I remember how crazy discussion was Pre-E3, like you couldn't go in any of the social threads without it being entirely off topic, and by entirely, I mean entirely. I guess that's a reason I'm don't post as often as I used, every discussion was beaten like a dead horse, and there's little new discussions. This color thing is the best we got in terms of something different.
It's always the same.
Mario/Zelda- Has all the characters it's needs, but having another comes between like 2 or 3 people.
Pokemon/Fire Emblem- Some many characters, that we have debate on who's truly important.
Metroid/DK/Kid Icarus- This character needs to be in so the series feels more complete!
Most of the series with one character (barring Metroid and KI)- They don't need another character, but if one were to happen it would be this.
3rd party- Snake might not return(But most likely still will), Pac Man is are best shot for a 4th 3rd party character, people mostly expect him more than want him.
Newcomers- Shulk, Little Mac, Takamaru, Isaac and etc, are great choices for series unrepresented.
Forgive me if I forget anything, but the point is every discussion is always the same.
