Sukapon will be playable in Smash eventually.....

.....if someone that likes him takes over when Sakurai inevitably retires due to working himself too hard. :troll:

It's not popular enough to get character requests, it's not important enough to Nintendo history, it's not relevant enough like Fire Emblem or Tales series, and ist's not big enough to have more reps than Metroid, Donkey Kong and F-Zero.
Um... Divine. In order for a series to be relevant in Nintendo, I think a pre-requisite would have to be it actually being a Nintendo franchise. Just... no Tales. I know you want Lloyd, but it has to be Pacman. He's the only legendary video gaming icon that we have left. And not wanting to start anything, but having both Tales and Pacman would be totally unfair.

Again dude, Tales is a NAMCO franchise, not a Nintendo franchise. This is coming from a huge Namco fan

Pacman would get in over Lloyd, but I think Lloyd would be the better Smash character.

I guess its also become the cool thing to hate on Ridley. You probably love Anthony Higgs too. :glare:
It's a joke. (and no, the last thing Other M needed was a stereotypical black guy)

get over it, Noah, just get over it. Earthbound is nothing more than a small-time niche series. It's not popular enough to get character requests, it's not important enough to Nintendo history, it's not relevant enough like Fire Emblem or Tales series, and ist's not big enough to have more reps than Metroid, Donkey Kong and F-Zero.
Their lucky enough to have just ONE rep.
Please tell me more about how much you ****ing hate EarthBound to the point that you dismiss it from Nintendo's history entirely. (and you say my hate for Pac-Man keeps me from acknoledging his actual iconicness and previous likeliness.)

And for the last time, Divine Deity.................

TALES IS NOT A NINTENDO GAME! IT'S FROM NAMCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY WE ALWAYS BE TELLING YOU THIS!?

Like what's stopping us from having 2 Namco characters? I mean if Snake isn't getting in because of his one-time special deal, then why can't Pacman and Lloyd? Sakurai only said 3rd parties are hard because its like separate companies. If Namco is working on the project then it would be much easier for them to allow their characters in the game. Seriously POKEMON is more difficult than 3rd parties and yet we got like 5 or 6 of them in previous games.

So yeah, why can't we have 2 3rd party characters from the same company? :glare:

People still listen to Divine=??? :eek:
Also slight irony because you're the person that hates robots in fighting games.
Nah, just generic robots. At least Sukapon's moves and body are more interesting than the stereotypical 1980's R2-D2 wanna be robots we frequently see in most fighting games.

As if Tales would ever have priority over ANY Nintendo franchise. :psycho:

  • You can't have 2 Third-Parties from the same company. HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS (and if we did it'd be Bomberman or Tails not ****ing LLOYD)
  • Sakurai doesn't add just ANY third-party character. Lloyd would be "just any third-party character".
Don't let your preference become your bias like you do with EarthBound. I lmao every time you say EarthBound is not an important Nintendo Franchise just because you hate it.

As if Tales would ever have priority over ANY Nintendo franchise. :rolleyes:

Because Sakurai said that Namco characters aren't going to get special treatment just because Namco is helping Sakurai. If given the option, then Pac-Man absolutely, but it's not likely TWO Namco characters will get in. It'd be cool I'll agree, but not too likely.

Technically we could, but it seems hugely unlikely at least at this point in time and would also probably take the focus away from "Nintendo All Stars" even more than Snake and Sonic did in Brawl.

Also as much as you like Lloyd you've got to admit, he's not exactly a household name like Sonic, Megaman, Mario, Pac-Man or even Solid Snake are.

I'm pretty sure if we got two third party characters from the same company it would be Sega with a second Sonic rep.

And Namco isn't going to get special treatment.

Considering you are an affirmative action sort of liberal, I'm surprised you think Anthony Higgs isn't like a hero of sorts.


Please tell me more about how much you ****ing hate EarthBound to the point that you dismiss it from Nintendo's history entirely. (and you say my hate for Pac-Man keeps me from acknowledging his actual iconicness and previous likeliness.)

There is a difference between:
- What Earthbound actually is: small time
- What Pacman actually is: BIG TIME
I'm only saying what is the truth and nothing but the truth about Easrthbound. Go on. Go ask anybody what they think of the series. Then ask them what they think about Pacman. Which one is more iconic, huh? WHICH ONE?!
I tell it like it is, Noah.

And for the last time, Divine Deity.................

TALES IS NOT A NINTENDO GAME! IT'S FROM NAMCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY ARE WE ALWAYS BE TELLING YOU THIS!?

GODDAMN IT NOAH J. LINDERER I NEVER SAID ITS FROM NINTENDO!!!!!!!!!!! I SAID ITS 3RD PARTY NOAH 3RD PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP SHOVELING **** INTO MY MOUTH I NEVER SAY HALF THE **** YOU THINK I **** OUT OF MY MOUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously Noah just stop right now. Stop give it up, just give up right now. Seriously before you hurt yourself badly Noah.

You guys probably think I'm an idiot for trying to argue with wiggles, but keep in mind: It's incredibly entertaining (for me at least.). I men come on: EARTHBOUND HAVING ONE CHARACTER IS LUCKY!? :chuckle:

If it's annoying I'll try to tone it down a bit. But, it's hard to act serious like you guys.

Metroid is my favorite robot character. He is so awesome!

How bout a certain Fire Emblem character whose birthday is on June 11th.
(You'll get a cake if you get it)
Anna. c: Too bad June 11 is already past.


And yeah, Namco definitely won't get two characters, especially when Sakurai said that they won't get any special treatment.

Yes, let the out-of-control arguments of brat vs. brat begin.
Brat fight? I think you're right at home here.

There is a difference between:
- What Earthbound actually is: small time
- What Pacman actually is: BIG TIME
I'm only saying what is the truth and nothing but the truth about Easrthbound. Go on. Go ask anybody what they think of the series. Then ask them what they think about Pacman. Which one is more iconic, huh? WHICH ONE?!
I tell it like it is, Noah.

What EarthBound actually is: A Nintendo Franchise
What Pac-Man actually is: Not a Nintendo Franchise

Basically no franchise will ever get removed for a non Nintendo one. And EarthBound has more importance to the Nintendo series than Pac-Man. It's one of the most beloved and treasured gems of the company.

Which one is more iconic, huh? WHICH ONE?!
Pac-Man, but guess which one is more important to Nintendo? pssst it's EarthBound!

Metroid is my favorite robot character. He is so awesome!
ROB!

I'm flattered. You seem to really like my full name. Also, please don't scream and cuss. I only posted in bold because you never seemed to respond when people tell you Lloyd is from Namco. So let's all try to be civil here.

It's CERTAINLY more popular and important to video game history than Fire Emblem or Earthbound, AND YET HERE THEY ARE. So I don't see why that's a problem. If it's your problem, then it's your problem not mine. :rolleyes:

  • You can't have 2 Third-Parties from the same company. HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS (and if we did it'd be Bomberman or Tails not ****ing LLOYD)
  • ENOUGH WITH THE MOTHER****ING BOMBERMAN!!!!! :glare: comparing him to Tails is like comparing **** to gold.
  • Sakurai doesn't add just ANY third-party character. Lloyd would be "just any third-party character". If the Game and Watch, Villager, and Wii Fit Trainer can get in, then pretty much anybody can. All bets are off the table. Sakurai can pick and choose ANY character he wants because that's what he does. It's Sakurai. :ohwell: AND STOP ACTING LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT SAKURAI IS THINKING BUT NOBODY ELSE DOES!!! You are NOT Sakurai..... Noah Jenius Linderer.

Don't let your preference become your bias like you do with EarthBound. I lmao every time you say EarthBound is not an important Nintendo Franchise just because you hate it.
Nope, just acknowledging the absolute truth. I speak only the truth about these matters. If you think Earthbound is a multi-millon dollar selling franchise that rivals Mario and Pokémon, is voted the greatest game of all time, and everybody penis knows what the game is because its the most popular and iconic game in history...... then that's delusional and stupid... :urg:


As if Tales would ever have priority over ANY Nintendo franchise. :rolleyes: BORING. You're like a broken record you know? It's getting boring.

Lloyd Irving and Pacman are both great characters that would add a lot more than a lot of other characters in Smash (NESS, Marth, Falcon, Jigglypuff, Ice Climbers, etc etc etc...) So why are you so AGAINST them? Sakurai has done the impossible before ilke adding Snake and Sonic or creating the PKMN trainer or what eventually became Melee. He can do the impossible.

Huh. I can't help but think I started this whole discussion.

But Divine, even if Namco had the chance to have two characters, 3rd Party characters have to be a big deal. We saw this is Sonic, Snake, and Megaman. They are all huge characters and mascots of their respective companies. The next clear choice IS Pacman, and Pacman only. Lloyd is not as popular as any of these characters, and never will be. If there will be any more third parties, it will be Pacman, and that's it. No one has ever reached their level of greatness just yet.

Put it into perspective. Say there's a SEGA game, where it's all of SEGA's characters put in a Smash-like game. And, in the game, there is a Nintendo guest character. Instead of Mario, the one we all would think it would be, we get Kirby. That doesn't make sense. MARIO is the mascot, and the mascot only regardless of what anyone says.

Gods in the heavens, this cannot be, another violently outrageous SaturnGamer64/TheDivineDeity conflict!?!

EDIT: And now SaturnGamer64/Hotfeet444 again? This threads is more than akin to combustion than conversation.
