SMASH BROS THREAD

[RT-55J]

I have no idea who the final character is, but my uncle who works at Nintendo just told me all of the Mii costumes we're getting:

- Jockington from Deltarune (feat. Rude Buster)
- Commander Keen (w/PC speaker SFX)
- Jonesy Fortnite (w/ZZT player hoodie)
- Lance Boyle (MegaRace)
- Segata Sanshiro
- Waluigi

Instead of guessing which are most likely, here are five characters I would just love to see added:

1) Artorias of the Abyss. The stage should probably be in the Abyss, but Anor Londo would be fun (with Ornstein and Smough showing up mid-match to cause chaos). Sif has to be part of his Final Smash.
2) Sami from Advance Wars. I remember thinking of Fire Emblem as the lesser series to Advance Wars in the GBA days, and it's wild to see how differently they ended up. Still, AW is a great series and it doesn't even have an assist trophy in the game anymore.
3) Jill Valentine. Resident Evil is just too big of a series not to be in the game. The stage should be the foyer of the RE1 mansion.
4) Vyse. Skies of Arcadia is such a positive, fun game. It's too bad that we already have a stage with a flying ship in the clouds, but there are plenty of great locations in the series.
5) The Prince of all Cosmos. I have no idea how they would make a character out of him. The stage could be literally anywhere. I want that music in Smash though.

Vyse would be an amazing pick, and it would make for massive buttmad for yet another anime sword

Based on Sakurai's tweets today, it may be something more niche than what some people were expecting/hoping.

 

[WildcatJF]

Gimme nicheeee

Friedrich Nietzsche confirmed for Smash

Friedrich Nietzsche confirmed for Smash

With other notable philosophers as alts. Socrates only, Final Destination, no items, only essays

It's Goku

Nah it's probably something dumb and cowardly like Sora or fuckin'...I don't know, a Pokemon or something.

But it's Goku, it should be Goku. It'll be Goku

It's Goku

Write 'n' Fight on Steam

The greatest writers of all time are fighting each other in the arenas that were inspired by their work. Each character can summon his own "magic" arena where he becomes the boss of the level for a short amount of time.

Begging and Pleading for NOT SORA.

FUCK DISNEY

I lack the language to describe how hot my hatred burns for the Walt Disney Company.

 

[Seven]

The closest I got was predicting Pyra & Mythra; my original guess was Rex with Pyra & Mythra as his specials, but it's close enough that I'm counting it as a successful prediction. Anyway for my final guess I'm going with the Nahobino from SMTV and we'll finally have some great SMT music in Smash.

 

[Phantoon]

But is it a nose?

Oh you

Also, Air Tiki for Smash

 

[SpoonyBard]

Rather than speculate on specific characters (of which there is an abundance) right now I'm mostly wondering if the final Smash character will be first party or a third party?

 

[Patrick]

I'm guessing 3rd party. The first fighter pass had four 3rd party characters, so I'm expecting as many from the second fighter pass. Plus, Sakurai said that some people might not recognize the character.

 

[pudik]

i've heard from a good source that it's shinji. alt outfits for rei, asuka, and kowaru. final smash is third impact

You Can (Not) Smash

 

[ThornGhost]

Hear me out here: a Tetris block. Echo fighters are the different shaped Tetris blocks. You can rotate the block using your smash to adjust your hitbox.

EDIT: SpoonyBard suggested this back in June. Great idea, SpoonyBard. Great idea.

 

[Bongo]

For a reminder, here's the official record of our collective predictions.

 

[RT-55J]

I gotta say, our collective track record has been quite bad so far. It's probably gonna be someone that only got like one or zero guesses.

Will you be able to put different hats on the different blocks? And will the alternate costume be the Tengen versions?

 

[Violentvixen]

I'd still really like Dragaux from RingFit.

 

[Fyonn]

I think it's going to be EMMI from Metroid Dread.

 

[Ixo]

Since Cooking Mama is having legal issues, we’ll go with my backup idea of a sentient deck of hanafuda cards.

Also a big fan of @Patrick suggesting the HAL Dreamhatcher dog.

 

[That Old Chestnut]

a game boy

 

[Jeanie]

Lara Croft raids the Battlefield!!

 

[Patrick]

I think it's going to be EMMI from Metroid Dread.

If it’s a Metroid Dread character, I expect it to be the evil Chozo.

Also a big fan of @Patrick suggesting the HAL Dreamhatcher dog.

Yeah, love that dog.

 

[Rascally Badger]

I hope its Mario's kart

 

[Patrick]

It’s a mariokart with an extremely pixelated Toad driving it. Like, you can barely tell who it is.
