What's the big deal? Ain't no shame in voting PM. I could see him getting in. He has the moveset/playstyle potential, the popularity, the relevance. The only reason I could see Sakurai turning him down is him deeming it unwise to add another Mario. Maybe my focus on balance is clouding my judgement. but I think he's somewhat likely.
He has AMAZING potential, but the thing is, there are already a lot of Mario characters.
That's pretty much it.

https://twitter.com/Doctor_Cupcakes/status/638091731498586112 Looky here guys, I think we might be getting something soon!
If we're very lucky Bandana Dee might get in as early as tomorrow! I wish I could say, "Get your hopes up!" but please don't, it might be nothing.
Is it bad that I'm somewhat worried that Sakurai will sneak in another Fire Emblem character during that maintenance period tomorrow?
@ Logo12 Logo12 proved in the wolf thread that it updates accordingly to your time or something like that. I wouldn't get too excited

You can't have too many Mario characters. Not as long as there's five Fire Emblem characters. That's like saying there's too many Nintendo games. I still don't believe Paper Mario would get in over Toad, though.

So... I'm not sure if we've discussed this already, but...

How long have you been supporting Bandana Dee, and what are some of your reasons for it?

For me, I always kinda wanted Bandana Dee in Smash ever since Return to Dream Land, but I think it was around when the Smash Ballot began when I started to want him more than ever. Bandana Dee was always my favorite character to play as in the multiplayer, and it was just disappointing to me that he wasn't included as a Smash fighter. It felt weird to me that he was the only RTDL playable character who wasn't in Smash at all. And then with Rainbow Curse, that's when I felt he was really becoming a main character in the Kirby series.

Also, there's the fact that he's a Waddle Dee. Waddle Dees are simply adorable. And that blue bandana just makes him even cuter in my opinion. :3

I remember when the Ballot first started up, I wanted to find a character that I should submit a vote for, and it wasn't long before I decided on Bandana Dee. Not only because of the previously stated reasons, but because he already had quite a bit of support, and seemed like he really had a legitimate chance of getting in. I knew I'd be using my vote wisely.
To be honest, I've only wanted Bandana Dee when the ballot was announced. I was looking for a fighter to support because other people were already campaigning for their's, I supported other fighters for a short while till I ended up supporting Bandana Dee. I felt that if Fire Emblem had 4 reps, then Kirby should get a 4th rep & Bandana Dee was the perfect choice.

Its most likely going to be Wolf and/or Snake. Phantom Pain releases on the 1st for Snake & its the perfect time to release Wolf.

Contrary to popular belief, I don't think it's right to discourage the support of any other character, but some characters just scream "nope." Toad is one of them.

The argument is simple and straightforward: if there were any chance of him getting in, he'd be in already.

There are plenty of Mario characters with potential. But Toad, in his present form, isn't one of them.

Please excuse my abrasive personality. Please. For the love of the thread.

speaking of gender confusion anyone else think adeleine was a boy at one point?
I might as well tell them when to ACTUALLY start to celebrate. Cuz it kinda annoys me when people do this before it suppose to be done...
i'm not sure why but now i need to deecorate my house in Christmas deecorations.:troll:
So yeah another question. Please answer this. I'm sick of asking a question and not getting an answer. It hurts meh... ;(

If another Kirby rep was announced for Smash besides BD, who would you want it to be?
well i would say magolor because hes cool and cute and so hal doesn't ever forget him... but i would also say adeleine so they remember her...

I consider Ado and Adeline two different characters, despite the similarities. I mean, Adeline is a girl's name and Ado would be a boy's. That's just my opinion.

Umm, why FE character? And well, good luck to you all with BDee in and such, although I don't expect ballot fighters until the day it ends when that could be one could be revealed proper. Just my opinion.
The FE character thing is mainly due to this this absurdly lucky friend of mine who got literally every one of the 4 newcomers (Shulk, Robin, Lucina, Chrom) he wanted this game sans Chrom and he wants like 4 more FE characters, so even if I think it won't happen, the thought of it won't stop lingering :laugh:. I agree that the Ballot characters would most likely be revealed after the whole thing ends.

@ Logo12 Logo12 proved in the wolf thread that it updates accordingly to your time or something like that. I wouldn't get too excited
Aww, that's disappointing, now I feel bad for accidentally (Doesn't make it any better) spreading misinformation.

Sorry.

I never even thought of that before, good observation, I won't be surprised now if that's the case!



It's :GCD::GCB: for me now, I really need some rest. Have a good night, afternoon (probably this), or morning, thread!

Made a custom 3ds Theme. Top screen shows a transparent BDee with a purple "Another Dimension" background. Bottom Screen is a BDee sprite using the rapid jab, and it is animated when you scroll. Background music is Another Dimension as well.

Currently working on SFX so when you scroll there is a jab noise, so the animation for the bottom screen will have a little sound to it and it should be pretty awesome...

I'm just having issues with the SFX, anyone here fluent in YATA+?

There's a very good way to counter this sort of worrying: Remember that even if they're undesirable to you, there's a whole lot of people who will be made happy by that character's inclusion. That's what this is really all about. :)
That's definitely true. However, when I say "undesirable" characters, that's just my nice way of saying that I really hate their guts. I won't name any specific characters, obviously. But don't worry, for most other characters, I WOULD still be happy for their fans.

So then I suppose since Bandanna Dee isn't in, he's never going to get in? K. Rool, the most requested newcomer for some time now, won't ever get in because he's not in now? What about Isaac and Wolf. There's this big ballot made specifically for people to request characters that they think should be in, but since they're not in the base game, their chances are forfeit, huh?
Honestly, I have to question your sanity if you think deuteragonist of the series Smash is based around doesn't have a chance. I mean, come on, you support Magolor, for ****'s sakes.

On an unrelated note, wouldn't it be something else if the one to finally fell ZeRo was using Bandanna Dee?

GUYS THERES A RUMOR THAT WE COULD GET A SMASH UPDATE TOMORROW. Should we expect a lot?
Whilst it would be nice to get something, I would expect nothing.

The basis of the rumour is that there's server maintenance for Smash 3DS & Wii U scheduled for tomorrow, but the problem is that that's occurred before without there having been content updates along with it. Note also that the Wii U version of Disney Infinity 3.0 is undergoing maintenance tomorrow too, and other games probably are as well. (I can only hope that Mario Kart 7 is one of them, as its online mode has been becoming increasingly unstable for months, now.)

I've been supporting Bandana Dee since I got on this site-in other words, around the beginning of the month. By then, I had already voted for Paper Mario.
Yes, Paper Mario. *sigh*
Why you don;t just vote for bdee then?

It;s not like you're spamming THAT much to vote for a second character, completely unrelated to the first one and (hopefully) for completely different reasons.

What's the big deal? Ain't no shame in voting PM. I could see him getting in. He has the moveset/playstyle potential, the popularity, the relevance. The only reason I could see Sakurai turning him down is him deeming it unwise to add another Mario. Maybe my focus on balance is clouding my judgement, but I think he's somewhat likely.
It';s more what he said at GDC "franchise representation has to be considered) (or something). It;s just being a mario rep, not necessarily being mario.

But basically this, idk why it;s a big deal, just vote for bdee, at worst case you would get something good in the end......anyway.

Then, a lot of people will join dee Bandwagon.
Also, when Bandana Dee comes to Smash, many people will say, " I always knew Bandana Dee would be in Smash".
StoplyingMr./Mrs.Ihavenoopinonofmyown.
Thank you. That's exactly what I say all the time, people always 180 on a hated character once they get confirmed.

:4pacman::4feroy::4duckhunt::4mewtwo:

I seriously hate double standard people.

Yes! I'd love to see that happen. Bandana Dee is the one to finally end his reign? Yes please!
Of course, that's only possible if Bandana Dee actually makes it as DLC, and even then... Well, I don't know THAT much about competitive Smash, but I've heard that this guy wins just about everything... Chances are that someone would have to become insanely skilled with Bandana Dee (or any character) in order to beat him. But man, if someone did beat him... And even if it was with some other random character, they would definitely earn respect from me. There are some really amazing Smash players out there.

They'd have the element of surprise because of lack of knowledge from ZeRo. There are definitely people capable of doing it. Look at Sethlon, he picked up Roy and just started beating people's ass with him. Granted, he mained Roy in Melee, but still.

I'm gonna try to be mature about this, and I'd ask you do the same.



It varies from character to character. I wouldn't say the same pattern of logic applies to any of those characters. It's just that Toad has been around for so long, been playable for so long, been popular for so long, and been eligible for so long that it seems like he would've been added by now if he was ever going to be.

Just so you know, I wouldn't support Magolor if I thought he had no chance. I don't have the dedication of a Ridley fanboy.

"It varies from character to character." Yeah, no, it doesn't work that way. If it doesn't apply to one character, it doesn't apply to any. K. Rool, Isaac, Bandanna Dee, Wolf, Toad, all requested characters who aren't in the game yet, but potentially could be.

It took them till Brawl to add a second Kirby rep, and there are several characters who were supposed to appear in a Smash game but either didn't or were postponed for a subsequent game, so the "if he was going in, he'd be in" argument holds no water.

You support Magolor, who has less of a chance then Toad, and you say he'd be a better character than Bandanna Dee (which, my bias aside, is untrue in almost every way). I think it's safe to say your view on the likeliness of characters is...askew.
