SirHighAwesomeParty I completely agree with you there, and I kinda feel Geno is inevitable at this point. All the points you made are really good ones that definitely give Geno’s chances a boost.

Though there is one other thing that I feel could be a very solid hint towards Geno in Smash, and I’m sure most of you have probably heard or seen it by now.

We all know this year Nintendo suddenly got much more strict with their music being uploaded to YouTube, and took down tons of popular videos. One of the first channels hit by this was BrawlBRST (don’t remember how to say or spell the last part of that name, so just BrawlBRST works). When the channel was first hit, the people behind it took down almost all of their Nintendo related videos (to avoid those getting claims as well).

One of the few things that stayed was all of the Super Mario RPG soundtrack, probably because the people in charge of the channel felt that since Square-Enix owns most of the music for that game it wouldn’t be an issue. But then about a month later, Nintendo claimed two Mario RPG videos. Beware the Forest Mushrooms, and Fight Against An Armed Boss.

A reminder that Nintendo does not own these songs, Square does. So it seems off Nintendo would claim stuff they don’t own, especially since both tracks seem well fit for Smash, and it fits with Square stuff only getting 2 tracks each. The channel has since been terminated, but I can confirm personally that this happened, I saw it with my own eyes before the people behind the channel just deleted all SMRPG videos before they were all claimed.

Now, I can’t personally confirm this part, since I have yet to actually see it and have only heard it, but supposedly Nintendo copyright claimed a fan remix of Megalovania pretending to be from Smash Ultimate, before Sans was revealed as a Mii Costume.

I think this is one of the most solid pieces of evidence for Geno so far. But anyway, time for something else (cause this post wasn’t long enough). It’s about tomorrow’s presentation.

(Breathing room between topics)

This is some conspiracy type stuff, but unlike the Dante thing which I don’t think is absolutely gonna be Smash, this one actually seems crazy enough to be true.

If you look closely at the picture of Sakurai used in the announcement photo for the presentation, you can see that it was cropped out and edited in from somewhere else, likely the presentation itself.

Now you know how in the character presentations Sakurai has a banner of the character he’s showing behind him right? And it has the characters main colour behind them. Well, in the cropped photo itself, you can slightly see some brown (or potentially dark orange) around him that wasn’t fully edited out.

What we can assume is that whoever is revealed, they’re background colour will be brown (or dark orange), which may limit down who it could be.

PapaGenos does a good job at explaining this (at around the 5:40 mark) so you can look at that to kinda get a better picture of this.

(Oh dear this took half an hour to type, what am I thinking? Why do I go on about this kind of stuff for such long stretches of time?)
