    Noticing more OP characters...

    I definitely don't think Greninja or Little Mac are OP. When working tiers are developed I'd expect Greninja to fall mid-to-high tier and Little Mac mid/lower middle tier. Little Mac in particular plays fairly badly, though I will definitely wait for matchups to make a claim like this. But you...

    Smash 3DS The technical skill required to craft such a game on the 3DS

    Is anyone else simply blown away that they were able to make such a high-speed fighting game with a large character roster on the 3DS? I was very skeptical of how it would work out before purchasing the game. While I thought the cel-shade graphics would be disappointing, but they look nice...

    Sakurai designed Greninja personally in one night's time (WOW)

    I think he is a great game designer but I think you are not giving enough credit to those he consulted with. I truly doubt that the decision to include Greninja was a unilateral one.

    Kid Icarus rep. necessary?

    I think Kid Icarus has seen an uptick in notoriety ever since Pit's inclusion in Brawl and the new game releases. I think that given this newfound popularity it is fitting, but I honestly think the entire franchise has been forced upon consumers a bit. I don't really think anyone cared about Pit...

    Changes to unconfirmed Veterans

    MK: Hopefully nerfed significantly... something that places him in D tier would be nice Ganondorf: I really want to see some special/smash attacks with the sword. Brawl did very little to differentiate between Gdorf & CF. Even though their moves weren't identical anymore, they were still...

    Official AC Villager Discussion Thread! He smiles as he smashes faces in! [Update: CONFIRMED!]

    I will be absolutely pissed if they make him ****e tier

    Official AC Villager Discussion Thread! He smiles as he smashes faces in! [Update: CONFIRMED!]

    Well I'm going to say that Villager has a 100% chance of appearing in SSB4. But maybe that's a stretch.

    Ness

    I'm glad we can rest assured regarding Ness' inclusion. After all he's been in every Smash game up until now. <3

    Geno (♥♪!?): Return of the Starsend Savior #Geno4Smash - Everyone's gotta do their part! Vote Geno

    Thank you for "giving" me Paper Mario. Keep in mind that Geno has been an auxiliary protagonist in one game. As I'm sure you know his only other appearance was a cameo. We are comparing this to characters who have played the following roles: King Boo-- Main antagonist (2) Auxiliary antagonist...

    Geno (♥♪!?): Return of the Starsend Savior #Geno4Smash - Everyone's gotta do their part! Vote Geno

    I'm not sure I understand the huge following. Why put him in over Mario characters that have made a much bigger impact on the history of both Mario and Nintendo as a whole? Paper Mario, King Boo, Birdo, Bowser Jr., etc., all deserve a spot over Geno... not that there's anything wrong with Geno...

    New Smash Bros for WiiU

    I don't think they'll be remade in time for Smash Wii U. Possibly not at all. Kind of mad that there's no Gen 2 rep in Smash anymore and that they put in irrelevant Lucario over so many options that would have made more sense.

    Showing Off

    I hardly call the "tech skill" present in Melee and absent in Brawl "technical". And I certainly don't call it "skill".

    Is using the Wii Remote really so bad?

    The Wii Remote (by itself) is definitely the worst controller option for SSBB. I highly recommend just using the Gamecube controller.

    Can VS CPU Teach You Anything?

    Ever since Melee came out I've found that newer players tend to gravitate towards using Bowser; I suppose it makes sense why they tend to choose Bowser as he seems like he'd be a pretty good character to use. Honestly, though, I feel like being a Bowser main has a fairly steep learning curve so...

    Should MK be banned Online as well?

    I agree... I'm not even a serious player and I don't take Wi-Fi seriously.
