    Nintendo's First Samurai: Takamaru for SSB4 (Final Request: Ask the US HW devs to add Takamaru)

    I'm glad Takamaru got in as an assist and I'm glad Duck Hunt Dog got in to get us a retro. That is one of those games that really got left the hell behind but is remembered by most oldskoolers. A fine choice and I'm glad Sakurai kept his word, with some support I'm betting we will see Takamaru...

    Nintendo's First Samurai: Takamaru for SSB4 (Final Request: Ask the US HW devs to add Takamaru)

    Sooo many good characters reduced to AT, its sort of depressing really. Not to rag on characters that have become playable but its really hard to understand Sakurai sometimes, he can literally pull movesets from thin air for other characters while characters like this who are not fully...

    Anything Can Change! Chrom for SSB4 - Closing Remarks, and an Invitation

    I think its more of the fans not realizing the situation. When it comes to designing games, certain deadlines need to be made. With a limited amount of time, that means that a limited amount of characters can be added. You then have to look at a broad introduction of characters based on...

    Character Discussion Thread

    You're not understanding the Game and Watch part, notably that they would be 2-D basic characters, that do not have a way to fight unless they draw from a series of reference to other games. The most modern version of the Chorus Men do not animate like that, in RH Fever they do not animate like...

    Character Discussion Thread

    Sakurai is already getting chewed out on twitter, most people I know of who supported as specific RH character were not happy with this choice. All that is left are people who would take what they could get out of the series and that's like saying you'll take any character out of Mario, even if...

    Character Discussion Thread

    You have no idea where I'm coming from, I got both of these games when they came out and I still don't feel that Chorus Kids is a good choice. THIS is what I'm talking about, the herd mentality is NOT liking RH, its liking the character Sakurai chose to represent the series and not listening to...

    Character Discussion Thread

    There is nothing wrong with generalizing if it's what happens most of the time, and it's mostly human nature to go with the flow. It's the only reason the situation with this character turned out the way it did, from having almost NO support, to having a busting topic.

    Character Discussion Thread

    We are not arguing about RH characters, we are arguing about the Chorus Kids. Read the post, did I tell you to do anything? I told you that it was okay to admit something. Also the issue is that Sakurai did not choose a RH character that reflected what was wanted, and that bandwagoners make it...

    Rhythm Monkey however, exceeds the Chorus Men's appearances (even making it into the Mii Plaza as a hat). There was even support for the monkey on this very board. Monkey also appeared in Game and Wario. It's okay to admit that Sakurai makes mistakes.

    That's not proof of anything except herd mentality.

    Character Discussion Thread

    Assuming the context was taken correctly for Sakruai's tweet. If he is truly that clueless (He asked why people in Japan were sending negative comments), I wonder if he actually believes he is doing people a favor by adding these characters. It just doesn't make any sense, he should know full...

    Character Discussion Thread

    What is your opinion on the fact that there was no "character fan poll" this time around? I find it very odd that the only real fan requested characters (if you look at the history of what the fandom as a whole wanted) were Mega Man, Little Mac and Villager. Everyone else was a "rising star" so...

    Character Discussion Thread

    So pretty much it's as I suspected. Higher up meddling for the roster choices. I was going to blame Japan, but it seems like they aren't even happy with the roster overall. Only like HALF of the newcomers are really fan focused based on the overall Smash community history of interest in...

    K. Rool's Kremling Kutthroats: PM BKupa666 for an Invite to the New K. Rool Thread

    That "mook" Bonkers is an actually mini boss in kirby with a set boss pattern. Not an enemy with more health. I don't see them making a larger Kremling a boss. Most of them in the Snes era don't have patterns to endure. You just jump on their heads as they walk back and forth. Given the way...
