Your logic is expression with this specific argument, but we stone cold TP Zelda for 10 years.
don't give me that, you know exactly what i mean.

zelda's design was terrible but at least it had a face, steve just has a 40p canvas

don't tell me steve would like anything close to reasonable next to the chipper new zelda and zany k. rool

Huh when the game comes out and there's no Zelda new comers, il say we have dlc to look forward to, then then add no Zelda character s for dlc

Then I'm like well atleast I can wait 4 years for the smash 6 hype cycle and get a Zelda new comer, and then the game comes out, no new Zelda characters, wait for smash 6 dlc, it ends, no new Zelda newcomers

Wait for smash 7......

Sora would be fun, kingdom hearts has a lot of movement options from what I can see

Never actually played, I watched all of some call my Johnny s reviews on them is the most interaction I have

I know aqua gets xenorted
I'd imagine Sora would be focused on Magic and have a Magic Bar like in KH2. He would also have a strong combo ability but no range also so he uses Magic to circumvent his range problem.

So say for example his dash attack is Firaga from KH2 and it envelopes around him. If he depletes his magic bar it would now just be Fire and it would cover him way less making him more vulnerable.

There's a rumor on Smashboards that's getting the whole community in a tizzy.

https://smashboards.com/threads/heres-everything.458565/

Here's the list of new stuff.



Vergeben elaborated on his Minecraft info after this rumor came to light and continues to suggest he's been told there is Minecraft content, but doesn't definitively say what it is exactly.

This is so obviously fake I can't believe anyone is taking this even remotely seriously.

Vergeben seems to be corroborating other rumors that are suggesting Minecraft would get a playable character and another leaker says that if the Square Enix character were to be leaked people would be fired.



Shinji Hashimoto also replied to a tweet from a fan that was supporting Sora in Smash and only tweeted "Yes" and then he ended up deleting that Tweet so between how under wraps the Square character is and Hashimoto deleting that tweet it could suggest the Square character being Sora.
I didn't know there was another leaker afoot!

And yeah, of course it's Sora. Super duper popular character.

This is so obviously fake I can't believe anyone is taking this even remotely seriously.
I agree. lol

Wii Remote Safety Guy would be amazing, though.

I want this banger to represent Kingdom Hearts somewhere in the music.



It's like a Mario+Luigi track on Kingdom Hearts hype juice.

While I'd be okay if he's there alongside Elma, Steve is my limit as far as third parties go. No more companies after that unless it's Falcom with Estelle. Anymore after that and it would just become a joke.

The fakest thing about this is that it says the Prima guide will be printed TWO MONTHS ahead of the release. That is not how publishing works AT ALL. It's actually laughable.

Also, why would they print it RIGHT AFTER opening pre-orders? Pre-orders exist to gauge interest.

The fuck are Black Knight and Black Shadow??
Black Knight is one of hte primary (but not THE) antagonists in Ike's 2 games (Path of Radiance & Radiant Dawn). He's a fairly popular, and even got a costume in Smash 4

Black Shadow is one of those villainous characters from F-Zero

Frankly, including Mach Rider means that leak is better than what we're actually getting. Everything else is dumb though.

I think you might be in luck:
https://sourcegaming.info/2016/12/16/the-substantial-barrier-of-aaa-games-sakurai-col-514/
Here is an interview which specifically expresses that they were glad Smash could support other games and prove Japanese games could resonate with the rest of the world.

Also, at the very least, Nintendo's in probably the best position it has been since like, 2009? A new Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and more is coming out next year, so I think they'll exert more influence in the coming years. Plus Atlus has Persona to show that turn-based RPGs can be successful now, and Nier Automata did fantastically for Square, and was actually only made because they were tired of making Dragon Quest all the time - so maybe now niche Japanese games can rise back to prominence.

We're a long way off from the dark ages of the Wii/360/PS3 era.
I know, I've read it and that's why I believe they should stick to the japanese characters. AAA western games already get way too much love and sales, Japan is simply getting left behind. Let Smash be that Nintendo and a few JP guest stars place, we don't need the same AAA characters and franchises everywhere -- I'm getting sick of how focused in just a few titles this industry is becoming while all the smaller genres and games I like are either dead or dying.

And I don't know, I feel like this talks only about console gaming. I had a DS and PSP that gen and they got LOTS of good japanese games: RPGs, rhythm games, wacky stuff, etc. I don't feel like the modern japanese hits ressonate with me nearly as much as they feel made to appeal to these AAA demographics: I don't personally care about modern Persona (SMT is cool tho), wasn't a fan of BOTW, don't care about MHW, etc. Feels like they're just giving up in japanese game design.

And Nintendo... I'll be honest. I've been feeling disappointed with the Switch. I really don't feel like it's taking up the mantle from the DS and 3DS, we get few brand new japanese games from third parties and Nintendo's output isn't that exciting to me as I've felt for future titles during the Wii/DS gen and Wii U/3DS gen. We almost don't get smaller stuff anymore.

Smash letting franchises like unique franchises like Rhythm Heaven die while pandering to the ultra pandered Ultra AAA Games is just a sign that even Nintendo may not be for me anymore and maybe it's time to accept that gaming moved on without me and I should just stop.

Sorry for rant. :(

Ike's Black Knight color is still in the game. Historically that means he's deconfirmed.

Also Scherzo di Notte is the only Kingdom Hearts song I need.

Oh, I like this one a lot.

I'm not big on Kingdom Hearts, tried the first game and couldn't get into it, but if Sora got into Smash, the music would be the biggest thing I'd look forward to.

It's another leaker in the thread
https://www.reddit.com/r/Kappa/comm...ts_new_game_by_snk_just_announced_in/e69q1et/

There is very little evidence as to who it is. DasVergeben and I have talked about it and our sources have only speculations. Unfortunately, that's all we have and we dont wanna get anyone's hopes up by throwing out speculations.

Edit: also people's jobs are on the line if people found out who the Square Enix character is.

The best thing about this leak is that I can now copy paste the ε symbol because of it. Thank you :-)

Again I wouldn't take Vergeben's post as a sign that we're getting a Minecraft character.

He said that those comments came from non-Smash sources. His Smash-specific sources said it's an AT or a Stage. He personally thinks the truth is somewhere in the middle, which is slang for "I don't feel like committing to an answer and am covering all my bases".

That's pretty much the reason for most of the characters I want in Smash. I just like their character, think they'd be fun to play, and the music they bring would be amazing.

Sora would be really weird. I doubt they'd get Sora AND the lisence yo use Disney-created characters. Sora, unable to acknowledge or show Donald and Goofy, would be really weird. Their absence would be felt.

Now a Sora that could call on Disney Summons, however...

Also, in 'never gonna happen but still' news, they could cross promote King Mickey DLC with Mickey's 90th.

The Disney characters haven't been that important to the series. They can just use Riku or other supporting characters.
