Something makes me doubt this leak as much as the Verg one but it would end a lot more strongly than 'default skin from Minecraft' so hopefully I'm wrong.

I believed the leak because I didn't think they'd lead with Ridley and end with Starter Pokemon, but I suppose I thought too much.

I wasn't married to the Grinch leak but I figured they'd have a stronger ending for characters than this.

It feels like hyping up the DLC characters is foolish since a good amount will be third party people going by the last set, and Sakurai probably can't just pick anyone from those. The one purely Nintendo character from 4's DLC was mostly to advertise an upcoming game as well.

11, the most recent DQ game, got a lot of praise, and it's going to be getting a special edition on the Switch. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to signal boost it a bit before that.

They could make Steve look like the people from Minecraft Story Mode? That still doesn't look great but better than him just waddling all over.

I think a bigger obstacle is the 'and music' part of DLC. Are there any real bangers in the Minecraft ost of all games?

Looking up all the characters that have appeared in crossover events in Granblue, it does feel oddly plausible that someone from it would appear in this crossover.

Nintendo does have a relationship with Cygames, if that's been valuable them repaying it with a Cygames character in Smash doesn't seem too implausible.

It's canon though.

E: Are waluigi fans still actually upset? Most complaints after the direct I saw were from Golden Sun/Isaac fans.

The first official art Waluigi had was him holding a piranha plant, so a lot of people think that's Sakurai having a dig at him since he doesn't seem to much like the character.

At least he had the decency to tell them their character was deconfirmed right away, though.

Actually seeing this float around a lot too. Did people think Sakurai was going to announce every assist trophy at once at the start to avoid this? I can kind of get it with Shadow as he's seeming unchanged and was thought to have be replaced for a long time, but characters like Isaac or Black Knight that are new AT wise were being held as a surprise. (I'm counting Isaac as new as he has far more than just Move and was missing in 4)

E: I kind of wonder how many people actually like Assist Trophies on the topic of it. I love seeing them but whenever a direct comes on my friends and general reactions take it as a "who's getting sent to the graveyard to rot" segment and that seems like such a downer way of looking at em.

For well-requested characters it'd be nice just to let people down early, and as said how they did it with Shadow and Skull Kid was especially bizarre. Hell, you had to go to the website to see that Skull Kid was one.

If he is the one I wonder whether he did all that himself or paid someone else. Though you'd think any artist responsible for fooling the internet like that would have come forward by now, I doubt people will forget this any time soon.

I heard something about Sugiyama not liking his music to be in games with a sound test, which obviously Ultimate has. So if true (and since he seems to want to keep the orchestrals scores in Japan to sell records that would make sense) that could disqualify any Dragon Quest character unless a big deal has been worked out.

This deal also may have been done a couple years ago when Dragon Quest was sorta taking a nap in the West, so I sort of doubt it even if it would be cool.

Victory Position posted:

Question: how on Earth is this Kirby game getting so much DLC? is it a difficult game or is it simply filled with content?

It's basically a big anniversary game where a ton of characters from all the different eras of Kirby's games are playable, and they got released in three waves of three characters. First had people from up to the SNES era, second from the N64 and GBA, and now three from the Wii and 3DS. As far as crossovers go they basically got every supporting ally Kirby has ever had and even some villains they could justify.

From what I hear they call Ridley Captain America, since most people that wanted him are from the West.

It seems more like the reaction Little Mac got when he was revealed, which was basically "Oh that guy they like, neat", then any hate though.
