The quote was more along the lines of if there was a new The Mysterious Murasame Game, the protagonist (Takamaru) might be included in Super Smash Bros.

Not sure if the varies ports of The Mysterious Murasame Castle and the references in varies games (Captain Rainbow, Samurai Warriors 3, Nintendo Land etc.) would be good enough.
Does anyone remember how Sakurai felt about originally adding the then Japan only FE characters to the NA Melee? Do you think he would have reservations about adding Takamaru?


They all think Chrom is a shoe-in too.
He is a definite candidate.

YouTube was a pretty dumb place for speculation too. I remember some debate between two channels, and they were taking each other very seriously, even though they had **** on their rosters like Masked Dedede and Trauma Center characters.
That was probably Yosef. He died out long before I even had a Youtube account. A good amount of people there are pretty smart now such as Olekidsf, DedicatedSpecialist, and Ravenkingsage. DemonOverseer was pretty good too until he started a new channel doing new things

Oh, I remember that. IIRC, it was pizzadudemanguy and yosef-something, and then they took it down because yosef (the guy with Masked Dedede and Dr. Styles) lost.


...I tend to remember pointless things.

Was just going to say that. Personally she's my favorite character to come out of FE13, but that's besides the point.
Cherche is definitely one of my favorites, with Kellam, Lon'Qu, Cordelia, and Olivia being the ones above her (and Tiki, but she's been in the series before Awakening).

In a response about Sukapon, back before Melee, Sakurai had mentioned he thought Fire Emblem would be a series that could be appealing even overseas.

Actually it more along the lines of the localization team having plans to remove the Fire Emblem characters for regions outside of Japan, but due to positive reception from the staff and fans, Marth and Roy were kept.

Do you think he would have reservations about adding Takamaru?
I wouldn't technically call it the same scenario, mainly because the character has appeared globally via Samurai Warriors 3 and Nintendo Land. Also there's the rumor of there being a VC re-release of The Mysterious Murasame Castle that's going to be released globally for the first time.

Youtube is pretty dumb for ANY discussion PERIOD.

It rivals Facebook and such in the internet stupidity index.

That being said, nothing even comes close to the amount of stupid you'll find on Twitter.

To think, had the localization team gone through with their plans, not only would Melee be different, but so would Brawl and any future title...
That's a "What Could Have Been" that we were very lucky to be as such.

I don't really see the hatred towards Youtube SSB4 community. They've changed alot since the past 4 years.

Going to take a while. I might not be able to find some of them (I know at least pre-FE4 titles won't have review scores from Famitsu I will be able to find since I never saw them).

I bet the people supporting Chrom would not be satisfied in the end, whether he's included or not. It's pretty much a lose-lose situation for them.

Indeed. the best FE reps would be Marth, Roy,Ike, and maybe Lyn.

In terms of practicality, I would agree that a Marth, Ike, Lyn, and Roy roster would be ideal. I will never get my Eirika, and I've accepted that.

Fire Emblem Fuuin no Tsurugi: 9 9 8 10 (GBA) (36 / 40)
Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken - 9, 9, 8, 8 (34 / 40)
Fire Emblem Sacred Stones 9,9,9,8 (35 / 40)

Famitsu score for the entire series in general

* Awakening - 36
* New Myster of the Emblem - 34
* Shadow Dragon - 34
* Radiant Dawn - 33
* Path of Radiance - 34
* The Sacred Stones - 35
* Blazing Sword - 34
* Sword of Seals - 36
* Thracia 776 - 35
* Genealogy of the Holy War - 31
* Mystery of the Emblem - 36

FE series is pretty consistent in terms of the score it received from Famitsu.

Fire Emblem games are not too drastic when it comes to differences, so it makes sense why the scores are so broad. However, the NES titles of the series (especially Gaiden) feel different from later titles.

My personal picks would be Marth, Roy, Ike, and Master Knight Leaf/Anna (though I personally would want Leaf more, I think there is more demand for some sort of female FE character. However, I strongly doubt Anna would even get in as a Master Knight). I mostly just care about Marth, Roy, and Ike though. Fourth spot could go to Tharja for all I care.

I just remembered that I wanted to reply to this.

I always thought that an opossum would make the perfect Normal-Ghost Type. Y'know, with the fact that it is an ordinary fluffy creature (hence the normal type) that can feign death, for the Ghost-aspect. Opossoul would be a kickass name.

Completely off topic, but I decided to reply to myself, but within reason. Being that I'm absolutely terrible at anything that could be considered art, and I only have MSPain(t) to assist me, I decided to..."draw"...what Opossoul would look like. Well, the basic stage, anyway. God only knows how I would butcher an evolution...

Anyway, here's a rough idea of what the first stage in the Opossoul line would look like.

[Collapse=I know my MSPaint skills suck]
[/Collapse]

Basically, in universe, it almost gets the Sudowoodo treatment in the sense that it fools the foe into thinking it is something it's not. In this case, it deceives the foe into thinking that it is not a Ghost-type, due to its only vaguely ghost-like colors. When performing Ghost-type attacks, it shuts its eyes, giving the appearance that it fainted or died, due to the "X" markings. It's very timid, but its scythe-like tail is used in more dire situations.

In game, I imagine its line would specialize in "tricky" moves, such as Trick Room and such, as well as introducing a signature Physical Ghost move, Tail Reap, or something. The evolved form (Reapossum, maybe?) would be taller, lankier, and mangier, and lose the adorableness. But I'm not attempting to draw that one...




Anyway, just a silly idea I had to pass the time. What else could I do on a Saturday night? :awesome:

Being part Psychic wouldn't really benefit Golduck in the long run. The problem is that Golduck is just generally a mediocre Water-type due to it's average balanced stats. However, it does have a decent movepool to use.

God I hate dedekong,
THIS. A Ridley and Mega Man confirmation at E3 would put a smile in my face to see dedekong flail around saying "But I never said it was a FACT that Mega Man would never get in... just was expressing my opinion".
Did anyone else have Smash bros character / general ideas when they were kids? After Melee, I remember wanting Wario, Daisy, Dixie Kong, Diddy Kong, Charizard, Suicune, Meta Knight, Majora, Rick, Bub and Bob. Anyone else have a childhood list? I wish I could find where I put the notebook it's in. I specifically remember the notebook as well.
I think I made a few back in 2007/2008 about characters I wanted to see. Needless to say, the wishlists I made back in 2007/2008 were filled with DBZ characters and had waaaaayyyy too many characters to boot. That said, I never expressed those hilariously unrealistic wishlist online and didn't really bother to support any characters (since I was never on pre-Brawl, just checked for news).

Because people don't want to accept Chrom being the rep and try to make excuses to why other characters are more plausible even though Chrom is pretty much the most likely newcomer that could be in this game with only Mewtwo and its awakened form coming close. Once they learn to accept it then we will move on. Of course I'm sure there will be lots of complaining from some people the day he is confirmed.
UberPyro46 is one user to watch out for. He has posted a few times on Smashboards, so he'll be back talking about how Chrom is somehow more likely than other more worthy newcomers. Chrom is a candidate, but he's nowhere near shoe-in status.
Shortiecanbrawl said:
I didn't know people really DISLIKED Chrom. I mean, I don't see why. He's alright. My favorite lords are Eirika and Ephraim.
It's not that I hate Chrom or even am against him so much as I get tired of hearing of his so-called shoe-in and/or entitled status given by many people.

Responded. Anyone trying to argue Mega Man is impossible due to such flimsy reasons gets to deal with me.

Well, I mean, the reason practically every FE character was included was because IS said "you could add x". So It's definitely not out of the realm of possibility ya know.

I also want Snake confirmed to be returning just so I can see his rage.

My main issues comes from the many people who treat Chrom as "t3h inevitable" or a must-have just because of his game selling well (no newcomer can claim to be a shoe-in and no individual newcomer is going to make a significant difference in sales). People who like the idea of him getting in and support him for who he is rather than because "Awakening deserves a rep!" and think he's a realistic (or even likely) and avoid statements like the one UberPyro made are those I'm fine with.

I honestly have a hard time seeing Snake and Sonic getting confirmed at E3 if they return. So even if Mega Man and Ridley gets confirmed at E3, we'll be dealing with dedekong attacking Snake until his confirmation (assuming he's in).
