Honestly i like the look of brawl bowser the most.
He actually looked a little menacing. Unless he was dashing which was easily my favorite part of smash bowser. Rip original Koopa Kar.

I also prefer hunched over bowser to upright.

Snake Man's stage from Metal Blade Solid
Everyone in ssb4 feels much better than in Brawl. In Brawl:
Link, Snake, and Ganondorf felt like gravity effected them much more than the rest of the cast.
Bowser and Ganondorf took a decade to go anywhere, and were very sluggish when trying to hit anything.
I don't remember why I didn't like Ike, he was kinda sluggish, but it wasn't the worst.
I didn't like King Dedede either but at least he had the Waddle Dee toss.
Now:
Snake isn't in :(
Link and Ganondorf have much better jumps.
Every slow character doesn't feel that way. (except King Dedede)
I still don't like King Dedede.
There's really just one thing I'm upset about with Smash 4 bowser.



THIS should have been his new F-Smash.
He takes the Chuboomba's Lollipop and smacks people with it. YES! :awesome:

You wanna talk about characters who benefited most from Brawl to Smash 4?

Didnt falcon jump from absolute bottom to top tier between brawl and 4?

Biggest benefit i can think.

Unless yoshi, ness, and shiek were bad in brawl. Then maybe it's them.

Yep... Well, I don't know with Sheik, but Yoshi and Ness were bad in Brawl... And now... Top/High Tier... Awesome.

See.

Falcon was bad in Brawl.

But got to be "Popular" & amazing in 2 games.

Jiggles & Ganon were pocket mights in Melee but they're mid-top at best now in Smash 4

Not everyone benefited from Brawl to 4.:4gaw:
Windboxes.

Windboxes everywhere.

Y'know who hurt the most Brawl to Smash 4?

They don't come close to having an entire franchise removed.



Literally the worst transition between any Smash game ever. We don't even know what happened, unlike the Icies.
Probably just weren't gonna have Snake. Besides being a guest character, his inclusion was done at Kojima's request. Same will likely happen to Pac-Man.

Pac-Man makes a lot of sense as a character and is a universal icon though. Even Miyamoto wanted him.
Just to damage control, I like Snake and I wish he weren't cut. But his situation is (probably) different from Pac-Man.

Eh... I feel like Namco and Pac-Man are a lot easier to keep attached to Smash than Konami and Metal Gear/Solid Snake.

Unless this is a highly elaborate hoax that would put Omni to a pitifully crying shame, it turns out it was a correct assumption after all to expect Ryu and Roy were on the way after the leaked sound files.

Congratulations are in order for these fan-bases; in particular Roy's, since they patiently waited several years for his return (notwithstanding Project M).

...Roy doesn't look like he has different moves...THEY BETTER GIVE HIM A FLAMING SWORD BEAM IN EITHER HIS REGULAR MOVESET OR FINAL SMASH!!

Like Mewtwo & Lucas.......they are making veterans the same.
At least his neutral B is one from Melee and not the same as Marth's after his change.

But Roy's weapon was unique in how Roy could shoot fire

Oh for ****s sake. At least Ryu's original in pretty much every way. I like the EX attack thing that seems to be DownB

Im surprised some of you expected vet changes, given doc and lucas. (Roy is cool tho)

This is why newcomers should be clamored for, tho wolf is next most likely. Who knows how much they'll make. I'll smh if no more mario placeholders are added and thats all she wrote.

Except that Doc feels different from regular Mario here and has changed from Melee. Lucas was very unique to begin with. And Roy's sword being held different is bugging the **** out of me
Is Roy silent when doing Flare Blade now

I wasn't expecting Roy to have changes, and honestly I wasn't even expecting him to have that hybrid design.

We'll see when he's released though.

And so, we come to our end the "Royu" ambiguity come to an end not with a roar but a whimper.

Ryu looks like his source self in moves to little surprise.

And Roy is as he was in Melee. With all likelyhood, another Marth clone with somewhat more differentiation than Lucina but still one of the veterans I was adamantly hoping we didn't see.

Considering they're this "finished," we may very well see both in the direct tomorrow with maybe even one of them being ready for release "out of the blue."
