Klonoa and Guntz were in Namco X Capcom, but they got shafted into NPC cameos for the next games. I just want Mono to break the boundaries to include Cereal Mascots like how SSBB broke the boundaries of Nintendo-only content with the Sonic and Metal Gear series.
Mostly because it's a crossover with SEGA involved. I always figured that if somebody from Sonic does get in, it should be Eggman, since he's a human character.
Does this means the human Mario characters and Puyo Puyo characters can also be in the third game?
Fixed it.
Maybe not Mario, but Puyo Puyo characters I could see if they were based on the Compile era.
I vividly remmber playing this small eshop game Adventure Bar Story a lot.
The Wii U Virtual console is a huge highlight for me. People love to **** on the Wii U and I'm not going to pretend it was the best console ever, but I discovered so many good retro games thanks for this console, such as Mario rpg, but also a lot of DS Games that I didn't have a chance to play at the time such as Wario Ware touched, Yoshi Island DS and FE shadow dragon.
I never based my speculations on that. I just bought the games that I liked.
Whose the 2 either side of Pikachu?
Noah from Xenoblade 3 and Meowscarada from Pokémon Scarlet/Violet.
'd
While Xenoblade, Splatoon, Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem recieving characters are a given.
Yeah in the 90s but today, not so much especially to their newer bigger hitters.
DK is a larger and more storied series overall though, and has heavy presence in spinoffs. I could potentially see a lack of Yoshi though.
Ironically, Ness was kind of supposed to be an "obvious/promotionnal" character. At the time of Smash 64 development (1998), Mother 3 was in development for N64 and was supposed to released on that same year, but it got delayed multiple time before getting cancelled. So the only odd one was really Samus (as in she's the only character to not have a N64 games), but considering Metroid success it wasn't an extremely surprising pick either.
This feels less like an actual realistic attempt at a 2023 starting Smash roster and more like just trying to create the most doomerish scenario possible
And Ness is here for some reason.
yeah, sakurai
Well Earthbound was pretty big in Japan, it sold as much as Super Metroid there. Also see my other post about a Earthbound game being in development at the same time as Smash 64. It also sold better than any Fire emblem at the time, yet Marth was planned for Smash 64 and cut due to time limits.
Call me nitpicky, but replace Pika with Pokémon Trainer with his team formed by Pikachu, Charizard and Mewtwo. That's the way i fixed it, so anyone can judge me
Having only Meowscarada reeks of trying to fill quotas on a roster that doesn't even have the "over/underrepresentation" issue to begin with: SSBU's roster may not have a fully-evolved grass starter or gen 9 Pokemon...but if there was no Smash to begin with, there also wouldn't be any Pokemon from the previous 8 generations, let alone fire or water starters that need a trinity "completed".
That'd still technically be 2 extra characters, which I'd assume would kinda defy the purpose of this 12 roster template.
explains a lot
So my question is how are you confusing the base box art with the cards ?
That would be a rad video series!
Check the standard box art, not the special edition art. Besides that Marth was highly promoted in the trailers and marketing for the game.
I cited his Sw/Sh appearance, which is mainline. Really, Zard's recognizability is in a tier of its own among Pokemon which, as I said in the last post, justifies his inclusion regardless of any Switch relevance to begin with. But, also as I was saying, he does have Switch-era relevance anyway...
I wasn't talking about being relevant in the competitive scene, either in Smash or in the PKMN games themselves, mainline or otherwise. Competitive relevance is hardly a requirement. Leon...is absolutely Switch-era relevant, and it is significant when an oldgen mon is a Champion's main.
A Smash game without Captain Falcon is a really dystopian timeline...
Does being featured looking like a ghost really count ?
Considering Marth is still a main character in the game's plot, yes.
very hard to be a main character when they are not alive. no ?
What does that have to do with anything? Plenty of games have dead main characters in them.
I really don't consider any character to be a main one if they are dead. Jesus being one of the few exceptions.
You say that as if both can't be true. Look at the DLC choices especially for the first party did for Ult and you can easily how correlates strongly with this mock-up. Not much to be hopeful
I agree with Zard but Marth is real stretch. Yeah he has legecy but just like DK isn't enough to overshine the newer, popular mainstays. Nintendo especially always want to advertise the newest thing when comes to their rosters since Arms. Three Houses and Xenoblade: All recent titles being the focus of representation.
Jesus? Like, the Bible? What the **** are y’all going on about in this thread?
yes exactly.
But ARMS, TH, and Xeno2 only got represented AFTER all the previous bigtime picks like DK, Marth, etc. were already in the game. That doesn't mean the former group would get priority over the latter group if Smash was starting from square one; it was never on the table to have to choose specifically between Alear and Marth, or between ARMS and DK (nor do I think it will be going forward, hence the triviality of this discussion).
Marth is literally in the same Switch game as Alear, who also only appears in one Switch game, but unlike Marth doesn't have a pre-Switch resume.
