I did not expect this huge level of delusion coming from Shantae fans, people severly overestimate her, her game were never huge hits and there are dozens of more iconic Indie characters. Even quality wise her games are 6/10 at best, well animated but overpriced and short, with very shallow transformations.

I feel Shantae got the "waluigi syndrome", where she is becoming more well known as "that character nobody shuts ups about" than for her actual games.

Just remember that the next info dump of Ultimate is going to cause round 3 of autistic screeching. And it's going to be hilarious knowing how predictably spoiled & delusional fanboys continue to be.

It's kinda funny, i remember when many Nintendofans were really smug about Bayonetta 2 being a Wii U exclusive, and yet many of those same fans were upset because she was included in Smash as a playable character

False, people were upset when she turned out to be a grossly overpowered character to an extent that you literally can't win against an average Bayonetta player using any other character.
Her inclusion had a lot of people happy and would have continued to be well received were she properly balanced. But Sakurai just wanted to pay homage to the Bayonetta series by making her the only character that can combo you out of the ceiling, and in the process disregarded anything else.

Sakurai is gonna nerf her before the game comes out, but I don't think that will make these spergs happy.

Only the first and third game were good in my opinion.

The second game was rushed and 1/2 Genie Hero was underveloped and, from what I saw, relied on periodic content updates rather than having a complete and fleshed out game.
 
I got a Shantae game in a Humble Bundle for 3DS. It did not hold my interest. I found the main character to sit in a strange middle ground between sexy female and children’s cartoon. This is a character made for 11-14 year old boys and that’s about it.

It's always funny seeing stupid Smash fans falling for obvious clickbait.

I mean half of it is that it's just fun to speculate and make shit up and hope for it. When people start getting seriously and actually butthurt over it, that's when it becomes stupid.

I made a post on a different forum talking about hoping Geno gets in the game, not because I like him or even have played Mario RPG, but because I think he could be an interesting and unique character.

As for Shantae, yeah the only reason I was ever even interested in the game was when it was out on the 3DS and people were like "Woah this is a decent game you should check out, the original game is super rare but fun and this one is too!" But it never managed to actually get me to want to play it or care about it. Outside of the whole "this is a niche indie game" in a time when Nintendo wasnt very supportive of allowing indie and small developer titles onto their system, making it kind of an anomaly, it's basically just another, decent indie platformer but it's nothing special.

Honestly wasnt Viewtiful Joe in a fighting game at one point? Some sort of Capcom Vs. game? Because I think they should bring him back for Smash. I remember watching one dude talking about the Smash direct a while back and he wondered if there would ever be another Captain Falcon-type character, because every other character in the game has a sort of analogue in some way - a character that's a lot like them or from the same franchise but different. I know Ganondorf was the sort of Falcon-type character in Brawl, but I'd like to see Viewtiful Joe come in.

Or hell, bring in another F Zero character. Wasnt there some big burly square looking character with those stereotypical tiny round Japanese glasses and he had like a katana or something, for maximum weeb value? I looked it up, apparently it's Samurai Goroh. And apparently he's already in the game as an assist. I dont understand why they couldnt later make some assist trophies into real characters in other games. The Goroh dude looks like he would be an interesting character if you made sort of a hybrid of the average sword-user-character and then a heavy physical character, instead of mostly using the sword.

Also yeah bring in Advance Wars characters. Some of the Advance Wars characters would make good assist trophies. You could have little army men marching across the stage firing bullets, or get one of the CO characters that implements one of their super powers like weather effects or fog of war, or healing your dude and making his attacks stronger or something.

Viewtiful Joe had his own smash-alike party fighter in the GC/PS2 era. It was pretty fun too.

Also Geno would be fun but square’s super weird about Mario RPG in regards to licensing. I’d be all for it though because I’d love to hear some of the music in that game get the smash orchestration treatment. How would his moveset even work beyond him being a projectile spammer, though? Maybe bring in Mallow instead for his weird stretchy arms melee attacks and weather control powers.
 
Why would these spergs want Shantae to begin with? Isn't she another anime swords(wo)man?

Little Mac himself started as an Assist Trophy back in Brawl, so there is a precedent for that. I do agree that Goroh would make an interesting character, and would definitely fit especially since they've been playing up the whole good guys and bad guys thing in the last couple of trailers.

Of course you'd get spergs whining about another sword character though.

Actually, they have Infantry and Tanks as an assist trophy.

Imagine the amount of chaos a Sasha assist would cause in Coin Battle.
 
So Nintendo had an Indies direct...

The chat was alll "WHURES SMASH!?!!?" and "SHANTAE FOR SMASH!"

SHows you how simple minded Smash fags are.

So according to smash tards, if Nintendo is doing one of their Directs that they do on a monthly basis, then it MUST involve Smash Bros. in some way.
Do these people even play anything beyond Smash?

Nope.

They only play Pokemon or Smash.

I think they're in that mindset that Nintendo will sneakily have a Smash announcement because Smash 5 was a surprise reveal at the end of a marginally unrelated Direct.

However, every Direct involving Smash content has either been entirely dedicated to Smash, or announced ahead of time to have Smash content. Why? Because Nintendo knows it draws in viewers for advertising and they obviously can't lie about it. There's no reason for them to sneak in a Smash announcement without waving it around like one of those inflatable tube men.
