You can always stretch the definition of relevancy, as Smash relevance is the only relevance pertinent to a characters inclusion. Your 4 characters that weren't part of the original 12 are also retro, just in case you aren't aware. The prior to Uprising portion defeats the purpose of your statement in regards to Pit anyways. Is relevance BS? Not always, nothing is absolute. However, is it the only prerequisite of a character? Of course not, I didn't insinuate any such notion.
Me too, what game is this?
See, that's what I meant by lighten up, you couldn't even take a good natured joke.
Why exactly were people expecting Lucario to be scrapped, again?
They'll be on disc DLC.
Because MUH MEWTWO or MUH ZOROARK.
Because he ain't relevant!
All of those characters are retros. Why must you assume Chrom will play identical to the others?See, that's what I meant by lighten up, you couldn't even take a good natured joke.
All of the characters are unique and do something very different from what everyone else does. You ignored the rest of what I said too, they might have one or two yes, but you're telling me everyone on the roster is relevant? Ice Climbers? Mr. Game & Watch? R.O.B.? Even Fox isn't relevant anymore. The majority of the roster isn't relevant, not the other way around.
I will state this sentiment once again (however many times it takes, I suppose), Smash relevance is the only relevance that is pertinent to a characters inclusion. Fox is relevant to Smash... as Star Fox is relevant to Smash. If Smash relevance wasn't significant, we would not have gotten Game and Watch in Brawl and we will not get ROB in Smash 4. However, they are relevant to Smash, so many speculate for their return.See, that's what I meant by lighten up, you couldn't even take a good natured joke.

Who's Like?
Because it's common knowledge by now that the majority of the people thought Lucario replaced Mewtwo in Brawl.
Well, I personally am on the assumption that not everyone from Brawl will return. Whether that will be true or not is uncertain but I just figured some would be axed, like Sonic, Snake, and Lucario, maybe even Wolf and Ike. It doesn't mean I wanted them to be, just something I was bracing myself for.
Morbid's Fire Emblem OC. That's my guess.
And then Villager is based off of his City Folk incarnation instead of New Leaf and Classic MegaMan.
I completely avoid SSB related arguments in general. I'm still disgruntled from forum arguments about Ridley back in 2007.
Then why are you here? In SSB argument paradise?
They're usually wrong anyway.
I'm not sure, I don't think I realized what I was walking into.
Well done.That argument got too big, imo.
Fox isn't retro. And that's not to mention Falco and Wolf, who also aren't "relevant" and a few other characters like Captain Falcon, who hasn't had a game in a long time. The point is that not every character is in to advertise something, this is a fighting game of favorite Nintendo characters, it also happens to be advertisement. That wasn't the intention originally. I'm pretty sure Ike does use fire in his game, it's just blue, not normal coloured.
Yes, these characters are relevant to Smash, oppositely of being in "for advertisement." Half of the characters are in because fans ask for them, roughly half of the other half are there for whatever reasons Sakurai himself has, and the rest are the "relevant" ones. Not counting the main characters who are supposed to be there.
We already have Toon Link and Lucario, two characters that everyone thought would be cut. I highly doubt anyone is going, and Snake sure as hell isn't going anywhere. I've explained this before, but the short version is that Snake is a special case, Sakurai would have to go through more trouble than it's worth to get rid of him rather than to just keep him, which would take less effort and wouldn't cause him to be in bad standings with Kojima.
Exactly. My beef is they're too specific. relevance, ideally, should be more than being in a recent game.
I wasn't talking about the overall difficulty of the game and gameplay, I meant more in the fact that the character selection in said game was horrible, especially on SEGA's side. With the characters SEGA brought to the table, it might as well been NamcoXCapcom 2. Not to mention there were many characters from both Namco and Capcom that should've been there.
But the last Smash Bros. was 6 years ago. That's not relevant.
I didn't mention Fox because he is a horrible example of an irrelevant character.Fox isn't retro. And that's not to mention Falco and Wolf, who also aren't "relevant" and a few other characters like Captain Falcon, who hasn't had a game in a long time.

Let's just say it's a clean-cut example of why three company crossovers don't work. And that SEGA got a really raw deal. Pretty much almost every one of their most famous and well-known characters were left out of the game.Project X zone talk huh. Not too familiar with that game
I have a feeling that it's simply going to be a buffed version of the Brawl Aura mechanic. No major changes, just buffed.Damn, it's really freaking hard to keep up with this thread! Every minute or so a new page gets added. How much **** can you guys post, dammit! (
On a more serious note, I'm glad Lucario is back, just hope that his aura mechanic is handled properly this time around. It was pretty moot in Brawl.
I was hyped for it until I found out it was a strategy RPG. Not really a fan of those. Only one I've ever liked is Fire Emblem Awakening.Project X zone talk huh. Not too familiar with that game
Revised for accuracy.
Not surprising. Some of these people are refugees from the Roster Prediction Discussion thread. They have nowhere else to go.Damn, it's really freaking hard to keep up with this thread! Every minute or so a new page gets added. How much **** can you guys post, dammit! (
