The only argument I've seen against it so far is "they haven't done it before" - which isn't really satisfactory to me
Again, he apologized for Rex not being in at the time he said that. Unless you believe we're not getting any characters after FP1, his comments have no bearing on whether Rex gets in.
One more character in the next 5 years is surely doable.Sakurai's hands are going to fall off if they do another DLC season. Is that what you want?
And I don't find those same arguments convincing. You seem to be under the impression that I'm here to try and convince you that it's going to happen. I'm not. I'm here to tell you why I believe what I believe, nothing more. If you don't want to believe it, that's your prerogative. Just as you're free to believe the Earth is flat.That's shifting the burden of proof though. If you're claiming that mythical unannounced DLC will exist, it's up to you to support that; it's not our job to make arguments why it won't exist. Right now that DLC not existing is the status quo.
(And as far as arguments why it won't exist go, being inconsistent with all of Nintendo's past DLC strategies actually isn't a bad one.)
Again, I hope we see more DLC than the announced Fighters Pass! But I see no reason to believe that we will, and quite a few reasons – diminishing returns, burnout, the desire to pursue other strategic opportunities, Nintendo's past DLC schedules – to suspect that we won't.
Again (for the 500th time), who said there will be another Fighter Pass?Sakurai said Rex wasn't getting in around the same time the DLC was decided by Nintendo. That's why we shouldn't expect him in the fighter's pass. We have no reason to expect another season of DLC, no matter how much I may want it. You sound like SHS with all these "again"s

Why did you set this joke up?Sakurai's hands are going to fall off if they do another DLC season. Is that what you want?
I'm glad someone appreciates my ideas.I really hope BGBW's "Rare googily eyes" Mii outfit idea comes to fruition
It's a who.
Why would I need an argument if I'm not arguing anything?You don't actually have an argument though. Your argument is just "they're going to do it."
Seriously though, what are we looking at?
Again (for the 500th time), who said there will be another Fighter Pass?
Vania (or Vampy as she's known in Japan) is a really popular Granblue unit, something of a faux-mascot. Both her and Katalina fit vague descriptions of "looks like they could be from a fighting game" considering one resembles Morrigan Aensland/Rachel Alucard and the other literally is in a fighting game right now. A Granblue rep was never off the table, after all.
Do you have evidence to back this up? Other than "there's no evidence right now"?Piranha Plant is the only example of DLC not in the fighter's pass format. But he was included as a bonus for preordering the game. Something that wouldn't happen again for this title. If there is any evidence for DLC in some form other than a fighter's pass or a preorder bonus, then I'd like to see it. So either we are getting another fighter's pass, which some people in here have mentioned, or we are not getting further DLC for this title. I'd love it if there were 3 passes but who knows at this point.
Fans of the JoJo Stardust Crusaders Fighting game will get PTSD from the reveal…
She does look pretty fighting gammey.(This is just the first thing I thought of after seeing her brought up before.)
Another popular Japanese character that many Western fans seem to overlook.
I'd say there's a chance for some more DQ tunes being in, though maybe getting four characters in one was a way to balance things out to make the value of the pack fairer if we only get the two tracks we've heard.What are the chances that Dragon Quest gets the same amount of music as Persona, and S-E and Sakurai bless us with an additional batch of Final Fantasy tunes and some Final Fantasy spirits as a free update? This is S-E's time to shine and make their fans happy!
No. Please don't do this. Don't make someone's life a living hell by badgering them non-stop with random pictures of female videogame characters…Same guy came back a few times, tweeted in English more specifics about the character. Specifically that it's a female character that "looks like they're from a fighting game". According to him, it's his friend who actually saw the character, not him, and he's just relaying the info from them.
Actually, thinking about it, would it be worthwhile maybe to tweet female gaming characters to this guy to see if he can get his friend to see if he recognizes them as the character he saw? We might be able to figure out who it is based on that.
Alright, sent the female fighting game guy a tweet with some Jill pics, hopefully he can check in with his friend and confirm or deny her.
Man, Jill's design has been all over the place, huh?
HA HA HA HA HA HASo if it is legitimately a female fighting game character, then they're definitely getting revealed at EVO, right? There's no better place to unveil a character fitting that description.
The colour theory is silly in the first place, but the fact you've reduced the complete spectrum of possible colours to just two is outright hilarious. More hilarious than the EVO idea above.
So far we have red/purple/yellow so the last two colors could be green and blue to complement them. Or so goes the theory.
They? How do you unlock the Pyra Mii costume?I loved the game.
Buuut that would be a controvertial choice. For several reasons.
Also they got a Mii fighter along with a message from Sakurai saying "Sorry they couldn't make it"

They'll added Wooloo to the next game to fulfil that.The XBC2 rep should be Nia instead of Rex and Pyra. The game really needs to up its Welsh quotient.
So go-to that is the first time I've seen it used and it failed to even get its point across without an explanation.It's a who.
I for one really like that this is a go-to reaction image on Smash Era now.
I like the companion theory because it works in Nakoruru's favor. :)

Only if the next Capcom character is Ruby Heart or Son Son
Only if the next Capcom character is Ruby Heart or Son Son
the latter would pretty much be Goku, lol
I've seen it used a few times already (though it's probably been TheDinoman every time, so maybe it isn't a go-to), and I got it the first time without an explaination so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯So go-to that is the first time I've seen it used and it failed to even get its point across without an explanation.
Yeah, but this one would be even more Goku than Sword Goku (since she's one of many Sun Wukong-inspired characters).

I'm shocked how little respect is there towards tetris that tetronimos aren't mentioned as a legit inclusion. Tetris was huge for Nintendo.

It's amazing how many times I have to repeat this, but I never said there would be another pass. Just more DLC. As for the reasons I believe that, they are as follows:I'm saying there is not evidence to expect another pass. Anyone suggesting that there will be another one would need to support their position with evidence
I thought so too but then we got wii fit, miis, piranha plant, etc. It's clear if they want they can come up with stuff.

One of the things Tetris is well known for is the music and that's already in the game.I'm shocked how little respect is there towards tetris that tetronimos aren't mentioned as a legit inclusion. Tetris was huge for Nintendo.
I'd rather have Tetris Effect. It even thematically ties in to Stage Morph.My insider source is telling me that we'll get a Tetris 99 stage, which will display 98 tiny Smash matches occuring at the same time.
A Tetris Effect stage (based on a PS4 exclusive game) over a Tetris 99 stage (a game published by Nintendo)? Sure.I'd rather have Tetris Effect. It even thematically ties in to Stage Morph.
It would be hilarious if, after all the fretting over Steve being ugly and "just six blocks," we got a fighter made out of Tetris blocks.
No, I don't know what their moveset would be.
Is it wrong to say that this is more visually appealing than Steve to me?
I mean it has cleaner texture. How can facts be wrong? *thinking*Is it wrong to say that this is more visually appealing than Steve to me?
Cloud will never get in.A Tetris Effect stage (based on a PS4 exclusive game) over a Tetris 99 stage (a game published by Nintendo)? Sure.
Completely different situation, but sure. If there was a Tetris stage, there is absolutely no concievable reason why Nintendo would not mandate it to be themed around a game they published and are continously pushing as a key part of their subscription service.
