Chrono would have a field day with this.
"You get no sympathy in a Fire Emblem discussion." Frostwraith. Just get used to it.
I will collect them all.
Me too.I will collect them all.
Fire Emblem having 4 reps is not a stretch for me, considering the amount of characters and settings the series has.
I'd like 5 Mario reps, actually. I'd prefer if the fifth slot was Bowser Jr., but Waluigi, Paper Mario or Dr. Mario returning would do it for me.Me too.
If Fire Emblem having 4 reps is not a stretch because the series has a large amount of characters and settings, then why is Mario having 5 reps considered over-repping?
Isn't that inevitable? You can't please them all. :/
Only DLC for those every dark horse character would satisfy everyone.
Isn't that the truth? Ike-Sama saw this coming from miles away."You get no sympathy in a Fire Emblem discussion." Frostwraith. Just get used to it.
Sakurai does see Roy as more than just a cheap advertisement, given that he was in promote the entire Fire Emblem series and not just his one game. He was also planned for Brawl and was so until cut late in the game (probably due to time constraints) so I'd imagine that Sakurai still has interest in bringing him back.Vintage Creep said:
Which is why I'm excited. There is a guarantee that someone won't be happy, and I'll enjoy their delicious sorrow.
Roy is the most important lord to the entire Elibe arc (FE6/FE7), there is a reason why he was made commander of all of the armies to Elibe (and Magvel) for the Red vs. Blue DLC arc for FE13. For comparison, Ike was the one made commander Tellius's armies (FE9/FE10). Then you also have the fact Roy is the most popular lord of the entire Elibe arc in general (and if you are going to say his Western popularity comes from Smash Bros., keep in mind he is even more popular in Japan, and has gotten first place in at least two official Fire Emblem polls in Japan, one for the most popular character within his own game, and one for the most popular character for the entire GBA FE trilogy).
But that still doesn't mean all fan favourites are going to get the DLC treatment if they aren't already in the game by default. Which means still disappointed fans. c:
And he sure did.
Ah I see,
And with this, I nominate Habanero as Smashboards' resident sadist.
Only Snake, Zero Suit Samus, ROB, and Pokemon Trainer were surprises for Brawl's roster. Everyone else was very highly requested (the most wanted newcomer overall for their respective series). The only "surprises" was Mewtwo being cut (which would have happened if Sakurai had more time), and Ridley not making it in.
Well I do love burning things with fire. My mindset is pretty psychotic, like flying a kite in a burning puppy field.And with this, I nominate Habanero as Smashboards' resident sadist.
The latter probably has to do with Sakurai expressing concerns about adding too many Mario reps, but you are right about Mario being over represented with a fifth rep being overblown.Arcadenik said:
Wolf prior to Brawl's unveil was more highly requested than Krystal, and after it they were even. Plus in Japan, they far more heavily favored Wolf than Krystal. Ask Starphoenix the next time he pops up.
Well, you can blame Sonic for taking up Sakurai's time and resources that he could have used to re-add Mewtwo, Roy, and Dr. Mario. Really, it all comes down to prioritization. That's why I believe that Lucario had first priority over Mewtwo and Ike had first priority over Roy in Brawl... and why I believe Zoroark would have first priority over Lucario and Chrom would have first priority over Ike in SSB4.
I think DLC potentially negates the whole "time constriction" thing since Sakurai could eventually be able to add them into the game, even if ends up being post-release. DLC could very well end up being a safety net for Smash Bros. veterans that were bumped out due to time constraints, and potentially even involve the return of Dr. Mario and Pichu.
Considering how Nintendo (and Iwata particularly) hates the idea of "disc-locked content", I doubt it will happen for Smash 4As long as Sakurai understands that DLC means "downloadable content", not "disc-locked content". Oooooohhhhhh!!! I can just imagine the collective Internet cries of "SAKURAIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!"
It's not surprising. No one want to go to the social thread in the first place.
Ike's Eruption is based on a magic from FE9. Could happen.
Mario is an interesting topic. Let me say this.
If Fire Emblem Awakening and New Super Mario Bros. 2 are anything to go by... perhaps you are right. I still wouldn't hold my breath for it, though.
It would go pretty much like this:As long as Sakurai understands that DLC means "downloadable content", not "disc-locked content". Oooooohhhhhh!!! I can just imagine the collective Internet cries of "SAKURAIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!"
Which is why I proposed the idea of Chrom using electricity to begin with. Characters in Super Smash Bros. often borrow attacks from other characters, an example being Ness being able to use PK Fire and PK Thunder, which is actually learned by Paula.
