And yet somehow I win in the end.Victory of Trolling.
.....it feels shallow......
I don't think Blaziken is likely as of now...
He's one of the more prominent WarioWare characters along with Mona. If Sakurai goes with prominence, it will be one of the two.
That was the thought with the series initially. However, new times have come and if the roster is to expand, some unlikely characters could be added (now when the most popular ones already has made it). Also, I'd rather see Adeleine before, let's say Bowser Jr., if it means having a better character in the game.
Kirby and Dedede are already in Smash. I agree that Skull Kid would be a better representative.
Like I said earlier, they don't necessarily need to be of big importance in order to contribute to a better Smash game.
This is nothing more than an assumption on your part. So relevance still plays an incredibly important factor be considered as a Smash rep.
Even though Bowser Jr. has done more for the Mario franchise then Adeleine has. He even has major fan support too. I find it funny how you mention Bowser Jr. too, after all his Paintbrush can allow him to do pretty much everything Adeleine can do. But again, you are entitled to your own opinion.
This is exactly why Adeleine is not needed at all. She doesn't represent anything new for Kirby's franchise.
Objection!
That is true, it is only assumptions. Relevance is indeed important to be a rep, I don't think Sakurai will add any character he can come across, even though the character in question could enhance the experience better, thus making Smash 4 a better game. But he should. And Adeleine would be a good choice.
Yes, he has done more than Adeleine, but that's not the point. The point is who will be the character best suited for Smash. I'd rather have a good character that is balanced and can contribute with a bit variety in the moveset than a character that is horribly unbalanced and doesn't add anything to the already existing roster and might as well have been excluded in the first place.
We don't have a painter in Smash, and certainly not with a personality as Adeleine. The Kirby franchise could have done with only Kirby, neither King Dedede nor Meta Knight hasn't really added anything from the Kirby series to Smash that Kirby hasn't. Therefore, your argument is irrelevant.
If you think that a good fighting game is only about the popularity of the characters in it, I am afraid you have to be penalized for that Objection.
Robin/My Unit. One of the main characters from Fire Emblem: Awakening.
You are aware of how biased you are of this character, right?
Which in this case, would be Bowser Jr.
This is nothing more than an assumption. What are you working with Namco Bandai in balancing the characters or something? That isn't up to anyone other than the people making the game.
Our speculation should be based on what is popular and relevant right now. Because the characters that are popular and relevant now are the ones that will end up being playable.
In terms of a Painter, what's wrong with Bowser Jr.? He has a Paintbrush and he has shown that he knows how to utilize it in battle. Your painter argument is shot down.
Again, Smash Brothers was made and has been made to represent Nintendo's HISTORY. Who are King Dedede and Meta Knight in terms of Nintendo's History?
In a game like Smash Brothers, the Popular characters are the ones that get chosen. They don't pick characters because of how unique they'd be, they pick them because of what they've done in their games to make them worthy of being playable in the game. Moveset and Uniqueness comes second. Also, what is even more important are characters that would make people want to buy the game. Adeleine is not somebody with this quality.
I know that Game & Wario has Mona and Jimmy T. in it for sure. I don't remember seeing any bit of Ashley yet though. She'll probably still make an appearance due to her overwhelming popularity in Japan.
There are six Wario Ware games and they have been made to Game Boy Advance, Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo DS, DSi Ware and Wii. The seventh installment, Game and Wario (Wii U) will soon be released in Japan, iirc. The series is currently essential for Nintendo, so a character from Wario Ware isn't unlikely.
Can you please be more precise of what I am doing wrong? I want to know. Also, I don't see the problem with my last post. It was some facts about Wario Ware, describing why I think a Wario Ware character has great chances being in Smash 4, and then my humble opinion of which characters I would like to see that isn't even controversial.
Yes, that is correct.
Possibly. We don't know that fo sure, just as we don't know if Adeleine would be better suited. I don't think we will ever know.
Bowser Jr. isn't an aesthete.
Yes, that is more relevant speculations than those I have brought up. Your (/GoldenYuiitusin's) chart pretty much covers most of the characters that most likely will end up being in the final product. However, I like to speculate which characters that would be optimal having in the game, independently of popularity and relevance.
There is nothing wrong with Bowser Jr. In fact, he is one of my favourite characters.
Adeleine is a part of Nintendo history.
With the characters Smash already has, I doubt people won't buy the game. And how many people would seriously consider not buying Smash 4 just because Adeleine is in it? "Screw Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu and all other great characters from the other Smash games, I don't want Adeleine."
She's in it.
This doesn't mean anything. I don't know what you are talking about, and honestly, I don't think you have even read my posts.
Next person that obviously hasn't read my posts. You have no idea how many characters I want for Smash 4 and that I haven't promoted just because I think Adeleine would do the job better.Ove, stop.
There are also characters I want and like that aren't in the chart (Anna, for example) and you don't see me whining about it!
He was talking about your posts regarding Adeleine.
We do know that Adeleine wouldn't be considered over Bowser Jr. though.
But he has a paintbrush and he can use to beat things up. Which is essentially what Adeleine would do in the end. (Whether intentional or not ala Phoenix Wright)
You probably should have stated that earlier. I was assuming you were using Golden's logic as a means to support Adeleine. Otherwise there is no problem in doing that, but that isn't what this topic is about.
I think Adeleine would be a cool character too, but the topic was created to discuss a bunch of realistic character inclusions. Adeleine just doesn't fit the ball.
I'll give you that.
A pretty small part. But yeah, she is one.
Well that might be too far, but it's still pretty important to have characters that people will want to play as. Adeleine doesn't really fit that part of the bill, at least for the majority of consumers.
That's still argumental. Many characters that can still be considered important are still yet to be playable in the game.
There is a new variation of the chart coming soon. So she might appear on the list. Maybe.Ove, stop.

My bad, I haven't really been following Game & Wario too closely. Just used the image to show how many previous characters will still be appearing. Also excited to see possible new characters (that aren't just Wario in a new costumeThe website image is a bit outdated.
Young Cricket, Kat & Ana, 9-Volt, and Captain Wario (the one underneath Mona) had been revealed on it already.
Captain Wario for Smash.
).
Well, every game had to have the token "alternate Wario" game. It was usually Wario-Man, then was Tiny Wario once. Now, they are doing Captain Wario for whatever reason.My bad, I haven't really been following Game & Wario too closely.

Don't you remember that in Mario Kart 7, the Wario themed course is called Wario's Galleon?Well, every game had to have the token "alternate Wario" game. It was usually Wario-Man, then was Tiny Wario once. Now, they are doing Captain Wario for whatever reason.
One would think Wario would be against pirates in general, due to the likes of Captain Syrup and Shake King...
If you had read my posts, then you wouldn't have a reason to complain.
