it's weird when ppl use bayonetta as a yardstick since zerosuit has been in since brawl and never been a ratings issue despite her design and fighting style being just as kinky lol

I just realized that the last two panels are incredibly funnier in hindsight.

How is her fight style kinky? Design...well, covered up completely besides the alts in 4, but those are sporty.

OH
He loved XB2 a lot, he probably made out Rex's moveset while playing the game =p
In that scenario he'd be dlc because that's less than a year of development time, for a character that's more complex than the average (unless he doesn't switch).

Would you guys be down for a daily "who's that character?" where I put up a silhouette of an obscure Nintendo character, and you all try to guess it? I get bored, so something like this could be fun for me.
Do it.

Didn't he also love xbx?

He can love both indeed. But I don't know if he loved X or not.

Yeah, a shame it wasn't multiplat. Had Ever Oasis released in 2015, I'd be asking for Tethu/Tethi as much as Wonder Red.

Dunno about that reasoning... I can see it in another way, 3DS is too saturated with games for a new IP to stand out, I think Ever Oasis on Switch would have done two to three times better.

I don't ever see this brought up, but if Monolith is really planning to continue the Xenoblade X subseries, they might suggest to Sakurai to add in Elma to rep the Xenoblade X games with Shulk as the rep for the main Xenoblade games. Of course in Smash they'd both be Xenoblade series reps.

I actually brought it up in on of the last threads. I think until that interview about continuing the X series, people really thought Monolith would try to buries the X series after XB2 success,but that doesn't really make sense

See XB2's support from Monolithsoft. Everybody loves it, and they also did an art contest.

Where is the claim that Sakurai has played and loved Xenoblade Chronicles X coming from? Like, I don't doubt that at all and I'd even assume it to be the case regardless, but I've asked for a source on that before and no one could provide one. I've specifically searched the Internet quite a bit for any mention of Xenoblade Chronicles X by Sakurai and I've never been able to find anything (all that comes up are his thoughts on Xenoblade Chronicles 2). I'd love to read what Sakurai has said about the game, if anything, so please, if anyone has a source on that please share it here!

But that doesn't mean they suddenly started to hate XBX and that they want to forget they ever developed this game like I saw some people think. Especially when they are starting to reference the game even in XB2

Pretty sure he never talked about it, they are probably confusing this with the XB2 talks

The fakest part of that picture is K. Rool. He's just too big to get into Smash. Sure, they could base him off his smaller sprite from the first Donkey Kong Land, but nobody wants that.

Another weird quirk I've been hearing from people recently is people saying Sakurai is a huge Xenoblade Chronicles fan. Which has been true recently when he did an entire article praising it earlier this year but I'm not sure how relevant for alot of Smash Ultimate's development.

Yeah, I think his article on Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the only definitive evidence of him being a huge fan, though there was some evidence to suggest he may have had an interest in Xenoblade Chronicles even earlier. He posted a photo of a Monado replica from a Press Start concert on Twitter before Shulk was even revealed for Smash, but still that doesn't necessarily mean much. Xenoblade Chronicles did always strike me as a game that Sakurai would find appreciation in, though. It's a very special game.

Essentially my thoughts. With the lower focus on newcomers and how it seems the ballot was mostly for Ultimate I just don't see Sakurai pushing to get Rex in the base game but I wouldn't be surprised if he was the first DLC character

Yeah, I definitely don't expect Rex & Pyra in the base game either. Elma, on the other hand, I'm fairly confident in.

She wears a skin-tight bodysuit with huge heels and whips people. That's a pretty... recognizable presentation, depending on who you're talking to.

Funny enough, I think the more revealing, "sporty" alts make it less suggestive.

XB2 has a lot of darker story stuff that could push the age rating. Off the top of my head, a child character is nearly stabbed to death by her father for a petty reason, but is saved by her father being killed before he can do so. Sex trafficking is alluded to as well.
The game has some pretty coarse language in it too at times.

I'm all for a more representative roster in this game. I would love it if the newcomers were entirely female. Most of my picks are female:

Elma
Impa
Urbosa
Rex&Pyra
Tharja
Dixie Kong

when they cloned Ridley they filled in the gaps with frog DNA and now he can spontaneously switch sexes

Of good, we're finally getting the off screen screenshots. Those are so much better than text leaks.

Look at this fake ass roster leak. Off screen, blury, and they didn't even bother to do character models, it's just stock art or badly shopped other characters.

One good reason for Captain Toad is you know Toadette would be his alt just like in the game. It would bring yet another female fighter.

Then again maybe they can have Captain Toad/Toadette as a duo like Ice Climbers. I dunno, seeing another two-tag partner team would be nice after all these years.

I never ever got that Little Mac/Shulk argument. So the face is a trace……… what about the rest of the outfit? Cos Shulk's outfit isn't exactly easy to draw and tracing Little Mac ain't helping there.
