    I mean if they wanted to top that, Geno's pretty much the biggest 3rd party request out there and conspicuous by his absence as a Mii costume.

    You bring up an excellent point.....
    *enters mad theory time*
    That reminds me of when that YouTuber guy got copyright strikes for having Megalovania and two Mario RPG songs and had them with Smash banners. Considering that Sans became a costume with Megalovania with it, along with thr fact that each Square character only got two songs each (two for each hero variant) then there's only two explanations!!!

    One: Geno is the last fighter
    Two: Geno costume with thr songs.

    .....that's all I got

    Geno's gotta be a fighter this time. Sakurai himself has wanted Geno to be playable since Brawl.

    I'm half and half on this. I'm in Australia: Super Mario RPG did not exist in Australia. Or Europe. Basically it was only ever released in Japan and NA so most of the world haven't played the game, unless they picked it up on the Virtual Console

    But my years with Smash Bros stuff has shown me people absolutely love that series, and its been a constant request ever since Melee's days, even when getting Sonic in the game was considered an impossibility

    Smash fans ask for anything. But the simple fact of the matter, Geno really has no gaming history to pull from. Almost every fighter ether has a detailed history themselves, or their series does. Geno is just... a nothing. A Nobody. Hell I'd bet you 90 percent of the people begging for him couldn't tell you anything more than "he was the Awesome puppet from SMRPG."

    This is the exact argument people were making against Banjo.

    But hey, some numbers are coming in from Twitter stuff showing the so-far popular ones, plus various folks have started a poll to see what people want

    (As someone who has played Minecraft I remain completely opposed to Steve)

    The fact that gundam is on there is dumb. It's an anime, thus Goku should be on it.

    I want Chrono, Rex & Pyra (or Mythra), and Zero to be added.

    What? Why? Banjo and Kazooie have 3 whole games they're the main characters of. Geno's was only ever a side character in a single rpg game. You'd think that people would also ask for Goombella or Kooper from the Paper Mario series, considering they have the same level of impact on the overall Mario series.
    People are weird.

    It was a joke about some people wanted Shrek in Smash.

    You missed out on the Banjo v Steve rivalry that took over the net, with people calling Banjo an irrelevant cereal mascot? As opposed to the beacon of personality and not Steve -"The first thing I did was replace the skin with something else"- from Minecraft

    I'm surprised this video wasn't posted here yet. Also, page number? Nice.

    So the Game Franchise-only rule is reconfirmed. If only we could get true confirmation about the spirits rule....

    Since we got an update, I need to ask. What were the spirits between Banjo Kazooie and the Tetris blocks? I think I missed an event somewhere....

    My bet is next week. This Friday feels too soon to me.

    Yeah, with Luigi's Mansion 3 this weekend I would say no. And aren't the DLC usually released Tuesday or Wednesday? I'm pretty neutral on Terry. More looking forward to the next batch. So many different rumors. Really hoping for one of Crash/Spyro/Master Chief.
