Roster Prediction Discussion Thread

[Mega Bidoof]

I have a couple newcomer ideas that we should discuss.

 

[SuperBrawler]

I was gone for two hours
7 pages were made in that time. . . . . .
what the heck did I miss

Nothing worth of seven pages.

Geodude was elected president, but got overthrown by the Diskun army from Green Hill Zone, and then we started talking about Dig Dug

Personally I like Shulk over Isaac because he simply can offer more. I guess it's more of a prospective of the franchise as a whole then the character itself, though at the same time the idea of the Monado's special powers does interest me.

I gotta disagree. I think Isaac's potential moveset is probably the best potential moveset of any potential newcomer second to only K. Rool.

As for his playstyle... eh... that's where the debate is.

But regardless, Shulk has priority, because his franchise is now a bigger part of Nintendo's present and future.

Wow, I didnt even know that.

 

[YoshiandToad]

I'm just curious, what exactly is GameFAQ's Super Smash Brothers community like?

I heard it was basically like this thread, but multiplied.

King K. Rool doesn't have THAT much potential.

Okay.

Pretend for a minute you are logic.

Now get a friend, give him a hammer, and have him smack you right in the balls.

THERE!!! YOU NOW PHYSICALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT GAMEFAQ'S SMASH COMMUNITY IS LIKE!!!

We didn't read them.

 

[Arcadenik]

Diskun? Diskun? Are we running out of ideas for characters?

Diskun, N64 Logo, Hanafuda, Love Tester, Ultra Hand... yes, I think we are definitely scrapping the bottom of the barrel.

 

[Morbi]

I heard it was basically like this thread, but multiplied.

I honestly think it is the same thing.

 

[Mega Bidoof]

MUH WOMEN MUH (NINTENDO) FANBOYISM MUH LACK OF FRIENDS MUH HATRED OF ALL THINGS NOT NINTENDO

yeah, sounds about right.

 

[TumblrFamous]

Can we please talk about something else?

 

[Arcanir]

ROB was well known in the 80s and because of Starfox
KI sold 1.76m in the NES days which is good
IC sold 1.50 it was also popular

You seem to be neglecting that those games are very old and thus aren't on the radar of the average Joe during the Melee/Brawl days, to casuals they're unknowns.

 

[Mega Bidoof]

Diskun, N64 Logo, Hanafuda, Love Tester, Ultra Hand... yes, I think we are definitely scrapping the bottom of the barrel.

i found some metaphorical barnacles on the bottom of the metaphorical barrel, could that be a newcomer.

Wait, the bottom is what you put in first right?

 

[FinalStarmen]

Between the spectacular intelligence of GameFAQ's "Who is more adorable? Wario, Snake, or Ganondorf?", "List of reasons why a SSB anime would/wouldn't work", and, of course, "Who's likely to be confirmed? Tin Man, Gogo Dodo, or Peewee Herman?" joke(?) threads, I instantly regret my visitation.

I am not trying to single you out, but why do people ask this? If you want to change the topic, change it. It is really that simple.

 

[Arcadenik]

You seem to be neglecting that those games are very old and thus aren't on the radar of the average Joe during the Melee/Brawl days, to casuals they're unknowns.

And yet to the adults who can afford to buy the game without needing their parents to give them allowances remembered those characters.

What do you mean he can offer more? Shulk's moveset would largely revolve around the Monado and its powers, which granted, can do many things, but he has a limited amount of attacks. Not to say Isaac's potential is unlimited, but he has literally dozens of potential psynergy attacks from multiple elements, as well as djinn, summons, and just regular swordplay (in which his sword also can have special abilities and unleash effects).

Shulk's not a bad character, far from it, but there are few characters that have the range or scope of Isaac.

What I appreciate the most about Isaac as far as his moveset potential goes is that he encompasses the playstyle of a magic-knight, a style we have yet to see in Smash. If we even wanted to expand his movepool beyond Psynergy, Djinn, and Summons Isaac also has access to a wide range of howling weaponry ranging from a variety of swords to maces and axes each with their own signature attack.

1st Snake, 2nd It would definitly work and, 3rd Pewee Herman

[KingofPhantoms]

If you could get a Final Fantasy character, who would you choose?

I'd choose the Black Mage.

 

[Johnknight1]

King K. Rool doesn't have THAT much potential.

You could give him an amazing moveset for each of his FOUR major appearances (DKC1, DKC2, DKC3, and DK64).

 

[Morbi]

I could afford to buy the game on my own, I had no idea who those characters were.

Damn it, I told Donkey Kong to keep his barrel clean...

Great Mighty Poop confirmed.

... Really? ¬_¬

Hey man, I'm afraid of dem jail bait. That's why I keep my hands off Xeno the Habby Wabby.

Well, generally topics that start out of huge topics people are talking about get overshadowed. For example, that Isaac/Shulk topic. I need a general consensus that this topic is ****.

 

[Mega Bidoof]

Quick someone try to change the subject!! ILL Make a distraction!

 

[FlareHabanero]

That's true, Isaac has multiple weapons he can wield as well, I just left them out because I find him being implemented with anything but a longsword (even if it has the effects of other weapons) fairly unlikely. But you're right, it is just another area in which Isaac has potential for diversity.

 

[Johnknight1]

If you could get a Final Fantasy character, who would you choose?

I'd choose the Black Mage.

Terra Branford, the main character of Final Fantasy VI.

Final Fantasy VI is the best Final Fantasy game (maybe sans Tactics and Tactics Advance).

Plus, I bet her potential moveset and playstyle could be freaking sa-wheat!!!

I'd have to play the recency card and go for Lightning from 13. I just love her.

I didn't say he had no potential. I'm saying he doesn't have as much potential as you gave him credit for.
