Due to there being echo fighters Ken and Shadow seem like real possibilities. The others I am a bit suspect on especially Chorus Kids of all people.

I'm satisfied, but Ubisoft deserved a rep in the form of Rayman. Other than that, holy moly.

It's not Microsoft. Nintendo ain't going to allow Smash to be shown to an audience that doesn't include the millions of Smash fans who look forward to new character reveals. The only way Banjo is announced there is if Nintendo tells people to watch XO18.
IF MS is allowing them to use Banjo Kazooie, don't you think they might have a tiny say in working with them to announce it?

I think this is definitely real... the Grinch is too subtle for this to be fake.

Also: please God tell me this means they're making another Rhythm Heaven! I need it for Switch!

If real, Banjo will be the first Smash character created by non-Japanese person. Interesting.

I'm a little disappointed because Sora would've been a much better fit for Smash than Geno, but at least fans of that character finally got their wish.

That leaves Waluigi as the only highly requested newcomer I can think of besides maybe Knuckles. Maybe for DLC...

If Sora happens, he would be DLC anyways. People would absolutely throw down cash for him.

I'd be happy if this turns out real (and it sure seems so). After the isabelle reveal and what feels like awhile without no info I wasn't expecting that many people to make it. Banjo actually making it would be fucking perfect.

All of you have been pissing in my cereal since May. Or did we suddenly forget?

Want who you want, but don't shit on my wishes when those are your suggestions. Also, nothing that I said was rude.

Smash fans will write your roster wishes off in the most condescending way and then immediately suggest something way more stupid.[/QUOTE]

Pretty rude but if you insist.

However you seem to be overlooking a very important factor in your little tirade there.

Rhythm Heaven is a Nintendo franchise. That automatically far less stupid then, oh let's be hypothetical and say someone from a series that didn't even originate from a video game.

But hey if this is true I'm a lot happier then I was the other day so you just do you.

Of course MS will have say in it too. It's hard to speculate. I'm just looking at it from the Nintendo fan who won't be watching it. Nintendo would be shunning their own fans from arguably one of the biggest reveals ever.

Banjo and Kazooie play to hearts of Nintendo fans and are hugely demanded. And to see them announced at an event that those fans won't watch feels wrong.

This is a really great group to add. Fits the aesthetic and spirit of Smash characters well, and also gives fans several that they have been dying for. And even as someone who doesn't like third party characters, as I said Banjo fits well.

A bummer it means no Skull Kid, Captain Toad, ARMS, or Paper Mario, but you can't complain with this insane roster.

Strong roster. DLC will certainly happen so there's still hope for any other character. With Banjo the calls for Master Chief will be strong, but hopefully calls for a Battletoad will be stronger. I think a Battletoad would be really good fit for smash. Also Monster Hunter still needs to happen.

I've wanted a Rhythm Heaven rep for years now so if this is real, I'd be insanely satisfied. The only character I dont care for is Mach Rider but everyone else really excites me.
