Twas a good day indeed, i still get notifications of this getting attention on twitter. All we can do is wait and see for now, but hope is still alive friends. Whos to say though, if breath of the wild link is any indication, this smash bros could be in store for some big changes to move things forward by leaving a lot in the past. And with ice climbers almost certainly coming back, sakurai obviously cares about what the fans want (too an extent) so it would be a shame to not at least attempt to bring him back.

Which is not true of course, bomberman for switch is a thing (and well supported) and konami likes money so negotiations are easily possible, and honestly i can see sakurai wanting some castlevania in this smash so getting snake shouldnt ever be out of the question. Of course we now have to hear this era's newest excuse for why he cant participate 'konami is messed up, they wont work with anyone'. Im hoping as are all of us that snake makes his grand return. Long time no see brothers, it seems we're thrown back into the fray of battle once more. If there's another 'Snake' in Smash as an alt character, it is Big Boss/Naked Snake (from Metal Gear Solid 3/Peace Walker/Ground Zeroes).

Question is how much of a difference it makes.Īlso, if we are getting Snake in Smash, it is Solid Snake first and foremost.

be dealing with a company that at the same time is sacking their friends when they can do business with companies that own characters they love that want their characters in Smash? No one wants to be involved with awkward relations with Konami at that time.ģ. Kojima wasn't involved in any negotiations to cross-promote Metal Gear.Ģ. If there's reasons that Snake wasn't in Smash 4, it is clearly that:ġ. It's like saying buying Metal Gear Solid 1 on the PS4 PSN or playing your Xbox copy of Metal Gear Solid 2 is celebrating every decision top management of Konami is making nowadays. There's a lot of holes in the logic contradictory to this. Celebrating the Metal Gear series, Konami's video game history, Solid Snake, and all other Snakes in the Metal Gear series does not equate to celebrating every decision top management of Konami is making nowadays.

Kept you waiting, huh
