And even Sakurai agrees that cuts are ugly. But the thing about cuts is that something can be done about them with DLC, which is why I have faith in the DLC leak.
Because he hasn't been in a game for 6 years. If DK gets a rep which do you think they'd pick?
That still doesn't make sense. "Duck Hunt" is the name of the game he is from. No other character in Smash history has done that. If the character's name is "Duck Hunt Dog" then they would just make his name take up two lines, like Donkey Kong in previous character select screens. The name could be "Dog & Ducks" like "Pikmin & Olimar," but it's not that, either. "Duck Hunt" is nothing more than a title to a game, or maybe even a sport (although in that case it would be called "Duck Hunting.") A dog is not a "duck hunt." Nor is a dog with ducks.
It's fine. I understand there is a lot going on here. I'm referring to this post here.
Lololol. Dixie is a side character in a few games, rool is the main villain in every game but two; not to mention his unique personality and moveset options.I don't see K. Rool happening..not over Dixie. K. Rool just fits the common trope of a heavy villain character and his relevancy is nowhere close to Dixie's
Although it'd be cool to have both
I honestly don't see Bandanna Dee being playable in this one. I think his chance will be in the next one.
His last main game was DK64, too. Dixie's less popular but more practical.
Sakurai was gonna add in Dixie in brawl when K. Rool was more likely. Now Dixie is more likely so it would just make sense.
If Dixie is in, I wonder what sakurai's reasoning will be. Chrom got flak for being similar, but Dixie is as well. I'm curious as to what he'll say.
Well, that's what you think. I think he has a reasonable chance this smash.
I only see a rating for SSB64, Melee, Brawl, and SSB shows up again...but the console says Wii. Where are you getting the ESRB rating from? I'm doing this through a search on ESRB's site and don't see a rating for the Wii U or 3DS versions >.>
DIXIE IS A CLONE!!!So a lot of people seem to be expecting this character select screen to pair with others predicting similar rosters plus Ridley, Mewtwo, Dixie Kong, and the Chorus Kids, such that those characters fill remaining spots on the character select screen.
I don't think that works.
Let's look at Row #2.
We can see that this row is packed with DK, Zelda, and Metroid characters. Adding even one more character to any of those games would cause it to overflow, forcing characters to the next row. Whether we add Dixie, Ridley, or both, we end up with Metroid characters split between Row #2 and Row #3. This strikes me as difficult to believe; that's how in-progress rosters work, not completed ones. The only way to fix it would be if we got either another Zelda character or a standalone character (like the Chorus Kids) somewhere else in the row to finish forcing the Metroid characters out.
So if we assume Dixie and Ridley, plus the Chorus Kids where they'd have to be, we get rows #2 and #3 looking like this:
Donkey Kong | Diddy Kong | Dixie Kong | Link | Zelda | Sheik | Ganondorf | Toon Link | Chorus Kids
Samus | ZSS | Ridley | Pit | Palutena | Marth | Ike | Robin | Kirby
Another problem! By adding two characters before them, the Kirby characters start getting pushed off Row #3. And Mewtwo isn't any place where it'd affect this. The only way to avoid a split Kirby roster would be if the unlisted fifth character is somewhere before Kirby.
But let's roll with that. Let's say that fifth character can show up somewhere useful (say, by being Ice Climbers) and pushes Kirby down to Row #4, so that the whole Kirby series is in a row there. Does that work? Let's see how Row #4 looks now.
Kirby | Dedede | Meta Knight | Little Mac | Fox | Falco | Pikachu | Charizard | Lucario
No matter where you stick Mewtwo, there's no fixing this. The Pokemon roster is split between rows #4 and #5 and there's no preventing it. Not without arbitrarily teleporting large numbers of characters around the screen, that is.
CONCLUSION: It is possible to add five characters to the "leaked" CSS to make it take on the shape of a rectangle. However, if that set of characters includes DK and/or Metroid characters (as in the Ridley/Mewtwo/Dixie claims people like to link to this), Brawl-style CSS scrolling will displace the previous characters in such a way that will result in splitting even more series' character lineups. Therefore, I do not believe the Ridley/Mewtwo/Dixie roster is compatible with the "leaked" CSS.
The rating is at the bottom of the official smash site.
Don't forget, we have this "potential" roster that someone made, where they modified the rows so that all the franchises fit without being split up
Who cares the roster is probably fake anyways... and if not clearly they don't care about putting franchises together when Yoshi is between the Mario group and Dark Pit, Doc, and Lucina are seperate from their franhises.So a lot of people seem to be expecting this character select screen to pair with others predicting similar rosters plus Ridley, Mewtwo, Dixie Kong, and the Chorus Kids, such that those characters fill remaining spots on the character select screen.

. If the leak was made up, then the triangle may have been put there and someone would realize, and come to the conclusion it's the next button, thus, making it look real.
That's pretty confusing lol, but I think I know what you mean...I thinkI think I got why Ganondorf and that gameplay has that triangle.
If this was real and reviewed by ERSB, since they don't play the games they'd probably have to scroll through some pics. That triangle might be the 'next' button when scrolling through pics.
Of course, since I'm #TeamFake, I have to prove some points of it being fake
Thoughts?
Wasn't the image with Shulk and Lucina tampered with by MasterLink?
Yes, that is a fairly believable final CSS. (Insert ICs over any of the five added characters and shift Dr. Mario two or more spots to the left, and I'd say it's completely believable.)
1. Like I said, the triangle could just be the 'next' button for scrolling through the pics.
I think the only thing MasterLink tampered with was the art he posted before the leak, which was just an edited version of the Shulk render in the leak, but... there's so much going on here and I don't know the full story so it's definitely more than possible.
And the "disablad" thing.
Fair point.
It's not as if they're called "Popo & Nana".
That's not even the half of it. A member on another forum suggested that not all the characters will be in the 3DS version on release, but will on the Wii U version's release, and was even bold enough and to even suggest they may be PAID DLC on the 3DS version...
This isn't capcom
The rating has been there for at least a month. The rating has been brought up in the Krystal thread. Jokingly, I think, that "mild suggestive themes" might have been evidence that Krystal was in. I don't want to get into that discussion in this thread, I'm just pointing out that the rating has been there for a while.
Right. I thought about that and so I looked it up and in Brawl they were called "Ice Climbers." I did not think to check melee. Touché. However, the characters are still ice climbers. A dog is still not a duck hunt.

You put in midbus but not fawful? how dare thee.
Here's the information we got plus a roster maker made roster. Try saying that three times real fast.
Nah, it's not the fact it's Melee. In Japan, they don't use the plural form "Climbers"
They may simply be referring to them as the cast of the games.
Maybe he tampered with the battle scene too...a lot of people were saying that Shulk looked like the Brawl Mod one with Ike's moveset. But honestly, this is all speculation...it's just the way everything got leaked has been so...bipolar? Some of it is very seemingly legit but it seems there are more questions then answers :/
