Since this game is basically an enhanced version of past Party games, high chance will be it's the same roster with Super Mario Party but with Birdo the returnee, and some newcomers hopefully. Curious, can Dry Bowser and Koopalings take the respective roles?

While in active sense, she should be playable, in the passive aspect my concern is like whether we get some really giant newcomers as replacement. (returnees not counted) for people to think this isn't too bad. Interestingly, we can't have Kamek, King Boo and King Bob-omb in the Party roster, so...

when other characters are also in Smash, we need more than that.

I hate to say it but KRool can't be counted if he still can't be in any Mario spinoff for NS.

At this point? Don't think so. If the Club characters do return, I think they'd be base game unlockables as their major task is to paticipate in the Story mode, and so far no reveals mention that. Unless Nintendo suddenly feel that the lack of Club characters is a mistake, I don't think they'd...

Thanx for info. But looks like it's counted an enemy species, which Nintendo don't mind reusing in RPGs. Uhm... really? Pauline's formal return was Mini March from late 2006... then her official first Mario allstars sport game debut was 2018. It's hard to say she owns any advantage. She had...

Well, Paper Mario was acknowledged in Paper Jam, and in M&L stories they also met the babies. If that canon is acknowledged then I think it wouldn't be a problem. Of course we may discuss technical matters like how to implement a 2D character in 3D games. Like said, protagonist alterego is part...

Is that a reference? Canonically we have Silver Luigi from NSMB2. I also noted that in another edit above. But Pink Gold Peach seems to have a higher possibility, I don't think we'd easily see Silver Luigi in a medium size roster I feel like both would come true in Mario Kart Tour. I think...

Yeah I see no official portrait of her casual look so it has to be photoshopped. Her sunglasses suits the outdoor activity better. Now here is the problem: fans and Nintendo have major cognitive difference regarding to fanservice.

Sonic was just a big hot giant mess when it comes to media adaption. While its main video game works in line, all different adaptions basically just conflict with each other. I agree that the Archie comic needed a reboot that sticks to the main video game canon, just I disagree with the removal...

Why do I feel regret?

Sure but: I'm always not so sure about the "DK can have a buddy but Wario doesn't need to" mindset. Or should say in the whole Switch era we haven't seen too many really giant newcomer for Mario spinoffs. Most noteworthy cases like EGadd, Wario main cast and KRool are still commonly absent...

if babies are hated because of alterego identities, characters with baby/toddler shape like Ashley, Sprixie and Nabbit should have better priority. Just in this case its more a matter of choices.

Didn't expect, but duh, no Gene. Depends. I feel like DLCs better use surprising welcomed newcomers, like Hellen and Willow, over obviously absent main cast.

In the case of Smash bros it isn't obliged to introduce more of 3rd party series, as far as I know. And people who bought Smash 5 were already aware of Final Fantasy since it's not unpresented like Octopath. On the other hand not having other contents is just the companies' issues. If they...

Fine as individual isn't a garuntee for fit, I think. Like I love ice cream but I don't pick it for dinner. I think the arguable part is denying other Square contents are iconic enough for their own history. And to FF fans in general they'd want something else to be presented to show different...

Platformers tho. The thing is RPGs can provide a proper story scenario to explain the partnership. As for platformers, it'd be two different troops on the same screen (imagine fighting a kremling and a paratroopa at one time) If Nintendo want to go with simple gameplay, they might not really...

Well Birdo stays, the core concept of multiple playable characters also came from there. If NIntendo is willing to use it as referenes, I do think they can do more. I think if Bowser isn't going to team up with other currently active villains like Wario, KRool, King Boo and King Bob-omb, the...

Interesting... fans used to complain that Nintendo don't listen to fan demand, now they actually do alot in Ultimate, fans rather think this game isn't official enough.

I'd say canon isn't the biggest matter, it'd be more direct to think "who this is". (yes, we got Nabbit who came out from random, but arguably DKJr wasn't made to be in that kind of role) Before official announcement. it was based on the official name of the counterpart in DMW. I'm netural...

To simplify, yeah, that saying works. The best would be like how M&L explained babies and Paper Mario. Strangely that series even did some important things other "main titles" never managed to do. I agre with 8-bit given, Paper Mario for Kart isn't out of blue.

Like said, canonical factors are legit enough for him to be unable to return. I don't think fans have been complaining like "NIntendo should had made him return, they don't have proper excuse!!" when other one-off key characters like Wart and Wizpig don't have such issue. In the case of...

Or maybe with 3D Land levels so that it would be a more comprehensive title. Hope that the full reveal can hype bored fans.

My personal dream would be: Adding 3D Land stages to 3D World as a whole. Make two Galaxy titles in its own one with new stages, not being a collection along with other games, unless the capacity is enough. Make 64 DS be an alternative mode along with the original version, expand more...

Yeah, it could be kinda misleading to mention Peachette, but I wanted to highlgiht "brand new characters". And still, if Nintendo cannot make Mario games acknowledge everything happened under its franchise but different teams must conflict with each other, I think that's not just dissapointing...

Yeah, that's the likely outcome, also the least welcomed one. It's sad if Nintendo managed to push something "if you didn't get WiiU don't miss those games on it" rather than "even WiiU owners would want these".

Well yeah, no new title or project seems a bit let down. If the ports don't have many new things, itd be even worse.

Yeah, I also feel confused its not a 64 DS port, so it's unpleasant to not see the merits from that version for now. I didn't expect any new expansion, but 64 DS was the best opportunity for Waluigi.

In a different view, NSMBUDX and also Tropical Freeze pretty much spoiled fans in a way they'd raise the bar for future ports. I feel like if they couldn't expand every part it could be a let down. (I do admit my signature pic is a really high bar, tho. The focus on Bowser feels like a hint on...

大入＝Big in＝Want many people to come to this place 祭＝Festival －－－－－ To my curiosity, did this game think about advertising with very new characters within this year? The newest addition we got was Peachette. In this year we got LM3 and Origami King. It feels like Hellen and Olivia would be a...

Either go with Sonic Riders plot or just bring back Wizpig.

I'm aware that the title and context have perfectly excluded Pauline from this topic. Well to be fair, Odyssey locates in the city where Pauline belongs to, so I cannot say "she doesn't represent Odyssey". Just this topic is also about promoting some new faces to this franchise. Yeah, either...

I'm now referring to cases like Nabbit (from NSMBU to MGWT) and Sprixie Princess (from SM3DW to MTO). May arguably count Honey Queen (from SMG to MK7) despite she appeared in two SMG titles. I feel like something is weirdly missing from recent spinoffs, and it shows that we don't have new...

I personally believe it's a matter of decision making. When making the decision you'd have to have a very clear vision about whether the next character is from 1st or 3rd party, a new or old series, what is the priorty. You'd definitely eliminate the other side of options when you already enter...

When people think Smash bros should provide chances to popular 3rd party characters whose franchises already nominate Smash bros, this always make me wonder how do the failed NIntendo allstars make the way out. To clarify, this example doesn't indicate specific comparison between certain...

Samus likes fried rice, nice.

If they won't change the roster again, sorry to fans who really like it, I'd be relieved to know that we won't have more M&S titles.

I mean, if different fighting styles can be ignored easily, Puch-Out would be the very prior choice that should do a fighter with seven alts.

Well we blame Nintendo, not just him, so there is no problem. I appreciate his work for Byleth, but that doesn't mean it can cease the argument about his/her timing of addition. Not saying that FE3H cannot be advertised. Question could be why some other recent stellar games don't get the...

Borrowing a statement from some other place, it'd be pointless to hide the fact they want to pick a cover boy with a guessing game, which just wastes fans time for waiting. Of course, I don't say this is a 100% proof they'd choose the first ever fighter that isn't a cover model. I don't think...

Yeah, in early years Switch has been like recycling the short-lived WiiU games. Not saying it can't happen but maybe next console where it serves as the first Mario 3D & remaster there. For now I'd rather like to see a new SM3DW title with new theme&story. Maybe a Paper Mario Allstars game...

I mean, it's not like other Mario console titles don't have to raise their sales. So same inclusion can benefit them as well. I wouldn't agree "big is good". I see MK9 sure needs to have a bigger roster than MK8DX, I would think "quality" is what newcomers in Mario spinoffs often lack in past...

I think the difference between Smash community and (Paper) Mario fanbase is that the latter sticks to just one universe and canon so that they understand it well, while the former consists of fanbases of different franchises and their opinions can hardly be organized. Such as "Waluigi should be...

At this point it's really hard to compare mobile apps to traditional console titles. If anything, what matters would be how many DLCs MK9 is willing to do. MK8/MK8DX loses simply because it didn't have long period of DLC plans. I guess we won't have costumes return in MK9 (depends on whether...

I mean, just like M&L titles, these series continue because there are passionate core fans. It'd be nice to give some notable tributes to early titles and fanservice. The later PM titles, aside from new enemies and aids: are just a pure "typical Super Mario in a different artwork", that's a big...

According to the history (MK Arcade, Super Sluggers}, a Wario-themed event and course might not ensure any big new entry, so I don't give high hope. Well, I can endure Wario-Man costume which is just a little salt to the current situation. It'd be a really huge revolution for NIntendo to add...

I don't want to set high standard, but Dixie in MK is just as belated as Pauline. I'd wish both and KRool to be in MK 7 or 8. Newer games probably better work on very new additions like Nabbit or Hellen. Maybe Toadsworth's turn, if they don't mind to do costumy Toad...

It'd be like Cappy from Odyssey, there is a clear reason why you're not allowed to transform into T-Rex when fighting against Bowser. I think recuriting bosses is possible only if they wouldn't be too OP, but just be as strong as regular partners with some special abilities. That reminds me...

Yeah, the Japnese intro does say "farewell", which makes me think it won't be how the first two PM worked. Since we are accompanied by armies sometimes, I doubt we can call them anytime, that sounds very cheating. They're obvious exclusive to certain events.

Problem is being reconizeable with unique design is objectively known as an advantage for a gaming character. The new bob-omb might have own personality, but wouldn't think NIntendo mean to pay as much effort as they did to Admiral Bobbery. After all, looking back to Odyssey, LM3 and SMM2...
