I loved that game when I was 10 years old, I remember it was my 2nd owned Nintendo Gamecube game I got right after Super Smash Bros Melee back in 2003.What are you talking about Godzilla was already added in Melee
I think in regards to Final Fantasy XIII, no one really hated Lightning. But Square was definitely trying to push her in regards to the sequels and when they were really pushing her was when she became rather divisive among players.
Yeah, I was talking about Jump Force, which was a rather disappointing game to me. I probably would've enjoyed Jump All Stars, but I never was able to play the game.
I have nothing to add to the rest of what you said, but I wouldn't really call her FFXIV event a "big side quest"
I only remembered it being advertised a lot, so I assumed it was some notable side quest. Or was it nothing compared to some of the other cameos, like the Final Fantasy Tactics dungeon and the main boss cameos, like Kefka and Exdeath?
It was just a small event quest, similar to the Dragon Quest crossover, and it's not even around anymore. Kefka and Exdeath are full raid bosses (as are a lot of Final Fantasy villains/monsters/summons).
Nah makes it more likely lol. It would make Nintendo more money to sell Ultimate for two Generations and then make a New Game. Fighting Games almost always have Definitive Editions after the DLC is done, and I think Smash Ultimate would greatly benefit from one lol.
It would actually make less money, as I don't think that people want to be sold the same game again but with more content. That's one of the reasons why third versions for Pokemon became very unpopular and were eventually abandoned.
Fans don't, but the FF devs love her.
Don't forget about the Bowser's Inside Story disaster that killed Alphadream, especially since the game released in, like, the tail end of the 3DS's life.
Actually they became unpopular because Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon were almost exactly the same thing, except with some story changes that made them worse. "Pokémon Z" was highly anticipated, and from what I saw most people were excited for the idea of a director's cut version of the games when Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon were revealed, they just didn't turn out to be good.
Not the same thing. That one's a full-on remake, and Alphadream was already going down when they made it.
Makes sense to me, but the principle still stands; why play a new version of the game when you can play the original on the system the new one is compatible with? Especially since I heard that the new content in the new version isn't necessarily all that worth it.
Oh, people would. Nintendo got a lot of people to Double Dip with several titles from the Wii U when they got ported to Switch, so I’m confident they could get people to double dip on Smash.
apparently Alphadream was really desperate. They didn't have the funds to make a switch game, and they didn't have the time to make an original game. People prefer BiS to PiT, so they went with that one.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe outsold the original by almost 4 times the amount. It really just depends on how well the next system does.
That reminds me, I've been slacking off heavily on that dare I had for FF movesets. Still need to start up on Kefka.
It's understandable though, it isn't a situation where Smash isn't big enough for Cloud and Sephiroth, but Cloud and Sephiroth go hand in hand with Final Fantasy representation, you got some of the two biggest characters from the franchise from one of if not their most influential game.
The big question is, who's next for Final Fantasy? I've been thinking about Squall or Noctis (both games I haven't played, but would love to in the near-future)... and that's just about it. I've only played VII and partway into XIII.It's understandable though, it isn't a situation where Smash isn't big enough for Cloud and Sephiroth, but Cloud and Sephiroth go hand in hand with Final Fantasy representation, you got some of the two biggest characters from the franchise from one of if not their most influential game.
That being said, I'm sure they're done with the representation of FF7 now, unless Zack gets an Echo in Smash 7.
Oh, can you? I thought they were Gameboy titles.
My guess would be FFX. It'd one of the most popular FF games after FFVII (one notable poll even has it beat VII) and one of the most successful mainline games in the franchise, being beat by only VII, XIV, and XV in terms of sales. It definitely would be a strong second choice for Sakurai if he was looking for another game to represent.
Bowser's Inside Story is a DS title, and the 3DS can play any DS/DSi game, so yeah.
Yeah, XIV music is fantastic, plus it includes a lot of remixes of other FF music anyway. Don't really care about seeing WoL as a smash character (Y'shtola is kind of the crossover character for XIV), but I'd definitely love to get some of the music (Eden Shiva theme, Shadowbringers theme, and Titania theme are all particularly good). Unrelated, but jesus christ the new healer class they teased yesterday for the new expansion is the most anime **** ever.When it comes FF Zidane or Vivi would be really cool, but Warrior Of Light/Darkness from FFXIV Might be the most unique (and would also bring the best music don't @ me)
They could have a mechanic about switching different classes and playstyles (Tank, DPS, Healer), and each Archetype can utilize a bunch of weapons and abilities from classes within that playstyle.
Each of their alts could also be different Races and Genders.
No I wasn't. I didn't know Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story was a DS title.
Eh, hard to say. Could be Terra, could be Lightning in the worst timeline, could be the new character from XVI for shilling, who knows? I want Warrior of Light personally for both FF1 love and Dissidia representation, but I'm just baised.
Not gonna lie, I have not met a single Warrior of Light advocator that wasn't a fan of Dissidia, lol.
If I wanted Black Mage I'd just support Vivi.
Nah, semi-controllable Odin and Final Smash Zantetsuken would not be the worst timeline.
Malboro: You underestimate my power!
When Lightning is involved, it's always going to be the worst.
You will never convince me otherwise.
Major bonus points if they somehow get it in without ever having it move from it's iconic position:
To be fair to Chocobos, they do technically have their own game franchise, and they at least have proper limbs which makes them superior to something like DQ Slime. The actual worst timeline would be a Moogle. Honestly, I'd be pretty happy with any of the Final Fantasy protagonists. They're all pretty great in their own way, and FF is still the most prolific and well recognized JRPG franchise of all time so I wouldn't be upset to see even 2 or 3 more Final Fantasy characters in Smash
Dissidia 012 had Lightning and that was the best timeline. Certainly better than Dissidia NT and the timeline that is E-sports.When Lightning is involved, it's always going to be the worst.
I think it's going to be a looooong time before we get a 3rd FF character.
That's generally my classic FF pick.
They'd both make excellent ATs.
