GIMME YOUR PICKLES PRISMO
I agree with this so much. Mega Man hardly hyped me up at all. Little Mac kind of did, but it was mostly the trailer that did that. Villager, Rosalina, and Greninja are my favorite newcomers so far. I honestly love the more unexpected choices. The most anticipated characters usually seem boring to me(Aside from Ridley, K. Rool, and to a lesser extent, Palutena), so I tend to want the characters who have very small amounts of support. *looks over at Plasm Wraith*
From what I understand, the original "leaker" made a post predicting Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Mega Man, Little Mac, Pac-Man, and Miis before E3. Obviously, four out of those six happened. Sometime later, the same person apparently said that Chrom, Palutena, Shulk, Chorus Men, and a Pokemon from X and Y would be in as well.
And I'm very certain that somewhere down the line...someone is gonna try to find a way to mod in characters just like with Brawl.
I really want to see what's happening with the Ice Climbers. No doubt they're staying due to the Polar Bear in Smash Run, but will they be unable to be desynched? Will the death grabs stay? Will they finally get a useful Down Air that has a ton less ending lag? Burning questions for such cold characters.
I'm sure Ness and Falcon will be in, but Lucus is a possible cut. I think Snake is most likely to be cut next. If there are anymore cuts that is.
It'd suck if Lucas is cut, but Megaman could hopefully fill that void. Very excited for him.
Nah, I'm with you. I got Little Mac so I'm definitely more curious about the adjustments that are gonna be made to the game and the design applied now. At this point I'm also more excited to see Captain Falcon and Wario and some other veterans than any other possible newcomer.
Done.
Plot Twist: Ike is cut, but Ice Climbers are now changed to Ike Climbers, which is an Ike clone but with the double-fight Ice Zclimber mechanic.
April fools. Those don't exist.
(Ike is right next to Ice Climbers for the emoticons)
There doesn't seem to be enough room on the roster to be honest.
What now? WHAT NOW?!? The only available retro of course!
How big do you consider the final roster to be?
Quotas aside, have you heard about
I suppose the main problem that should be fixed right now is make the grabs less game breaking. Either adjusting the throws themselves, or introducing a mechanic that discourages chain grabbing in general.
N64 Logo?
Perhaps a sort of input lag of sorts could be put on Nana's grabs while Popo is grabbing the opponent? Not sure how feasible that is, though.
I wonder if they'll change Dedede's grab also.
I'm going with 52-54.
Out of curiosity, since you seem to think we'll be getting a larger roster, when do you think they'll reveal those new characters? Do you think we'd get a bunch at E3, or do you think there will just be a lot of secret newcomers?
I never really played Dedede until recently (and now I really enjoy using him, funny enough), but maybe more knockback on his Down Throw could fix most of his chaingrab issues.
NO! The Hall of famin, super sluggin, ultra Retro, KEN GRIFFEY JR.!
That sounds similar to what I would say. I think the only cuts though will be Snake and maybe Lucus. Also, cutting Snake shows how Pack-Man can replace him.
I'd like it if Mewtwo was a secret character, and Sakurai made everyone think that Mewtwo wasn't in by not revealing him before the game.
I'd say he's got a great shot at returning, given his importance in Fire Emblem's pretty much ONLY behind Marth's. For changes? Hopefully more range and approach options.
Takamaru's chances have nothing to do with Greninja, Takamaru is a samurai, not a ninja. Even so, that wouldn't have lowered his chances regardless, that would be like the flapping of a butterfly's wings in Mexico causing a tsunami in Japan. I'm still holding out hope for him, nothing so far has convinced me otherwise.
Perhaps the silliest thing I have ever seen is when people state they're not getting the game because of "X character is not included!" If one character exclusion is going to ruin a game for you, then you don't deserve to play it. That's not to say that people don't have the right to criticize Sakurai on character decision (I certainly would with how Sakurai has handled Ridley), but there's more to the game than just characters.
Even when the Gematsu's leak comes true, King Shadow would still not be right. I already made a post explaining that Sakurai isn't making the majority of newcomers surprise additions and that Melee had more surprises than this game does. Beside, most of the characters in the Gematsu leak are solid choices; the only possible exceptions are Pac-Man and Chrom. We'll also see a few more aside from them, there's still Mewtwo and a retro character that haven't been confirmed yet as well as potentially more down the pipe line (a DK newcomer, Isaac, Tingle etc.).
I mostly just want them to make an unique Ganondorf. I mean, they've adjusted already unique characters, why not give the most important Zelda villain his own move set already? Resource would be better spent on that than a new Zelda character.
I can't see Lucas getting cut at this point. Ivysaur, Squirtle, Snake and to a lesser extent, Ike, are the only ones I could see leaving.
I'm still betting on a retro newcomer. If it's not Takamaru, it'll be Mach Rider (or someone we didn't see coming).What do you think is the deal with retro characters at this point? Lip is basically disconfirmed and Greninja lowers Takamaru's chances so.............? What now?
April fools. Those don't exist.
But we're probably going to see Snake, Ivysaur and Squirtle leave.
I'd say he's very likely coming back, even with Chrom's inclusion. He's the main lord of two games and is an extremely popular Brawl character. He's not getting replaced, that's for sure and he has more going for him than Roy did in Melee and he almost got in Brawl. I'd say our chances of us getting Marth, Roy, Ike and Chrom is greater than us just getting Marth and Chrom (seriously, that would be awful).
Grab breaks for the love of god. Seriously, that alone would stop people from furiously mashing out of a grab.
