My opinion which is 100% fact.Waluigi has more than 0%?
This. All of this.
He's garnered a lot of hate over there for the past few months.That's actually really low for Waluigi on GameFAQS. They love that fella..
And how do you come to that conclusion? Caeda is only in 4 of the 13 games while Anna is in 12.
Tell me, how many games in the series has she actually appeared in Japan since her debut?Yuui: She still is important in Japan, tell me then why you can unlock HER stage in japanese version of Planet Puzzle League? Not Yoshi's. Or Pikachu's.
It's just NOA's localization reception /taking out fairies, locking Lip's stage for international release/ that is killing this series and turning her obscure. Can't believe everyone now thinks Lip's actually unimportant when it's NOA who's the ONE making her unimportant. Intelligent Systems thus are afraid of putting any characters because it would hinder international sales due all changeup. But they at least keep Lip alive in Japanese installments.
It surely had nothing to do with Marth being essentially the "main" hero as well as the first.
Please excuse me while I crap my pants. I saw the Masked Marth
This is the best post of your life.
That's hilarious. From what people are saying on the Serenes Forest, you recruit her in a Gaiden chapter, meaning that she's an optional character with next to no involvement in the main story outside of her side story chapter and support conversations. lol
What you are saying that Sakurai can decide Error from Zelda II can replace Mario. I get that. And of course there is nothing 100% confirmed. But I can say without a shadow of a doubt Link. will be playable, and Error will not. It's this little thing called "logic" you seem to be discounting and overlooking. Sakurai isn't going to add a minor character from a minor franchise. He has not done this in the past, and he won't start doing that until he runs out of small franchise major characters and minor characters from major franchises first.
That's weird. Maybe
I agree that there should be more free world exploring in 3D Mario games. I also agree that Galaxy 1 and 2 didn't do that enough. However, I think the way Sunshine did it was boring. There were too many beaches, too many awkward areas, and "points of no return" (which IMO is never a good thing in platform games). Overall 64 did it best. Every level in 64 IMO was memorable. I remember all of those levels vividly, and I have fond memories of all of them. (although the tiny/large word was hard to get used to)
The inside of Pina Park I agree on. The outside=??? It was stupid. I don't get why you couldn't backtrack, or why the outside of the park even existed. There was some dumb "outside" like this on several levels (that was made a thousand times worse by the "points of no return"). The hotel level also had this issue, although the outside was much better. However, even that "outside area" was far from perfect. It was noticeably absent of that special "thing." IMO it should have also been much bigger (outside).
It was fun to use, but it was overused. Really, there should have been more nozzles for FLUDD, actual power ups. Fire Mario, ice Mario, raccoon Mario, Toad Mario, Fish Mario, Koopa Mario, THE SHOE OF PAIN AND DEATH, etc. Heck, we could even use ballerina Mario!
Bowser's voice = 
Okay, what did you do with the real Johnknight1 and where is he.

You clearly have not comprehended what I am saying.
Think: Fire Emblem is not a 1st Party series; Sakurai has to negotiate with Intelligent Systems for usages of its characters. Whatever Sakurai and IS feel is necessary will be done, as Roy and Ike both show.
With Mario, he has liberties and can choose the popular characters with no problem. Bowser and Peach were 1st and 2nd on the Pre-Melee poll, and naturally, they were added into the series. The only exception to this was Dr. Mario, who was not heavily demanded by fans, however it does go to note that fans had SOMETHING to do with it by giving Sakurai an idea about Dr. Mario when a suggestion was made to make him a costume for Mario.
It's this little thing called "logic" which you seem to not comprehend.
Also Ivysaur is pretty damn minor and random within the Pokemon series. All it is is a bridge between the popular Bulbasaur and the powerful Venusaur. Who honestly gives a **** about Ivysaur of all Pokemon?
Also, Anna has no shot. She's done nothing somebody else hasn't already done except be there in the background. According to what Triple Dash is saying (assuming it is true), she's an optional playable character in her only playable appearance. No, someone like Master Chief has no shot. And again, her shot depends on Intelligent System/Sakurai. If they don't see any value in including her, they won't. If they do, they will. Simple as that.
Besides, so far all the characters that have been playable in smash from Fire Emblem have been Lords. Why would this change=??? Pure coincidence. As I have said before which you clearly have ignored, Roy was added on Sakurai's whim, and it was to promote the then-upcoming Binding Blade. Ike was Intelligent System's suggestion on a Newcomer for Brawl.
It was by pure coincidence that the two were Lords and there is no set rule that only Lords are allowed in Smash.
That's weird. Maybesupport will actually be challenged byKrom'snow imminent fan base for a spot in the Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS roster. That is of course, ifLukina'srole is big enough and rivalsLukina'srole. According to your stating on Lords, she won't have a chance. Last I checked, she wasn't a Lord. Only Krom and the My Unit were Lords. And with Marth's Kakusei outfit matching hers sans Mask, do you really think they will include her? It'd be like adding Ninten now despite us having Ness.Krom's
Also, Anna support is gonna die, just like what happened to all the other Fire Emblem females short of Lyn!
And if support forstarts, it will die just the same. Especially when people note that the only difference between her and Marth is gender, and that's not saying much.Lukina
Totally called it...you are ********.Totally called it... Anna is Golden Y's Impa.
Why would Intelligent Systems say no to a character=??? If they did, Sakurai and Nintendo could be like "Okay. We'll just add another Pokémon instead" to take away their leverage. This is free advertisement. What "leverage" do you have for something that makes your brand bigger=??? Heck without the Melee advertisement of Fire Emblem, the series would have never left Japan.
While Ivysaur isn't well know by non-Nintendo fans (Nintendo fans largely know what an Ivysaur is), it was made as a bridge to Squirtle and Charizard, whom most gamers know of. That is because Ivysaur was the middle of the balanced "lightweight-midweight-heavyweight" concept for the Pokémon Trainer.
Fine. "Anna ha next to no shot because she is a minor character in a minor franchise who has virtually no impact on the main story of any Fire Emblem game."
Changed, because things can change in the development cycle.
No, it is because they are the main characters of their games. Roy was the main character of Fire Emblem 6. Ike was the main character of Path of Radiance and the better/last half of Radiant Dawn. Anna is just an optional character. Even if she wasn't, there's been hundreds of playable supporting characters in Fire Emblem. None of them have been anything more than a trophy or sticker. Heck, the one Assist Trophy character was Lyn, who is also a Lord.
Lucas/Ness and Mario/Luigi have pretty much the same shirt and pants (different colored shirts is the only difference) Does that eliminate them=???
We don't know that yet.
Because I used spoilers a lot. All of my funny stuff was in the spoilers.
Thankies. :D And THAT is the kind of post I'd expect from you, full of faces haha.Those were some pretty inspired special attacks for Princess Sable (who I know nothing about).
Good job Holdereth of thy Heelether!
I guess. Not to mention we haven't seen enough of the game yet.
This. lol
Responses in red. I'm honestly done with this whole argument. People just seem so closed minded, and I don't really see the point in continuing an argument for a character that I wouldn't care if she made it.Why would Intelligent Systems say no to a character=??? If they did, Sakurai and Nintendo could be like "Okay.We'll just add another Pokémon instead" to take away their leverage. This is free advertisement. What "leverage" do you have for something that makes your brand bigger=???Who do you suggest instead?"Heck without the Melee advertisement of Fire Emblem, the series would have never left Japan.Fixed for truth. It's not like Sakurai's a dictator that would say "Let us use this character or you won't get a character from this series." There is this thing called "compromise".
While Ivysaur isn't well know by non-Nintendo fans (Nintendo fans largely know what an Ivysaur is), it was made as a bridge to Squirtle and Charizard, whom most gamers know of. That is because Ivysaur was the middle of the balanced "lightweight-midweight-heavyweight" concept for the Pokémon Trainer. Your point? It's still frigging minor of a Pokemon. Even Magikarp would be considered more major, given that it's frigging well known as the weak Pokemon that becomes Gyarados.
Also, Ivysaur certainly was a heck of a lot more well known than characters like Captain Falcon, Ness, the Ice Climbers, Sheik, Mr. Game and Watch, Marth, Roy, Pit, Ike, Captain Olimar, and ROB before they were in Smash.
Tell me you're joking for most of these. PLEASE tell me you're joking. I'm not even sure how to respond to such blasphemy.
Fine. "Anna ha next to no shot because she is a minor character in a minor franchise who has virtually no impact on the main story of any Fire Emblem game." More like "Anna has next to no shot because I say so."
Changed, because things can change in the development cycle. Do you really want to get technical, as that can heavily backfire.
No, it is because they are the main characters of their games. Roy was the main character of Fire Emblem 6. Ike was the main character of Path of Radiance and the better/last half of Radiant Dawn. Anna is just an optional character. Even if she wasn't, there's been hundreds of playable supporting characters in Fire Emblem. None of them have been anything more than a trophy or sticker. Heck, the one Assist Trophy character was Lyn, who is also a Lord.
No, Roy and Ike being the main characters didn't give them free passes. Intelligent Systems could've suggested the frigging Black Knight instead of Ike, and Sakurai would've likely gone with that. And this point had actually nothing to do with Anna to be honest. It had to do with the fact that you seem (and still seem) that only Lords are allowed in Smash, which is not true. It only so happens that the characters that were playable and Assist were Lords. If Pichu wasn't in Melee and Lucario wasn't in Brawl, would you be arguing that only 1st Gen Pokemon were allowed?
Lucas/Ness and Mario/Luigi have pretty much the same shirt and pants (different colored shirts is the only difference) Does that eliminate them=???
No, because unlike Ness/Ninten and Marth/[Masked Marth's true identity], there are easily distinguishable differences. With Ness/Ninten, there literally is no difference. If you can name any (that are canon), I'd be surprised. With the two Marth's, all that is different is the face, from what I've seen. ("But what if she wears the mask?" Then it's pretty much just Marth wearing a mask with a girl's voice.)
We don't know that yet.could have original moves and be totally different. Plus I remember when Ike was introduced in Fire Emblem. There were automatically people clamoring for him to be in Smash (possibly to replace Roy) and people who said "he's got no chance."Lukina
From what we've seen, she is like Krom. Why not just add Krom then? Or even the two together as a tag-team?
And wouldn't what you say about Ike more or less support my argument about how we can't predict by fan output?
As my pal John Locke says, "New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without anyother reason but because they are not already common." As my English professor says to me constantly, you can't have quotes stand alone. Clarify your point, please.
Really Golden, there are at least 200 better characters who are more popular, more important to their series' story lines/game play/history, and have more potential to be original than Anna. That is why I don't even think Anna will get a look from Sakurai.probably will get at least small consideration, given said character's role in the latest (and from how it's hyped, greatest) game in the Fire Emblem series.Lukina
This sounds like one of Diddy's arguments for Impa, only you're talking about a new character rather than an older one coming out of the woodwork.
