@NintendoAmerica If it is Arle, Hollow Knight, Reimu, Freddy Fazbear or a retro 1st party I would be in joy If it is some overrated fighter request such as Shantae, Doomslayer, Crash, or Rayman I would do a facepalm PLZ :3

Alright watch this everybody, I'm getting one of these today. Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the dragon, Sora, and another Nintendo representative will be the final fighters in the fighters pass 2. I'm not sure which characters for mii costumes but probably 3-4 characters from in game...

@NintendoAmerica Going to guess its Crash

Ruby can't think of a clever holiday pun!
(@RubysArt_) reported
@Zari_Wari @NintendoAmerica It doesn't require modifying the game in any way, which was most likely most of the problem.

@NintendoAmerica Better be ray man or crash. Also I didn’t forget about the Etika joycon **** you pulled. Disrespectful of our boy.

@CrimsonZEXAL @NintendoAmerica lol crash would be my second guess but i hope its sora it would be perfect his moveset would be so cool :0 (crash's moveset would be rlly basic tbh)

(@HORPTyler) reported
@_MissClick_ It’s either a third party character or a Nintendo character that’s really popular. My guess is either Lara Croft, Crash, or Toxtricity

Instead making dlc fighters they should just fix online, that’s the only thing they can reveal to get me hype, or maybe a Nintendo will stop being **** wads reveal.

@NintendoUK I think our remaining characters will be Crash Bandicoot, Rex & Pyra, Doomguy and Geno (in that order) so that would make my prediction for tonight Crash Bandicoot. I guess we'll see...

@heyo_KazeTS But that’s not really the point. Like one of The biggest things is how **** they’ve been to the community and our enjoyment of the game so I don’t see what not buying the character does. The problem isn’t with the games themselves it’s with the cooperate aspect if Nintendo

@NintendoAmerica Honestly guys we don’t really need Crash, I may not know much about him but I feel like he’s not a diverse enough character to have a good moveset, he’d really just be another Sonic/Incineroar character and we do not need anymore of those

@NintendoAmerica If it’s crash bandicoot I will live stream a video of myself eating bread (I have celiacs so this would be a huge deal)

@IzahrkTweetz @nintendodiirect The problem is that support and sales is what allows nintendo to get away with their issues As much as you may like this dlc, the only way to not allow nintendo to get away with their decisions is to pirate ir or at the very least not buying it

Spore, back on his bullshit
(@SporePunch) reported
@NintendoAmerica A character that no one will be able to play because we don't have good online and you C&D events that use good online. Fix the netcode, please, and #FreeMelee For the love of god, take a page out of the book of Valve or Sega or most other devs and appreciate fan work.

Great! The control stick on my switch light is completely broken. It can't go down anymore even after recalibrating. @NintendoAmerica this lack of quality controll with the joysticks is outrageous. Now my switch light is unusable and getting it repaired would likely take forever;
