It was unique to Sonic back in Brawl, which was my point, which adds up to the whole infamous rushjob they did with Sonic in Brawl
Bandana Dee punching Popstar in half.
Probably thought his alt skin reference was good enough and called it a day.
Well than I for one must respectfully disagree with Sakurai on this matter.
You know that he is a proud boomer when basically almost every modern representation of series like Street Fighter and Megaman aren't prominently present, I don't know what happened to Wario and Sonic tho, it's surprising that he enjoyed 3D Sonic game and only WarioWare stuff is properly represented.
A boomer should still be willing to give Street Fighter Alpha/III some songs. As for Wario, how he's represented in Smash make me even more curious about a timeline in which Sakurai decided to put him in Melee. Can't be focused on Ware in 2001.
I'm actually interested if he had that, I mean he could easily make up moves for Retro Hayabusa, I mean you don't see Ice Climbers have ice power in their original game.
Making up moves for a character which has an entire moveset across 3 games is just incredibly lame. Man has too many stylish moves to just have generic kicks and slashes.
Even Mr. SFII Boomer didn't ignore later games to complete Ryu and Ken's movesets. Why would it be different for the other Ryu?
Can't argue with that, I mean he can squeeze in the chain scythe thingy and ninpo so there wouldn't be any problem.
I guess. He more just takes from the titles that made the biggest impacts, really. With Mega Man, it's the older ones. With SF, obviously 2 reigns in a league of its own. But on the other hand, how much content did we get from Persona 1 and 2?
I mean not even the Atlus remember that Persona 1 & 2 exist other than Velvet Room and Igor, now that you think about it there's not really a specific Persona game that have a large impact until recently with Persona 5 with an F ton of crossover with other game and basically up there as the most crossed over SEGA Character. Persona 4 has decent review, has a fighting game and basically kickstart Dancing and Q series but that isn't really that big
I get the reasoning but Marx has a strong legacy within Kirby as seen with how almost every final boss since 2005 or so keeps re-using Marx's moveset. Teleports and lasers generic enough to be a coincidence nor did Marx invent that in the series but every ****ing final boss Kirby fights these days uses those cutters. If you ask me, the solution is simply add more boss fights
Yeah...but when so many different franchises with iconic bosses don't have a boss fight at all yet, any franchise getting a 2nd one anytime soon doesn't appeal to me.
The solution is add more boss fights as a whole so multiple franchises have multiple bosses. Boom
That would be a pretty sick Final Smash, but Judgement or Demolition are also good possibilities for that. Though I guess it depends on whether Sakurai would go for DMC3 Dante or DMC5 Dante.
I think we could get a Non-Sakurai Kirby Character this Pass, but it definitely won't be Bandanna Dee. As much as Dee would be great, I think the more likely option is a Modern Kirby. A Kirby who, instead of copying the opponent's Neutral Special, will instead get one of 10 Preset Abilities depending on the Fighter. I'd imagine they would probably be Sword, Beam, Hammer, Parasol, Fire, Ice, Spark, Fighter, Spear, and Cutter. Essentially, the Special Button will be Inhale, until you inhale someone. When you inhale someone, your Specials just become that Kirby Moveset, but slightly more balanced lol. When you get an Ability, you get a Health Bar that you get. Once it's depleted, you lose the Ability. Imagine it looks like the Health Bar from Star Allies. I think this would be a Great Neutral Special, but you'd probably have to unlock them first by doing the Original 8's Classic Mode First lol. Just so he doesn't make Beginners Angry, you know?
honestly that's probably the least likely and most uneccesary option for a non-sakurai kirby rep
Then again, thinking about how crazy some of the DLC has gotten (Command Menu, Look ma, no Specials!, and Steve in his entirety), I think it's the type of unpredictability that could happen looking at the DLC so far.
yeah but a second version of a prexisting character that isn't super noticably different just doesn't seem in the cards
So instead of Bandana Waddle Dee or...literally anyone else, you think our next Kirby character is going to be Kirby?
even if that doesn't happen I hope he becomes a skin next game
True, but even then Smash Kirby uses his Super Star Proportions, while I'd imagine Modern Kirby would use his Return to Dreamland Proportions.
his proportions seem the same to me, or at least similar enough that there isn't much of a noticable difference
They probably wouldn't since if Kirby or Kirb are facing away from the camera for any reason you won't be able to tell who's who. There are ways around that but the chance of them implementing one of them are low. Would be really neat though.
Current Kirby is smaller overall, with longer arms, and smaller feet. Super Star Kirby is bigger overall, with smaller arms, and bigger feet. Main thing he inherited from Modern Kirby was his Voice, His Final Smash, and his Blushing being a Circle lol.
one idea I had is that classic kirb is gray like the dl1 boxart
still it's not enough of a noticeable difference, most people wouldn't notice.
