New Smash Bros for WiiU

[Deleted member]

I am curious how much Palutena and Medusa's fanbases will grow once Kid Icarus Uprising is finally released. Sakurai has spent more development on that game than he did on Brawl, so at the very least I expect it to be one of the biggest name titles for the console and for Nintendo to give it a massive push.

Also, the OVAs might also boost the popularity for those two characters.

Medusa seems to have a pretty decent fan base on here and GameFAQs now. I'm expecting her fan base to grow a lot come the OVAs and the games. Sadly, I'm not seeing the same as Palutena, although I wouldn't be surprised to see her revealed at E3 2012/13.

@asage94: Going to check out your move set.

"It won't happen" only applies if the actual character or idea is 100% impossible or goes against the entire game. Since neither of those apply, DHD is clearly possible. Unlikely as hell, I'll give it that much.

Have some teeth, man!

Also it's funny that Overlord is FUSSIN' with Sunny over something that he earlier praised me for saying, lol.

Not done yet, bro Just said I'm casting a vote for the (B) moves above

Can I just say more people know what a Goomba is than they know who DHD is.

DHD loves DHT. Listen to your hearrrt~

---, the updated list is in the BRoom.

Fair enough, but Duck Hunt Dog is more well known then Marth.

Goomba FTW bro! DHD FTF (For the Fail) ^^

 

[Shorts]

Maybe if Marth wasn't in Brawl/Melee, but now...no way.

 

[Sunnysunny]

Any argument in this place is pointless really. It has no effect on sakurais decision and its all partly based on bias and opinion.

 

[Arcadenik]

Good point. Although we can't forget Magnus just yet unfortunetly.

I didn't know he spent more time on it then Brawl. When did development begin?

Also out of curiousity, at this point who do you think is most likely out of the 3 possible KI reps?

Palutena, Medusa, Magnus. In that order.

Palutena first because she was already in Brawl, she's been in more games than Medusa and Magnus have, and she's perfect for sex appeal when SSB4 is announced, look at Zero Suit Samus! Oh, yeah, because she's also the second protagonist of the series...

Medusa second because she's the main antagonist of the series, she's been in more games than Magnus, and she's just as well-known as Palutena is and you cannot say the same for Magnus. But the only reason she is more requested than Palutena is because she is a twofer token minority (a female AND a villain). Talk about faux support... can't we support characters based on their own merits rather than what demographic groups they belong to?

I fully agree with you. But as tension rises, arguments in here will rise.

The reason why people are initially supporting Medusa more is because she is a "twofer" (villain and a female), and also due Vyers bullying everyone who preferred Palutena.

Since one of the OVAs centrally focuses on Palutena, I am figuring they will become about equal in popularity, with a slight edge towards Palutena.

Still, as to who I feel is more likely, I will wait until Kid Icarus Uprising is released before I can make a proper assessment about that.

 

[OmegaXXII]

When in doubt throw the word "biased" about.

You really can't back up why he should be in so you start calling opinions biased? Everything in this thread is an oppinion. Everything. Thinking hes deserving in is an opinion. In that case..

This whole arguement is the definition of biased. You guys have been forcing the idea of DHD threw out the duration of this entiiiiiire thread. Just admit it. It won't happen. Its comparable to the fanboys who want cloud strife in.

NO!, the fact thatr YOU disagree and throw out arguments that "he isn't interesting", "is boring" isn't really a solid argument to go by, you are clearly against the idea and now you are simply dismissing it because people are showing support? that really made me laugh.

 

[Metal Overlord]

Also it's funny that Overlord is FUSSIN' with Sunny over something that he earlier praised me for saying, lol.

You mean the "Oasis Wins! FATARITY! thing I posted earlier? I praised for you something different, dude.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Why did you praisre him? it seemed that you agreed with him against DHD.

 

[Shorts]

WHAT? Omega is getting defensive AND I'M NOT CAUSING IT!?

 

[Aurane]

NO!, the fact thatr YOU disagree and throw out arguments that "he isn't interesting", "is boring" isn't really a solid argument to go by, you are clearly against the idea and now you are simply dismissing it because people are showing support? that really made me laugh.

I agree with Sunny this time. Are we the creator or SSB? Naw, and our opinion really doesn't matter. If Sakurai entered here, then maybe. But he isn't, so I just fantisize for now.

 

[Oasis_S]

A Twofer?

Medusa is JUST MORE INTERESTING

 

[---]

Palutena, Medusa, Magnus. In that order.

But the only reason she is more requested than Palutena is because she is a twofer token minority (a female AND a villain). Talk about faux support... can't we support characters based on their own merits rather than what demographic groups they belong to?

Since this is almost the exact same arguement I gave during the KI debates, I totally agree with this for now until Uprising.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Yes, but the difference is that you were referring to something that could easily be seen as impossible(...or you weren't, dunno). DHD is far from it. I expect some reference IF NOT MORE in SSB4. He's definitely iconic all around the world. Well, to older gamers who started with the NES.

Not every character can say that.

Also, there were two games that you could play as R.O.B. on the NES, and he was in Mario Kart DS. So he does have more game appearances than DHD. Just clarifying that.

Moving on, though.

After his extreme defense of Slime that he has exhibited, I am not surprised to see that be a reason. But I haven't seen him bully a Palutena supporter yet.

 

[Arcadenik]

Maybe if Marth wasn't in Brawl/Melee, but now...no way.

Maybe in the Internet... but out there in the real world, a lot of people know the dog from Duck Hunt than they do about some blue-haired tomboy from an obscure strategy game.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Well, if you don't like a character that's fine, just DON'T dismiss him because you arent Sakurai, and for the record I NEVER said DHD is guaranteed, you guys act like i made him a shoe-in, i am clearly supporting him and you guys just seem to dismiss him without probable cause, admit it, he has a chance, no matter how slim it may seem.

 

[Sunnysunny]

Haha wow, I actually got you to pop?

Ya know why I throw those out? Because its my opinion. Your whole argument is an opinion. You claim you know what japan wants. You claim you think hes on sakurais mind.

We know nothing about that stuff so we don't bring it up.

Absolutely nothing. I'm not gonna claim to have any influence on what sakurai wants, or what japan wants, and you shouldn't either.

Just except that every thing we say in this thread is bias and opinion, because at the end of the day it really comes down to whether we think they are deserving, popular or interesting. You keep saying "you don't know what sakurai thinks" but neither do you dude.

Hmm, I would like to see his reasons for Medusa and if they are actually reasonable.

Also, no one likes a bully.

 

[Steam]

why is there a backroom for this thread.

and why is it a private closed group.

and why did no one let meh in D:

When posting in a Slime/Layton/Tingle thread (ones he defends the most adamantly), be aware that there's always that chance he'll put up a fight against you. Which is never a pretty thing.

You got that wrong. We couldn't play as R.O.B. in Gyromite and Stack-Up. R.O.B. was used as a controller to play Gyromite and Stack-Up and the main character in those two games was Professor Hector. The only times we ever get to play as R.O.B. are Mario Kart DS and Brawl.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Ask SSBFAN, i am no longer in charge of the BRoom.

 

[Aurane]

Just saying...

 

[Opelucid]

To be honest I prefer Palutena over Medusa maybe will get both of them?

 

[Shorts]

Maybe in the Internet... but out there in the real world, a lot of people know the dog from Duck Hunt than they do about some blue-haired tomboy from an obscure strategy game.

I couldn't disagree more.

The people who know DHD/remember him are old gamers, who just don't know Marth out of simple ignorance. Kids/teens knowing DHD is out of the ordinary. The adult GAMERS know both, but I'm willing to bet the gamer population as a whole recognizes Marth more than they do DHD. I don't think it's even a competition.

Melee and Brawl have reached more gamers than Duck Hunt has. The reason I say this, is because a lot of DHD's fanbase no longer consider themselves gamers. They're adults. MY MOM played Duck Hunt, now my sixteen cousins who all play videogames, have no idea who he is, but they know Marth. From Brawl/Melee.

What I find absolutely disgusting are Krystal fans who think Wolf should be cut for Krystal, and more who act like Wolf is a cloney clone.

I agree. Cut Falco.

I think you just find Krystal fans disgusting. That's what I think.

Vegeta Bebi is right in this topic (though his language is extreme at times).

Well at least her fanbase will continue to evaporate the longer she goes without having made any new game appearances. There is also the matter how Palutena and Medusa are probably going to vacuum up a lot of her support.

Ah. To be fair, I did ask for clarification some time earlier when somebody mentioned that(different forum), but they never gave it. Thanks.

But he still was part of the game overall. That, and you know, he's the reason the NES's sold, soooo... he deserves quite a lot of credit.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Agreed with that

 

[Aurane]

Hey guys. You get the message I sent here this morning?

When posting in a Slime/Layton/Tingle thread (ones he defends the most adamantly), be aware that there's always that chance he'll put up a fight against you. Which is never a pretty thing.

After the Waluigi debate, what happened to my info thread (now a Sakurai hate thread), and the 2 page IGN poll flamming, I think I can handle it (not the Slime/Layton/Tingle stuff though).

Besides, Gamefaqs is hopeless anyway, so I could care less at what happens.

 

[Deleted member]

The backroom is for people who have shown to frequently contribute positively to the forum and put out logical argument that has shown intelligence. The reason why I have not let you in is because I haven't exactly been impressed with your contribution.

 

[Opelucid]

Hey guys. You get the message I sent here this morning?

Nope mind posting it again? Oh yeah I officially support Phoenix Wright now

 

[Aurane]

Nope mind posting it again?

Directly from Serebii.Net:
Some news spreading round is regarding some comments on Junichi Masuda's Twitter Account. When asked about making remakes of the GBA games Ruby & Sapphire, he responded by saying that the original games were important to him and thanked the user for his input, not that he'll "consider" it as spreading around the internet. While this isn't an indicator of Ruby & Sapphire remakes actually coming out, anything is possible. We'll bring more news about upcoming games as and when they come so keep checking back

I think we might wanna reconsider PKMN Trainers now...

Unlike you, I never said "he's interesting" or "I love him", i'm just letting you know that you shouldn't rule out a character just because you don't like him and don't find it appealing is all, Sakurai is clearly the ultimate figure, that I agree with so in a way it also makes your opinion look bad because neither of us are correct just Sakurai himself. yet you act like you know what he thinks by dismissing him. :?
