I don't even know the first thing about Fatal Fury but I already liked Terry. He just seems like a nice guy.

This and, how you couldn't like some funny engrish? Terry was Fawful before Fawful existed, any lines he shout in-battle is chuckle-worthy, and he is still a badass despite (or because of) his catchphrase.

Don't you just love it when the majority of Smash fans across the web go into a b***h fit over a newcomer that isn't their most wanted,
and act like complete A-holes about it by disregarding those who've wanted said newcomer?
We've really dealt with another Dragon Quest situation haven't we?​
People are still thinking comparing Terry to Ken is an insult when even the SNK vs Capcom games had fun with this? That's just sad.
Sidenote, seeing this, I'd have been fine with Kula as well, We could need another ice based fighter, giving the Ice Climbers some competition.

The Phantom Thieves spirit might be the worst experience I've ever had. This **** is what they use to torture people in Hell.

I beat it on my first attempt. I would've died if I took one more hit, but that doesn't matter

All of the people in those pictures deserve their internet connections suspended. You say ****ty stuff like that, you loose your platform. And yes, I am aware that mine would have been suspended numerous times over some of the things i’ve said. But I’m tired of this. In places besides the Smash community. Just because you CAN say whatever you want, doesn’t mean you should.

We’ve clearly abused our free speech privileges. It’s time to take them away so we can think about what we did.

The smash community is massive, there's always going to be people who are upset, especially when this game gives pretty much any character the chance to be in

I swear fans can be so ungrateful...Its only fair Sakurai gets to pick some for himself like Terry and:ultjoker:
While I don't doubt Sakurai enjoys both series, let's not forget that both Persona and Fatal Fury have pretty damn good reasons to make it into Smash (Persona as a series even outsell Banjo-Kazooie).

I don't have a problem with Sakurai adding characters for himself, but most "Sakurai picks" are just regular picks unknown to Smash bubble.

I agree that its dumb, but they insulted a video game character, you make it sound like they spread hate speech

Right. If we were getting real “Sakurai picks” it would be characters like Ayumi Tachibana or Mach Rider. Maybe even Geno.

I’m not just talking about these people. I’m talking about everyone who spreads vitriol online. The bigots, the racists, the transphobes, that flat-earthers, everyone from Fox News to infowars. The internet needs a mass weeding.

That's how you get 1984.

Someone made a comparison video of Terry's Smash trailer vs the NEO GEO games it's referencing.

I know KoF and SNK being due to its legacy and many inspirations of Smash along with Sakurai being a fan who played them. At this point there's more to Smash then fan favorites. Its about celebrating gaming and we don't know if it'd even exist or be as it is today if not for KoF. Actually surprised Terry never made it until now.

That's what these fans fails to realize.

You know, for what it’s worth...when we talk about Smash and adding Nintendo characters there’s...64 total Nintendo Fighters, going over 70 if you count each Koopaling.

I get it, like, we haven’t gotten a DLC character from a Nintendo series but like...the whole idea that Sakurai needs to “throw Nintendo fans a bone” is...odd.

Not every character ever will be playable in Smash. I imagine I won’t get every character I want. In a perfect scenario I’d get Rex, Edelgard, Astral Chain, Dante, Leon or Jill, Heihachi, Doom Slayer, Crash...there are others. But the fact remains that’s its simply not going to happen.

I just think it’s ironic that Nintendo fans think there’s too much of a 3rd party focus when there’s basically 70 characters you could play as, and companies/series that aren’t in Smash get ONE (1) character. This is especially interesting when it’s just addressed not as add a “Fire Emblem character” or “Pokémon character” but First party. Like any 1st party will do.

I just find it interesting.

Its weird, like people only ever care about the new characters. Personally, I'm not super attached to any one character or franchise so I'm never really disappointed with what happens.

not hard to outsell a 3 game franchise when you have multiple games + Persona 5...but not the point

Let’s not jump on the girl.

I see what she’s saying. Some people use the internet to hurt people, like doxxing or swatting. It would be nice if those people had the internet taken away. But I don’t think it should be used on people who don’t like a Smash reveal tbh

Its awkward being a Nakoruru fan now.

Everyone was so into the idea before Terry's reveal, and now, if you so much as relate to SNK in any way, you get flak for it.

Another day in the Smash community.

Maybe we need a little 1984 right now.
Yep that's a certified bruh moment right there.
Some people do say awful things and have awful opinions just look at 4chan but Free Speech is a right and something that shouldn't be taken away. People spouting awful things is horrible and nobody should stand for it but what about the people who don't do that? Why punish them when they didn't do anything?

And this is about Smash anyways, People can have differing opinions as long as you don't harass people.
