Yeah I can see why you'd want those changed. Mine are Warlock punch, Eruption, and Wizard's foot. Ike having a sword beam or some such would fit him much more than eruption imo.

Yeah, I can see all of those too. I feel like Ike with Eruption was just a tribute to Roy. But Ike with fire just never seemed right to me. Wizard's Foot is pretty bad, I don't see any redeeming part of it. But I have to admit, connecting with a Warlock Punch is one of the most satisfying feelings to me. It honestly shouldn't happen, but when it does, it's feel absolutely amazing. Still a terrible move though.

So, any other worthwhile topics of discussion?

I have one. I've read a few posts/comments around the net claiming that the development team is reusing character voices from Brawl for certain characters like Mario and DK, rather than hiring voice actors and recording new voices and sound effects for every character.
This is based on the supposed fact that veterans shown in the trailers and game footage released so far have the same SFX as they did in Brawl.
Thoughts?

I doubt this will be true, and I hope it isn't, because I'd really prefer that the voices were up to date, especially for Pit and DK.

This is not the greatest move in the world, no, this is just a tribute.

Anyway, yeah, warlock punch is especially satisfying when you land a reversed one, lol. I would love it though, if Ganondorf used Warlock punch in a canon Zelda game.

I feared this might happen too.

I would really like to see Bowser with his canon voice.
Mario and Luigi's voices in Brawl were very lacking, I'd like some improvements on that. Link will likely reuse TP voice clips, although I prefer his Skyward Sword voice. Sonic won't use his old voice, obviously, because now he's voice by Chris Redfield.

Everyone else I don't care about.

I would not necessarily be surprised, but at the same time, the voice clips could be temporary. There is nothing that could objectively identify whether or not they will rerecord the voices.

So, here's my question; would all these additional "leaked" images based on that particular roster set up be possible to fake from the original images based on the camera angle? If they could be faked, then, well, those images are just people making stuff out of that original image. If it couldn't be faked, than it could all be originating from the same individual, who's just adding things over time.

It's Sakurai, he heard people were finally managing expectations before E3 so he had to make sure we don't sleep until then.

Please no. I don't need sore throat Mario and boring DK/Bowser again. I just hope they're placeholders or the results of porting over.

I already said it before but I'll say it again, I hope the Star Fox crew get a voice change, especially Wolf (And maybe Falco) with the exception of Fox.

To be perfectly honest, if they just update Pit's voice to the Kid Icarus: Uprising version, I'd be perfectly fine with that. Sonic's voice was already shown to be updated to his current voice actor, so he's fixed. And to me (and I'm sure to a lot of other people), Pit and Sonic's voices were the biggest offenders.

Well let's be fair here, anyone that has actually played Fire Emblem: Awakening will easily say Chrom is a pretty lousy character.

I've played Awakening and I can tell you that Chrom is not a lousy character. PLEASE quit trying to bomb everybody who supports Chrom

Seriously,what's your deal with Chrom? I may have to report a hate crime.
Click to expand...
I'm guessing it's either one of two reasons:

1. He doesn't want 3 blue-haired dudes with swords in the roster. That's kinda a lack of variety, in my opinion at least.

2. He didn't like Chrom's character in Awakening. I've played that game myself, and I was pretty indifferent to Chrom, but I see a lot of people hate on him for some reason. I will say he's a pretty generic hero guy though, which is kinda boring.
