Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 7: How Can My Smash Brother Be This Cut

Ezalc said:
Custom Robo has 4 games and has yet to have a playable rep. I would love to see both Isaac and Ray Mk II as playables and they were both ATs in Brawl. Smash needs more mecha characters and Ray would be great as a counter to Little Mac: Amazing in the Air, awful on the ground.
Quiet you.

So Ray would be Jigglypuff with guns?

Geno discussion comes up far too rarely for this to be a worthwhile suggestion. Hell, his detractors bring him up far more than his proponents ever do.

I support the banning of discussing any character I don't want to see on the roster! Don't throw your logic and reason at me and think it'll be persuasive!

This. I said I would love to see him in playable, but I don't believe he actually has a chance.

The only ones I wanted this time around who I felt had a chance were Little Mac, Isaac, Ray 01/Legend, and Ridley. One was confirmed and as ever the last has a bunch of jokes and trolls about him.

The other two I mentioned in my other post, both were ATs in Brawl and both come from franchises who have had at least 3 games yet no playable representative so far. They would offer something interesting in terms of moveset: Isaac being a mix of a swordsman and a mage and Ray being a mecha and great air fighter.

My only other hope would be Sukapon for his WTF factor alongside R.O.B and G&W and the fact that thanks to him being originally from a fighting game he basically has a moveset already. Plus he's also interesting what with the no limbs thing.

I'm confused because this says "he said" - who said, and where? I feel like I am missing some context.

Yeah, but it matches up assuming the Gamatsu is the final amount of newcomers (Mewtwo is a veteran).

Well, but it also says (it could change), so I don't know if we should put any stock in it at all. Even if the source is accurate...it could change! :-)

There are hardly any more irrelevant characters to Nintendo than Geno.

Besides Snake.

That bad? I guess I can check it out when I have a free time.

What were they thinking when they assembled that sorry excuse for a roster? If they wanted to only give us 35 characters, why couldn't they have been the most requested characters?

What was wrong with King K Rool? It shocks me to no end, I mean, they can create moves for Bowser, Dedede, Ganondorf but they drew a total blank on K. Rool?

What about Geno? I can understand if there were some legal issues that couldn't be resolved (Square Enix and Nintendo act like they went through a bitter divorce) but I just don't understand it. Why didn't Sakurai try harder to get Geno to be a playable character? Instead a God forsaken robot took its spot. What a horrible idea.

For the record, no, the roster isn't ok the way it is. Its pathetic and I feel like we were all misled into believing this game was better than what it was. Why was Itawa going around saying that a 35 character roster is "impressive"? Has he even SEEN the roster? Is he completely oblivious to what the fans actually wanted? I mean, sure, they worked VERY hard on the game but I fail to see the awe in the roster. It seems like the way they worded everything on the Dojo was misguiding "up until now, Ness... blah blah blah" but it wasn't true. My respect for the game and anticipation for it to come out has plummeted. It looked so very promising and so awesome at first and its very difficult for me to be forgiving after all the delays and the pitiful roster selection.

I shouldn't have expected this from the get go, but can you blame false advertising?
Nintendo/Sakurai never claimed this, but this was my benchmark for this game:

A 40-50 character roster (with appealing characters). Was it really THAT hard to achieve? They could have done it had they put in the most wanted characters. But, wait, I forgot that the poll was nothing more than an illusion. The confirmed characters were all planned to be in the game already.

But its more than just the characters now. Everything seems a bit "low" now. The item select screen doesn't seem any different in terms of quantity from Melee. The number of stages is ok, especially with stage editor.

I don't know guys, I don't think I could enjoy this game nearly as much as I wanted to. None of the characters seem appealing enough for me to want to try out. Maybe Sonic, but he's going to be one of the most overused characters.

*rant over*

Which is a laugh, because they aren't changing jack about the roster at this point unless character implementation falls behind their time constraints.

Geno's a Mario character so that's out. Also, Lip is from the Nintendo Puzzle League (specifically Panel De Pon known in the west as Tetris Attack) and that's been rep-less for a while. She was easily one of my top 5 most wanted characters from pre-Brawl to now just because of the potential puzzle game mechanics being interpreted in a platform fighter have in my mind. Let me borrow some animations from Smashboards for a bit now that the opportunity's come up.



It'd also be pretty awesome seeing Takamaru, Little Mac and Lip finally get theirs after being put through the Captain Rainbow Rehabilitation Camp™. That and it'd be pretty awesome to essentially play as a Trafalgar Law like character in Smash.

Lip has an item! :p

Speaking of bannable offenses, we should probably slap that onto Ridley, Mewtwo & Palutena, just like with Mega Man in the Brawl thread.

Ban talking about popular characters? Do you want the thread to just be PokeGAF?

Ridley has nearly 600. Why Geno, exactly? Why not Black Mage?

Let's be honest with ourselves. Geno sucks. Why should a character like him be included over, let's say, the Agents from EBA?
Click to expand...
Because I have no fucking clue.

I remember there was even a petition mailed to Sakurai with Geno supporters' names on it.

I need to get a glass of water, the last post in that thread made me dehydrated. So much salt.
Click to expand...
LOL

There was so much salt when Ridley was confirmed as a boss and Tom Nook was seen in the background of Smashville.
 
There will be a special easter egg where if you leave a stage on for longer than an hour, the camera starts zooming out. It'll zoom and zoom and zoom until it zooms out far enough to show that the entire stage is taking place inside of one of Ridley's eyes.

I think the 3 month-ish gap between versions means the possibility of adding characters. /shrugs
