Roster Prediction Discussion Thread

[andimidna]

All the trophies are either items in the game, or from TP or WW, so there's no way he would have been a trophy. And seeing how most of sticker's were from those 2 games too, doesn't really prove much. The only one from Minish Cap was Ezlo, another extremely important Minish Cap character.

Ezlo>Vaati.

Ezlo for Smash.

PS thanks for doing my work for me

It certainly isn't a wishlist roster, like I said, I don't see him as a shoe-in, I barely see him as likely. There's no personal bias, I'm just not going to jump on the bandwagon. I'd love to be proven wrong, but until then, I think Little Mac will still be an assist trophy.

In that same vein, do you honestly believe that Lip is more likely than Little Mac? Truly?

Ezlo isn't feasible and only appeared in one game, and since I'm doing you're work, apparently you support Vaati now.

Hard to take this seriously when you have Lip on your roster.

 

[andimidna]

Chrom and Lucina seem like better promotion than Robin, and at the same time a sword-wielding duo is pretty damn unique.
I could see this happening more than ever.

After looking at the box art for Awakening, I agree.

 

[Kenith]

I understand that you have a lot of respect for women, but you're taking it too far.

I made a comment on how I didn't like his his old avatar, and he goes all up in arms about it!! He's already on my **** list for picking on Saturn.

Now please, all of you back the **** off.

 

[Robert of Normandy]

I tend to not like rosters that don't have Little Mac, Takamaru, Ridley, and Dixie/K.Rool.

They also had that Monster Hunter cross-promotion.

Edit- And that weird cross-over game. Shin mega... something something.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Whoah, the last few pages was as interesting as the rumor involving a playable Ancient Suit Samus in Hyrule Warriors.

 

[Gune]

Guys guys...guys... calm down.

Do not mistake "Picking on" with "Putting in his place", two VERY different situations that shouldn't be associated with one another. Also, I'm on your **** list? So what? If your opinion on me is really based on how I treat one of the most ignorant members of Smashboards aside from my talk and discussion with everyone as a whole, it's not really worth taking the time to acknowledge.

I've had the misfortune of knowing him much longer than you have, I think I have a much better idea of what he's like than you.

Actually, forget what I said, this one picture sums it up perfectly.

Shin Megami Tensei 4.

Not to be confused with Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4

 

[shrooby]

The original poster is making a text-based roster himself! Oh, Booker, how far you have fallen. This inspires me to make my epic roster of love and passion.
Cuts- Pokemon Trainer
...
7. Charizard
...

Oh, I see, Charizard couldn't just kill its trainer! That monster, it had to kill Squritle and Ivysaur too!

What do you expect out of a ravenous Dragon Flying-Fire type?

Anyways, Charizard was their life-support as it was, he wasn't obligated to let them live.

Anything interesting going on here?

 

[JamesDNaux]

Hard to take this seriously when you have Lip on your roster.

Lip isn't a wishful character, she seems like a pretty likely addition if Sakurai ever decides to go for it, since he apparently likes the series. Lip is mostly my wild card choice for whatever random character Sakurai might chose. Hence why I listed her under replaceable.

Define "interesting," are you interested in sexuality arguments and why it is or isn't okay to objectify fictional characters and whether or not offenders should care? If so, maybe.

 

[Autumn ♫]

That's just... Incorrect. Impa was in LoZ, AoL, OoT, OoS, OoA, TP, SS, and ALBW. Double the amount you listed. Remakes don't count, but if they did... Impa was in OoT3d.
Vaati was the main villain in two Zelda games made by Capcom that didn't sell well. And was the puppet villain of the worst selling Zelda game of all time mad by Nintendo. Probably why he was too insignificant to make an appearance in Brawl. Heck, some people believe they've spotted Impa in the Hyrule Warrioirs trailer. She was even in the CD-i games. Our favorite LoZ lesbian sure gets around. But why I don't think she'll be added is, how could they make her distinguishable from Sheik? If somebody has a moveset, I'd love to see it. She has the importance, but I'm not sure importance is an important factor in choosing characters this time around. And we all know the character selection is important in making a successful SSB. Important, important, important.

Impa wasn't in LOZ, she was in the instructions manual, but not in the game, in Adventure of Link she just shows Zelda to Link not that important, OoT she was severly overshadowed by Sheik same with OoT3D, OoA and OoS should really only be counted as one game and she wasn't important in there either, neither was she important in TP, Impa finally became important in SS, and Impa wasn't that important in ALBW. At least all of Vaati's appearances were important. And yes, Impa can be made unique and so can Vaati. And I guess king Harinkan is important because he's in the Zelda CDi games

Source?

Kirby's garbage block cameo, Lip's Stick as an item, a remixed song in Brawl, an apparent reference in the new Nintendog's stage, and that one time he called the game a "masterpiece."

Lip was once requested to Sakurai, but he was concerned about Lip's obscurity, wondering would anyone know about her if being added. But he called Panel De Pon " a true masterpiece", suggesting people (interviewing him) go and try the game. As seen from Smash which seemingly shows references upon her in some form or another, there might be some evidence that she has some regard from Sakurai.

Taken from Lip's support thread, here's the link to the source they provided.

Talking bad about someone behind their back is extremely rude.
As I said before, he's not as horrible as you guys make him out to be, I like him because he's funny and has interesting things to say sometimes.

If I'm expected to accept your gratuitous avatar then you should not be so mean to my friend.

And for the record, "disgusting" was a bit too strong of a word, what I meant to say is that it made me very uncomfortable. Surely you can't be offended by that.

 

[Godzillathewonderdog]

I think the better question is "is there anything good going on here?" Which I think the answer is obvious.

 

[andimidna]

Here's my roster. A bit of wishful thinking involved, I must admit.

Too good to be true. Final roster probably won't look much like this at all... sadly.


Woah... how did I get back on page 1948? Dang.

 

[Robert of Normandy]

Kirby's garbage block cameo, Lip's Stick as an item, a remixed song in Brawl,

So if Sakurai fancies the series so much, why has it only gotten little nods here and there? You'd think he'd do something more substantial if he loved the games so much....

an apparent reference in the new Nintendog's stage, and that one time he called the game a "masterpiece."

Gonna need a source for this as well. Fair enough. Though the above remains true.

Look at the rest of my post.

Anyway, I was open to Lip, Isaac, and Roy being replaced, since they are mainly placeholders anyway. Any suggestions?

Isaac and Roy are fine, and you're apparently dead set on not including Little Mac, so there's really nothing to suggest.

I wasn't the offended one, you were. And he's not funny, he uses possibly funny things to demean others, namely the Jontron bits that would be funny in any other context than to patronize someone.

And I treat others the way they treat others, and since Noah likes to demean others, I do the same to him. And it's not behind his back, it's behind his block button, where he hides so he doesn't have to deal with people that put him in his place, both in general and in an argument, me and GoldenYuiitisin are perfect examples of this.

He accordingly really likes Balloon fighter, and gave it only a few nods here and there. I guess it's because he just wants people to know about the franchise but think said character wouldn't fit right into the game. And we have even less Balloon fighter stuff in Smash Bros now than we did in Melee.

Can one of them be Shulk?

I don't want to start a Fire Emblem argument, but Chrom seems like the most logical Fire Emblem character. So I would personally replace Roy with Chrom.

Ah.

Guys guys...guys... calm down.

Thank you. I think this every time I lurk here.

No one listens. there's always something dumb that's being fought over.

@ Robert of Normandy , L.A. teachers huh? Well I think shin is gonna find me now xD (nah i'm just messin)

Well there's always Lip to replace, she could happen, though probably not. I still prefer Lip over a random slot, I just can't think of any more plausible characters.

Too much blue. Nah, Awakening was the only Fire Emblem I played and I loved it, Chrom just seems so bland when put in the context of Smash.

Thankfully nobody ever called it by the initials...

No, no, no no. He's not some sort of horrible monster that should be damned. He's a person with thoughts, and feelings. Even when he forgets ours. I've argued with him before. But unlike you, he actually had a sound argument for what he wanted to say, and I admitted he wasn't wrong. I don't think you're quite nice enough to deserve an apology from me.

Well, in the Austin area(from my experience, anyway), it's called Language Arts, at least until High School.
