The Marth Support Thread - Fire Emblem's First Lord is Confirmed!

[Hippochinfat]

It doesn't totally confirm him. Ike's only games were on the gamecube and Wii and you can't play those on the virtual console.

 

[Okysho]

Yeah, but they still could have picked so many other Fire Emblem games. they had 3 other choices, but still chose 3. 4 was supposed to be really popular, why didn't they use 4?

Especially since Sakurai stated in his own interviews that 4 was his favorite and that his favorite lord was Sigurd. And before someone inevitably make the argument, yes, FIRE EMBLEM 4 IS ALREADY ON THE JAPANESE VIRTUAL CONSOLE AS OF JANUARY 30TH 2007.

Hmmm, didn't know that...

The man has good tastes in video games (FE 4 is my favorite video game that I've ever played).

 

[Rakath]

Tonight's update slightly helps Marth (not a lot, since we have stickers from everywhere). But as Marth's girlfriend is in the update as a sticker it makes him a bit better standing.

Not only that but on that Japanese site instead of the Super Metroid picture it's another picture of the Fire Emblem Masterpiece.

EDIT: Guess you just posted this in the wrong thread, the "Geno Trophy" thread was one below this.

 

[Destruction_King]

Oooh. Bad news for Marth. Not completely terrible, but the list of games on tonights update included Kung fu, Tennis, WIld Gunman, Pinball, games that probably (if not definately,) will not have a representative in Brawl. Which means FE3's presence does not mean MArth is completely confirmed. Not that it did in the first place.

Take comfort in the fact however, that FE3 appeared in the update that mentioned playing as characters in thier first adventures. I'm still very confident that Marth will be in Brawl, but if we are going to analyze Marth's inclusion to every extent, we must take the good and the bad.

Plus, seeing Sheeda as a sticker is a good thing too.

 

[KosukeKGA]

I support Marth heavily.

I hope Micaiah gets in too, though. <.<

 

[Josh0]

im a supporter!
marth4brawl!

 

[Okysho]

With Sheeda being included as a sticker, I'm even more confident now that Marth will be in... though, with her appearance as a sticker, I guess her chances of being an AT are lower now aren't they?

 

[FangzV]

We know Marth will be in Brawl. When I think of Fire Emblem, I think Marth. And he was in the first FE game, correct?
And he has this huge fanbase, so not putting him in would be stupid.

 

[ShiroiKen]

Marth FTW!

As been pointed out in latest messages, Sheeda is a sticker, probably for FE characters only.

Marth is a MUST!

 

[Starry Might]

Hey, hey, hey! Put me down as a supporter! I've been a fangirl of Marth since "Melee" (he's so handsome and awesome...

), but I've had doubts about his return since the Ike announcment...but the Japanese "Masterpieces" update's made me WAY more optimistic!

Also, I think this is one of THE best topics on the whole forum (I've read this as a guest long ago)! I love seeing all the love for this fantastic character in here.

About that...:

Chronicle

This bonus feature lets you peruse Nintendo’s library of past titles. Missing titles in your Chronicle will gradually fill in as you obtain stickers and other things related to those games. (However, there are some titles that will not be displayed until the very end.)

That's just a list of every game that has SOMETHING in "Brawl", be it a Playable Character, Sticker, Trophy, Boss, Assist Trophy, etc.

So chillax, it means nothing!

I think that's proof he's in, 'cause they also had "Mother 2"/"Earthbound" in that update...and thanks to that "How To Play" video leak, we know that Ness is returning.

Plus, seeing Sheeda as a sticker is a good thing too.

Yeah! ^_^

I hope there's more "Fire Emblem 3" stuff in "Brawl"...I could see Nabarl and Oguma being Assist Trophies, because the former is supposed to be a favorite character of Sakurai's, and the later has been requested by the Japanese to appear.

 

[Roy-Kun]

I'm sorry to be against you, but... there was a Joshua sticker in, that also gives chances for Eirika and/or Ephraim?

I don't think that helps at all.

 

[FieryRebirth]

Same with RD Elincia being a trophy, it only shows that Sakurai is fully aware of Radiant Dawn and perhaps increases the chance of a PC from that game but there is no solid proof for any of the sort.

 

[Superninjabreadman]

Sakurai is just representing the series as a whole. We've got a new FE Lord. we need an old one. *Cough*Marth*Cough*.


It'd Represent the series better. we could get stickers from every FE Game ever, dosent mean were going to get PCs from every game.


Heck. I saw the little flying dudes from Kirby 64. Dosent mean were getting that painter girl that has only shown up in that Kirby game.'


But Still. Marth 4 Brawl.

 

[Kadet4]

Yeah! Marth looks like he's almost certainly going to make it in.

 

[Okysho]

alright alright! I get it I'm a little overconfident about that, and the sticker doesn't mean jack **** aside from that Sheeda might now be considered "assist trophy unworthy" Marth is still gonna be in!

 

[Destruction_King]

Why am I not listed as a supporter? I am shocked and appauled.

Add me. Seriously.

Oh, and of course, Marth for Brawl.

 

[Okysho]

Zevox hasn't updated the thread in months, I don't know why he stopped, if I could, I would have listed a bunch more supporters into the thread... but unfortunately it's beyond my power.

 

[Starry Might]

Yeah, I DO agree that, by itself, the Sheeda sticker doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Still, I was excited to see that, too!

Zevox hasn't updated the thread in months, I don't know why he stopped, if I could, I would have listed a bunch more supporters into the thread... but unfortunately it's beyond my power.

I know, that stinks.

He should also definitely add the thing about the Japanese "Masterpieces" update to the original post, too!

 

[DarkDisco]

have you all been noticing all of the FE1 references on the japanese half of the Dojo lately? i'm sure marth will be returning anyway, but the foreshadowing is nice.

 

[verditude]

YAY!!!!!!!!!!

[IkexMarth]

Marth is in Brawl!!!!!

 

[Bassoonist]

Epic.

 

[JhMS]

Just...Epic.Weird that Nintendo shows a hidden(two actually) in the intro.

 

[Noshiee]

well, one was already confirmed, and the other one was too popular, he is like the face of FE.

 

[Zevox]

And at last, he is confirmed:



And apparently, someone with the game already unlocked him too, because I found this on NeoGAF, and those are certainly new images:

Oh, and sorry about not updating this thread in a while, but I've been very busy with school and whatnot, and I've been cutting back on my participation here, trying to stick mostly to the rumors and whatnot to figure out when we get real leaks. I'll edit it for this, though ('fraid I won't be able to update the supporters list given the research I'd need to do to do so, though).

Zevox

 

[Destruction_King]

A great calm has enveloped me. I'm so very happy, and cannot WAIT for this game to be released in March!

The March of Marth. Yes indeed!

 

[Lovely]

There was no real reason to take him out in the first place. I'll main Marth once again in Brawl, yay. :D

 

[Bassoonist]

I just thought you'd be interested in seeing it. The first real clear picture of his face we have.

 

[adumbrodeus]

HA!

Proven right!!!!

I said from the very beginning, Marth was in, for a variety of reasons, and the Amero-centric brawl community wouldn't believe me!

Japan-centric folks, Japan-centric!

Marth is BACK!


On a side note, I'm 3/4 for my melee mains so far.

 

[Matt Silver]

Where'd you get that Bassoonist?

Congrats on getting Marth guys. I'm happy he's back.

 

[MarthTrinity]

Oh God this is the BEST Brawl news so far! Marth brought back>>>>Sonic Oh maaaan he's gonna be so awesome in Brawl! And his new character model looks cool too... Now I'm 3/3 with my mains! This rocks! (Marth, Peach, Ness) ^_^

 

[Okysho]

AT LONG LAST MY DREAM IS REALIZED! THE GREAT PRINCE HAS RETURNED TO BRAWL!!!

As promised, here is that picture I promised to you all!

The Prince has returned to lead us to victory! There are no words to express my joy! I'll wait forever for brawl now! AT LONG LAST THE PRINCE HAS RETURNED!!!

 

[Okysho]

also, this calls for a new fourm siggy. Many thanks bassonist for the portrait shot! TO THE PHOTOSHOP WORKBENCH!!!!

 

[Williampettysan]

His costume dosen't seem to have much of a update, but still he's in! AWSOME! :D

 

[Roy-Kun]

w00t!

...I need a high quality image of Marth, NOW T_T
