4, & they all share the same animations. You'd need to make multiple sets of animations for the ARMS characters to avoid homogenizing them. And if they couldn't even do Garou Terry, I wouldn't get your hopes up for a composite slot.

Not if they modify the existing high quality animations from an existing switch game.

Hero and Terry had to all be made from scratch

The wouldn't be the case with the ARMS people, and even then, in the source game only Ribbion girl can double jump and she has a specific animation for that.

Choosing Spring-man after teasing the possibility of it being any other fighter from ARMS would be the absolute worst thing they can do.

It'd be like "what was even the point of that?".

You mean like planning a wave of dlc with all 3rd party fighters that introduce new worlds/IPs to Smash, then ending said wave with another Fire Emblem rep? That was the "worst thing" they could do and they did it.

Twintelle for the wintelle! I really, really hope it's her.

...But I'll also accept Min Min as a suitable consolation prize.

This game absolutely NEEDS it to be Twintelle, but please let it be any of the women and not one of the boring fucking dudes on the roster.

Let's go Twintelle. It's time

I will settle for my main Ribbon Girl only cause that stage would be fire in Smash but I still think it should be Twintelle

It's a totally new character we've never seen who will be introduced in the sequel. OUT NOW!

I really really hope it's Twintelle. Min Min wouldn't be bad either.

Wildcard theory.
It's Min-min.

Their gimmick is that you select the left/right arm on the character select screen (like selecting assists in anime fighters) with each arm changing their abilities and giving them unique overall traits.

People who can master the most combinations will be a force to be reckoned with.

(the rest of the cast will appear as stage props)

Love the whole cast of Arms so wouldn't mind any fighter tbh.

Would be even better if they just made each costume a different characters like Olimar/Alph

Eeww clowns... Id take springboi over that.
Happy that it would be Twintelle but would trigger my OCD of not being the main character of the game.

The whole cast is great so I should be pretty satisfied by basically whoever it ends up being.

...But I'm lowkey hoping it's Biff. Great way to rep ARMS without showing favoritism to a particular fighter and he is something of a mascot for the game/ingame league.

The only thing with Twintelle I see not helping her case is that she doesn't actually use her arms, she uses her hair. I feel like Sakurai would wanna use a character who uses their arms in battle to rep arms lol.

Sakurai would never disrespect ARMS to the point of making the different fighters be different costumes. All of the characters in ARMS are too unique for that treatment.

Jumping and dashing around in ARMS is so fun, I was playing the other day leaping off the limos on Twintelle's stage and air-dashing sideways while throwing punches with the grenade effect and I was like "Holy shit this game is ridiculously fun"

You do realize that they never do that, right? If they wanted, they could have reused Terry's KoFXIV animations.

In the terminology of the game her hair limbs are still ARMS even if they're not arms, so it shouldn't be an issue.

It probably has been discussed to death but to me the fact that Twintelle doesn't use her arms just eliminates her right away. Unless there are multiple characters, then she might sneak in there. But if there's only one who's meant to represent the game, then she doesn't fit.
