New Smash Bros for WiiU

[Hoots]

I'd say Waluigi, but at least he has a chance. Maybe Shulk? I don't know the trend usually happens about the first year after the reveal trailer and character speculation gets underway.

No way. Waluigi supporters will get eaten alive so quickly by everyone that they won't be able to spread their irrationality. But then again, is Waluigi REALLY that popular? I can't imagine that a character who was invented so Wario could play doubles tennis could really be that exciting to anyone. Also, what do people say for his moveset? Tennis rackets and bullet bills? Trololo.

It's because when people get behind a character, it's because they are cool. A puppet that shoots lazer beams is pretty goddamn cool to a lot of people. A cloud wearing pink striped pants who literally whines about everything is not going to get many fans. Granted, I liked both of them and used both on my team. However, it's not hard to see the reasoning. I mean look at all of the original SNES games. I loved Diddy Kong as a kid and all he was was a monkey in a hat who cartwheeled around and jumped on crocodiles. There really isn't ANYTHING to that but it's ****ing AWESOME. I guess my point is, character depth does not factor into popularity at all. Take Samus, or Link, or Mario for instance.

That's all fine; for an action game.

In an RPG, character development is very important. Geno lacks this. His thing is "possess a doll to complete a mission sent to him. Complete mission. Goes back from whence he came".

This is why I have a problem with Geno being so heavily requested for Smash (aside from the fact that he's a minor Mario character owned by Square and that he started as a fad), people think he's so great just because of his concept. Just because he's "cool". Just because of what he can do, people feel he should be playable in Smash, regardless of his lack of importance to Mario, Nintendo, or Square-Enix.

I would LOVE to have Shake King from Wario Land: Shake It! as a playable character because of what he can do. And to be honest, the prospect of playing as a large viking pirate that can cause fireballs to rain from the sky, fly and shoot lasers, ram into people shrowded in dark energy, cause earthquakes just by punching the ground, grab and shake people into submission appeals to me. Because I feel he's a frigging ******.
But do I honestly believe he has a shot in Smash? No. And neither should the Geno fans.
Being "cool" isn't enough.

 

[Oasis_S]

Y'KNOW, I'm curious why the Masked Man seems to be the most requested Mother character? Is it "Just cause" as well as his ridiculous RAD FACTOR. I guess maybe people just don't see how Porky could be implemented. Those fools. >:I


And how can Waluigi be both the new Waluigi and the new Geno.

Masked Man's fanbase was Poo/Geno lite.

Throw Ashley in there too,

 

[Oasis_S]

Was it really? I guess I only got caught up in it at the tail end of the HYPE.


Ashley supporters were just a bunch of pedos, silly.

You are right that many people think Waluigi is a joke anyways. The only reason I say he has a chance is solely because he was an AT which means that there is a possibility he was considered at a point. None the less after the recent slew of Mario games I think it will be more difficult to choose Waluigi over Toad or Bowser Jr.

QFT. I never got it. And they continually spammed that horrible song... My ears still bleed.

I never understood the Ashley hype. Maybe I should push for Jimmy T and make him the next cult character?

 

[yani]

I really don't think we'll be seeing another Wario rep.

 

[ChronoBound]

Don't forget Paper Mario.

Or if you are Sakurai or Golden, Dr. Mario.

 

[Oasis_S]

You'll just make the Mona support bigger. Breasts, y'know.

 

[ChronoBound]

Jimmy T would be cool, all of his moves would be dance moves.

9-Volt would also be interesting if all of his moves references retro Nintendo titles.

 

[Starphoenix]

Don't forget Paper Mario.

Or if you are Sakurai or Golden, Dr. Mario.

True, but I still kind of think the other Mario characters trump them out at this point in time. Dr. Mario could still come back, but he does not have near the same support as Mewtwo or Roy has. That is the difference between those two and Dr. Mario and Pichu.

 

[Aurane]

Out of all the Wario reps, I think Kat and Ana should be the perfered choice. Ice climbers meet rivals TvT

Ashley? Pft... Veruka Salt 4 Sm4sh before dat B****.

 

[Oasis_S]

Anyone remember the thread for that one Advanced Wars character? What was it, Sami? The title was something like "Big breasted, tiny tank top wearing, gun-toting redhead support thread."

I still prefer Infantry.

 

[ChronoBound]

I often think that the reason why many females characters are only supported simply on the grounds due to their fans being sexually attracted to them.

Which is why I think Palutena and Medusa are going to have huge fanbases.

Very faintly I recall that thread, but I was more active at Gamefaqs and their obsession with Rawk Hawk. My preference is for Will, but considering Japan did not even get Advance Wars: Days of Ruin that is highly unlikely to ever happen. Andy is obviously the character people will want, but I have never been too big a fan of him as a character. Even though Snake is third party he just fits the soldier role well enough that an Famicom Wars character is really not that appealing.

It is bad enough that people become attracted to pixels, but to become attracted to a character that has snakes for hair is something that boggles my mind. It really does.

If you check out Super Smash Bros. Crusade, you can see how Porky can work. Heck, I'm even voicing him.

I preferred Will for a possible Famicom Wars playable character spot too.

I concur that I don't think the series needs a playable character, but I would certainly like for it to receive a stage (think Animal Crossing).

They won't be looking at her face...

Also, I am surprised you did not mention Krystal.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

You'll just make the Mona support bigger. Breasts, y'know.

You're right! Mona has the highest chance out of any WarioWare character because of the lack of females, have a creative moveset, is Wario's secret lover, and would be a good rival for the 3 princesses (if Palutena counts). Pizza, guitar blast, her moped, twirling baton, and the Monettes. Her pets, Chimp, Piggy, and Phanny, would not be implemented in the moveset due to everyone's hatred of tripping.

 

[Oasis_S]

What about all those Dixie supporters.

Krystal supporters should have to put something in their signature to show they're not a furry.

@R.O.B.: Mona's chances are poopy.

And I don't see how Ashley fans can be pedo if she's 15. If anything, she's jailbait.
Though I am not attacted to her in any way.

Anyways, she's the most popular WarioWare character in Japan, possibly due to the fact she's a magical girl (like in the popular genre of anime) as well as having the appearance of of loli, which are also popular in Japan.

 

[Aurane]

@Star To be fair, being a furry is a choice. It's just like being gay, a hentai lover, or bi, so it's clearly nothing to be a wall for any character, including Krystal or Mona.

Moving on.

So, my analysis on Brian:
Kid (Obviously)
Hasty
Paranoid

That's what I see *so far*

Whenever I main a female, this is the reason 99% of the time, I have no shame admitting it. Take Noel in BlazBlue for example. Took one look at her, thought DAMN ***** BE FINE, and bam, she became my BB main.

They have to be fun to use if I'm gonna stick with them, though.

 

[Oasis_S]

If I were a furry, I would choose to be a chimp. That must be like the bi-curious of furrydom. "Yeah, I dunno, I just don't know if I want to be completely non-hominid, y'know?"

 

[Starphoenix]

That is what I think is going to happen to a lot of these B-list series. Since Brawl introduced the idea of having stages representing franchises that do not call home to a playable character, I could see Sakurai going forward with other stages in the next game. It would not surprise me if we have six or seven stages that fit into this category. The only danger is if Sakurai holds another DOJO like site, which he most likely will, people might react similarly to how they did when Smashville was unveiled.

So you mean people are going to be like "OH I DONT SEE ANY BLACK HOLE MEMBERS IN THE BACKGROUND, THAT MUST MEAN STURM IS PLAYABLE."

* Lol, well, think about it. You're already a chimp What do you think humans are?

Homosapians are a lie.

 

[Deleted member]

Sturm would be pretty cool, actually.

Or Olaf. With his red outfit being his "Santa Claus" colors.

Sturm had one of the best theme's in Advance Wars.

At Star's below comment:
Yep. People never learn.

 

[Starphoenix]

It will be more "OH SNAP THERE IS AN ADVANCE WARS STAGE! IT HAS IT'S OWN ICON TOO; MUST MEAN THERE IS AN ADVANCE WARS CHARACTER! ANDY CONFIRMED?!"

Still, people tend to not learn their lessons so I could see the exact same confusion ultimately leading to disappointment.

She wouldn't even have a fan base if it weren't for that redesign. In her official artwork for the original game, she was a fat, big lipped, blonde, ugly cyclops that constantly drools. Yet she looked similar to the redesign when she transforms after she is beaten in that said game.

I still find Olaf's theme to be the top theme.

Heck, even after not playing the game in years (my friend had it and I played it one day when he came over), I STILL remember Olaf's theme, and when I listened to it a few seconds ago, it was just as I remembered it.

 

[Hoots]

I would love an Advanced Wars character. I was a big supporter of Andy back in the Brawl days before I realized that there will probably never be an AW rep.

 

[SmashChu]

Like how the thread has been looking back on the Brawl days.

I guess that is why I want Palutena. Or maybe because I think she'd fit in well. Nope. Must be boobs.

To be fair, he himself is rather flat. ...Except in the GameBoy remake. Anyway, have you gotten into the first dungeon yet?(simply put, they don't have a map, nor does a town. Your regular Map will point them out. If they're not a Town, they're a dungeon.)

 

[ChronoBound]

Yep. I always found it weird that Medusa's design in the actual Kid Icarus game differed so much from the artwork.

 

[Deleted member]

I support Medusa, but not because I find her attractive. It's more or less because she's a villain that can provide an interesting moveset already based on who she is. (She's freaking Medusa! Snakes and petrifying stares FTW!)
That, and I loves me some Greek mythology.

EDIT: Oh, and she already has some things, even if they're small, that can be used from the first Kid Icarus.

 

[ChronoBound]

I guess that is why I want Palutena. Or maybe because I think she'd fit in well. Nope. Must be boobs.

Breasts are nature's mind control devices.

However, right now I don't see a reason to support Palutena and Medusa, and I am going to wait until Uprising is released before I can have a more informed opinion on them.

Right now, the only female character that I am positive on is Dixie Kong. However, I think Palutena and Medusa will be added to that assuming Uprising is great.

 

[Diddy Kong]

An Advance Wars character would be cool to have, but the series aren't very big anymore I think. Always hugely prefered Fire Emblem over it, and it seems Sakurai and Inteligent Systems does the same. Fire Emblem feels far more personal, and I'm not a big fan of the gameplay system hugely based on funds / money in the game. But still, if there's a new Advance Wars game and it's good, why not have the main character from it playable? Played the latest DS game however, and could never beat it... The general who dies later on was kinda awesome. Reminded me slightly of Hector from 7 and Greil from Path of Radiance.

GSN is being his own sexy self again I see <3

Ohh, and I'm totally gonna post my revamp ideas for Link and a moveset for Impa along with some random character playstyle descriptions on what I'd like to see in Smash 4 for which character. Gimme some time on this however.
