Well if you were disappointed with all 5 characters in the first pack, I don't think they could ever please you.

Making a lot of assumptions.

That makes two of us...

At least it wasn't Sora.

Was that an intentional bait and switch?

Dante has an announcement on the 16th.
It is Dante 3.
Sakurai is holding up three fingers.
And makes the announcement on the 16th.

And it is... a character from the three houses. Or is that just one of the most amazing coincidences possible?

I love how everyone tried to decode the three fingers, but it turned out to be binary counting the 17 FE-games.

What irks me about this choice is not that its another fire emblem(well, its not the main reason anyway), but that Rex wasnt considered for the game because the game released too close to Smash.But then Byleth is considered, with Three Houses being released just 6 months ago?

I mean, I know why Nintendo did this(since FE is quickly gaining popularity ever since Awakening and its becoming more and more of a sales juggernaut), but it still sucks.

Goddammit Nintendo.You better bring Rex with Pyra and Mythra in the next fighters pass.

Or perhaps Sakurai is an Fire Emblem fan......

The FE reddit page started making Byleth or the 3 house leaders memes and fan arts just because of the 3 fingers.

Listen, I like Nintendo. I like Fire Emblem, I like Sakurai and I know he works insanely hard and has a huge passion for Fire Emblem...but another damn Fire Emblem Character. Holy hell. I will be buying characters piece meal for the next Smash pass.

Character looks alright so far, idk if I'll main him, waiting sucks.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Was hoping for another Nintendo character. Byleth wouldn't have been my first choice, but a lot of the characters I play a lot were the ones I was least excited for when they were revealed, so we'll see how it turns out. And of course, for those who don't want another Fire Emblem character you don't have to buy it ^_^.

Except for all the people who already bought it with the fighters pass.
