She's from an obscure game, but if Terry Bogard can get it, then anyone can get in. And Sakurai is known to like trolling.

Guys, look at me.
Can you tell me that you wouldn't want Raiden in the game? At least after the pass? He's from MGS, he's a big meme, his spin-off is the biggest meme, his music is THE best and he looks and fights cool.
What more could you want?
Aiden Cooper
why Patrick gets an echo fighter but Spongebob doesn't?
Jaxon Hughes
It's obscure unless you're a boomer. KoF hasn't been relevant since late 90s.
And Vanessa's game came out after that.
Nicholas Fisher
Most likely DLC characters:
>Hayabusa
>Dante
>Crash
>Doomguy
>Reimu
Elijah Baker

Joseph Evans
Then he'd just be an echo.
Though, at least we might get some music.

Brandon Cook
Just like Terry. And Terry got in.
Tyler Williams
Terry is notable enough for Yea Forums to think he was Latino pandering and 5ch to think he's Chinese pandering
Jayden Thomas
Geno is my prediction.
A Megalovania remix got claimed by Ninty just like Forest Mushrooms and Boss Battles (unremixed). That's two songs. Just like Cloud and the 4 different DQ characters. He's coming as either a mii costume or playable character.
The big problem that i have with it is it's GENO. A side character from a game that's already repped by Mario and Co. I don't think he's part of the pass. I think it'd be pretty awkward for him to end the pass. So instead i think he's gonna be either a bonus character or a standalone character after the pass. If hes a costume then he'd come with two songs which is also possible but given that were getting never evers this time around I'd put money on him being fully playable.
Ryan Thomas
Not the Shante fag, but Ridley, K.Rool, Banjo got in because of the Smash pols from the days of 4.
Alexander Gray
sorry granny, only cuties are allowed in smash

No source, just made up rules.
Come on, Nintendo already showed us that indies ARE allowed in Smash, first the Shovel Knight trophy, then the Sans costume. Now, the next logical step would be to add a playable indie character and who better to occupy a DLC spot than Shantae?
Hunter Williams
That doesn't count as a game, it's a program. Btw, I know you're just baiting but I enjoy your bait, it's fun talking to you.
Christian Young
>shantae as a character before shovel knight
heh keep dreaming
Juan Morris
Banjo was playable before Bomberman, anything is possible
Landon Moore
Nintendo also proved that relevancy means shit
e.g. Banjo, Joker, Terry.
Josiah Watson
I'm being serious here. Vocaloid is a program where you use a set of pre-programmed tools within an audiovisual interface so you end up making songs for your entertainment. It is a video game.
Eli Garcia
Shovel Knight, Quote and Sans are way more popular than Shantae. Coombrains are just more vocal online

The last fighter pass character is either going to be a highly requested character like Shantae or Sora, or it’s going to be some out of left field holy shit character like Master Chief. It’s not going to be anyone like Ryu Hayabusa, who is neither highly requested nor surprising, because that would be a lame way to end the fighter pass.
Jordan Powell
post yfw hes fucking in
Connor Kelly
Absolutely based
Nathaniel Smith
The inclusion of bayo was decided before the ballot even started
Sebastian Jenkins
it will have to be something completely off the wall like piranha plant. my best guess would be a pokemon to tie in to sword and shield, but other than that I have no idea. I remember thinking it couldn't get any crazier after they announced duck hunt for smash 4, so its been a pretty interesting past couple of years to put it lightly.
Landon Foster
Guys please stop falling for Shantyfag. He uses the same bait every time but you people keep fucking biting it.

please god let it happen, itd be the icing on the "my most wanted got in" cake.
Robert Sanders
The ballot was for the next game (Ultimate), and since Shantae was one of the top most voted characters, it's a given that she;s going to be in.
Luis Reed
I'd rather have pic related be the indie rep to see half of Yea Forums go nuclear, but she'd work as a Mii Swordfighter costume.

Jack King
I've been doing that to otisfag for months so maybe it could work.
Tyler Fisher
I think the biggest thing Shantae has working against her is that, by allowing the greatest video game character of all time to be in their game, Nintendo would be running the risk of making all of their other characters look like shit in comparison. Who’s going to be excited for the next Mario or Zelda game when they’ve seen Mario and Link standing next to Shantae and realized how lackluster they are?
Justin Richardson
That proves polls mean shit as well

The fact that:

>Sans became a Mii Costume
proves that polls have some merit in showing who the popular picks are.

They're bog standard boring games that don't do anything to stand out.
If the protag wasn't a cute genie oozing sex appeal, they wouldnt be anywhere near as popular. You know it, I know it, we all know it.
Ayden Powell
>Shantae was one of the top most voted characters
There is genuinely no way to verify this. You can take and make as many fan polls as you want, but the results of the Ballot are still in Nintendo's hands, away from the public, outside of a few mentions of it here and there.
Christopher Gomez
>Terry and Joker
Neither were highly requested characters, not saying they don't "deserve" it or they're bad choices. But Joker was extremely surprising and no one would've predicted Terry if it wasn't for the SNK leak.
David Cooper
I think if there is a god, the last character will definitely be Shantae, because why wouldn’t Shantae put herself in the game?

Objectively, we still haven't seen any character break the "spirits deconfirm" rule. The forum crowd was also saying that we were only getting one fighter's pass, but still. It's a hill to climb.
Adrian Howard
Who else wants him?
Zachary Torres
Present.
Jose Russell
All these threads do is display how many good IPs Capcom has.
Adam Gomez
They’ll probably save Shantae until after the fighter pass and release her as the very last character, since no one will buy anymore DLC characters after she’s released because there will be no reason to ever play as anyone else once she’s in the game.
Liam Davis
Would you want him to work in a fashion similar to his MvC3 appearance with different "modes", or something completely different?
Robert Price
Shantae will not be a character, she already a spirit and she even has his own WoL level.
Chase Jackson
He won't be #5 in the Pass and he's got a tough battle to beat out Dante and Resident Evil. Still, he always did just as well on the polls as Daisy and probably better than Terry.
Dominic Bailey
You can't stop the inevitable.
Isaiah Wilson
>as well as daisy
yeah no, phoenix barely shows on polls and he probably didn't reach the top on the ballot.
Being more popular than terry means jack shit if phoenix isn't as iconic as him.
Adrian Nguyen
pheonix wright or 1 of the like 70 doomfags would be nice
Anthony Robinson
I agree Shantae won’t be a character. She’ll be THE character. Once she’s in the game, you’ll never want to play as anyone else again.
Jacob James
>he always did just as well on the polls as Daisy and probably better than Terry.
There's no doubt that he did better than Terry. I'd bet a hundred dollaridoos that he was the most requested Capcom character on the ballot, too.
Cameron James
Grunty's Final Smash should be she draining the youth from female fighters to become Sexy Grunty. It would be hilarious to see Palutena transform into Fake Palutena as a result.
As for male fighters Grunty nukes them with the HAG Tank. See Grunty can be like Ken in having two final Smashes.

Easton Scott
If someone made a game to compete with Smash where the only two characters were Shantae and Reimu, it would be the end of Smash and Nintendo would probably go out of business. If Nintendo is smart, they’ll put both of them in Smash before that happens.
Ryder Bell
Personally I just want Sora, if I get him then this'll pretty much be an ideal roster for me. Maybe Frisk too

Nintendo's been pretty supportive of Indies as of the last few years, so I expect an indie character to be a fighter, to me the question isn't whether or not she's in, it's what indie character stands in her way with Shovel Knight and Sans out of the way.
Jeremiah Brooks
You're satisfied with too little. I want to see Nintendo worlds in actual Kingdom Hearts games. That would rock!
But if Sora got in Smash one request is, his Ending Picture it needs to be Sora hanging out with Duck Hunt and Pikachu in the setting of Peach's Castle at night with fireworks for the obvious Disney parallels.
Duck Hunt - Donald and Goofy.
Pikachu - Mickey.
Peach's Castle - Disney's Magic Kingdom
You got that?
Austin Wright
There's already one Ruy in the game. I think Sora will be the next one.
Angel Diaz
get out Steve
Luis Morris
What would make it an ideal roster for me is if they have Sora and use his Vampire Transformation as a skin. It will be closest I'll get to Alucard fighting Simon Belmont.

It's always the jesters. Why do people love these guys? Marx gets demand, then you got Dimentio from Paper Mario to show up in Smash, and then you get other examples like the masked jester from Bomberman 64 who some people want as an Assist Trophy.
Is it because the movie IT has been successful? Both IT remake 1 and recently the sequel has been very successful. Is that why people love jesters and clowns so much?
Nicholas Stewart
I’d just design him as if he didn’t appear in MvC3. He’d have an evidence gathering mechanic that powers him up but there wouldn’t be separate modes
Jack Morales
none of these shits are getting in but I just hope
Owen Brown
Alexander Murphy
Why would you want to let those Jew rats have their way whit smash?
I will not question why you want him or why you want him, I am going to ask if you are aware on how Disney behave when it comes to IP sharing and what they did to MvsC
Parker Reyes
Marx is way too damn good to just be left as a boss. Sakurai always does this. He should make bosses out of characters no one likes.
Eli Rogers
Smash Marx and Star Allies Marx are different enough. You cannot debate my autism.
Christian Moore
>Why would you want to let those Jew rats have their way whit smash?
I like Kingdom Hearts, thus the reason I want Sora in Smash
Austin Roberts
Well they could do a temporary deal where Sora gets in at first and after some time passes Sora's slot changes to Neku. It's perfect. Sora and Neku are friends and The World Ends With You is becoming important in Kingdom Hearts' sequel.
Carter Morgan
Which polls are you looking at, I've seen him on a number of fan polls and while that may not mean much, it is something
Xavier Martin
No, you should absolutely ask why you'd want him. If you get Disney to agree to any character, you'd want SORA? Out of ALL of the shit they have? C'mon.
William Ortiz
Carter White
>I am going to ask if you are aware on how Disney behave when it comes to IP sharing
Also you know that Kingdom Hearts as an IP exists because Disney shares their IPs with Square, right?

Waluigi.
Hear me out, I don't actually like Waluigi. Right now, we believe Spirits and Assist Trophies hard deconfirm. Which means a lot of great characters aren't even being considered. If Waluigi gets in, those ideas are debunked and we can believe any video game character can get in as DLC. Waluigi would be the least hype thing about his own reveal, which would be the most Waluigi thing about it.
Noah Rivera
You really underestimate the guys who screwed over every single digital shop over MvsC having charades they don’t approve of
It’s a literal deal whit the devil! and you and all the Sorafags are asking what could go wrong
It’s a literal deal whit the devil! and you and all the Sorafags are asking what could go wrong

Bentley Perez

Austin Robinson
Jackson Diaz
Not that guy but Shantae's changes hinge on when Nintendo decided on the characters after the first Fighter's Pass. If they decided on them alongside the others, then I think Shantae is very unlikely. If the second round was decided only recently, it could happen.
Now I do honestly believe that it won't happen. I just think that the spirit is a very clear sign and it kinda ruins the surprise if Shantae was gonna join. But it IS possible, I'd say.
Brody Jones
It doesnt need to be, just wait it’s fucking obvious
Hudson Lopez
Spirits don't deconfirm characters. Stop with this dumb argument.
Juan Rodriguez
Not that guy but trophies didn't deconfirm shit so why would that suddenly change with spirits?
Shantae definitely won't be in though.
Jayden Ward
Mewtwo and Lucas were trophies in smash 4 and they got into the game as fighters.
Bentley Reyes
Then tell me, why spirits don’t deconfirm?
Then why they didn’t put K rool Ridley and other character that had a trophy? Those two pieces of shit of mewtwo and Lucas were the exception because their fanboys cried enough and sakurai gave them their fucking toys, and you need to understand that TROPHYS AND SPIRITS AREN’T THE SAME THING

Chances are Sakurai and Nintendo planned all the DLC in advanced even if they weren't sure DLC would continue
We know Nintendo offered Sakurai more than 5 characters seeing how it was possible for him to reject some, so its likely he selected more than 5 characters back then for an entire DLC run
Spirits deconfirm
Deal with it

Also cause it will break Stevefags.
Aiden Powell
Sonic. I fucking hate Sonic.
Jaxson Roberts
A JPEG that grants you stat buffs isn't something that'd have to dramatically change for gameplay. Most characters that people want that got spirit'd have more then one piece of artwork that could get turned into the Fighter Spirit JPEG, not to mention all of the playable characters that appear as Spirit JPEGs too.
Geno is one of the few characters that actually could present a problem for finding an alternate image for the Fighter Spirit, but even then, he could just have the Smash render as the Fighter Spirit just like Cloud or the Awakening characters.

here's my most wanted
my personal preference is toward characters who would simply fit the "video game hero" theme, whimsical to a degree, yet cool

well i dunno
they'd definitely have a lot in common with inklings but they could use different weapons and such
they could be echoes or ness/lucas-style pseudoclones
but at any rate they'd definitely be at least a derivative from inklings
for me, waluigi has nothing interesting to offer, and the more vocal of his supporters have driven me from wanting him

No, that was the original title, in reference to Saber being at the top for Japan in the fake poll results.

It's possible that may have been referring to the legal mess between the old Nintendo-Rare partnership and the new Microsoft-Rare partnership.

Dec 12, so in 3 months, Terry could come out and #5 gets confirmed, leaving about 2 months for it to release and finish the DLC schedule they set out.
It could be sooner, like a holiday direct, but following Joker at the previous VGA would be a better move unless they have much larger announcements to make.
Nolan Johnson
>>Sakurai said straight up that even after negotiating fucking Cloud Strife from Square that getting temp ownership of Banjo from Microsoft was by far the hardest he had to work to get a 3rd party in Smash

>Master Chief FINISHES THE FIGHT
Asher Ortiz
Geno's not a fan favorite, though. Most Smashers these days are probably younger than his single game appearance (and not even as a protagonist, at that). He has an extremely vocal cult-like following online, but every single DLC character so far comes with an attached fanbase which dwarves his, because they're iconic characters from popular series.
Xavier Peterson
>must be third-party
Not necessarily, just third-party feels more likely, due to there being a general lack of first party characters that aren't spirited, assist trophied, or mii costumed.
>must be from a franchise currently unrepresented
This is based off of something Reggie said that could either be interpreted as "it's all newcomers because everyone is here" or "it's all series that haven't been in smash"
>must be male unless it's a female that comes 'attached' to a male like Kazooie to Banjo
This one is just wrong, can't even be implied, it's more a coincedence that all the DLC has been male so far.
Anthony Russell
It's a better model for Nintendo to be able to encourage people to lock in the purchase up front.

Based on books. Clearly the Soulcalibur team is fine with making deals outside of their medium, same with Harada and Negan in Tekken. But Sakurai made it clear he's sticking to his guns.
That's a shame. There's some other vidya that no one realizes are adapted, but at least it can give the originals exposure.

These are actual arguments against his inclusion that I've heard on this board. I actually wonder if the voice line guy is clinically, mentally, and autistically retarded.
What the fuck is everyone problem with Crono being in to the point where they have to use non arguments and often times just make shit up?
Owen Gutierrez
Thing is that as of now all of those things have been the case each time, so until proven otherwise there's no reason not to see a trend.
Being 3rd-party is definitely far more likely, as 1st-party wouldn't bring as much with it unless it's an unrepped franchise. It also crosses over with the second point, as pretty much every 1st-party franchise is represented in some way. It'd have to be a new IP like Astral Chain.
And as for the last point, there aren't many prominent female leads that would be considered in any way comparable in either being iconic, fan-favorites or possibly a Sakurai-favorite when compared to an equivalent male. Also Ultimate seems geared towards pandering to the husbando crowd, given stuff like Richter and Terry.
Jason Gomez
It's another character drawn by Akira Toriyama.
even if he was in smash, everyone would just say
>super saiyan god goku i'm so original
Ethan Young
Better to create secondaries by games than by porn or IOSYS. And if you ever thing pic related is bad then i don't get you since it won't affect ZUN, the japan fandom, the games and such in any way and if you're really worried over pic-related then you care more about the fandom than the games which is retarded since the western fandom is shit to begin with.
Josiah Sanchez
It's one of the better arguments, sure. Also the fact that it's another Squeenix rep. But even before Hero was announced, everyone just shat on him for no reason.
Kayden Walker
>Not wanting more people to experience ZUN's work
Ryan Perry
Hakurei Shrine as a stage with a bunch of random cameos as stage hazards and Love-Colored Master Spark, The Ground's Color is Yellow, Pure Furies, Maiden's Capriccio, Flowering Night, etc. for stage themes would be a blast.

And now here we stand with Sans in the game and Reimu actually looking remotely possible. What a time to be alive.
Touhou has a pretty dreadful fanbase. People who are focused on actually playing the games are normally fine, but the surrounding waifushit/pedoshit/stale memes/etc is pretty rough. This also seems to include a bizarre sense of elitism. With that said, I doubt most primaries would care.
I want to believe in Edelgard, but there's no way they'll pick a side on FE3H representation, even if she is the most popular. It'll be Byleth or bust, sadly. 2B could be neat.

I actually would be shocked if we didn't get Byleth. First-party character with very strong moveset potential? Seems like a shoo-in. I also think people are overlooking Octoling in a major way. Splatoon is one of Nintendo's biggest franchises nowadays despite debuting within the past five years. It absolutely warrants more than one rep, and Octoling could easily be made completely distinct from Inkling simply by virtue of outfitting them with a different set of weapons (i.e. Splatling, Charger, Brella, dualies, maybe Booyah Bomb final smash).
Adrian Long
We're gonna make it brother. Believe. All we can do is believe.

Same actually. After Banjo's inclusion, he was all I ever wanted until the additional DLC fighters was announced. Now I'm back on the ride.
Jackson Clark
Yeah alright, you have fun raising Kiryu's girlfriend's boyfriend's daughter's son while Yagami makes it into Smash.
Justin Baker
How the heck there's still people who believes that Shantae can be in when is litteraly already in the game as an spirit?
How hard is to understand all the bullshit the devs would have to do to if they remove an equippable spirit from the game just to bring it later as a fighter spirit, without mentioning that they would have to delete her spot in WoL and also that will have to take way something that they even had the effort to make with spirit battle, stats and all that? Fuck, they decided to add her as an spirit for a reason, because they don't have any plans to add her as a DLC.
(And this goes the same to any character that is represented as spirit/assist too)
Wyatt Rivera
>There's is literally no way that another 1st-party rep gets in whose name isn't Geno.
We've had one first-party DLC so far, and had multiple for Smash 4. I wouldn't be so bold in these assertions. Byleth or Octoling would also be far more exciting for the broader playerbase than Geno.
Eli Evans

Michael Jenkins
Plant, but he's outside the pass so I'm not sure if what the other user is saying counts
Charles Brown
Even if could be a choice or not, Shantae's spirit in Ultimate is not like a variation of the character, like for example "Mario (Mario Tennis Aces)" from just "Mario", or "Donkey Kong & Lady" from the figher spirit that just says "Donkey Kong".
In the game the spirit just says "Shantae", in other words the main Shantae representation, the one that defenitively would have to be the figher spirit if she were added.
Or what, do you expect "Classic Shantae" to be the DLC instead?
Camden Ross
man user you're right, it's not like they could edit the text for her currently available spirit.
Cameron Johnson
they could literally update the spirit so it says "half genie hero" and go with her seven sirens design. even then, sakurai usually chooses the classic designs for characters when they get added, so i wouldn't even be too surprised if they chose her original design
Blake Harris
Delusion. They want their pick so bad they're willing to ignore the obvious. Mr Samurai made it pretty clear he wants to add "New worlds" (franchises) through DLC, Shantae's is already represented. That said nothing is out of the cards. NIntendo is fucking nuts and could announce that all the other DLC fighters are all Mario enemies.
Connor Gutierrez
Oh right, I always forget about him.
Noah Kelly
Realistically we're probably getting Doom Slayer and Ryu Hayabusa. Though for the other slots I have no fuckin idea. Probably Crash and Dante.
Andrew Price
>remove an equippable spirit from the game
Why would they need to do that? She already has a new aesthetic for Shantae 5, anyway.
>they would have to delete her spot in WoL
Why would they need do that? It's not like DLC chars got their own spot in WoL. They get auto-unlocked, last I checked.
>the effort to make with spirit battle
>effort
You make it sound like they had to manually code every single fight from the ground up and it's not some drag and drop shit
Stop splitting hairs about WoL scenarios deconfirming when there's better evidence out there she won't make the cut.
Xavier Bennett
>Fuck, they decided to add her as an spirit for a reason
Just like that? No they didn't.
Asher Sullivan
I don't get the appeal for Ammy, especially over Nick. She had one game that was very pretty but generally eh and a sequel no one remembers while Ace Attorney is long running. I'll admit she was fun in TvC, but Nick is perfectly viable too.
Tyler Peterson
I just want Shantae and Shovel Knight Mii outfits
Cooper Phillips
Funny enough, I was reading some of the early drafts for Shantae and apparently her powers revolved around summoning instead of transforming. Her prototype abilities would have worked a lot better as a Smash fighter than what we currently have.
Austin Edwards
He's DLC, so it counts as far as I'm concerned.
James Thompson
Also worth noting as more and more characters get added people think more and more that their favorite franchise not being in Smash is somehow an insult etc.
It's why the DLC reactions have gotten progressively saltier as time has gone on.
Liam Wilson
Wars not being in Smash despite being a nearly 30-year-old first-party franchise is an insult, though.
Josiah Edwards
Its more fitting for Sakurai and Nintendo to go through characters that aren't spirits and were suggested by Nintendo and didn't get in the first pass then use characters who are already spirits or ATs
There are still plenty
>Chosen Undead
>Leon/Jill
>Crash
>Porky
>Ryu Hayabusa
>Doomguy
>Reimu
>Ezio
And this is one per company
Ryder Mitchell
Sure, they could, but still feels like an stretch to have plans for her, seems that they pretty much showed that don't have more plans with Shantae or her series in Smash if they will just go with "Shantae" as her title. The possibility exists, but is incredibly small imo.
I can feel the same, they just don't want to let it go refusing to accept that she's in already.
And as I said, the posibility exists and anyone that Sakurai wants could be the next one, but I would not bet on Shantae with the deconfirmation reasons weighting more and by far.

dude stop. AT models are so far removed from the fighter ones in quality its ridiculous. They lack the detail, bones, animations, nearly everything. Even the ones they do have would have to be updated due to looking incredibly stilted, like the airdodges.
Case in point, the guy who made the PM Waluigi model and moveset said he basically started from scratch because the AT one was nigh unworkable as a decent fighter base. The most popular Isaac one WAS built off the AT model, but its incredibly obvious because he shares a lot of animations with Ike and the model breaks constantly
Xavier Kelly
And even if wasn't that much work, it just doesn't make sense to not make him a paid character considering how popular he is.
Jose Robinson
Trying to guess the next DLC is useless. We only know it has to be a video game character and that it needs to be relevant for Sakurai, not the players. He already confirmed he can deny Nintendo suggestions.
Except for Hayabusa. He's in.
Noah Ross
yeah but those are guys making mods by themselves, we're talking about a professional team here
Carson Miller
Julian Ramirez
lets be real, if ryu wasn't even leaked then none of you would fucking care about him getting in
Grayson Garcia
pretty based
Gabriel Wood
Oliver Hill
>Hakurei Shrine as a stage with a bunch of random cameos as stage hazards
This would make me so happy.
Robert Long
A character like Birdo would be quite, the gag! If it should happen, I can't wait to see the face of roster fags!
Man but I do admit, if Geno/or Shantae Got in, it'd be fun seeing Yea Forums and rulefags throwing a fit!
Jeremiah Russell
Joker got in because of Sakurai.
Adrian Richardson
Not me, champs, I wished for him the moment the Belmonts were announced. The NES Ninja Gaiden games were like Castlevania in turbo mode.
Ryan Jenkins
you're just lying you loser
Oliver Johnson
Shantae trumps Shovel Knight in terms of Smash requests and is more popular in Japan than him.
Xavier Ross
Even then they'd also have to make a much more detailed model for the character render, design a moveset around him, animate it all, etc. The model's honestly one of the easier parts of creating a character.
Matthew Stewart
>all this Tales talk
What if it’s Velvet
Connor Miller
Why lie on the internet fag?
Nicholas Ramirez
Sakurai literally just said the second set is based on Nintendo as well.
Wyatt Price
The AoCF poster leak said the stage is Seirensen
It doesn't make sense at first until you realize it'd be moving all around Gensokyo
Aiden Gutierrez
>he doesn't know
nintendolife.com
The only thing that could be considered a "hard thing" was the language barriers.
Joseph Moore
Given how much they hate Capcom I could see KT walking just due to their presence in the game.
Aaron Peterson
Because Nintendo chose him first
Jaxson Morris
Terry is literally the best character on this autist pandering pass
Robert Moore
Haven't heard of that fake leak, mind summarizing?
Zachary King
isn't that Shantae model used for porn though?
Carter Collins
in doesn't rhyme with fit.
Jonathan Sanders
SNK and SE have bad blood and Terry is in
Wyatt Sullivan
Based
Brayden Allen
My one beef with their designs is I actually liked Nuts and Bolts giving Kazooie the feather tufts on the head instead of a mohawk again
Christian Scott
But muh S.M.A.S.H theory!
Noah Lewis
>polls mean nothing besides the time it meant something
Christopher Jones
Except no, it was specifally said by the director a guy at Atlus that Sakurai extended the invitation because he was a fan of Persona.
Brandon Phillips
Hayabusa fans were always present in Smash threads on Yea Forums, a minority, sure, but a genuinous one. Don't comparre fans really wanting him to those who just jump to the leaker's of the week bandwagon.
Nathan Diaz
>youtu.be
Probably never happening desu but I can dream.

>Nintendo chooses first
>Sakurai makes the selection from their choices
>And THEN they make the negotiations
Do you think Nintendo would spend all the time making those deals first if there was even a slightest chance Sakurai would say no making it a waste of time?
The exception that proves the rule
Brody White
Its Chosen Undead, Lloyd, Jin/Heihachi, or Nightmare for a Bamco rep
Those four are the most likely
Owen Sanchez
Then people need to stop saying him having an AT saves some work.
Having that model doesn't save even 10% of the work of a regular character. And if they did make him a character they may even start from scratch.
>rough model it for tweaks, proportion work, using AT model as base
>sculpt additional details
>make a new low-poly model with better animation deformation and more detail
>bake down the details from the sculpt
>completely re-make or up-res all the textures because the AT ones can't be re-used the way they are
>new shader
>make a completely new animation rig
>make full move set
>make completely new animations
>new fx
>dev new hitboxes and hurtboxes for all his moves
>balance the moveset and his raw stats
Having the AT means FUCKING NOTHING.
Logan Hall
i chuckled
Easton Howard
She's in.
Brody Myers
I never said that he got to select all the characters, just Joker. They allow Sakurai to pick a character that he in particular would want. Also
>making those deals
That's not how it works. Nintendo would obviously present him with list of potential characters first, he says whether they can work or not and they then make the deals.
Julian Foster
It is. A lot of futa porn uses it.
It's the most HD model you can get easily, but it's ugly as fuck.
Kevin Wood
>Someone on 5ch claims to work in Doujinshi and has heard about AoCF coming to the Switch and PS4 (it was already announced the day before) and something about Smash
>A week later AoCF is announced for the Switch
>Months later he says he's been hearing about Reimu in Smash mainly from music communities close to ZUN
>Thinks 70 percent of the info is BS but the stuff he heard the most were that Reimu is in, Yukari assists her as a gimmick, Youkai Buster is in, and Seirensen is the stage
>Also posted an imgur link of pic related but didn't clarify what it was (most likely proof he's part of the community)
>Deleted it and said he'll shut up to avoid getting in trouble
Personally leaning on it being an elaborate hoax
Anthony Johnson
yeah, but that was never the main purpose of it. the palutena model is used for porn too.
Joshua Gutierrez
Yes and Sakurai made the negotiations after picking Joker from Nintendo's selection
Michael Thomas
That's good to know.
John Gomez
Its proof Shantae wouldn't look or move right in 3D
Brayden Adams
>DUDE RANDOM ANIME SWORDSMAN LMAO
No. Give me one reason he should be in over somebody else.
Joseph Hall
That doesn't even seem elaborate at all.
Guessing AoCF on Switch really doesn't mean much if it was after the PS4 announcement. This is no more valid than a leak you'd find here.
Colton Bell
>fan made model
>"proof"
are you serious?
Jaxon Brown
better than no fake leaks i guess.
Parker Hall
>crash
>no spyro
come on, man
Noah Taylor
wrong
Jeremiah Lee
Again, that's now how the guy at Atlus said it happened.
Adrian Fisher
i actually think it's the best Shantae has ever looked, the problem is the people using SFM to animate her instead of Blender, which benefits with this model much more, especially the hair movement. if you got some good talent you could do wonders with this model, porn or not.
