Can't Let you cut me Sakurai, Wolf for DLC

[Sonic Poke]

I prefer Wolf now. It's not because he's one of my mains, but Falco is a two times secret veteran. I think he'll remain secret, only announced post launch. While I think Wolf deserves to one of the unlockables revealed pre launch.

I may be wrong anyway.

 

[ImOnlyHereToTalkStarFox]

why would he not be back? after all he is a major character in the starfox series there is nothing mentioned about him being cut from the official devs I don't see the whole hoopla about krystal she only appeared in 2 games while wolf has appeared in every game except 1

now if we see a wolfen we will know he's back

Cough* 3 games Cough* Sorry there man had to correct that.

 

[Foxy Alopex]

I just hope he returns because he is my third favorite character in brawl.

 

[europeanguy]

personaly i want wolf to come back even if they dont change him at all i have spent hours beating my friends (haha friends like i have more then one) with him he is perfect the way he is.... but adding some changes to his moves to stop people thinking he is a clone when he is just so much more wouldnt hurt

All he needs is new specials and a final smash, then he's completely different

I know how you feel. Beating your friends with Wolf He just has that feel that makes him so fun to play as. He does need a new final smash though.

 

[GunGunW]

I think Wolf should have a final smash where he calls in an air strike from Star Wolf.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I may have soem evidence or at least conjecture of Wolf's return. You know Wolf's Assault voice actor Grant Goodeve also goes the voice of the Engineer in Team Fortress? Well in a TF2 short a little while ago he was unavailable so Nolan North filled in. Why was that? For all I know he could've just stubbed his toe but it's something to think about.

He only has like ten lines to say but any amount of voice acting could last a day. There's a reasonable possibility you're right.
It sure is suspicious.
Or he just had a migraine and didn't show up for work that day....
Who knows?

Don't forget The secret transmissions. That's gotta add a bunch of dialogue.

 

[Katty Shepherd]

Don't forget The secret transmissions. That's gotta add a bunch of dialogue.

Plus that.
Voice acting is a lot harder than we give it credit for. I believe an episode for an anime takes about a days worth of work. So Wolf could take the VA away from TF long enough for them have to have a shoe-in.
Or he had a cold.
What a mystery.
If Grant Goodeve was working on Wolf than he couldn't say so that makes it even more ambiguous.

 

[Prince17]

Wouldn't they use Wolf's Starfox 64 or Starfox 64 3D's voice actor instead of Assault? It seems the most likely to me since Fox apparently has the same voice from 64.

 

[Ultinarok]

If Wolf is cut, I won't use ANY of the Starfox characters.

Fox and Falco are cool though. Fun to play as, but a fraction as much as Wolf. I still play them both occasionally.

 

[guedes the brawler]

i hope Wolf doesn't get a crappy new down-b like what happened with Brawl!Falco

 

[Ryu Myuutsu]

i hope Wolf doesn't get a crappy new down-b like what happened with Brawl!Falco

Falco's Down B in Brawl is actually good though.

All he needs is new specials and a final smash, then he's completely different

Wolf is completely different already, so he needs no other special moves. A final smash perhaps, but it would be fine either way.

All of his specials are just modified versions of fox's though, mostly the up and side B but still

looky looky

Oops JC just accidently hinted Falco or Wolf (this was yesterday by the way)

I don't see how that hints at falco or wolf, Am I missing something here?

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

Talking about fox custimaztion

And the first 2 letters of the guy before he stopped may have ben maybe Wo-wait nevermind.

 

[mark welford]

this could be the very hint we wolf fans have been looking for but don't get your hopes up too high at the same time be optimistic about his chances after that slip up

 

[europeanguy]

this could be the very hint we wolf fans have been looking for but don't get your hopes up too high at the same time be optimistic about his chances after that slip up

if indeed this is a slip up of almost revealing wolf then he must be returning because they cannot just remove him now so far in the development plus why would they even do that in the first place?

 

[Walgen]

How could anybody think that Wolf isn't part of this game's roster?

He's no more of a clone than Lucina is. He's part of a group of boss fights in Star Fox 64 that have been quoted or otherwise referred to for years.

 

[Hexaped]

Wolf's side special is one of my favorite side specials in SSB. Perhaps that and Ganondorf's side special are my two most favorite. Did everyone enjoy Wolf's dash animation from SSBB? Imagine the special move variations Wolf would get!

I drool over that

 

[Morbi]

Or perhaps he confirmed hit-stun on Fox's blaster as that was what they were talking about?

Indeed. It is one of my favorites as well, second only to Flame Choke. I am more interested in Wolf's custom move-set as Fox and Falco are probably going to share similar move pools whereas Wolf, more likely than not, is going to have different specials (as per usual).

 

[Hexaped]

I hope at least one of Wolf's specials become more different from Fox's, or perhaps become something entirely different.

 

[MagnesD3]

How many people are ready to bombard sakurai/nintendo of america in here if wolf is cut with dlc requests? Just curious.

 

[Hexaped]

Don't worry. Wolf can't let Mr. Sakurai do that.

 

[Ultinarok]

Allow me to tell you the story of my journey with Wolf O' Donnell in Smash Bros.

Its 2007. The Brawl hype is soaring. I regularly visit Smashboards and read the forums, although I'm not a member. I read, analyze and speculate potential newcomers like everyone else. Among those I support are the usual, like Ridley and Paper Mario. I also find myself supporting Krystal. She makes sense to me, everyone else's support seems to rub off on me, and I like the notion of a staff-wielding female Starfox rep. I don't even consider Wolf. I barely remember he exists, blinded by my Krystal support. The way I see it, any other Starfox rep will just be another Falco situation. I mained Falco in Melee, and was so caught up in Krystal and the notion that all clones would be cut, that I counted him out as well. I was convinced, 100%, that we'd see Fox and Krystal only.

Come 2008. Brawl is unleashed in Japan, and, to my dismay, I see that first, iconic final image of the finished roster. On that page lies Falco, and underneath him, a box labeled "new" (as the player had likely just acquired him, seen the "you have every fighter!" message, and immediately taken a screenshot for the internet) over top of Wolf. I observe the Dojo, and am naive when I read Falco and Wolf's pages and discover that they are clones of Fox again. "So much wasted potential" I thought. Instead of a new, original fighter, we get TWO additional Fox's. Great. I'm disappointed a bit, needless to say. R.O.B. only amplified that.

I purchase the game, and unlock all characters. To my surprise, I take a liking to R.O.B. and come to accept him as a deserving star of the cast. The final unlock, as usual, is Wolf. I am indifferent. After getting him though, I take him for a spin just to try him out.

I'm blown away. Not only was he far more distinct than I expected, but he has some of the best looking attacks I'd ever seen. That Up Smash. That Side Smash. That Dair Meteor! WOLF FLASH APEX! I was a believer. In time, I fell in love with the character. His voice acting, his taunt (now my signature), his aggressive, feral stance, and the way he combo'ed. The way his moves felt, how satisfying they were to use. He was perfect.

Ever since, Wolf is my smash bros. mainstay. He has the fighting style I'd always wanted in Smash, and is the one I'll always use, provided he's not taken away. From complete neglect and indifference to complete dedication. That is my Wolf story. May Krystal R.I.P.

I am with you on this I have played every character except him and I said I was bored and I decided to play as him one day this story happened recently and I enjoyed every bit of him and that is why I want him

Your story inspires me, though I supported Wolf from the outset, and was ECSTATIC when he was leaked!

Personally think Starfox is deserving of four reps. I wouldn't give up on Krystal just because Wolf is far superior. =p

but this isn't the Krystal for ssb4 thread this is the we want wolf back thread

 

[Darkfur]

Yes, but that's irrelevant. Its also not the RIP Krystal thread.

My statement was a response to someone.

 

[Ultinarok]

Personally think Starfox is deserving of four reps. I wouldn't give up on Krystal just because Wolf is far superior. =p

Well the idea conveyed is that I'm no longer a Krystal supporter, because I got Wolf, who interests me far more now and is who I enjoy playing as. It was an about-face from "GO KRYSTAL! ...wait, Wolf?" to "AWWWW YEAH WOLF! Who needs Krystal?!"

 

[MagnesD3]

I need fox, wolf, falco and krystal in my life

 

[mark welford]

for a while now I have been wanting to start a petition for wolf but I do not if I want to do it now

 

[HeavyLobster]

Assuming Wolf does return, does anyone think Wolf Flash will no longer make Wolf helpless in the same way Fox Illusion no longer does with Fox? If that does happen, think about all of the possibilities it would open up. Wolf Flash could be used away from the stage as a spike. If landed onstage so that it spikes, the new mechanics would cause the opponent to bounce back up, allowing the move to act as a combo starter into Nair or shine. It would probably be risky but super-rewarding to pull off.
