Why does Capcom hate :4megaman:?
At least Nintendo cares to put him in their games.
I don't know. Maybe the last couple of Mega Man games didn't sell well and therefore Capcom thought he wasn't popular enough anymore so they canned him?

I want legitimately good characters that didn't get in just because of who they are. If instead we got kid Marth with Roy's moveset you can bet people wouldn't be happy, but if instead of Robin's moveset ended up on Soren or something then everybody besides the Robin fans wouldn't bat an eye. The Smash fanbase is fickle like that...



This isn't Melee though... Wanting Roy back is like wanting Adult OoT Link back in my book.
Silly Diarmuid, we never saw Marth as a kid in any game :4pacman:

So Can I say Layton fits into that also?
I mean, all of his games are amazing on the DS-3DS
I'd say Layton fits it too, yes.

The major difference between Layton and Ryu is the legacy, I guess. Ryu's one of those characters that's just been around since the dawn of time, haha.

I'd definitely say Layton's a Nintendo All-Star, yes. It's just that Ryu's that, plus a gaming all-star in general. :p Does that make sense? I hope it did.

I'm pretty sure people won't be happy about that either. Soren isn't a major character and doesn't deserve to be in Smash, that's something even most Soren fans will agree to.
Roy was at least a lord in a game and had a notable fanbase.

To each their own, I suppose. I wanted him back, clone or not, and my wish has been fulfilled.

Roy seems to have the same playstyle as Melee. Hey, it makes him different in a way. He has the same animations from Melee, so probably the same way of playing. Marth changed playstyles from agressive to defensive, so having Roy as an offensive swords man that needs to get close to get damage is pretty nice.

But kids mostly remembered him for his cool flames anyway. :roypm:
In a game where shields are strong as ****, Roy's sword proving its worth in the middle is just asking to get punished.
At least he's back.

What is it with people treating Little Macs differently
People that start off as good, respectful players turn into complete defensive spamming idiots that taunt every time they kill you for the sake of just being an asshole.

If the difference between Ryu and Layton is a "legacy" wouldn't that give a Snake a chance to return?
Or even Crash Bandicoot for that matter

Well aren't you just a lover for pure-bred DLC? I would get them if I think I can do well with them.
Hell, I would probably get Hulk Hogan DLC if they made one.

HULKSTERRRRRRRRRRRRRR
I remember when Nintendo had that big Pokemon 10th Anniversary celebration in Bryant Park, NYC. The little ten-year-old me went. They had Hulk Hogan as a special guest.



That was the most surreal part.

I'd kill for Snake to come back. Now THAT was a character with a legacy.


And a great moveset.



I place the blame entirely on what happened with Konami, as it was probably going on behind the scenes longer than we knew. I just don't want to believe they didn't TRY to get Snake back...

Aren't some of his games on mobile devices too? Though yeah, the vast majority is on Nintendo's side, so he's one of the few 3rd party characters I never got problem with if he gets to appear.

Shadow Dragon's prologue and one of his einherjar.

Soren is just an example.

And Roy's fanbase is notorious, not notable. He's a bad character in Melee and widely agreed to be the worst lord in Fire Emblem history for both stats and personality. People wouldn't of ever wanted him in Smash if he hadn't gotten in.

As someone who didn't want Roy at all due to being the biggest Chrom supporter on the boards, here's what I think...


"Why does it ****ing matter?" WHY does it matter why a person wants what they want? Trying to make people seem "wrong" or stupid for liking something just makes you seem like a ****.

I bet people will be disappointed if we indeed get everything we saw today tomorrow, but we don't get anything else. Leaks always make people spoiled.
****, people are always going to be entitled
That's my major gripe with this community
A bunch of whiny idiots that want this and want that, and forcefeed you their opinion as fact
"We need this"
Like goddamn just enjoy the game or play something else

Guys, really? The leak was since about time, you should know about that already. Complain now isn't going to change anything now. Especially after all this hype. It's like somebody dancing and get hit by a car, it's ruin the ambiance.

Leaks are the best thing ever.
Why?
Because it gets rid of speculation; guessing games are rendered useless once a leak is confirmed true.

Seriously.
Ryu is the fighting game character. Plus, fighting games in general probably wouldn't be flourishing like they are now or even exist at all if Street Fighter II never kickstarted the genre.
People may not like it, but he's front and center when it comes to a deserving 3rd party character.

Now speculation starts again, until the next time Nintendo is too naive. :p

I'm not saying Ninty made a perfect game but
Can we nitpick the things that matter
Like how Kong Cyclone is ridiculous and needs to be nerfed

So I get next week off because I don't have to take any exams, and then Roy happens? Oh yeah.

BOKU WA MAKENAI!

In the end I probably won't even use him that much, but it's kind of cool that he's in. And he still has the gold color

Snake needs to come back.
God dammit, why does that word exist?
Why does he need to come back?
My guess is for this sick amiibo here.



I want Snake too, but I don't think he needs to come back.
also that leopard print tho
