To put in unique Nintendo characters also.Toon Link won't be cut just for the sake of DLC.
This statement is even funnier since almost all Fire Emblem related comments/posts on Miiverse mentions him.
But of course. It only adds to the reasoning why even straight men are gay for Marth.Bonus points if he has a **** eating grin like this:
I would think sakurai would focus on unique veteran's that people know and love first before newcomers. Come to think of it past 2 installment's the veterans were finished first then the newcomer's were added I dont think it would be any different this time.
Low game priority =/= to Sakurai's overall priority. You really think Wolf's being cut then? He is after Jigglypuff in game data, or "low priority" in your words. Jiggs most likely narrowly escaped the Melee cuts(Roy, Mewtwo, Dr.Mario) So the fact that Mewtwo's being considered practically means Jigglypuff is already in going by that logic because it was higher priority during Brawl's development. Not to mention the game isn't being programmed in the exact same order as Brawl so it probably won't be low priority at all. Ness was to be replaced by Lucas in melee, but now that the original twelve have been in 3 smash games now, it's unlikely that they'll ever be considered for cuts again.
I agree. I have a list of characters that have a 100% chance of returning. Here it is:
Why would she be low priority again?
PT could be cut for mewtwo now that he has multiple forms, PT isnt Untouchable by any means and the only Pokemon rep that is, is Pikachu.
And I highly doubt Anna would be chosen.
Jiggs???
True, and I was only talking about the roster in Brawl, though. I wouldn't say Mewtwo is 100%, but he's one of the most likely "newcomers".
She was a low priority in Brawl, so it's likely she'll be low priority again. It's doubtful of her getting cut, but it's not impossible.
Not a good comparison.
Completely agree with this, except for FE:A is inevitable. I prefer the term "most likely". But it seems to that people like to use "Sakurai can do whatever he wants" when they want a character that is less likely. Just admit the situation that is most likely (without resorting to "Sakurai can do whatever he wants"), and then make your prediction regardless of that. Predictions should not be about strictly what we think is the most "likely" scenario. You have to put in your own agency into you predictions, or they all would look awfully similar.
I don't think he'll be cut for the sake of DLC. I think DLC will consist of easy to make characters that people would be willing to buy. DLC's purpose is to get people to buy something after the game has been purchased. Being on DLC after being cut on a roster speaks to a character's popularity.Toon Link won't be cut just for the sake of DLC.
Honestly, though, I think Lyn has a better chance. Lyn is more popular, and is a main character. Anna was an optional character with less popularity. Both of them could easily be unique characters. There isn't much of an argument for Anna over Lyn at point IMO.
Yeah, that's about right. Personally I'd put IC up into the list but I can understand them not having that kind of clout like the rest.
Putting clones in DLC sounds kind of lazy, even if it does make things easier from a programming point of view. Well, whatever.
She was obviously prioritized over Mewtwo in Brawl. One of the most famous and requested Characters in the Poke'mon universe.
Ike isn't going anywhere, he's the second MOST popular Lord in Fire Emblem.
It actually isn't a good comparison because Anna would never be chosen over Lyn.
Marth is somehow more beautiful then the actual women, how does that even work I don't know but I'm not complaining.
I would have too. Personally, most of the characters not on the list I think have great chances coming back, including the ice climbers, but I just tried to create a list of the characters who are the most likely to return. After all, Sakurai just said that they're having difficulties. It doesn't mean he's not going to just trash the character, he'll try to get them in.
The most important tip...
I agree she is slightly relevant again, but anything could happen. But there's still a chance she can get dropped (It'd be pretty stupid). I'd put her chances at 80 or 85%.
And Sheik vs. Impa!!!! Never bring that up!!!!!!
Whatever dude, it's a significant weapon and it's a canon ability of his. There's nothing saying he can't have a moveset adapted in Smash where he uses both swords and axes, especially considering all the creative freedom Sakurai takes in Smash. If I were a dev, it'd be a logical move to make, I don't see any arguments against Ike using axes that hold any ground. Hell, I don't even know why you are arguing this...
Chrom is a rehash of Ike because his design is based off of Ike. Even his personality takes some inspiration form Ike, the proof is int he pudding CHROM LEARNS AND CAN USE AETHER, and ability that was originally exclusive to ONLY Ike. It's one of Chrom's signature moves. So you're telling me, that having TWO characters in Smash who use the same recovery move is "fresh and unique?"
The word you're looking for is "subjective," and no it's not.
Then you and I are gonna disagree in just about everything, and that attitude is probably why you and I will likely butt heads and come to blows until I grow bored of arguing with you. I don't care if you like them or not, you should at least try them. Saying "I refuse to play X because I don't like that genre" is like saying "I refuse to listen to Nujabes because I dislike Rap." It is a very closed minded and (rather) annoying attitude, and you miss out on experiencing some really amazing and beautiful stuff. Word of advice, drop that and learn to be more open-minded, not only will you expand your vision and horizons, but it will make you a more likable person. Just friendly advice is all. After all, we only live once, so you should at least give yourself the opportunity to try everything once, otherwise you're not really living, just existing.
Guess Marill and Gardevoir are being considered now since they're now relevant.
My God, everytime I read your posts, I want to punch a baby seal.
It's strange, but true. Maybe it's that tiara; it plays with the mind.
Guess Marill and Gardevoir are being considered now since they're now relevant.
Wow. Yeah, that about covers it.Guess Marill and Gardevoir are being considered now since they're now relevant.
Being one of many Pokémon being reclassed with a new debuting type does not make a strong case of "relevancy" like a brand new form and movie does for Mewtwo.
My God, everytime I read your posts, I want to punch a baby seal.
1. Just because Mewtwo was after Jigglypuff in the data doesn't mean that she gets a free pass if Mewtwo is being "considered". For one, Mewtwo is unlikely to be low priority this time due to falling within Sakurai's method of deciding Pokémon characters; by looking at who's the "hot ticket" Pokémon: who has a recent movie, who is heavily promoted, etc. Mewtwo has all of this.
Jigglypuff does not fall into this, the same exact situation as in Brawl. Only thing that's changed is that she's now part Fairy type. Well la de frigging da, so is Marill. And since there was a Marill in the anime that essentially took Jigglypuff's gag of putting people to sleep by singing and puffs up in anger when they sleep through the song in four consecutive Pikachu shorts, guess that means Marill has all the more reason to outright replace Jigglypuff since it is more relevant.
2. There's three sets of normal character data; The higher priority Nintendo characters (as in, the "must haves"), the lower priority Nintendo characters (as in the "expendables"), and the non-Nintendo characters.
Characters within these sets are not "higher" or "lower" priority against a character within the same set. Otherwise, with the logic you're trying to use against me, we would have had Mewtwo, Roy, and Dr. Mario before Toon Link even set foot in Brawl.
So while Jigglypuff was in Brawl and Mewtwo wasn't, that doesn't mean Jigglypuff was higher priority. It just meant that when push came to shove, Jigglypuff was able to be included and Mewtwo was not.
I'm not saying Jigglypuff is sure to be cut. In fact, I don't think Sakurai will cut anyone if he doesn't have to.
However, if cuts have to be made, don't expect Jigglypuff to be safe just because of some fan-created theory about the "Original 12". It will make it all the more painful when Jigglypuff is cut if she's ever cut.
Actually, it does. Your question was asked in terms of relevancy (which implies you already know the answer to why she would be low priority in the first place), stating that she's more relevant due to the Fairy type. I answered with that doesn't give much a case for relevancy, since it just makes Jigglypuff one out of a statsitc, unlike what getting new promotion through a movie (and a OVA, forgot to mention that) and a new form (though might as well say formS at this point...) does for Mewtwo.
I like it. I'm just not sure with 4 FE reps and the inclusion of Bomberman. 9/10Slight Update to Roster 3.0
DLC is added, Idea section is edited, Has new Background.
(Credit to Ariand/AEM for making me the backgrounds for Sheriff, PKMN Trainer B, Lyndis, Neomew, Waluigi, Dr. Mario, 8-Bit Mario, Leif, Eirika, Toad, and Ninten.)
Mewtwo's second form isn't unique from his original form and that does NOT make up for 3 missing Poke'mon each a new type and with their own uniqueness, interchangeable while being controlled by the Main character of the series. Poke'mon Trainer will NOT be removed I can assure you. As popular as Lucario is and I like him more than Mewtwo. He is the one who should be replaced (and by the new Mewtwo). The Poke'mon Trainer is more important as well as JigglyPuff and Pikachu. Lucario is someone who might be DLC if not Mewtwo.
I'd Pay For Ashley or mona DLC! Dr.Mario DLC Would just be silly, but awesome. I'd hate to see 9-volt.Slight Update to Roster 3.0

NOTES:
Neomew - Just like the lab experiment: Mewtwo is a different form of Mew, but not an evolution, Neomew is a different form of Mewtwo. I think in order to represent Generation VI, Nintendo will use Neomew. I see no reason to give Mewtwo and Neomew their own move sets and make them interchangable (as separate characters), because it's obvious the move sets are going to be too similar to each other.
Bomberman - Bomberman has earned it, probably more than Snake or Mega Man. I doubt Sakurai will allow the buyout to get in the way if he sees Bomberman as a character he thinks should be in. Sonic & Snake weren't added because of the company they were from. And though you can count Bomberman as a second Konami rep, it's an exception because he wasn't invented, but acquired by them.
Mii - When you click on the Mii slot, a small menu will pop up and you select which Mii you want. After that you can select the color of whatever body they are given. I predict there will only be 4 colors available. It's also likely they will use moves from Streetpass games, Mii Sports, and Wii Party & Wii Party U.
Starfy - He is one of the most likely reps to make it. I suggest others add him. He's fairly popular, has a WHOLE ton of Move Set potential, and he appeared in 4 GBA Titles as well as a fifth Western Release.
Matthew - I do not have him because he's the most recent Golden Sun. I have him because he has replaced Issac as the main protagonist of the series.
Sheriff - He's basically the equivalent to Ice Climbers. He would also represent the Arcade and is the first Nintendo Game.
Dry Bowser - He's not his own character in this roster. He is either a 2nd set of costumes or simply a skin that happens by something happening in battle.
DLC
Melee Pack:
Pichu - I'd much rather have Raichu
Mewtwo - Either by himself or with Neomew. With Sakurai acknowledging the infinite requests to bring back Mewtwo, maybe he will be in a "Bonus Edition". To make room for another Poke'mon rep.
Dr. Mario
Roy
New Pack:
Medusa - Semi-Clone of Palutena
Donkey Kong Jr - Semi-Clone of Donkey Kong
Isa
Waluigi
Ray
