What if we get Hades instead of Palutena? Hades is awesome.
I used to really go for Palutena, until I began to think that having a Villain would be more fitting with the cast. And Hades is certainly character material.

So, in order to get the topic off of the new style we have, what do you guys think about my roster?
I've said it before, and I'm saying it again: remove Robin for someone like Roy/Chrom/Lucina and the Nintendoji for someone classic like Isaac....and wtf at Cranky take him out for Dixie

So what's going on? I was gone for a few days again. Any new news since Zelda popped up. And since Christmas is over, I changed my avatar. Got a Gohan one for now. Might get a new Spider-Man one soon.

Good evening all, hope you're doing well. My apologies for not being on sooner, but I got Super Mario 3D World yesterday and have been playing the hell out of it, already on the Mushroom World's final level, and Rosalina's my main character by far, she's so damn good. Best aerial control, a built in attack and double jump, she's really helpful for getting stars and stamps. Anyways, looks like I missed a new layout to the site, and it looks pretty clean. Also, I'm honestly surprised how hard the new Zelda is, especially from this day and age of super-easy games.

Pretty good there. Maybe swap Cranky for Dixie. She just seems more likely to me and all. Can't really see many other changes that need to be made. I don't know maybe throw in Isaac or Saki?

Well, I got a new sig.
Not a bad sig. Not bad at all.

Also, the new layout is a little weird. Not bad, but the pages move a little slow for me.

I find Robin to be a much better choice than Chrom and Lucina, and more unique than Lucina, Roy, and Chrom. I just don't see the reason why I should cut Nintendoji for Isaac and Cranky is in due to his importance and uniqueness.

I'm done my decloned Pichu moveset.

Pichu Moveset

Pichu is very fast and is hard to hit.

Neutral B: Ukelele. Pichu pulls out his Ukelele and plays it, sending a wave of music around him like the Barbara the Bat Assist Trophy in Brawl, but it is smaller and weaker. You can press B more times to make him play his Ukelele more. Does 7% each hit with a little knockback.

Side B: Iron Tail. Pichu runs forward, then flips and swings his tail, bashing it into the opponent. He does this all very quickly. Deals 12% with big knockback.

Up B: Agility. This move is similar to Pikachu's Quick Attack, but is much faster and goes a bit farther. This also makes Pichu faster for the next 5 seconds.

Down B: Thunder Wave. Pichu sends a wave of electricity that grows bigger around him until it is a foot away. It will disappear after 1.5 seconds. If anyone touches it they will get paralyzed, they will be paralyzed longer depending on there damage.

Final Smash: Thunder Shock. Pichu shoots two giant bolts of lightning on each side of him, dealing huge knockback and damage.

Wow, this is going slow...so here's some Miiverse stuff:











I am growing to love Miiverse, but maybe that's because I don't read the comments of other members.
I love them!

I would still be on miiverse, but unlike you, I read the comments of my posts :ohwell:. Plus, I'm not much of a drawer, so that option couldn't work for me, tbh.

Not a bad moveset at all, though I'm still not convinced Pichu should come back still. :(
You should make Down-B sort of a shock wave move, where pichu will temporarily create two shocks between him that do multihit damage.

Not that anybody cares, but I think because of difficulties with my avatar, Booker is going to go. I just can't get it to fit the way I want and it's irritating.

Maybe someday I'll bring him back. But I'll be changing it shortly. (sorry that this is so off topic. I OWN THIS THREAD. COME AT ME.)

Yeah, I'm having trouble getting a new profile pic that works, too. So I just went back to my original first profile pic.

But Booker deserves to be remembered! His death so easily to a Big Daddy was so stupid! (I realize he died the same way Jack Ryan did in one of the first Bioshock commercials)

Sakurai doesn't care about slots. If he did, we wouldn't have 3 Starfox characters in Brawl, 1 DK and 1 Kirby rep in melee, and 4 planned Mario characters in 64. Not to mention Pokemon's "six"
What kind of logic is this? Do you have a source that Sakurai doesn't care about slots? Why wouldn't we have 3 Star Fox characters in Brawl? Why are we comparing the first game's plans to now? Also only 3 were planned the first time so why does that matter? Why shouldn't Mario have the most? Also Sakurai didn't even think of Diddy at the time, had Dedede planned, and was skeptical of adding characters from his own franchise, not to mention his only choice was to add clones in order to beef up the roster. Also Pokemon has 4 slots not 6. It has 6 playable characters, but not 6 on the menu screen.

So Toon Zelda was ONLY in the data to fill a void? That doesn't sound right to me.
Why doesn't it? Seems about as plausible as Pichu only in melee to fill the void. Care to explain a better second toon incarnation from the same franchise would have made it alongside Toon Sheik, a made up character? I mean both characters have their merits, but without their filler benefit they wouldn't have made the final cut.

To be fair, you are the one making the argument that he does if I remember the conversation from earlier (correct me if i'm wrong. I'm not trying to poke the bear).

In addition, it is up to the person making a claim that he DOES care about slots. It's called burden of proof. That's like going into a trial and the defense claiming a guy didn't kill another guy, and the prosecution replying with, "YOU GOTS PROOF O DAT?"

It's up to the person who claims that "Sakurai cares about slots" to prove that "Sakurai cares about slots".

Hey, if Mewtwo and/or Roy do come back, will they have one of those character things like the newcomers get? Like "Wii Fit Trainer Weighs In" If so what do you think Roy's would be? Because clearly Mewtwo's will be "Mewtwo Strikes Back"

So here is my take on a 45 Character roster. I'm trying one without Mii this time. Also notice Ridley is absent as there is strong evidence supporting he is a stage hazard.

Please don't kill me for lacking Ridley. It's not as unplausible now as it was the last 2 times, especially when Metroid already got a new character in Brawl.
