Spider-Man, and I will accept no substitutesSo let's say the impossible happens and Sony actually honest to goodness gets a character in the next Smash. Who would it be?
Kratos and Aloy are the two Sony characters in Fortnite, right? Unless more got added since I last saw.
Oh, Uncharted just got some on account of the movie I guess.
Just wondering because I've been playing the first Horizon for the first time and Aloy would honestly be pretty cool, I dig the game.
Only in Japan. So Sakurai would totally try to do it.
So in order to beat Cloud we need to use Metaknight. But then to beat Metaknight we'd need to use Fox. Then Fox would be bested by Kirby
He got bad matchups too. Fox and Min Min are bad for Byleth and unless Light or Proto are at a tournament he's probably not having to fight either one of them. Just so happens both were at Summit and playing well.
Yeah, a lack of high-level Fox match-up experience probably wasn't doing him any favors either.
Did you know that tomorrow, it will have been four years since the March 2018 Direct, and thus four years since Smash Ultimate was first teased?
Here's a look back at a roster I made back when it was first announced:
Basically everyone from Smash 4, plus these newcomers:
+ Wolf and Ice Climbers as returning vets. Also Link, Zelda and Samus revamped to reflect BOTW and Samus Returns, respectively. All for a total of 70 characters. In comparison, Ultimate ended up with 76 characters, counting echo fighters.
- Dixie Kong
- Ridley
- Excitebiker
- Takamaru
- New Pokemon of some kind
- Rex & Pyra
- Chorus Kids
- Inkling
- Spring Man
- Dragon Quest character of some kind (just used Slime as a placeholder FYI).
Basically I assumed we were just in for Smash 4 2.0, focusing on contemporary/relevant characters plus the oddball Sakurai surprise/retro pick like Takamaru and Excitebiker. I actually originally had Monster Hunter penciled in here, but then I saw all the rumors regarding Ridley at the time (he was a very poorly kept secret) and thus I began expecting him, so I axed MH in his favour to save space.
Interesting to see some of this come to fruition in some form: besides Inkling (already announced obv), we did get a new Pokemon in the form of Incineroar, the Ridley rumors came to fruition, and we did eventually get a Dragon Quest character, but as DLC. Likewise we also eventually got Pyra (and Mythra) but no Rex.
I feel like this is even going to happen to her if they do Mario Kart character DLC…
Well to be fair no one expects Mario Kart rosters to be interesting. The sheer fact that she actually appeared in Mario Kart Tour at all is crazy enough as it is.
I originally had plans for it, but a lot of stuff happened over the last year. And the more I thought about it, the more it made sense for a woman to do it.
