Takamaru (Mysterious Murasame Castle) Confirmed as Assist Trophy for Smash WiiU/3DS

I forget all about this thread.

I'm pretty pleased that Takamaru became assist trophy since I was concerned that he would have missed the boat to be a part of assist trophy or character, but finally! Takamaru being assist trophy is way better than being motionless trophy, so cheer everyone!

I don't think I will wait for other 5-7 years since I'm pretty much emphasized that Smash 4 is more likely to be my last Smash.
 
Man if people get this mad over a relatively obscure character, they're going to set fire to buildings when Ridley gets confirmed as a stage hazard aren't they?

But that comment? That's just too far for me. This isn't salt in a wound, that's like walking away from a disagreement and having someone spit in your face.

I never demanded or expected or anything of the sort. But my courtesy is now over.

Sakurai can FUCK. RIGHT. OFF.

I'm hoping this is a joke comment, because if not, you're taking this way too personally/seriously... :/

And with another five-ten minutes reflecting, I just realized something:



I just got Lyn'd THREE times in my lifetime:

- I wanted a draw-sheathe swordsman/woman since pre-Brawl and latched on to Lyn because it was exciting times
- Lyn's an assist trophy
- I see Smash 4 is coming up and don't think much about Lyn because of how long it's been since Fire Emblem 7
- Lyn is featured prominently as an Assist Trophy in the Smash Direct
- I continue to show support for Takamaru as a character that would fill that niche just as well while bringing some history with him. The moment the SmashGAF thread starts talking about it
- Takamaru is an assist trophy

To be Azure J is to suffer.

Same here, except the Takamaru part. Lyn trolled twice over. T^T

Also, that gif reminds me... I need to finish Nichijou someday soon.
 
Back when I posted in SmashGAF there was a few of us who really wanted him in but there's way too many sword users in the game so it makes sense. At least he's got some presence though so I'm content.

Calm down, Sakurai doesn't owe you anything.
 
King K Rool sweatn' x me also

If the Japanese version releases without delay I'm pretty sure Sakurai will release everything D:

Hold onto your butts.

But damn at that timing , everyone was hyped lol

Something wrong, Takamaru fans? You come here prepared to play a Samurai, and instead you found an Assist Trophy?

Condolences to the Takamaru fans. As an Ashley/Midna fan, I've been there :P

get some professional help, mate
 
Not surprising. Sucks for the fans but there are already so many characters (wielding swords at that) and space is tight, it was a massive stretch to ever think he'd be playable this time around.

The good news is, he's making the climb into the series and is a solid enough character to actually justify having on a roster, so he'll be in next go around I'm sure (small relief for anyone wanting him any time soon).

There's really only one character I'll be disappointed in not seeing at this point and that's Ridley. Maybe he's in, maybe not. Other than that, the roster is pretty damn stacked as it is and any future announcements are just icing on the cake. When Sakurai checked off Mega Man and Little Mac (and separated Samus and ZSS), he pretty much made this iteration of Smash for me.
 
I'm so disappointed that he's not going to be playable. He could have been an amazing character but at least he's the best next thing: an assist trophy. I really hope he'll be playable next time along with Dillon.
 
I pretty much never expected him to be playable, but I feel sorry for Takamaru fans all the same. I know all too well what its like to have their favorite characters AT'd/Trophy'd.
 
Oh what? I am going to have to say that Sakurai made the wrong choice on this department.

Get rid of the stupid Mii fighters or at least the Marth clone if you need the roster spot.

I hope he become playable in Smash Bros 5.

Oooh what movie is that? I kinda want to watch it.
 
Dillon and Takamaru, two of my most wanted characters for Smash 4, denied a playable spot!?... Well, at least they're in. And this is surprisingly timely given Neiteio's thread yesterday... Hm...

Neiteio, work your magic and make a thread about Prince Sable getting into Smash!!

10/10.
 
Well, he got way more than I expected for sure; I didn't even know who he was before the Smash thread, and even Rayman got only a regular trophy. If I were a supported I'd be pretty happy right now, considering. Hilarious pic comment though, haha.

Repeat with me:

There are no roster slots.
There are no roster slots.
There are no roster slots.
There are no roster slots.
THERE ARE NO ROSTER SLOTS.

Yes, there's a limited time and budget for the roster, but Sakurai doesn't brush characters away while there's still plenty of time and budget left, thinking: "Nah, I've decided to include X characters and that number stays at X". That's just not how it works.

Besides, Lucina is a horrible example. She was almost finished as an Alt. Costume for Marth when Sakurai decided that her not having a sweetspot on the sword was enough to deserve an own place in the CSS, so all it really took to make her an own character was to create some art and rename the files (if it works similar to Brawl).

You a memba now, homie!!! Congrats.

OT: i'm glad we're still seeing new Assist Trophies. I thought we were pretty much out of them.

Heh, Thankies. I think I hit membership about the time they released all those screenshots for comic-con and stuff :3

I think there's still a good many ATs to go; whether we'll get to see them in PotDs or have to wait for the game to come out however is another matter :P

I'll have to think up who I'm mildly interested in, and use that as a base for my predictions of them since we've already got who I REALLY want playable as assists XD

I don't think we'll see Sakura Samurai at all. That would make 3 quick draw eastern assists. I think Mallow may come.. if that's the pushmo/crashbox guys name. I can't remember. I think we'll see King Hippo. Andddddddd... that's all I have, haha.

Yeah, Ashley and Midna being ATs kinda made me -.-
I think the pool of previous trophies is fertile grounds for new ATs though such as excite bike and whatnot. There must be a heck of a lot because Sakurai's already hinted the selection won't be the same between the 3DS and Wii-U :o
