Roster Discussion Thread (Closed)

[FlareHabanero]

This poll man. Lot's of changes.

Ridley has really gone past K.Rool and Little Mac caught up to the crocodile monarch. Waluigi has risen past Isaac. (WHY WAAAA?!?! WHY!?!?!?!) Roy seems to be falling behind but other than that, it's pretty similar to the last update.

I'm guessing 4chan is working it's magic.

 

[Deleted member]

Is Abe part of the Japanese Liberal Party?

No idea, all I know is that many expect he will fix the Japanese economy, and I don't mean the Japanese either.

The thing is, who's going around slicing people up with swords these days? Nobody.

How about the Zetas, or just about any other drug cartel in Mexico? I'm not gonna post the images here as they are plenty gruesome, but I encourage you to look them up yourself. I can also guarantee you the Mexican Drug Cartels aren't using 'handguns and knives.'

Likewise in the Middle East where there is endless war, no-one is using a knive to get business done.

I'm guessing 4chan is working it's magic.

People can dis on 4chan for being trolls, but they DO take some things seriously every once in a while. Didn't Shorty say he posted it in the General threads in /vg/? That was a wise move.

I know Fire Emblem General hates both Roy and Lyn as FE characters. Well, they don't hate Lyn, but find her overrated, but they do hate Roy because of FE 6. If given a write in choice, most of /feg/ would vote for Hector, and Sigurd.

As for Ridley and Waluigi getting a lot of votes. Waluigi is expected, but Ridley just goes to show that despite all the Jokes about him being too big, many people are just joking and actually want him in. It's like the old phrase, "there's no such thing as bad publicity."

 

[Smooth Criminal]

I've read about the brutality and the terror of the drug cartels of Mexico. I wasn't denying the actual usage of the archaic sword, for the record.

Smooth Criminal

 

[FlareHabanero]

I perfectly understand why the Fire Emblem General would not be fond of Roy (I do lurk there sometimes) since the people there are very hardcore for the series. Since Roy is one of the weakest lords in the series, it makes sense why they wouldn't be fond of Roy that much. Hell, I'm not fond of Roy that much ether.

Which further tells me the only reason why people like Roy is because of Super Smash Bros. If Roy never appeared in Melee, nobody would really give a damn about him.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Waluigi going past Isaac? What is this black sorcery?!

 

[SmashShadow]

How about the Zetas, or just about any other drug cartel in Mexico? I'm not gonna post the images here as they are plenty gruesome, but I encourage you to look them up yourself. I can also guarantee you the Mexican Drug Cartels aren't using 'handguns and knives.'

Likewise in the Middle East where there is endless war, no-one is using a knive to get business done.

The fact is that sword killings aren't something common to the majority of countries in the world. People aren't walking up in stores with swords trying rob people and kids aren't going to school with swords to kill a bunch of people, they're using guns. Half the danger in a hand gun or knife is partly because you usually don't realize someone has one on them. And I guarantee you people have hand guns and knives too in the drug cartels...it just may not be their first choice.

 

[Shorts]

Well, if it's any consolation I defended Roy fans when they were being attacked for "being idiots who like a character without actually knowing him". I mean, it kind of makes sense from their point of view. But they're looking at Roy from a NA FE fan perspective, not a Smash fan perspective.

Ahh, oh well. Though, good luck with your ambitious poll.

The poll is gonna include SSB4 Stages as well. Got Star on board. So yeee~



I've had Chu and Chrono do this, so I figure I might as well. Would love to see anyone else break down these characters if they'd like. Before I get into this, I would like to note ALL of these characters are popular, interesting and relevant enough to warrant play-ability in Smash. This isn't Brawl, and this definitely isn't Melee. We have room to let the little guys in this time.


Megaman [Capcom] 417

Megaman has skyrocketed, and this isn't that suprising. He is the Sonic of Smash4. If Sakurai is bringing back third parties, and wants to include another, I think this character will be the first one he goes for. Unless he had some previous ideas. likegenocoughcough. I mean, it's 4chan who boosted him so even if someone wasn't that big of a Nintendo fan, they may have voted for him and like two other characters. Debates break out about Pac-Man vs Lloyd, or Lightning vs Geno, but no one questions Megaman, and that says something. Personally, don't care either way, but if they're going to bring back third parties I would rather it be Megaman than most other choices.

Mewtwo [Pokemon] 383

Simple. This is the only Pokemon Smash fans can actually agree upon. He's a veteran, he was planned for Brawl, and he's the best choice the Pokemon franchise. Plus, like Megaman, he's freaking MEWTWO. One of Nintendo's big faces should be in Smash. (Maybe like the Miis eh?) Not much needs to be said, because he's Mewtwo. Personally, you can do what you want with Lucario, Zoroark and Pokemon Trainer, but Mewtwo NEEDS to be added.

Ridley [ Metroid] 333

It makes sense that Ridley dropped to third, honestly. He has a few silly detractors who say he's too big. But, more importantly, he isn't anywhere near as iconic as Mewtwo and Megaman. Still, he's been a popular choice since Melee really. Unlike Goroh, his popularity hasn't died, it's still extremely strong. Plus, Sakurai won't be detered by the amount of characters metroid has, since all they have is the two Samus'. I want Ridley just because Metroid should have another character, and there's too many fans to not add him. I wouldn't mind a Firebrand for Smash.

King K. Rool [Donkey Kong] 309

Pretty much the same thing I've said for Ridley. The only difference with K. Rool is he has Dixie Kong to compete with. It's no garuntee at all that we will get one of them, let alone BOTH. I don't see Diddy being edited at this point either, seeing as how Ganondorf is still Captain Ganon. This means it's a competition between these two, completely. I want them both, but I don't think we will get both.

Little Mac [Punch Out] 300

Little Mac is the small franchise inclusion this time around. He's the Olimar of Smash4. Isaac, Takamaru, Shulk, and Nook just do not compare in terms of fan demand. Really, it all comes down to whether or not Sakurai wants to add a boxer. Who knows? His AT acts like a character more than a hazard. Not much to say about this character.

Waluigi [Super Mario] 257

Blegh. He's popular without a doubt. He was an AT, and Doc was planned for Brawl, which says a lot for the Mario characters. Really, he suffers more than he flourishes. Again, this goes for all the Mario reps, with the acception of Doctor Mario. Personally, I'm not a fan.

Isaac [Golden Sun] 249

Isaac is a good choice, without a doubt. His biggest issue is his licensing to me. Plus, he has some competition. Shulk, Saki, Mac, Takamaru and Miis are all good candidates for those few smaller franchise slots.

Palutena [Kid Icarus] 223

She's a fan favorite because of KIU, and the votes show it. Kid Icarus has a plethera of good choices, and she tops the list. It's just a matter of will Sakurai give his baby some spotlight? To me, there is a good chance he will.

Roy [Fire Emblem] 194

Roy, Roy, Roy. He's like a mini Mewtwo to me. He's got the same prerequisites, just on a smaller scale. Which is probably why we see more Roy vs Chrom/Lucina/Micaiah/ectectect. With Mewtwo, Zoroark DOES NOT stand up to him, and really.... neither does Lucario. He's still the smartest choice, and that's ultimately why I'm betting on his inclusion. Because if Sakurai had his way during Brawl's development, he would have been included.

Shulk [Xenoblade] 194

He's the new it boy, and that's definitely a good thing. Xenoblade was released at JUST THE RIGH TIME for him to be included in Smash4. The moveset writes itself, and his futuristic swordsman thing is something yet to be in seen in playable form (I see you Saki AT) in the Smash series. He's got competition though, and he has a lot of proving to do. Those two things could really hurt him.

Ghirahim [Legend Of Zelda] 180

Like Shulk, but possibly even moreso, his moveset was written after the first battle with him in SS. He's got a large fanbase for a 1 shot character. In the past this would have never mattered, because one shots don't mean much when Sakurai still has to add Meta Knight, Dedede, and Olimar. But, unlike Midna, this is a new age. An age where most characters are on the same level. Who knows? He really DOES fit into Smash, and Sakurai may be more laxed on Zelda reps this time around. (By that I mean, he might let a character that isn't Link, Zelda, or Ganondorf be included)

Chrom [Fire Emblem] 170

I don't know much about FE, but I know enough to see that whenever Sakurai goes to add a FE character, the latest one is often the one suggested to him. He wanted to add Leaf, but they suggested Roy. Then we had Ike included when he was the newest addition. I hear he's pretty lame in terms of interesting moves. But I don't know how much that matters really. How canon is Ike in Smash? I think I read somewhere that Sakurai kind of just threw him together. I mean, it looks like he even has an unused Brawl Roy move. His inclusion wouldn't be suprising, but he does have some competition. That's Roy. Roy himself is a clone, so, you can't say Krom being boring is reason enough to not add him. Roy is however, more popular in general. I have mixed feelings about who would win out for a spot in Smash4. My mind says Roy, but... Sakurai's pattern says Chrom. I usually don't pay attention to patterns, but this series isn't Pokemon, Roy isn't Mewtwo, and Chrom isn't Zoroark. It's not nearly as OBVIOUS who should be added. Much more shades of gray.

Bowser Junior [Super Mario] 157

Junior is an interesting character. He's got the clone thing up his sleeve, which is a small plus for his inclusion. Unlike Toad and Waluigi though, he has a decent role in the Mario franchise, and this time around he isn't a new character to the series. He's consistently showing up with the same type of role. Really, he may not be memetastic like Waluigi, or as oldschool as Toad, but he's prominent in the 3D and SM franchise now. Which is something much more solid for a characters inclusion.

Takamaru [Murasame Castle] 152

Hands down the best retro choice. We like him, Sakurai likes him. Retros really don't have any competition besides other retros, and, well, the closest thing next to him is Mach Rider. He's a damn good choice.

Pac - Man [Namco] 145

He blends into Smash damn well. Chrono just showed you guys how easily his franchise can blend with Mario's. Mrs. Pac-Man and one of the ghosts have even raced alongside the Mushroom kingdom crew. He has no problem blending in, and Namco definitely would have no qualms with his inclusion. It's Sakurai who does, and, I think he's made it CLEAR that just because Namco is working on Smash, doesn't mean there will be a Namco rep in Smash. Does that mean there wont be? No. He doesn't HAVE competition. Megaman and him aren't competeing at all. There inclusions are two totally separate processes. Sakurai just needs to be down with adding him.

Geno [Square Enix] 145

Smash's underdog. He's got nothing going for him other than pure fan support. And, it's possible Sakurai has already looked into his inclusion during Brawl (Or it could have been Banjo). Either way, not much going for him other than that. SE is much much much too stupid to ever give us what we want, let alone get a rep in the Smash series. That company, I swear.

Saki [Sin & Punishment] 127

No real reasons to not include him, honestly. He's just got one hell of a group of competition. He's Victini. He's Toad. He's Micaiah. No real qualms, just too much competition, you know? (Sue me for using those characters as a comparison)

Zoroark [Pokemon] 124

Pokemon is an ever evolving franchise. Characters come and go easily. We know this. Zoroark really is a decent addition to the cast. He's Lucario 2.0, in both a good and bad way. He has enough to differentiate himself, and make a unique character, it's just a matter of wether or not Sakurai:
Wants to cut Pokemon (Lucario and PT aren't clones, so not likely)
Wants to add Mewtwo (He wanted to in Melee and Brawl, why not Smash4?)
Wants possibly 6 Pokemon characters (Sakurai won't cut if he doesn't have to, but he doesn't like having too many characters from one franchise either)

Samurai Goroh [F-Zero] 120

Bless his soul. About as deserving as they come. He's just, well.... him. A character who hasn't shown up in a while. A character who most know as "That guy from Captain Falcon's game". That's the problem with your franchise being, well, semi dead. (Still betting SF, Metroid and F-Zero get next gen games) He really, really should be added. It's just a matter of whether or not Sakurai wants to. Nothing more to be said.

Toad [Super Mario] 119

Without a doubt the most iconic character of this bunch, besides Mewtwo, Megaman and Pac-Man. No if ands or buts. His biggest problem is Sakurai himself. I just don't believe Sakurai thinks too highly of him. Not enough to warrent inclusion anyway. He's got a bit of an "importance" problem, but his iconicism, popularity, and prominence really make up for that.

Krystal [StarFox] 119

Another "bless her soul" character. Like Toad and Goroh, she's got the goods, just... there's something in her way. StarFox is a small franchise, and it already has Wolf, Falco, and Fox. Sure, she could be included, but, like Dixie, there is a chance she will simply be passed over. Like Junior she has the "I can be an obvious clone, or I could be completely unique" thing going for her. She had a decent amount of requests Pre-Brawl, which is a good thing I suppose. (One of the reasons I think she shows up as a trophy, and in the codecs) Unlike most though, I dpn't believe her fanbase has "crashed and burned". It's not as big as it used to be, but it is still there, most definitely. But really, that's about it. It's possible, but nothing to hold your breath over.

Dixie Kong [Donkey Kong] 107

She was going to be included in Brawl at one point. This is a GOOD thing. It's definitely reason to keep her in your character pool. Sakurai likes to add characters he's tried to add in prior Smash games. Wolf, Wario, Dedede, Mewtwo, Bowser. She's on the same level as those characters in terms of importance to her franchise. Really, she's got a brighter outlook than most who scored in the 120 - 100 range.

Black Shadow [F-Zero] 92

Meh. What can I say? Good addition? Yes. Competition? **** yeah. It's just not likely. If Goroh is going to have a hard time being included, then Black Shadow is going to be nearly impossible. The only thing I can see going for him is the fact that he HASN'T been an AT, he WASN'T in the Melee intro, and we don't have any sort of opinion on him from Sakurai pretty much whatsoever. That could mean, he's been interested and has been saving him. OR, he don't give two ****s. Either way, he's a decent choice. Just not too likely.

Bandana Dee [Kirby] 74

I think people jumped the bandana waggon after seeing how awesome his spear action was in the latest Kirby game. Yes, he is the forth most prominent Kirby character. No, he is not on par with the other three. No he is not as prominent as Junior. No he is not as iconic as Toad. He's like those two with the Mario series, but much worse off. A great addition, but... not likely. Plus, Sakurai is a bashful man. He doesn't want to overrepresent his series. Which is sad, because spears man.

Mona [WarioWare] 71


Hey, she isn't a Wario Land character.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Habanero: Pretty much what I've been thinking about towards Roy. I'm not particularly interested at him during this point due all the mentioned above. He's the literal Smash Brother, I can give that, but his characterization and reception has gone rather out of whack in both Smash Bros and Fire Emblem. (I though refrain from my final thoughts on him until getting a hold in his game)

It's thus no wonder that there are people who might not like him or aren't entirely excited of the idea to see him back.

Shortie: Might do my analysis as well later on. Maybe we could give one for each as the places change in the poll.

 

[FlareHabanero]

While I do like Super Smash Bros., the prospective of the characters is really out of whack. I mean when I support character, at least I have the nerve to research who the hell they are instead of proclaiming something ignorant like "Oh yea Captain Falcon is the best because FALCON PUNCH LEL". It makes afraid as to what will happen to stuff like Shulk and Takamaru.

 

[Deleted member]

I perfectly understand why the Fire Emblem General would not be fond of Roy (I do lurk there sometimes) since the people there are very hardcore for the series. Since Roy is one of the weakest lords in the series, it makes sense why they wouldn't be fond of Roy that much. Hell, I'm not fond of Roy that much ether.

Which further tells me the only reason why people like Roy is because of Super Smash Bros. If Roy never appeared in Melee, nobody would really give a damn about him.

I can understand it too, same with Lyn. One can have their opinions, but they present factual evidence against both characters a lords. They also go by the general rule of thumb of "just because they were good in your run doesn't mean they are a good character." I agree with the idea that it was Melee and his removal from the roster that made Roy popular for many, but oh well I guess. Different strokes for different folks.

The fact is that sword killings aren't something common to the majority of countries in the world. People aren't walking up in stores with swords trying rob people and kids aren't going to school with swords to kill a bunch of people, they're using guns. Half the danger in a hand gun or knife is partly because you usually don't realize someone has one on them. And I guarantee you people have hand guns and knives too in the drug cartels...it just may not be their first choice.

To be honest, that's an awfully naive way of simplifying things. You try too hard to argue your point of view instead of understanding what I was trying to say in previous posts. By your definition, all Katanas should be removed because of their significance in Japanese history.
More people die to everything else than to handguns and knives. For one, Knives aren't that threatening, as someone who has trained with and defense against them, I can testify this. Second, guns are only a problem because the US congress and republican party are stupid about MUH FREEDOMS. Guns should have been outlawed in the 1920's. Not alcohol. The rest of the civilized world doesn't have the same problem as the US, and the countries that DO, like Mexico, only have the problem BECAUSE the US provides black market military standard rifles to both parties.
Anyway, what the **** are we even discussing anymore? I lost track. Point is, Sakurai's justification is downright stupid, and the people who believe that videogame violence creates real violence and games should be censored are even stupider. American politics need to stay the **** away from my Japanese fighting games. Imagine if feminazis got ahold of Japanese media?... Jesus, how horrifying! Fix your gun problems first America, then go **** with the rest of the world.

Shortie: Might do my analysis as well later on. Maybe we could give one for each as the places change in the poll.

Yeah, that sounds good! :3

 

[Vintage Creep]

Totally agree with ManlySpirit

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Habanero: Oh boy. And it gets even worse when your character makes in Smash Bros... but not in the way you remembered him.
*Glances at Wario and Starfy*


But again it's not a bad thing though if the way the character you support is actually bit unlikeable to you but they have something you support them. And it really matters if you like 'em in some way or another still. I mean, if the fans of Roy (in Smash Bros) found out he seems more "bland" in FE-games, I bet they wouldn't like that and wishes to keep on the first cool impression they got from Roy at the first place (HE HAS THE PHI4R). Depends on the person but you get what I mean. ( I kinda have this relationship with Lloyd... a complete doofus at times and didn't meet my expectations as the hero aside from being damn idealistic. But otherwise cool fella with DUAL SWORDS.)

Just some other good point I wanted to bring out. But anyway, Manly summed it well.

I think that is part of what makes a character great. A personality with flaws. It makes them more human and easier to relate to.

 

[DragonSniperNintendo]

New sword users:

Isa Jo (with the Gun-Sword), Matthew/Adult Isaac (with Sword/Psenergy Combo), and Shulk (Monado [Futuristic Sword with Magical Powers])

 

[SmashShadow]

The only thing I was pointing out was pointing out is that knives and guns tend to be a problem in every corner of the world. I never said I was against guns in smash though And yes, it is sort of an escape but because kids are a target audience for Sakurai as well he's weary of putting something in that will damage the cartoon-like nature of smash in the eyes of parents. I do agree though, America's gun laws are ****.

 

[FlareHabanero]

I think that is part of what makes a character great. A personality with flaws. It makes them more human and easier to relate to.

Unfortunately, Nintendo is a company that is not exactly fond of character development. Even though I do love the company, I'm not afraid to say that a lot of the characters they've designed are very flat, mainly the protagonists. This is especially blunt with Mario, who is very overlooked in spin offs because of this.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

I know, I know. (-lvl); I'm not saying I don't like Lloyd but as a character he's wasn't too mind-blowing to me. (-l^l-);

Habanero: Pretty. Luigi being the dark horse character is because he has much more personality than Mario but doesn't get the fame he deserves. A testamentation that Nintendo will be cruel to you incase you have any sort of character?

 

[Big-Cat]

More people die to everything else than to handguns and knives. For one, Knives aren't that threatening, as someone who has trained with and defense against them, I can testify this. Second, guns are only a problem because the US congress and republican party are stupid about MUH FREEDOMS. Guns should have been outlawed in the 1920's. Not alcohol. The rest of the civilized world doesn't have the same problem as the US, and the countries that DO, like Mexico, only have the problem BECAUSE the US provides black market military standard rifles to both parties.

Unfortunately, the damage has already been done when it comes to guns. If you were to ban guns, law abiding citizens have next to nothing to defend themselves from the criminals that do have. Then of course, you've got the'Muricans that refuse to have anything done about gun control (never understood gun collections). As much as I'd like guns to be gone, they are a necessary evil, and even I'd be willing to use one if I absolutely had to.

I think that is part of what makes a character great. A personality with flaws. It makes them more human and easier to relate to.

This has very polarizing results unfortunately. Most people LOVE generic protagonists and the idea of seeing flaws, ESPECIALLY emotional moments, are complete turn offs. People want these characters to not show signs of weakness for whatever the reason.

Personally though, I tend to find characters with flaws a lot more interesting than those without. Probably why, despite the awkward handling, I LIKED Samus in Other M because her emotional context made sense to me. Of course, I'm more emotionally driven than most guys anyway.

 

[ChronoBound]

Roy seems to be falling behind but other than that, it's pretty similar to the last update.

Roy is basically in the same place as when I last made the analysis for the poll.

 

[Frostwraith]

One logs out of here for an hour and when returns, one finds himself flooded with unread posts...

These double standards are only proving that people are complete morons. When I say
people are morons all the time, I'm not kidding.

Is this really the planet we live on?

Unfortunately for sane persons, yes.

Well, not to get off topic too much but this is something I talk about with my Conversational Students all the time. 90% of the people on this planet are ignorant idiots, point and fact. Sometimes I wonder if the world would be a better place without said people...

Much better, without a doubt.

Most people nowadays have stupid double standards. The main problem is when stupid people elect stupid people as presidents or prime ministers. It's a world of stupidity.

You know what it's said, diseases must be cured before they evolve.

---
Anyhoo, I can also agree with Habanero and Horsetail when some characters aren't perfectly true to their selves in their original games.
I am looking at you, Lord Ganondorf, the Evil King of the Gerudo and Captain Falcon clone.

Also, Wario seems to be more based on his WarioWare games, so anyone who has played the Wario Land games will find the lack of Wario Land references disturbing.

Oh well.

 

[ChronoBound]

l. I mean, if the fans of Roy (in Smash Bros) found out he seems more "bland" in FE-games, I bet they wouldn't like that and wishes to keep on the first cool impression they got from Roy at the first place (HE HAS THE PHI4R)..

The funny thing is that the Japanese FE fanbase actually has played Roy's game en masse (by comparison most of the people who played Roy's game in the West broke the law, so I pretty much throw out what those criminals would have to say. ), and he is among the most popular characters in the series there. FE6 for many Japanese FE fans was there starting point to the series (many FE fans did not play FE5, and there was a long gap of time between FE4 and FE6).

You also have the manga series Hasha no Tsurigi which ran in Shonen Jump, of which Roy is pretty much a bad*** in it that contributed to Roy's popularity there.

 

[FlareHabanero]

This has very polarizing results unfortunately. Most people LOVE generic protagonists and the idea of seeing flaws, ESPECIALLY emotional moments, are complete turn offs. People want these characters to not show signs of weakness for whatever the reason.

People simply want to feel empowered. They don't want to spend hours hearing about how Character A has a horrible life and should kill themselves, they would rather bash in heads using a giant sledge hammer. Basically, playing someone that is a shrimp is not that appealing when you want to feel unstoppable.

Personally though, I tend to find characters with flaws a lot more interesting than those without. Probably why, despite the awkward handling, I LIKED Samus in Other M because her emotional context made sense to me. Of course, I'm more emotionally driven than most guys anyway.

Keep in mind that character flaws only work if it's done right with consistency and relevancy. You got to pace it at a reasonable speed with gradual building for character development in a subtle fashion instead of shoving it down everyone's throat out of no where. This is why I felt Samus in Metroid: Other M didn't feel right.

 

[Shorts]

What character reveal will make you do this? I'm just lookin' to see what kinda characters some of the users I don't know very well like.

I can guess most I bet!

Horsetail: Starfy
Chu: Shulk
Psycho: Geno
Manly: Lyn (Only because I've noticed you like her, never really talked with you about her)
Kuma: Kumatora
Chrono: Roy
Arcade: Toad (But really DHD)
---: Mewtwo (With a spoon)

As for me, Junior, Krystal, and Dixie would get me PRETTY "YYYYYYYYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSS"

 

[FlareHabanero]

What reveal will make me 4chan.org?

 

[Big-Cat]

Either Nook or Kumatora actually, but I need to see the picture instead of 4chan.org

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

^ Yeah, but I still say, japanese had the upper hand compared to Westerners, since they got all that media. (Now that made me think, is Roy's popularity comprised of FE-fans in JPN and Smash-fans in US most of the time? If so...)

My statement applied mostly to Western Smash-fans.

Frost: Exactly. My most biggest and unforgiving critiques towards Smash Bros-series is that it portrays certain things about it's source material in quite wrong way. And that is thought to be "right" in case for many who don't know about it.

I still can't take my heads off on hearing Sakurai hates Starfy or Starfy is too weak to be in Smash just because how he was portrayed in Brawl, the trophies' translation seem pretty incorrect (Kirby-trophies UGH) and Wario Land doesn't exist and Marth/Roy/Ike are the only characters in Fire Emblem-series. (-=___=)

I could come up with more example but these are coming out of my head at the moment...

Shortie: Lip would be more accurate these days but it's not too far off with Starfy as well. Lloyd too now actually. (I'd have triumph over Lloyd's haters or ridiculers)

fix'd?

 

[ChronoBound]

I think that is part of what makes a character great. A personality with flaws. It makes them more human and easier to relate to.

That is why Leaf is one of my favorite lords in the Fire Emblem series (guy in my avatar). He is probably the weakest lord in the entire series, but the difficulty of the game and his own fragility really made you feel his struggle. A lot of the chapters in his game actually involved him and his army running away (escape route) from a much larger army. You had basically no funds, and your main way of getting more weapons for your army was through the "capture" system.

It really felt as though you were fighting a resistance against incredible odds. FE5 is definitely my favorite of the Japan-only home console Fire Emblems (basically FE1-FE5), and I would say its overall one of my two favorite games in the entire FE series.

Guess I am not very vocal on which characters I support, I guess.

I used to have this banner on my signature, so you try to conclude something by looking at my current sig.

Black Knight, that takes me back to 2009. Haven't seen much love for him in a LONG while.

@Shorts
I'd be way more energetic than that.

Hmm... well I will say that there are three particular characters that would make me pretty excited.

Takamaru
Dillon
Palutena

Everything else would feel more like a bonus to me. But I will say there is a lot of character I would like, but those three interest me the most at the moment.

Chrono: Roy

I would be far more excited about Ridley considering I have wanted him in Smash Bros. since 1999, and he has been my number one most wanted character for Smash Bros. ever since the E3 2001 trailer. I would also be more excited about Mega Man than Roy. The only four characters this time I would personally like to see (or rather get me hyped) that were not in Brawl are Ridley, Mega Man, Mewtwo, and Roy.

The reason I am so vocal about Roy, is as I said earlier, most Roy fans are quiet and don't speak up (or perhaps don't know what counter-arguments to use) when haters talking trash.

 

[Frostwraith]

For me, it would be Mewtwo, Roy and Dark Pit.

Black Knight would be a great surprise for me, as he is in my top 5 Nintendo villains along with Ganondorf, Ghirahim, Hades and Ghetsis.

 

[Vintage Creep]

Paper Mario
Professor Layton
Yoshimitsu
Ridley
Deathborn

In order of "whooooness".

---: Mewtwo (With a spoon)

As for me, Junior, Krystal, and Dixie would get me PRETTY "YYYYYYYYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSS"

I'd be good with or without the spoon. Mewtwo, Palutena, and Goroh would get me pretty excited (that and no cuts).

Didn't know you were a Junior fan Shortie.

I'd just do this if I saw any of my wanted characters in:
