when he should of been saved for Smash 5 instead

No. Robin nearly didn't get in because Awakening was considered too late, and Corrin got in because he fit the bill for 'upcoming new game' and 'character from a very recent game'. By the time we'd have gotten a new Smash, Corrin wouldn't even come across the minds of the team due to Fates no longer being the newest. Instead we'd have gotten 'FE17 or so's main protagonist'

Oh yeah; I thought I remember Robin almost not making the cut due to his/her game being too late (from 2012), so you make a point. It's just for when I think about Corrin, anybody else would of easily replaced him/her at the time during DLC as we already had enough Fire Emblem (the Inklings fill half of the criteria and could of taken his spot regardless, for example). If Smash NX were to have come true and Corrin still wasn't in the game, they could of just put him in then to prevent him from being forgotten if they really wanted to.

Killer Instinct finally finished installing on my PC. Nice I can run it with no problems (though for some reason for the first couple of minutes I could only play as Season 1 characters but that got fixed.)

And I finally got the last bit of the holiday accessories!

As in not a single person bought the thing at all? No one picked up a version in a bargain bin or picked it up online? How is that possible?
Reading through those tweets, seems more like not enough people are buying it to the point where they need to sell in more copies of the game for retail.

Still means the game is not selling as well as it should. Wish they didn't release it early and finished adding in content still being worked on. Hell, selling the game at a lower price would have still been a better choice imo.

So keep the 6 characters we have and tell Sakurai not to add more Fire Emblem characters?

Sully: Ok.
PreCISEly my ideal view on how it should go. No one should have to deal with losing their favorite character, but Fire Emblem needs to take a rest for a. . .while. A lot of the people in the Smash fandom who love Fire Emblem characters won't notice too much if another one doesn't show up but will get really freaked out if one skips town. There was a crudton of Roy fanart for Brawl, and he was pretty much the third most wanted character after Mewtwo and Mega Man at a certain point prior to Smash 4's trailers popping up, too. People will start begging for anyone back that gets dropped.

It probably won't happen that way, but leaving it level seems like the best solution.

Honestly, I never realized that Anna was considered a mascot by some until after I made my Smashboards account. I always viewed Marth as the face of Fire Emblem, being the original and arguably the most iconic protagonist in the series.

Thankfully (or not depending on your position), the only Fire Emblem characters with a chance at being new additions to Smash would be any future protagonist from a game released during Smash's development (unless they're like Chrom :troll:).

I feel like he is the most iconic mostly due to being in Smash Bros.

In the West, probably.

But bear in mind he was the most wanted of the Fire Emblem cast back in the "Smash 2" poll in Japan, was the first protagonist of the series, and was (then) the only recurring protagonist.

Marth is honestly the mascot of the series at this point in time; his beginnings and later appearances in Smash Bros. have always put him in the spotlight and have kept him alive and relevant to this day.

As for Anna, I'd say she's known throughout almost every game (with the exception of one game) and despite being only in cameo roles as a merchant (and thief if you really want to go there with her sneakyness), she is well known for that. Maybe not on par with Marth levels of known, but she's not at the bottom of the barrel. I think it'd be cool to incorporate a merchant/thief based moveset for her and watch other players question where their Falchions, Levin Swords, and Monado's went... before she attacks them silly for all the times people got destroyed by a tipper, a strong electrical attack, or a disjointed hitbox. :)

The only way I would accept Anna in Smash is if she attacks with a giant bag of money.

But yeah, I would prefer Tom Nook doing that.
Now I want Anna and Tom Nook in Smash for battle of the greedy with :4wario2:

I imagine Anna as a pretty diverse character, using many tools and weapons similar to Link.
I envision Lara Croft like that too.

Do you guys think Smash NX will come next year?

All the rumours say that, but yeah... they are just rumours.

I don't know what to think.

Allow me to sum up with what I think about this in a simple quote I just came up with:

"Rumors may spark rumors, but rumors can sometimes speak for themselves". :)

I'm not against more Fire Emblem characters even though I don't play that series.

However, I'd prefer they try something outside of swords (it's not like it's the only weapon/fightstyle in the series is known for and I have a feeling that people who don't follow FE but they do with Smash will only think the series is all about swords).

I've got like 20 tabs open trying to learn how to get homebrew working with little success.


And now my 3DS has decided it doesn't know how to connect to Wi-Fi anymore so I won't be able to access the internet (Necessary for hax)

****ing hell.
:061:
If you can get the homebrew exploit to go through your internet browser( this is all luck and sometimes takes many tries). just install menu hacks afterwards. It's easy to do and then all you need to do to access homebrew is hold down L as you turn the DS on. Hope that helps, if not then I can try and help you fix it.

So, I just watched the first episode of Re:Zero
I thought this was just another overrated so-called savior of the "trapped in another world" premise but just from the first episode I can tell where all its praise comes from
Good thing I decided to watch this before it ends
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS


Not you too.

**** it. Guess I'm watching it soon.
DOUBLE YESSSSSSSS
Do it. if its been said already,then DO IT.

that anime makes my Sundays 10x better.

Also... do you think patches are over?

Sorry for so many questions XD
It's actually hard to say.

To a lot of people 1.1.5 was considered the final patch update before 1.1.6 came in and destroyed :4bayonetta: but that didn't do much overall so I came see one or two more patches depending if Namco-Bandai is still at it.

If you think that's a good idea, that's fine.I'll ****ing cut you but I disagree
inb4 people take this seriously
It's cool, I don't like Tharja either. Henry is so much better than she'll ever be.

Only those with a yandere, stalker fetish actually love her in the first place.

Patches aren't allowed to be over. Not until Zelda becomes top tier
1.1.7

:4zelda:

Up Tilt does 0.5 more damage.



We should be getting another patch sometime this month if their still doing balance patches.

At least, I would assume so, don't we get a balance patch about every two months?
Yes, every two months, the problem is that this month is about to end XD

:secretkpop:ay goooorl
in all seriousness, Zelda is the only character who's always been absolute ****

Good, Sheik is ****ing boring because she's ****ing everywhere. Cloud too
I do have to admit, Sheik tends to be a boring character to fight against since she practically has no flaws as a character. When it comes to Cloud though, he does have flaws that can be exploited unlike Sheik; his recovery is not good if his wall jump is lost and you don't use the Limit Break version of Climhazzard. Plus, he is not good against shields for some reason despite having a sword that should be able to shatter bubbles with no issues. Otherwise, I can agree that he is capable of overpowering most characters with his disjointed hitbox Buster Sword. Maybe he'll end up getting a nerf someday for compensation on these characters?

Yeah, probably, I believe Bayonetta was also the only character who was altered in the last patch, so it may have been them wrapping things up then. But who knows I guess, we could probably get another balance patch on the very last day of this month..... :/
