Houses character
The world of Fire Emblem is in Smash already
>Akaira Howard
Not represented, but very doubtful
>Pokemon from Sword and Shield
The world of Pokemon is in Smash already
>Two Third Party characters
As long as their franchise isn't in Smash yet
See
Sakurai only said "worlds" that means at least two, but not necessarily more than two.
Thank the Lord its still only going to be third party, that's absolute trash
That's besides the point. I'm not arguing the quantity of fighters, but just the fact that Sakurai already confirmed he wants to expand to NEW worlds
This is some gigacope
user, these are entire fighters that we know for a fact are being developed after the game was completed. I'll gladly pay for more content in a game. Its not like Modern games where the DLC fighters are cut from the main game and sold at launch COUGHBBTAGCOUGH
I'm just prepared for disappointment.
I suggest you also prepare.
>The world of Fire Emblem is in Smash already
Most FE games take place in different worlds, 3H's is unique to it, so "Fódlan" would technically count as a new world if you want to use that argument.
>>Akaira Howard
>Not represented, but very doubtful
Personally, I feel this is the most likely character as they'd have a Leigon with them acting like a much bigger Luma.
>>Pokemon from Sword and Shield
>The world of Pokemon is in Smash already
A weaker version of the argument used for FE3H can be made, plus Pokemon prints money and is a very safe pick.
>>Two Third Party characters
>As long as their franchise isn't in Smash yet
Of course.
>Most FE games take place in different worlds
I can't believe so many tards use this disingenuous argument, you know perfectly well Sakurai didn't mean "game worlds" in that sense
Fuck off. Your not making Shantae look any better. INFACT your making her look worse compared to Reimufags.
>Jibanyan
Bro.....I fucking wish. If he gets in, Yo-Kai Watch could FINALLY flourish in America and actually become at least a bit more popular. The games are fucking fun as hell, especially Blasters. Blasters is the best entry (that isn’t Japan exclusive).
Unironically based. Dude. I’d main THE SHIT outta Putt Putt if he got in.
>Another year of fake leaks, roster threads and people begging for their literal who to get in
The best part about Hero is that Sora and 2b will never be in, stay mad.
>Sora will never be in
>He doesn’t account for the possibility of him getting in the next smash entry
Rent free
Nigga I dont even want reimu in. Its bad for the 2hu fanbase if she gets in
That implies that it wasn’t bad for the Dragon Quest Fanbase when Hero got in, or the Castlevania Fanbase when Simon & Richter got in.
It would pretty much completely destroy the Touhou fandom as it currently exists.
The western 2hu fanbase can't get any worse anyways. Smash would unironically be a better entry point than porn and IOSYS videos that people never move on from.
This post will not age well, Sora basically gonna happen with this announcement
2b I will give you cause Taro would not want them to nerf her ass but a outfit is possible
Minecraft isn’t indie anymore
I mean it would be insane to see it happen, but the smush fandom would basically murder 2hu and send it back to the 2008 days
This. Worlds meaning Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Super Mario, Street Fighter, Zelda, etc.
It'd be far worse than that.
Oh i know. It would be a terrible fate. I dread it more because its actually fucking possible
Unironically the most likely character in this whole thread.
Smash fandom will probably just despise touhou for getting in before their irrelevant puppet, purple meme man, or 14th fire emblem rep rather than actually get interested in the fandom. They don’t actually play anything besides smash and nintendo at this point
Vote, faggots.
Remember it says that it's what you expect it to be, not what you want it to be.
Did you even see the smash poll thread earlier? She never placed in both the west and japan.
If fan requests were a ticket into smash then joker, terry, and piranha plant wouldn’t be dlc and we’d be getting waluigi, shantae, and bandanna dee. Suffice to say, I’m glad the team doesn’t listen to the fans for every little thing
>2 first party
Oh boy Shillmon and FE, I hate first partyfags so much
Imagine wanting to pay for dumb shit like this
they'd also bitch that its another animu character instead of someone """better""".
reimu would be fun, but its the fanbase I fucking hate
docs.google.com
She placed 20th, just nine votes below Monster Hunter.
Even a small percentage of new blood as a result of a Smash inclusion would irreparably damage the Touhou fandom.
*slurp, slurp*
sakurai cock sooo gooood
Since you didn't make an option for it, 2 third party characters.
There's not enough info yet to be sure there will be more than two.
I'd take Edelgard or Dimitri over indieshit or trash like Geno any day.
That's literally the second most popular option on the poll though.
All of that is terrible and I wish the Geno meme would die already
waluigi isnt even an interesting character he would literally be purple luigi.
Sora and indie characters are shit too, homie.
No I mean two third party characters and that's it. No first parties. Just two third parties.
I will take anything over first party trash, and I'd only want Disney kid in to see Genofags seethe more
Oh, my apologies then.
Smash fanbase deserves to be confused as fuck at reimu after they considered SNK a literal who company
I’ve never particularly been a stickler when it came to the quality of this community but the potential damage it would do is a small price to pay for Touhou being represented in the largest fighting game of all time. As long as even more artwork is made with remixes coming out the ass (especially ones made by actual composers), I would be more than ecstatic for Reimu to be in. It might be bias talking because I play and enjoy both games but it’d still be a dream for me.
Same, but I care for the health of the fanbase. Seeing touhou being put in bad spotlight because of smelly smashfags would just make me mad
Personally, don't care for Yokai Watch, but I totally see this happening. The franchise may not be as huge as Level 5 wanted, but it's clearly their for runner right now in the mainstream media, and Level 5 is a HUGE developer in Japan right now, and an important third party ally of Nintendo.
In all honestly it as much, or even more sense than picks like Joker and Terry. The only downside is that a huge part of the Nintendo fandom would rather Layton instead.
I personally don't really care for one or the other, but I think that if SNK can get a rep, Level 5 should be almost a sure deal in the near future.
This but unironically
its a coincidence
please for the love of god
>all these insiders barking about Halo on Switch, though they do admittedly have very good track records now
>halo games still mia
Is he actually in
Fact you can have Halo on Minecraft Switch. If Cloud could get in through a shit Cringedom Hearts cameo before he can do the same.
What is that? The Yea Forums poll?
>people want fucking bandana waddle dee
And fucking sora after that blunder of game. I'm glad square already got their rep.
Will never happen as long as Sakurais in charge.
She's in.
>YFW we get a character with a spear in Smash and it's fucking Dimitri
The seething alone would be worth the $20 fighters pass
I dont understand why people cant cope that a character is a fucking spirit
>not Gee, no
What happened, Mung?
Precure in Smash when?
That's not Gazpacho.
Ryu Hayabusa, Doom Slayer, Waluigi, and Geno are the last DLC characters. Geno was held off for last to be seen as a “wish granter” for the fans. You’re welcome.
I wouldn't care, he's cool on my book. But i want them to fucking remove corrin even they got a original moveset. Worst fucking lord ever.
how do you possibly make a sequel to this
You don’t, which is why Sakurai wants to keep adding more 3rd parties and shit to the game.
>b**r in smash
impossible
Based and DABpilled
I SWEAR TO GOD IF WE GET A YOKAI WATCH REP BEFORE GETTING AN INAZUMA ELEVEN REP I WILL MAKE KYOANI LOOK LIKE A FUCKING JOKE
Just let my boy in already
Very possible!
I just want it to end
Please make it stop
>we know for a fact are being developed after the game was completed.
>Its not like Modern games where the DLC fighters are cut from the main game and sold at launch
How do you know? "They told us" is not a valid answer. Never trust the words of someone who's selling you something.
It is all very tiresome for sure.
Regardless of what character ends up being the final last character they're gonna get shit posted into oblivion.
>Jin
Lame. Make it Heihachi and then it'd be based
Yes user, Terry has been in the game files for a whole year, its just that nobody bothered to check
Consider the following:
I... can actually see that happening.
And there's only one more spot on the pass.
Rest of them aren't bound by any of the old rules.
The big question is just how well did the original fighter pass sell? Because Sakurai clearly didn't plan for this extension.
I'm sure they will announce Master Chief at the Games Awards and Phil Spencer will say something like
>"This will be the only chance to have many iconic video game characters in one game, so we talked to Nintendo to include Master Chief in Smash!"
nigga stop acting like he's giving an official ruleset. Sakurai can't say two words without people going "okay he said this so he HAS to have something absolute in mind."
He's just hyping up the fighters.
Quote would look good in 3D.
Way better than Tr4sh DLC for sure, its also why I dont see them going back to first party picks like Corrin and Roy when 3rd party only is this profitable
and kills sakurai ;-; rip sweet prince.
>Implying that after these big ass sales with Hero, Squeenix (and Disney) won't try to vouch for Sora now.
You're just making it happen with that kind of thinking, boy.
I doubt Nintendo and Sakurai would want to deal with more copyright bullshit now with the fucking mouse, but okay, is happening although is not.
Given Sakurai previously went on record on Smash 4's DLC not selling well and we're suddenly get post pass stuff probably very well.
A combination of both it not being on the Wii U and the DLC not being echos or shill characters probably helped.
I was hoping for just a mii costume but I'm thinking he's in
Fuck nu Yea Forums, it deserves to suffer
they'll keep adding on to it for years. at this point 2 more season passes don't seem unlikely given what sakurai said on the direct. then they'll reboot the franchise cutting the roster and giving everyone new movesets.
If you mean to tell me Dr. Fantastic wouldn't get in before Lee Oliver, I've got news for you.
