Would we want it to be an English voice like Ike's or a Japanese voice like Marth/Roy?

 

[CardiganBoy]

She sounds like a 30 year old smoker telling me to 'prepare myself'. When a woman with that kind of voice and a sword tells me to prepare myself, I run away screaming like a little girl.

Also it would be cool if her sword trails where green because yeah!

Why not a European voice if possible?

 

[Spire]

Guys...

What about a full Ganon? Replace Ganondorf's Final Smash with a more traditional Ganon—a full character—that can be selected via "R" like Giga Bowser. He could wield the Trident, summon flaming keese, shoot his lightning sphere, etc, etc.

Ganon is a more recurring Legend of Zelda villain than Ganondorf, having appeared as a boss in 8 titles, versus Ganondorf's 3.

I think english would fit her, because the game she appeared was the first Fire Emblem released in America, not like Roy, or Marth at the time of brawl.

Well, one of the suggestions (that is pretty well liked in the polls) is replace Ganon with a different character skin, then make a true to form Ganon from scratch.

Isn't English a European dialect? From a little country known as England?

Sorry, I meant German.

English with a japanese accent, perhaps?

Hold on, what do you mean by "can be selected via "R" like Giga Bowser"? Is this a thing in Project M that I don't know about??

I am aware of the Ganondorf / Black Shadow split, which is fantastic and I wholeheartedly support it—but Ganon.

Even if we leant Ganondorf's moveset to Black Shadow, I don't think Ganondorf would get axed in favor of his true form, Ganon. Ganondorf would probably receive a new moveset based on both his and Ganon's capabilities from across the series. I just feel the big pig deserves the limelight. No complaints, the Ganondorf / Black Shadow split is a genius win-win as we'd get two for the price of one.

Not to be a Zelda miser, but I'd love to see Ganondorf get a new moveset, a full Ganon transformation, and Skull Kid + Majora's Mask. Oh well!

 

[Ginge]

It's kinda fun starting as Giga Bowser, but they dropped his usefulness a lot, even as a Final Smash. I'd wager Giga is not competition legal, though

And Vaati, don't forget him

 

[Spire]

Vaati appears as neither a trophy or sticker, so he's not viable. I don't know where Ganon stands. He appears in his Twilight Princess form as both a FS and a trophy, so the property exists in Brawl—but I don't know if that includes all of his appearances throughout the series (particularly those preceding TP). I know the PMBR are not as strict with Alt Costumes as they are new characters, so if Ganon were adapted into a new character, could the Alt Costume rule be applied and he reverse-engineered to appear as his classic appearance, which, to reiterate, is not currently represented in Brawl?

I know about Vaati not being eligible, I was joking about the whole 'fill them all with Zelda' thing XD

Ganon is Ganon no matter how he appears, IMO, since it's still the same character.

 

[Spire]

Vaati's lack of appearance is unfortunate, because he'd be a top contender for cloning no doubt. At least we have Skull Kid. We gotta get that train screaming down the tracks—Skull Kid has GOT to have a chance.

 

[Jade_Rock55]

Issac is winning by a lot!

Issac for 3.5 or 4.0 or something.

please note that this poll doesn`t affect the next clone character in any way shape or form.

 

[Jade_Rock55]

I know it is just that I did not expect someone to be winning by that much

 

[Ginge]

Isaac is pretty unanimously liked, the series isn't represented by a character so there's no over-saturation complaints like Pokémon, and would be a nice addition to the roster. Sometimes not having any NEGATIVES to your character is better than having a lot of positives.

Not to mention the fan support for wanting him to have already been a playable character in an official Smash Bros game.

 

[Starcutter]

do they know how to add a new series icon?

I think the only people who ever downvoted him did so because they didn't think making him a clone would do him justice... which isn't a good reason since PMBR are badasses. Just look at Mewtwo.

That actually wouldn't surprise me.

 

[andalsoandy]

Too hard to animate

Really? It seems he'd almost be able to take most of his animations from Kirby. I haven't played any of the Starfy games (I mentioned him because I was browsing SSBB's trophies,) but does he have any particularly difficult things about him to incorporate in his character besides animating his body?

I love this idea to death. I've always wanted a Pig Ganon in Brawl and continually searched the vault for one to put over Bowser.

 

[Yeerk]

Well, with Lyn's assist trophy, we have "Prepare yourself"

You mean "I'll handle this"?

 

[Ginge]

..... I hate you. It's so frustrating making the Assist Trophy you want show up... Even in training mode.

EDIT: Yes, it appears it is "I'll handle this". Sorry for the mistake.

EDIT 2: Actually, it is one of the two chosen at Random. So we get a free extra audio file

 

[Shin F.]

..... I hate you. It's so frustrating making the Assist Trophy you want show up... Even in training mode.

Couldn't you have just used the Sound Test?

 

[Game&Watcher]

Actually, she says either of the two randomly.

 

[Ginge]

Couldn't you have just used the Sound Test?

Honestly forgot that was a thing.... -.-;;


Assist Trophy 2: 37- 42
"Prepare yourself"
"I'll handle this"
grunt
sigh
"Taste my blade"
thrusting grunt.

 

[shinhed-echi]

I like how my game sort of detects which are my favorite ATs because most of the time I get Little Mac and Saki. :D Isaac also shows up a lot too, which is awesome.

My game trolls me by constantly releasing Tingle.

Isaac
Sami
Masked Man
Toad
Pokemon Trainer

Another character idea I'll throw out: Zelda, from a hypothetical game where she's the protagonist. Ideally from Clockwork Empire, which is where I got the idea.

Animations could possibly be borrowed from Link and Zelda. Not sure what the moveset would be like; the idea only works if someone is inspired to come up with a really good one.

 

[Ginge]

The game trolls me by giving me Resetti. Then saying "Sorry, have a Shadow next". Only to give me Resetti again....

The problem with this is we already have Zelda as a character, and an official character with Magic+Swords would be more likely to be chosen. Also, this hypothetical Zelda heroine doesn't exist in Brawl as a sticker or trophy, so I believe she's disqualified to begin with.

but zelda does have her own game... it's just really bad.

 

[CardiganBoy]

do they know how to add a new series icon?

I think it's similar to character's portraits, also note that the Castlevania Stage has a the Vampire Killer Whip as the series icon in the stage selection screen, so franchises icons won't be a problem.

Well, Zelda's still Zelda, but I seriously doubt PMBR want to add what amounts to a fan fiction to PM. They want Project M to be as much like an official Smash game as possible.

 

[CardiganBoy]

Also Isaac would need a stage, right?
Do you have any idea, guys?
