Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 6: Final Destination confirmed for not fun
- Thread starter IntelliHeath
- Start date
Chrom being somewhere in between Ike and Marth would be phenomenal.
Personally I would like Lucina more just because she is a female. She uses the same sword

My stance on what characters are less likely/not going to get cut, outside of obvious ones such as Mario or Link:
-If you were in the original Smash64. I think if you've been in every Smash game, you'll continue to be in every Smash game.
-If you are from a game that Sakurai has created. He's the say-how guy, and it's not a bad thing, but obviously he has love for characters he helped shape and create, like Kirby or now Pit. Why I also knew Dedede and certainly Meta Knight won't be cut.
-If you have a unique moveset that panders to unique and quirky. That's why I think characters like Game&Watch, Ice Climbers, and the like returned
-If you have the capacity to use a Landmaster..
-If you were in the original Smash64. I think if you've been in every Smash game, you'll continue to be in every Smash game.

Chrom's sword can glow tho.

I'd pick Lucina over Chrom, and Anna over both of them, but we all know what's gonna go down.

As for that second-to-last point, that didn't save Mewtwo and likely won't save Squirtle and Ivysaur. =(

But is the SAME sword
This will always be my favorite pic. One, because Zelda is actually showing some emotion for once, and Rosalina's face in the back is absolutely priceless
Metaknight is not getting cut. Ever.
Kojima must be one hell of a bro.
They're both hilariously unimportant.
- Metaknight is one of the three main Kirby characters and has the most playable appearances after Kirby himself. Not including him would be silly, especially since...
- Dedede was already confirmed, and Metaknight is just as important.
- Metaknight was the most popular tournament character in Brawl by a landslide. Most casual players love him too. No reason to drop him over less popular characters.
- Kirby is one of Nintendo's most most widespread and profitable series, with 23 games and over 30 million sales. When people argue a series like fucking Star Fox deserves three characters, Kirby definitely does.
- The Kirby franchise is Sakurai's baby. He's shown remarkable restraint with his creations in Smash, but anyone thinking he'll remove one of them is batshit.
Snake's heavier than Ganondorf.
Kojima must be one hell of a bro.
Why do you think Wolf has a better chance of being cut than Falco?
They're both hilariously unimportant.

Is there any way to make those collision bubbles for painful for my eyes? :/ I'm having aneurysms here.Sakurai also made sure that Snake was balanced, and by balanced I mean hilarious.

Nobody really expected more than 50 until the past Direct brought back both Sheik and Zero Suit Samus with the stipulation that any returning transformation/swap characters were getting split up. Since Brawl was looked at as a basis for the character roster of Smash 4, we thought 35 + 10 to 15 more characters was a good guesstimate. Since we have to bump up the number to count the individual characters (39) versus the unique "slots", 10 to 15 newcomers puts the game in the 49 - 54 range. Now, if you expect some ungodly amount of characters (55+), then I'd say you're believing in a far more unlikely situation.
Those characters listed are also questionable. Metaknight's a mainstay just because he's iconic within the Kirby universe and has a distinct play style. Wolf is a villain for one of the more popular franchises represented within Smash and also plays with a distinct feral style versus his contemporaries. Snake is the most questionable only because no one knows (or will know) what's up with him until launch day.
As for the "Sakurai wants around 35 tops" line, I'm very curious to see where that came from.

Everyone thinks everyone will be cut
When the 3DS version comes out, people will start thinking characters will be cut from the Wii U version

Did we play the same Brawl?
see, that's better

I also will add that Sakurai working on Kid Icarus is one of the reasons I think there will be a second Kid Icarus representative. Palutena is the most obvious choice, but I'm almost certain there's going to be a second Kid Icarus representative since they had a new game, Sakurai was heavily involved in it, and it was received well. Honestly, if Sakurai wasn't involved I'd have bigger doubts.
But I think Jigglypuff and Captain Falcon are in, even if they haven't been relevent for a while because they've been in every Smash game since the original. (Personal believer that all who were in Smash64 will be in every Smash game)

People will start asking for DLC that cuts characters after the WiiU version is released in order to fix balance or something.

Super Smash Bros subtitle obviously should have been Cut

Nah. It will be all about the rumored exclusive characters even though Sakurai said it won't happen.
I think that if Sakurai does things right, he will add 4 or so more between the versions. Free on Wii U, $3 per character on 3DS.
Because Falco will never be cut from Smash Bros. He is far too popular as a fighter, and if he was ever going to be cut, he would have been cut from Brawl.
So...it'll be Dog?

Pretty much one of the biggest reasons why I feel nothing but dread for a Chrom inclusion (sorry fans). That and in every scenario I can think of that leads to him getting in, either Ike gets robbed, cool females from the FE series get robbed, or anyone without blue hair and a sword from FE gets robbed.

No it's not....Technically lol. Yeah i know it's the "same" tho I do wish she could have gotten an exalted falchion from the future past dlc.
lol I didn't even think of this but it would be hilarious

Why you gotta play like that? :/
I read that as PersonaGAF and was really confused for a moment.

more like people will be going "WHERE'S THE WII U EXCLUSIVES"
Well, I should have said "remarkable restraint with character choices".
Fuck Metaknight.
I understand he's popular and unlikely to be cut.
I don't understand why people think Wolf is more likely.

Anyways, my mains in Brawl are already confirmed, so I'm more interested to see what the roster might be and secretly hoping for a 48-50 character roster (We're at 29 right now, it could happen!).
But I still am far more interested at this point in stages. We've had a lot of items revealed, a lot of characters, but actually very few stages. There are far more items than there were Brawl that are already confirmed, looks like there will definitely be more characters, but stages we know dreadfully little on.
Brawl had over 40 stages, and right now we know 15 stages for the 3DS version, and 14 for the WiiU version (and these two numbers include Battlefield and Final Destination). Outside of music, it's the thing they've been the most hush-hush on.
