Instead of Shadow why not Silver

It would be impossible for the EBA to be in Brawl because for one thing, they don't even attack. They don't have attacks. And don't say they could sing to cause damage, the game is about their songs helping people. Wtf?

Tell me how they are going to fight in Brawl, plus it's a team of 3 different people, and that'd be a little much. We already have a double, but a triple?
I hate to go so off topic, but I have to step in and defend my boys. First of all, don't even try and pull out that "they can't fight argument" Zelda can't fight. Sheik can't fight. Mr. Game & Watch can't fight. Dr. Mario can't fight. Fox can't fight. Falco can't fight. Captain Falcon can't fight. Do you see where I'm going with this? If you really need more than that, how hard is it to imagine that they could use dance moves as attacks. Power sliding for a dash attack, Air Guitar as dtilt, etc it's not hard. Second, I never said it was necesary that there be a three-man team. It could just as easily be one of the Agents, with the others possibly showing up for special attacks.


Sorry about that. Had to get that off my chest. Anyhow:

Never on nintendo console + unpopular + knock-off character + limited 3rd party space = phailure for Silver.

Sc, you're being very limited here.

Captain Falcon: Obviously Falcon has attacks because he was a bounty hunter as well as a racer.

Fox: He did not just 'Drive a space ship'. He was part of a team of mercenaries for crying out loud, of course he had attacks.

Ice Climbers: They have hammers. They can use hammers as weapons, correct?

Game and Watch: Okay, you've got me here, but his moves are nearly ALL referenced from things he did in his games.

Dr Mario: Oh, don't even give me that; He's just Mario as a doctor, so it would make sense that he would just have attacks Mario would have, with pills to shoot. there's nothing weird about hat at all, besides the fact that he can cause pills to materialize in his palms.

And on the other side, we have the EBA, and they don't have anything they could reference attacks to, really. They sing. Okay, there's only a couple thigs you can do with that.

The only thing I can see you talking about would be Jigglypuff, because she only has a couple of moves ref'd from the Pokemon series.

Edited for Ht's post:

Zelda can fight, she has magic. What else would she use magic for? Plus they pretty much had to put her in the game, she's such a main figure in The Legend of ZELDA.

Shiek, maybe. But alot of the others you posted, like Fox, Falco, Captain Falcon, and Dr. Mario can. Fox was a mercenary, Falco was also. They obviously had some kind of fighting going down. Captain Falcon was a bounty hunter, so we know he had some fighting going down. I already talked about Dr Mario above^

I can see your point of their attacks, but all of the other characters has fighting parts, so their roles made sense. Atleast partly =P

Instead of either Shadow or Sliver, why not leave these bull **** characters alone?
Sonic is the only character from the Sonic franchise who is worthy for Brawl. If there would be a second character I'd most likely be Tails.

And even thinking of the idea of Tails being in Brawl chills me to death...

Also, limited 3rd party space counts. Is Silver more worthy than Megaman for example?
Heck he didn't even freaking appeared on a Nintendo console... ;>_>

All you people who are saying "No Silver,just Sonic" well why should Sonic have the right to be in? Because they made Sonic Wild Fire for the Wii? Or is it because they remade SA and SA2 on the Gamecube? Or is because he is fast and cooler than the other side of your pillow (dont ask..)?

EDIT:And give me that crap about him being voted on the most for third party charcter.

2nd EDIT: And yes, I know Silver is only in the XB360 and PS3 "Sonic the Hegehog" games. But hey its a good ide, Isnt it?

Becaaaause, Sonic and Mario are the 2 most regonisable video game characters ever. Sonic didn't only appeared on the GC or the Wii, he's been around way longer. There are lots of Sonic games who only appeared on a Nintendo system, think of GBA and DS titles.

And, Sonic is the main character from the Sonic franchise. Makes sence eh?
He centrainly wouldn't look out of the place without Silver. He'd make a good 3rd party character, Silver wouldn't.

Silver doesn't has this "history" with Nintendo. Heck he didn't even ****ing appeared on any Nintendo system as said before. He'd also have a good chance of being too similair to Mewtwo, and he's just "that other colored hedgehog"... So what makes him special?

From Wikipedia
Sonic Adventure 2 (ソニックアドベンチャー2) is a video game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, developed by Sonic Team for the Sega Dreamcast, and later ported as an update to the Nintendo Gamecube.
Taken from Wikipedia. =p its pretty much just a port though.

Its at your local Wal-mart or other store.

They don't just sing. They dance. Take a good look at some of those moves of theirs. They've got plenty of punches, kicks, and other assorted moves that would serverly hurt if you happened to get in the way. Also, perhaps we should move this into the Ouendan/EBA thread? I'm pretty sure what we're doing here is considered spamming.

And, just to keep this somewhere near the topic at hand:
Never on nintendo console + unpopular + knock-off character + limited 3rd party space = phailure for Silver.

Visiting from above.
Well, that's purely opinionated, I thought you had a genuine reason, like M2's physics are better, or something along those lines.
The fact that Silver (get it, because he IS silver! ho ho ho) really, really sucks IS a genuine reason.

Silver I hope and know will definitely not be in.
1. Mewtwo he would be like...Mewtwo...ewwwwwww
2.As amny posters have mentioned, he would be a silver sonic
3.white would probably end up being an alternate costume for sonic. Very similar
4. I dont like the idea
5. No apearance on a nintendo system. If anyone can opose the comments with relevent and true information, I shall +rep them. I'm sure it can't be done.

two words.... F**K NO!!... Silver defenatly dosn't stand a chance. I would give reasons, but all the good ones have already been said.

the only cool Sonic characters are.... well, Sonic. if anyone from said franchise gets into Brawl, it better be Sonic, and only Sonic.

I just read on wikipedia that Silver doesn't even have super speed nor can he use the Spin Dash. After I took a glance at that, I decided that I do not want to see him in Brawl.

Yeah Knome, at www.wikipedia.org under Silver's abilties, he has only telepathic attibutes & it clearly says he can't use the Spin Dash (favorite Sonic move) nor does he have super speed (that just blows). Da proof is in da pudding bro.

Closest thing to an official thread.



Looks like he's TECHNICALLY on a Nintendo console now. Still don't want him in, though.

Also... Yay! Blaze is back!

That's Sonic Rivals for the PSP, kaid...

I haven't played as Silver yet, but frankly, he's no clone anyway. Shadow was a clone, but Silver, regardless of being a hedgehog, is an actual original character.

Plus, if he can't use the Spindash, then how the heck can he be a clone of Sonic? Point in case.

I do agree that they need to stop adding a new character for -nearly- every new Sonic game that comes out.

BTW, Knuckles, Tails, Amy, and Eggman all appear in Sonic And The Secret Rings. But they're cameos for the most part. Well, in a sense.

*mouth drops* I have a feeling that Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 may make a Wii appearence yet. In addition, this means that Silver now has an official Nintendo appearence(later on, anyway), so he may appear in SSB4. Thanks for this information.

Silver is a dumb character to add. I swear you guys are going to start a "Official Thread for Will Smith in Brawl"

Silver would be awesome to play in Brawl. His controls were the most fun out of any sonic character by far. The hovering and crazy telepathy was sassy.
