I'll refrain from caring too much about Greninja before Mewtwo is back. Right now, sure he seems interessting but I'd much rather have Impa as the 'new ninja' so that'll be some bitterness I'll have to swallow before accepting Greninja. It also doesn't help that I feel Greninja probably will not return in the next game anyway.
Sure thing.
Except he pretty much was.
Some are more divergent than others, but they all have similarities to other characters.
Jigglypuff IS more likely than Ganondorf. It's been around longer, and is a unique character in Smash with its Sing attack and ultra light weight. Charizard makes it even more likely, as they're both iconic characters from the Pokemon anime.
I'm with you on this one. Why would Sakurai de-confirm Ridley like that, it's so anti-climatic. If there's one thing I've learnt this last year is to not underestimate Sakurai he's surprised me more times than I care to mention in the last few months.
It makes a big difference, because the rules for First Party inclusions differ vastly from Third Party inclusions.
It's unreasonable because it pretty much happens in most games due to development issues, memory limitations, time constraints and the like.
If there's going to be another Sonic character, it's Tails, but there won't be. Mewtwo deserves a spot, but wouldn't Sakurai save him till E3 or close to the release.
I'm not! A lot of people on Miiverse demand equally for both Shadow and Mewtwo. As much as I would love to see both, it may be that neither will be playable. If/When Nintendo buys up SEGA, we'd probably have as much Sonic characters as Mario characters due to their nearly equal amount of fame, and Shadow would be the first added of them.
Houseguest Theorem.
I don't even know why most Sonic fans think Shadow would be in, even Tails has more priority than him.
Even Eggman does.
I'll have to agree to that. Even if Sakurai were to come out and say tomorrow that the Gematsu leak was false, Shulk would still have a fairly good chance of getting in. His résume, especially for a character who's only appeared once, is pretty impressive. If any one-shot series character gets in, it'll be him.
Then let's hope that Chrom is actually unique. Not just for his sake, but Chrom is only on in the Gematsu leak I'm hesistant towards. Even Pac-Man will get his own move set if in. If Chrom comes in with a semi-clone move set, then I would have rather Sakurai not bothered with any FE additions.
Right.
Chrom won't appear if he was cloney, every newcomer seems to be based on the concept of all unique fight styles.
You do realize most people on Miiverse are like 7, right? Also, are you sure about Nintendo "buying" Sega? Sega isn't dead yet, and even if they did, Sonic wouldn't have 5 reps. I'm sure Tails would be added first also!
I thought this to! And remember the comment of Sakurai stating that in Pokémon, he takes very much notice of what is going on in the movies and what not? Pokémon Origins and the Mewtwo movie will certainly help then.
I found Starfy's deconfirmation to be so anti-climactic. Therefore Starfy confirmed.
It's your opinion that Chrom is boring, just like it's my opinion that Greninja is boring. And if Ike can be unique and not boring, then Chrom sure as hell can.
Unreasonable? You mean like having a perfectly balanced roster and competitive gameplay in a party/fighting game?
Congratulations for finding a bunch of spin-off titles. Again, I don't know why you feel the need to argue this, but I'd rather not continue a pointless argument.
Also, I never played as a trainer in THIS game:
I could go in if you like.
I have to agree with Saturn here. There is simply no reason for Jigglypuff to get in over Ganondorf. Ganondorf is far more important to Zelda than Jiggly is to Pokemon.
There's a difference between a relatively unknown assist trophy being deconfirmed on a pic of the day and Ridley, one of the most requested characters for smash, having his shadow shown and not even having his name mentioned in a smash direct. Again not saying he's likely any more but I didn't hear Sakurai even say his name last night.
She was low priority in Brawl anyway.
I agree Chrom is not unique. But, remember how every newcomer revealed for Melee was unique in the first trailer, remember all the unique characters revealed for Brawl? Yeah, those games had clones/pseudo clones in them. Thinking there won't be pseudo clones this time because "characters must be unique" is just as delusional now as it was when everyone thought that before Brawl.
Ganondorf may be more iconic, but playability wise, he's just another tough guy. His moves had to be copied from Captain Falcon.
