Source on his reaction to Etika? Sounds interesting to read up on.
I was going to suggest this for a bet I tried to start yesterday, but here you go:
This is definitely what I'm going to make yuoke wear.
Sakurai retweeted Etika's reaction to Mewtwo.
Oh, I thought it was like one of his famitsu collum things. Still cool, though.
Props to you for admitting your bias, misguided a bias as it is.
The way Street Fighter time works, Sakura will work in an arcade until 2039.That's the thing, even if Twelve & Remy were the only misses, they're still misses. I'd argue that the only real miss for SFV is Necalli (even Abigail has his charm, especially in his animations & voice lines, to the point where I can't bring myself to hate him).
Can I just say how happy I am that they redesigned Sakura? Hopefully Capcom revisits that jean jacket design for SFVI (can't have her working at the arcade forever).
How the fuck are we halfway done with the 1 year timeline Sakurai said it would take to make all the DLC and we only have 20% of the content revealed?
We aren't halfway yet (content is set to be released by February 2020) but ignoring that, the simple reason is that Piranha Plant happened between launch a Joker. It's all about keeping up player interest and not leaving large gaps between content updates:
- 1.0 (launch): December 7th 2018
- 2.0 (Piranha Plant): January 29th 2019
- 3.0 (Joker): April 17th 2019
Eh. Still a better release schedule than Disney channel with their shows.
I mean, we are getting at least 1 character announced at E3. And the rest are probably coming in quick succession afterwards.

They could release a new character every two months starting in July and still be within scheudle.
option 2?Hey IntelliHeath and BGBW, have you guys decided on an avatar if it turns out that Brave isn't Erdrick? I submit for approval:
Kage tho.
I'm guessing a reveal and release at E3, plus another trailer for an upcoming character to be released in July/August.
After that, character four should probably be revealed and/or launched by November, and the last one could probably debut at the Game Awards followed by a February 2020 release.
That's my guess.
Thanks. The more I look at it, the more I realize she could be similar to Joker, minus the counter mechanic. Initially, I thought she could work like Cloud and just have one powered up move at a time, or even have Issen behave similar to Mac's KO Punch, but I'm thinking the temporary increase to all her moves like Joker would be more feasible (I can see the petty fans argue that she'd be a lazy retread of Joker, but I don't see how Sakurai could make her any better)

Hmm, mine is for Season Pass 2 for someone who requested me to take over.
Erdrick is as honest as they come. He's the legendary hero, and he can do no wrong. He's a paragon of virtue.
Gex is the most honest character, but we don't deserve him.
The Smash Fandom doesn't deserve the most honest character.
You monsters.

I've personally felt that certain franchisees that are popular yet are considered "dead" (stuff like megaman and castlevania) had a much bigger chance of being included in base roster since they would be much cheaper to pick up as opposed to certain titles (DQ and FF). It's entirely possible that konami's conflict with kojima was a factor.
He has always topped fan polls (around top 5 easily) even before KH3 was out.
I don't think KH really is that "young" tbh, 17 years is not from the NES times.
We'll never know tbh, but having a placeholder doesn't really tell us whether a character has been fully signed on and agreed by all parties. Cloud and corrin may have been already agreed on before bayo was finalized.
One's a video game character, the other isn't. And KH is disney so maybe we can put off the "2 reps argument for SQ".
A thought occurred to me a few days ago. I wonder if the possible/eventual Persona 5 Arena will just stick with Joker rather than Ren Amamiya as was established by the anime & other spin-off games (plus what ASW uses on Twitter). Now that Smash beat Arc System Works to the punch, most will know him as Joker. The part that has me curious is that if ASW sticks with the Ren name, it may cause confusion for those who know Ren/Joker from Smash.
As for my prediction, I feel like it'll depend on how they name the other Phantom Theives in P5A/P5U. If the likes of Ryuji & Ann go by Skull & Panther (like they're referred to for their Funko POP figures), ASW will probably follow Sakurai's lead & just refer to Ren as Joker. On the flip side, if they use the full Ryuji & Ann names, maybe they'll go with Ren.

Likewise, after what happened with Roy, I'd imagine that Sakurai wouldn't want to lock down any ideas for Byleth, Edelgard, or anyone else from Three Houses until the game is just about to go gold. At least with Corrin, Fire Emblem Fates had been out in Japan for months prior to Sakurai pinning him down to be included in Smash. In this case, everyone was nailed down as of November 6th, 2018. From then, Three Houses would have been over 8 months away from release.
If the story mode is any similar to how the previous ones were, then they're definitely giving him Ren during it imo even if during the vs battles they only use codenames. There's gotta be scenes where they hang out outside the palaces/tv world/dark hour/whatever is the setting.
Now that you mention it, it'd be pretty cool if they gave us the option to change the Phantom Theives' names for the character select screen & the life bars between their real names & their codenames if/when P5A/P5U happens.
I, uh, well, he is a sixteen year old boy. He can't be perfect.
The only statistic I can find is that Kirby is the most honest, righteous and truthful character on the roster.
Everyone else pales in comparison to his pureness.
Pichu is into self-harm.
Everyone has a dark side. Except Kirby.
I have no idea who this character is, but the crazy anime hair, the massive eyes and the weirdly designed clothing suggests it's probably someone from Dangosomething.
I'm impressed that you actually guessed the franchise correctly. That's Kokichi Oma from Danganronpa V3
and he definitely isn't an honest boy; that's the joke.
I'm not impressed at all, the series' characters are super easy to pick out lol. They thread this absolutely bizarre line where they are actually kind of basic in terms of design and still manage to be ridiculously overdesigned. It's insane.
Dedede had a major dishonesty plot in Kirby's Adventure.
Wario had a major dishonesty plot in WarioWare 1.
Some Links have dishonest moments, but I struggle to remember a mandatory one.
Ganondorf is dishonest to the king.
Sonic had a dishonest moment in Adventure 1, but seems to have mostly left that behind, and it was a desperate moment.
Bowser Jr. is dishonest.
Bowser and Lucina and Sheik are up to interpretation. Thus Zelda also is.
The Joker's plot seems dishonest from the outside.
Snake has some definite dishonesty points, especially if it's not just Solid Snake.
Lucas canonically gets dishonest at at least one point.
Palutena likes trolling Pit but the major dishonesty part seems to be limited to her not being herself.
In comparison to Louie, Olimar appears to be honest, but I'm not deep into that lore.
I doubt there's conclusive data for ROB.
Samus, Mario and Luigi appear to be honest.
This looks less clear and cut than I expected.

There's nothing honest about autocracy so Lucina and Zelda/Sheik are just as shifty to me.
Palutena is a voyeur who looks at Pit bathing. Also the entire plot of Uprising is about how petty divine squabbles fuck up the world.
Olimar is a colonialist who wishes to exploit indigenous populations for profit.

Naw, it's Isabelle. It's too bad those bullies like to go after my Isabelle last night.
If it has a story mode I'd find it hard that they wouldn't use his name.
Also he's listed as Ren in Dancing in Starlight.
Yeah, that's what I meant by spin-offs. Still, it'd be cool if Arc System Works did the name option where you could switch between codenames & real names for the Phantom Theives.
Also, I kinda hope they go the GGXrd/DBFZ route with the visuals.
Just read some of the re-translation from Pushdustin and I'm thinking we'll only get one Smash character at E3.
Sakurai said he didn't want to release all 3 characters back at E3 2015 and that for Ultimate he has to create a lot from scratch.
We'll see.

Sounds like one announcement at E3. Again character is an event so he wants them to have all spotlight until the next announcement. 3rd character is likely in August.
