Hating Pac-Man also means you don't predict him even if he's clearly on you list of "Biggest Newcomer Predictions"
Do you legitimately hate Pac-Man or are you just tired of the abundance of requests he gets regarding Smash Bros 4?

Morbid stahp my pokemon gland is getting jigglypuff poisoning.
Don't worry, I have a full heal. :p

Copying moves from NES games sounds like copying moves from other characters playable in Smash? How did you come to that conclusion. You basically just said: "No he wouldn't, he would do this thing."

And Here are moves he can have: Excite Bike, Balloon Helmet, Table Tennis, Hammer (from Donkey Kong), Bug Spray (from Donkey Kong 3), like I said: Anything from an NES title.
Excite Bike? Wario got that covered.
Balloon Helmet? Villager has it.
Table Tennis? Peach could do it herself.
Hammer? It is an item already.
Bug Spray? Mr. Game & Watch got that covered.

:rolleyes:

Wouldn't want to waste a full restore. Like a Jigglypuff naively grabbing a moon stone only to experience "changes" in her body.

Your always the first to get shot I've seen it multiple times half of the the time you don't even deserve it.
You and Rebellious Treecko teach me that a majority of people complaining doesn't make them right. Intelligent and reasonable people come in smaller numbers. (now, I'm gonna get hated for saying that when I'm not intentionally referring to anybody or calling them stupid.)

uhhh................I guess I don't HATE him, but when you compare him to like like ANY third-party, I'm going to hate that HE is the one that got in compared to cooler characters. Although yes, I get pretty damn tire of all the non stop "WE GOTTA HAVE PAYC-MAYYNN! HE'S THE MOST ICONIC GUY EVAH! IT'D BE SOOOOOOOO COOOOL!!!! (again, not pointing to ANYBODY in particular)

Huh. Didn't know the Pac was loved and popular, all I see is just a lot of "no pls" from a lot of people.

Eh, seems kind of bland, to be honest. There are many characters that can use those kind of moves. Villager has the balloon helmet and lots of characters have hammers, so yeah, no room for something that makes him stand out other than a bunch of random moves.

I swear that Pac-Man only gets requests because Namco Bandai is developing the game.

Only because they don't want Pac-Man to "steal" the spot from their favorite third-party characters.

When were we actually DISCUSSING the N64 Logo!? Do people always see one post and then declare it this on going topic that they want to stop, when in reality they are prolonging this topic that doesn't even exist?

That's totally acceptable, I guess I chose bad examples. Then again, since we have the Balloon Helmet, we could still use the Bumpers and Balloon inflaters (which should be part of Balloon Fighters move set anyway.)

There are PLENTY of other NES games.

I think it's just wrong that we live in an era where Pac-Man gets into a Nintendo fighting game such as Smash Brothers and not Bomberman.

I'm giving him awards for stating such a true statement. It is relevant. Any particular reason you are attacking me?

That can go different directions. People will more than likely go along the lines of they hate the Pac-Man of today and what Namco-Bandai has turned the character into, and to be honest I feel the same way, while others will state that he's a character with a strong tie to videogame history with his legendary arcade game, and sure that was a long time ago, but it's not as if he hasn't had decent games since then, although that's more up to your taste than anything. Pac-Man is a tough case to vouch for in his overall importance to gaming and whether he's really the all-star people classify him as, and I think he partially earns it, but not to the extent people classify him as. That being said, I wouldn't mind his inclusion...as long as he DOESN'T TALK EVER. It's sad when the best rendition of Pac-Man in the past five years was a ****-face riding a mech. :p

Yeah, clearly Namco thinks Pac-Man is a feasible fighter. But, then again Smash is a completely different fighting game

This guy gets it.

Pac-Man was never discussed much in the past, maybe a brief mention at best. But the tides were changed when it was revealed staff from Namco Bandai were involved with development. If that wasn't the case, nobody would be bothering to bring it up.

That was Capcom's doing. And just because Pac-Man fought on a mech in Street Fighter X Tekken doesn't mean he will use the mech in SSB4.... Mega Man was in Street Fighter X Tekken but he doesn't have those moves in SSB4. :rolleyes:

Yesterday I had 6 likes total
Now I have about 40 and 2 followers.

Can someone explain what I did.
Also, last time I checked, the internet hated 13 year olds on forums

I can touch the Ocean from here.
I just hope Pac-Man keeps his mittens.

Pac-Man does not need fingers.




Edit:
Sakurai already said namco isn't getting any special treatment I don't see why people are acting like hes shoe-in.
I'm pretty sure that statement was made against people thinking they'd get multiple characters in. I'm sure Namco got their characters analyzed and I'm positive Pacman was the frontrunner.

If Pac-Man got in he'd use his original design like Mega Man did. He's better off that way because we do NOT need to represent Modern Pac-Man.

Exactly. When Sakurai stated that Namco Bandai was developing the game, it didn't take long until the Pac-Man, Tales of and Tekken requests started appearing.

I stated this before: a company developing the game doesn't correlate to said company putting one of their characters in the game, or else we would have seen a Game Arts character in Brawl.

Pac-Man would be both modern and retro... he has the ability to temporarily lose his limbs and become a sphere (like the arcade).
