Also the alleged return of the Ice Climbers
Some of my friend’s favorite pasttimes involve predicting and watchingSuper Smash Bros.reveals. I mean at this point any character could make it into the roster, and this latest rumor definitely has legs.
Born out of Vergeben, who correctly predicted that the Ninja Turtles would make their way intoInjustice 2and that Gr0h would debut inSoul Calibur(among some misses from what Vergeben is calling “bad sources”), the newSmashon Switch could hostMetroid‘s Ridley,Castlevania‘s Simon Belmont, and could see the return of the Ice Climbers.
Given the recent release ofSamus Returns, Ridley could be a relevant option, not to mention that fans have been clamoring for his addition for years. Simon Belmont is also very probable, given his involvement in the NES era and that Konami has already partnered with Nintendo on theSmashseries (if Simon is in, I’d be down for Dracula DLC). Also Ice Climbers? Yeah, that might be the number one requested returning character given their exclusion inSmash 4. Vergeben also claims thatnocharacters fromSmash 4will be cut. Given that we don’t have to worry about “3DS limitations” this time, that could also pan out.
So yeah, these are very safe rumors, but we’ll know more soon enough at E3 in just a few weeks (wow, it feels weird saying that).
