Lucario was going to be in either way, but he did replace Mewtwo.

And I believe Lucario is just as easily replaceable as soon as the new pokemon fad steps in to fill his place.

Barely. The latest Fire Emblem to be released worldwide (Radiant Dawn) outsold the latest Star Fox (Command).

Star Fox is going downhill in sales and quality, while Fire Emblem is going up in terms of sales and staying consistent in quality.

Yay graphs.

Like I said earlier, the reason the FE games stay consistent is because there are more games and the same developer does them.

The Star Fox series differs greatly from game to game because the developers are not consistent. You're stil trying to pin it on Krystal, which is futile.

I'm now awaiting your sneaky edit.

Lucario did not replace Mewtwo. Sakurai fully intended for Mewtwo to be a playable character, however, due to time constraints (and possibly other factors) he was never completed.

Also, I see that flyinfilipino is doing the dc about why Star Fox is going more downhill than an Arwing on Solar.\

Here's another chart to wipe your tears with:

Oooh, trying insults again. *yawn*

I've seen the graphs, numbers, everything; I know it all. You're still evading the obvious issue.
I'm not evading anything.

The issue I am getting at is why the hell a fourth slot should be given to a series for a series that is dropping like a rock in both reviews and sales. Why? Because Krystal is yiff yiffity yifftacular to the yiffxtreme.

You were defending Krystal's honor, or lack thereof. I am sorry if I am being rude to you regarding Krystal. Its that time of the month for me (no not that, the one in which I pwn Krystal and her furry fanbase).

Honor? No such thing.

And don't think you're affecting me at all if you're targeting Krystal's "furry fanbase".

Besides, your swelling ego is fun to watch.

That's alright. You have your reasons. As for me, I'm a fan of a lot of loli characters, not for the wrong reasons, they always seem so underestmeated.

Lip at least started a good series, and I love Panel de Pon's music, its so peaceful.

I don't read the articles you post. I've read most of them up to that one and they all pretty much seem to say 'games with story will die because of the Wii lolololol', which completely ignore the fact that some of the most succesful games are incredibly story driven, such as Zelda and Paper Mario.
SURPRISE SURPRISE. This tells me one of three things.
  1. You lied and did not read it
  2. You skimmed it, meaning you took nothing away
  3. You lack reading comprehension and need more schooling.
Overall, it means you missed the point. HAD you read it, you would understand that "Games with stories will die because entertainment is always changing." I have no time to explain things to ignorant people who wish to remain that way. All you have proven is you are incompetent and/or really stubborn.

The Wii wasn't a step backwards. What are you talking about? It tried to innovate gameplay, though developers aren't really making good use of it... hopefully Motion Plus and games like the Conduit will change that.
It would be a step backwards.

He clearly said he didn't read that article. Reading comprehension?

The idea that video games with stories will die out is ridiculous. You're going to be eliminating a lotttttttt of video games with that.

I think you just need to settle down and not assume that you're always right because you can quote an article.

True, some of the music can be too peaceful, like the Nintendo Puzzle Collection Forest Fairy theme song, I almost just pause the game just to hear the song all the way. XD

No, a lot of people feel the same way as me. All Krystal has going for her is looks. If Krystal was a fat overweight fox that was male, then no one would like Krystal, no one. Pr0n and furries drive 90% of Krystal's popularity. Don't you deny it, because it is factual and actual.
90% of Fire Emblem fans are gay otakus who live in their mother's basements. P0rn and geeks drive 90% of Fire Emblem's popularity. Don't you deny it, because it is factual and actual.

Yes, I, too, can make sweeping generalizations and pass them as fact.

This is unbecoming of you. If you really want to try and play Sakurai, then you must be objective. You must understand all characters are equal because people have different views on them.

He clearly said he didn't read that article. Reading comprehension?

He said he read it but went to the conclusion I say "Games with stories will die because of Wii lolololo"

The reason to quote the article is so people might listen. I would assume you are more likely to understand something from someone with better explanation then me. Many people call it crazy that games with stories will die, but the future is starting to loom that way (although, more so games that act like movies. Other members some how made it games with stories).

One truth is that I always think I am right, but so does 90% of the internet. The other 10% just sit idly by and watch. What I have noticed is most people either miss the point or have really bad counter arguments. The reason I never admit I am wrong is because no one has made an argument that would prove me wrong. That doesn't stop them from "thinking" they have done so.

I post the articles because if someone else can say it better then I can, then why should I say it myself. The other reason is I am a fan of his work and think more people should pay attention. He probably isn't the first or the only one who has said these things, but many people brush it off. "OH, games with stories will always be around." The point was that isn't the case. Many have tried to say that it wont happen, but they ignore when I mention M.U.L.E., a game that was popular in it's day, but fadded away.

Alright. To make you happy I went back and read it.

Guess what? It's bull****. His cycle theory is completely wrong, seeing as arcade's are still wildly successful in Japan. Just because an article (no doubt it's obviously biased seeing as the website was called the wiikly) on the internet said something doesn't make it true.

Seriously dude, stop being stupid.

Actually only 50% of the Fire Emblem fanbase is made up of otakus. :laugh:

I am sorry, but I have not seen anything about Krystal that warrants her popularity other than her physical appearance. I usually try to stay more objective, however, when I see things like people saying that Star Fox deserves four characters, or Falco or Wolf getting cut for Krystal then I simply get agitated.

Yes, you are so intelligent. You disproved the entire argument by saying that Japanese arcades still exist while ignoring the fact they do not exist in the US or Europe and it's never specified that it wasn't.

Now we can add biased to your list. It's obvious you say it is wrong because it came from a Nintendo site. Yes, the author MUST be biased (do you even listen to yourself?)

You'll keep ranting and raving about something idiotic when it would have been easier to read, digest, and make a valid argument. You might be right that the man is a quack; you just didn't prove it.

Looks may be one of the reason people like Krystal. But another may be that she is a fresh breath of air to the franchise. Some may like how she fits in with the team. There are many reasons people have. You could ask them ;)

I'll go ahead and save Chronobound a post by mentioning the reasons I like Krystal.

1. She's a woman.
- Makes the Starfox team more diversified and adds something new to the mix.
2. Gave Fox some more personality.
- You can argue whether it's for better or worse, but I like to see characters get expand on.
3. I like her character.
- It may not be the most developed or the most original, but I like it. I'd also like to see her backstory to be revealed more, possibly in a side-story like Adventures.

Don't worry, I didn't think that it was towards me. It was pretty obvious who it was for.

I said that MOST people like her based off of her physical appearance. Remember when I said that is where 90% of her popularity came from. You're in the minority.

Lol. It was a valid explanation, not an excuse. I don't need excuses.

Besides, if Roy was an overweight fat woman, would you like him?
No, I probably wouldn't. I like Roy for his playstyle and for FE6, if he was a lardo he probably would play very slow (I don't like slow characters, sans Ike) and wouldn't have gotten off his *** to save the world in FE6 due to his fatness. Just like how if Ridley was a big fat green three-eyed dinosaur the size of a sizescaper I wouldn't think he was cool (kidding, Kraid is cool, just not as cool as the Rid man).

Also, I see that you are pitifully grasping at straws. Try again.
