The whole reason why this all spread around was that LaxChris just reported some false information, like he always does.
SonicMario, I believe you are correct that they must have gotten it from the About section of the Website. It also means that this leak is basically meaningless.
Yeah I got the leak from LaxChris. 90% of his stuff is garbage but this one caught my eye since it was a gaming company rather than an anonymous leaker on 4Chan or Reddit.
That's so cool to hear! :D Getting them retro games I bet is like really fun, especially playing them on their respective original systems!
Sure Thing...let me cast my magic spell...
I couldn't help but notice you had Tails and Silver as dream characters!
Yeah, I would love that too! Even though Silver is pretty unlikely, I'd would love to see him as he's my favorite character from the Sonic franchise and he'd have a pretty neat moveset considering he's got his whole psycho whatever powers (I can't spell the word, rip lol).I couldn't help but notice you had Tails and Silver as dream characters!
it would be cool if All 3 cameo characters had "Upgrades"
IF Tails becomes playable then i wouldn't be surprised if Silver did too.
Just wishful thinking
LMAO. I saw that I was legit about to come here and ask which one of y'all wrote that leak.
You know I was actually about to mention the idea of DLC bundles. Not just for Shadow and Tails, but other series too.
Calm yourself, my friend. We have to wait till November. Well unless out of nowhere we get a Direct later down this month. Doubt it's going to even happen though.
Doubt Silver will ever get in Smash. Plus I'd rather have Blaze in first. Though if he did get in one of his taunts would have to be 'ITS NO USE'. And his Final Smash would have to be him sending the fighters off into outer space.
Aye, it wasn't me that's for sure.
There actually is a scenario where Silver might get into Smash, that is if Nintendo somehow acquires SEGA or the Sonic of Hedgehog IP. Then the Sonic series would likely have a lot of characters in Smash.
yeah but hed be fair way down the list id imagine
Stop bringing in pointless Tails hate from Shadow fans. It's not good from either side of the coin.
Alright, I apologise, its just there behaviour is...childish, I've even tried ending the conversation and he keeps replying and it's getting annoying, yet I know if I block him he'll end up thinking its an achievement, any ideas how to resolve this on a decent end?
If they're still annoying you for hours upon hours or continuously trolls on any more of your posts even past today that you make afterward probably best to block him anyway. Don't care if they call that an accomplishment, there's a block function for a reason and it's to not be bothered by people who spam dislike of a simple "I want this character playable in a video game".
Get medieval on him. Relentlessly pick apart the worthlessness of the pathetic waste of energy known as his "life".
As someone who supports shadow just simply ignore the person. We really don’t need the tails and shadow fan base fighting one another even though we support different characters. Besides it would be a blessing if we get a unique tails and a chrom level echo shadow in the game.
I thought Sega Ages Sonic 2 was set for somewhere next year? (Probably early next year at least though. Can't imagine it takes that long to add all those bells and whistles they did for Sonic 1 to Sonic 2)
Just an assumption! Not Anything With Backing At All! Just A Theory!
See this "Unique Tails, Echo Shadow" Thing i see pop up every now and then. It makes me Cringe, it's a Sin, Especially if we are talking DLC! Echoes are bonus characters, Characters developed with Extra Time. Cause DLC doesn't have a Deadline like the base game, there is no excuse for Tails to get the whole package while Shadow gets the scraps.
I've said that the only thing that would make the MOST sense would be if they were both semi-clones, but nobody over on gamefaqs wanted to hear that. Doing it Fox, Wolf, and Falco style is the only way that really makes sense. Tails and Shadow both have parts of Sonic's moveset that would make more sense for the other character, so it would make sense to split the moveset and give new attributes to the characters individually. But like I said a lot of people don't think that's going to happen and for what its worth I don't think it will either.
I would prefer discussing this on a shadow tread but whatever. I for one would not mind a unique shadow or a semi clone shadow. Shadow have the potential of being unique just look at legacy xp shadow. I want shadow to rise and have abilities unique to him and same can go to tails. But let’s be honest here shadow is sadly going to be a echo. A echo that have his own specials kinda like chrom. The reason I say he will be a echo because that seems to be the realistic option of shadow getting into the game (if he is in base). I at this point just want him in the game regardless than to not have him in at all. However if he does become DLC then yes he should at least be unique since the developers will have the time to make tails and shadow unique.
I can understand if people don't think that the both of them can make it as Semi-clones, even if it makes sense. Personally i can belivee it, especially if we get DLC involved in the equation, we just have to see what happens.
Understandable. I can understand why people feel Shadow as an echo is the realistic option for base roster. I Personally think he'll get in as unique if he's in base, but most people don't share the same Opinion.
I get it, a character being an echo is a weird area where the character makes it. But loses much of their individuality, and can feel like a hollow victory. There are already a few fans here and there for current echoes that have mixed feelings about their character being an echo.
It's pretty clear that regarding Tails and Shadow: Shadow can be an echo, Tails cannot. Shadow shares a body type, and while yes they have different core personalities. Not sure that's quite as big of a deal when Daisy fans would tell you she's alot more spunky and/or athletic then Peach, or Dark Samus fought very differently from Samus in the Prime games. They could easily change some of Sonic's animation to reflect more Shadow's brooding or harsher nature while still keeping him an echo, and there are games Shadow played no different from Sonic at all including his debut and most recently Forces. Tails on the other hand where aside from flight played like Sonic in the classics, definitely does not share Sonic's body type and would have a signature ability completely ignored or at the very least only used in up+b and/or jumps. Some of Shadow's abilities could still be conceivably be used in an echo if they used a teleport like Mewtwo's and a different Final Smash. Some of us (me included) have thought about before how Tails could work if they had to as an echo what with applying Peach's float and/or adding Kirby's multiple jumps to be Tails' "flight". But after Sakurai's clarification on echoes, we know that isn't going to cut it.Sakurai said:
I actually 'spoke' to the guy on Twitter too. I tried to speak with him in a civilised manner. I even suggested the idea of Tails and Shadow being DLC, but he blocked me. He is very childish, let me tell you.
SonicMario
said it's not wise to bring all the Shadow hate to this page. I'm going to be real with you guys here and will say that there are a lot of extreme Shadow fans out there but I've met some nice ones too. I just wish there were more nice ones.When you put it like that, I guess it would be wrong to make Tails have a unique fighter, but Shadow's just an Echo of Sonic. Then again most Shadow fans just wanted him to be an Echo, to begin with so if they ever did complain that is being hypocritical.
I guess I didn't play as Shadow too much in Forces. But maybe you could at least detail it a little more? I still feel like any minor differences aren't going to mean much.
I don't think so. I think Isabelle was indeed made something more akin to Villager's Luigi. Similar moves in practice, but functionally pretty different. (For the exception of Pocket)
Yeah, the only possible one I could think of is Cream who can fly with her ears. And even then, Cream's fighting style often required her being a duo with her chao Cheese. Cream would have to be a hybrid of a hypothetical Tails' and Rosalina's style.
