Roster Prediction Discussion Thread

[Knight Dude]

What's going on? Talking about Starfy? I guess he'd be ok. Nothing too bad about him at all.

Anyway, I might be gone for a few days. So until then I'll post this poll I opened up. Hopefully it'll start to get going soon.

I hate the way my computer won't let me post, I check, nothing appears, I won't be posting til tomorrow.

It's happening to the site overall, it's been happening to me too.

What's going on? Talking about Starfy? I guess he'd be ok. Nothing too bad about him at all.

Can't we just say it's the norm and hide in the nearest bomb shelter?

@ hotfeet444If this is happening with the site, I wonder if it's affecting Alphazealot they did switch to new servers, which I guess are glitchy. But what do I know about the servers.

 

[shinhed-echi]

I'm tired, and I don't have a lot to do at the moment, so I'm going to do this the right way.


Ridley- To be honest... Indifferent. Metroid could use another character, but I'm not THAT into Ridley.

King K.Rool- Indifferent as well. I don't get excited about having too many villains around, I rather see new IPs. But K.Rool likes boxing...

Dixie Kong- I expect her. Can't say I'm excited, but I guess she's my 2nd favorite Kong, after Donkey.

Little Mac- WANT!!! EXPECT!!! And long overdue. Just want this clean boxer, with no flashy moves, just raw physical power.

Palutena- Indifferent. I don't see why one revival makes K.I. worthy of having a 2nd character. Punch Out should have 3 then.

Mii- To be honest... I've had enough "Avatarness" with Villager.

Pac-Man- I'd be mildly excited about it, even if I don't use him a lot.

Chrom- Boring...A completely redundant addition.

Roy- Eh... Cool if he's back. But I'm good with P:M Roy.

Mewtwo- Would be great to have back, if he somehow turns into Mega Mewtwo.

Isaac- WANT! But I don't quite expect him..

Shulk- Don't know much about him. Will probably see him, or see him as an AT. But I rather see heroes with more experience first.

Saki- WANT!!! And expect. Sakurai likes him, there was a lot of demand for him. And the Rail-shooter genre is still unrepped.

Starfy- .... Not interested. But when I read he has water powers... I got mildly interested.

Krystal- There are far better choices, a 4th Star Fox character is pushing it... But for the heck of tradition, I'd give her a chance.

Tingle- I'm completely indifferent. But at least this doesn't mean I dislike him. I just don't know how to feel about Tingle.

Toad- Happy because if another Mario character was definitely getting in, then I believe TOAD was the rightful choice.

Bowser Jr.- I can see him happening and taking over OLD Bowser's moveset, but turned light-weight. But not interested in a 2nd Mario villain.

Paper Mario- No more alternate characters from me. Toon Link is enough.

Waluigi- I see a scenario where he can actually make it in for the "casuals' support". So I wouldn't rage if he was in.

*Looks at Swamp's post*
Nope, no Impa.

But I'll give my response anyway.

-If Impa is merely the 5th Zelda character: Meh.
-If Sakurai gets high and has Impa take Shiekah Zelda's role for the sake of "relevancy":

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

I say this because you fail to acknowledge his abilities and many idiots fail to acknowledge that Starfy had an international release.

An idiot am I?

I know of what Starfy can do. I still think he's one of the more boring options.

You'll use the power of the unknown's illusions to summon a fireball to try and take out the most overrated pokemon of all time? That doesn't sound like an accomplishment aside from smartening up the people stupid enough to use a Charizard online.

@Hotfeet: That's clearly Sakurai in a Charizard costume.
I would have met him at a Pokémon cosplay party, which being an Entei would not cause suspicion.

If you know Starfy 5 exists in NA than no.

 

[God Robert's Cousin]

Snipped and fixed. Wow (I am so mean, and I am seriously gonna get it)Embarrass

2edgy4me

In all seriousness, I joined before him. He's my junior.

But if anyone wants him they can have him.​

I say this because you fail to acknowledge his abilities and many idiots fail to acknowledge that Starfy had an international release.

Noah, I appreciate the help.

But seriously.

Please stop helping.

*Snip*

And I'm fine with all of that. I realize that's your opinion that you aren't interested in Starfy and I respect that. Again, my goal here isn't to say that Starfy will be added this time around and will be worth loads of hype. I just wanted to defend the basis that Starfy does have a place in Smash Bros. and that his addition would be a lot more alike the Villager than Wii Fit Trainer or Mega Man in terms of shock versus hype.

As for why Starfy as a playable character himself would be notable, while we do have characters with spinning moves, nobody would have a moveset almost entirely consistent of spinning. Flat-belly spins, horizontal spins, vertical spins, cartwheel spins, drill spins, ball spins... Everything's better with spinning. That could certainly make his playstyle unique, being an extremely combo-worthy light-weight fighter with the maneuverability of Jigglypuff and the gradual damage of Sheik. I just find that to be more appealing than yet another dude with a sword in Smash Bros., personally speaking.

But yeah, not looking for propaganda here. Just saying Starfy is up there with Isaac, Andy, Chibi-Robo, Waddle Dee, and other underdog candidates. Characters that weren't really expected, but fit in with the cast perfectly nonetheless.

 

[TheLastJinjo]

*Gives you a knuckle sandwich* Next time i'll play doctor with you.

Excuse me for pointing out one's stupidity. Apparently that's all of the sudden NOT a thing here. Also wanna play jump rope with your intestines?

Off topic, but I've recently noticed that the red and yellow parts of Entei's face resemble Staryu/Starmie's arms... A common ancestor?
Hard to unsee.

As for Starfy...
Eh, wouldn't mind. Lots of games in the series. Hopefully he would be able to glide like in the games and use other moves from his games than spinning.

An idiot am I?

Technically ALL Pokemon have a common ancestor:

N3ON? Is that you?

No. You don't command me and rant on me for doing exactly what you or other people are doing. Also call me that again and I'll come up with a special name for you.

Are you gonna call him Robert?

 

[Rebellious Treecko]

Robbie Rotten!

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Robbie Rotten!

Rotten Robbie's Cousin.

 

[Fire Emblemier]

N3ON? Is that you?

It's meeds more of for it to be N3ON.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

So...

Let's talk about Saki.

Thoughts on him?

 

[BluePikmin11]

Not a bad idea, but I still prefer Isa Jo more as a better representation for Sin and Punishment.

 

[Robert of Normandy]

So...

Let's talk about Saki.

Thoughts on him?

He has a gun sword and doesn't afraid of anything.

He's cool. I'd like him to be in the game.

 

[Chandeelure]

So...

Let's talk about Saki.

Thoughts on him?

It's a man,all my life is a lie.

 

[God Robert's Cousin]

No. You don't command me and rant on me for doing exactly what you or other people are doing. Also call me that again and I'll come up with a special name for you.

I said "please"! Sheesh, always with the saucy responses!

And I always call people by the first username I know them as, like calling Xenoblaze "Habanero" or "Hab". Same for calling you "Noah J. Linderer" or "Noah". If you really need to spite me with a nickname simply because I'm not making a special exception for you, go ahead I guess, budd.

 

[shinhed-echi]

So...

Let's talk about Saki.

Thoughts on him?

If I had more time, I'd go more in-depth on him..
But Sin & Punishment is an extremely fun (and challenging) 1st party rail shooter. Developed with the help of Treasure Games who are responsible for a lot of masterpieces.

But Saki... His design is a bit controversial, but his moveset could be EASILY "PORTED" from his own game. Sakurai has an interest in him, and apparently people in Japan do so as well.

I really like him as a character, gives me an Android 17 vibe, plus he uses a Lightsaber fused with a plasma machine gun.
The coolness doesn't stop there for me. As a final smash, he turns into this gigantic organic-mecha with impressive powers.

As far as moveset goes, it would be ideal if holding B would spawn a crosshair on the screen where the player can point Saki's gun and shoot repeatedly wherever it's aimed at.
This would be a good way to reference the rail-shooter genre which Sin & Punishment is all about.

He's also a half-human half-ruffian (aka... mutant monster).

Sin & Punishment has 2 games in the series, both released world-wide. (Formerly S&P1 had released in Japan alone, but that's not the case anymore thanks to the VC).

And that's all for now.

I'll call you Cousin Robert's God

I am no man's god. God is but a mere cousinly name, you fool!

Cousin God's Robert is fine. The Cousin God must have a proper Robert to function, after all.

...

God damn, this is a weird conversation.

 

[Deleted member]

You do realize Misty's a dude, right?

Confirmed in episode 2.

EDIT: So I guess that makes the Saki comparison very apt....

 

[Depressed Gengar]

Misty X Saki confirmed?

 

[God Robert's Cousin]

Misty X Saki confirmed?

But they're one and the same. Wouldn't that ship just be masturbation?
