To be totally honest, I'd rather have not had Ganondorf in Melee if it meant he was going to be done right in Brawl.
I know. That was the only real good thing to come from having Ganondorf be similar to Captain Falcon in that game, but it should have dropped once Brawl came around.
I completely agree, someone as important as him should be a unique character
His counter part is the same way. Except for in the F-Zero anime I guess.
At least they did not make him use his sword, that would have been horrible.
I have a question for you. Is smash bros canon?
That belongs in the Unpopular Smash Opinions Thread, if I am not mistaken.
Eh, would've been a robin clone then
I don't know.
Two words: Falcon punch
It is not.
Ganondorf is not a Robin clone at the current time, yet he does not use a sword. If anything, enabling him to use a sword in Smash 4 would result in more similarities between him and Robin. Albeit, Robin would be the "clone" in that case as the King of Darkness has seniority.
No, ganondorf is a clone of robin, sorry my bias is more obvious than sakurai and his shovel. So who do you guys think will be the last characters on the roster?
Eh? The kind of sword that Robin uses is more like a Kris. A weapon that was poisoned to help quickly kill enemies. Ganondorf does not use Tomes either to cast his spells, he is that powerful of a Warlock.
This might sound circular, but maybe we should just leave it at: Ganondorf is a semi-clone of Captain Falcon and call it a day.
I was thinking more of when ganondorf made the ball of magic that you could use the bottle to hit back cause why not, add that and his sword and we might as well call him the king of tacticians, and do any if you find Impa likely? I know one monkey on the boards wants her, but what about everyone else?
His powerful magic for stunning and ranged attacks. His sword for up close and powerful attacks, that sounds pretty nice.
I also crave the deadman's volley.
Ganondorf is too prominent to receive an update; but seriously, Sakurai is making this game for me just in case it was not apparent. Why do you think Dark Pit is (presumably) on the roster. Sakurai came up to me and asked, "what changes do you, Morbid, want from Ganondorf?" To which I responded, "add some darkness effects to his smash attacks and call it a day. No sword, please."
I think that's what bothers me the most. Bowser was updated to look and move more like his mainline Mario game counterpart. Pit was given moves from his most recent game. DK even got the classic roll attack from DKC1. But Ganondorf, who arguably should get an overhaul more than anyone else doesn't?
I'd rather have that than falcondorf, but I don't think that would bode well for Isaac, even if he doesn't have the greatest chances already
The best part is, he was the ONLY character that really needed a new move set.
Bowser really needed that update tbh. His bulkiness and sluggish movements in the past Smash games truly was a disgrace to the Koopa King.
To be fair, the move-set is subject to change. I do believe that we are being a little hasty operating under the assumption that he has "no changes." Did we see all of his normals in the game-play footage? No. In that event, it is not objectively true as of current. Even if we did see all of his attacks return, I would defer to my first point, the game-play footage is not necessarily what we are going to get in the final build.
Hmmm? How wouldn't that bode well for Isaac? Isaac and Ganondorf's magic are nothing alike.
I'm guessing that you forgot our top tier friend from brawl. And another sword and magic user would take Isaac out if the equation, we need a real Mage now, not a sword and magic guy, we need a real Mage, and don't count zelda, I want a Mage that is actually good.
He just needed to be nerfed. And they did that without giving him a brand new move set. At least, I don't think he'll have one.
I can understand putting Uprising content in, but JHC, there's a limit. The series has more enemies in Smash Run than even Mario. While there's lots of stuff we don't know about yet, the franchises are so lopsided in terms of overall representation now that's it's just ridiculous. I still haven't forgotten Pit being shown in the initial trailer, and Yoshi making his debut almost a year later.
Dark Pit as Pit alt. As it should be.
Ghetsis as a pokemon trainer alt
Cutting Little Mac, Rosalina and Luma, Duck Hunt Dog, Bowser Jr., Dr. Mario, Dark Pit, Mega Man, Pac Man, Wii Fit Trainer, and Greninja for the Ice Climbers to return.
Havent we only seen him in his idle stance inside an off-screen bubble? That doesnt really say much.
Ganondorf with is old move-set.
Do not cut megaman and greninja. Absolutely not. Not my fav pokemon and my childhood hero. Never. Cut mario, luigi, peach, bowser, link, the rest of the original 12 and rob. Take them instead. Please understand.
Excuse me, what?
