We certainly have come rather far, friends. I feel Golden Sun might be more popular now than when Dark Dawn was released, yet, that's simply from my perspective. It's been nice actually engaging with the community this time around. Glad to be here with you all.
I would emulate them , but I usually just say that so people get to experience em.
Super Mario RPG is on the SNES Classic, which is how I did my latest playthrough of it months ago.
you're close.
Whaaaaaaaat is with me and always missing a pokemon. Oy.
You pretty much hit the nail on the head there. Some series really deserve another rep, and as for pokemon, the ONLY reason I could see them adding another mon is focusing on a type that doesn't already exist in the game. We already have a Fire/Flying, Water, Water/Dark, Grass/Poison, Psychic, Electric, Electric, Fairy/Normal, Fighting/Steel.
Typing is mostly just a superficial particle effect in Smash though. I don't see Jigglypuff rocking that Fairy type very well or Ivysaur relying on poisoning his enemies.
F-Zero and Mother are dead series. Anything for F-Zero has to be made up from scratch as the characters do nothing except race, they're basically avatars for cars. If Sakurai couldn't get more creative with Starfox with more to work with, I highly doubt he can pull much out for F-Zero besides Captain Ganondorf turned Black Shadow. Mother has supplied us with two kids who look similar and attack similar. It has more potential than that, but I mostly see people rally for Ninten (so 3 kids looking the same and behaving the same overall) which isn't promising.
Once you said F-Zero was a dead series, I just tuned you out.
F-Zero hasn't had a release since 2004 though
And Ice climbers hasn't had a release since the NES.
Ugh. Don't even ****ing remind me of that.
If they make a fighting game over the ACTUAL game that fans have been waiting for.
you have to survive federation force to get to prime 4 though
This^
Which is what F-Zero fans are perfectly fine with when it comes to Black Shadow. They just want a 2nd character who would fit the heros vs villains archetype that Ultimate seems to be going for.
The reason Ninten is supported is because Echos are so easy to produce and would not cost much in labor costs and resources. It would easily fit the newcomers for the trilogy of the series. (You could also argue that Duster is supported for a new take on a moveset as well, but Ninten is more prominent since he would complete the protagonist representation of each game in the series)
The Metroid part is right, but many would love to have Krystal bring her own original moveset that no other Star Fox character has.
The issue is that Smash Brothers has multiple franchises that spans the entirety of Nintendo's history. To have the roster mainly support Pokemon, Kirby, Mario and Fire Emblem characters is a disservice to the vast pool of franchises that exists in Nintendo's family and library.
How do you think they are "getting torn down"? Do you believe the general Smash fan base wants the roster to mainly consist of Pokemon, Fire Emblem and Mario characters? Smash is a great way for Nintendo to introduce/reintroduce long forgotten franchises and breathe life back into old franchises.
The Reboot Cast depends on what the goal of the Reboot itself is. Is it about Nintendo's history and the franchises it picked up over the years? Well there goes the majority of the Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Kirby and Mario casts; especially, if the roster space is extremely limited. If you need one character to represent each franchise that Nintendo owns then you can bet that big Nintendo series like Mario would be severely neutered in size.
I wish I could look at myself in the mirror and say to myself ‘F-Zero is not dead’ and believe it. Would probably make my life better if I could.
I didn’t know how much I wanted this until now. **** Judge Eyes, just give us Falcon Yakuza. Sega used to make F-Zero so it just works.
Nintendo could probably make me buy a port of FIFA if they called it F-Zero.
Also this. Would also have accepted ‘you have to survive Other M to get to Samus Returns’
ANd like Federation Force, I'll boycott it the same as any other "disservice" that Nintendo gives to a franchise.
I certainly won't give them a pass when they leave behind their fans for over 14 years.
You know a fanbase is thirsty as **** when all they’re asking for is an Echo Fighter. Man, I hope Black Shadow and Ninten get in.
Was the gap between Geno and Isaac filled with other choices or was it just a gap of numbers?
I would believe it is a gap of numbers as Brawl was the introduction of the Golden Sun franchise to many, myself included.
You mean old Zelda games like Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask or Link to the Past and the Original?
If verge is advocating a guy who says Steve is likely going to be a character when
If you want a F-Zero fighting game, clearly smash is the place for you.
Disappointing because despite Verge saying there would be some Minecraft stuff, there is no way that Steve would be playable and people are believing this a bit. There is just no way I can see Nintendo making Steve playable for whatever reason. A stage? Ok, that could be fun. Assist trophy? Ok, I can see that. Playable character? Boi, he is less likely than Waluigi being Ultimate.
