Okay, but that's not what I meant. LOL
I'm talking about a multiplayer/co-op game in style of NSMB/3D World
Exactly! I've been waiting for this moment, and have been curious how they'll approach story wise as well.

You know, I never really understood why Nintendo decided to make changing characters in 64 DS infinitely more annoying and time-consuming between E3 2004 and it's release in November that year.
(the demo had character icons you could tap on the touch screen to instantly swap).

Probably because that shortcut was only ever meant for the E3 demo.
They should've realised that it was better than what they actually had set for the finished product.
Luckily for me Haruka is immune to this since she already has an "official" grotesque form - Home Haruka:I guess 4chan is turning Lloyd into the new Grotesque Steve. Seen a bunch of crap with this model.
Some off looking promotional items were released for Playstation Home and magic was made.
Thank you.
I hope the Haruka Mii Costume accurately recreates this mask.
Or they just include the mask alongside her, I dunno.
It would be a great way to reflect that the Miis aren't substitute but rather just characters playing dress up and avoids the problem of Mii faces never quite capturing the right look for the face.
But considering it's a PlayStation Home reference, I'm not getting my hopes up.
Eh, we've had PlayStation-exclusive content in Smash since Brawl, it'll be fine.
Though, Gekko here is actually a Roy in Melee situation; Brawl released before MGS4, thus making Brawl the Gekko's first appearance (and the Wii it's system of origin instead of the PS3).
It's not like we have anything better to discuss.
This is now at the top of most laughably dumb 4chan leaks
I actually think it is one of the most safe stuff from 4chan in a long time ... not that this is a high bar xD

It doesn't work very well this time. It felt so forced to take over Steve's jobs
Lloyd is a well designed character
Ugly Steve only works because Steve is placeholder programmer art that managed to become famous and iconic

I know it's your opinion but did you try the best games in franchise yet?
I beat ToS, but it was a long time ago. Lloyd was just of there I thought. Maybe he didn't strike me as particularly memorable because Vyse was the only dual sword wielding JRPG protag for me. That being said, seeing how long it's been, maybe I've forgotten what Lloyd could do in ToS, but ad a fighter does he actually bring anything new? All I can remember that he could do was wild two swords, shoot blade waves along the ground, and say Double Demon Fang a lot.
I don't remember ToS much, but a lot of Tales games have a lot of skills in the form of Artes which could be carried over into Smash but we could use any Tales protag realistically.
While I generally agree, it remains one of the only rpg series that offer 4-player local co-op.
Also Tales of Graces F is masterful from a systems and mechanics standpoint (not so much for its story).
Which ones are those?
I played and beat Synphonia, Abyss, and Vesperia and fully agree with the junk food statement.

Tales franchise being Painfully Boring is what I disagree with but I don't disagree with junk food statement tho.
Atelier and Star Ocean and the other C-tier franchises are JRPG junk food. Tales of has higher production value and much more engaging game play. Tales of is at least like street food level, it's on par with other B-tier stuff.
Tales has pretty great gameplay but utterly forgettable story and characters. And I'm usually all about stock shonen plots.
tales games are best enjoyed if you just turn your brain off and embrace the cheesy animeness of it all
God I didn't expect this much discussion for dissing Tales games.
For the record I played though Symphonia 4-5 times on Gamecube with my friends because we loved the gameplay, but the story really is just stock anime and JRPG tropes and little else. Nothing I've seen from the later ones except Vesperia and some story spoilers for Abyss seemed like they would change my mind.

Tales of games are Stock RPG Tropes: The Game. It's been that way ever since Tales of Phantasia on the Super Famicom.
The thing about Symphonia for me is that, for a significant chunk of it, the plot is just Final Fantasy X. Like just straight up a near 1:1 copy, complete with an evil religion, hot-blooded shonen hero, soft-spoken chosen one on a pilgrimage, badass aloof mentor, big sister figure, and spunky ninja/thief.
I like Tales of Symphonia because you can romance Sheena (well, you can make her fall in love with Lloyd, while Lloyd is just a dumbass who doesn't get it. But the dialogues are cute)
The other Tales of I've played didn't have any romance options so I didn't like them as much.

Yes, but Llyod can also romance Presea and there's no situation where that is okay
I'm in the middle of wrapping up a review before work, but there's no way I can skip this Tales of Symphonia discussion, so I'll say this much: after being stoked to experience the rest of the series following Symphonia and Abyss back in the late-aughts, Vesperia being the only one even remotely approaching the same magic was rather deflating. I say this despite still having not played Phantasia. but while Arise looks promising, this past decade was not kind to the series at all.
Putting it this way: I don't think anything will ever inspire a dozen-plus playthroughs in the vein of Symphonia. God, I love that game, dated warts and all.
This is easily my most-wanted 3H song in Smash -- so good!

My most-played Switch games were Smash, DQXIS, Splatoon 2, Daemon X Machina, and NES games
What does that mean for Smash

I just got an email with mine.
I've only played 100 something hours this year. 93 of those in January. Only two titles- Smash and Hollow Knight.
At least I play Smash so I can say I belong here.
As much as I love Yuri from Vesperia, I seriously struggle to imagine how to make him an interesting character gameplay-wise.
You could make him a combo-heavy character but it's still not super interesting. His gimmicks involve being able to cancel anything into anything, and not taking any knockback whatsoever, which don't translate very well to Smash 😅
I wouldn't say no to him though. Yuri for Smash!
