I'm a Pac-Man supporter. And i don't think he'll get in. HOWEVER. That's because i don't think we'll have a third third party character. And even then, Snake is still competition.

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

If he looked like that, switched between having limbs and no limbs, and made those Pac-Man noises instead of talking, I'd welcome Pac-Man with open arms.

Also, after people are stating their age...I'm starting to feel old now. :c

I'm 20 years old, so that makes me one of the older people around here. SO I DEMAND RESPECT! :laugh::troll:
Same here bruh. Except my beard makes some people think i'm a creepy 40 year old man...bad times man.

I'm totally serious. A few years ago when I was a senior in high school, my friends and I were playing a game outside after school (still on school grounds). There were many many people in line to play this game with us. This teacher came out and asked who I was, and a few days later accused me of being a creep. After telling him who I was, he searched the school's database to look me up.

He never came to me again. :awesome:

I think we can all agree that not all franchises are made the same. With that said, I think we should create a "Franchise Tier List," to help us decide whether a franchise is represented correctly or not. I'd say the three deciding factors for a franchises tier should be sales, age, and relevancy.

Here's how I'd put it:

S Tier: Nintendos undisputed champions, advertisements galore.
A Tier: Nintendo's great franchises that almost always do well. Plenty of advertisements.
B Tier: Quite good franchises.
C Tier: "Alright" franchises. They're just franchises, not totally special. Maybe they are good or great but have been dormant for a little bit, or are brand new. God franchises that aren't Nintendo.
D Tier: Dying franchises, extremely dormant franchises. Legendary franchises that died. Alright 1-ofs (even if new.) Great franchises that aren't Nintendo.
F Tier: Completely dead, dormant "one-hit-whatevers", alright franchises that aren't Nintendo

Rankings:
S Tier: Mario; Legend of Zelda; Pokemon
A Tier: Donkey Kong; Kirby; Metroid
B Tier: Wario; Fire Emblem; Yoshi; Animal Crossing; Pikmin;
C Tier: Star Fox; Kid Icarus; Wii Fit; Punch-Out!!; Golden Sun; Sonic
Order no longer matters
C-D Tier (I'm really not sure): Starfy; Xenoblade Chronicles; Pacman
D Tier: F-Zero; Mother; Game & Watch; Custom Robo; Megaman; Rayman; [Dillon's] Rolling Western; Chibi-Robo
F Tier: Ice Climber; R.O.B.; Sin & Punishment; Metal Gear; Castlevania; "Takamaru's Franchise"; Panel de Pon; Tales of Symphonia
No Tier: Duck Hunt (dog)

Everyone's thoughts?

Capcom didn't cancel Mega Man 9 and Mega Man 10... they star the classic Mega Man.... they cancelled Mega Man Legends 3... that game stars MegaMan Volnutt. :awesome:

I can touch the Ocean from here.
The TGS trailer of Ghostly Adventures confirmed the return of the 8bit noises.

Link please!

If you put Punch-Out in C-Tier, I'd put Chibi Robo there as he just got an entry, and has gotten a couple of games in Japan around Punch-Out Wii's release. :)

Who would anyone steal a Wii? That is like stealing someones shoe. Pointless and unnecessary; not worth a lot of money. It isn't like the Wii hasn't been out for 6 years or anything like that. PUFF!

I'm scared of you.

You know what you should do? Edit Jigglypuff's eyes onto your avatar.
I am horrible at everything tech related. There is no way I could manage to comprehend such a task. I have a feeling that it would be quite humorous though.

What sort of criminal plays Nintendo games? We'll actually, Miyamoto practically takes our money, so is he a robber.
My thoughts exactly. That is like somebody stealing a Barbie doll. It makes no sense!

One thing is for sure, any Pokemon that is confirmed will be used as a reason why another Pokemon veteran won't be coming back.

I think if we do get multiple Pokemon unveiled, it will be due to the Pokemon Trainer being confirmed (who is three characters in one).

I am really curious to see who Sakurai picks. We got an entire week of updates to go to find out.

As for more character confirmations after Pokemon X/Y, the only other character confirmation I could see happening in October is for Mii, due to Wii Party U's release during the last day of October in Japan.
Well, I think we all still think it'll be pokemon anyways at least, considering how much hype has been brought up on X/Y.
