Interesting, though Scorps and Sub-Zero would be the only ones I'd care about; I would be okay with the others, though. Now here's my FP idea (though it'd be separated into to FP's):
It has Scorpion and a Sub Zero Echo? Sold. I’d buy sixty bucks for that alone. Gengar is also pretty cool.
I was trying for kind of a middle ground with mine. They were all characters I really wanted but still have enough general appeal for everyone. If I was going with my dream picks it might be Battletoads, Zegram, Magus, Illidan, and Gengar.
Yeah no.
Honestly? I feel like they made the right choice, although I would've slightly preferred Jin to be our Tekken rep since his design is cooler.
The Smash Wiki lists Ganondorf's species as "Gerudo", while it lists Ganon's species as "Demon."
Yeah, I think this is the biggest issue. There just isn't a clear frontrunner for the ATs to rally behind. The obvious one is Waluigi, but a lot of people are hesitant on someone not being from a new setting. There's Isaac and his massive popularity, but Golden Sun... Let's just say it's seen better days. There's also Shovel Knight, who's honestly kind of a sleeper pick at the moment, but indies in general are often shot down because "The biggest ones have only been supporting content..." Which, funnily enough, includes Shovel Knight himself.
Well, we only play as the humanoid form, so I wouldn't count him as a proper Demon rep. Final Smash we can't actually control either like we could with Giga Bowser. If we could, though, totally both.
Which brings me to a question: How come Ninty isn't adding any indies to the roster? They'd be pretty cheap, and they'd sell for lots of money (especially if they're big indies like Undertale or FNAF); it'd be foolish for Nintendo to pass up such a lucrative opportunity.
Since the red aura (I'm assuming it's the Rage mechanic from Tekken 7) was seen getting activated on hit and there are clips of Devil Kazuya without it, I think that's the comeback mechanic, which would make it highly unlikely for Devil Kazuya to be one (imagine a character with 2 comeback mechanics tho...).
Yeah, it's a shame that indie characters are still in "I'll believe it when I see it" territory.
I guess that's why Sakurai decided to make him a Mii costume again, huh?
Big deal, we already got plenty of mustachios; plus, even though Kaz doesn't have a mustache, he makes up for it with bushy eyebrows.A mustache.
Really? Huh, thats kinda lame.A mustache.
I was speaking in the context of Tekken, not Smash.
If they based him on Tekken 3/Tag 1, then potentially. But Jin has had a completely different moveset since Tekken 4 so I'm not sure how viable the idea is.
Eh... From a personal standpoint, most of these guys are cool, but I'm not going out of my way to root for them. Without my biases, genre-wise it's mostly platformers, and they're all fairly common predictions. Not that it's inherently bad, but I think Smash should also have that element of surprise that makes you go "WAIT, I DIDN'T EVEN THINK OF THAT!" It's like having a bunch of solid instruments that just don't really mesh with each other for whatever reason and end up giving you a sub-par song overall.
The post wasn't meant for you in particular anyway. I've seen this sentiment popup a few times.
Oh, okay. Apologies. Electric Wind God Fist is a pretty popular move in Tekken, it started in Tekken 3 as a move exclusive to Jin, before later being extended to Heihachi. That’s likely where Heihachi got his electric aesthetic in PASBR.
I hope it's hyper realistic for meme purposes.
Well it's definitely one of the easiest to produce so I wouldn't be surprised if they made an Amiibo for Alex, Zombie, and Enderman too.
This kinda reminds me of a Twitter post I saw that described FP2 as the "Please Play Other Games, We Are On Our Knees Begging" pass.
So, you’re implying that they lost the ability to change the base game when they began DLC orrrr? I’m genuinely confused.
you’ve lost all my respectYou mean like this:
...Ten times better than that awful 4chan thing. That much I can say. Still bad. ._.You mean like this:
* checks what website the pic came from *
Well then, in that case, here's my FP idea with those guidelines adhered to:
Yeah I agree. That’s why I tried to go with a different genre and feel for each character in my list. I also tried to keep it to mostly iconic characters that I feel don’t really get enough attention so almost all of them would still be really surprising. I went with Akira as well to represent a newer Nintendo title that has a ton of potential for a Smash character.
I determine whether a selection is good by how well it holds up years down the line. How surprising a character is has little bearing on that, and when it does it's usually in a negative way.
An actually likeable personality.
