It's the ultimate fanboy **** LMAO

Turning all the wanted characters into customizations for your mii

I was surprised enough to find the Wii fit trainer making an appearance as a character. Lets hope we don't get the mii. ( FLAME SHIELD )

Ghirahim and Final Form Ghirahim? Edit: Everytime I post like a dozen pop in before mine.




Komicturtle, I was not testing you on how good she would be or reasons why she'd be considered. You don't need to convince me of that, she is my third most desired character, love her to death after Uprising. What I was doing was asking why you thought she was implied to be in the game.

Him using his orbitars meaning that Palutena is in and she is using it is you inputting your imagination and thinking it to be true. Call me superficial or not, but that is true. There is absolutely no reason to think that this is necessarily true, in fact I find it conceptually unlikely. Pit got updated because in Uprising he received a massive update for who he is. His set was also a bit meh in Brawl. The move also seems to not be the same as the shield. In addition, I don't see why Palutena would be using these items, not only has she never done so, but that'd be crapping on the potential we both know she has. It does even if you were to rip her moves straight from Uprising.

Fair enough. I'm sorry for being on the defensive. I need to stop letting my utmost love for Uprising (it is my personal GoTY of 2012 and still my top favorite 3DS game) get the best of me I suppose. I just know that she's in Smash 4. That gut feeling. Just like I thought Dedede was in Brawl. It just makes sense to me that she would be in Smash 4.

No the Mii is just terrible in general.

Besides, we have the Villager now with his bowling ball, and other bull**** moves.

(I'll admit though, fan's interpretation of him being a maniac serial killer does make him more awesome for me)

Now, for good old time sake...
Lets talk about Fire Emblem.

Since we never had a specific Fire Emblem stage, I think the Awakening stage strongly suggests Chrom or Lucina is in. And seeing Toon Link possibly deconfirmed, I have bad hopes for Ike. Less for Roy even.

 

[Frostwraith]

It SUDDENLY HIT ME!

Why the Villager is being portrayed by the fandom as a merciless psychopath!

Take the word villager and compare it with the word villain. Both words share the same origin... Now THIS is something to think about...

What about lyn?

Chrom or Lucina. Chrom has a better chance but I'd prefer Lucina.

@ Diddy, agreed.

I always knew that quiet little village had dark secrets.

Someone make an AC creepypasta. I nominate Croph as our writer.

It'll still take time for me to like him. But these sort of things help a lot.

 

[N3ON]

Yeah, about that... uh... no one (hyperbolic, I know) cared about the NES game called Ice Climber. We were all about Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Kid Icarus, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!, Mega Man, even Duck Hunt (only because it came bundled with the awesome Zapper Light Gun). With those quality NES games around, why would we want to bother with a crappy NES game with horrible jumping physics? I cannot really blame them for forgetting about Popo and Nana.

Yeah, no one really liked Ice Climber, I really just meant it's not as black and white as childhood memories = loudest cheers

I bet if Shulk were in the trailer, a lot of people would hypothetically cheer for him, and it'd be justified, but it's not like they grew up with him.

He has move set potential, but to grab attention and to make the character more special you have to emphasis his special qualities. In that case, being capable of learning varies Psynergy. If that is not emphasized, he's not going to win over hearts by looks alone. You get what I mean?

To be fair, usually people cheer the moment they see the character, even before they've really done anything, but I agree, Isaac, and really all characters, need to leave an impact to maximize hype. I was just saying Isaac is definitely capable of leaving an impact with his potential.

Ylisstol castle seems like a nice enough stage...
Although Nintendo will probably just take another random castle, give it those terrain transmission things, then call it Castle Siege 2. ( And put the regular castle siege as a Brawl stage. )

 

[TheTuninator]

Why worry for Ike? Most of Sakurai's victims have been clones, and Ike isn't a clone. Toon Link is.

I seriously doubt Roy will be in, though. He's not beating Ike, and it would be shocking for him to beat an Awakening rep.

Anyways, like I've been saying, I am certain of an Awakening rep. Whether it's Chrom or Lucina is up for debate, though Lucina has the serious problem of being nearly identical to Marth. A Chrom/Lucina Pair Up character would be pretty sweet.

I have a story for you guys. It happened to me as a kid.

I started playing video games when I was around four years old. My first time playing was when I was over at a friend’s house and I was playing Super Mario Deluxe on her Gameboy Color. Of course, this was just a Gameboy Color re-release of the original Super Mario Bros. NES game, but since I had never played the original before this, I saw no difference.
When I reached five or six years old, my cousin gave me his old Nintendo 64 (at least I remember he did) with a few games. You know, Super Mario 64, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2, Pokemon Stadium, the works. One particular favorite was Super Smash Bros.
I loved that game with a passion since the day I got it. I would always play as Mario, that’s all. Sure, I would occasionally play as Link, Kirby, Donkey Kong, Samus, and everyone else, but none of them were as satisfying to play as than Mario was. I played through everything the game could offer for Mario: beating the story mode, the challenges, playing around in the practice mode, and even unlocking the secret characters. I ended up unlocking Ness, Captain Falcon, and Jigglypuff.
But the only character that I could never unlock was Luigi.
I tried so, so hard to unlock him, doing everything I could to finally be able to play as the second half of my favorite video game duo. I even looked up cheat codes and walkthroughs online so I could cheat my way into unlocking him. None of those worked either. I couldn’t understand why it was so hard to unlock a character that never seemed like he was so hard to get.
I’m not sure whatever became of my cousin’s SSB cartridge at the time, but something happened to it. I don’t quite remember what happened, but I’m pretty sure it got ruined or lost or sold. Or maybe my cousin wanted it back for some reason. So, still feeling the need to play SSB, I ask my mom to let me rent it from our Blockbuster. She agreed and took me to go pick it up.
After our quick visit to the Blockbuster, we returned home. I ran to my brother’s room, where the Nintendo 64 was set up. I yanked out the game that was already in the system and put in the SSB cartridge. I was so very excited to play it again, but of course the game didn’t work the first time I turned on the system, so I did what I was told to do: blow on the bottom of the cartridge and try again. I did this for about five minutes and then it finally worked and a wave of relief flowed through me. I picked up the controller and waited to play.
The game started as normal: the HAL Laboratory logo appearing on the screen, the disembodied gloved hand taking the limp characters out of a container and setting up the course for them out of the materials on the desk they lied on, etc. That’s about as far as I got through the introduction before I pressed the “A” button and skipped to the game’s main menu. I proceeded to go to the 4-player mode. Something was different, though. None of the characters I unlocked before were unlocked: no Captain Falcon, no Ness, no Jigglypuff, none of them. I became a little confused, until I saw something that overjoyed me.
I was absolutely ecstatic. I selected him on the player selection screen and took a good look at him. He wasn’t in his default costume, though. He was in one of his alternative costumes, the one where he wore white overalls, a white hat, and a green undershirt. As a kid, I didn’t think too much of it. I let out a loud gasp and yelled, “Mom! Mom! I have Luigi! I have him! I have Luigi!” I got right up and ran to my mom in her room across the house and told her what happened. I told her to come into the room so I could show her marvelous Luigi in the character selection menu. After she gave me the signal that she would be there in a little bit, I just ran back to my brother’s room to start playing.
But what I saw next left me a little stunned.
The Player 1 preview box at the bottom of the screen where Luigi could be shown moving and such was totally filled with thick television static. Luigi wasn’t there.
And Luigi was locked again.
The rest of the menu and the other 3 player preview boxes were perfectly fine.
My mom came into the room and asked me what I wanted her to see. I didn’t respond, but instead, I asked myself...
“Where’s Luigi?”

I am a huge supporter of Meowth since the pre-Melee days but I have accepted that Meowth is not going to be playable in Smash ever... I would be very happy if Sakurai surprised everyone who speculated over the Pokémon reps with Meowth as a newcomer!

Ike could easily get replaced with a slightly revamped moveset by Chrom. That's why.

If this happen I'll BETTER get my Impa though

 

[XStarWarriorX]

So no one believes Lyn will get in other than me? after what sakurai revealed....anything can happen.

Pretty sure people would cheer for Shulk in SSB4, seeing that they were mostly the same people who participated in Operation Rainfall. I am not really interested in Shulk but I can see the justification over his possible inclusion as well.

 

[Opossum]

And it just hit me. The Villager uses an axe. I finally got the axe user I wanted :D

Albeit, it's only one move (so far) but still!

 

[The Black mage]

Most likely, diddy. I mean, both Ike and Chrom learn Aether, so there is one contributing factor.

[Fatmanonice]

Ike's lucky; he was a star in a Fire Emblem game on the Gamecube and Wii so it's not like his relevance went away like a puff of smoke like Roy's did when the DS replaced the GBA.

Sigh*

I wish man. Well, Sakurai's favorite FE character is a swordmaster, but it doesn't seem likely. I don't think we'll be seeing new FE characters, and if we do, it'll be Roy.

See this when regarding Lyn (sadly).

 

[Diddy Kong]

Ask Manly what he thinks about Lyn. Or look up her thread made by him.

Ideally, I'd have, Marth, Ike, Roy and Lyn. Cause I feel those are the most popular and most well known international characters.

But, I don't see it as a likely scenario at all.

Big chance we'll just get Marth, Chrom and Lucina.

Depending on the roster size, this is what I expect; or perhaps just Marth and one of the two new ones.

How do you feel about the undertones for MGSV, Manly? I think it may be the best Metal Gear to date story-wise, based on that trailer. Especially in the Director's Cut.

Spoiler

I cringed when they pulled that package out of that boy's innards in the beginning. Same with the torture scenes, and anything having to do with those children.

Smooth Criminal

I love Donna Burke's new song. It's so powerful. I hope they release the actual song before the game comes out.

SSBB is what got me interested in Metal Gear in the first place, and after months of learning about the games and storyline, and watching walkthroughs of all the Metal Gear games in the order they came out, I'm excited about how Big Boss's story will go this time.

It's only ten or so years until the 90's and the events of the first Metal Gear, right?

I also can't stop listening to that song used in the Monolift Soft X trailer. 8D

I never really got the whole fear of a character being replaced. Honestly such a thing is even more disrespectful to the characters and fanbases in question than being cut due to time like Roy and Mewtwo were. Both Ike & Chrom as well as any other replacement fears deserve better, and I really doubt that Sakurai is that cruel.

And yes there are semi-clones but that's beside the point/a whole different argument to be made, and Young & Toon Link are exact same character (Child Link) anyway.
