Character Discussion Thread

[True Blue Warrior]

So much hate on smashboards. Who do you guys think has the most animosity directed towards them in general (I don't mean who is the least popular, I mean who is the most commonly hated upon)?
-Chrom
-Miis
-Bandana Dee
-Ridley
-Tingle
-Chorus Men

Miis definitely.

Unless Medusa gets in first.

I really want Medusa, but i don't think we will get 2 new Kid Icarus characters

*crosses fingers*

 

[Baskerville]

I'd actually welcome Snake Lady Medusa with open arms.

 

[Will]

Too bad Kratos killed Medusa

Anyone up for a second Sonic rep?

Eh,not really. Throw that in the R34 area,that's where it truly belongs

I really don't think we need another "second Sonic rep" discussion.

 

[Bowserlick]

More Megaman characters before Sonic.

Here's a topic we can stay focused on : Character ENTRANCES.

Like Brawl and 64. Any of them need to updated or renewed? How about newcomers? I really want to know how the Villager,no,LITTLE MAC. How would his entrance go? I'm actually looking for suggestions,I have no idea how this will work out.

If you're still dazed on character entrances,it's just like Mario jumping out of his pipe,waiting for his other opponents to go into battle with their own unique entrances...or something like that.

I imagine Rosalina could launch in like a comet for her entrance.

Other than that, I don't really know.

If "Snake Lady" means a "Lamia version" of Medusa, I'm all in.

If "Snake Lady" is just referring to the fact she's got snakes in her hair, then I'd still be ok with her, but not before Palutena.

I think Sonic deserves two reps before Megaman honestly.

Villager Entry:
Option A) Bus drops him off after visiting the city.

Option B) Comes out of a random generated house.

 

[Deleted member]

I'm very interested to see what WFT's entrance would look like, right now I can't think of anything that would be used for her entrance aside from the Balance Board and I still am unsure as how to it would be implemented. The same goes for Little Mac.

The roster leak is fake..
congrats to all who thought it was fake.

 

[Backgammon]

While it might have been fake, I actually kinda like the way that the character portraits were handled at the bottom of the screen, it actually looks quite nice.

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

Good lord...Ridley's full body managed to be uglier than my drawing of it...

congrats to all who thought it was fake.

More like congrats to that one person somewhere who actually thought it was real.

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

God forbid we have more furries in the roster.

I'm more surprised people actually took this lousy mock up seriously.

This development should really not come as a surprise to anyone.

...But someone really needs to censor that Ridley. It's just too ugly...

Maybe we already know some of them *dramatic music* in their trailers Mega Man teleports and Little Mac removes his iconic pink sweatshirt and both seem like plausible entrances

 

[AncientTobacco]

I gotta hand it to him, making Ridley look that awful takes some real skill. I couldn't do it even if I tried.

 

[Maxilian]

Well... a list here:

Mario comes out of a pipe
Luigi comes out of a pipe too
Bowser comes out of fire portal (like in Brawl)
Peach comes out like these:

Kirby comes on his star
Rosalina falls down as a comet
Greninja appears out of the darkness
Sheik comes out of a smoke screen
Zelda teleports in
Yoshi comes out of a egg
Pikachu comes out of a pokeball
Jigglypuff comes out of a pokeball
Charizard comes out of a pokeball
Lucario appears in with his aura (like Brawl)
Megaman teleports in (with his blue laser that comes out of the sky)
Dk comes out of a barrel
Diddy Kong the same
Link comes out of a Tornado (like Brawl)
Little Mac takes out his pink shirt

etc...

 

[Freduardo]

Possibilities:

Little Mac jogs in after Doc Lewis (on his bicycle) and throws off his pink jumpsuit to reveal whatever mac costume, Regular, color alt, wire frame, SNES alt. He throws a few punches to psych up while Doc pedals away.

Little Mac comes from the player's perspective and walks up to the battlefield to punch out music.

Villager is brought in on a rickshaw by Tom Nook's nephews, they tell him for this service he is indebted to the Nook family and the only way to repay that debt is to beat every other smasher up.

Wii Fit Trainer floats down from the sky, sitting in a lotus flower position, like Dhalsim from Street Fighter.

...Greninja comes out of a ****ing pokeball.

Mega Man teleports in or even has his own robot master style intro where instead of seeing Elecman or Heatman in the center blue row, you see Mega Man. But probably telports in. Maybe teleports the helmet second like Marvel vs Capcom.

Rosalina rises from the planet's core, devouring an innocent Luma for sustenance, and tells a second luma to fight as she tells it to... or else.

Alright, maybe I went a little crazy.

 

[Joe D.]

Since Takamaru's gane comes out in a

I gotta hand it to him, making Ridley look that awful takes some real skill. I couldn't do it even if I tried.

That Ridley looks like Godzilla mixed with Barney.

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

...Greninja comes out of a ****ing pokeball.

Pfft. Greninja is too cool to come out of a Pokeball.

I'd imagine it'd be more like a generic black silhouette swooshing in at hyper-fast speed.

----

 

[Staarih]

Totally digging the idea of Little Mac taking off his hoodie before engaging into battle.

Rosalina I could see just simply descending from the sky, sort of like she (or Luma?) did in her reveal trailer.

As for the rest, I don't have enough imagination. I feel many veterans will keep the same ones they had. I don't remember if all Pokémon come out of Pokéballs or not - if they do, Greninja will probably too (maybe do some water or ninja stuff while at it). Villager's will be something cute. WFT will probably have a simple entrance (though I'd like it to be super glamorous to really contrast the plain look (s)he has).

 

[Louie G.]

That's why I don't believe in the leaks until confirmed. Rather play it that way to add some more deserving characters in like Isaac and Roy.

Roy is not a deserving character, but I won't get into that.

I wasn't really talking about doubting a character because they are NOT a safe bet, as Sakurai has shown us that nothing is a safe bet anymore, rather people tend to look at unconfirmed/not Sal Leak newcomers rather than the confirmed/Sal leak characters. Chorus Men and WFT are suddenly safe bets.

It's annoying.

I think Pit could come out of the magic door thing from Kid Icarus Uprising.

Even before Rosalina was confirmed I had an idea for hers, I really hope it happens now that she's in:

She's in her rocking chair holding her storybook open, with Lumas (1 of each color she uses and maybe polari and costar luma too) all around her, and she stands up and closes the book.

It's pretty simple but I'd love it.

 

[Pazzo.]

I really don't think we need another "second Sonic rep" discussion.

Thank you.

I think Pit could come out of the magic door thing from Kid Icarus Uprising.

After dieing, He still spawns by coming down from above, a la brawl... but Palutena's portals would be a neat entrance.

 

[BADGRAPHICS]

The roster leak is fake..
congrats to all who thought it was fake.

My word, I simply don't believe this could have been fake.
Ridley so lifelike. Such legit.

What I want to see in this game, is a pre-match cutscene for new characters. Before you all burn me at the stake, allow me to clarify that I know well aware of the scenario with curscenes at the moment, but I still feel this is possible.

So basically, after you achieve the criteria to unlock a certain character, you would get the warning screen. However, every newcomer you face would get their own unique cutscene prior to battle. For instance, I unlock Greninja. Before I fight him, I would get the character warning screen, and then, a small length cutscene of Greninja appearing on the stage you would fight him in would appear.

It might sound farfetched to some, but I would love this idea. It makes the newcomer that much more exciting to unlock.

I totally love that idea! Like have it somehow be a reference to their game as well. Not that I mind the standard black screen with "CHALLENGER APPROACHING" displayed on it, but an intro sequence, similar to the rivalries in Street Fighter IV, would be amazing. Doubtful, but amazing.

Wouldn't mind it all that much.

You could say they used that to an extent in Brawl's SSE with Wolf, Jigglypuff, and Toon Link.

Darn, now I'll be just slightly dissapointed if that's not in the game. I like the idea! It's just like finding Wolf, Jigglypuff, and Toon Link in subspace. With that being said, I would actually like to see something like that for every character in classic or all-star mode. Doubt it will happen, but it would be nice.

 

[kackamee]

Sal Romano leaked Shulk, that's all you need to know.

I hope to never see the day where Chorus Men get a roster slot before K. Rool, Ridley, or Waluigi.

Well if Sal Romano's leak is true (and it probably is), then Chorus Men is going to get in.

 

[Baskerville]

Well, we witnessed the day Wii Fit Trainer got a roster slot before K.Rool, Ridley or Waluigi.
E3 is going to be one hell of a show.

 

[Second Power]

I hope to never see the day where Chorus Men get a roster slot before K. Rool, Ridley, or Waluigi.

One of these is not like the others.
