I don't get why people want Young Link in Smash 4.

The only reason he got in Melee is because the Zelda characters in that game are based on Ocarina of Time, which showed a younger Link. (Ganon could be an expection, since his design is actually based on the Space World 2000 demo)

Twilight Princess, which is the game that the Zelda characters are based on in Brawl and 4, does not feature a younger Link, not even in concept art (unlike Sheik), so we got the next best thing; the Hero of Wind.

And Tink's moveset is basically a Luigified Young Link; Boomerang and Spin Attack have the same properties, they can wall jump and their swords do punching sounds.
Majoras Mask bias seems to be the reason.

And/or Melee nostalgia

I thought only the 3DS exclusive DLC was transferrable.
With the 3ds version i probably won't play the Wii U version anymore (which I barely played). From the looks of it the 3ds version comes with some if not all of the DLC. So instead of using money on the DLC on the Wii U I buy the 3ds version (which I would have bought anyway meaning I save).

I'll just be over here crying because Skull Kid will never be added in HW.

It's okay, you only destroyed my soul Koei. It's fine.

That's your answer right here.
People like the Ocarina of Time Link too.
EDIT: Or in most cases, OOT and MM.

Yeah that was a letdown, Young Link's half baked moveset didn't help either.

Great Bay is very unlikely...
Tingle is a stage element and it's music is already in use.
It's okay, Tingle's father would take charge whenever assist trophies are activated.



Tingle's father: "Leave it to me!"

:troll:

Both and one last thing as well and it applies to :pichumelee:.

They don't want a character cut from the roster of a past game and they want a Smash game where every veteran returns when really 2 or 3 veterans should stay exclusive to their game.

As I said earlier, he's HW's equivalent to Chrom, highly speculated and requested, but lost to a character that wasn't.

Actually, Chrom lost to two highly speculated characters...one of which is very similar to an existing character.
Just like Skull Kid. :^)

Kinda sad that he isn't in Hyrule Warriors, but on the flip side...Lana's Skull Kid alt Embarrass

Any version of Tingle after Majora's Mask, really.
In that game he is the right balance of weird and endearing.

In everything else he's a greedy **** and occasionally a con artist/slave owner.
Glad Hyrule Warriors has the good model...though personality/moveset wise...eugh.

FYI: Everyone should be amazed and baffled I'm giving him even a little credit. XD

Tingle is my favorite bishie anime character.

Tingle is fine in MM because that game is SUPPOSED to be weird. In WW he's the worst thing.

Lana is pretty hated though lol
Exactly.
Koei created a character sweet and innocent on the outside.
But in reality hunts and kills your hopes and dreams, while bathing in a river of salty tears.

Lana is salt incarnate, and that is why:
One day.
Somehow.
When you least expect it
Lana will be in Smash Bros.
And she will be wearing the skin of your favorite character.

jk for real tho the Skull Kid costume is super cute

You know, I still can't belive that Sakurai acknowledged Goku and Spongebob as requests, maybe he found out about Spongebob from exposure to this,

It saddens me he acknowledged Spongebob and not Shrek.
If he'd said "Goku and Shrek" it really would have drove home the point. "Yes, I know about your stupid ****ing suggestions, Miiverse."

Project x Zone further proves how bad of a job SUMO did on the Sega racing games when selecting the rosters.

Tell me about it...
Hopefully we get a new one at some point with a not awful roster.
The first one's roster was actually good (for the most part) but Transformed's roster was pure garbage. So many unneeded cuts.

Transformed added NiGHTS and Reala which was a plus for me, can't say the same for the rest of the roster (especially the 3rd parties).

Project X Zone is made by Monolith Soft.

You know, the same studio that did the Xenoblade games.

And yeah, they do know how to make a good crossover roster.

Has Shrek even been released in Japan @ PushDustIn PushDustIn ?
As for Spongebob, I've talked about this a loooooooooooooong time ago. The show isn't popular at all. Spongebob is seen as just another cute character. They call him "Bob" here.

Shrek? No one really knows Shrek here. I think his movies were translated it but I've never heard or seen any mentions from any of my students. He's probably too ugly to be popular. If he was cuter...

For those sad about Skull Kid being absent from Hyrule Warriors.
View attachment 72409
Don't lie.
You know you like it. ;]
Actually, I'm more blinded by rage that they gave their original character a costume based on one of the most beloved Zelda characters in yet another attempt to make people like her. Lana really feels like a forced and unnecessary character. Every time I see her it almost feels like I can hear Koei Techmo screaming "We're apart of the legend of Zelda now guys! Please love us!"

I'm going to stop there before I go on a rant, but I will say this- I'd of rather actually had Skull Kid than any of Koei Techmo's Original characters.

I like Lana...

please don't kill me

IMO, she's a very fun character and really brings some charm to the "universes colliding" concept. Without her, the story would feel really serious, and it wouldn't be as, well..."fun".

I knew there was a reason we got along so well.
