Sorry. No one is saying that we can't get western characters. People agree we can get western characters. What we disagree with is the chance of getting characters who basically don't show up in Japan.
Actually, if you noticed, my claim that there was no statement has not only remained consistent but also true the entire time; there truly hasn't been anything showing that there some obstacle for Western characters like ones from MK. You're just assuming the opposite of what Sakurai said. That's not an official statement.
This is something you can't really say for sure. You can't compare Lucas, a character from one game that was never localized, to Scorpion, a character from many games in a much more famous series that was. This comparison doesn't match up. It doesn't matter how long it's been since MK games were localized or how well they did, MK is not some unknown in Japan and fans do recognize the series no matter what. It's that famous.
It will not be Ankha.
I would rank them like this: Tom Nook, then Resetti, then KK. After that it gets kinda muddy.
Maybe on the websites you're going to.
doesI am not a fan at all of the whole "multiple characters as alts in 1 slot" sort of thing in general, as I think they should just pick a top candidate as best they can and be as completely true as they can to that singular character's personality and attributes.Personally I prefer a 3rd animal crossing to be 8 characters in 1 they all are not really fighters so they can pretty much do anything
well tom nook makes the most sense, though that doesn't always matter for smash. if they wanted to go the easy route and go for an echo theres always digby
Oh boy, now I REALLY want another Ballot...
If you think about it we could have gotten 16 animal crossing characters I don’t think anyone would be disappointed many animal crossing players could have their own favorites included
into its own customization like Mii fighters but it’s only about skins of the other characters in animal crossing and they all have announcer calling their names and more could be added through DLC alongside the Mii costumes.
I'm guessing similar to cinematic Final Smashes?
Yes please anything to slow the game down even more!
Honestly I think there's an even more damning example than Mike Jones.
TBH, I hope that alts can at most change idles, face animations, and taunts in the future. That way, we can have things like ALttP Zelda, SS Zelda, and BotW Zelda sharing animations while OoT and TP Zelda do likewise, all in one slot.
It wouldn't work I don't think, especially when many of the biggest characters you'd like to be sure to include, like KK and Resetti, are some of the most distinct in terms of their abilities. KK would need to have his guitar and they even made his Mii costume a gunner so that he could have it; KK wouldn't be right without his musical themes, and the other AC characters wouldn't really look right with them. Resetti, in addition to his pickaxe and underground burrowing (as well as potentially speech bubbling, though I guess other characters could maybe do that even if it wouldn't be as befitting to them), has his hostile and irritable mannerisms which are so much a part of his character that I don't think he could fit in with the Villager/Isabelle sort of moveset. Others like Timmy/Tommy and the Able sisters they would probably want to make into combo characters, not to mention that Timmy/Tommy probably couldn't have the same hitboxes as someone like Tom Nook.If you think about it we could have gotten 16 animal crossing characters I don’t think anyone would be disappointed many animal crossing players could have their own favorites included
Perhaps turning
Animal crossing is pretty much the perfect series for these kind of treatment knowing that it also has large community and players
I am actually good with Zelda being more or less how she is in Ult but wouldn't mind some other versions of the character being alts if it could be done with minimal effort. In general, though, too many characters as alts of each other runs the risk of dampening the allstar and crossover aspects, in addition to potentially undermining the diversity of personalities and abilities among the given characters.
A character shouldn't need to be a Number-in-One Package to appear interesting. I know Smash made some of these characters popular alongside fighting games with character costumes, but the thing that makes Smash a big deal with it's characters is how the characters feel true to themselves. How they feel very close to their original identity. Making a moveset for the purpose of fitting as many characters as possible comes across as less trying to stay true to the characters and more trying to stack as much as possible without stability to the characters themselves.Personally I prefer a 3rd animal crossing to be 8 characters in 1 they all are not really fighters so they can pretty much do anything
That seems even better. It could work for certain iterations of one character. It could have small effects like a Fire Mario alt adding fire effects to all of his attacks. Or Cat Mario having slash effects on certain attacks and catlike idles and taunts.
I don’t care about Animal Crossing and I’m not into that kind of stuff personally but Ankha is probably my favorite character from what limited knowledge I have just because I’ve always loved ancient Egyptian aesthetic. That’s why Cofagrigus and Lucario are among my favorite Pokémon and Pharaoh Man is my favorite Robot Master.
She existed long before the animation. She was in the Gamecube Animal Crossing and City Folk for the Wii. She's been in all the games since City Folk. I can imagine that some people may have liked her before the animation.
Always enjoyed Egyptian stuff myself since I was a kid and she does have a neat design. That said, Tom Nook certainly should come to Smash Bros. first. I mean, who doesn't want to beat him up at least once.....in Smash Bros. I mean.
I know Ankha has consistently been near the top of every popularity/design tier list fans like to make. But that's not the kind of attraction I'm talking about.
And I can still imagine some people liking her that way before the animation regardless. It's likely the same for alot of characters who one day suddenly became quite popular. They more than likely had a couple "fans" or more before their sudden popularity boost.
Yes, but the problem is like in the cinematic FS, they will interrupt the match.
I just read about that on GameFAQS. You can’t fault him for not being ambitious at least. I wonder if he got his answer.
Hahahaha what an absolute champion. They totally stepped around his question too. ****ing Nintendo just greenlight an F-Zero you ********. We know there are some companies willing to do it. C'mon!
And what did they say?
There is no rating agency in the world that has firearm on content descriptor.
Putting aside where my obvious biases are...
I believe they said something along the lines of "we can't make a new game for every series fans ask us to, but thanks for the continued support".
Good idea. We have ideas. Maybe not your idea but thanks for the input.
