I'm excited for pretty much any character tomorrow. There's so many amazing out-of-this-world characters already that anything else is a cherry on top.

That said, I really don't want to see Geno (I do NOT understand the whole Geno thing), Minecraft Steve, and especially Crash Bandicoot.

Eugh I really hope it's not an Overwatch character, least of all Tracer. Hopefully just baseless rumour as always

There's still a couple of standout requested characters like Geno from Mario RPG, Isaac from Golden Sun, Lloyd from Tales of Symphonia, Dixie Kong and all sorts of other characters that would be exciting to see. I'm expecting a Pokemon addition personally.

More than anything I hope we finally get our first Heavy DLC character, they're so much fun to play and there could stand to be more of them

I trust Sakurai and his team to make fun characters no matter what. The only choices I would be really disappointed over would be another Pokemon or something Mario related that is not Paper Mario. I would also prefer no more guests from companies that have so many already, so no more from SEGA, Capcom or Konami... Even if I think Bomberman was hella robbed.

I'd lose my mind over Adol from Ys, Master Chief or something like Scorpion/Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat (in that case just because of how shocking of a crossover it would be).

So, last minute, what's one character they could show that would absolutely make you lose your shit (in a good way)?

Doesn't matter who the hell they are, how likely they are, or if they're even in the game. I just want to know what characters would make people absolutely lose it.

I'm gonna throw down three: Ryu Hayabusa (possible), the Knight from Hollow Knight (unlikely), and the Black Knight from Fire Emblem (no chance).
Demi-Fiend and Neku from The World Ends With You

The former is a realistic possibility and is my prediction for tomorrow. The latter is extremely unlikely, but a Mii Costume is very possible.

It's so sad Namco-Bandai stopped utilizing Go Shiina, he composed some of my favorite Idolmaster songs. But I guess he got to score Demon Slayer which is huge... so upgrade for him?

He's still around though! Did Code Vein, God Eater 3, and is still doing songs for the Tales of the Rays mobage as recent as lost month.

Definitely feel like he's going to be a composer people will want for their projects in the future though.

It's gonna be Melmetal.

It represents Pokemon Go, Let's Go, and Generation 8 simultaneously...also it's Gigantamax form is coming soon to the games and was mentioned in the Pokemon Direct the other day.

Plus he is a member of the Alolan Champion squad. Get fucked Greninja, you choker.

The only characters that will make me lose my shit and jump out of bed screaming are Geno or someone from Skies of Arcadia.

Everyone else is just gonna be "oh, cool," or "Another fucking Fire Emblem character"

Isn't tomorrow the 20th anniversary of the Xeno series? Then maybe we can expect Rex or Elma. I really want more XC series characters in Smash

A character with a good potential moveset from a beloved well-sold Mario RPG, that hasn't been in anything outside of a very minor Mario and Luigi cameo due to being 3rd party.

It's really not that difficult to understand.

I would love Golden Sun but it makes no sense to announce someone from that series when there's no new game announced.

I still think a Xenoblade character or Impa are the most likely first parties. If it's a third party I could see it being Travis Touchdown, Master Chief, a Resident Evil character, or a Square Enix rep.

You're accusing me of a lot here.

I didn't say XC2 was garbage, and I didn't use "big boobs" as a negative descriptor for women. Like I said in a different post, I don't really care if they're the best written characters in all of fiction. I would really rather Smash include more women that are not typical overly sexualized anime characters (that often times have unrealistically huge boobs).

Well, I don't know what conclusion you want me to draw when "weird big boob anime garbage" and "demeaning big boob anime garbage" are the two descriptions you used to talk about the game. It's just a bit of an annoyance. XC2 is more campy and silly than anything demeaning. I just don't think you have to word it that rudely. Like "I would like to see a variety of body types represented" sounds better, and something I would agree with. But you know what else? There aren't any other female characters in Smash that have boobs close to the size of hers, so I'm not sure what the issue with her inclusion would be.

It would be nice, but it's probably just a a coincidence.
