People always say "it's not popular outside Japan". Yet DQIX sold 1M outside Japan and... all franchises with playable characters in Smash are japanese and the devs are japanese.
Anyway, you say stuff like this to almost every japanese character.

Are Etika's Reactions genuine?
I've see just a few that were posted on Gaf before and all looked fake.
Honest question. I know there are you tubers that legit fake this stuff for views, but maybe some of you guys know more about him since he seems to be a part of the Smash Competitive scene.

I think character unique moveset interactions would actually be really cool though. They explored it a bit in Brawl with icysaur taking more damage from fire moves for instance.
If that guy is legit he needs to seek professional help before his heart actually explodes.
Also stop breaking things.
Saber is probably a bigger character than any third party thrown around here and Sony Music, the same publisher as FGO, actually released like 5 games for Switch. Guess she's a lock.
No I haven't, I was just playing around with the master chief stuff. I haven't ever played dq, but even I know the toriyama look and slime.
This post shocked me so much that I broke my coffee table.
Counterpoint. DQ is niche everywhere other then America.
Halo and Master Chief win this battle. Take that!
I'm just messing with you.
Just replace Donald and Goofy with Nintendo look alikes
Duck Hunt step in for Donald and Goofy lol

Same. Sora is a Disney character to me more than a Square character, but maybe that's because I only like the first game.
I legitimately believe Sakurai wants Smash to be a celebration of Japanese gaming. He wants to help Japan I think he said. Sora is a celebration of Japan, but then there's Geno he likes from Square.
The only western character I truly believe he would try to get is Banjo and Kazooie due to the huge outpour for them and he's known this for over a decade.

Also the antipathy now that we know the composer is a shithose.
Because the Dixie well is well and truly poisoned at this point I'm going to start doing this I think:
It doesn't help that the new game is coming out at a really bad time.
Dragon Quest is to western games as One Piece is to western manga/anime.
And both are a crime.
this is me except the music always sucked
(also 5's story is nice)
I dunno. Even with Little Mac being created in Japan, it's not really a big deal over there. Little Mac was put into the game to appeal to Western Audiences. Just like Ridley. I think Sakurai is trying to be fair to worldwide audiences in Smash.
Yes, and it's confirmed that he'll have a gender-swap named babe-raham lincoln.
I have =[
Codename STEAM would be amazing for Smash. There's a lot of unique stuff in the games and it didn't deserve to bomb since it was actually pretty good. Anyone who doesn't at least try it for the like, $2 you can find it at now is doing themselves a disservice.
Witcher 3 is "shit" , Bloodborne is "bad game design", Mario and Kirby are unironically considered mass murderers
I dont know how anything is surprising any more when thats just a sample from today
I mean like overall these are characters made in Japan. I know some Nintendo characters have a bigger appeal to the western audience, but in terms of Japanese made characters it's like 95%? Japanese
And Sakurai has shown this Smash is getting the fan favorites so far including western demanded characters like Ridley, as you've said. But Banjo and Kazooie is pure western and not made by Nintendo.
Banjo would be harder to license and is an unlikely character but Kos-Mos isn't big enough that Sakurai would even ask.
Therefore Banjo is more likely.
1%>0%
He said he wants to help japanese gaming, Punch Out is still japanese gaming. It literally was created by Genyo Takeda, one of the most respected Nintendo devs. I don't think it's comparable to "being fair". Sure, he goes for more worldwide known characters, but it's still a fact that all characters are from jp franchises/publishers.
Modern FF and Naruto being more popular than these is kind of a disgrace lol
Honest question. Has Sakurai ever stated that he chose not to include a character because they aren't popular or well-known in Japan? I believe he's said that in the other direction.
Obviously when 99% of the cast are Japanese designs and the remainder are still from franchises that have their origins in Japan then the focus on Japanese gaming doesn't really need to be stated, but I'm just wondering if he's ever explicitly stated that.

Uh, K.Rool is not a Japanese character. And we got Shovel Knight.
Can't think of a single example. It's always been the inverse.

Phoenix Wright should be in Smash Bros as an assist trophy where he would do his classic Objection
On another subject:
Dragon Quest; what if we didn't get DQ1 or 3 protagonist. Instead of that we could got one of most popular Dragon Quest Protagonist, like DQ8?
