Speculation God, GOML
I don't understand why Sakurai revealed Sheik on the Brawl Dojo so darn late.
You'd think she would've been shown off a week or a month at most after Zelda.

The only reason I can think of is that Sakurai wanted to keep the fans guessing until it was almost time for Brawl's release.

Exactly. That is why I doubt the precedent will influence her reveal for Smash 4. There really isn't anything that is keeping fans guessing, most are ignorant enough to assume that Phantom is an Assist Trophy which entails an "open and closed" mentality.

So let's say Sakurai plans 5 Zelda reps and the fifth is unique. Do you think the character would still end up not making the cut?

I do think the logic for Impa as from Diddy Kong is astounding.

Not only would she not add anything that Sheik can't already do, but Sheik was based off of her anyway. Impa isn't nearly as important as many people make her out to be.

In OoT, she plays essentially the same role as 6 others do as a sage. That cameo appearance in the painted glass in Wind Waker? All the sages were in there. It's nothing special.

The only thing she has going for her is Skyward Sword. You could say the same for Sheik in OoT, but at the same time, Sheik was included because of the perfect opportunity to create a phenomenal moveset for Zelda. Phenomenal in uniqueness, not necessarily execution.

Impa is honestly nothing special.

Also just noticed I have 2500 posts. Yippee

You know, sometimes when I break these things down, I feel like I should either make my own thread like Chrono's, or do some sort of video series. But i'm too friggin lazy. Blah.
How Diddy reacts to this pwning argument on the forum: :joyful:

Lol, this is gold. :laugh:
What do you mean by "gold".
If it is a sarcastic statement towards me, let me inform you that I am not an adult, and I have the right to waste my life on the computer and look back at life in 10 years and wish I did more with life, thank you very much.

This is why he is hip hoppity fly up in that biznitch, word to my brothers of African descent. That is what is up, homie dog. :awesome:
For some reason, while I work I've been calling all of my co-workers "homie". So everytime I see somebody walk by I'm all like, "SUP HOMIE"

It's great. I look like an idiot, but it's great.

I wonder if Pac-Man's chomp will become the new "famous Falcon Punch" when he's revealed. :chuckle:
No. The fact that you even wonder that is wrong. You need to think things through. Falcon Punch is special, where as Pac-Man chomping stuff isn't.
