I'll miss him. Anyone else?
Let him rest.
>Even Sakurai didn't want anything to do with MGS after V
Makes sense.

that guy always keep you waiting

Snake won the ballot, but Konami didn't allow it.
Blame Konami.
Next smash MAYBE.
>>320303760
Snake in peace, my friend
>Snake..? Snake?! SNAAAAAAAKE?!?!?!
I love this so much
>>320304329
Didn't Sakurai said this would be the last Smash?
>Snake..? Snake?! SNAAAAAAAKE?!?!?!
>last online 615 days ago
Good luck, you wonderful bastard
I just want Sakurai to say something explicitly about him. They've pretty much cut loose on adding third party stuff but he hasn't said so much of a word about Snake. He talked about Ice Climbers, why not Snake. I just need to know for sure he tried. He did try at least, right?

All he said was that he never considered him and he was not on his mind when making the roster.
He hasn't been in touch with Kojima either.
deep down I knew he wouldn't get back in, but man I can't help but feel depressed knowing that this is it.
guess I can hope for him in smash nx in 2020 when im in my thirties...
>>320304951
He never said that, that was one site reporting that some source close to Kojima said it - and they've since deleted that article.
>Let him rest
What do you mean? Kojima and Konami are working on a new game right now, unless something has changed and I haven't heard about it.
>>320304583
He said that about Melee and Brawl too. But Iwata kept asking him to make the next one and he couldn't decline. He might actually leave Smash for good now that Iwata has died. Hopefully he'll make more games like Air Ride and Uprising.

This is the worst part. I just have a hard time seeing him come back even in the next game, I would have loved a final send off to the character in Smash 4. I guess we'll always have Brawl.
What the fuck. There was literally no fucking mention of him whatsoever in the games. I was really hoping at the very least, they would say something about him. Nigga, I'm fucking angry.Bayonetta is alright with me though.
>>320305357
Have you been living under a rock for the past 2 years? Whats wrong with you?
>>320303760
What's his name again?
>>320305136
No, Kojima said it you fucking moron. He was open to him returning and said all it would take is Sakurai giving him a call.
Konami had nothing to do with it, Sakurai decided he didn't want Snake in for whatever reason (likely because he has nothing to do with Nintendo and was only added as a favor)

Konami also would have freely played balled now for the Ballot, they've already been licensing IPs to Nintendo. If Nintendo wanted to pay for his inclusion, they could have.

>one site reporting that some source close to Kojima said it
>oh wait no, it was several sites and interview with Kojima himself
I don't get how Nintendrones constantly do this, where they just make up shit to handwave away shit they don't want to face.
>>320303760
Snake... had a hard life. This year especially.
>>320306341
I'm pretty sure he died this year, in the MGS universe.
>>320305826
I'm sorry but I thought you were talking about a particular article that was published by some noname site (Fox weekly I think) soon after Smash's release seeing as you used its phrasing (never on his mind) It claimed to have an informant who gaves those details. Kojima saying he didn't think it was likely was a few months before the game was released in an interview that you can watch yourself, but it doesn't really give details like that particular article did.
>likely because he has nothing to do with Nintendo
they added Cloud
>>320303760
Kojima joins Sony, Konami says fuck it and programs snake into smash themselves. Bam, problem solved.
>>320303760
>Implying Konami wants anything related to Kojima to be in a game that doubles as free advertisement for his new company
>>320306843
:( shut up...
