Leif did appear in Genealogy of the Holy War, buy only as a party member/unit, if I recall.
The heroes of the game are Sigurd and his son Seliph.
I remember people wanting the Ice Climbers and G&W -- some of the most unique characters in Melee -- to be cut.
Just...why?

For the most part people go off the pattern that it will always be Marth with the newest lord, but even that doesn't make sense considering Roy was going to be in Brawl too. That's the only reason I see when people cut Ike.

I consider Divine the Smashboards equivalent of Voldemort in the regard that his name should not be spoken.

Nobody ever explains Lucario and Ike being cut. They never explain anyone being cut.

Leif also appears in Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 as the obligatory Lord character, with the game basically taking place during the middle of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of The Holy War.

No, the reason is always that they are no longer relevant.
Which is not true.

i feel like im missing out on an interesting storyI can think of a million reasons to leave the boards forever.
That would be implying he was ever able to control himself in the first place.

Long ago, the SmashBoards users lived in Harmony. But, everything changed when the TheDivineDeity Attacked! Only the Moderator, master of all four threads could bann the Deity. But, when the Forum needed him most, he wasn't online.
And then this and that and that and this and such and such, Divine Deity was perma banned.

Thank the stars, I'm not the only one who remembers that episode from "The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy."

I know.
Makes me wonder, though.
When Sakurai thought of padding Melee's roster with clones, he originally considered Leif to be the Marth clone. Why do you think that was?
His game was the most recent FE game at the time, but I don't know if it was because of recency.
Sigurd looks a little like Marth, so maybe it would've made sense for him to be considered first as the clone?

Don't worry guys ,the next week will be interesting and we will have a topic.

Haven't you heard?
Ike's irrelevant now and was only added in cuz he was the most recent lord at the time. We're only getting two FE characters, and I'm pretty sure you know who the 2nd character is (he's inevitable btw)...

Well, Sakurai probably knows we expect something, so he won't do anything.
Unless he knows we think THIS, and he DOES do something.
You know what, I'm tired, I'm going to bed.

That's actually something I wondered as well. I do think that Leif had more to him than recentness (if he was considered). He does stick out more than Sigurd, and he does have importance... Yeah, not entirely sure as well, but it's funny that he subtly sneaked in there (well, as an inspired Marth alt colour).I know.

Your prediction was right last time.

Only reason I've seen people say Ike should (or could) be cut is because of recency, which isn't good reason at all.
Can't wait till Ike gets confirmed so I can laugh at those two guys on Gamesradar again.

Waluigi should be our next Fire Emblem character.

Keeping it going.
I'd be okay with this. Mostly since we'd keep Ike, who was one of the more fun characters in Brawl.

They must pay for giving him and Marth bullets to the head.
I thought you wanted Landmaster. Or was it just for best lord?
Waluigi should be our next Fire Emblem character.

Ike's popular, has a unique playstyle, and Ragnell is a pretty distinct sword in and of itself (sucks if the sword's abilities aren't played up, but if it's for better balance, then I understand). I'd miss his character and his playstyle if he were gone. But then of course there's always the question: "But what if Chrom borrows all or some of Ike's moves?"
Is that really a legitimate reason to cut someone? Would that be a slap in the face for Ike and Chrom fans? Would the cut of Ike cause even a bigger backlash than the cut Melee vets? Why am I asking so many questions!??

How do you guys feel about Captain N as a valid candidate to consider? (Line of Mr.G&W (a system), and ROB (a toy)... Captain N (a show))?
One would be quick to asume he's "4th party" but check this out.
That makes him technically a Nintendo character in his own right.
I've been really tempted of making a thread for him.
And I think I will, at least for fun. :D

So the two highlights are... He was created by a Nintendo staff member (meaning he's Nintendo's creation), and Nintendo itself decided to air the show.

No.
Yes.
Arguably less so then Mewtwo, but still pretty potent.
Because sweet Corn is the only thing that makes it through your rear, how do you think you keep that lovely grin?

Challenge accepted.
The other day, I realized someone that's very likely, but I don't know if it's ever been brought up.
So who is this? This is KOS-MOS from the Xenosaga series. The Xenosaga series was made by Monolith Soft prior to being bought by Nintendo and the property belongs to Namco. That being said, I think she's a likely character a good number of reasons.
KOS-MOS has made numerous appearances in different games include Endless Frontier, Project X Zone, Namco X Capcom, and as a costume in Soul Calibur 3. Obviously, Namco considers her a rather important character to put her in all these different games, especially over Pac-Man. Xenosaga is also a series that's very special to Monolith Soft and it was part of the reason why Xenoblade got its name. With Namco working on Smash 4, Monlith could see this as an opportunity to use KOS-MOS once again alongside one of their other characters like Shulk.
I also think she'd be a much better pick than Pac-Man. KOS-MOS has a wide variety of weapons such as blades, beams, and machine guns to use so she is very flexible with her potential playstyle. Meanwhile, Pac-Man is just a bland character that doesn't seem like he'd have anything that none of the current cast has. Therefore, I think KOS-MOS is not only more likely of a Namco rep, but a much better rep all around for Namco.
