I can confirm that there is a spirit in the base game getting promoted to the playable roster in the near future.
Wait WHAT?
Now listen. You can't just casually confirm something like that without details... are you trying to keep me up all night or what?! I already don't get enough sleep! :P
This. Or just make them both playable.
Unironically this. Bit Trip was the first notable Indie Game that I remember hearing about on the Wii.Commander Video, that's why he disappeared from Smash after Smash 4. He'll even have Charles Martinet to narrate

I'm probably being too harsh on the bug, just salty I guess.

If it's any consolation I'm still on team Geno.
This is why we need to represent a different Pixel game. The guy should still be highlighted somehow. Is it Kero Blaster's time to shine?Quote has the uncomfortable situation of being technically owned by Nicalis because of that publisher's complete bullshit.
Reimu joins Smash.
But her design is based on her ZUNart representation in the official shmups.
Stop, I can't get more excitedBut her design is based on her ZUNart representation in the official shmups.
This is the answer.There's not a single indie game that deserves a character in Smash in my opinion. Having an assist trophy is already big enough.
this is a really weird take considering banjoOn the other hand it'd further cement the impression that Sakurai's DLC picks are all catered exclusively to Japanese audiences, and it's upsetting to think about what that does to my wishlist and to the overall Western discussion.
At this point I don't really care if a character is western or eastern. There's no quotas to fill. Every character can be Japanese or none can be. I purely want Reimu from a gameplay/fan perspective. She'd be a way more interesting fighter (in my head) than say someone like Doom Guy. Hell, I hope the rumors of Gordon Freeman being in is true because his moveset potential is way more promising than Doom Guy.I'm starting to develop something of a love/hate for Reimu.
On one hand I've come to absolutely love the pic, and could see her doing a lot of really weird shit, and with how much the internet blew up for Terry I can't wait to see the West go absolutely ape-shit over her.

I understand options, but personally I jus want whoever is the most fun to play as. A lot of western characters are semi-popular in Japan, it's just down to Sakurai's decision if the character would be fun to play as. Remember, he's a fan of shit like Half-life, DOOM, Halo, etc..I don't care about quotas, I care about options. I want the roster as stuffed as it can possibly get. And so the idea that some options are just not on the table because the Japanese don't give a shit is not one I like to hear.
For the record, I could've picked Master Chief, Rayman, Scorpion, etc. to make my point. Doom Slayer's just a personal want. Don't know why you felt the need to shit all over that, man.
Who the hell is Reimu and why there are so many people stating she should be in "by far"? I literally never heard of her or seen her aspect before this thread, and I have 50 indies on Switch and hundreds on Steam.
I already mentioned Cave Story and Touhou, but I didn't even THINK about the music... it could be fun. I'd be surprised if none of the Smash compossers have done anything touhou-related already, even if just for fun.Oh man I didn't even think about all the music she'd come along with. Insane amount of remixes out there.
I think ZUN is the most 'credited' video game composer... you can't be a video game music composer and NOT done a touhou remix at one point.I already mentioned Cave Story and Touhou, but I didn't even THINK about the music... it could be fun. I'd be surprised if none of the Smash compossers have done anything touhou-related already, even if just for fun.
I would've liked Shovel Knight, since that's the only indie game I've really played out of the recent ones but that's obviously not going to happen.
Toby Fox freehanded some Touhou music, he's got the chops for itI already mentioned Cave Story and Touhou, but I didn't even THINK about the music... it could be fun. I'd be surprised if none of the Smash compossers have done anything touhou-related already, even if just for fun.
This ain't even a bad thing. Zun has proven that he can be a competent artist when not drunk, which he always is when designing new characters.Reimu joins Smash.
But her design is based on her ZUNart representation in the official shmups.
Reimu by virtue of how important her games are, and all the absolute bangers she would bring.
people saying that "hu hu touhou characters should look like their in-game art" don't know how that's actually a great ideaThis ain't even a bad thing. Zun has proven that he can be a competent artist when not drunk, which he always is when designing new characters.
Like Marisa looking like this in Smash would be pure perfection.
When you try to Literally Who an icon of the indie/doujin game scene that's been around for decades.
More specifically those developed in a more hobbyist capacity.
