Now that Dragon Quest and Banjo-Kazooie (Rare-era) are both represented, I think the next big IP that has no Smash representation yet is Resident Evil.

This single shoot is what videogames are for me. Incredible

Of course the Duck Hunt dog is looking to a different direction.

Heh, even Pac-Man, Mega Man and Sonic are cheering for Banjo & Kazooie.

It's a copypasta/meme based off a famous NBA tweet (https://mobile.twitter.com/brohrbach/status/1012349588588716033?lang=). Sakurai leading with DQ only to pull out the BK reveal brought it to mind as him dunking on everyone, and then I just picked a prominent SmashEra poster to fill it in with.

Sorry for any confusion or discomfort, was just having fun with the announcement.

That's fine. I 'm not good with all meme or copypasta so it got my attention! I'm flattered that you think that I'm one of those prominent poster in SmashERa.

It's all good! :D

I just love how stoked K. Rool, DK and Diddy are when they see Banjo and Kazooie. Such a great touch.
Even better when you remember Banjo first appeared in Diddy Kong Racing too!
Honestly, I have no idea how they can top Banjo&Kazooie, it will be a tough act to surpass.

I still can't believe Nintendo put Banjo in before some mobile Gacha juggernaut. Now that is throwing the west a bone.
Not really.
Nintendo is behind "classic gaming" with full force and Banjo Kazooie is part of Nintendo history.
To them Sonic, Pac Man, Castlevania, Megaman and Dragon Quest are more relevant than some recent gacha IP.

With both this and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, this has been my most favorite E3 in a very long time.

I'm really glad they went with a slightly different take on Banjo's design than going with the nuts and bolts look. The nuts and bolts one just lacks expression

I'm just so happy that it finally happened. The stars just happened to align so that this smash and it's dlc came out at a time where the relationship between Microsoft and Nintendo couldn't be better. It is just really miraculous =')

- Crash
- Spyro
- Gex
- Bubsy
- Conker
- Ratchet & Clank
- Sly Cooper
- Jak & Daxter
- Parappa
- Sackboy

I hope however gets hit with the ultimate also falls off a tower, leaves a hole in the ground and gets covered by a boulder.

Wonder if there's any chance of a skin option for the classic look rather than the Nuts & Bolts look.

Jill Valentine would be great. Banjo being the first western third-party addition opens a lot of doors though, especially now that Microsoft are officially playing ball.
