I'd bet dollars to doughnuts they made that decision for the purpose of gauging interest in the series.
I'd wait for the new one and see if you're interested in backtracking afterwards.
I hate waiting but sure I'll try
well now I really can't wait
B-B-B-B-BOOOSTO I feel like a badass just breaking through Grocks
Naw. Dillon being an Echo of Sonic just wouldn't work. I wouldn't mind it too much if it were actually feasible, but looking at Sonic's moveset, it really isn't. Dillon's legs aren't nearly as long proportional to his body the way Sonic's are, and Sonic uses his legs extensively in Smash, like in his Up Air, Down Air, Down Smash, etc. These moves couldn't work on Dillon unless they made his legs longer, which would be incredibly jarring. The only moves I can see translating decently from Sonic to Dillon are Sonic's Up Smash, Neutral Air, Down Throw.... and that's kind of it. Not even Sonic's Spin Dash would work well as Dillon's Charge Roll, as Dillon uses his roll as a ramming attack, so having it go through enemies the way the Spin Dash does wouldn't feel right. In any case, Dillon's proportions just wouldn't work for Sonic. Just look at their models:
For the first question, have you met a pelican named Anton yet? I forgot when he's actually available so maybe you have already met him, but just in case, Anton lets you play a little minigame called Anton Ball that you can play three times an in-game day to win clay figures that you can sell for some pocket money. Collecting 10 Glass Beads gives you a free play when you usually have to pay 100G to play.
No prob! Though if you're pretty far then I think you must have just not seen him all this time, cause I recall meeting him pretty early on. Anton is right in front of the gates of the city. So, exit the hotel, take a right and go all the way to the end of the road, and Anton should be there.
Likewise; I started scribbling down a rough move-set based on that first trailer alone. It just felt like Dillon was designed as a character with a future in Smash. Here's hoping that future is now.
Thanks for informing us; it's appreciated!
Wow; that is really neat. Whilst I doubt we'll get up to 86 original move-set characters (that would be a pleasant surprise though), it's terrific to see this all the same. Thank you!Dillon has one of the coolest designs of a Nintendo protagonist in recent memory and he can bring some cool things to Smash. I made these for you guys =)
Thank you. The 86 number is there just for the looks. I'm going in order following different characters starting from 66 onwards
I'm keeping my expectations low for him being playable myself, since Dillon really doesn't have the popularity that many other candidates have... I feel like if he got in, he would get a lot of backlash from a lot of fans who would consider him a "wasted slot," and I feel like Sakurai would know this... It would be fantastic if he got in though. So I really am hoping that if he doesn't make the cut for playable, that his Assist Trophy will return, featuring him in his Dead Heat Breakers getup (With hopefully some new moves to go with it). Cause lemme tell ya, I was pumped when is Assist Trophy was revealed in Smash 4 because I loved his game, and I didn't think that he would get any representation in Smash at all, so I'm really hoping that he stays in, one way or the other. Worst case scenario for me is for Dillon to get the Isaac treatment in Smash 4 and have his Assist Trophy cut...
