    You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

    You want me to cite years of reading reviews and message boards about Brawl? I'm sorry, I'm not sure I know how to go about doing that.. And I've honestly never seen a single complaint about the roster being too big. That may have something to do with the boards we've frequented, but I can't...

    He's suggesting that Brawl's sales are directly related to it's acceptance as it was, which isn't true. Yeah, a lot of people bought it, but had their own critiques of it afterwards.

    That's a personal problem. Much like the concerns I've expressed here (no playable Ridley, Bowser Jr., King K. Rool, Isaac, Krystal, Samuraih Goroh, Claus, Little Mac, or Balloon Fighter // Falco, Ganondorf, Lucario, Toon Link all being too clone-ish // of course excluding Roy and Mewtwo, etc)...

    Having them as ATS accomplished nothing more than what having them as playables would have accomplished. I'm in Full Support of ATs. I loved the idea, I just thought that certain ATs deserved to be playable. That's a misleading fact, and you're not looking at it correctly. People bought...

    Oh stop. I've stated many a times that I think they need to find a way to do more in less time, not take longer. You're being ridiculous. They need to deliver a quality product that clears the hurdle that Brawl set, that being having a disappointing roster. Period. Businesses that cut corners...

    You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

    I didn't say they should unintentionally try to have the same number of reps per series, that would be unreasonable. But there are certain characters within certain series that at least deserve more serious consideration, like Dark Samus for instance. Four? No, three. Samus, Ridley, and Dark...

    You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

    I admittedly misspoke in that instance. What? These character inclusions aren't physical products. I doubt it's significantly more expensive to include more characters. It'll cost time, not money. But as I've said, it shouldn't cost that much more time considering the team of people working...

    Zelda Franchise Discussion

    Again, I don't question his deserving to be included. I just don't think he merited an entirely sepeaate character slot. They were similar enough, Just like Fox/Falco, Falcon/Ganondorf, oh yeah, and Link/Toon Link. I'm an advocate of diving deeper into moveset potential, not excluding...

    Yeah.. I read your disposition towards large rosters. Fortunately though, Nintendo has a rich enough history to include 50+ characters all while avoiding redundancy. This isn't a roster within one series, Smash encompasses all that is Nintendo (at the time). Your so called "second stringers"...

    You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

    I guess I'm going more by what Nintendo has to offer, which is a lot more than 39. With intimate attention payed to each series, Brawl could have very well have had 50 reasonable characters, all with unique movesets and stats. Only ten? How um, exclusive. Who all would you add, if you don't...

    Zelda Franchise Discussion

    "Should Woulda Coulda doesn't make anyone feel better." = Irrelevant and borderline confrontational statement. We're discussing character inclusion, correct? The manner in which characters are included is certainly valid. Toon Link was very much a copy and paste addition. Mainly because...

    You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

    I'm sorry, the distinction of four more characters barely makes a case against the fact that the roster was still lacking, debatably of course. It wasn't bad, it was just small, imo. "Spoiled?" That's offensive. Calm down. While I commend your appreciation and attempt to defend Sakurai's...

    Zelda Franchise Discussion

    Oh, my apologies. I didn't explain myself thoroughly enough. Toon Link should have been playable, I just think it would have been smarter to package both he and Young Link via unlockable costumes, or something of that nature. But to take up a character slot on the selection screen was a...

    I still don't know how to feel about that update... I am a designer / programmer. ^_^ Yes, coding is indisputably labor-intensive, but how much time it takes isn't nearly so inevitable. Sakurai has an entire Team at his side; And frankly, the bottom line is that they either need to work harder...

    Zelda Franchise Discussion

    That may not be too far from the truth.. SOMEONE has to get in. lol I don't think this new Smash installment will come void of a new playable Zelda rep. Zelda is too popular. Just think, they knew enough to include a new rep to at least include Toon Link (which was imo a Complete waste of...
