I'm a bit worried Rhythym Heaven hasn't been rumored yet. Starting to feel much less confident in its chances of getting a character.

Count me in for those who would really love a Minecraft stage and can't really get down with Steve as a character. I really do like the game a lot, but I think it's much better suited for a stage personally.

I'm a bit worried Rhythym Heaven hasn't been rumored yet. Starting to feel much less confident in its chances of getting a character.

You should do what I do and not let the lame-ass leakers get to you. I'm very confident a Rhythm Heaven character will be appearing alongside a stage.

Forgive my ignorance on this but...who is he? Is he one of the KH developers?

*types in name*

Apparently he is the Japanese game producer at Square Enix. To quote the wiki.

He currently serves as the Final Fantasy series Brand Manager, as an Executive Officer at Square Enix[1] and the Head of Square Enix's Business Division 3.[2] He is also the co-creator of the Kingdom Hearts series.

So technically speaking, you could argue that this is on par with Microsoft saying that they'd be totally ok if they were asked to let Banjo into Smash. Not really a confirmation, but would serve as a "Not out of the realm of possibility"

Vergebebeburger on Reddit
I personally heard the Minecraft content is a stage and / or assist trophy but "possibly" a character from my main Smash sources.

Outside of the main Smash sources, I have had sources of other things and contacts tell me they've heard murmurs of Steve being playable. So there is very possibly something to him actually being playable. I won't claim it myself until I hear it from my main Smash sources, but it is something I have heard from others.

Between them hearing there's "possibly" a Minecraft character and others saying they heard about Steve, there may be something to it all and the Minecraft content I heard about is more than just a stage and / or assist trophy.

Worth reading that entire thread tbh


This reddit post sums up the whole thing
Hm.

I've been doing some digging, and on /r/Kappa a new name has arisen in the leak scene, /u/Senjougahara_Hitagi. This person also leaked Samurai Spirit ahead of time, for reference.

In this post, Vergeben claims that he and his leaks are legit regarding Smash Ultimate.

In this post, this guy claims Steve is playable, along with a stage and assist.

In this comment, Vergeben says he has heard from a few sources that Steve is playable, so these very well might line up.

Take this with a grain of salt, but I think we might be getting Steve, as controversial as that may be. On the bright side for many of you, at least, this would mean Nintendo is working with Microsoft and we could get Banjo as DLC.

Please don't downvote cause Steve, I'm just relaying information.

it's also worth mentioning that they've mentioned here:
https://sourcegaming.info/2016/12/16/the-substantial-barrier-of-aaa-games-sakurai-col-514/
that they were glad smash could support other games (particularly japanese ones), and a minecraft character is the exact opposite, because it'd be repping an enormous western-made game

stage or creeper AT is still possible though
Cloud? Snake? Sonic? Ryu? They all come from huge franchises, so the focus would have to be on the western part rather than the enormous part. Even then though, Minecraft is huge in Japan.

Steve is the deal with the devil I would gladly make in order for Banjo-Kazooie to be in. And a bunch of kids are going to be very happy at this.

I guess most of my salt would come from if I didn't get a character I wanted or cared for. I guess I'll be less apprehensive if Elma got in cause at least then the newcomer roster wouldn't be total garbage even if Steve were to tip it to the garbage side alot.

Maybe the Square character could be Sora. I doubt Vergeben and co would have a Disney source and maybe the red tape around Sora and Disney's inclusion could cause them to be extra secretive.

Otherwise I'm not seeing how this would be a thing for say Geno or Dragon Quest.

It could be Sora, but Square's copyright protectiveness of their own brands is extremely known and this goes especially so for a franchise like Dragon Quest which is one of their big merchandising cows and has so many individual rights holders to be concerned about. I don't think we can say for certain that it's either.

That having been said, the fact that Sora would mean Disney involvement does send a sense of there being a higher level of sensitivity, because if something like Sora leaked, well, that would look bad not just on Square and Nintendo, that'd also look bad in front of Disney. And I don't think anyone wants to look bad in front of them.

That image was from the ballot, but I just check, and yeah. Looks like the original game is still up (although I'd imagine it's unrecognizable with updates).
Man it's been years.

I could see it being for Dragon Quest. I imagine they're pretty defensive of it.
Lmao what if the remaining newcomers are
Steve, Sora, Incenroar and Elma
Assuming any of this is legit, this is kind of where I'm leaning. Minus Sora and with a Dragon Quest rep.
