I know you didn't, I did. They're both equally silly arguments though. And Snake could be cut for reasons such as "too many third parties". Snake has absolutely nothing going for him that Squirtle and Ivysaur don't have as well. And differences you make between the two are completely arbitrary.
So that's "Series 1." It's been said in interviews the plan is to release an Amiibo for every fighter on the roster. In that case, assuming each series has about 14-15 fighters, who do you think will be in "Series 2?"
Maybe we'll see:
- Rosalina & Luma
- Bowser
- Luigi
- Ike
- Diddy Kong
- Toon Link
- Sheik
- ZSS
- Lucario
- Charizard
- Greninja
- Little Mac
- Palutena
- King Dedede
- Pikmin & Olimar
I think they might make us wait for the third-party reps.
It might also be they haven't shown Series 2 yet because unannounced vets or newcomers like Chrom, Shulk and Chorus Men could be mixed in.
Is it confirmed that that is series 1? Seeing them all together makes me wonder what their overall strategy is for the Smash amiibos. Usually, I'd say it would be unwise to put all of the most popular characters in the first series. Most kids and their grandmas will be looking for Mario, Pikachu, Yoshi, etc. But Nintendo needs the first series to do well so stores will be willing to stock future amiibos.
I wonder if there's a good way for them to double dip on certain characters, even within the Smash series? Like, maybe they could put out an electrified Pikachu in series 2 that unlocks an exclusive color scheme or something. Otherwise, I don't think Walmart will be too thrilled about stocking, say, the third series, made up of Ice Climbers, Mr. Game & Watch, and ROB.
Maybe they'll do some of the less popular character Amiibos as store, web, or event exclusives.

I took the 4 I made from that hour long video. My plan is to rewatch the treehouse/tournament stuff and make gifs from there, but I don't have time to right now.
I'll probably make an imgur gallery or something so that I don't kill you mobile users.

Marth is a day 1 amiibo, rest I'll get eventually
Again, Squirtle and Ivysaur have absolutely no more bearing on Snake's chances that they do Captain Falcon's or any other character. There's no reason to bring them up in this discussion whatsoever.

Im so in for a figure of shulk, er I mean, I hope shulk is confirmd so I can get a figure >.>
My day 1's (assuming the ones in the picture are the first series) are Link, Zelda, and Samus. If i find out some of them are rarer than others, i'll get the rare ones, too.
I remember back when I was in middle school, Star Wars toys were popular, and stores didn't seem to have any qualms about stocking action figures of the weird side characters, like the lady with six boobs from Return of the Jedi. Maybe it'll be a similar situation here where they'll just stock them all and if some sell better than others, so be it.
I do hope it's not difficult to obtain any given figure.

But you did, that's what started this all the in the first place. You specifically stated that Snake is in a different situation than those two Pokemon, but he's not. They're both in the same situation. They both could be in, but they're both probably cut. There's absolutely no reason to expect one more over the other. Compare this to Captain Falcon, who is much more likely to be in the game than both of them because of his status as a Smash 64 veteran and because of the F-Zero assist trophy.

Im looking at goggles pikachu and you can see that his goggles move dynamically when he goes against the screen, if it also moves regularly than that is amazing

True, but Star Wars toys usually mix in some popular characters with the weird six boobers. Like, they might do a series with Sixboob, Background extra 437, Luke in bass fishing gear, and battle damaged Darth Vader. They always find a way to sneak in some popular ones.
I'd think they'd do that for this too, but they'd probably need a way to differentiate the in-game functionality of "alt color Mario" and regular Mario.

Is that one hundred percent confirmed? I mean, it's going to be A LOT of figurines, even for guys relatively disliked, like ROB.
Focusing on the most liked characters would make more sense for them.

These are marvelous
I brought up Squirtle and Ivysaur in response to you. And again, they're really NOT comparable. Squirtle and Ivysaur were designed a certain way. For all we know, in Sakurai's eyes, they might be invalid once you break off Charizard. He might think Charizard works as a character but the other two only work as supplements in a team. It's hard to say what's up there because those three were in such a unique arrangement compared to the rest of the roster. And again, cutting Squirtle and Ivysaur doesn't eliminate an entire franchise and fanbase outright, meaning it's a much easier decision to make.
But again, this is so completely and utterly irrelevant to Snake... or Captain Falcon... or Falco or Wolf... or R.O.B... Or any of the unannounced vets.
Let's just agree to disagree.

He only said that essentially Snake was his own character in Brawl whereas Charizard, Ivysaur and Squirtle comprised a full unit under the name of Pokemon Trainer.
Really seems like you want to play a semantic game based entirely on my cannot prove or disprove quip.

I would like to guess that it's more of him having veteran status. Also it's probably because of Lost World too.

Don't forget that the hypothetical Series 2 could include Luigi, Captain Falcon, Megaman, Bowser, Pac-Man, Charizard and Lucario. The entire Smash roster is iconic in some way; I don't think there's going to be much trouble padding out series with popular characters.
Exactly, but he's made up his mind, so I'm not inclined to try and help him understand.

It's more likely that you will see him in action in Chrom's trailer.

No you didn't... Go back and look at the conversation. You brought up Squirtle and Ivysaur first. And once again, you're using wild speculation as "evidence" for why Squirtle and Ivysaur can be seen as unlikely to return. And there are tons of fans of the two characters that would be alienated if they were removed. If you can honestly say those things, and then say that Snake isn't in a comparable situation, you're being a huge hypocrite. I'm not saying that the Pokemon directly influence Snakes chances of returning, I'm saying that both Snake and the Pokemon have the same chance of returning (very low). You can speculate both ways to figure out why one might be more likely than the other, but there's no information given to us by Sakurai to make us think so.
If you're going around saying Snake could go either way, you can't then turn around and say the Pokemon are most likely gone. They're in the same situation.
But in the same post, he also said that makes Squirtle and Ivysaur less likely to return than Snake, high is completely ridiculous.
True, true. I guess it also depends on how well they keep the popular characters in stock. It's just not like Disney's thing where they can pick and choose from a boat load of popular characters. Nintendo has a handful of really popular characters, and they're mostly in series 1.
There's also nothing stopping them from doing alt color or pose amiibos that have no differences in-game at all. Or doing mail-in offers for some of the less popular characters. Or doing, say, 2 or 3 packs of them.
Not sure how far you're going back, but I'm referring to you bringing up the Squirtle and Ivysaur logic yesterday.
Of course Squirtle and Ivysaur have fans. But if they're gone, Pokémon fans still have other characters. Cut Snake, and MGS fans have nothing.
And again, there's no evidence to suggest Snake is gone. He just hasn't been shown yet. We have literally nothing other than uncertainty.
But where the Pokémon are concerned, apples and oranges. They were originally part of a larger character. That absolutely could affect their standing once split apart. It's not wild speculation. What's wild speculation is saying Snake is gone when there's nothing to indicate such is the case.
They. Are. Not. Comparable.
I'm done having this conversation. You're a nice guy, but this is going in circles. I'm sure someone else will argue with you.
You know who we need as an AT?
The Black Knight from Fire Emblem. He should be a one hit KO, so it'd just be a game of keep away as long as he's out.
Or, in my dream game, we'd have Tibarn as an assist trophy:
He'd just turn into a bird and fly someone off the screen. The overall point here is that FE characters make great assist trophies.

Same here, day one for both, I'm also considering buying a third one, maybe kirby or vilager, not sure.

I honestly could care less about the argument you two are having. Honestly all the characters brought up in this argument including Ridley have impossible chances of not at least being a trophy.
For your joy, I dug up the first Brawl thread from when all people were hearing were rumours and leaks out of the roundtable

I'm talking about the last page. And you're wrong, I'd like to hear one legitimate reason why they're in different situation. You mention how originally being part of a combined character hurts the Pokemons chances. There is no reason to think this, you just made that up. There's never been a character that was cut because it was part of a combined character. You're just assuming that it means something for no reason at all. You could just as easily say "Snake is likely gone because he's a third party character". There's no past cut third party characters to back this up, and in fact Sonic returning suggests the very opposite. Just like ZSS and Charizard returning suggests the opposite for Squirtle and Ivysaur.
Try to understand, there's absolutely no evidence to suggest that either Snake or Ivysaur/Squirtle are gone (outside of the select screen limit). Therefore, you're being a huge hypocrite when you say that only about Snake, but then point to Squirtle and Ivysaur and say "But they're different and are less likely to be included because of this arbitrary reason that I just made up right now".
I hope that makes it clear, because in all honesty I'm getting tired of repeating myself. I hope you finally realize what's wrong with what you've been saying.
Also, didn't read that ending. You're a nice guy too
If you don't care, then why did you join the conversation in the first place?
Ha, those early reactions to Snake are great XD
I only plan to buy figures for characters I use, so I'm going to wait for Falco, Luigi, Greninja, Palutena, and Wolf. As for the game use of the Amiibo, I'll probably only train the Falco figure and give him the same customization that I pick when I play Falco.
Pretty cool.
Pic of the day. Pac-Man's standard special move, Bonus Fruit. As you charge this move, the bonuses will change, and all of them have different characteristics and movement patterns when thrown. The bonuses cycle in the same order as in the original game, and the charge-up period doubles once you cycle beyond the orange.
You know who we need as an AT?
The Black Knight from Fire Emblem. He should be a one hit KO, so it'd just be a game of keep away as long as he's out.
Hell, make him a stage boss for Colosseum.
You're getting him as a sticker again and you'll like it dammit!
Surprisingly enough, since Ike was updated to his Radiant Dawn design I have more faith in the Black Knight being represented in Smash as a boss/AT considering he's the most prominent antagonist across Ike's games.
It'd be especially funny if Snake does indeed get announced last, and right before launch, but then they inexplicably omit the "Kept you waiting" line.
