I didn't care much about Smash back then. I didn't really start getting into the franchise until January of this year.
I'm not trying to make a point, genuinely curious. New is a relative term, not sure exactly what the window is for these characters are for you guys.
My apologies.
What I meant was the playstyle. I totally get that he doesn't feel cartoony and what not but the play really fits and that could go for every character. Someone made a mod of Deadpool fighting in PM. While I like Deadpool and he can have some interesting movesets I hope he would never get put in. The thing is that smash mechanics can fit really well with anyone and it would be cool if they had their own game for it. Say MvC but as smash.
For the obvious choice I think we all know it should be Rayman!
I get what you mean, but how big would it have been for Splatoon to have their character in Smash? That would've been great advertisement.
Tbh I had no clue who Robin was during the reveal trailer. I mean, I kinda did, but I knew him/her more as the avatar, not Robin.
I've been dying to have Rayman in since I was a little kid. After playing Legends, I want him even more. He's such a perfect fit, I hate that it's all politics with him.What I meant was the playstyle.

Everyone will like what they want though and it is all opinions but some are more thought out than others.
I won't bring up the rest seeing as how you don't like it and that's good but it would be cool to have EVERYONE in smash. Can you imagine how crazy that would be?
It was a joke 'cause of ur avatar...
I get that it was a joke, but it made no sense to me. The power of the "DEAL WITH IT." phrase is only to be used if someone doesn't like something. The way you used it was just me saying "Oh, that's how it works." with you replying "DEAL WITH IT.", making no sense. Though I think I understand what your intent was.
You know... I just got through playing Undertale, getting the happy ending, and experiencing a little bit of the not-so-happy ending, and it all got me thinking... There should be a canon Smash Bros universe--rather than the characters all being thrown together into a mashpit all willy-nilly. Although the fighting is super clean an pleasurable now, it just feels so empty. Almost purposeless. I hate to say that because I love this game, and so do so many others, but I can't help but feel a little negative about smash?
Isn't the smash story that were playing as A kid that plays with his toys, I know it's not something epic or says anything about the characters but it explains why there's nothing epic that says anything about the characters.
Ehhhh...kinda.
Smash lost a lot of it's heart with Brawl, and even more with 4 in my opinion. With the first two games, there was a lot of mystery involved, why is this hand floating around reviving all these toys. Is it just to make them fight? As a player, you could imagine the Master Hand was this all powerful being, or just a kid with an imagination. There was a lot of speculation to be had, and the mystery was left to the player's imagination.
I can never tell whether something has "lost it's touch" as I grow up or whether it lost its touch BECAUSE I grew up, if that makes any sense. Of the games, I played Brawl the least because at the time it didn't "have" what Melee had--in hindsight, I think the slow gameplay just threw me off. Smash 4 is a perfect combination of Melee and Brawl's gameplay (in my modest opinion, of course). Compared to Smash 4, I actually look at Brawl and Melee as twins (stupid, right?). It's just a tragedy to me that Ice Climbers were not able to make it in r--hurting more than Snake or Wolf because they were there since Melee.
I have the same problems with not knowing if things just don't feel right because nostalgia or whatever, but I think I explained Brawl pretty good. It's not even a gameplay thing, everything about Brawl was dramatically different from games past.
ooh, if you played Brawl first and you enjoyed the story mode, I don't think you'd like 64 and Melee. The only thing I liked about Subspace Emissary were the cut-scenes and admittedly, yes it was a better way to unlock characters. But I found the game-play repetitive at times. I'm hoping that the Ice Climbers hold more weight in your reasoning than the subspace emissary cause while I admit Smash Tour aint no subspace emissary, I figured the whole fun in smash was the multiplayer. I feel like they balanced it out perfectly this time around--gave online a more simplified process, made a bunch of single-layer modes 2 player--8 player smash. Now if there was a subspace emissary you could play online with 4 players, that would totally shut me up in awe. I don't mean to hate on Subspace but if smash survived without it then, it can survive without it now.
FunAtParties
Honestly, you're right. I lost interest in Smash after Brawl but Smash 4 has maintained my interest for a year now. Only games I've played besides it within that time-span are Ice Climber and Snake Eater (for reasons I'm sure you can assume). Brawl did some things differently from the other two--the gameplay was different, the characters were more realistic, they introduced a large story mode--but it didn't feel like the core of the series. The game had a completely different vibe whereas Melee built further upon 64. Smash 4 may look like Brawl in Menu design, but I believe it changed the series to more closely resemble its roots--while stll keeping some Brawl aspects so everyone is happy.
Ya. I want both to come back, and I'd definitely take ICies over a new story mode, but I'd like it best if both came back.ooh, if you played Brawl first and you enjoyed the story mode, I don't think you'd like 64 and Melee.

I'm vice versa.
Should be something between the 30th and 3rd with an announcement for a direct by the 29th at the latest, giving leakers virtually no chance to snatch up what they're about to show.
It would be interesting to have no formal announcement on DLC by the time it's released, making everything a complete surprise. Just imagine having multiple characters come in with no announcement, ready to play the minute they're known. Pretty hype stuff.
I've seen em both. Not bad for the times I guess, but doesn't really make me want to play them, probably just because I didn't grow up with them. Not saying that I don't ever want to play them though.
Nothing beats 64's intro.
If you're ever interested in getting them eventually, I HIGHLY recommend that you get them. The only downside nowadays is that they're going up in price. Like, a lot. Like, $40 for a loose N64 cart and $60 for a complete Melee. But that's just ebay being ebay.
Smash 64 is more than that last time I checked. Like $50-$60 now. Melee's still about $60 though. Either way, they fluctuate like crazy, and if anybody is planning on getting them do NOT do it around Christmas time for this very reason.
I was very lucky when I got Smash 64 and my Nintendo 64 back in Christmas '09. The price for Smash: $12.95. The price for the console: $12.95, but it came with the RF output instead of AV so I had to use my GameCube one for it. Nowadays, if it's popular and if it's retro, it's almost certainly unaffordable.
That's crazy. I've had mine since I was a kid, so I was kind shocked to see it that valuable a couple years ago. I actually had a lot of copies (at least 7) of Melee (I used to buy them for 20 bucks at Walmart back in 05', I don't know why), and they all got stolen. Still pisses me off, I could use the money.
I got my GameCube for roughly $30.
Pretty similar honestly. 65$ is enough as it is for an old game though.
The latter. This mountain is just too much for them.
I think 2-4, no more, no less.
