ARMS soudntrack, idk im drunk at 4am what do you mean
Swear to my Bones from Persona 5 (Outro): • Video
This new announced fighter makes a lot of sense, but it also really doesn’t at the same time.
min min for the win win
how does it not?
The eternal quest to deny Crash Bandicoot fans
BigHailFan Watch the video and find out.
when they teased Joker, everyone instantly bought the first dlc pass and it did not matter what came afterwards. When they announced this, everybody be like: "Who the fck cares about Arms, idc about Arms so i wont buy it i guess". For what / who is this dlc. Promotion? In which way? Bringing Arms players to play Smash? Why would they if they have their own fighting-game? It just makes no sense whatsoever.
Everyone’s overlooking the true positive: We get to see another trailer where someone outranges the previously longest Fsmash
Next character after ARMs is Melee Marth
Doesn’t Megaman have the longest range on that though? It’s literally a projectile.
Aerrok they never acknowledge it. I’m referring to how we had Shulk outranging someone in his trailer, then Corrin outranging Shulk in theirs, then Belmonts outranging Corrin.
It's a classic
@@Dust_Bunnee It might be the longest, but I could see the ARMS character being able to outrange it.
"Mii Costumes can be characters now if Ribbon Girl is confirmed."
Ah yes. Finally. Samus, Captain Falcon, and Isabelle can join the roster.
Don't forget peach, fox, and mario!
But not chrom, he's in Robin's final smash
girl fox for smash
@0sumashi r/wooosh
MarioGMan25 don’t forget the Krule mii costume
“Jiggly Belmont” now that’s horrifying. I’m gonna have nightmares
Its just Jigglypuff with the Vampire Killer... oh no...
Jigglymont
It's blessed. Accept it. Jigglmont is an inescapable force. Love your knew neutral B god.
They're promoting social distancing with ARMS characters, duh.
Hah nice
Argascend. Yes, if you wanna fight, you punch from a far
Please never utter the words "Jiggly Belmont" ever again.
Jiggly Belmont

"because mii costumes can become characters and you know what that means~"
*looks over at chrom*
*remembers chrom is an echo, mii skin, and final smash robin representative* the guys everywhere lol
And Isabelle
We already knew he was playable before we saw his Mii costume in SSBU.
looks over at captain falcon and samus
@@q-miiproductions878 Chrom was a Mii costume in Smash 4.
We've all been duped.
It's actually Elastigirl.
*_LE GASPPPPPPPPPPPP_*
>shadman
saltee Bruh.
No it’s mr fantastic
nah, gotta be Luffy
Sakurai: *calls Byleth a "distance demon"*
Also Sakurai two months later:
That's the distance demonlord right there.
Distance Demonlord, Savior/Bane of No Range Land!
Byleth range isn’t that big anyways
TFW *that's the joke*
Angel Mendez-Rivera his joke is byleth compared to arms, mine is byleth vs existing ultimate characters
I hope the reveal trailer is kind of like Terry’s reveal, with all the characters fighting over it and keeping us in suspense until the end where the character’s revealed.
I can actually see that
I'd like it if they did that, except a character that isn't from Arms gets in.
That'd honestly be really cool.
What if it's like the koppalings but each alt have a different moveset. It would be interesting but I doubt it
@@mattnikolaus That would be hilarious
"Mii Costumes can make it in if that's the case"
Yes! Finally, the man, the myth, my idol, the one I've been rooting for since Ultimate was announced! No one may know where he's from, but I know deep down in my heart that it's finally *Captain Falcon's* time to shine!
I’m pretty sure trophy’s is where everyone would draw the line
Isabelle costume?
But I don't think ribbon girl is coming because she is a spirit
Steve N
To be fair, they are old costumes. I don't think it makes much sense for new costumes to also be fighters but old costumes are fair game. I do however think the spirits argument holds up though for a pretty simple reason. Whenever a new DLC is created, the create a new Spirit board where you only fight the DLC spirits, so it's seemingly always somebody not represented by Spirits. Notice how on release, there were no Persona, Banjo, Dragon Quest, Three Houses, or King of Fighter spirits in World of Light until they got released. This means characters like say... Captain Toad might not make it in, but Master Chief and Dante are fair game. If Arms 2 does come out and the spirits we fight are new characters, this will all but confirm that theory.
Wait there an Inkling Mii, right?
*DOES THIS MEAN INKLING MIGHT GET IN?! YES!*
Sans
Arms character: Little Mac with Simon's range
Azurite Fox When is there going to be a little mac kirby or little mac jiggly puff
Their recovery spikes them
So Little Mac but zero recovery.
waluigi number one thats just regular little mac
Am i right or am i right?
Arms characters be like:
Long Mac
Wheres the lie tho?
Idk...
Somewhere lost
Large mac
Mac with recovery
It's like Mac but can ko punch from the opposite blast zone.
They have better recovery, slow ground game, nikida fists and a very bad rapid jab...
“Mii costumes can be in the game”
*megalovania intensifies*
*Floral Fury intensifies*
Haha funny sanss xddddd
They were before. Mario, king k rool, and samus, isabelle just to name a few
i mean i hope mii costumes can be in the game, how can you equip it if it can’t be in the game you know (you’re never gonna get my joke i’m sure).
Let's remember that King K Rool, Chrom and Daisy were Mii costumes in Smash 4
Regardless on which ARMS character gets into Smash, the most important thing to take from this is from the words of Sakurai himself:
*“It’s more important that a character is fun to play, not just recognisable”*
True that
Everyone likes to ignore that, it seems.
Found you
Agreed
Then Helix
To anyone who's hoping for Twintelle because BOOTY:
Look at Snake in Brawl.
Look at Snake in Ultimate.
Understand that your French waifu is going to suffer the same fate.
Smash Ultimate may have a lot, but it doesn't have ass.
Little Mac *IS* ass, lol

idk, look at zeldas hitbox
Ry McClure you make a fair point good sir
“Then Mii costumes can become characters!”
Me: FUNNY SKELETON MAN!

No, but yes
They're gonna be like "we said an arms character so here's every one of them as their own roster spots"
or as a costume like the koopalings for bowser jr.
@@lionkingmerlin Nah, unlike the Koopalings, the ARMS characters actually have their own unique skillsets. No way that one could be a costume for another, other than Springtron for Springman.
@@vision4860 Yeah each character has there own ability, for example, Ribbon Girl can jump up to 4 or 5 times, Master Mommy heals HP when guarding/blocking, Twintelle can slow down time, etc 👀 They'd all be echo fighters with slight differences. No way it would just be Ribbon Girl or Spring Man after they showed the entire roster like that. Well, actually lol it is Nintendo though... 🙄
Finally a franchise to compete for spots with fire emblem
@@BlueShellOfficial I have the same wish you have. I hope we get 8 echoes where each character has their own unique quirk as well as a different fist for their Side B...if side B is the "punch" move.
My hot theory: EVERY ARMS CHARACTER AS ALTS FOR ONE SLOT
yeah no, i dont see anyone jiving with Master Mummy being the same weight and body size as Ribbon Girl.
@@brandongreen4439 They did the same with Mort and Larry tho
@@hinamiravenroot7162 Cept Mort and Larry work cause they in the Koopa car and only their top half is showing. Have them do the same pose and they're hurtbox will be near identical. But You can't do that with Master Mummy and Ribbon girl.
@@hinamiravenroot7162 I guess you mean Morton and Roy?
I bet it won't be all characters, but I think it will be more than one sharing the same generic moveset.
March: [Alpharad] "I mean, yeah, Min Min won that popularity poll, but that's too obvious, if they were going to pick an Arms character, it would be to promote something."
June: [Sakarai] "We added Min Min because the guy who made the game likes her and asked me to."

Do you really want Jigglybelmont
When he said that, I had the mental image of Simon Belmont made of jello wobbling around with a rubbery whip that bounces all over the place.
you mean helix
I remember that you said in one of your videos, "Chrom is a playable character, a mii costume and it's on Robin's final smash, half of the rules we had for smash were broken with Chrome"

Welp, we got Dhalsim alright.
Why is everyone forgetting that each of the arms characters have gimmicks
I know right
@TheDragonDAFan I've never played the game before so this is accurate.
1:42
Dragamation he named the 2 most boring ones
Yeah I'd be down for one of the newer characters they added to ARMs after launch, they were more interesting than most of the base roster (except Helix and the Robot cop one)
"Out of the entire castof character, who will they add?"
And then it's like Bowser jr. and the koopalings, where you can just change between all of them
That's my guess too
Then I’ll at least have my main man-woman-thing Helix 🧬
Seems like the most likely option.
"Which one is it?"
"I think you mean, which ones isn't it?"
nah it would just be twintelle at that point
Yeah, I think it's going to be like that
"Do you really want a Jiggly Belmont?"
*never in my life have i needed something so much and not known until i received it*

Finally, a character that can make Arsene's counter miss
We don't know that yet lol
Doubt it. Counters still work against Piranha Plant's down-B despite it's stupidly-long range.
@@Xnaut314 To be fair, his head is still a hurtbox, so the range doesn't help with that
They should nerf that bullshit
inb4 there's a hurtbox on the fist.
although actually the way arms works, I wouldn't be too surprised if you can smack their fist out of the air to temporarily disable their long range attacks.
You said that it doesn’t make sense that an arm character didn’t join the original fighters but the reason that spring man isn’t a playable character is because the development times didn’t work together so he was made as a assist trophy
I think you nailed it
plot twist: how the grinch stole fighter pack 6
Exactly. When the roster for SSBU was decided, Arms itself was probably still in a very early development stage. Just like Rex from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 didn't make it due to that same reason.
Alpha: “Wow, I can’t wait to be F-Smashed from across the entire stage!” Belmonts: “Are we a Joke to you?”
Arms characters vs. Belmonts vs byleth vs shulk can't waaiit for that to happen
The command grabs tho
They’re probably just gonna copy luffy’s movement from flash2
@@zackhimmelberger1771 Oh jeez, while there at it just give him/her melee normal grab range if they give him/her that many grabs and range.
MegaMan: says nothing because Nintendo said he doesn't talk.
Little Mac in Smash: *exists*
Spring Man: I'm about to end this boxer's career
It would be hilarious if they did ANOTHER Incineroar trailer where all the other "traditional" fighting characters beat on Little Mac, the small boxer, as a way of introducing the new Arms character
And I say that with Mac being one of my favourite characters (or he could make a comeback from being beaten in the Incineroar trailer, I guess)
@ABRAHAM DUNN Okay but that would be sick as fuck my dude, are you sure they would do something as cool as that
It would also totally make sense with the boxing theme
Spring man is Little Mac but with range and recovery. :V
@@Smeelio it also fits with little mac's character as he fights and defeats boxers literally twice his size through sheer willpower and star-punches
god we need a new punch out game with a ton of cameo fights
@@Crabgar
Please. My boy Little Mac has a hard life in smash, I still love him all the same.
You all thought that Marth’s grab range was long. Just you wait...
Boy, I sure can’t wait to get command grabbed from halfway across the stage.
@@adrianh.5038 Or tether grab
The one time Nintendo actually tells us something about the character is the one time people actually have no idea who it’s gonna be.
Also I hope it’s Ribbon Girl and she has grab range like melee Marth.
Alpha: “Do you really want Jiggly-Belmont?”
Me: *whispers to myself* “Yes”
You scare me
Oh God have mercy on us.

UwU Boi We might even get Chrom, too
"Arms is not fun"
I'm bummed you didn't have a great time with it, I think it was a blast.
I *kind of* agree with him, I just think he might've said it in not quite the right way. (Or he meant what he said idk.)
I think ARMS is fun. It just... gets old *REALLY* fast. The matches are a lot of the same. Punch, curve, jump, punch, curve, block a bit, grab a bit, "oh boy let's flail at high speeds to do a super that looks the same no matter who we play!"
And there isn't much else to do. Fight computers, fight online, fight offline. They tried with like... volleyball? But it's meh. Game has a solid concept, but not enough depth or variety.
its fun but the skill ceiling is way too low which causes it to be boring after like 5 hours
Well in some cases it lacks. For me the controls were really inaccurate and unresponsive which led to me having a quite high losing streak. Also, like alpharad said, the replayability just isn't there. Although the characters are nice.
@Gachi Gachi yeah so if you have good reflexes it gets boring really fast (at least for me) but if you like it then thats good for you
Yeah its strange that so many people underestimate the depth in it. Its so fun and has a ton of replayability with a huge amount of match ups due to glove combos. Plus everyone moves differently. Its actually an underrated masterpiece and just as fun as smash
My money is on Max Brass just cause he has some “plot” significance in the ARMS “story” and has been featured on title screen art as of late.
I’m rooting for helix because I think he would have a very unique move set
Hoping for Min Min or Mechanica; but it'd be a real dream to get Byte and Barq or Dr. Coyle
The Legion I feel like byte and Barq would be a new age rosalina and luma
I hoping its Lola Pop because honestly most of the male characters are just not it
It’s most likely gonna be max brass but I want it to be min min or dr.coyle

No.
Sakurai said that Fighters Pass 2 was completely decided when they filmed the Byleth video. That was NOVEMBER! Well before the pandemic! I'm pretty sure COVID-19 is not limiting the 3rd party characters. Because, again, all the negotiations would have already happened. Asking for permission and approving general movesets doesn't sound like something you do after you've officially stated in a video that all 6 characters were already decided.
Glad I'm not the only one who remembered this.
You are forgetting development though. Granted, i don't know what the dev studio looks like inside (and I'm assuming you don't either), but if its too small or there are too many people, you can bet that they will be delayed. I'm talking about the whole pass in general btw.
You also have to keep in mind that these third party companies supervise the characters. Nintendo was collaborating with Rare on Banjo's design. This could postpone characters entirely.
@@tajhill989 I agree with that. But my point is that it shouldn't be affecting 3rd party negotiations.
@@JackieFuckingChan Ok, sure. But how much of that collaboration was during the actual development? I imagine there are some, if not most of the important elements of their visual design, stage, music selection, moveset, and spirits that have to be approved up-front, before they get the full OK on the character. And once they do, all they would have to do is prove they're following those criteria. Although supervision mid-development might be somewhat affected by coronavirus, it's not like it would be impossible to do over email or skype
.
Regardless, the development of Fighter 6 would probably have already been on the timeline before Byleth dropped in January. And since the coronavirus pandemic was so early at that time, I can't really see any reason they wouldn't have started with a 3rd party if that was in the plans. But it apparently wasn't.
I'm just against the notion that Arms was their emergency backup character because of the virus, and that's why Fighter 6 isn't Dante or Crash.
Personally if I could pick 3 to be in, I would want Spring Man, Twintelle, and Min Min. Plus Twintelle vs Bayonetta would be very interesting. If you know then you know
Thicc women with hair as a weapon.
@@runedoom *cough* shantae *cough*
But ninjara...
I honestly think that they will announce that "surprise" we are adding in all the characters. Something like there is one character that is just called "Arms" and has the skins of all the fighters and they might even add in a new feature where different skins have like 1 or 2 moves different. Thats my opinion cause Smash has been adding in lots of new things that set these DLC characters apart from the rest mainly with things like arsene and hero's spells.
"Why would they add ARMS into the game?"
To advertise a new game or to introduce smash players to ARMS
True
whatever dontcare tf do u mean about new game literally nobody plays it no more! And if Nintendo wants to make more money than they should actually listen to the community
Son Ryan I just went online on ARMS and there’s plenty of people playing, just because you don’t play it doesn’t mean others dont, and ya Nintendo should listen to this cancerous fan base that asks for nothing but the same generic and boring picks, Smash already generates TONS of money, and they can add whoever the fuck they want.
But isn’t dlc about smash giving characters that the community wants..? I mean as long as I have joker I’m fine with whoever they add.
@@blui3609 If DLC was about what the community wanted, then Geno and Master Chief would already be in Smash. No, that's not how it works. How many people specifically asked for Piranha Plant?
2:50 This is basically what they did when Corrin was announced. That game wasn’t even out yet and they decided “Hey let’s promote this game in Smash!”
I believe Fire Emblem Fates was out in Japan before Corrin was announced for Smash. Don't quote me on that, though.
Hero's default skin was also from the new DragonQuest which hadn't released at the time Hero was announced.
Heavy Blues yes it was? It wasn’t out on switch but dq 11 was out on ps4, pc, and even 3ds in Japan when hero was announced
@@shanemiller1182 Was it? My bad. I must have gotten Switch release confused with title release.
Here’s what I think will happen: If springman gets in, they might replace the assist trophy with springtron. If ribbon girl gets in, I don’t really see any problem. The character I personally want is Min Min, but I’m still not sure if it will happen. If they include an arms dlc character, it would definitely be max brass. They may even pull a bowser junior on us and let us play as 8 different characters. I guess only time will tell.
Agreed with Genesiz.
Also with Ribbon Girl if her spirit in WoL then it's replaced with the fighter.
Ribbon Girl would be great because she's a Spirit. Now Shantae, Geno, Resident Evil, Daemon X Machina, Xenoblade 2, Xenoblade X, Astral Chain, any single spirit is now back in the game.
Genesiz helix... just helix
Min Min's kinda THICC

3:29 They announced during the Nintendo direct January 16, 2020 that all fighters in fighter pass 2 was already decided. So the reasoning of the pandemic affecting the fighter choice is false.
That being said, I'm open to the idea of using the pass to either promote new Nintendo games, or continued support for third party. Right now most of the series in Smash are well represented and I feel this could help bring life back to some forgotten games or help boost games that might go over looked.
I thank you for reading this comment, and hope you all stay safe in these hard times.

*Megalovania’s intensity intensifies*
Alpharad, you gotta remember that they wanted to put an ARMS character into the game right at the start, but they couldn't due to the same reason as why Rex from xenoblade isn't in, that being that the games were released to far into ultimates development to include them. They also decided on all the vol. 1 fighter pass characters at the same time as when they released the game.
However, the 2nd fighter pass wasn't planned at the start, and thus, the most likely reason an arms character is in fighter pass 2 is simply because they couldn't put one in the base game or fighter pass 1
while it's very likely the 2nd fighter pass wasn't planned at the start, I don't know if it was confirmed.
Well explain Byleth
Your statement doesn't make sense as byleth was create 2 years afters Arms
@@Jcomprendrien > They also decided on all the vol. 1 fighter pass characters at the same time as when they released the game.

Aww, I actually really enjoyed arms... when it was one of only three games on the switch. Haven't touched it since, but it was fun!
An ARMS character wasn't in the base roster because ARMS was revealed too late, the same reason why Rex and Pyra aren't in the base roster. Sakurai began working on Smash Ultimate right after Bayonetta was released for Smash 4, and couldn't just add in Rex and an ARMS character, which is why they were only added as Assist Trophies and Mii costumes.

They should've put up-tilt as up-air and use it as a helicopter recovery xDDD
They could’ve made it better by being a command input just like the games
Down-> Up-> Jump(probably replace with B)
Chaotic evik
Well, to be fair, i do think characters with tether recoveries shoudn't be put into free fall after using up-b. Like with Byleth, any special will not put you into free fall. Apply that to chars that need up-b to side-b recoveries like the Star Fox chars, Ike, etc or to tether chars like Belmons, Links, Samus, etc.
Imagine not having a good range and tether.
This post was made by the Belmont and Byleth gang.
You know what interesting mechanic they could do? They could make the A button the faster arm, and the B button the stronger special arm.
Also, Min Min for the Win Win, please have her In In.
Good news...
my dude had the third eye open for that one
This aged REEEEAAAALLLLYYYY! REALLY!!! Well!
How the fuck
You basically predicted Min Min and (kind of) her moves.
Alpharad: ARMS isn't fun
Mr. Yabuki: *So you have chosen… death*
"Adding first party characters just makes sense now" but aren't all the DLC fighters already established? They don't need to get rights to anything anymore and even if adding third party characters to the game becomes an issues, it's too late to turn back, the fighters have been chosen.
I don't see the point of this comment
Oh, Sakurai said that he still needs to get in touch with the publishers to add third party characters.
@@shadedepeche2556 I think they already got the confirmation to add those characters, but Sakurai probably wants to met them in person to discuss details. Who really knows but Nintendo. I just expect some third party characters to still make it, but it's just gonna be more difficult while developing them
"I can't wait to get F-smashed from across the entire stage."
I'd like to introduce you to this new character. We call them Byleth.
I get the joke but... no.
Sonic F smash hit from further tho
Belmont F smash
Byleth with more range
Corrin did it first
The virus is probably a big reason why this announcement was so strange. It kinda has to be, right?
PurpleFreezer maybe, but more likely they’ve learnt what the childish smash fanbase does when left in the dark for long periods of time, and now that many of that group are stuck inside going stir crazy, by throwing out “it’ll be a ARMS fighter” but not actually announcing who it stops the assholes spamming their and sakurais twitter accounts about “WHERES FIGHTER 6 NEWS”

I feel like there’s gonna he multiple variations, so it doesn’t matter.
Like Bowser Jr.
I guess they can do that but it'd be the equivalent of Lucas and Ness back when they where basically the same. Same moveset but none of the moves are theirs.
You must be fun at parties.
To be fair, most of their moves are in the gloves, though they do have unique quirks shared between them.
NOO YOU CAN’T ADD AN ARMS CHARACTER IN SMASH YOU COULDVE ADD DOOMGUY
haha boiyoing
We have isabelle tho. Close enough
Or Dante... still waiting for this party to get crazy.
MK11 would be better for Doom Guy. Nintendo would censor the hell outta him like Bayonetta and Solid Snake.
dasani water bottle
i mean 5 more slots still open
@PolySaken
Gory kills are part of the package. The ultra violence is a staple of the character. You'd be neutering him at that point. I'd rather not have him at all than be made acceptable for the kids. MK11 fits him far more anyhow.

"And these other characters are spirits so if they get in the game that opens the doors for thousands of other characters!"
Shows the 'Snake's box'
Yes! Make BOX a character Nintendo!
Ness' dad for Fighter Pass 2?
Max Brass doesn't have a spirit... IS IT GONNA BE MAX BRASS!?
Blue fire face for dlc
Make chest with legs a character as well
@James Mercier I mean he has the highest chance of getting it in if sakurai didn’t lie about spirits not being fighters... also he has a lot of the plot and story going for him and is probably the most well known out of the dlcs in arms. Yea I’m almost 90% sure it’s him because in my opinion helix just isn’t it and kid cobra mechanica the other dlcs (except maybe dr.coyle) and (hopefully) master mummy DEFINITELY arent it.(pls don’t add a character with a healing shield)
People need to stop contemplating the "why" with DLC picks. Fans have come up with so many "rules" and "guidelines" to try and understand picks but there is nothing universal. Sakauri said in the Terry direct that what's important to him is that a character is fun to play, not necessarily hugely recognizable.
Thank you!
Yes, the fans just need to understand it's all up to what Sakurai feels. He doesn't even follow his own restrictions from previous games.
The smash community gets way too hyped up on their theories and assumptions. People need to learn to chill and just be patient to see what characters come.
@@carrot8736 That and Nintendo has already chosen the dlc. Sakurai has no influence on who is chosen. He just programs their movesets.
I've reasoned logically that the most likely characters are Ribbon Girl, Min Min, and Helix. Based on Moveset potential, fun factor in playing and fighting, interest, and popularity.
Yeah, I'm in the Helix camp. He's so goofy, I love it.
How about Springton?
I'm rooting for my girl Lola Pop even though there's no way it'll be her.
@@cryosen i want it to be lola pop so bad
Goop all the way baby
> talks about assist trophies becoming a character
> did not mention lyn
seems like an un-alpharad thing to do
robin ksuo it’s possible I mean look at little Mac
He showed Lyn on-screen as he started to say that.
Subtle, but it works.
3:25 all the dlc characters were decided before the pandemic started so i doubt it
Stormfire152 The pandemic was a part of Nintendo’s plan.
@Sakura Nintendo’s plan to announce the grinch
"some of the sickest designs nintendo has ever released"
jacob, we all know youre talking about twintelle
some of the THICKEST designs nintendo has ever released
I feel like they're just going to do a Bowser JR style thing where the make the alts entirely different characters with the same moveset
All the larger characters probably wouldn't happen cuz it would mess with the hurt boxes
The hitbox differences, and the loss of character gimmicks ensures that this wouldn't happen. Smash's character designs are super detailed to the character, so having Ribbon Girl without quad jump, Mechanica's hover, Master Mummy's super armor, or especially Barq would be really a huge fail to those characters.
@@electronsympathy I stated this in my comment as well so thank you for adding onto it :)
@@electronsympathy " loss of character gimmicks ensures that this wouldn't happen." I mean, we just had a character take all the staple weapons of the 3 main characters in their game and fight with them in equal parts AND also ignore their own gimmick that would have been a logical counter/ witch time move.
The thing about an ARMs rep is that one way or another it's gonna have to be a thing they had to think outside of the box on so taking a handful of characters that are around the same size and fusing their gimmicks into something that could work for smash seems like just as good of an idea as any.
I feel like it's gonna be Helix cause he: He a Boppy Boi
yeah I'm pretty much split between helix and min-min just because min min kind of already has a little more moveset potential for air attacks with her flip kicks, but helix just kind of allows for a lot of creativity in general and that may prove to be more valuable.
but ultimately I just don't know if a non-main-character can get into smash before a main character. often I think they sacrifice potential for great creative characters because they feel they need to put the main character in first to represent a new series that isn't already represented by a character.
Helix would be a neat addition ngl
Remember people shitting on Byleth that ended up being a quite unique character? The ip of the character doesnt really matter, the implementation does.
But we don't wanted another weebo character.
Heh...poor banjo, they did him wrong in this game XD
@@bsjdnei9879 implementation matters way more. The "wow a character from that game" factor lasts much less than a "the character is really unique and interesting to play".
What are you talking about byleth is wack
“Today we are adding Dante to both Smash *and* ARMS.”
I feel like it's gonna be none of them and they'll announce arms 2 with a new character or just a new character for arms
“Mii costumes can get in!”
“These characters are spirits, and if they can get in the game, then this just opens the door for thousands of other characters!”
Me: **Cheers in Viridi.**
I support viridi too!
Me four!
Finally, people of culture
I'd be super surprised if Viridi got in. It would be Byleth all over again with how everybody would hate it despite it being kinda cool, so I don't see her as likely. I wouldn't say no to best goddess tho
Viridi is already a stage hazard lol
"wasn't fun" (for you). I love ARMS' gameplay and think it has a surprising amount of technical depth and mindgames.
I hope it's ribbon girl. Do I want "jiggly Belmont?" Yes
"Then assist trophies can become characters."
Waluigi: So you're telling me there's a chance.
Dont do that, dont give me hope again yet again
@@Dz73zxxx yes
omg let waluigi DIE
No. Please for the love of all that is holy and unholy do not put that idea into the minds of the fucking lima bean brain idiots who will harass Sakurai

"Then assist trophies can become characters."
I know you thought of Lyn, Alpha
Don't lie to your heart....We want her too..
If not for Byleth, I can't handle another FE.
The smash community can’t handle another FE
Actually, on second thought, they can’t handle ANY FE after what we saw with the last two FE newcomers

*King K. Rool and Chrom laughs hysterically*
So true
Don't forget Isabella.
I saw someone saying "ARMS is a waste of a slot because they should have been part of the main roster" which...I found to be a weird argument?
They shouldn't be in the game now because they weren't in the game from the start? People are UPSET about that? If you wanted them in the beginning, but not now, what's the difference?
The way i see it, the DLC characters generate so much hype for smash that Nintendo is using one of those precious DLC slots on a character nobody gives a shit about. It'd be like them adding byleth to the game, if Fire emblem three houses sucked and nobody liked it. At least that's how I view it.
That you have to pay for it, that is the difference xd
NOSE
yeah lol people get foolish about this stuff. Arms is expected just like Inkling and their moveset is (hopefully) gonna be great. I'm pretty decent with Arms and i'm looking forward to this
I think their argument is that it's such a milquetoast addition that paying for it feels lame. Like imagine if Luigi was DLC.
Now they cost money
ribbon girl has 4 jumps and disjoints
"jiggly belmont"
im a puff main i need this
So faster dedede
@@residentfacehead3465 na jiggly actually got good jumps
And she would also have a tether Recovery with her ARMs so
*she would be as/or even MORE undefeatable than Brawl Meta Knight*
imagine having an actual recovery move.
Weak - jigglypuff main
Arms is one of those games that you have to understand the deeper mechanics of to have a lot of fun with, such as cancels, parries, combos, etc. The Arms Study Lab channel has some good videos about them.
About 3rd party being more difficult to develop because of what's going on, Sakurai said back in the Byleth presentation that all the characters had been decided already, and that was recorded last year
I'd guess that's why Arms got a character since Nintendo thought it was doing well back then. Poor guys
I don't think they just get to do the character free willy nilly though, they probably have meetings about the character every so often or after a certain point in development with the company that owns the rights, which maybe they can't do currently.
