Sakurai said Bayonetta had the most votes out of the "realizable" characters.
I think instead of "realizable," a better word would be "personally liked by Sakurai"
King K Rool probably got considerably more votes than Bayonetta worldwide and is entirely "realizable" but Sakurai hates DK and Metroid and has a huge boner for Kid Icarus and Fire Emblem so that doesn't matter at all.
>>
>>321232769
Yeah, kinda. A winner should have been chosen for each region. The way he rationalized Bayonetta sounded like crap.
>>
duh
>>
>>321232769
If it wasn't a sham, they would've actually revealed the full top 10 votes for each region instead of referring to them but never releasing them.
Obviously there are perfectly good characters that did better and Sakurai just did whatever he felt like and then bullshitted.

Realizable = Moneyhat

Bayonetta sure looked polished for only being in development for less than two months since the ballot ended.

The fans have spoken and they wanted K Rool but Sakurai hates him for being a western creation. Diddy gets a pass because he's literally just a tiny Donkey Kong and not an original concept.

It's sad, but true.

Nah it's pretty obvious Bayonetta didn't get as many votes as they said she did, unless they were totally hopeless against botting.

Didn't the ballot say that the votes were only meant to be suggestions and not be determined by a total? For however many months the ballot was open, it just acted as an advertising tool for the game. Anyone participating in it should have understood that.

I don't care to speculate the "real" winners of the ballot or whatever.

>One character and the only first party character that literally no one asked for which even some Fire Emblem fans have trouble figuring out the necessity of having over six reps in the game, by far one of the most underwhelming character reveals, its only purpose is being there to promote the new Fire Emblem games overseas when the game is still set to release in such places
>Bayonetta already this well developed when the ballot ended October 3rd

Yeah nah, it stinks of fish around here. Of all the first party characters that were PERSONALLY voted in the ballot, that including all the shitty and probable non-shitty ones, the ballot winner ending up being anything other than a first party even though he outright stated that from now on, it'd be fucking fan service? Shit nigga, this might be some sexy ass fan service ala Samus, but this sure ain't Nintendo fan service. Bitch might have had some pretty coolio games, but suddenly putting her in a Nintendo game doesn't suddenly make her this goddamn Nintendo staple everyone knows about, you might as well say "hey, you guys might have slightly helped, but really, it's just to promote the games, we already had a slot saved long ago just for this" and that's why Nintendo wouldn't market the game that much and seeing the Smash fans constantly questioning Kamiya all the fucking time about her just pretty much fucking solidified it that, in order to make the game popular, they had to give her some attention somehow and this was it.

Probably, but we'll never see the actual results, and we don't know what Sakurai's definition of "Realizable" is.

Wrong, Mewtwo, Lucas, Roy, and Ryu combined took 8 months.

>>321236304
This. Sakurai says part of the consideration is how interesting their moveset can be (partly why we got Ryu and not Heihachi, for instance).

K. rool would not be fun. Bayo looks awesome.
>>
>>321234402
We don't even know what "realizable" means. For all we know, Sakurai decided that K. Rool was too big and therefore was not realizable.

Nah. Would have been nice to get more than one character out of the ballot but that was just a hope. The non-realizable characters are probably Snake, Banjo, and some dumb shit like Goku.

This is somewhat subjective but Witch Time and many of her attacks and general playstyle are very complex

Do you have a more concise way of saying "personally liked by Sakurai?"
If you do I would love to hear it so I can use it next time. The word "realizable" is concise but not precise. The phrase "personally liked by Sakurai" is the most concise way I could state the precise truth, so I used it. Choosing accurate words should come before anything else.

Whether or not Rool got more votes than Bayo, Sakurai is damn well aware of the demand for Rool. DK is a household name and a tentpole Nintendo series thay is severely lacking in Smash fan service, and K Rool had a massive following that only got bigger after the ballot got announced. I'm glad Bayo is in but Corrin is just Sakurai sniffing his own farts.

You're missing the point. The point isn't that she's completely done or that balancing her is going to be easy, the point is that coming up with a moveset, making/getting/editing a model for her, animating it, making/getting/editing all the models/sprites/effects for her various visually complex attacks, programming them all into the game, and then polishing/bugfixing to the point where a trailer can be made takes a hell of a long time.

People wanted less represented franchises to get more characters, first.

Mario and Pokemon having that many characters is understandable, since they're both enormously popular. Fire Emblem has always been sort of niche, so it's odd that it has that many characters, too.

Corrin looks cool though, so I'm not that mad.

There's nothing wrong with having 6 FE reps, there is something wrong with other more popular, long-standing, and iconic series getting ignored in favor of it.

This whole thing reminds of the Dota 2 contest that Valve hosted where players could vote for a hero to receive a new model. Every poll and website was certain that Zeus or Slardar would win, yet an entirely different hero won instead.

This is pretty much the same situation. People overestimate how much of an audience 4chan/reddit/gamefaqs represents. It's easily possible that Bayonetta actually did win the poll fair and square, and K. Rool, a character that hasn't been relevant for decades, turned out to be not as popular as you all thought.

And besides, Bayonetta's play style is ten times more interest than anything K. Rool could have brought to the table.

Bayonetta couldn't even sell a million copies, there's no way that she was the most popular character in the ballot.

I don't think k rool was the most popular either, but I would bet money that he got more attention than Bayo did.

A port of the Wii DKC game nearly matches Awakening in sales. There's nothing impressive about FE's sales.

Not to mention a franchise that's now doing well has even less reason to get promotional DLC. It'd make more sense for a new franchise like Codename STEAM to get in instead.
>>
For how long the ballot was up I'm surprised they only chose 1 character from it and not even the most requested one. I think they wanted bayonetta in at the beginning and waited until she reached a quota for them to begin development

Honestly if they would have announced that bayo,cloud and ryu were all going to be dlc in the beginning no one would be upset and have corrin be bundled with Roy so that way it's a veteran with a newcomer and just keep mewtwo and Lucas together then the DLC wouldn't be so shit in hindsight. They should have never cut Lucas,Wolf and Snake in the first place and brought Roy and mewtwo back like with what they did with Dr.Mario for the base game

And the fact that Nintendo thinks Bayonetta is their baby now, and that they are so "tight" with Sega......but watch and see. As soon as the opportunity arises, sega will take Bayo away and betray Nintendo by putting it only on the other consoles.

You are a naive retard if you actually think they cared at all about that ballot.

It was only used to keep mild interest on the game and to keep word of mouth going about it.

They already had the characters picked out before even putting that ballot up, 100% guaranteed.

I was referring to Bayonetta 2, which didnt sell very well.

>>321239792
I feel like most people were playing safe with their votes and didn't vote for characters they didn't think would make it in like Bayonetta or Cloud so they voted for actual Nintendo characters which is why people feel cheaper about bayonetta.

Splatoon sold over 1 million and is more recent and a Nintendo ip, so by that logic they should have had a character from that in.

Smash 4 sold 2.5 million in NA, while it sold 800K copies in europe..... Between these two regions, NA makes up 25% of the vote. If we are generous and say that every person who bought the game got to vote once per IP, then that means for every vote Bayo got in Europe, the top 4 contenders got 3X the votes. Besides that, Bayonetta isn't even the actual top 5 for NA votes. She was in the top 5 among the "Realizable and negotiable fighters" meaning there were other fighters that got discarded in favor of her placing on the poll.

Theres no way you can do this math and tell me her winning was not a sham.

Those were joke examples like how you said you voted Bayonetta as a joke, the fact that you took that seriously and don't see the irony that the same could be said about bayonetta only makes it funnier
>>
Bayonetta in Smash?

Shit, I gotta pick that game up now.
>>
Yes it was a sham. Isaac should have gotten in.

>>321241329

Nah, I can guarantee you that joke votes mostly centered around the following:

- Goku
- Superman
- Bayonetta
- Spongebob
- Shrek
- Indie games

It's just that in Bayonetta's case, she was more "realizable" that we thought.

Dammit Sakurai. I love your damn game but why do you keep doing this?

She wasn't even the most realizable just top 5 and not even top 3 or they would have mentioned it
>>

>Believing Sakurai

Nice meme

>>321238141
It means she wasn't 1 because 1 and 2 were probably stupid shit like Goku and Spongebob
>>
>>321241778
trying to reason with k rool retards is like trying to pull a nail out the wall by talking to it.

>>321241964
"Realizable" when in context with Sakurai most likely means "characters he likes."
>>
>>321241931
>She wasn't even the most realizable just top 5 and not even top 3 or they would have mentioned it

She probably wasn't either. They used "realizable" for a reason, which basically means "no Goku, Shrek, or any character with too much red tape". For all we know Bayonetta's true place was 14th or whatever.
>>
>>321241964
I really hope you don't think that after all the shrek and Cory votes that bayonetta was the most voted especially after seeing the shit that was happening for Krystal and Shovel Knight
>>
>>321239016
Bayonetta was chosen most likely planned since the concept dlc came in to question because. They could grab her model to use quite easily plus she's basically the next best thing to having Dante in smash. She literally gives the game even more exposure as apposed to needing it. I bet kamiya would've refused and maybe even demanded for Wonder Red to be used instead but the poll just shuts him up from complaining because the "fans" ask for her. It would explain why he was in different about her inclusion and would explain just about done
>>
>>321241964
Even if she wasn't number 1, I guarantee she was way behind other actual 1st party Nintendo characters, like Wolf or Young Link or a popular pokemon or something.
>>
>>321242347
thank god sakurai ignored those shit taste morons who want more clones back in the game.

They get their own cool trailer in Smash 5 and not just a lazy gameplay video

It could also mean "We could make a moveset based on the source material, because I don't wanna feed speculation I can reboot something just from filing in the gaps like Pit on Brawl again"

Surprisingly, Im actually looking forward to Corrin more than Bayonetta. I have nothing against her, but I want to play as a fucking DRAGON

ITS NOT FAIR

>>321237535
Aside from Tropical Freeze, the DK series is dead. The Kremlings haven't been in a mainline game since the 64 version. Corrin is just an advertisement, nothing but that. Bayonetta was the ballot winner and that sounds like a much more appealing character than a crocodile that shoots cannonballs.

>>321244032
By this point, it's just a Krool joke, isn't it?

>that sounds like a much more appealing character than a crocodile that shoots cannonballs.
>Bayonetta is just le witch with guns on her shoes.

I can trivialize a character's appeal, too.
>>
>>321244902
Here's the difference, all that you see about Bayonetta and what works/doesn't work for her character is seen as earlier as the first game.

K.Rool's been through more changes than Madonna every game he's been in except for spin-offs.
>>
>>321244094
Bayo was not the ballot winner. Everyone knows that she wasn't even that close to the top.
>>
>>321245924
Well, now it's spilled milk at this point. So stop crying like a little bitch.

They were too lazy to implement the actual winners so they said they were "not realizable".

>"But what about the runner ups?!"

Nigga, that's what the mii costumes are. You're looking at all the popular votes that Sakurai looked at and went "lol no, too gay."

It seems weird that Japan was never mentioned in regards to Bayonetta winning the Ballot. He said she was Number One in Europe and Top 5 in NA, but what about Japan?

>I decide to go jump off a bridge because not even Retro wants me, but not before posting a bad review on Yelp

This won me over.
