Alright SmashGAF, If you had a choice of a DLC pack, what would it be?
B.) Villains DLC
- Hades
- Ridley (Super Metroid)
- King K. Rool
- True Ganondorf/ Demise
- Fawful

Hades would be fantastic. His portrayal in Uprising was just too good to be confined to a single title. At the very least, I hope he'll show up as a stage hazard in the WiiU version

 

[KLatin Scelus]

contrarian would be D

Nope, wait that's E. nevermind.

 

[The Captain]

C....I guess
we really need to stop with these polls though

Sixth poll that I'm running!

Will these polls stop?
A) Yes
B) No

Poll ends when we get the next poll. EDIT: It looks like this poll has ended the bet of whether or not we'd get more polls! Congratulations to the one winner, The Captain!
Remember: no avatar bets are tied to this! Vote as you please!

Results:
A)
B) The Captain

Links to previous polls:
-November 21 release date confirmation
-Character reveal date
-Next character reveal
-October 3's POTD
-Character DLC release



In all seriousness, I'll stop.

 

[theprodigy]

contrarian would be D

E

well not any more I guess

 

[Troubled Bat]

The Captain, needing basically 20 more posts. To be number one.. Looks like you're almost there.

B

theprodigy stop spamming it up with '/s' posts.

Hades is great....but Viridi is better

 

[Jawmuncher]

Hades is great....but Viridi is better

/s you forgot it.

 

[Ryce]

Though the Dragon King influence is still quite strong

I've never understood this. There are only two or three Dragon King screens in existence, and none of the attacks being utilized in them match up to anything Captain Falcon does. None of the character models look like SSB64 Falcon either. The only similarity is that Falcon is a fist-fighting human.

I've played F-Zero for as long as I remember, and I definitely don't get that feel from him in Smash.

Really? I think he plays as much like an F-Zero vehicle as a human being possibly could -- the speed, power, sharp turns, fire, and so on.

 

[theprodigy]

/s you forgot it.

no /s needed here, I'm completely serious

 

[Ahnez]

Hades is great....but Viridi is better

Good thing the best KI character is already playable

Don't know about him resembling a vehicle, but he definitely is the embodiment of what F-Zero is all about - the speed, insanity... and sheer awesomeness of the franchise =]

 

[The Bankslammer]

i think that f-zero x is rad and captain falcon in smash is rad so they did a good job

 

[Storm Kyleis]

Alright SmashGAF, If you had a choice of a DLC pack, what would it be?

A.) Returning DLC
- Pokemon Trainer
- Lucas
- Mewtwo
- Wolf
- Ice Climbers

B.) Villains DLC
- Hades
- Ridley (Super Metroid)
- King K. Rool
- True Ganondorf/ Demise
- Fawful

C.) Third-Partiers DLC
- Bomberman
- Simon Belmont
- Rayman
- Solid Snake
- Tails/ Shadow (Commemorating the Sonic series' second Smash appearance)

D.) Odd-Ones Out DLC
- Bandana Dee
- Charging Chuck
- Joey's Rattata
- Adeleine
- Anthony Higgs
- Paper Mario

Oh lord. I'd pick A and leave the villains for Smash 5.

Sakurai said it's hard to bring back cut characters, because converting data from old games is very time expensive. There's always another chance for newcomers, but cut characters are most likely lost forever.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

Edit: God damn! Everytime!

 

[The Captain]

Good thing the best KI character is already playable

Spoiler

When was Viridi confirmed playable?

 

[theprodigy]

Good thing the best KI character is already playable

Spoiler

I dunno if you're referring to Pit or Palutena here

Spoiler

or Dark Pit

+1

Viridi da best

hell yeah *high five*

 

[Timeaisis]

Dark Pit is actually the best Uprising character.

 

[The Captain]

I would do a poll on the best Kid Icarus character, but we already know the answer.

Spoiler

It's Viridi.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I dunno if you're referring to Pit or Palutena here

Spoiler

or Dark Pit

It's obviously Dark Pit.
The most loved smash addition ever made.

 

[theprodigy]

Dark Pit is actually the best Uprising character.

certainly the best guy named Pit, at least

 

[The Captain]

It's great how a poll on Smash Bros. DLC wants leads to a "discussion" of the best Kid Icarus character.

I put "discussion" in quotes because there is only one right answer.

 

[oreomunsta]

Dark Pit is actually the best Uprising character.

Hmmmmmmmmmm...... he at least has the best theme music

 

[theprodigy]

It's obviously Dark Pit.

uh huh

[theprodigy]

dude just edit your original post and repost at most on every new page

 

[The Captain]

I just edit the posts and leave it at that. No need to keep reposting it.

 

[Jawmuncher]

uh huh

I'm hoping that I can afford a ticket out of here soon.

 

[PushDustIn]

I've been making a list of all the collectibles in the game. I still need to go through and delete the furigana from the Japanese. Send me a message if you have any suggestions or would like to help.

I see

Is the T. rex hat not there? What a shame - best hat of all the StreetPass options.

 

[Karsticles]

The Captain, if you really care about poll results, and don't just want to spam the thread with a bunch of useless crap, make a Google Form or something for everyone to fill out with all of your polling questions.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

dude just edit your original post and repost at most on every new page

I keep the results on "Notepad", copy & paste to a different post, and then post only once a page.

But yeah, maybe I'll do that.

 

[Golnei]

I've never understood this. There are only two or three Dragon King screens in existence, and none of the attacks being utilized in them match up to anything Captain Falcon does. None of the character models look like SSB64 Falcon either. The only similarity is that Falcon is a fist-fighting human.

It's not anywhere near ironclad, but it always seemed plausible, at least - especially considering we know so little about the game's development, it explains an odd character inclusion and gives another reason for Sakurai preferring to play as Falcon and derivative movesets thereof. And I do like how fitting it is that Falcon could have possibly received his moveset due to having a similar build to a character that was already ingame.

Hmmmmmmmmmm...... he at least has the best theme music

It's definitely up there, but the Chaos Kin and Dog's themes outdo it.

uh huh

how is bizarro world btw Jawmuncher?

I wouldn't mind living there - I hear they got a version of Other M that was pretty good.

 

[Neoxon]

E

What makes you think that?

 

[theprodigy]

So to actually get on topic, how do you think challenges will be in the Wii U version?

 

[The Captain]

The Captain, if you really care about poll results, and don't just want to spam the thread with a bunch of useless crap, make a Google Form or something for everyone to fill out with all of your polling questions.

... I don't care about these poll results. I just use them for discussion purposes.

 

[-Horizon-]

Links to previous polls:

Gonna go with B on this one.

 

[theprodigy]

... I don't care about these poll results. I just use them for discussion purposes.

Don't do it here.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

So to actually get on topic, how do you think challenges will be in the Wii U version?

Beat All-Star Mode on Hard difficulty w/ Lucario without getting hit/ hurt.

I want to see this done.

 

[IntelliHeath]

No interfering in the posting contest! I'll win fairly.

The Captain - 590 and TheProdigy - 610. 3rd place are like 400-500 posts less than both of you.

I wish people would cut it out with spamming and overusing the polls.

The Captain, if you really care about poll results, and don't just want to spam the thread with a bunch of useless crap, make a Google Form or something for everyone to fill out with all of your polling questions.

Agreed.

... I don't care about these poll results. I just use them for discussion purposes.

Then why doing polls if you are not taking the polls serious. It cluttered up our thread badly.

 

[theprodigy]

it's gotta be on hard otherwise this isn't so bad

....and if it is holy shit that's hard

 

[The Captain]

What makes you think that?

I also answered E) No character DLC because I think adding in character DLC would unbalance the game.

My predictions for DLC: costumes, trophies, music. That's about it.

 

[Sponge]

Trophy DLC would be so pointless if you ask me. No one is gonna shell out money for a trophy unless it's attached to said costumes. Music would be cool if it also accompanied stages.

 

[Karsticles]

... I don't care about these poll results. I just use them for discussion purposes.

Polls and discussion are borderline antithetical to one another. There's nothing discussion-like about a bunch of people posting a letter one after another.

In general, this website is not big on polling/voting:

Don't make garbage threads
If you are posting a discussion topic, think about whether the subject has merit. Topics which exist only to ask a yes/no question with no room for actual discussion, or topics which exist only encourage subsequent replies consisting of lists or rankings are generally discouraged. Note that this category also includes unsanctioned "Vote for your favourite" threads

I'm not trying to backseat moderate you, I'm just cluing you in to something you likely don't know about.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

....and if it is holy shit that's hard

Damn, I knew I was forgetting something.

I was thinking of saying Little Mac or Rosalina due to their learning curves, but I knew Lucario would be better.

 

[theprodigy]

Speaking of All-Star, does Easy/Normal/Hard correspond to 3.0/6.0/9.0 like it did for Boss Battles in KI:U?

 

[Muzy72]

1-2 polls a day is fine, but anymore is kinda pushing it lol.

I'm fine with whatever the DLC is, but I hope they prioritize Ice Climbers/Mewtwo/Wolf/Lucas over anyone else.

As for newcomers, I've gotten pretty much every newcomer I wanted in the base game (Mega Man, Rosalina, Palutena, Lucina, Shulk, Dark Pit), but Dixie, Chorus Kids, and the Inklings would be nice.

 

[The Captain]

Then why doing polls if you are not taking the polls serious. It cluttered up our thread badly.

So far I've only made five actual poll posts - the last one was a joke one.
I don't repost any of the results, I just edit the original posts. I try to keep things clean.

And I just do these polls for fun, I like seeing what everyone thinks and I like seeing the bets. That's it. And sometimes it does lead to discussions.

I'll stop with the polls though.
