The character is either like the Fire Emblem characters where there is a Male/Female option. OR each skin is a different ARMS character like Kooplaling.
The gimmick: A long distance grab that can reach across the stage but is super punishable if the grab misses. Example: If the grab from across stage doesn't hit the gloves drop and the character has to pull them back in, laving them vulnerable.
Down B - switches the arms equipment/attachments
Are you hype? Disappointed? Are Assist Trophies turned Characters confirmed? What's Yas Forums feeling?
The fact that they haven't specifies who means something is up. But that fact that they showed all 15 characters means they can't have all of them as different costumes unless there's an Echo Fighter.
My money's on Biff.
Nolan Johnson
You don't know that for sure yet. People were begging for in during Brawl. I think the only reason he didn't get into 4 is from lack of any sort of presence at the time.
Noah Turner
Ah yes, household name Travis Touchdown
Ryder Kelly
name any character from arms
Thomas Martin
ARMS almost outsold the entire NMH series and I'm a fanboy for Travis.

I personally doubt Sakurai would give ARMS the Hero/Bowser Jr treatment because I don't think he'd be willing or able to get away with giving even just 4 different ARMS fighters the same animations. At most it'd be Springman and Ribbon Girl considering they're both the basic sort of generic mascots. I think Min-Min is the most likely if it's just a sole fighter. She's standard enough that her gimmicks won't undermine the fact she's representing ARMS, and her kick allows for more standard attacks than just punches, plus her dragon arm creates a nice visual to communicate charged arms.
After looking at the Springman assist trophy, I think an ARMS fighter's gimmick would be slow heavy hitting long-ranged standards that can be curved as the attack unfolds, leading to more mind-game based combat. The actual arm weapons would probably just switch based on the attack. I can imagine the special attacks would focus more on arms with more special properties like the dragon head or maybe holding on to charge them. I imagine their grab is going to be one of those long ranged ones, but slower maybe? Final Smash has to be Hedlok c'mon.

I'm wondering if they'll implement a mechanic where you throw out 2 separate arms with separate hit boxes which can be moved to catch jumping opponents. Either way I'm just happy we're getting 1st party characters, I'm not interested in 3rd parties unless they're identified for being on Nintendo platforms, like Neku or an SMT protagonist
Brandon Brown
>Ribbon girl is the co-mascot along with Spring man It has to be her, right? Smash never seems to go for the side characters first, popular or not.
Asher Ward
This is a terrible argument user. NMH came out what? 10 years ago? Sold pretty terribly and ARMS came out in 2017 and outsold all NMH titles. All your saying is 4 games in 10 years got it's ass kicked by one game that is bound to get a sequel especially after its inclusion in Smash and that one game has only had a 2-3 year life time.

the females are the only ones worth anything

Agree with the 3rd party take on this. ALSO - I like the thinking on those attack ideas.
The possibilities on an ARMS character in smash are really interesting even if I'm not hype for the character/series

>each skin is a different ARMS character like Kooplaling.
I’d absolutely hate that. The Koopalings work fine in a Koopa Clown Car because outside of their boss fights, their playable appearances are fairly identical in spinoff games like Mario Kart. When you do that for a game where every playable character has to be unique in some capacity ontop of having distinguishable identities tied to their unique attributes, it just doesn’t work because you aren’t doing the character justice. Just look at Ken in SSBU, despite being an echo he plays wildly differently from Ryu to the point where he shouldn’t even be called an echo in the first place. Just because each character in Arms have interchangeable arms doesn’t mean you interchange the literal characters themselves. They serve as the foundation for the movesets you put onto them, taking that away ruins what makes Arms appealing to 2 people who love the game like me.

I want Travis but the ARMS character might be cool
It's because most people just search off google images and copy & paste the link rather than saving them. Most of the ones at the top results just come from Tumblr.

How do I customize my control scheme in ARMS? I wanna dash to A
Leo Diaz
start doing lateral raises. i don't care if you don't have dumbbells you have something heavy at home you can use. 15 reps 3 times a day, up to 5 if you're feeling good. The small muscles in your side delts are rare muscles you can work every day. That's why boxers can do bag work daily. in three weeks you can throw whatever silly exaggerated punches you want in ARMS without getting gassed
who do you all think is the arms character in smash?
Grayson Cox
who do you all think is going to be in fighter pass 2?
Wyatt Hughes
don't ruin this for us, you dick. I want Travis in too and the last thing we need is someone like you shitting all over that. Now gimme Spring Man/Max Brass and Travis can follow suit. I'll main both.
I want Twintelle, but I expect Spring Man and Ribbon Girl as a skin, and Springtron as replaced assist trophy
Jackson Howard
>How do I customize my control scheme in ARMS? x on the character select screen or in the pause menu
Blake Long
Along with an arms character, I think a mario character, pokemon character, and capcom character will be in fighter pass 2
Jack Collins
I’m leaning towards the idea that they’re going announce in June and it’s a new character from it. It’s the only reason I can think of that would explain why: A.) ARMS is suddenly so much attention after support ended for it two years ago and B.) Why they would bother keeping the fighter’s identity a secret but not the series
Liam Moore
Thanks broseph
Angel Harris

Jaxon Myers
development time and it could be multiple skins
Ethan Perez
besides the arms character who do you all think will be in fighter pass 2?
Juan Hill
I want Spring Man and I'm expecting either him or Min Min.
Colton Gray
It's Springman and maybe Ribbon Girl. You're actually fucking delusional if you think otherwise. They can easily replace the AT with Springtron.
>B-B-B-BUT WHY WOULD THEY HYPE UP THE REVEAL AND NOT SAY WHO This is the same game that hyped up Incineroar as the final character and Byleth as the end of FP1.
I'm fine with Spring Chad. He's a fun character and he's the one all the ARMS naysayers focus on when it comes to Smash.
Either Spring, Minmin, Coyle, or Max Brass would make me happy
Joseph Brooks
>you need Yas Forums gold to edit filenames
Jaxson Hughes
Users hype up shit, not the game
Samuel Allen
I don't think it will be multiple characters, none of them aside from the literal robot reskin can share animations without it looking wrong. The arms characters all have literally one thing they do that is unique, ribbon girl without multiple jumps is just wrong.
Jack Morales
It's actually Rayman.
Nicholas Smith
He might not be a Crash Bandicoot or a Sly Cooper world famous, but his 3 games have been all solid, well, TSA is a hit or miss.
Brody Wright
Whether his games are good doesn't matter, NMH is a niche IP.
