Melee Ganondorf > Brawl Ganondorf
Melee Falco > Brawl Falco
Young Link > Toon Link (I have no idea why they got rid of the things that made Young Link particularly different from Link.)
Doctor Mario > Melee AND Brawl Mario.


Hmm, yes. Falcon aside, I main Doc and Falco in Melee.
Well then, let's just make Mario a better character and avoid this roster-filling nonsense.

EDIT: Our avatars are going to make this discussion 'that' much better. :laugh:

Irrelevant point.
You gave the point (or to be exact, you quoted someone else's point) that sleep = Jigglypuff because sleep would be redundant otherwise because of stun. However, the point of redundancy is invalid due to the fact it was redundant to begin with (even more so with both statuses using the same damn animation in 64), and more sleep-inducing elements have been brought into Smash since Melee (where unique animations were given) and sleep has been given reverse properties to stun (sleep lasts longer the more damage a character has, while higher damage makes it easier to snap out of stun), making sleep less redundant.
Ergo sleep =/= Jigglypuff automatically.


More people see Toon Link as more acceptable than Dr. Mario.
Personally, I see them roughly the same.
I can sort of see your point. Though I think why people are slightly more accepting to Toon Link, is that he's a different size, and he's one of the more prominent incarnations of the character. Having said that, he's still gets his fair share of backlash too. I think more people would be accepting of Dr.Mario if he ever gets some new moves.

Wasn't Samus significantly better in Melee than Brawl too? Or were you just talking about clones?

Unless they pull a Project M and gave Mario some of Doc's best attributes, I really don't like combo-heavy Mario compared to powerhouse Doc.

It's the subtle things that made me appreciate the roster in Melee. You don't play Falco the same as Fox, or Roy the same Marth. I concede that Roy and Pichu are ass though, but Doc, Ganon, Falco and Young Link are pretty cool.

It's like the same reasons why I prefer Akuma over Ryu or Evil Ryu. E.Ryu is closer though.

Dr. Mario is sort of a missed opportunity in a sense that he could of wielded all sorts of doctor equipment with concepts like inflicting status to gain an edge over his opponent. It's pretty much the only option for that sort of character in Super Smash Bros., the next best thing would be the nurse from Kid Icarus.

Regardless, Dr. Mario was planned to return to Brawl as his own separate character. If he is going to be in Smash 4, he will be in as a separate playable character and not as a costume. That is all.

To be honest, I just don't get the hate for clones. Different attributions can be enough to drastically change the character.

What I was trying to say there, giving them different moves doesn't mean they'll be better. In Melee, Falco was a very versatile character with so many options, but in Brawl he was pretty much limited to poking and keeping away with lazers. I think Brawl Falco is fine, but compared to Melee Falco he's just not as fun.

And we all know how Ganondorf turned out.

Imagine he if he has a giant needle for some moves.

It's really based on how well the original characters are balanced. Still, I'm not the biggest clone hater either. Which is sort of why I'm not opposed to the idea of having Doc Mario coming back. I liked both versions of Mario. But I prefer Fox from Falco. Ganon could use some buffs, but he's still a fun character to use.

Blame time constraints. :p

I hope that Dr. Mario and Dr. Luigi are costumes.
I think we will just Dr. Mario as a possible costume.

I honestly didn't mind clones that much. My only problem with Melee's clones was Pichu...cuz why? Not only was he completely unecessary, he was significantly worse than Pikachu to the point that I think he was considered the worst character. I actually liked how Doc was compared to Mario, and I liked Young Link significantly more than Link, mainly cuz of his bombs. I didn't play much Roy cuz I didn't like Fire Emblem at the time, but he was more fun than Marth, to me at least. I didn't play Ganon cuz I just thought it was weird that he was made a clone of a character that already had a moveset made out of thin air.

Edit: In short, I don't mind clones, they do have different playstyles than their counterparts and even though the moves are the "same", the attributes are different enough to be their own character and make you play differently than you would if you were to play with their counterpart.

Pichu and Dr. Mario really irked me in Melee.

I mean, there's two slots completely wasted... I'm not saying Doc was a bad character, but Doc's good qualities should have just been combined with Mario.

I agree with Golden about Dr.Mario.

If Dr. Mario wasn't his own character in Melee, then I'd certainly approve of the idea of a costume, but... It's just this silly stance of mine that goes "once a Smasher, always a Smasher", so reducing a character to a costume wouldn't bode well with me, even if they are different forms/professions of the same person...

If Dr. Mario did come back as a costume (which seems like the more likely scenario as I doubt the Melee clones will return for SSB4), I would be somewhat happy for Sakurai trying the best he can to "include" a Melee clone in, but I'd still be sad over the loss of a full character and the loss of Dr. Mario's attributes, like the reverse sex kick.

Reverse sex kick was so fun with Doc.

It's just so satisfying to actually hit with the strong version of it. Too bad only Doc has it, or maybe that's a good thing.

Dumb question: If Doc is so much better than Mario, why don't they just give Mario Doc's attributes, sans the pills?

He's not MUCH better. I'd say he is better, but not by a big margin. Anyway, it's preferences really. Mario is combo heavy, but Doc is a powerhouse who can kill quick if he get the hit.

Also I think Doc is a bit weird for him to be a standard character. Reverse sex kick aside, his recovery is ass and he also has pretty short range and more lag on his aerials. Mario is pretty balanced aside from his lack of KO power.

I wonder what would happen if realism was put into effect if you got hit by too many pills.

So let's play a game.

Let's say that the roster for the next installment was going to be incredibly big, and you were put in charge of the character roster. You would have to give every single franchise 4 more characters, (if possible.) Who would you pick?

Holy balls, I don't think I can do that. Especially with the likes of Game & Watch, Ice Climber, and R.O.B.

I'll try a couple franchises, why not.

Metroid: Ridley, Weavel, Sylux, Dark Samus

Legend of Zelda: Pig Ganon, Vaati, Majora, Ghirahim

Super Mario Bros: Paper Mario, Waluigi, Geno, Fawful

MOTHER: Porky, Jeff, Duster, Claus

F-Zero: Black Shadow, Samurai Goroh, Deathborn, Jody Summers

Well let's get @LancerStaff over here then.
...I'm here.
.....



That's what I get for not noticing that who I made the reply to initially was not the same user who replied to my reply.

Jokes aside, I doubt they'd port over and make new animations for an incredibly minor thing like one Pokeball 'mon nobody would miss. Only one character uses it, and it'd be almost entirely redundant without the character to use it, AKA Jigglypuff. It has it's own animation now which is 100% confirmed to be in SSB4. So, sleep effect + it's own unique animation = Jigglypuff in my book.
The Hands put opponents to sleep in the beginning of their Applause attack.
Peach's Final Smash puts opponents to sleep (yes, it's currently unconfirmed if she has the same FS as before, however unlike Luigi she hasn't been seen with a new one yet).
Togepi puts opponents to sleep occasionally through Metronome.
New addition Darkrai uses Dark Void to put opponents to sleep.
New addition Ashley uses a magic spell that does random effects on opponents; it is believed that putting them to sleep is one of those effects.

Aside from that, you appear to miss this detail:
sleep has been given reverse properties to stun (sleep lasts longer the more damage a character has, while higher damage makes it easier to snap out of stun), making sleep less redundant.
It's a rare status like Paralysis, Freezing, Bury, and Slip, but its not redundant without Jigglypuff.

Also, crawling was implemented in Brawl practically because of Snake. With crawling returning for Smash 4, does that automatically mean Snake's all but confirmed?


Give Dr. Mario a giant scalpel and a bag over his head.

Problem solved.
So...Dr. Waluigi?

I can sort of see your point. Though I think why people are slightly more accepting to Toon Link, is that he's a different size, and he's one of the more prominent incarnations of the character. Having said that, he's still gets his fair share of backlash too. I think more people would be accepting of Dr.Mario if he ever gets some new moves.
I rarely see backlash over Toon Link except from people that just dislike any kind of clone whatsoever. If it's true though, then I feel a little better about the situation.

Punch Out:
Lil Mac (standard in-fighting boxing character. Nothing special or specific. Specializes in staying in the opponent's face to maintain pressure.)
Don Flamenco (Out-boxer, counter-boxer. Specializes in spacing and footwork with range and speed to rack up damage to deliver the KO counter punch. However he's frail and can't take hits very well, nor does he hit very well himself.)
Mr. Sandman (Heavyweight boxer. A more brawler type who doesn't hit much but his hits are devastating. A bit slow in his feet but his punches are quick and powerful. Because these types of boxers have great chins, he can have super armor. He also gets a special stance called the Hitman Style - this can give him more range at the expense of defensive capabilities. )
Aran Ryan (A wild, brawler unorthodox boxer. More of a dirty trickster than a proper boxer. His unorthodox style makes him very unpredictable and dangerous, but once you figure him out his wild punches can easily be punished.)

Just punching? Nah.

I wouldn't care. The Smash Bros. series is essentially a non-canon fighting series where nothing stays true to scale. I'm pretty sure most people would liken that Ridley to the fake Kraid seen in Super Metroid.

""I am starting to think that the newcomers we have now are it.

I mean, its understandable that maybe Sal's tipper got possible E3 scenarios the first time and got more later on.

But where would he have gotten this from?

"Pokemon from X and Y" would imply that the tipper found some planning documents. I'd imagine, that these would have every newcomer in the game. Or at least, every planned newcomer.

Point is.... I find it odd that the leaker would get incomplete info from this point on. I also find it odd that the leaker would withhold info at this point.

So, yeah... I think only Mewtwo and other vets have a shot now."

Here's my post from the Sal thread.

I'd like to see some discussions on this.

Assuming the Sal leak is true of course.

Now, I don't want to hear SAL LEAK FAKE HURP DURP!

I want your opinion on that in the hypothetical situation that the Sal leak is true, does this logic make sense?

""I am starting to think that the newcomers we have now are it.

I mean, its understandable that maybe Sal's tipper got possible E3 scenarios the first time and got more later on.

But where would he have gotten this from?

"Pokemon from X and Y" would imply that the tipper found some planning documents. I'd imagine, that these would have every newcomer in the game. Or at least, every planned newcomer.

Point is.... I find it odd that the leaker would get incomplete info from this point on. I also find it odd that the leaker would withhold info at this point.

My question would be why did he withhold any information to begin with. He already did it once, so who's to say he wouldn't do it again, for whatever reason?

I don't believe the leak, though...

Its possible he only got info for potential E3 plans.

So then how did he find out about other characters? Assuming that he only got E3 plans would throw every other prediction of his into question, and I don't think that's where you want this discussion to go, is it?
