What is a leak? Just a miserable pile of secrets.

Simon has been my most wanted third party character since the Brawl Dojo era. There's just so many moves, items, assist trophies, stages, and songs possible, and there's such a close history with Nintendo.
Yep, it's gonna be amazingggggg

It's been heavily rumored for a while, but it will be nice for it to finally be confirmed.

The only question is:

Classic style?

Or Kojima style?

I hope they give him absurdly beefy thighs and the same walk animation from Super Castlevania IV.

The beefy thighs would offer a canonical explanation for the walk. Too much friction, you see.

So that makes two SEGA reps, two Capcom, two Konami. All we need now is another Namco and another Squeenix and we equal as far as third parties go

Honestly, after Snake was introduced, my third party wishlist went:

-Mega Man
-Simon Belmont
-Bomberman
-Pac-Man
-Ryu
-An FF1-6 character
-Ryu Hayabusa

Like, almost all of those are represented now except Haybusa, and the FF character was Cloud. Who else could they possibly pick, except like, a Dragon Quest character or Arthur?

Both would be beautiful, but SCIV for the default, please.

Really, tho, some artistic license would be fine. Simon's been MIA for a while.

I've only played through Castlevania 1. It was way too hard to be truly enjoyable, but I still loved the aesthetic and premise. And while "Bloody Tears" is great, "Vampire Killer" is one of the best tracks in all of gaming music. In fact, the quality of the songs alone in the Castlevania is enough to justify a rep.

But if/when Simon is announced, it will hopefully be enough to finally get me to blaze through SCIV on my SNES Classic!

Like, there's no chance it wouldn't come with Simon, and it stands a strong chance of appearing in the reveal trailer, but if Simon does get in, I need my Vampire Killer fix.

One of the few remaining Japanese mega-franchises that is actually popular worldwide, and that has a rich legacy on Nintendo:

Resident Evil Gaiden (GBC)
Resident Evil Deadly Silence (NDS)
Resident Evil Remake (GCN)
Resident Evil Zero (GCN)
Resident Evil 2 (GCN)
Resident Evil 3 (GCN)
Resident Evil: Code Veronica (GCN)
Resident Evil 4 (GCN, Wii)
Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles (Wii)
Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles (Wii)
Resident Evil Revelations (3DS, WiiU, Switch)
Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D (3DS)
Resident Evil: Revelations 2 (Switch)

Jill with her STARS beret and shoulder pads is an iconic design. Give her the RE1 grenade launcher with round types to manage (flame, acid, nitrogen) and a stun baton from RE5. Give her BOWs for her specials -- for example, her recovery sweeps her skyward with a murder of crow, her side special has her sidestep a lunging Hunter that strikes her opponent instead, etc. And for her Final Smash, have her leap into a helicopter and fire rockets.

Spencer Estate for her stage, of course!

-Maria
-Just some old skeleton tossing bones
-Medusa heads
-Slogra and Gaibon
-Giant Bat
-Axe armor
-Dracula

Ayami Kojima guest artwork TBH.
Duuuuuuuuude, hadn't thought of this.

Yoooo, this is amazing! And totally something Smash would do to. Take a well-known track and rearrange it with a whole different genre.
Yeah, their whole channel is gold.

I'd think Dracula, but he could be a stage hazard. Alucard if not him.

I just want:

- beefy thighs and power-walk animation
- wiggle whip
- skeletons that explode into fire
- medusa heads with petrifying effects
- a clocktower (could be a section of a Castle Siege-style stage)

Everything else is a bonus.

Sooooo... maybe the Third Parties are getting two characters each this time?

Yes I posted this just to wrap around back to Geno and I'm not sorry.
