Someone is already making a moveset for them.I think you make a moveset for Ridley or Megaman! Are much better than mii!
To be fair, I have seen some support for Starfy for SSB4 and he has had moderate popularity. I for one would love to see him in SSB4 and hope he gets upgraded to playable status.ChronoBound said:
Well, I always thought Ike's Final Smash was uncharacteristic for him (Ragnell has no fire attributes to it). My first idea initially was actually to give Ike's current final smash to Roy, and make Ike's Final Smash like the canonical Great Aether from Radiant Dawn.
See Roy and Marth had similar moveset because they are have the same generic Fire Emblem starting class (Lord) using rapiers as their starting weapon....Ike was among the unique Fire Emblem Lords and offered a different style of swordmanship.
Eruption is actually is an earth attribute and Ike's affinity is Earth.
I was talking about him being an AT. Being playable would be very hard since his style of fighting is very unusual (Though I'm sure it's possible with enough thought). With characters like Issac, Little Mac, Saki, and Stafy being playable there has to be replacements for AT's. I think Balloon Fighter can be very effective flying and kicking people around.
But you have to consider though, since Sakurai will most likely takes a poll or record sales in Japan into account, you got to ask yourself, will he be looking at sales made in America? At this point I am pretty much doubting the idea, but that does not mean he isn't at least taking a look and considering high sales from America, if anything I hope Sakurai takes a worldwide approach regarding sales and such for considering a character, rather than solely looking at the Japan market, it gives some characters advantages while others a disadvantage due to sakes such as FE: Radiant Dawn.
Starfy actually has the sales success to justify his inclusion. The only problem I see though is whether Sakurai himself may be biased against Starfy. He is one of the weakest offensive Assist Trophies (if not, the weakest) and is the only one that can be KO'd.
How so? Starfy may be popular but if Sakurai isn't willing to put him over Ray Mk, then it probably won't happen.
Oh Starfy is definitely likely, he has a rather deep move pool and has a large history. Out of all the new series we have been discussion he seems the most likely. Plus I wouldn't worry about any bias on Sakurai's part. If anything I see him as just playing along with the whole, supposed, rivalry between Kirby and Starfy.
That's why I'm also really hoping he takes a worldwide sales to including characters. It would be absolutely stupid to keep Little Mac and Ridley out just because Punch-Out!! and Metroid aren't exactly best sellers in that country. Most people who buy video games are in America and Europe, not Japan. Looking at sales worldwide will lead to better character choices made, pretty much guarantee Ridley and Little Mac (Providing the former doesn't get stopped for the BS "He's too big" excuse), and increase the chances of Starfy and Isaac/Matthew being playable, not to mention other things.But you have to consider though, since Sakurai will most likely takes a poll or record sales in Japan into account, you got to ask yourself, will he be looking at sales made in America?

I think Starfy was made a joke due to Sakurai's lack of knowledge regarding the Starfy series. With us running out of good choices, I can imagine Sakurai doing some serious research to get good newcomers in and to meet fan demands. This will put some characters at an advantage (Starfy/Isaac) and some at a disadvantage (King K. Rool/Saki Amamiya).
Sakurai seems to be aware that there are many who want Saki, however, the comment of "I did what I could" makes me think that perhaps he might think he does not deserve to be a playable character necessarily.
I'd like too also see Saki, Definetly has more of a chance and potential than Starfy IMO.Starphoenix said:
I think he did that mainly because at the time, Saki Amamiya had no other appearances in games and was very irrelevant. With him becoming an Assist Trophy, he got a lot more exposure and is more recognizable then Isa Jo. Like I've said before, relevancy is a lot more then just the latest game appearance. In this case, despite not appearing in the second game, Saki could technically be considered more relevant then Isa Jo, since people are more familiar with him then his son, was an Assist Trophy, and seems to be highly requested. I can easily see Sakurai putting him in as playable and Isa Jo taking over as Assist Trophy. It's also why I see Isaac as much more likely then Matthew, although this case is more extreme since Isaac has appeared in all three games.ChronoBound said:
That is what I gather too. Is Sakurai didn't want to add him due to the series being so unfamiliar. Which may explain much of the lack of other Sin and Punishment content. Now that the series is technically active (for now) I think this will give Sakurai more of a demand for this character. Plus, ever since his inclusion in Brawl, there is now a greater Western demand for Saki to become playable. Out of all of the Assist Trophies I see a demand for Saki is probably number one, edging out Isaac. With those two things coupled together, I would not be surprised to see Saki be one of the first "promoted" AT's.
I cannot explain it to you more than he has been more relevant in the bigger picture.
If you'd like I can create one? Wouldn't be much to do since he has a short name.
Yes, I would like one. Preferably, I would it to be made from his official artwork from Melee.
Do you realize that Roy actually had good sales in Japan? Maybe not in America but I kind of agree with you.
FE6 (the one with Roy) was the third-best selling game in the series in Japan. The only two games that sold better were FE4 (second-best) and FE3 (best-selling, the Super Nintendo one with Marth).Do you realize that Roy actually had good sales in Japan?
No I did not. I'll check tomorrow to see whenever or not it is gone.Did you guys hear?They took out spectator mode on ssbb
They have??Did you guys hear?They took out spectator mode on ssbb
Personally I love the Black Knight WAY better than Roy, he is very diverse from the "lighter" sword fighters we've seen in Smash.
@Chrono: Hey, I think you should pull out your Roy moveset once more, I'll have to save it for reference.
This. The game for the most part was fantastic IMO, but no core gamer can denied that Brawl's online was nothing short of a disaster. Huge lag fests, terrible friend code systems, very limited content online, almost everything was totally butchered. To prevent a crapfest like this from happening again, we need to actively ensure that we stop this from happening with SSB4.They have??
I never really bothered playing Brawl's online anyway for the two(2) years that I've had it, I've heard alot of horror stories about it.
That's why you should Join Operation:Connect, it focuses on the matter to improve online by successfully delivering and convincing Nintendo/Sakurai/Sora.
Who cares if he's....., if Ike were to return in a new FE which I REALLY doubt, then his chances will definetly skyrocket, otherwise we might not see him at all if a totally new FE comes out, sadly but true.
May I ask why requesting a competent online service is going to hurt? I would also like to know why you even joined the group in the first place if you think it's a bad idea.
