So now it's Powerful instead of Strong?

No matter what any one says, people will never be able to guess a roster perfectly. Every one is bias to certain characters/series and chances are there are gonna be one or two characters that no one would have guessed in a million years

Personally i want a roster with people like cp. syrup & chibi-robo, but there are people she want characters like Takamaru and pacman, and the facts are most of these characters won't get in.

People assume that the developers are gonna chose a perfect roster of characters, but chances are they won't have time to include every fan favourite, not to mention that often they don't even listen to the fans unless the fan base is loud enough (and I mean REALLY loud). *cough* ridley *cough*

Not only that, but they're probably gonna go ahead and do a mewtwo, where they scrap some characters, and fill their slots with newer characters, particularly with games like Pokemon and Fire emblem, because the truth is smash basically a really fun innovative fighting game, but a advertisements painted all over it (especially with franchises like pokemon, fire emblem, Earthbound, ect) so according to their logic at nintendo "why bother including lucario in ssb4, when we can sell gen 5 using zoroark instead"

However I do believe that game designers seem to be listening to the internet more and more and that this time around fan faves like Ridley are pretty much certain.

Anyway, bottom line is, we can guess and think and theorise, but at the end of the day the roster will probably end up as a strange mixed bag of predictably-suprising dissapointingly-awesome characters, and no matter the size of the roster, as long as the gameplay kicks ***, I'm willing to pay for this game.

3 posts and you already understand this topic is mostly just people going to each other "But this is what I want." Good man.

I still think Waluigi/Isaac/Saki/Lyn/Goroh/Jill/Stafy/Kat&Ana are shoe-ins based on their AT status. Jeff/Grey Fox/Shadow/Resetti/Knuckle Joe/Hammer Bro I'm unsure about, but here's why:

Jeff: EarthBound, as loud and dedicated as its fan base is, doesn't actually deserve a second rep in the large scale of things.

Grey Fox & Shadow: This would be a second Konami/Sega representative, and I'm not sure they want to do that over putting more third party developers in.

Resetti: As fit for fighting as he is, and as much as his temper and banter would suit it, Animal Crossing is just too peaceful.

Knuckle Joe & Hammer Bro: No generic enemy has yet been playable in Smash Bros.

Ah, so many spoilers, and I can't even get a hold of the game until later today. I've looked at most of the other spoilers but I won't spoil Dark Pit's story or the ending/final boss for myself.


Also am I the only one who's bored of just talking about KI?

Ask me a week from now, until then it is still fresh game. Than a month from now we can all talk about Fire Emblem: Awakening and all that good stuff. Who knows what we will talk about in May? At least then it will only be a month away until E3.

I'm just tried of all the goddess war stuff thats going on thats all. I honestly don't think it really matters in the end with which one ends up being more popular anyway.

EDIT: I'd rather talk about content the game could bring besides characters.

Technically there still is Magnus. He isn't just a one chapter character like previously thought (not going to spoil anything about that). He could have a chance if people like him enough. I can see him playing like Jecht from Dissidia FF, and how people envisioned Ganondorf and his big sword.

So, just got KI today with the awesome remake. However, I'm playing Skyrim right now, so I put the game up for now (Gottamovethatsmithup!)

Also, this song better still be in Sm4sh.

Jeff? Who the hell's Jeff?

Yahoo~~~~ I got it! Maaannn. This game was bit hard first to get hold off in controls, but it was worth it. (-lUl-)^

I headslammed myself when hearing the familiar jingle after putting the game in. WHY NO ORCHESTRATION?!
Music is damn awesome though. So be-A-YU-tiful! (-=U=-)

[collapse=Chapter 1 - 2]
Chapter 1 was... quite short. (-l.l-); I totally liked the entrance of Medusa though. But I think my sis did even more. Holy smokes, Twinbellows. (-0[]o-);;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; So epic and in FIRE.

The humor is so top-notch. Even BETTER than in Star Fox 64.


I think everything got better just from the Chapter 2. Also, I think I love Magnus now. He's banter between Pit was funny. Also Magnus talking to Palutena and then I TAKE THAT BACK HE'S A JERK = I almost got a game over because I lol'd so much.

WHEN I SAW WHO GAOL REALLY WAS

*GASP GASP GAAAAASSSPPPPP*

[/collapse]

Now tried to find way to gain more weapons. (-l^l-);; But get so much as I caan~

Jeff was in a slightly obscure RPG that already has a rep for its game and two for the series. Waluigi is a staple of Mario spinoffs. Waluigi has a better chance of getting in. Sorry that you hate him, but you don't have to buy the game.
Lol Mario Kart 7.

Smash is no Mario spin off. Toad, Bowser Jr., heck even Paper Mario, Kamek and Dr.Mario would make better choices.

Jeff doesn't stand out much either, but EarthBound definitely is more deserving of a second rep than Waluigi is. My guess is that they'd include Porky instead of Jeff though, but its not like Jeff wouldn't be interesting.

Even Shy Guy would be better yeah, but that ain't happening either. :rolleyes: Give me Toad already, and afterwards I don't care what they do with Mario characters. Still, they probably will have to do their best to make Toad work. Maybe he could also share Peach's Down B attack, and an attack similar to Peach's Toad as well. I could easily picture him doing Kirby's dash attack as well, and copying Mario / Luigi's Up Smash (maybe give them something new as well?) and I think Squirtle's Up Tilt would fit him really good as well. Overall I picture him indeed as a mix between Mario and Kirby, with a few specials borrowed from Peach. Toad's Down B could work differently though, just as the bombs of the Links do.

I dont see why people want Toad that bad.

He's alright but they're better Mario characters out there.

Not really I'm afraid. Not as long as Waluigi is on those lists as possible candidates.

Smash is a Nintendo spin-off crossover series. Likewise, only Dr. Mario would indefinitely make a better choice anyway. Alteast objectively, since Sakurai think Waluigi is more important than those other guy.

Jeff doesn't stand out much either, but EarthBound definitely is more deserving of a second rep than Waluigi is. My guess is that they'd include Porky instead of Jeff though, but its not like Jeff wouldn't be interesting.

:phone:
Nah, Earthbound and Mother 3 are both good hero-wise. If anything, a villain is much better than yet another less memorable hero. Porky is a better choice due to being in Smash already. We've seen him fight. Of course, it would require modifications to how he works.

Also, Jeff barely stands out at all. Earthbound is an extremely difficult game to find, and you can't even finish it on an emulator. But you can easily find any game with Waluigi in it. Of course he's more well known and popular. People know him. Likewise, as said before, there's quite a huge debate of whether games like Mario Kart are true spin-offs. Paper Mario is probably the only one that has its own separate storyline from the regular series due to being a completely separated world and its own canon. The entirely different paper style makes a huge difference as is.

Can you stop with the 'Sakurai doesn't care about these guys'-argument. It doesn't make sense. Does Sakurai think that the Hammer Bro is a better character than Bowser Jr. cause he's an AT, while Jr. isn't? What's in Smash and what's not in Smash isn't all his ideas alone anyway. :/

Also, Porky would make a great character.
Even though I don't eat,pork.
Ain't nothing Waluigi could stand up to. Jeff would still be better than Waluigi, even though the series is less popular. You could say Ness himself is also less popular or at least, less well known than Waluigi.

But here let's say it again: people knowing of Waluigi isn't necessary a good thing, considering at least half the games he appears in are less than mediocre.

Shy Guy could be nice, although his voice would get annoying. His final smash would probably be him taking his mask off.

Yeah, he does clearly think that. That's why he gave the Hammer Bro more fighting capabilities. And he said himself that he takes all the credit for everything in Brawl. Outside of some playable characters, we have to go by his word. He didn't choose Ike, mind you. But he chose nearly everything else, including AT. If he didn't? Well, you can't really say that since you have absolutely no proof and the only proof is that he explicitly took credit for most of the game unless proven otherwise.

Also, Porky would make a great character.
Even though I don't eat,pork.

Atleast Porky does something. Hard to see him fight, though...

Jeff would still be better than Waluigi, even though the series is less popular. You could say Ness himself is also less popular or at least, less well known than Waluigi.
Sorry, but he isn't at all. He's an obscure secondary character. Waluigi is a very well known secondary character. Jeff isn't even as popular as him. Until Nintendo releases Earthbound(and Mother 2) on the VC, Jeff's chances are pretty bad. Also, Ness is the main hero. They beat secondary characters automatically. Not to mention, he's also one of the full main characters. Just like Porky and Giygas. And MAYBE Paula at best.

But here let's say it again: people knowing of Waluigi isn't necessary a good thing, considering at least half the games he appears in are less than mediocre.

Reviews severely disagree with you and that's your opinion, not fact.

Present your stuff as opinions. If you present it as a fact, the Sakurai argument will shut that crap down. It wins over your opinions every time.

God, I hope we get a CG trailer at E3. I just wanna see at least one newcomer confirmed for Smash 4 soon :cry:
I expect one a 3-6 months AFTER E3. I don't think waiting that little bit longer for one would be a big deal... especially if we got a small teaser/hype trailer at E3. :cool:
Oh, and Samurai Goroh for Smash
This quote is JUSTICE!!! :awesome:

Overall I'm beginning to think a small teaser/hype trailer at E3 is becoming more and more likely...

Edit:
There sure are a lot of (mini?) boss battles in Kid Icarus Uprising... :facepalm:

Jeff would also do something, namely: fight. He could have a lot of projectiles for his specials. His tool fixing ability would be cool to implement as well. He's much more unique than Waluigi ever could be.

Waluigi isn't even a secondary character yet. Otherwise he would've appeared in main stream Mario games as one.
