One of the rare time i like male morgan lol. Cute
 
I disagree. In fact, another reason why I think the leak is fake is because there is no Rhythm Heaven stage, which would be perfect for Smash. Let me guess, that's DLC too, rite?

I see a lot of this, so I don't mean to point you out in particular, but...

You shouldn't be judging the merits of the leak based on whether or not you think it portrays the Smash content you want to see. You should be judging it based on how authentic and accurate it is, how conceivable it is, and the evidence stacked for/against it.

No personal taste should ever become a factor.
 
Serious question to everyone on team fake:

On a scale of 1 to 10, how upset will you be if the pictures (not the 'DLC Leak') are real?
Remember, there is still potential for 5-6 characters to be unlocked (or be made DLC), if the DLC part isn't real.

10 is: I'm not going to buy smash anymore
5 is: I'm indifferent
1 is: I'm actually really happy with the leaked roster

Team real need not apply please!

Dr. Mario and Dark Pit was disappointing to see. What's going to be Dr. Mario's customs?
Throwing a giant slow-moving pill?

Other than that, I like the other characters in the leak.
 
I'm surprised so many people actually have a problem with Duck Hunt. He always seemed like a great choice to me for a retro rep, everyone loves duck hunt! Enough people even outright hate him, which shows how well known he is. The only reason insist expect him was because I didn't want to get my hopes up, he's right up there with Sheriff for me.

Also, for people hating on the clones... If you don't like Lucina, play Awakening and you might like her more. If you don't like Dark Pit, play Uprising. If you don't like Dr. Mario, play Melee. If Lucina is any indication of how much effort goes into these characters, you should be almost as mad at ZSS's shorts alt as you are at something like Dark Pit lol, Dark Pit just gets a screen slot.
 
It's not about if he'd be a fun character to play or not he simply does not deserve to be in Smash Bros and I'm afraid he will be.

I think the idea of characters "deserving" spots is kinda silly. You don't think R.O.B., or Mr. G&W were fun surprises? Why does it matter if they deserve to be in or not?

The more weirder and out-there picks the better, imo.
 
One of my issues with the stage choices is not just that there's Mario bias, but stages like Golden Plains are for no one's benefit.

This is something I can agree with. Brawl had a Mario bias too, but at least the stages were unique. Golden Plains and 3D Land are almost identical aesthetically, and Rainbow Road looks like it was ripped directly from Mario Kart 7. If they were that desperate to reuse assets from other games, couldn't they at least give us a generic Bowser's Castle stage instead of Grasslands #5? If DK gets another jungle stage in the Wii U version, I swear to God...
 
Also, for people hating on the clones... If you don't like Lucina, play Awakening and you might like her more.
I did, and that's why I hate her
and every Awakening main character.
Though I like her inclusion since I consider her a freebie, and I can't really say no to that. I like clones anyway.
 
All stages that aren't FD or Battlefield will have an icon, we just haven't seen Tomodachi Life's yet while Living Room was covered in the direct and the icon was shown then.

Well the Mii's also seem to use the Smash icon as theirs, so if this is looked at as a "Mii" stage I wouldn't be surprised if it just used the Smash icon as well.
 
I believe its because Miis doesn't have an icon.. Idk, maybe :p

Are... Are you saying my opinion doesn't matter?

We used to be friends

You changed, Horizon

lol
Your bad opinions don't matter! D:<

we've all changed Ahnez, its these threads, they've changed us, corrupted us

For the record I don't hate Lucina. I hate her things she calls boots. Yuck.

What if we take her boots...and give them to Neiteio!?
 
Duck hunt dog being in the game doesn't mean the leak is real.

If his render is exactly the same, then the leak is real.

Anyone who says it's a coincidence or has some other story is just fooling themselves.
 
Lol, I guess that's fair. Which character did you like if you don't mind me asking?
Mostly the more minor characters like Virion and Lon'Qu, but I'm not really a fan of any of them lol. I actually didn't like Awakening at all, or at least not compared to the other Fire Emblem games I played.

EDIT: On second thought I found Walhart and Basilio to be cool guys.

I am more fond of the GBA games and prior entries. FE9 was alright, but FE10 was kinda meh to me.

And story was weak for awakening and I noticed a lot of the art direction didn't have the same feel. I was slightly irritated when the eyes and mouth never moved anymore. Then again I can't remember if FE9 and FE10 did that.
 
Ah yeah that's right. Weird that the Mii's use the Smash icon when it could've just all been bundled under the Mii icon.

Yeah, I wish that they all used a single Mii icon. Then I wouldn't have to worry about the Ice Climbers and a Rhythm Heaven character so much because every other Smash Run enemy would have a playable character counterpart from its series, but technically Yellow Ghost doesn't because it's from the Find Mii series while Miis are classified as the Smash series, lol.
 
Golden Plains has an interesting gimmick though. It might get old after a while but I can see it being fun every now and then.

It's an all right gimmick, but who asked Sakurai to make a stage on probably one of the least popular Mario platform games? I mean, let's look at Mario's history of stages!

64: Levels based on Super Mario Bros. and 64. Obviously, the source material justifies the stages included.

Melee: Levels based on Super Mario World, Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario 64. Again, all games that are held in pretty high esteem by Mario fans.

Brawl: Levels based on the Mario Kart series, Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros., Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario World. While Sunshine is arguably inferior to the rest, and Luigi's Mansion is considered fairly weird, both are really logical choices from games that people liked a lot.

Wii U: New Super Mario Bros. U and Super Mario Galaxy 2. Makes up for the stage based on New SMB with its stage based on SMG2.

3DS: Super Mario 3D Land, New Super Mario Bros. 2, Paper Mario series, Mario Kart series. Nothing from Super Mario Bros. 3, nothing from the Super Mario Land games, nothing from Mario Tennis or Mario Golf. A lot of people liked 3D Land - myself included - but I'd give it up in a heartbeat for an SMB3 stage.

It just feels that the source material for the 3DS version is worse on average than the source material for all of the other games.
 
Doesn't change the fact they look like ass.

I like to think that the FE devs for Awakening realized their artstyle was complete crap and deigned to give every humanoid unit peg legs.

I don't know. He's the same guy who designed the characters in No More Heroes and those were awesome as well.
And had feet :P
 
Well since Miis are also used for Multi Man they are very much a Smash character in this rather than representing an existing Mii property. That's likely why Mii Quest and Tomodachi will have separate icons even if they can be both classes as Mii games they are also distinctively their own series.
 
I think the 3DS Mario stages are mostly fine. I could really do without Golden Plains, but the rest are perfectly fine.

If the stage roster leak holds true, though, yeah, that roster's pretty damn hard to defend. Hopefully the devs were putting more effort into more original stages for the Wii U version.
 
What's going on in here?
Positivity and happiness? Good.
Please, never change your avatar

lol

Searching for those false friendships will only lead you to nothingness. You should turn back while you still can, otherwise, we will be enemies next time we meet.
I'm just warning you because we were friends..

lol

LOL

Yeah, the GBA games are what I like the most. Never tried the Ike games, the only other ones are FE4 and Awakening, but I never beat the former.

I don't really consider FE to be strong in story telling and characterization from the ones I played, but I thought Awakening was particularly weak. Honestly most of the characters that I liked, I liked for their design lol.


All said and done, I always liked Advance Wars better. Now, about AW content in Smash...

I like to imagine that there are still stages left to be unlocked. If there are four more characters to unlock (Dixie Kong, Ridley, Mewtwo, and Chorus Kids), then we could maybe see a new DK stage, a new Metroid stage, a new Pokémon stage, and an RH stage.

Well FE:A is pretty much Fire Emblem: Waifu edition so meh. I'm debating whether FE:A or any Sakura Wars game is worse.

As for AW content. Probably an assist trophy filled with Infantry. Pfft.

------------------

Horizon hasn't changed. Horizon's horizon's have simply been broadened.
 
I really liked Awakening's story because the child aspect gave it something unique to focus on. As a whole, Fire Emblem's gameplay keeps it from having a really compelling fantasy story (like Game of Thrones), so it makes sense to go for something completely different. That way it doesn't feel as much like you're getting a watered down experience.
