Character Discussion Thread

[False Sense]

So, now that we know that Pac-Man part is fake, what about the other images? I've heard some say that the Pac-Man "leak" was from a different individual. Is that possible? For example, is that angle in the Pac-Man "leak" possible to replicate from the other pictures? If it's not, then the pictures probably came from the same source, and he's just changing things up a bit with each picture.

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

Ok, leak busted, nice try!

Next topic please!

 

[Bauske]

Actually from the looks of things, it's still alive. According to the Rumors/Leaks thread, the debunked picture was leaked by someone with a different ID.

Really? Hmm.. I'm still on the fence about it. While it does look official, and the roster would be absolutely wonderful with 50 characters (plus make us all happy with Pac-Man AND Ridley from the looks of it), but it's just the fact that he can't get anything new in there that makes it fishy for me. Why not just snap a pic of Ridley?

 

[BluePikmin11]

The leak is not dead yet:

244945451 is the Pacman/Ridley pic ID. What is the ID of the original Leaker?

Edit: They are different IDs. Leak still alive. But now we know that people are trying to fake the pics

While we're on the topic of PacMan, what would his final smash be?

While we're on the topic of PacMan, what would his final smash be?

Is there any question about what that would be?

Power Pellet.

 

[Kenith]

While we're on the topic of PacMan, what would his final smash be?

He turns into classic Pacman and chases his enemies around trying to eat them

It's so obvious that even you could come up with it.

 

[Bauske]

That's the easiest final smash in the history of Smash bros., if you ask me.

He eats a power pill, gains speed and flight (similar to Pikachu and Sonic's final smash) and chases after the other players who all get a blue hue to them. Upon making contact with them, he chomps, they take massive damage, get sent flying, and possibly KO'd. After a couple seconds, they flash white, then back to normal and it ends.

Or as others have suggested, instead of staying normal and flying, he could transform into a giant original Pac-Man sprite, a la Game & Watch, and only be able to move in four directions while chasing people down.

That's one of the funniest things I've ever heard, but I totally agree with this prediction

 

[MagnesD3]

Landmaster.

 

[Bauske]

Landmaster.

I literally LOL'd.

 

[Kenith]

I swear, if something else is his FS, I'll scream.

Personally, I think his E3 trailer should be this:

It starts with a full view of the first board in Pac-Man, the original arcade version. It plays as normal, then the camera zooms out to reveal the arcade cabinet it's playing on, and that the arcade cabinet is sitting in the background of Battlefield, where Mario, Link, Kirby and Pikachu are battling. Then suddenly, Pac-Man bursts out of the arcade cabinet.

"Pac-Man Chomps In!"

Then there is a gameplay montage of him, ending with his Final Smash.

Obvious and easy, but awesome.
That's one that would have me grinning like an idiot every time I pulled it off.

Or what if it zoomed out to show Mario playing the arcade game cabinet, with Link, Samus, and maybe someone else in line behind him to play. Then Pac-Man walks up casually like "hey, what's going on here?" They do a double take at each other, Pac-Man eats a power pill, and chases them off screen. Que montage of Pac-Man footage.

 

[Shagadelic_Baby]

Oh, thank God the leak wasn't debunked. I'm seriously hoping that roster is real, tho'.

Oh god, that is actually way better. Though it does seem a bit too similar to WFT's.

 

[Bauske]

True. That's probably where I got the idea. xD

Also, can I say that your attitude has been really awesome? You went from thinking Pac-Man had no place in Smash to accepting him as a possible character. I know he's not still a wanted newcomer for you, but the fact that you're okay with him now does put a smile on my face. I think that if he is revealed, his reveal trailer is going to change a lot of people's minds.

I still think that Pac-Man representing the new show doesn't belong; however, representing the arcade game, or just himself (who is synonymous with said game) I think does belong, because it is relevant to Nintendo, and cherished by countless people, and really, how could I say no to that?

Or, Pac-Man is in the maze, going about business as usual, when he comes across a Smash Ball, which he promptly eats. It gives him so much power he goes shooting through the wall of the maze and into a match.
That's my prediction.

 

[Kenith]

I think we've pretty much all agreed that Pac-Man's trailer has to involve the arcade machine somehow.

I would actually like to see his trailer have the 3 big mascots in the game (Mario, Sonic, and Megaman) duking it out. Then Pac-Man comes and interrupts the battle, it then shows gameplay footage and ends with this.

Spoiler

 

[Thirdkoopa]

seems legit

Pac-Man was def posted by someone else. I've been lurking /v/ ever since this madness started.

 

[Invisible Shiny Bulbasaur]

Does anybody else wonder why only the Villager received an invite (in a visible envelope) in his trailer? It's implied Mac was invited, but everyone else is like, "Surprise! I'm here to hit you in the face!"

AAHH! That image! Hahaha, that would be hilarious! :D

Yeah, Rosalina and Greninja just sort of forced their way in. Rude.

 

[shrooby]

You think that's rude?
I'd bet that Greninja stole his invite from Mewtwo. Now that's rude.

Maybe they got an invite and are coming in surprising them? I mean, Villager and Little Mac still surprised them.

 

[False Sense]

Only Villager and Little Mac were actually invited; everyone else just forced their way in. Mega Man and Greninja ambushed the fighters in the middle of a match, Wii Fit Trainer barged in while they were doing warm ups, and Rosalina sabotaged a race to get in.

 

[Deleted member]

I would believe it.

 

[Kenith]

I should probably quote myself again:

It would be funny if every character's reveal trailer was Greninja.

Villager gets a letter in the mail, opens it, Greninja riding a torrent of water flies out. Greninja Makes a Splash!

Mega Man stands on a cliff, then suddenly Greninja flies in riding a torrent of water. Greninja Makes a Splash!

Mario, Link, and Kirby are doing fitness poses, then it pans to Greninja doing a pose, and he blast them away with a torrent of water. Greninja Makes a Splash!

Rosalina floats down onto Rainbow Road, then Greninja flies out from under her dress riding a torrent of water. Greninja Makes a Splash!

Little Mac is training when suddenly Greninja bursts out of Doc Louis's chocolate bar riding a torrent of water.
Greninja Makes a Splash!

Those are clean.

The pac-man one is dirty.

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

How do you know they weren't invited?

Villager appeared out of nowhere in the middle of Mario and Bowser's fight. If not for that scene at the beginning, you wouldn't have known Villager had received an invitation.

[Kenith]

I'm assuming those leaks are true because, again, there's no space for Ghirahim.

 

[Invisible Shiny Bulbasaur]

Yeah, Rosalina and Greninja just sort of forced their way in. Rude.

Well, Greninja is a ninja.
But Rosalina just sort of, shows up. Like she just wanted to find out who was driving karts around in her yard.
Wii Fit Trainer is more like "You're doing it WRONG!"
Mega Man is just epic though.

 

[False Sense]

I'm assuming the leaks are false, while simultaneously assuming there will be no room for Ghirahim.

 

[Kenith]

Didn't ask you.

 

[False Sense]

Didn't ask you.

You didn't really ask anyone; therefore, you asked everyone.

 

[Kenith]

You didn't really ask anyone; therefore, you asked everyone.

.......I like your logic. We can put this Ghirahim business aside us and be friends.

 

[BluePikmin11]

Evidence just keeps on rolling.

 

[shrooby]

I should probably quote myself again:

What about Greninja's trailer?
