yaaaaaas
He'd be closer to Robin than Marth at least.
I feel like they're simply colors. With how minute the differences are between some of the new Echo fighters, making that many characters alternate costumes doesn't make a lot of sense especially with the, honestly really stupid, resctriction of each character only having 8 costume slots.I'm confused regarding the Erdrick stuff. It says there's Anlucia and DQXI Hero colours, but does this mean just a palette swap resembling them, or an actual alternate costume?
Erdrick isn't even a character, he/she's not even named Erdrick in the game until the end where it's a title given. Canonically, all Dragon Quest protagonists are just called The Hero.As I understand it, Dragon Quest III and Erdrick are the Final Fantasy VII and Cloud of Dragon Quest.
Don't know why square would go for dragon quest one kingdom hearts unless the latter isn't an option.
Erdrick being Smash DLC would be the closest thing to Goku being in.
Don't know why square would go for dragon quest over kingdom hearts unless the latter isn't an option.
Will they go with the Famicom child design or the SFC remake design? The fact that Fem Erdrick is included makes me think it's the latter (Toriyama never properly designed a female Erdrick in the original). Would probably better match Ann Lucia and Luminary too.
Square has a vested interest in trying to promote Dragon Quest in the West, since it's a series that actually needs the help. Smash would be a perfect conduit for doing that.Don't know why square would go for dragon quest over kingdom hearts unless the latter isn't an option.
Sakurai gave us Conan the Barbarian Simon Belmont and Pac-Man World Pac-Man. I'm positive he'll go with the older design.Will they go with the Famicom child design or the SFC remake design?

this. it just makes me not want to buy the pass even if the remaining 3 characters are amazing.I really hope that "leak" about Smash isn't true. Sugiyama is an evil, evil man, and not a cent of Smash's profits should go to him.
Kingdom Hearts representation in Smash would require Disney's approval on top of Nomura's, & there's no guarantee that Sora would remain available for purchase indefinitely if we go by other Disney licenses. You're also underestimating how iconic Dragon Quest is, especially in Japan.Don't know why square would go for dragon quest over kingdom hearts unless the latter isn't an option.
lol, the more you knowit's not his fault Atlus put all the chips in with the worst console possible!
Because Dragon Quest is a much more iconic franchise in Japan. And a bigger one as well. Wouldn't make sense to go for KH instead.
One of the rumours surrounding the game's development is that Cloud was literally one of the last characters they got the rights to. It would make sense that a new Squeenix character wouldn't be ready by launch if you believe that.Piggyback rumor. I feel like if it was feasible for DQ stuff to be in Smash it would already be in the game.
So I see a lot of people not wanting a DQ character in because of Sugiyama, and I want to say 2 things about that.
1. Sugiyama isn't the sole contributor to Dragon Quest, and while it's your money and 100% your right to choose not to buy something for any reason, I feel it's wrong to shun the work of something created by a team of people solely because of the actions of one person, and in this case not even apart of the development team.
2. Because I don't think Sugiyama would allow his music to be released outside of Japan for Smash because of how fucking xenophobic he is, Smash would probably have to commission a bunch of remixes like how the Bayonetta songs had to be remixed into versions without lyrics, which means he wouldn't be getting any royalties because they aren't using his versions of the song.
Plus dragon quest games appear on nintendo consoles, kh does not. If we view this as partly marketing there's a big dq game coming to switch so a dq character makes a ton more sense
I could see Square wanting more DLC because there is more opportunity for $$$. But they better play ball with tracks and rights in future games.
As for DQ itself I can't say I'm interest, it'll be rather lame if the whole DLC selection is a love letter to Japanese devs.
Nintendo has had several KH games on its hardware. Chain of Memories, Re. Coded, 358/2 Days, and Dream Drop Distance all appeared on Nintendo.
Smash as a whole seems to be a love letter to Japanese devs (Rare and Retro being slight exceptions, lol).
Nah. Smash rumors are a popular place for people to speculate. Unless something major happens soon that prooves this rumor to be substantially more legitimate, this thread will die in a day or two.
Yeah, but they're not playable so they tend to get overlooked, lol.
But every single DQ game is on a Nintendo platform, unlike KH. Mainline and spinoffs included (well, practically every spinoffs, there are some PS2 untranslated ones and a few mobile stuff).
Such weird names. And no mainline games. Wasn't there a kh collection released this year or last? But not released on the switch. Nintendo gets mainline dq games. A dq character makes a ton more senseNintendo has had several KH games on its hardware. Chain of Memories, Re. Coded, 358/2 Days, and Dream Drop Distance all appeared on Nintendo.
Considering the lack of Persona on Nintendo hardware, I don't think that matters so much, lol.
Persona 5 is coming in 2019. I'd bet that absolutely has something to do with joker getting inConsidering the lack of Persona on Nintendo hardware, I don't think that matters so much, lol.

Granblue Fighting game was announced. Or was it announced earlier and I didn't see it?Nah. Smash rumors are a popular place for people to speculate. Unless something major happens soon that prooves this rumor to be substantially more legitimate, this thread will die in a day or two.
