About half a year ago, a person who was on KickVic, Chris Niosi, was meant to be playing the character Byleth in Fire Emblem Three Houses and also in Fire Emblem Heroes, the mobile title. After allegations that he admitted to came about, he was recast by Zachary Aguilar in both games (Three Houses, it took a bit longer since the game was about to be released.) Nintendo did not give any official reason as to why Niosi was let go, but it would be assumed the reason would be breaking a non disclosure agreement (the same being done for Edelgard's original voice actor in the first trailer, who was Cristina Vee, with Tara Platt replacing her.)
Now with Byleth in Smash,
Niosi's biggest dream of being a character in Smash has been crushed.
