My personal favorite is Black Mage.
Alternis Dim AT or bust
Unfortunately, Gordon Freeman is actually not possible.
I don't think Psychonauts has been relevant to gamers in years, not to mention the director scored controversy points with Anita Sarkezian and his gamergate sock puppet thing
And more importantly, I don't recall Razputin ever appearing on a Nintendo platform.
I don't Suppose the Runner 2 DLC pack counts?
If we discount Geno's appearance in Superstar Saga then we discount that. Just like we wouldn't count Cinema from a Kamen Rider game
"As Cloud held Link's hand romantically, brushing off some dust off his shirt, Link said EEEYAAAAAAAA"The day Cloud appears in Smash would be the day more Cloud x Link fan fiction happens. Second thought, I'd rather not think too hard about such horrible writing from fangirls.
Love how X-ray and Vav basically summed up fan-fictions in today's episode.The day Cloud appears in Smash would be the day more Cloud x Link fan fiction happens. Second thought, I'd rather not think too hard about such horrible writing from fangirls.
I proposed a similar idea for Lucina but in her Great Lord attire with the Butterfly shield in an attempt to give her some more changes without making her completely different from Marth.
The Fire Emblem is a badge that gives Marth infinite keys in his games though, Chrom has it as a shield, Marth gets a kiddy badge. A kiddy badge that's more than for looking pretty with
Humor me.
Clearly the niche of awesome characters, but I didnt think we could have too many of those.
IMO, Aether should be Side-B and Galeforce should be Up-B. I mean, Galeforce is associated with Pegasus Knights(well, Dark Flier, but still a promotion of Pegesus Knight), so it sounds reasonable to have it be used for her Up-B.Have I shared how I think they could change Lucina's specials to differentiate herself from Marth and be based on the skills she can learn from Awakening?
If not:
B: Galeforce (Dashing Assault + Quick Draw) - Lucina readies her sword and dashes forward and slashes. Creates a blast of wind on either side of her.
Side B: Astra (Dancing Blade) - Lucina performs five quick advancing attacks. Like a fixed version of Dancing Blade, with an extra attack at the end.
Up B: Aether (Dolphin Slash + Aether) - This is my favorite. Lucina does an upward swing with her sword and flies upward, then comes back down into a two-handed downward slash.
The upward slash will heal Lucina for 2% while the falling strike shatters shields. Like Aether in Awakening, but in the opposite order.
Down B: Still Counter, could be replaced with Pavise/Aegis like that one Lucina mod for PM.
I admit, I chuckled.
I honestly feel as if this exchange is becoming full of rhetorical questions...
Technically true, but unlike the other three, Excitebiker isn't solely representive of the days of the past.
had was Gyromite and Stack-Up. had was Duck Hunt. And Wild Gunman and Hogan's Alley if you want to go by how they represent those games as well in Smash. had the Game & Watch line of handhelds from 1980 to 1991. Sure, there were the Mario-themed remakes from 1997-1999 prior to Melee, but those are just remakes.This is an impossible claim at this point in time. Excitebiker literally cannot be considered part of this "niche" until after the fact.
No arguments there.
didn't have successful games.
Cloud seems like the most likely choice to me too. Square would probably only want to add him, as it's their biggest mascot. It's not like Konami chose Simon Beltmon to appear in Brawl for example, no they choose Snake because he's overall far better known.
Well, Konami didn't choose Snake, Snake was included because Kojima petitioned for it directly. Sakurai wasn't going to consider a Konami character for the sake of it, he just added Snake because Kojima is his buddy and the two went out of their way to arrange it with their respective companies.
, as he's simply the best character period. They where playing as if it was TAS. In their own tier list, which they separated from the human's because they 'couldn't play the game anyway', they eventually banned . was a strict Top Tier after that, because so many aliens used him.
Are you sure this wasn't some sort of weird prophecy?No these aliens where stubborn mules. Their reaction time was way faster than any average human, so a few aliens who went total "tier *****" all where picking

Bruh Star Man for Smash. Everyone should check out his thread since he is da best.Technically true, but unlike the other three, Excitebiker isn't solely representive of the days of the past.

Excitebiker has the original title, Excitebike 64, and the WiiWare title. And the Excite series in general also has the two Wii games, Excitetruck and ExciteBots.
This is an impossible claim at this point in time. Excitebiker literally cannot be considered part of this "niche" until after the fact.
Besides, the only latent "surprise" about Excitebiker being playable would be the fact he was outright rejected in the past (which in itself is still would not be much of a surprise because Villager broke that barrier already) and because he was initially an Assist instead of playable in the past as well (which Charizard and Little Mac had already broken the barrier for).
It would not work to the same degree as the other three, who were not discussed about previous consideration before their Smash debuts nor had roles in a previous Smash prior to their Smash debuts.
No arguments there.
He may have kept video games alive in the West during the Crash of '83 long enough for Mario to usher in the new era of gaming, but Gyromite and Stack-Up did not sell well.
NOTE: I have absolutely no problem with Excitebiker being in Smash if it's actually possible within reason.
I just have issue with the logic that he'd be within the same "niche" as G&W, R.O.B., and Duck Hunt when someone like Star Man would be closer to the "niche".
Well nightmare doesn't use his sword as a copter to hover in the air, nor does he bounce with it like a pogo stick...If we had to get Nightmare or Yoshimitsu from Bandai Namco, which one would you prefer?
I'd ultimately choose Yoshimitsu after considering the following reasons:
If Yoshimitsu does get in, there's a weird possibility he may also have M. Bison's outfit as an alternate costume.
- Much more interesting alternate costumes to use due to different characters taking up his name and sword
- Eccentric personality and eccentric fighting style for a sword user. (I'd like to hear him talk to the Nintendo characters ^_^)
- He's known for crossing over into different video game series (This doesn't really impress me much, but it's worth noting)
If Nightmare got in, I might have develop this headcanon that Soul Edge and Master Core are connected, fuhuhu.![]()
I say "weird" because Capcom would also have to be involved if this happens.
