Allow me to more concisely illustrate my initial point, since can't pick up on context
Several hundred absolute gays spamming votes with multiple IP addresses are the likely culprits
Sora WAS cool but the final few games just made him and his franchise 'meh'. But in the end, he probably is the best choice for the final character for a massive crossover game like Smash.
I'm not a Kingdom Hearts fan but my main issue with Sora was that I saw him as a Final Fantasy/Disney crossover character who would only be able to reference one half of the crossover.
My big hope was that they would make Master Hand a real character that could be used in Stamina battles but I knew it would never happen.
Kind of "meh" to me, but that's still far better than the anger inducing FP1 finale of Byleth or the disappointing base game finale of... shit, just that entire Direct in general.
Probably for the best since whoever they add is just going to be a BotW or TotK character. It's ironic that my main used to always be adult Link, but I had to switch to Young Link since they completely changed the way adult Link plays in the "everybody is here title".
It was a pretty good finale, character from a crossover game joins a crossover fighter. Nintendo is 100% going to try and bring it back with another season pass after MK8D gets its last update though. They need something to add to the expansion pass, and nobody really actually cares about Splatoon.
didn't feel as monumental as Sonic or Megaman, idk maybe Smash got old
Sora really was underwhelming they should've ended it with Steve instead I guess
Nobody plays or remembers any of the third party never evers. Sora, Sephiroth, Steve, Terry - all totally irrelevant and forgotten. Turns out people wanted mascots (Pac-Man, Banjo, etc.) and Nintendo characters, which is all the roster should have been in the first place.
People realized the only thing that made Sora "unique" or interesting was the stark contrast between anime and Disney characters.
Without them, Sora's just an incredibly generic "power of friendship" anime MC.
I just wish I had played Banjo-Kazooie, FF7, Kingdom Hearts (I actually played after Sora was revealed and I really enjoyed it) or Fatal Fury/KoF. That way I would have liked the reveals a little bit more.
Sora was underwhelming and theres no concrete proof other than take their word for it which is historically questionable >Bayo won >Ridley too big >Villager can't fight
Sora was a bad pick because he was missing the Disney part of his character. No Donald, no Goofy, no Micky, why even have him at that point? Should have been someone else since they were missing 50% of his appeal. Didn't even have his Hikaru Utada music. A total bust.
The problem with Sora is that he is roo NICE, to the point that he is fricking boring (he forgive Xenahort after he LITERALLY killed his waifu, I don't care about the bullshit "power of awakening", Sora should have gone mad). At least with him in they could add the more interesting and complex Roxas in the next smash.
Nintendo's mistake was just letting any fricker on the internet vote in the ballots. It should've been restricted only to people on a switch, it just ended up being a popularity contest among people who never touched a smash game in their life. I seriously doubt there are lot of people that actually play smash that cared about Kingdom Hearts or Sora.

Brawl was probably the best time for him a a guest, he feels a bit dated although the memories last, I would love Bomberman with fond memories of Bomberman in the N64 days but he hasn't been that relevant
I just remember seeing a bunch of Symphonia fans gunning for him to make it on a Smash forum a while back. It was really impressive how autistic they were about seeing their guy finally make it. Realistically, I think his chance is long gone, as you say (unless Symphonia gets a proper Remake someday), but it was interesting seeing how desperately his fans were clinging onto the hope of him getting in while insisting he's definitely still relevant.
he got a mii costume atleast, frankly some would be annoyed but is moreso the timing a again
theres been an influx of animeish sword fighters in the game lately and Lloyd is another
but at very least he is clearly different at a glance by using 2 swords instead of one which
oddly no one else does, sorta Pit but not really, along with infusing each sword with a different
element, he'd win over a lot by his style alone like Terry, as someone who never played ToS
Sora is cool. They probably just want Birdo or something gay.
theres nothing gayer than Kingdom Hearts
i dunno man still seething years later about an irrelevant game is pretty fricking gay
Persona
And that got a rep before a persona game being in a nintendo anything.
Persona had two 3DS games back then at the time.
Did it?
Oooh yeah, Persona Q. Nevermind then.
Persona is still gay though.
Joker was the moment when Smash Bros turned (more) into Sakurai playing with his action figures
you're right, both can frick off
Birdo would be better than Sora.
And she wouldn't be instantly forgotten like Sora was.
>she
YJK there was KH autists spamming votes for him
Vocal minority won again and it sucks so much
>character wins poll because people voted for them
Where would we be without your brains, anon?

Sakurai was definitely counting in binary so that he could give fans the middle finger. He needs to frick off with his FE fanboyism.
He's gonna add 2 more of them next game and Zelda will still have nothing more than variants of Link, Zelda and Ganon.
Probably for the best since whoever they add is just going to be a BotW or TotK character. It's ironic that my main used to always be adult Link, but I had to switch to Young Link since they completely changed the way adult Link plays in the "everybody is here title".
imagine if they make like smash 4 and add 4 zelda guys out of nowhere like Skullkid, Impa, Midna and Tetra

yeah, plus he's really, really gay
have a nice day gay Black person
Sora isn't black
HE WILL GET IN, JUST YOU WAIT!
I just wish I had played Banjo-Kazooie, FF7, Kingdom Hearts (I actually played after Sora was revealed and I really enjoyed it) or Fatal Fury/KoF. That way I would have liked the reveals a little bit more.
wow
What is there to argue about. Sora was the most voted character in the ballot. Sora was deemed the "impossible" pick.
Sora was underwhelming and theres no concrete proof other than take their word for it which is historically questionable
>Bayo won
>Ridley too big
>Villager can't fight

That's not his character, those are other characters. You're fricking moronic
Donald and Goofy are not half of his appeal you literal child.
he appeals to gay homies
Shit that never happened article.
dude is seething about twitter posts
The problem with Sora is that he is roo NICE, to the point that he is fricking boring (he forgive Xenahort after he LITERALLY killed his waifu, I don't care about the bullshit "power of awakening", Sora should have gone mad).

Sora didn’t forgive Xehanort you moron. He merked him and told him to suck his delusions of grandeur up.
smash is a shit game for homosexuals
no one cares
>smash is a shit game for homosexuals
>no one cares
Go back to bed, Eric.
The problem with Sora is that Smash fans are the biggest gayots on the face of the earth and I hope Sakuria continues to spit in their face.

It should've been restricted only to people on a switch, it just ended up being a popularity contest among people who never touched a smash game in their life.

fair point
characters that would've been a better closer
>Steve
>Banjo
>K Rool
>Ridley
for those that were not in Smash Bros
>Crash
>Goku
>Master Chief
>Doom Guy
>Paper Mario
>Rayman
>Isaac
>Waluigi
>Eggman
>Master Hand Jr
anything could've been better than Sora, it was bad enough when Persona and Undertalegays were invited
Please shower
I shower with your mom
wait you have to pay to play the extra characters? it's not free???
yeah is crazy how you can pay full price for a videogame and not get all of its content
>adds a JRPG Swordie and Another and an FGC guy in 4
>adds a JRPG Swordie and another and a FGC guy in FP1
>adds a JRPG swordie and another and a FGC guy in FP2
when will it stop?
Should he have gotten in?
