New Character: Stafy (Densetsu no Stafy series)

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

Lolz, wow nice music videos. Anyway, I don't know about him being in SSBB...he's just a star...

An insanely popular star who both talks the talk and walks the walk. If youve ever played his games you know that he can easily fit into Brawl. If a character doesn't look like they can fight, he/she will be a kickass character

and kirby is just a ball with feet and hands, but that didn't stop him from appearing, did it?

 

[Black/Light]

Legend of Stafy was developed by TOSE, who also does the Game and Watch Gallery games. When Sakurai was part of Nintendo, he worked for HAL. So no, he didn't create Stafy. Did you confuse him maybe with Kirby?

Oh, I may have gotten them mixed up (^_^).

But I still say he stands a pretty good chance.

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

brave words for someone with the name "super smash master" =P

**** man,you just put him in his place.XD

But anyway,i don't really know that much about Staffy,but he seems like an intresting character,even if he's just a star,he's still awsome.=)

 

[rock_in_reo]

he reminds me of Kirby...

and he's cool. and original.

i vote positive

I never said Stafy was unlikely anyways. I was just pointing out that, instead of opting for such characters in Melee, they went for the more human-like and "serious" ones, because they knew most of the people who were waiting to play that game were older than 10 (not to sound mean or anything)

Brawl's hype is stemming almost entirely from this same demographic, 16-30 year old males. So of course they're going to throw in people like SNAKE, ZERO SUIT SAMUS, and PIT. It makes for a great game all around for everybody, sure, but who's going to appreciate it more? A kid who just found out who Snake was, or the guy who played Metal Gear Solid religiously when he was in high school 8 years ago?

If melee was aiming for an older audience why was it rated G 8+

stafy reminds me of geno but if kirby sucked up stafy he whould be a pink star?

Perhaps he would wear a Stafy-shaped hat, just like when he copies Pikachu, Pichu, and Yoshi.

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

If melee was aiming for an older audience why was it rated G 8+

apparantly, Australia has less strict critics, where Melee was rated T(13+) in the US. I think they'll try for the E10 rating this time

 

[GenG]

Melee was rated +11 in Europe. Fire Emblem PoR was rated +7. Both Pikmin were rated +3...

Here is when Stafy and Wario work with each other in Legend of Stafy 3.

Here are some boss battles in Legend of Stafy 2.

And here are some boss battles in Legend of Stafy 3.

Ooo... Interesting, I ish backing this now :D.

 

[Nietendodude]

I think he would be interesting for the game.

I still support stafy

I was searching for this thread for a while... If there's gonna some more Japanese only characters, I'm hoping Stafy will be atleast one of them. He's a very intressting character, and I find him really fitting into Smash Bros.

 

[parrothead]

I found some Stafy sprites here.

 

[Lord_Deathborne]

Yeah as far as Japan-only characters, I think Sakurai will include those that would most easily translate to the rest of the world (i.e. Fire Emblem), and Stafy defineitely fits the bill - it would definitely click with the Kirby crowd... Though it's likey he'll get a name change of some sort for localization purposes.

 

[parrothead]

If any of you are trying to picture Stafy's Spinning Star move, then click here and click the word "Spin" to watch him do it in action. You can also rapidly click it to watch him become dizzy. And that is what will happen to Stafy in SSBB if you would rapidly use his Spinning Star move.

 

[parrothead]

*BUMP*

If Stafy doesn't enter another Legend of Stafy title nor SSBB (either as a playable character or trophy), he'll probably become Mr. Lonely...

...while his eyes will shed tears.

 

[Suska]

I wonder... If Stafy is in the game, what would Kirby look like if he sucked him up O.o?

 

[th0rn]

like stafy

 

[Numa Dude]

I Support Stafy And Twink!

According to the Japanese Wikipedia article for the Legend of Stafy series, a manga version of the series was officially produced by Nintendo and Shogakukan, and it looks very risible in my opinion.

 

[Devastlian]

Ya know...in that article about how SSBB came to be that's on the website, Mr. Sakurai said that he couldn't announce the name of the team. After reading the interview with TOSE (Starfy's co-creators) that's linked to on TOSE's wiki page, they talk about how they prefer to anonymously outsource games to publishers. Perhaps The Studio is a part of TOSE which could mean a decent chance for this character to appear in the game. Just thought it was a possibility.

That's pretty interesting. I appreciate you for saying that.

Right now, I noticed that Densetsu No Stafy 3 (Legend of Stafy 3) is #2 in the Top Ten Mario-related Cameos.

 

[parrothead]

Here are four different looks of Stafy:

Also, here are some samples of the first two vocal Stafy themes:

Sung by BECKY for Legend of Stafy 1

AND

Sung by Kazuki Saya for Legend of Stafy 2

They even made some karaoke versions (which they are instrumental) and some original songs for Stafy, like BOYFRIEND'S ROOKIE (sung by BECKY) and ぼくはスタフィー (translated as "I am Stafy"; sung by Kazuki Saya).

Check this out.

After you check that one above out, check this one out.

 

[Lord_Deathborne]

For being so likely a choice, I'm surprised Stafy doesn't get more attention on SmashBoards. Even over at the infamous Nsiders Forums he gets pretty frequent mention. Oh well...

 

[Spiderkid]

Stafy would would be awesome. As for popularity outside of Japan, don't forget Marth and Roy's status before Melee.

[Brawlmatt202]

Stafy is second only to King Dedede on my Top Ten most wanted characters! I REALLY want to see him in!

 

[M]

Stafy is probably one of the best suggestions for Brawl so far, I would be surprised if he doesn't make Brawl. Oh, and I'm maining him in advance, he is my no. 1 pick for Brawl!!

Me, too, next to my usuals, and probably Wario...

 

[D3monicWolv3s]

I like the game (played it at my friends house). And hope to see him in brawl.
I do have a question, is stafy really popular in Japan?

I believe so. Otherwise he wouldn't of become a series.

Also, I recall a contest in which players could design a costume for Stafy or Stapy, andit will end up in the 4th game.

 

[Joka]

Cool! The Legend of Stafy was another favorite series of mine!

(Gotta wonder how Kirby will look as Stafy Kirby)

 

[Joka]

OH! One thing!

Stafy has been affiliated with the Mario series THREE times!
1. Wario was in the third game
2. A poster of Stafy (with the spelling of "Stafy") was in Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga in the Yoshi Theatre.
3. He appeared as an enemy in Super Princess Peach.

THREE reasons Stafy should be in Brawl!
