Official Final Fantasy Rep for Brawl

[HollabackRyu]

Bartz FTW!!!!!!!!

You don't have to have played FFIV to be a fan of FF.

And you aren't viewing this very objectively; you know who Cecil is, so you believe Cecil to be very well-known.

But you'd at least KNOW of it. I admit I haven't played EVERY single FF, but I know a bit of each game, including characters...

How would you not know who Cecil is? FFIV was on the GBA, and it's about to be on the DS. AND, even if they weren't, you shouldn't have an excuse, that game is a classic.

 

[A Link to the Snitch]

Being a classic does not make him an adequate SE rep.

Everyone knows who Snake is. He got a significant remake for the GameCube, has had more than a dozen games in its history, and started on the NES.

Sonic, he was Mario's rival, so all Nintendo fans know him.

But Cecil? Even if you grew up with the SNES, FFIV was a lot less noticed than FFVI in the states.

Well... I *would* rather have Terra than Cecil... anyway...

Not everyone knew who Snake was, and, he didn't start on the NES. He started on the MSX2.

And Cecil could very well advertise his DS remake like a certain red haired swordsman did...

 

[RedMage8BT]

I want Red Mage in there. He'd be the best character.

 

[IkexMarth]

Really I can't see any FF characters to be in, but if there was it be BM, Cloud, and Terra

 

[HollabackRyu]

Where did people get the idea that Black Mage has a chance?

 

[Devastlian]

You don't have to have played FFIV to be a fan of FF. And you aren't viewing this very objectively; you know who Cecil is, so you believe Cecil to be very well-known.

And you think objective thought is possible? We really don't know the process Sakurai is using or the one SE would use or the payment method or whatever. This could all hinge on the bias of a bunch of middle-aged Japanese business men. Sakurai could meet with them and say, "OMG I loved playing FFIV during my time off and I received a bunch of requests for Cecil's inclusion" or someone could say Terra would be a good candidate for her worldwide old-school popularity or whatever...

 

[IkexMarth]

He got a whole 2 votes on Sakurai's poll, just like Lucas!=O

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

He got a whole 2 votes on Sakurai's poll, just like Lucas!=O

The only character from FF that has ANY votes is a Chocobo...

Black Mage didn't even get 1 mention

 

[HollabackRyu]

No FF character is on the polls, not even chocobo.

 

[IkexMarth]

Really? I thought there were some. :/

 

[~Krystal~]

Really? I thought there were some. :/

Lol. Hes toying with you.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

I thought the only third party in the polls was Megaman... or am I wrong?

EDIT: Oh, and Geno...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Lol. Hes toying with you.

What the hell are you talking about, check it out yourself

 

[Devastlian]

They're talking about the Melee poll:

[IkexMarth]

I just looked at the Sakurai's poll(the sticky topic) and shows no FF chars.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

Not being in the poll doesn't mean that they're completely out of the question though.

I wish I could've of suggested something back then, when I could...

 

[RegalBuster]

if Cecil was inhis B would obviously be Soul Eater, and up B would be jump.

 

[Cless]

Because Cecil is a Dragoon and everything.

In all seriousness, a moveset for anyone pre-VII would be a pain to make despite VI characters having Limit Breaks, and it is completely ridiculous to think that anyone VII and later is going to make it.

So, Geno and Crono for Brawl.

 

[RegalBuster]

Yeah Geno and Crono should be the only ones, it's funny when people think Cloud has a chance.

Wasn't Cecil a Paladin and Kain the Dragoon?

And you must be kidding me, it's seriously not that hard to make a moveset for almost anyone.

 

[Cless]

There's a distinct lack of moves for people below VII. I'm not saying it can't be done, but it would take a lot of effort to ensure that the made-up moves fit the character.

Also, sarcasm fails over the internet. Cecil's up b shouldn't be Jump because he isn't a Dragoon. Though his FS would Red Wing Barrage if he's a Dark Knight. I dunno about Paladin version though.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

AAAAAH I didn't see the post above you, that would've of changed everything.

 

[Zian]

Bartz FTW!!!!!!!!

Yo sorry but I'm going to have to say Bartz was kinda a douche. He was in my opinion the least interesting main character in the series.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

It would be fun to do a moveset for him though... but I agree, he isn't that intersting.

 

[RedMage8BT]

Red Mage would use ice moves, and should have a Down-B similar to Ness's

 

[Devastlian]

There's a distinct lack of moves for people below VII. I'm not saying it can't be done, but it would take a lot of effort to ensure that the made-up moves fit the character.

Well, they've already done it for 30+ characters already so I doubt they'd have trouble with one more.

 

[RegalBuster]

Cecil was a Dark Knight THEN a Paladin, sheesh.

Also if Cecil was playable i could see his Dark Knight form being playable but not his Paladin form.

 

[Mogrika]

I don't know about a Final Fantasy character, I think they would go with a series with just one main character like Kingdom Hearts or Chrono Trigger.

 

[RegalBuster]

Eww.. I don't want Sora in Crono would be like 100 zillion times better.

 

[Mogrika]

If only Chrono Cross had been on a Nintendo system, I'd love to see Harle in Brawl in any way.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

What about Vaan? Too soon to take his DS game into consideration?

 

[wagnerelli]

I would accept an FF rep if:
-The Rep was Black Mage. This would be a nice little addition to the roster, and he would probably best represent the whole series.
-They had some awesome music to fight to on their stages. Dancing Mad: Third Movement, Battle Theme, Boss Fight Theme(maybe Those Who Fight Further, I mean, MGS4 music got in) , Clash on the Big Bridge, Decisive Battle.

That would get me totally aboard an FF rep.

 

[RegalBuster]

Final Fantasy does have music for if you win a match on smash as well...and if their was a FF rep Airship would be a very likely course.

 

[vesperview]

What about Vaan? Too soon to take his DS game into consideration?

Vaan sucks, I've always considered Ashe as the main character of FFXII, Vaan really has no reason other than "he wants to be a sky pirate and take risks" to be involved with the plot.

-The Rep was Black Mage. This would be a nice little addition to the roster, and he would probably best represent the whole series.

That you think Black Mage represents the whole Final Fantasy series better than anyone makes me question if you've actually played a Final Fantasy game to begin with.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

Just saying... Vaan just got a game on DS. But I do think it's too soon to support him, but I'd rather have him than Cloud, either way.

BUT, I'd still want Terra in before anyone else from FF.

eh its never to soon promote anyone, remember this is Sakurai were talking about, the guy who added g&w simply because he felt like it, Vaan is actually possible due to his recent success, however if he gets in, i think i would kick 13 kittens.

P.S. I agree for Terra for Square Enix/Final Fantasy she was the ****

 

[RegalBuster]

If there was a rep for FF it would be Mog or a nameless Moogle, Chocobo, or Tonberry but i don't think we will see any of them.

 

[El HP]

If they will add a FF character it should Cecil(FF4) or Terra(FF6) they both are very well known in the nintendo community.
