Oh God there's fanart

Oh hey the fanart actually makes them look good.
 
I was only half-serious about Mewtwo. The character never appealed to me, neither in Smash nor his other appearances, but I totally get why people like him. It is a little surprising to me that he has so much support this time around. I guess this is what it'll be like for Lucas when the next Smash is announced.

No its not. And mewtwo is awesome, Jiggs is a boring character, should've never been in the game in the first place. Plus mewtwos megas make him even cooler

what a post

Why does everyone love Kirby so much? He isn't even that good, and he was such a boring character in the tv show.

This is all Sakurai's doing, isn't it

I can keep going, if you'd like.

I don't think you and I watched the same show

Also, actual fucking screenshot from Mega Man PC.

Why do all those late 80/early 90 PC games have that same artstyle? I'm not sure how to describe it, other than, it just looks weird.

Both Jiggs and Mewtwo should be in. It's that fucking overpushed, overexposed, overrated zaprat that should be cut.

Are you talking about Pikachu? I don't think they'll cut the mascot of Pokemon. Not happening.

Pikachu will be the cut the day Mario and Kirby are.

I'd take Mewtwo over Lucario. I don't get why he's popular, but I also haven't played any games he is from.

So...it's Jigglypuff that stole Mewtwo's spot this time?

Lucario got a good PR Guy.

Clearly not good enough!

It is because he is really important in X and Y, he is the main character on even more movies now and got 2 megas (Only him and charizard did). I want both Mewtwo and Jiggly in the game. I love Mewtwo in Project M (He was kind of shit in melee) and I always loved Jiggly's moveset (But they could make Sing useful this time...)
 
I'm really surprised he didn't come back
Theres still hope that he's in.
Plz Sakurai

I watched the extended lord of the rings trilogy and the two hobbit films yesterday, it's amazing how bad the hobbit films are compared to lotr.

This has nothing to do with the topic at all, I just wanted to say it.
meh everyone on GAF says this but I dont see a massive drop in quality and ive enjoyed every single one.

yeah sadly

this is one of those times where "fanboys bitch about a low review score" has some valid reasoning behind it

that review is pure shit written by someone who doesn't even know what he's talking about
one of the best 2D platformers ive ever played. The difficulty issues really amazed me since im hardly a pro player and I 100% TF.

*High five*

Well....she was relevant and interesting in the show when Smash 64 came out, she should've been cut in Brawl like she was supposed to tbh.
I dont neccesarily want to see any character cut but I think Jigglypuff should be a low priority. I would rather have seen Wolf or Lucas in than Jigglypuff, tbh. Brawl and 4 are likely going to have cuts due to time constraints and I would've rather Sakurai and team spent more time and effort on other characters before Jigglypuff. Also there are so many more deserving pokemon to make it into Smash before Jigglypuff.

How old are you?

The First Movie came out at the height of Pokemon's popularity (at least in my school), and Mewtwo was the first real villain. Boring character? What? He was intimidating and had a great design, and also managed to be a sympathetic character. He was and is one of the most popular Pokemon ever.

Nobody stole anybody's spot, but when it comes to the Pokemon reps obviously there can't be too many. Lucario is extremely popular these days and while I'm personally not a fan, I guess he's earned his spot. Jigglypuff was made popular through the anime, which she hasn't even appeared in for more than ten years afaik.

Plus I just hate her moveset in Smash. Not fun.

Yeah, hopefully they'll be cut soon too, but I know it isn't happening as long as they have Sakurai's ear. The product has gotten stale because they've been at the top for too long, and they're just holding down up and coming talent like Olimar, Falco and Ike. Hell, you know that Ice Climbers and Snake would still be here and getting the pushes they deserve if Mario & pals didn't play politics backstage to get them fired.

Oh, I was definitely around when Mewtwo was popular. You couldn't go five minutes at my school without hearing the word "Pokemon." But even then I didn't like Mewtwo; I didn't like his design, and I was never a fan of the movie at all. When I was a kid, Jessie & James were the only Pokemon villains I cared about.

I've heard, incidentally, that Mewtwo was a more interesting character in the original version of the film, and that he was made more obviously evil in the American version. Maybe if I'd seen the original, then, I'd like him more.

As in "Heathcliff"
I'm not shocked in the slightest that he didn't come back. What I am shocked about is that Sakurai apparently decided that, of all the cut Melee characters, Dr. Mario apparently was the one that needed to come back.

Dr. Mario, Dark Pit and Lucina were planned to be the alt costumes but they have free time to change those alt costumes into clones, but not enough time to make full-fledged character.

Roy, Mewtwo, Dixie, Toon Zelda/Sheik(Tetra) and Plu&Min might requiring a full-fledged character plan comparing to Dr. Mario.
 
I always liked Mewtwo in as he was the closest character to being a villain in the Pokemon universe.

I would love for the Pokemon roster to be made up of Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Charizard, Mewtwo, Lucario and Greninja
and Pichu ;_;

And on the flip side, mew was more of a jerk apparently.

I still want to see what the original version of The First Movie (back when it was meant to be the series finale) would have been like.
 
Lucina only at 403? Eff all of you that isn't talking about her consistently.
can you check how many times Miku is brought up? :3c
98 times right now.

How were you able to separate things like Mario and Dr. Mario, without looking at each Dr. entry and checking? Gaf's search probably has more options than I thought.

Any attempt to separate differing uses like 'link' as a URL, or "pit" as a bottomless pit, etc?
I counted Mario, then I subtracted "Dr. Mario", "Paper Mario", etc. Unfortunately there's no way to know how "link" and "pit" are used.

I need these 24 days to hurry the fuck up.


I remember when it was 51 days, felt like a week ago.

Hype as fuck.

Who's excited?
Me! I'm excited!

Kinda

I really can't believe it's only 24 days. I've been trying not to even think about that number until the Japanese version is out, because I was worried about how big it would be. I really need to ask off work if I'm gonna. <.<

Guys, don't misunderstand clones vs new chars. If the alt for a clone is already there, like Lucina WAS, then converting to their own slot is little work. Changing one property isn't that bad.

Plus, their animations were already done and didn't need more work.

New characters are probably hundreds of times more work.
(Exaggeration, but tens definitely)

There are several sources that talk about how much work it is to add new characters to fighting games.
