Super Smash Bros 4 (Wii U/3DS) Topic

Agreed 100%.

I really disliked that Mewtwo and Roy got cut in Brawl, but I still enjoyed the game a lot. Characters are good and we all have our favorites, but gameplay is more important.

Seriously, not buying a game because your favorite character isn't in is stupid. It makes you seem like you don't care about the most important part of the game: the gameplay itself.

Was like in Project X Zone. I was disappointed that Sonic, Streets of Rage and Golden Axe got nothing but I had favorites otherwise like X & Zero, the Sakura Wars cast. Street Fighter etc etc [I really could go on. Lots of great choices in the game] that got in, So it was worth it anyways.

Literally, Diddy is the best thing in Brawl. And sole reason I enjoyed the game. No need to lie.

My feelings about Captain Falcon, even though he's ass in brawl.

You know what Project X Zone and Super Smash Bros. have in common, right? Both are crossover games and you can't please everyone. It's impossible.

Though I didn't know all of the characters in PXZ, it's a feeling I had when I first heard about Smash and it's always good to expand my gaming horizons. That's one thing I like about crossovers.

My point still stands: the gameplay is still more important. While characters are an important aspect, if the gameplay fails, the game flops anyway. Characters alone don't make a game.

I wouldn't have played Brawl for too long if it didn't have online. Yes I know, its online is terrible, but from a standpoint of someone who never played Smash Bros with friends because they didn't like video games and whatnot, it's refreshing to this day to go against a human player, good or bad. Hell, to this day, I've been playing online every night since the day Brawl came out.

I'd try Melee's dolphin or whatever it's called if I took the time to learn about the computer file nonsense, though.

I totally agree with you on that all of your points. It was thanks to Smash I learned what F-Zero, Earthbound and Fire Emblem were among some other series I had missed. Same with PXZ, learning about some new series and it feels wonderful reading up on them and trying to get the means to play them ^^;

Diddy was the most technical character of Brawl. If it didn't have him in, it WOULD have sucked for me.

 

[The Black mage]

If Diddy wasn't included, Mewtwo's removal was enough to justify not buying Brawl. It only got worse by King Dedede's lame *** chaingrab on DK, Ike being bad, and all other top tiers besides Diddy being extremely homosexual and stupid.

Who needs tiers?

Actually the most technical character is Olimar iirc.

Are there any Rival Schools reps in PXZ?

 

[Shorts]

Why whine about certain characters not getting in? Most of you will have at least one or two of your most wanted newcomers revealed. I'll be lucky to have one.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

The game is called Mario Kart 8.

Not Diddy Kong Racing 8.

If it was all about Diddy being in it. How the heck did you even enjoy the Mario Karts before Double Dash? Or how the hell did you even play Smash 64 and Melee?

Someone over estimates Diddy's importance to the core of any game not called Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong.~~

 

[Frostwraith]

I liked Mewtwo in Melee and he was removed in SSB4 and you don't see me complaining about it. There were other characters in Brawl I liked, such as Olimar.

While I would like Mewtwo to return for SSB4, I will buy the game regardless of whether or not he's included.

This here is a man who is devoted to Smashing, no matter the characters, or anything else. I look up to them.

Yes, Batsu appears as one of the characters.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Smash Brothers and Mario Kart is fun regardless of the roster to me.

I don't know maybe I come from strange foreign land where people buy and play games based on gameplay not their favorite character being in the game/game's storyline.

That is incredibly sad for you.

For those curious on who are all the characters on Project X Zone, check the Wikipedia article about the game.

Also, this is NOT a fighting game! Many people mistook the game for one, based on the trailers. It's an SRPG, like Fire Emblem.

 

[Metal Overlord]

Apparently not showing interest in something now is "whining" and "complaining" about it

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I've wanted Cranky Kong in Mario Kart for the longest.

I mean really he should've been in before Funky, if NOT Diddy, since he's the original DK and was a rival of Mario's at one point.

You have to admit that not buying a game because ONE character isn't in is pretty sad.

Also to add onto this. There is a demo on the 3DS E-Shop! Those of you who want to try it out.

 

[Moon Monkey]

Personally, I prefer the air I think that the cast in most Mario Kart games are pointless, because besides their weight class there is nothing special about them. Which is why I like Double Dash so much, because it gave you a reason to go for characters. There was something unique about each (pair of) character(s). If everyone drives the same then they are just skins for external attractions.

 

[TheFirstPoppyBro]

Genius Sonority.

I don't care who makes it. I know Genius Sonority made the Gamecube ones, but Game Freak and the Pokemon Company were CLEARLY involved.

I just want another Shadow Pokemon game.

@Moon: Baby Mario and Yoshi. Yoshi Eggs that home in, and the Chain Chomp if I fall behind.

Smash Brothers and Mario Kart is fun regardless of the roster to me.

I don't know maybe I come from strange foreign land where people buy and play games based on gameplay not their favorite character being in the game/game's storyline.

In some cases, people should try out the roster rather than just stick to the characters they're already familiar with or already like, and they may indeed just find another character to add to their favorites. I used to be mostly all bout Bowser back in the day (formally DK in the 64 days), but now look at me loving Pit more than Bowser.
It's nice to stay true to a character, but it's even better to have alternatives in case you don't like their style in the new game, or if they didn't make it at all.

 

[Frostwraith]

Also to add onto this. There is a demo on the 3DS E-Shop! Those of you who want to try it out.

A second demo has been released this week in Europe and will be released on the next week in the US.

The second demo features more known characters like Jin & Xiaoyu (Tekken), X & Zero (Mega Man), Chris & Jill (Resident Evil), Yuri & Estelle (Tales) and Dante & Demitri (Devil May Cry & Darkstalkers).

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Yep. I have never touched a Fire Emblem game in my life, but Marth is my boy in Melee/Brawl.

Not even a huge fan of Pikmin, but loved Olimar in Brawl.

It really is okay to branch out from your safety zone. It doesn't hurt that much.

 

[Metal Overlord]

It's not something I would do personally yeah but I can understand where he's coming from

 

[Diddy Kong]

Why sad? I'll rather keep my standards and my money if I'm not gonna be interessted anyway.

I did in fact play Smash 64 and Melee. But was still heavily dissapointed Diddy wasn't in it. And up till today, I still think Diddy should have been at least in Melee. As I've wanted him since Smash 64.

Double Dash was the first Mario Kart I actually purchased so... I did play SNES Mario Kart however. And GBA Mario Kart (I got both as presents).

No Diddy no purchase is my motto for any game that could potentially have him in. Doesn't mean I'll buy any game where he's in mindlessly, cause I don't.

Ain't no body got time for dat.

To play devils advocate for a sec. Part of the fun for Smash Bros is being able to play as your favorite Nintendo All-star. Some people may not pick characters based on play-style, but instead they may pick the characters because they have some sort of affinity for them, and/or maybe fans of that series.

In my case. Smash is what made me the huge fire emblem fan I am today haha ^^.

Confession #1: Roy is the only character I care about making it into Smash 4. If he doesn't get in I'll be a bit disappointed, yeah. However, I bought Brawl knowing that Roy isn't in it, so nothing is stopping me now. Also, I'm grateful that he's appearing in SMTxFE along with Lilina. I don't even know if I'm more hyped for SMTxFE or Smash 4... probably the former.

Confession #2: I'm probably one of the few people who would rather have everyone unlocked from the start. Please don't hate, but unlockable characters are like added fluff to me. Having to unlock veterans (especially the original 12) is going to feel more like a chore, making me less excited to unlock them unless they're revamped (I kinda felt like this in Brawl).

Confession #3: I had a crush on this boy who sat next to me in grade 6. I was too shy to befriend him.

You only further my point: it's like you don't care about the games themselves, but only whether Diddy Kong is in or not. The gameplay could be broken as hell, but "Ah! Diddy is in! Gonna buy."

That's why I think it's sad. It's the same thing as buying a game because it has good graphics.

Guess I have different standards... (I'll stop arguing.)

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Seriously though.

Cranky Kong in Mario Kart. Why hasn't Nintendo thought of doing this yet? Why Funky Kong over him in Wii?

I can even see an opening cinematic with him and Mario going at one another while racing.

Why have you not given me this Nintendo?!

 

[Phan7om]

Im glad Kirby is in Smash 4, as I expected. Most likely im still going to main him, but that doesnt mean that im not going to use any other character. I'm probably going to have basic knowledge of possible combos/ATS/and proper spacing of every character... like I do in both Melee and Brawl.

I'd really like Roy to return as well. You aren't alone in that. When brawl came about though I was glad to see Ike at the very least. Plus the other characters of course ^^ [Sonic got me so hyped xD]

@Confession 3: I had a similar situation in my freshman year in highschool [gosh that feels so long ago]. There was a girl I liked but the whole year I never could speak to her because i'm a shy guy I got better somewhat over the years but :<

Well, I understand that, but you can't please everyone.

The fact that Mewtwo was absent in Brawl didn't stop me from buying the game. Yes, I was disappointed, but complaining wouldn't get me anywhere.

Haha somebody here is named Gohan, thats badass

Man I was such a huge DBZ fan when I was younger ^^; I like DB more these days though

 

[Phan7om]

I know this isnt going to happen... but I would kill for a DBZ character in Smash 4 lol.
