Why hype Metaknight? BECAUSE METAKNIGHT IS FCUKING AWESOME.
And with that, Sensai makes his triumphant return!
I noticed we were talking about Yoshi a while back (read: 10 pages, i.e., yesterday) and I would like to point out that his grab, Melee style, is SHORTER then Marth's. Yes, I'm ****in' serious. The kid needs some crazy *** lovin'.
I think, Dev, that we're supposed to believe that he's behind at least a part of it. Remember, Sakurai is originally HAL, meaning crazy Kirby loving, meaning...anti-Metaknight. Jeah, it's a stretch, but it makes at least a little bit of sense.
And what is this about free money? And Fawriel, I thought that you were MY fanboy!! Oh well, Aeris and I will share.
<3
Thank you for pointing out that Yoshi thing...That's exactly the kind of re-vamping he needs! Many nic nacs and gimmicks can be thrown into this game for everycharacter and Yoshi can totally become one of those characters that "you can get good fast, but to be great in another question" because he should have versitiliy out the ying-yang. (Yoshi's yy is a big one too)
And yes META KNIGHT IS ****IN AWESOME!
I think since Metaknight also will be able to play through the SE that he probably isn't the cause of it. I don't think nintendo would want you to play through SE as the cause of that stuff and win (doesn't fit with their good guys always win thing).
However I agree with Sensai, METAKNIGHT IS FCUKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He needs no hype...he creates it by his mere presence.
So, true...META KNIGHT IS FCUKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
"Da-da-da-daaaaaaaah!
You got a green rupee!
Don't spend it all at once!"
As for Metaknight, well... he was pretty highly requested for Melee and people love him, so they were all like "yay Metaknight" when they saw the trailer, now there are updates and everyone's all "where's Metaknight" and then Sakurai reveals Subspace Emissary and everyone's like "There's Metaknight, but what the hell is he doing!"
That guy's getting all kinds of hype. Sakurai's making him seem mysterious...
I believe this means that he will be the final update concerning Subspace Emissary ( hints towards his role ) and the first update starting the revelation of unlockables.
So far, all the newcomers that were revealed are most likely starters. Ike and Pokemon Trainer also seem like starter types.
Unlockables are usually villains ( won't readily start joining in a jolly battle like this before you defeat them ), sidekicks ( not important enough to be starters ) or completely new and somewhat surprising guys.
Fire Emblem characters are not a surprise anymore, so Ike's probably a starter, and Trainer is just... the type of guy you start with, eh?
It's hard to argue a point completely based on gut feelings.
And I can't think here...
Source?
Yes Ike is a starter...I was expecting Marth to be the FE started but what ev'/Since when is Bowser unlockable or Jiggs a villian? jk lol
Seriously though, "Theory on Meta Knight!
Me quoted 08/04/07
I think Kirby and Mario fight for the "royalties entertainment" sort of thing, then the black things come. Mario gets ambushed and he is stalled while the others are captured. As the ship flies away with them inside, Zelda comunicates with Link through the triforce or something and he goes to save her but he needs help. She tells him Kirby and Peach are there too and so Link goes to get Yoshi for help. He finds Yoshi but they are too late.
Mario: Fighting black dudes.
Peach and Zelda: escape and have to save Mario and Kirby
Kirby: Has to fight Meta Knight on the ship to his doom
Link and Yoshi: Travel following the ship
Along the way: Samus and Fox are imformed and come to help (Fox being shot at by Halberg)
Pit is on his own quest and Platuna tells him they're (Peach ect.) in danger and he later leaves to find them.
After Kirby fights Meta Knight, Meta Knight tells Kirby that the "dark magic guys" have taken over his ship and he's just playing along as a bad guy to find a way to stop them or find their plan.
At the end, Master hand has devised a plot to put an end to the SUPER SMASH BROS forever
Meta Knight as a starter though!
And yes! I almost cried when he wasn't in melee!!!!!

Saki healed my broken heart with Brawl!
