Wait, first you say that there is no perfect game, then you refuse to accept that Brawl has flaws? Unless I'm mistaken about the definition of "flawed", that's a contradiction.
It has flaws, but you and i know Prime didn't meant to say it wasn't perfect, the only flaws i know of are that there are still glitches like Bowser's infinte jump etc etc.
As for the half-***** parts, well. First off is the roster, of course. There is simply no way around it. They took suggestions, had polls, they made it seem like the game wanted to please the fans. That there was such an outcry after the revelation of the roster is testament to the fact that they failed to please us. Besides that, there was a thread soon after where people could choose to replace a handful of characters in the roster with other characters while staying within the 35 character limit, and many of those answers just exchanged two or three characters, and they overlapped.
It would have been far from impossible to please a large majority of the fans.
The Roster is not half *****, the ONLY character that should've been t here and was left out was Mewtwo, and even he was planned to be in the game.
Why exactly is the roster half assed? because it lacks 2 characters you whanted? Oh ok.
Not to mention the clones.
Young Link... and...
Uuuh... yeah, since we know Ganondorf is luigified, his moves may work bassicaly the same but one is diferent, other 2 have a diferent animation. It's luigified, and you can't deny it.
And about the balance, like i said, no game is perfect, still, like you said, it's more balanced, and that's something, and we do not know if Ganondorf is bad, last time i saw he was still pretty powerfull.
Your next 2 points are irrelevant(Ats and Stage Builder) thei're bonus, and Sakurai knows most people play withouth items.
It's like i give you 5 bucks and you complain about me not giving you more.
So what happened to the Roy, Doctor Mario, Mewtwo, etc. data that was found on the disc? If we're to believe whatever sources that were ( I'm losing touch with the news... ), there won't be downloadable content.
So if they already had so many delays, why couldn't they at least go that extra few feet and at least make those characters alt costumes? On that note, why give the Pokemon Trainer such a generic name, make him the perfect protagonist for Pokemon fans to identify it, then pass up the opportunity to give him a simple female model?
All of that wouldn't have been hard, I imagine.
Last news i heard is that ONLY Roy and Mewtwo files where found, IIRC the others were a lie. And Pokemon Trainer got a generic name? geez i wonder why. Since you can rename him in the games and you can get your own name in brawl who gives a crap.
And i'm getting tired 'bout the female argument. Who gives a damm for more females, this is a ****ing fighthing game, not DDoA Bolleyball, and why do you whant more womans? you whant to fap to a videogame? i really can't find any reason behind the more females argument, so please enlighten me.
Then we get little things that nobody asked for. Trophy Shooter. Cute. Stickers. Cute. Tons of music. Well... I'm the last person to complain about some good music.
But the time spent on things that nobody will care about anymore after the initial "yay" could have been invested in some of the things people actually wanted. Doesn't even have to be big things. I personally would be grateful for the option to turn off those ugly character portraits next to icons in battles, or on that note, it would have been great if the character portraits weren't ugly to begin with. If they gave the game such a pretty cover, they could have done the same in-game. Maybe even in a style more similar to their most defining games. Nostalgia factor, right?
I'll have to agree with you here.
I'm going to go ahead and completely agree with Fawriel on this one. No one can say that they'd rather have a hundred usless additions than an admiral roster and decent online play (which was the only reason anyone wanted this game a few months ago).
Yeah sure, no one whants the game now because Ridley is not a character. Go try and kill yourself again.
Haha, the only reason to own a Wii right now is this game, and it is turning out to be a total disappointment. Soon, Nintendo fans will have no choice but to move on to the Xbox 360...
You're such an ignorant idiot i'm not even going to waste breath by arguing with this point.
BTW, Shuma is only defending him because he's a dirty gay lava man and he enjoys arguing for the sake of arguing. Are you sure you're not Russian, Shuma?
You know, the only reason i'm not warning you is because i would be endangering this thread, still, my patience has a limit, and i don't like you, Don't test me.
but because Sakurai said he wanted to concentrate on single player and not multiplayer - and well, a large varied roster is a multiplayer thing. I remember reading where he basically specified this despite Miyamoto's complaints.
Wrong, Miyamoto forced Sakurai to make a Smash a multyplayer game in the last 2 tittles, since Sakurai was leaving, Miyamoto asked him to do this smash anyway he whanted, and yes, Sakurai whanted to give Smash a great storyline.
In all honesty, I think Sakurai was just on the wrong track about what the fans wanted
Not really, my theory is that if Sakurai left Mewtwo and RIdley out was for a reason, i can think of only one.
Sakurai knew melee didn't do Mewtwo's justice, so i guess he did plan to implement him in the game(a fact) however i guess he was too dificult to balance, he clearly was too dificult to balance in melee, hence why he was nerfed a lot.
And Ridley... it's way obvious why he is a boss, the best argument i heard 'bout why Ridley wouldn't fit in the roster, was that maybe it wouldn't do "ridley's justice". This plust balancing a ****ing lighthing fast super space dragon must have given Sakurai the idea of making him a boss.
My theory.
