Here's something I just now realized but I already knew but had forgotten (got all that)...

Jeff was one of the multi-requested characters from Sakurai's poll. Paula and Poo were also on there somewhere. I wonder, knowing the popularity of these Earthbound characters or whatever, if that helps Ness's return.

Honestly, I have no idea, but it's something to think about.
Yeah, Paula, Jeff, and Poo were on the list, but so were Ninten, Claus, and Kumatora.

In the past week, I've been playing Ness A LOT in Melee. It is too the extent now that I'm considering making him my main for the last 3 months that I will spend playing Melee. Therefore, he better return for Brawl. The only pic that makes me think that Lucas is a replacement for the Ness is the one where he is holding out his hand in the air. It just reminds me of Ness' f-air. Who knows? I'm really want to try out Lucas, but Ness has really grown on me. Bottom line: Ness should return.

The thing is, Lucas is the ONLY newcomer whose Special moves hasn't been revealed on the dojo yet. This is one MASSIVE mindgame Sakurai is pulling on us Ness fans.

If Lucas's special moves are revealed to be COMPLETELY DIFFERENT then Ness's, then Ness chances of returning becomes VERY HIGH. However, the reverse also holds true. If Lucas's special moves are revealed to be the same or very similar to Ness's(Though rope snake gives me hope), then...

This all becomes one big aggravating waiting game. We all have to wait until Lucas's special moves are revealed or until Ness's veteran profile is revealed.

I still cannot comprehend why anyone was foolish enough to believe ZSS was to be a replacement for Sheik. I mean, goodness.

he is comparing Lucas to ZSS becouse ZSS specials where revealedlike months after ZSS confirmation in the Dojo, meaning that that can probably happen to Lucas too.
Its not fair >_<, Zelda, ICs and Lucas are the only characters that I actually want to have information about (Zelda, ICs and Ness where my mains in Melee), and those are the only ones to not have any information. Sucks for me.

Ahh, I thought the poster was referring to those months before ZSS' moves were revealed, in which there was a lot of (idiotic and ridiculous) speculation that Zero Suit Samus was going to replace Sheik. God, were those some annoying times. Can you believe there were people claiming that Wario, of all people, was to be a G&W replacement?

Honestly, I wish people wouldnt blow off Ness.


Seeing Lucas's moves from pictures, we see that Lucas is NOTHING like Ness. (Obviously.)

Why am I the only one to think Ness could get some moveset changes here and there? You know. B is PK Fire again, PK Flash can be -> but changed ALOT in some way, not chargeable and horrid, Up+B fixage (its fine as it is though. Perhaps more range and quicker?) And keep the shield.

Or if someone like claus is revealed or some deconfirmation of ness or something along the lines of that..Sakurai is still pulling one massive mind-game that is aggravating me :mad:.
Either way i cant wait to see ness or claus , The ness picture looks nice >_> It's nice because hopefully the two protaginist's of mother will be able to fight against each other ^_^!

PK Flash was a great edgeguard!

PK Magnet is what needs to go. Ugh, the lag! The lag!

Why make Ness bald unless he has a gigantic bald spot under that hat?

I dressed up as Ness for Halloween; sort of raised awareness of his character. :p

I was hoping that on the same day, they're reveal that Ness returns, but I guess that didn't happen.

But it was HORRID.

So much startup time.

For gods sake, just make it a chargeable (storable) B for gods sakes. If PK Fire is going to be -> B, at least make it longer range and bigger. And perhaps last longer. Cause ->'s arent dimpy *** inch attacks. Their actually cool >_>

I'm afraid I've lost hope. Looks like Ness has been replaced. Maybe Ness can still get in with a new moveset. Though I doubt it...

I thought this would happen as soon as Lucas was confirmed. Both he and Ness are entirely to similar to be differentiated. Sure one may argue Luigi , but tell me Is Ness as important as he is?

I love how Sakurai remixed Ness's moves on Lucas.
