The main reason why Bayonetta is in Sm4sh is because Platinum Games is developing StarFox Zero
This is not a conspiracy
>>320417523
didn't notice the clocktower exploding in front of the moon was the smash logo until now
>>320417523
by your stupid logic Wolf should be in smash4
>>320417645
holy shit
>>320417671
Only 3 slots anon

OH FUCK

and sega
>>320417523
>all dat fanservice
Platinum should make the NX smash bros
Imagine them doing SSE 2
>>320417523
nintendo's got a good relationship with platinum so getting bayonetta worked out was probably a breeze
she was given nearly full-throttle franchise treatment like the non-DLC guests, with trophies, actual varied alternates and a shit ton of music as opposed to fucking Cloud

>platinum does 5mash
>zero to death stocks taken all over the place due to combo system
>matches turn to using 6 stocks
>NOW WITH DONTE, FUCK YOU
>Less cartoons reps because now more serious or over the top characters are put in
>>320417523
Or it could be that there were other characters above her in the poll, but the companies who owned the rights to said characters declined, while SEGA said yes.
SEGA still owns the rights to Bayonetta.
>>320418705
Platinum wants her in the next game.
Its time
>>320418705
Good, Toon shit killed Zelda. Better to remove the cancer from Smash before it dies too.

>want to use that as my wallpaper for my iPhone 6 Plus
>Apple is dumb so it zooms in too much and some characters are hardly visible.
Fuck this. Why are phones dumb?
>>320418705
I have no confidence in Platinum being able to create a good fighting game. Beat-em-ups are not fightan, not at all.
>>320418705
>Company that just put out a game based on a cartoon series/toy lineup.
>More serious.
the worst part is the bald faced lie that she was the winner of the ballot* (*minus "realizable characters" ie the ones people actually voted for)
i don't want bayonetta at all, but i wouldn't mind so much if they didn't act like they're doing this for us. nobody asked for this.
cloud is some A+ fan service though, i can just pretend february's dlc doesn't exist.
>>320419249
There was anarchy reigns, which was a mix between beat 'em up and fighter, kinda. I liked it.
>>320419314
>long and short hair
>>320419419
it was even less of a fighting game than Smash Bros, I'll just put it like that.
>>320419314
>tfw I love both Bayo designs
This pleases me.
>>320419479
Yeah, I guess it's more like an online team based beat 'em up. Sorry.
>>320417523
>Samus vs Lucina
>Girl disguised as Boy vs Girl disguised as Boy
What I don't get is how such an adult themed character could fit in a childrens game.
>>320419712
But anon, it's a competitive action game.
I don't care what the motive is AT ALL.
In one generation, I got a sequel I never though was going to happen and my favorite gaming character is in my favorite fighting/party game.
I'M FUCKING ECSTATIC.

i am almost positive k rool was above her in the poll, but for some reason sakurai doesn't want to include him.
like he's such a major character, if sakurai was going to put him in the game he would have put him in by now.
the fact that they had to look to obscure characters (wii fit, villager, duck hunt) or look to newer characters (rosalina, shulk, robin) for the original smash 4 newcomers indicates to me that major nintendo characters people always request like k rool, dixie, krystal, impa, ridley etc are not even on the table as far as sakurai's concerned. If they were, they'd be in the game by now.
as far as k rool, he either doesn't like him, thinks he's "too big", or can't think of a good enough moveset for him.
i'm guesing the top 5 consisted of characters like that that sakurai has written off as "unrealizable", or characters they couldn't get the rights to as you said.
>>320417523
The joke here is that you think that I care.
Bayo is in smash. Dealio with it.
>>320419314
>that one in the back showin off
>>320420083
this. The top 5 was probably
1. Ridley
2. Goku
3. K. Rool
4. Snake
5. Bayo
or something like that.
>>320420083
Krystal was considered in a way during Brawl's development
>Smash gets Cloud and Bayonetta
All I care about is how much new Smash games can make SAS look like even more of a joke with simple roster additions
>>320419373
So you seriously just ignore all the people who are excited for this and all the posts saying that they voted for Bayo in the ballot?
Seek help.
>>320421135
Of course
probably only a few minor people even brought her up, and mostly as a fucking joke, about her being added because her second game was Wii U exclusive.
there was barely any talk about her.
she was only added because of Nintendo and Platinum's buddy buddy relationship now. I fucking do not believe she won the ballot, over heavily requested characters like Snake, K Rool, and Banjo. the last 2 have been requested since Melee
>>320422087
Bayonetta is fairly popular, especially with the controversy surrounding her.
The biggest reason she won is that she was popular in all three regions. Just because you heard people trying to push for shit characters online, like K Rool or Banjo, doesn't mean they had the most votes. It's likely that they were popular in one region, but not so much in the others. The character had to be popular in all three regions.

I need to order this image as a large canvas and put it on my wall
