Metal Gear didn't bring Snake to Playstation All-Stars. They brought Raiden.
This can be solved easily by giving each Hero his own square in the CSS ;)
Snake wasn't in Playstation All Stars, they got Raiden instead
I like how Ultimate's base unique roster lineup is evenly divided between legacy fan favorites (Ridley, K. Rool, Simon) and modern major Nintendo characters (Inkling, Isabelle, Incineroar).
The latter group all start with "I", oddly enough

They should be disqualified just by association.
Tekken brings their biggest hitter to Playstation All-Stars? Go sit in the corner and think about what you did, gigantic video game series.
Trinen talks a bit about Banjo
10ish minutes in if the timestamp didn't work
Nothing really new, but it's nice to hear them talk about Rare and Banjo

So damn surreal hearing someone at Nintendo talk about Rare and Banjo.
Viridi can use the same exact powers, I assume any god/goddess could use them, much less your old coworker
Just make them "dark" visual variants. You could probably make autoretical "eye beams" or something, even.
Also we're in a game where Daisy can float so I really don't think it'd be an issue for Medusa to throw out a barrier
I just think Resident Evil and Tekken are really unsurprising picks, and talking about them for months on end seems really dull. They're going to dominate discussion because they're the biggest Japanese created IPs not yet in Smash. And filling the roster in that way when smaller series have already gotten representation seems really boring.
They're just here because they're the biggest. Not because they make for the coolest roster additions.

Why does the Ultimate Alliance 3 CSS remind me of Smash? Who made this call? Was it Team Ninja? Are they trying to say something? LOL.
I'm okay with Tekken on the basis that I'm in favor of more fightgame reps in general, though I'm less enthused about Resident Evil
Yep even Capcom didn't bring mainline Dante to PlayStation All Stars
And Konami only let them have Raiden.
Dream Mix TV World Fighters? Yeah, it was a Konami Smash-like from back then.What the actual shit is this
Wait a second, is that Optimus Prime?
Personally, I'd love to see how Sakurai would integrate Resident Evil into Smash. There's just not going to be a wide range of discussion with only two slots left and other companies accounted for.
I'd be surprised if we get characters from franchises that aren't: Tekken, Resident Evil, Tales, Crash Bandicoot, Ninja Gaiden, Monster Hunter, and uh... maybe Ace Attorney if they're still listening to fan demand?
If Bomberman wasn't an Assist Trophy, I'd be caping for him hardcore. Sad.
A trash game with some hysterical roster picksWhat the actual shit is this

Look at what you are writing. They bought the chips in bulk and got them cheaper than if they bought less of them, sure, that's a safe bet. So how many did they buy? If just enough for NES mini's first run - they could get cheaper chips in bulk as well, unless they got better discount on the more expensive ones, but that would have nothing to do with N64. If they bought enough of them to cover SNES and N64 as well? This is suspiciously risky, since as you theorize yourself N64 mini wasn't greenlit before NES Classic started selling out. Wait, this actually gets better - there's one circumstance where I can easily see them buying a load of chips for potentially cancelled products like that: they got them on a discount, and then pre-planned SNES and N64 mini. But guess what: with NES and SNES Classic selling out, they could abandon software development of N64 mini and sell the rest of chips with the already coded products.
All in all, this preplanning thing could happen, but is it really worth it to claim it probably did, instead of NERD deciding that they're done with cost cuts at some point?
Did not beat Squeenix and Activision into submission?
I guarantee the general reactions wouldn't be like this if either got revealed, eapecially RE.
I fully expect stuff from Rare minus active IP. So nothing from Killer Instinct or Battletoads. Probably nothing from Kameo or Viva Piñata.
So that leaves RC Pro AM, Jetpac, Perfect Dark, Blast Corps, and Jet Force.
They don't buy the chips beforehand, they likely negotiate a price, like "OK what if we say we could use this chip also in a SNES Classic and N64 Classic, will you give us a cheaper price", then the supplier takes that into account, that getting this production order could be something that pays off for them for several years instead of just a one off thing so they give Nintendo a better guaranteed price on that basis.
Anyways we'll find out soon enough, but I think a N64 Classic is a no brainer. Likely the chip they already have can handle N64 games just fine, it's more powerful than the Wii ever was. Making NERD do some work isn't some negative downside ... you're paying them to do (well) work, so work on something that'll actually make you money.
A N64 Classic will make Nintendo a good deal of money. This fall would be a good time for release too since the 3DS is really nosediving in sales/revenue, N64 Classic can pick up that slack.
I played TV World Fighters with my bro back in the day, I think he ripped it onto a disc.
I wanted to play it because I was really crazy about Transformers and I saw it had Optimus Prime AND Megatron in it. It's not a very good game at all, but the roster is all kinds of nuts.

Agreed. SUPER SMASH BROS. X RESIDENT EVIL at the VGA would cause eruptions of applause.
Hey yuoke haven't seen you in this thread for a minute, lol.
Gonna be so good seeing Perfect Dark content back in Smash. They should bring the cloaking device back.
I'd be pleasantly surprised by a RE character. Jill would be amazing with a zombie in her moveset similar to MvC2 along with giant rocket launchers. Not to mention the female representation. She's probably our best shot.
I kinda hope Phoenix gets an animated bit like Joker had, though I'm not holding my breath
we had quite more of those in Smash 4 - Little Mac, Palutena, Robin - but budget concerns for Fighters Pass trailers makes me think it's not gonna happen

I used to not be as down for RE, but seeing as firearms might be possible, I could see that working out a lot better. It's not my particular pick, but I've got nothing against the series and I'm sure Sakurai could do it well.
(I know I'm the Ninja Gaiden guy around these parts, and I definitely do want Hayabusa, and I do think Koei Tecmo deserves a rep, but I should note that I've landed on him after already getting so many characters I wanted. And I'm not really expecting him any time soon. I just think it'd be fun to talk about the series more often because I really enjoy most of the games. And I enjoy the Dead or Alive games too, for the most part, lol.)
Would you consider Banjo & Kazooie getting into Smash the video game equivalent of Spiderman joining the MCU?
I remember all the wholesome fanart that came out of that
(the disney and sony executives shaking hands in the background is a nice touch)

The CG reveal for Jill in Resident Evil is totally gonna be Luigi in the original RE mansion isn't it.

(That's actually a pretty apt comparison, lol.)
That's a good way of putting it, yeah. This definitely feels like a homecoming for Banjo & Kazooie.

I'm not hot on either Resident Evil (though at least we'd hopefully get Jill front lining it) or Tekken but I understand why it would be them and I guess I'll just submit that they're the last ones. I think the final one will be a bigger deal but I can see it still being Heihachi or whatever.
At this point I want a Pass 2 or continued DLC support. Nintendo characters with the Smash 4 style of release specifically

I mean, firearms are no longer a "might" thing after Joker. You can say it's a toy gun, but it's basically indistinguishable from the real thing in Smash.
It makes me kinda annoyed Snake still doesn't have his tranq pistol.
