I still believe that he will make it. I just feel it in my heart.
Before they announced more fighters beyond the original pass his chances were pretty slim, but now I feel like he has a fairly decent shot, especially with Sakurai starting that his main goal with the later DLCs is to "please the fans". He won't be the fifth fighter of the first pass but beyond that? I think he has a good chance.

Good, when he's confirmed as a costume it'll be funnier that way.
Nolan Carter
>is a spirit
David Long
Spirits obviously deconfirm characters in the current fighters pass because that was all being planned while the game was in development and while spirits were being added to the game. Now that there's this previously unplanned DLC on the way that entire 'rule' could easily go out of the window.
Matthew Gonzalez
Spirits don’t mean shit, especially now post-Fighter Pass. If Sakurai or Nintendo wanted to add him, they wouldn’t go “whoops, he’s already a spirit! Shucks.” *shrug* You’d be a fool to think otherwise
Ayden Kelly
He's going to get a new better mii costume with remixed tracks, released with Sora around February
hope not geno needs to be added, as a chracter, along with sora
Ayden Morales
Unfortunately, thats the best case scencario at this point
Sakurai's already stated he wants to add as many worlds as possible, meaning most of the characters will be from series unrepresented
John Howard
>The spirit of him in game dosen't even show his true and original form Because we never saw his original form aside from a glowing ball of light
Juan Howard
Sadly, he will only be a costume with a remix of Forezt Maze.
Thomas Nelson
>Has a lot of interesting attacks that could definitely make a unique moveset So, why any of all the genotards on this board never made a fucking example of a potential moveset for him?
Eli Rivera
It's like being proud making a move set for SF Ryu. It's obvious.
The only possible movesets they think of is based on the moveset made for the Geno in Legacy XP
Owen Russell
a spirit in the body of a doll, what's your point lame joke
Alexander Morris
It’s still crazy to me that Geno wasn’t integrated as a key element of World of Light
Gavin Anderson
GENO COOOMBLAST
Asher Parker
You sound upset. He has a decent selection of moves to draw from
James Cooper
I don’t think that literally means all the DLC from now on will be new IPs. I think it just means more like “growing the world of Smash”
Jace Edwards
I have several times but no one ever responds because they’d rather just shitpost
Joshua Wright
If he was first party, you know he would have

Star Gun could scattershot stars that then act as ground hazards for zoning, making Geno a great ranged zoner.
Geno Flash is the obvious Final smash and maybe he can do a Geno Blast as his strongest special that requires a charge like PK Flash. I don't like the idea of Geno Boost because I HATE Shulk's similar special.
Geno's side smash could be his arm cannon. He could rocket arm you. His weak attack could be an endless fingershot.
Recover special is Geno Beam that can launch him in the air if you aim the beam downward. On the ground it fires the beam and knocks Geno back slightly.
Geno Whirl can instakill if you hit the sweetspot, which is harder than landing a warlock punch so it's fine.
Jason Allen
Alternatively, if they didn’t want him to be another zoner, a lot of his long ranged attacks in SMRPG could be throwing attacks. His forward through could be just shooting them right in the face with his arm cannon, his down throw could be holding them down and shooting down at them with his elbow shots (the angle would work well visually), his back throw could maybe be similar to Mewtwo’s forward throw, just toss them backwards and shoot them with the finger shots or star shots. The up throw could be another explosive shot that sends them upward.
Not that any of this matters, the fact that Sans not only got his costume released with music but also got released along side a character he had absolutely nothing to do with just means the same thing will happen to Geno. It hurts.
