YES!!
I like my emphasis there. But, yes, I'm not really in favor of Ness. This sprung up in my mind and I do see his chances are indeed at 50%.
Like flipping a coin, you're either gonna get heads or tails. Ness is either a yes or no.
Think most people will handle Sakurai's decision? I will.
Oh
my
god.
How did this thread make it to this page without anyoen commenting on it.
There's only a yes/no situation. If Sakurai was randomly choosing characters for the game, then yes, Ness would have a 50% chance. However, Sakurai is
not randomly choosing characters. He picks each one for a reason.
That is faaaaar different than 50%. His chances at this point are logically either 0% or 100% since Sakurai has already decided all the characters. Or, if you're still trying to predcit, it's probably closer to a 35-40% chance of Ness returning given all the evidence against him.
But it's not like flipping a coin. It's not "he's either in or not, thus 50% chance". Otherwise, Tails, Colonel (from MGS), Goomba, Like-like, Slippy, and Tangela all have a 50% chance to be in as well, which is absolutley ridiculous.
Don't insult Sakurai like that.
However, if you meant "The evidence for him being in is exactly equal to the evidence for him being removed" (which is wrong), then you could logically say "it seems like a 50% chance".
Also, the Japanese site uses the same ambigious wording as the English site so NO HELP THERE.

If Marth can bring Fire Emblem series to the states, why can't Lucas be a new and more cuter look to the Earthbound/Mother series?
If only Lucas being in was a sign of Mother 3 coming...
That, however, is extremely unlikely at this point it seems.
Lucas is definitley a nice addition but it'd be nice to see Ness in as well because he's a cool and (somewhat) different character.
