The only scene where the Joker could be described as "sad" is when he realizes the bombs aren't going to go off:
(yes I took this screencap just for an off-topic post about The Dark Knight)
Lady Bow is a Boo, and you lot know what a Boo is, right?
Looks like I missed quite a kerfuffle.
We're timeshifting tonight. Do you think jet lag could be translated into a Smash fighter gimmick?

It wouldn't exactly be jet lag, but a mechanic vaguely like that could work with a time travelling character (a few could fit into this archetype). Say, one of this character's Special Moves makes them reverse their movement as a way to represent "travelling back in time" but afterwards they get de-buffed for a few seconds (maybe they just move slower or something). It could work.

That's why I don't really want to see Tracer in Smash Bros because I (or we) know that it's going to be really annoying to deal with Tracer where she could go backward and all damages that have been done to her would be erased. Small percentage being healed could change the game hugely.
I mean, Wario and Wii Fit Trainer both have moves that heal a little bit, and their gameplay balance does not hinge on it. It'd have to be a lot more significant to make a dent.
It doesn't matter if they heal some if they die super quick. Basically make it the same way that OW balances it.
Give her so-so recovery and make her light and her healing herself won't matter too much.
Nintendo making E3 announcements already. Smash Tournament on June 8 (Saturday). Nintendo has never made E3 announcements this early.

I think people are getting a little too thirsty, but there is no way "Brave" is Banjo.

Those moves actually healed for like 1-3%; but it's not like how Tracer's Recall would works. Here is a scenario: Tracer got hit by couple characters for like 70% within few seconds; and all Tracer had to do is recall to shed off those damages as if it didn't happens so I can't really see Recall would heal for like 1-3%.
If the Nintendo/Microsoft partnership rumors are true and games like Rare Replay and Master Chief Collection are revealed at E3, then a Microsoft character will probably be revealed for Smash at the event as well. Waiting to reveal the Microsoft character at a later date would be anticlimactic. At the same time, we can surmise that "Brave" will be the second DLC character based on the placeholder data, leading me to believe that Joker and Brave will release simultaneously in April or Brave and the Microsoft character will release simultaneously in June. I'm leaning towards the latter scenario being more likely.
I'm not entirely convinced it's Erdrick. "Brave" was written in English while Piranha Plant used its Japanese name "Packu."
Basically I'm wondering if the codenames are alphabetical.
I don't think characters are going to be released at the same time. Timeline I was expecting was Joker in April with Brave/DLC 2 announced in a presentation for 3.0. E3 releases DLC 2 and reveals DLC 3 in the presentation with DLC 3 being released at Evo. DLC 4 revealed and released in a Fall Direct (around October). DLC 5 revealed at TGA 2019 and released in the same month or January.
I'm not saying "Brave" is Erdrick. But I am saying it's not Banjo. C'mon, man.
When I say this thread has a Banjo obsession problem, this is exactly what I am talking about. Look at how much this character dominates discussion around here, with no actual evidence he will even be in the game. (And I say this not totally dismissing the possibility.)

I'm more of latter but I think they would announce Brave and the release would be shadow drop or very soon; awhile they would announce third character and emphasize that it's coming eventually (like a month or two months later).
They don't need to release the Microsoft rep at the same time they are revealed. I think the Microsoft Rep will be revealed at E3 and released after EVO, while Erdrick is shadow-dropped during E3.
Brave being Banjo was just a thought I had based on the idea that the codenames are meant to correspond alphabetically. Not saying it's likely or anything but it's not something I put a lot of time into.
As for this thread's "obsession", well, we like Banjo. He's got plenty of
Rare Replay on Switch would be amazing. But I am so worried that even if it happens, they will cut out the Xbox games. The Xbox Rare games have aged better than most of the N64 games...except for like Perfect Dark and maybe the Banjo games.
You know guys...it's possible for Nintendo and Microsoft to have a partnership and yet not put a character in Smash, lol.
Ubisoft made a Mario/Rabbids crossover and had an extensive Star Fox cameo in their Starlink game, and yet you don't see Rayman or whatever playable.

E3 is where they will announce a Microsoft character for Smash. That won't happen anywhere else. Be it Banjo or MC or whoever. I expect many announcements from Microsoft and Nintendo
Whether Banjo gets into the game or not, the fact that you posted this thought in this thread should be considered a sign that you might have a problem.
It's not a necessity to happen of course, but it also would be an enormous gain for both companies, and not having any sort of MS character in Smash would be a huge waste of an opportunity.
Also there's a big difference between cooperating with a third party developer/publisher, and one of the direct competitors on the console market.
I think the person with the problem is you man.
It is weird that we totally skip over the idea of a Bamco rep when they're the developers. Are they really lacking that much in notable IPs?
Also i'm kinda glad Heartskips isn't in these threads anymore.
They would be screaming at the top of their lungs over the prospects of a Microsoft rep lol

The only ones that really crossed mind were Tales, Soul Calibur and Tekken. I'm a big stan for Chosen Undead but Dark Souls is only published by them in the West.
As far as recognizable IP goes, they really only have Tekken and maybe Tales left. There's also Dark Souls if that counts. Soulcalibur was notable 15-20 years ago, but I don't think Siegfried or Nightmare would feel like a big enough deal in Smash Bros. I also don't think we're going to see another '80s golden age arcade character like Dig Dug since Pac-Man was designed with that aesthetic in mind.
Yeah, i'm really surprised that we still haven't gotten a second Bandai Namco rep. It's not like they are lacking in reasonable choices for reps, with Tales, Dark Souls (if it counts) and Tekken (plus Soul Calibur, if they decided to go with Yoshimitsu as a rep for both). Or, you know, they could pick from the Bandai side and put in Agumon or Mametchi.
I could only imagine how SieteBlanco would have reacted to the base roster only having two female characters.
The problem is that so many of Bamco's big games are licensed games. Shonen Jump (and its associated properties), Gundam, etc. And we're not going to see any of that represented.
I'm just tired of all the Banjo talk all the time. If we could talk about it a little less, talk about other series a little more, that would be great.
