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

I wonder what he does.

Lol at mighty in the background.
 
I'm happy Dillon got in as an assist trophy but seeing him there next to Sonic makes him look like he would have been a really interesing fighter. I never played any of the games but I always found him cool and kinda wish I could use him:(
 
Pushmo and Harmoknight next plz

I think that pushmo/crashmo would make a better stage than an assist trophy. The pushmo guy could just be trying to make it to the top, and move platforms in/out as he needs, which creates platforms for the fighters.
 
Man, Dillon was the longshot I was hoping against hope would be playable, but at least he's an AT and he looks great. There needs to be another Dillon game (as long as it ditches tower defense, two was enough)
 
Am I the only one that hates the whole "character X, who has only 1 characteristic in common with character Y, should be an alternate costume of Y" argument?

:o like what? Diddy/Dixie? Marth/Lucina? Megaman/Protoman? Yeah, no thanks.

I want actual costumes/roles/past incarnations of the same character, nothing else.
Wario did it perfectly. No reason mario and luigi can't have dr costumes. No reason Link can't have OoT link, or zelda OoT zelda costumes (face don't need to change, they're literally just costumes). Samus can have fusion suit (not just color palette).

Yep, an alternate costume should be just that, a costume, like Wario or Dr. Mario. The actual character shouldn't change unless, like WFT or Villager, there are canon (For lack of a better word) physical alternatives.

Yep, exactly like that. Those aren't even the worst examples, because at least these are all characters who have similar builds to their counterparts. But I've seen people suggesting characters who have 1 thing in common, but are completely different in everything else (like height, build and moves used in their series) to be alternate costumes. It seems like they want Smash Bros to turn into a bad mod!

I completely aggree with you. Some characters have multiple different outfits/designs used in their games, and I'd love to see those as alternate costumes. Like toon link in his pajamas, for example, or all the examples you listed.

Some of these suggestions are stupid, but, using those standards, do you dislike the Dark Link color in Brawl? It's still a different character, after all.

Yeah, the argument got old pretty fast so sometime I just toned them out because I already know the argument because it have been cycled so many times.

So Meta Knight on May 16 (EU release of Triple Deluxe)?

Haha, You wish.
 
I hope both Dillon and Mallo get a little more popular after being represented in Smash Bros. Both fit the bill for everything I want from a new Nintendo IP, except that their games don't get physical releases. That's all I need to consider them real.

The "Dark" Link alt pallet in Brawl isn't actually suppose to represent Dark Link, as that character is literally just a black silhouette, as shown in Event Mode. Besides, including an alternate pallet that acts as a homage to another character (such as Mario's Luigi and Wario pallets, or Peach's Daisy pallet) is different from them making a model for a whole new character and just relegating them to being a skin for a more popular character.
 
I think a palette swap that pays homage to a different character is acceptable. I do not think its appropriate for an alt to be an entirely different character however. It's almost disrespectful and undermines the potential of a character by relegating an entire character to an alt costume.
 
You guys think we'll get any mario kart 8 music in smash? That stuff is PHENOMENAL. Pretty much all of the games w/ live music have some of the best songs in nintendo history.

Also, any chance we'll get any ALBW content? I'd like at least some of the music, if not a stage.

Exactly! Also, it would be incredibly counterproductive to make a whole new model just to use it as a skin of an existing character.

Yeah, me too. I think Dillon, as well as his universe, has such great design it would be a shame to see it go wasted.

Like Daisy-Peach?
 
Peach's Daisy palette swap is equivalent to Mario's Luigi and Wario swaps.

It'd be the equivalent to those if Mario's Wario swap also changed his nose color. Peach's Daisy colors change her hair and skin color. It's clearly meant to (badly) simulate Daisy, it's not just a Peach in a yellow dress that happens to resemble Daisy.

The same "event mode" also has "Dark Samus" as black silhouette of Samus though.

Why wouldn't you go to those "lengths" for a palette swap that has Daisy colors? Changing the colors hardly requires the effort it would take to make a legitimate alt.
