We can't even get a reaction out of frog guy. He's banned.

I was alluding to him, I don't actually think that's his name lol.
 
But Game&Watch has some sort of history behind it. Jigglypuff was just popular in the 1st season of the Pokemon show, she was never good/used in the videogames or trading card games. It just makes me question why from the original 151 why did Sakurai pick Jigglypuff?

My guess is he picked Jigglypuff deliberately as a left-field character. We know how much Sakurai values uniqueness and fun, so here's a character no one would ever expect to see on a fighting game roster, but who can have a good moveset. In a way, Jigglypuff encapsulates what Smash is all about.

Anime I assume. And the fact she's not that hard to create since she's just a pink ball like kirby. :P
 
Jigglypuff was the second to 3rd most popular pokemon at the time. Other than Pikachu it was that or meowth being promoted by the Pokemon company mostly through the show. Puff was the route they took though with Meowth Balling it up.
 
Honestly tho, do people who want Ridley just want a really small version? Bowser is currently the biggest character, but even at that size Ridley would be too small.

Jigglypuff is not only popular in the 1st season of the Pokemon show. Apparently Jigglypuff was (and probably still is, though not as big as back then) insanely popular in Japan as secondary mascot character to Pokemon after Pikachu.

I never heard of that Meowth thing, but I know for a fact that I think on the old Smash 64 website, Sakurai mentioned that he wanted to include a second flying character beyond Kirby. Obviously Jigglypuff fit the bill, both in terms of abilities, importance to its franchise and popularity. The game originally never was intended to be released outside of Japan, so it made sense to include a character that was well known in Japan.

Jigglypuff actually had a pretty decent run in the Pokémon anime, showing up pretty regularly until the end of the Johto season and making infrequent cameos since then.
 
Well I'm a girl

And thus the private message spam began.

Kidding.

Guy got banned though because he was kinda shitting up the thread and a mod asked him to cool it and he refused.


On Topic though! What random out there music do you think we'll be getting in this game? Brawl had Tetris randomly there with no stage or anything.

I'm hoping for at least one Castlevania song. Hopefully on a possible Bowser/Ganon's castle stage.

There's been bigger height differences in fighting games. A Ridley 1.5 times the size of Bowser could possibly work, if they actually balanced for it. And they've actually been balancing big characters this game to not be shit, so I think they could pull it off.

This on Game and Watch stage.
 
If you want Jigglypuff out of the Smash Bros, I think you're a horrible person and you deserve nothing but hatred and contempt.

If Rayman can be a trophy they can fit one JSR song on a Sonic stage

I'm hoping that the licensing agreements that have already been made would be enough to get some Bayonetta, Ace Attorney, Okami, Rayman Legends or Beyond Good & Evil music in the game.
 
I personally really really hate Jigglypuff, but w/e I guess I can continue dealing with it for another 15 years...

Okay, be honest here.
Would you rather have a roster of, let's say 50 characters, with Jigglypuff included, or a roster of 49 characters but without Jigglypuff?
Because that's pretty much exactly what cutting Jigglypuff (if it were planned from the start) would amount to. There would be no character to replace that "slot".

A couple ideas:

- Keeping Pace is a great battle theme, and it would give the game some well-deserved Paper Mario representation.
- Bamboozle Village from Wario Land Shake It. Another underrepresented series, and since the Wario stages will almost certainly be WarioWare-based, a song is the next best thing.
- Route 4 from Pokemon X/Y. Easily my favorite tune from that game.
 

Remixed or as is though? Hmmmm

And some Streets of Rage too please!!!!

As much as I hate scrolling stages I'd love a scrolling music stage from Rayman Legends

Well, I mean, we already know there's a NiGHTS Sonic Alt.

I personally expect there to either be a Street Fighter or Tekken Assist Trophy as well.
