Rate Their Chances (of Returning) - Day 6 - Mewtwo

[Devastlian]

The original FE Lord...has (what I believe to be) his own stage in SSBB...Immensely strong and thus popular. Yeah, he's there. Ninety-five percent.

Five nominations for Donkey Kong.

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

Seeing as how the FE stage in the trailer is most likely Akenia, I give Marth an 85%.

You know the drill. Mr. G&W X 5

 

[DarkKnight077]

He is not going anywhere at all. 99%

Mewtwo (X5)

 

[Wiseguy]

I'm not going to win any awards for this, but Marth has a 15% chance of returning in my view.

Given Fire Emblem's new global fanbase, the few FE characters who make it into Brawl should be from games that have actaully been released globally, not just in Japan. The way I see it, Ike will most likely replace Marth as the new Fire Emblem representaive. Too me, these two characters are simply too similar for them both to be included in the same game.

I recently posted my argument in greater detail on page 8 of the Fire Emblem lineup discussion forum. Feel free to post a responce:

I nominate Donkey Kong X 5

 

[Paranoid_Android]

Marth: 90%

He could be replaced, but he's the lord of two games, and the lord of the original game. Since he's the closest thing the series has to a staple character, I'm pretty sure he'll stay. Roy, on the other hand, will probably get the axe... From hector, hopefully.

 

[titus]

as much as i'd like to say 90% i think that there is only an 88.8% chance of him returning.

GO IKE!

 

[killbeast301]

Marth gets 50%
Young Link x 5

 

[Iggy K]

I could see him getting replaced, by Ike, but I doubt that will happen, so 85%.

Nominate IC's x5.

 

[Lawrencelot]

Marth: 55%
I think Ike will replace him, Ike appeared in a game that was released all over the world.

Nominate Sheik x5

 

[HiddenTiger]

Marthy-marth.... hmm. I'll give him 75%. On the one hand, he is the series first and foremost character, and it was his inclusion in Melee that led to Fire Emblem being successful globally. On the other hand, the sheer volume of other important FE characters all fighting for the same spot does put a damper on his chances of returning.

Nominate Ness (x5)

 

[The Franchise]

70 %

Ike has a chance of stealing his spot but Nintendo should hopefully still honour the original character of the series.

Jigglypuff x 5

 

[Muffin_man]

I'd say around 80%. If it weren't for Ike it'd be 100%, but with so many contenders for FE spots, Marth's spot isn't as likely as it used to be, but I'd still imagine we'd see him again, as he was both the first FE character in Smash and also the first FE Lord.

Mr. Game & Watch x 5

 

[Kirye]

This is as stupid a question as "Is Yoshi returning?" Yes, yes he is.

Not only is Marth the key character of Fire Emblem, he's the mascot of the series in a sense, even with different lords appearing. Anything else? His castle has already been shown in the Brawl trailer. (Those of you saying it's from Path of Radiance, need I remind you that the Daein castle in PoR was surrounded by SNOW, this one isn't.)

Also, without Marth, Fire Emblem would have still been a shadow game in the US, known only in Japan. Yes, Roy was in there too, but he was just advertising for another japanese game, Marth however was in as the main lord of Fire Emblem. Also, if Sigurd was gonna get in, he would've gotten in melee, as his FE game was before Melee's release, and as the melee poll shows, Marth was much more wanted and popular.

Repeated again, he's not going anywhere.

99%

Nominate Peach x 5

 

[Ferro De Lupe]

Fawriel, we're talking about Melee Young Link (OoT/MM Young Link.)

 

[Destruction_King]

If Sora has a brain between them (which I'm pretty sure they do,) Marth will return. You don't make it to the top of the Melee Japanese poll in order to be included in one game. Now that he's popular in other regions as well (the Americas, Europe, AU, etc.) his chances are high.

Still. Ike and Sigurd don't make it definate.

80%

Nominates the Captain (C. Falcon.) 5X

 

[Ferro De Lupe]

Updated...

 

[Wiseguy]

D.K. gets 99.9% It wouldn't be Smash Bros. without him.

Yoshi x 5

 

[Brawlmatt202]

People have been saying a lot of bullcrap about DK not returing because of the whole "Rare with Microsoft" thing, but I think that's a load of bull.

97%

Nominations:
Ice Climber x3
Mr. Game & Watch x2

like Yoshi is practially given, DK completees the original 8. no way he's out.
~Tera253~
nominate: Roy (x5)

 

[Deleted member]

Donkey Kong... 99.9%. One of the origionals. 'Probably the next confirmed character.
There's no way he won't be in.

Jigglypuff( x5)

 

[Fawriel]

99%. DK and Mario go way back. The new design might belong to Rare now, but who cares?

And thanks for answering the question, Lupe. Although I still find it stupid. A redesign is not a completely new character.. if old Link's moves get changed a little, he might as well be called a different character as well, given that he's from a different game and all.......... anyway!

5x Luigi.

 

[Wrath`]

95%.how are you going to get rid of donkey kong?

roy(5)

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

99%

Realy, Ferro, is saying the chances to return of characters like DK, Yoshi, and Ness even neccesary?

Either way, Mr. G&W x 5

 

[Fawriel]

Ness?
Yess.

 

[Brawlmatt202]

Seriously, guys, there are people out there who think that DK won't get int because he's partically owned by Rare! And we all know what happened to Rare!

What do you think of this?

 

[GenG]

DK is one of the Nintendo's main icons, with Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Samus and Fox. 99% chances.

 

[Framerate]

DK is not owned by rare. DK is owned by Nintendo. Nintendo gave Rare permission to make DK games, cause at the time they had the best grphics stuff going on. He's still owned by Nintendo.

99%

 

[Lawrencelot]

DK: 99%

Sheik x5

 

[Numa Dude]

I nominate Bowser X3 and Falco X2

 

[SSJ4Kazuki]

DK: 99%

Nomination goes to Yoshi x5

 

[Chief Mendez]

94.5% for Donkey Kong. For cerious.

I do hereby nominate Luigi, fivefold.

 

[Brawlmatt202]

DK is not owned by rare. DK is owned by Nintendo. Nintendo gave Rare permission to make DK games, cause at the time they had the best grphics stuff going on. He's still owned by Nintendo.

99%

I thought so, thanks!

 

[Bobby Emerald]

DK, how can he be out of Smash? 99%

 

[Lu-Gi-Oh!]

What kind of question is this? OF COURSE DK WILL BE IN BRAWL!!!

99.9%

 

[DarkKnight077]

99% He will make it..Of course. Mewtwo(x5).

 

[digifreak642]

The only unconfirmed character that has a higher chance is Yoshi, since he already has a stage.

99.99% for our tie wearing Kong.

Nominate Roy x5.

 

[Diddy Kong]

99.99999%

Donkey Kong WILL make it to Brawl. No doubt. He's NOT owned by Rare, and neither are all other Donkey Kong related characters except from a few like TipTup, Conker and Banjo which most of you even don't know. DK will be in Brawl, and hopefully have a bigger shield, a LITTLE bit more speed and less lag.

I nominate Sheik x5 cause I'm looking forward rating her... *DUM DUM DUUUUUUUUUUUUM*

 

[Iggy K]

Yoshi's the only one more likely, 99.99%.

Nominate IC's x4, Ness x1.

 

[Lord_Deathborne]

No way Sakurai is going to repeat his mistake for a third time. DK's out, simple as that... 0.001%[/BS]

Honestly... DK is one of the characters that are absolutely not going anywhere. I mean in DK's case, to not include him would be basically spitting upon an entire era of Nintendo's history as well as Miyamoto's career. It simply can't happen and it won't happen... A 99.999% for the big ape returning.

I nominate C. Falcon 5x.

 

[HiddenTiger]

Two words. Donkey. Kong. Nothing else really needs to be said, you know? 99% chance of returning.

Nominate Ness (x5)
