I always thought Snake being in Smash was dumb as hell but other people really like him so good for them. At least I'll get funny codec calls out of it.
Kojima really wanted Snake in Smash. If I remember right he tried getting him in Melee but couldn't.

Honestly though I'm disappointed by Nintendo's E3 presentation a bit.

No Metroid Prime footage, no Animal Crossing, no Pikmin. Only thing I saw that I was anticipating was a trailer for the new FE, but that didn't exactly wow me.

How many years has it been since Miyamoto said Pikmin 4 was almost done.

I don't think Nightmare was officially announced before this video, was he? Not like it matters since I think the entire Soul Calibur cast will be returning.

No, he's been confirmed for a while. He was in the Geralt trailer for example.

It was pretty good! Not as good as Pikmin 2 but that's a hard game to top. I'm very excited to see where they could go with the series on the Switch but there's been nothing! NOTHING!

Pikmin 3 also had a cool touch control scheme with the Wii U gamepad where you would tap where you wanna throw your pikmin

I know people say they work well but I'm utterly inept when it comes to motion controls. Even in the games where they function properly and add a lot to the experience I end up hating them just because I handle them so poorly.

I dont like when my hands get out of sync with the action. Like if you are swinging a sword you dont feel when it is blocked by a shield so the character is staggered but im following through my swing. It feels bad to me idk

Lizardman is supposed the head of the series favorite character so he'll likely be in there. I also really can't imagine them leaving out Voldo

Still, who knows? It's not like SC is a series that hasn't made a bunch of baffling decisions

this is actually why Pikmin 4 is taking so long, the juice rendering technology must run at 60 jfps (juice frames per second) before they feel comfortable showing it off
