37 characters is a bit of a weird number. Not to mention the lack of Smash 4 newcomers.

All the original 12 are still there tough
Uhhh....

Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Mega Man, Shulk, and Pac-Man are all present in that roster.

Fitting with the arcade port theme, the roster needed to be smaller, and a lot of the SSB4 newcomers are expendable.

I do sorta disagree with putting in the whole SSB64 cast, though. I could've seen them omitting Jigglypuff for Charizard or Greninja. Not sure Shulk would make it, either, as big a Xenoblade fan I may be.

I kinda get but my belief was that it wouldn't hurt to bring in the 64 roster and Shulk was like an extra flavor since I went with single franchise reps.

Also I kinda left it as it is due to it maybe having a Super/Turbo/Gold Edition where you can add in a few extra characters but I didn't do that since it would seem unrealistic in adding on to a phase 2 situation.

I went with the most plausible roster that could work in a arcade setting

  • Adding the original 12
  • Bringing in all of Mario and it's sub series except for the newcomers and clone.
  • G&W would be the only retro rep
  • Mostly the popular characters from all the games' series.
  • Didn't want to bloat up the roster with all the characters because an arcade version of Smash would go for something small.
Even then, it looks pretty awful IMO due to Pokemon having less reps than Zelda and tied with Kirby with the 3rd most.

My original plan was :4pikachu::4lucario::4charizard:. But I didn't want to forget the part of the original 12. Probably a bad idea

Ryuga I know what "cream pie" is. I learned it from South Park and Wrestling.

I've been around the park more times than you ever will. I blame high school and ******* friends


I can't help it
Ah, high school days. Those are the days I learned not to assume what an anime is about based the name and that wiki-ing/googling the premise and genre is a very good idea. I've seen some things man...

Been farming equipment in Crazy Orders to try to get a Critical Hitter Brawn Badge, since I found out that the one you get from the 3DS challenge has impossibly bad stats (as a random drop, at least), and that you can add Smash Run Powers to Wii U-transferred characters. I have one of each of the other types of generic badges now, both with far better stats (5/-25 and 17/-38, compared to 7/-40); hopefully it won't take too long. Then again, I've still never gotten a Quick Batter Protection / Agility Badge (but I have three Brawn Badges :glare:).

Also, wow, a lot of new Super Mario Maker news; I'll have to catch up on that when I get home. Bummer that Pokémon don't get their own sounds, but at least they're compatible, unlike every non-Smash game thus far.

Exact thoughts I had.
The roster made sense for a Smash arcade game, but I think Jigglypuff would be out in place of Charizard, and Ike or Wii Fit out for Falco and probably ROB. Shulk would almost kinda make sense because Xenoblade was so popular there. His moveset would be interesting with more intense gameplay, too.

I heard DSP got donated a lot of money for some Project 7 **** and he cancelled it. I've only heard scummy things about this ****. I'd call him a breed of Inafune, but at least Inafune was involved witg good stuff in the past
Which DSP? Dark Side Phil?

Boku no Piko, right?

I don't know, R.O.B and Falco on the first roster is kinda far fetched. Ike is still a popular character in Japan as well and despite the dislike WFT would have been a featured character on the main roster due to sales but I do see your point.

If I take off a few characters I would take the ones you mention but also :4zss::4sheik::4diddy:and maybe :4gaw:.

It's not like there's some hard limit to the number of characters an arcade game can have. Tekken Tag 2 had 44, and each one of those characters has a more detailed model and more animations than any two Smash characters, and it still managed to be one of the best balanced fighting games in recent memory.

If they ever did do an arcade port, I see no reason why they wouldn't bring the entire roster over, especially since all the data exists.

Yep. He's been asking money on Patreon for stuff he's too stressed to do because he does his job f making videos. Doesn't Patreon have a policy against that?
They do on paper but they'll seldom take action. They get a cut remember?

Feel free to report his sorry butt though.

Also DSP did get an infraction from YouTube.

Take that as you will. I stop caring about him since he doesn't learn

Use this video as an example
Be warned it does have NSFW language and offensive content (from DSP though)
This could mean a rerelease with all the DLC content and characters set for later after DLC is done or it was related to all the DLC

A friend of mine caught up with Game Grumps and unsubbed. I asked why he suddenly realized they were bad 'They said Boom was better than SA1' I can't even.
I'm glad Jon left. At least now he's turning out new videos, ripe for making reaction gifs out of.

You know what really pissed me off about Arin? After he makes his first video in years, in the beginning he says something about how he shouldn't tease stuff he's not going to do. He teased ANOTHER Zelda sequelitis at the end of that video

I've only picked up two this time around (Rokka no Yuusha and Ushio and Tora, the latter which I picked up since I've read the manga), I heard this season has been decent though.

I remember watching Kill la Kill with 0% knowledge about it because I wanted to see why it was so popular...
"Okay, cool intro scene, now what?"
*some minutes in*
"WHY IS EVERYONE NAKED!?"

Same thing happened with Madoka Magica, wanting to see why it was so popular, I expected some generic magical girl anime and got a feels rollercoaster

And now I decided to watch Boku no Pico because, apparently, I hate myself, 10 minutes in and I'm already out
