I am thrilled by the overall enthusiasm about that petition, but let's be rational; when has a petition ever meant anything to Nintendo? Not saying we shouldn't support, but we should not actually expect it to work.

Unless Sakurai decides to care enough to pull a Sonic and add Reggie late in development. (Which might shave off some of the decided low-priority characters)

Way to use the worst analogy you could think of, and I never said it was literally a remake, so you are twisting my words.
Yoshi isn't gonna get a rep because a new game came out (which by the way is barely anything more than a remake.
That essentially means you are suggesting it to be a remake.

Let's see Yoshi's New Island has stuff that's giant and a cutscene of Kamek with a Hammer. If you can name something else in the trailer that wasn't from Yoshi's Island on SNES I'd like to hear it. Oh, wait no I wouldn't because this is the roster prediction thread not the E3 Reaction Thread.
That doesn't mean that we haven't been shown anything else that's new you know. Most games don't tend to give us the entire story and all of the battles and cutscenes (Look at Kid Icarus: Uprising for example, we all thought they were showing the entire game when we saw the Medusa battle parts of the videos, but there were still 16 more chapters in the game weren't even advertised until after the game was released).

I'm not expecting it to do anything either. I just thought it was hilarious and thought others may too. Nothing like a good chuckle to help cool down those heated arguments!

I hope you're not suggesting we don't take our Reggie seriously...


We're going to be having a problem if that's the case...
That is such a creepy picture of Reggie...He stares into my soul!

Bowser often becomes Dry Bowser during fights, so I suggested it's quite possible there may be some sort of mechanic where Bowser can become Dry Bowser either through fighting or something else.
I didn't even know Dry Bowser existed til Mario Kart Wii honestly. Plus he's only appeared in 3 non-spin-off games, so I wouldn't say he often becomes Dry Bowser duing fights -_-

It's stupid to have him as anything but an alternate costume, and even then, it's not something that's even needed or warranted.

What's wrong shrooby, is your body not ready?
No amount of fore-knowledge could prepare his body for what will be known as the Reggiest of all character additions: The Regginator.

Note: Do not start turning this into a Reggie thread. The leftover influence of Reggie will spread to the core of us all and will implant itself in our minds now and always. It will consume us forever more, and that's awesome.

I didn't use one of your analogies, so it's clearly not.

and I never said it was literally a remake, so you are twisting my words.
Again the way you worded it doesn't matter. Hell, even if it is a remake doesn't matter. You're showing blatant bias that the Yoshi series isn't important and trying to put "reason" into it by saying just because it's getting a new game it doesn't deserve more representation.


Let's see Yoshi's New Island has stuff that's giant and a cutscene of Kamek with a Hammer. If you can name something else in the trailer that wasn't from Yoshi's Island on SNES I'd like to hear it. Oh, wait no I wouldn't because this is the roster prediction thread not the E3 Reaction Thread.
You might as well lump in "Playing as Yoshi and shooting eggs" into that awful assumption that it's exactly like Yoshi's Island SNES. I wouldn't mind at all if you'd just admit you don't like the idea in your opinion rather than trying to assert your dominance over the Internet.

AEM already summed up everything else. Assuming something that hasn't been released merits nothing more than the "remake" title is the only problem I have (aside from your attitude on the matter). By all means, I agree that a series having a new game around the time of Smash's development does not warrant a new character from said game (much less from "unrepresented" series, just to boost up their total number).
I just happen to actually like/support Kamek.

C'mon, let's be realistic. There's no way in hell the Wii U could appropriately handle the sheer amount of gloriousness that Reggie emanates. It would require another disk layer just to handle his handsomeness.

And don't get me started on the 3DS.

He has become more prominent in a few more recent Mario games, as a bonus boss.

I support him, personally. Though I do agree that he doesn't become Dry Bowser often, that's an exaggeration.

I see Noah got into another argument again.

Typical Noah is typical.

It was then when we all realized the next Pokemon Trainer would be Reggie commanding the four Regis.

This is something I could get behind.

I don't believe I ever said I was better than you, that you're dumb for having Kamek, that I'm dominant, that Yoshi's New Island is EXACTLY like the SNES one, or that the Yoshi's series isn't important. If you have a quote of me saying these things please post it, otherwise your jumping to conclusions and get worked up about nothing. And my point is that having a recent installment does not warrant a new slot for a character, where as that was the reason you posted for having Kamek.

I'm not saying Yoshi doesn't deserve representation, I'm saying it really doesn't need more characters. Yoshi is fine on his own, and there aren't really any characters from Yoshi that should be playable. There isn't a lot to pick from. Kamek can certainly happen, but Yoshi's New Island certainly doesn't make increase his influence any more than Yoshi's Island DS did. I just don't think Yoshi getting any reps is a big priority.

Doesn't the beginning of an argument require the participation of a second person to willingly get involved. It's not my fault if you all decide to freak out about something that's not a big deal or even entirely what I implied, and then blame it on the post you chose to flip out and spam a million posts about.

BTW Isn't debating what this thread is for?

Debating does not mean insulting and ignoring the opposition's remarks
  1. What insults? post them.
  2. Also I can't respond to every post as I'm busy with more than just smashboards, that would take a post almost half the size of this page, each page is spammed with them.

1. You haven't insulted anyone right now. So that's good. Although your attitude is the thing causing problems. It's just mean...
2. So? You have enough time to reply. You're here making all these other posts. Don't make excuses.

Please.

You comment on anything and everything while pretending to be an "expert" while crushing others opinions and subsequently forcing yours down others throats.

Noah, you've insulted many in the past. A few good acts/lack of Insults does not automatically make you a saint.

This is just crazy...how does he not even see it when we quote it and show it to him? It;s just these things man, that drive people over. Like saying what he did about the new Yoshi game then claiming he never said it was just a remake. I mean that's just kinder garden.
Let's talk star fox guys!

that Yoshi's New Island is EXACTLY like the SNES one.
Calling something a remake normally suggests that it is the entire original game but remade with better graphics or with some (normally little) additional content.

1 - Your comments have been hostile in the past.
2 - You're putting people with different opinions than yours on ignore, so you're not taking in everyone's opinion.

Ashley because her Japanese popularity. But yeah realistically, probably Mona or Jimmy T..

yeah thats how i was thinking as well. Ashley seems to be more popular and i think she could have a little more to offer, but Mona just feels more right as the second character for the series.

Eh, it's not totally out of the realm of possibilty for Warioware would get a 2nd rep. The game is fairly popular, is getting a new game soon I believe, and I believe there are a few less popular series in Smash that have gotten a 2nd rep so it's not really out of the realm os possiblility.

As for what character it would be.... No idea, been way to long since I last played a Wario game that I don't remember the characters. lol

Logically, if it were to get a new rep (which I find incredibly doubtful), that spot would probably go to Mona. Or, failing Mona, 9-Volt would get the spot, serving as both a WarioWare rep and a Retro Gaming rep (since he's a Nintendo buff, has all of their hardware and all sorts of retro Nintendo inspired gadgets).

Not sure where all the Ashley hype comes from, personally; she's not even been in the WarioWare series since the beginning, like a good portion of the cast have, nor does she ever have a major role in what little "story" WarioWare has.

Ermmm I have also read the Jimmy T. or w/e his name is more likely then 9-volt due to being the main villain to an extent or something like that? o.O

Jimmy T. is not a villain to any extent - just a dude with an afro who loves to dance. :p He's a charming character though, I could see him in if any of them got in. Again, I'm skeptical that Wario even needs two reps, but if he does, Ashley offers nothing that the other WarioWare characters don't, and has been in fewer games.
