Guys, I have to ask you a question: It's necessary to have played the first two games before Pirate's Curse, or it is perfectably enjoyable as the first one to play?

I think for the most part it's unnecessary to play all 3 games back to back to under stand the plot, but I'd check out Risky's Revenge at least. The first is a classic that stands alone compared to the other two.

Although it does help understanding the story a bit, it's by no means necessary, especially as Pirate's Curse plays differently

Also, indie sale includes Pirate's Curse in Europe starting on the 9th

It's not necessary, but I would say you have to play at least Risky's Revenge before Pirate's Curse. Though I personally played the first before Risky's Revenge.

Imma just put this out here: Shantae is the only character I think I'll literally be devistated about if she doesn't make it in.
A bit extreme, I know, but... yeah. Consider me a 100% supporter of this.

Also, Shantae in Smash is such a great idea to begin with, but it doubles in awesomeness when you realize that this probably also means ponytailed, dancing :4kirby:. :yeahboi:

SomecallmeJohnny finally did it!
Bit of a shame how he feels about the first 2 games (Though I do admit his critique isn't without SOME merit) But hey, he still seems to like the series enough.
Also, Johnny and AlphaOmegaSin dancing together. My life is complete.

Pretty good review, I'm a bit more positive towards the first game and Risky's Revenge than he is, but he has his points. The areas in the first game always felt somewhat samey.

That dancing montage though.
Cute plush, I would like some Shantae merchandise.

Well, I haven't put my vote in for Shantae yet, but before I do could you guys give me some reasons as to why she should be in Smash? Seeing as I've only played the first one I mainly just need some info on her abilities and the like from Risky's Revenge and Pirate's Curse so I can give reasons on how she could be unique. If you could just put them in bullet points that'd be great :)

Fellow supporters, I need your help. Can you post your 250 character reason for Shantae to be in Smash for the ballot? I need about 10 original ones, focusing on different reasons. like, sentiment, logistics, and flat out begging. Thanks guys!

Also, there's no need to hope, because she is making it for sure. :chuckle:
