I don't know, playing Pokken probably.
Back at the bandwagon from whence they came!
>Implying I used "Grass starter" arguement and that there is no other reason to suppprt DecidueyeBack at the bandwagon from whence they came!
Seriously though, I don't think a Grass starter is that much needed for roster representation. I mean, it's not even one of the more popular Pokemon Types in the franchise even. I'd argue that it's only sort of relevant because you have the OPTION to pick a Grass stater each game, but it really never was the most popular option...
Torterra however I'd support without a single doubt.
NOW THAT'S A GRASS STARTER RIGHT THERE!!
Simon Belmont. I remember the SNES game. Great design and boss battles.
Nah. Just messing around and all.I'd choose the snek.
Edit: Did you quote my post just to spite me?
If they had Simon's theme from that game when they revealed him, it would be sick as all hell.
Fair enough. But I actually liked playing Snake. I just don't know if Konami would get two characters like Capcom did with Mega Man and Ryu, or SEGA(to an extent)with Sonic and Bayo. If came to one, I'd go for Simon, but Snake isn't a bad choice.
"Hot take"?
My takes are hot because I used to be burning :V
It's all a matter of timing. Let's not forget that Gen 3 and 5 still have tons of content in Smash at the time too. Don't forget that Pokemon Trainer was based upon his Gen 3 redesign as well.
Technically, Generation 2 is a loser as well. Just one that's barely less of one in comparison.
Lucario was added before he became the real juggernaut for the franchise he would be.
Why would you buy a system with barely any games you want?
In all fairness, some people would buy a console for just a few games.
Excluding anything with Ash's Greninja for obvious reasons.....
I don't buy games as much anymore plus it came with one of the few games I knew I'd enjoy and the portability works for me since I don't stick at home much anymore anyway. There's also a few games I have some expectations for like Xenoblade chronicles 2, Super Mario Odyssey, No More Heroes 3 and Metroid Prime 4.
Lets not forget the Kanto Starter Pokemon movie, I still tear up.
Sorry, it happens sometimes. I need to keep my temper in check.
Chill out bruv.
Yeah, Decidueye could work. Sure. I personally just prefer Buzzwhole and Mimikyu. You have your tastes, I have mine. Neither is superior.
I personally like Sceptile, especially after seeing it in Pokken. But yeah, Pokken is able to make me want Weavile and Scizor without joking around.
If you haven't noticed, I like to poke fun every now and then. Smash speculation is at it's lowest low at this point, so I personally see no problem having silly discussions.
Snake would definitely be my choice. I would also love Simon, or Alucard/another Belmont, but I feel Bomberman is more likely than a Castlevania character. Maybe not as likely as Snake. The dream is all three but, uh, lol.
Yeah, we're probably getting Melee on VC if nothing else.
Interesting, but also irrelevant if you can't even find the product anymore.
But only because they need to program Melee when rereleased to specifically make the buttons act properly on the Adapter's controllers. The problem is the Adapter isn't compatible with tons of games as it's not a regular controller option. It's just something that lets you use Gamecube Controllers on specific games, that are programmed to use the controller. It was never inherently compatible with the Wii U like the Pro Controllers were. This is a huge deal with its design.
I wouldn't mind Scizor entering in Smash. I think this Gen 2 Pokémon could truly bring something unique to the table. Judging by what it knows naturally, Feint could possibly be used as an anti-counter technique. Razor Wind could be a wind projectile, but Scizor's stats would suggest a physical fighter with some good defenses. Mega Forms are used for Charizard and Mewtwo for their Final Smashes and I think Scizor would follow suit. Since Scizor was a Pokéball summon in Melee, Scizor being fully playable would be a promotion, similar to how Charizard was promoted in Brawl and went solo in Smash for Wii U/3DS. Now where the Smash statistics could go depends on abilities, Technician or Light Metal if used.
As for Incineroar, I can easily think of Incineroar getting a crossover outfit based off of Tekken's Armor King if both Incineroar and a Tekken character playable in Smash and if we ever get crossover outfits.
It's pretty good that the Gamecube controller is supported. It's whether they'll take advantage of it or not (like possible GC Virtual Console releases and/or as a wider span of supported games than the Wii U) is the question.
Not saying this is where they will go, but I think the smartest thing to do would be to port over the Wii U game as is and use that as a base to build off of, that way all they'd have to do is work on improving the balance and focus on adding new content without having to worry about downsizing the game.
It took just over two and a half years (April 2012 to Smash Wii U's release in November 2014) of active development across two platforms whilst balance patches and post-launch content are standard for fighting games now (and were when Smash 4 released) and shouldn't be counted as part of the main development.
Still waiting on a Gen 3 and 5 fighter though
Tbh that take is getting more tepid by the day.
I don't see why nobody wants to consider reusing assets. ArcSys does it and Tekken still does iirc yet they still like fine. Smash 4 has the perfect art style for the franchise so you might aswell save all that hard work
