Since the Ballot closed months ago and this may very well be the end of SM4SH DLC (though I don't personally think so), who did you vote for in the ballot? (The first time, for those of you who tried multiple times)

I voted for Toad.

I guess I edited my post a little bit too much as it seemed to get very little attention.

My basic idea is, I want to create a Thank You Card to Sakurai. Basically have a lot of Smash Boards Members sign it along with other forums (with usernames and possibly small messages) across the internet. Then have PushDustIn tweet it to him in Japanese so he'll notice.

Might seem difficult, but would be really cool as I feel he really deserves it for what he's done.

Thoughts?
Wasn't something like this attempted by our community before Smash 4 came out? I wonder if it was ever finished...

Yes, some contradict each other but who cares

Wait, he does? Or is he just joking?
It's hard to tell when you're on the internet...
"Sephiroth kills Aerith trophy"

This should be your free space, dude.
I don't see how they could miss representing this pivotal moment with a trophy.

There was a big Smash thank you project run by @Pacack at one point. But I think it might've gotten discontinued or something. Be sure to be really dedicated to such a project.
This one would most likely be of smaller scale as it would just be a thank you card with a bunch of signatures.
I'm not sure how well it would work, but I think it's a really nice idea, just to remind Sakurai how appreciated he is.
See, my idea was to make a basic white image file. In that image file, people would constantly edit it by putting a small message and there username in there. Now, the problem with that would be people trying to edit others out and so fourth.

As a disclaimer, this is something that might be relatively small. I'm not saying I'm going to go ahead with the idea or not, but I just thought it was neat in concept. Sakurai has worked so hard on Smash 4, that I thought it would be a good parting gift of sorts.

PAPER MARIO I just had to show my support for that.
I wonder how his chances are...I've seen some folks on the internet say he'd be like the Toon Link of the Zelda series: representing an entire different side of the series using a different version of the same character.
but we all know he wouldn't be a clone:dizzy:

YEAH!!! PAPER MARIO BOYS GOOOO
He has really good chances imo. I know you can't always trust fan polls but he continually ranks pretty high in them.

^ Fixed the picture for "Gimmicky stage" since it seemed to be causing confusion.
I think a better fix would be throwing an image of Ridley, Metal Face, and Yellow Devil all at once on it.

It's literally impossible for Paper Mario to be a clone of Mario.

This is the same man who took Ganondorf and made him a Captain Falcon (semi)clone.
Just saying, anything can happen.
They had the same body shape.
Paper Mario is completely flat while Mario is 3D.

It would take more creativity to make Paper Mario a Mario clone than it would to make him completely unique.

Hmm, I MIGHT make a BINGO sheet for Tuesday event. But if I do will, it'll be very light on character predicting.

And here's me right now:

this feels weird to not tell my opinion on this as i think last time I did was like months ago :)

There isn;t much point to do that, sure i guess you can argue that he woudn't feel natural and everything that makes him inherently not a clone, but the real thing is if you consider why a clone would be made at all, it;s not really fitting to put him on Paper Mario.

Sakurai made clear once that the making of a clone shouldn't be too much effort to disrupt the work flow of the game, aka it kind have to be straight forward to do it. the problem is take Paper Mario and the only models that could even work is mario and G&w. The later, huge problem: it;s a 3d models, plus, you would have a lot of work to redo the animations so that they are more fluid.

And mario, that actually doesn;t work because to make him look like Paper Mario, you woudl have to have the artstyle, and having the artstyle means you would have to do make sure he would look like a paper and that is not easily done. It would take a good effort, enough to not be much worth as a clone, the worst is they already have dr mario for a clone, why would they even add him? Even playstyle wise it would be not worth it, if you see paper Mario as a clone, there isn;t much that paper Mario can do that is a variation of mario and only that simply because he acts very differently.

TL;DR, i wouldn’t; worry much, it;s hard to see him as a clone where there's already a character that does a pretty good job at that.

Also, this is a weird question but..

Literally 6 people liked that post Alde replied to me with. I'm assuming that means my Paper Mario supporting is somewhat negative/negatively seen.

Can I ask what I'm doing wrong?

Also, I don't mean anything mean towards Alde in this post, I'm just worried.

I decided to make my own Bingo board for Direct since other people are giving it a shot.

In order to create the authentic Burb experience, most of it is based around negativity, salt, and broken dreams!

Etika may as well be a free space, the dude literally STREAMS his reaction to Directs, that's as "Immediately" as you can possibly get. :V

...The top right one should be too. :shaker:

People can use whatever arguments they want for Paper Mario to not be a clone but at the end of the day, he's still Mario
We've got clones that make much less sense than he would do

Why? Oi mean, they were already assist trophies so I would had already lost hope, but ehh, I think they said somewhere that the results could be used in future things.

still can't wait for that Midna amiibo tho technically it's a wolf link amiibo but it got midna on it so aaaaaay

What exactly are you trying to say here?
Have you even played Paper Mario? And do you even realize it's anatomically impossible for him to be a clone fo Mario?

Sorry if I sound harsh, but, there's really no way he can be a clone. I say "can be" instead of "will be" or whatever because, say, the up-special isn't really possible to implement as a clone move, same with the down special...

Also, his hammer.

And I forgot; Wouldn't that mean ZSS is a Samus clone? ZSS is Samus, but look at how different their movesets are.

Smash speculation has made me hate Midna.
That's why...

He is Mario
Made of paper
That's all the general fanbase cares about
Sure he can be original but saying he CAN'T be a clone is bull****

There will be a Smash 5 ?
I mean... it's just too far away to think about it, right ?

Something about some people that made in the game be considered "veterans" at the time it comes already haunts me.
Also, Smash5 speculation will be nuts.
I can't see it happening yet, would be around 2020...
I think that if Sakurai really made this game as his last one in the franchise, he will say about it in this direct.

But he literally can't be a clone! He can be like, 3/4's a clone, or a semiclone, but as I said, there are moves of Mario's you cannot recreate with Paper Mario.

The general fanbase is not Sakurai. I doubt Sakurai feels he'd be a clone.

Keyword here.
The only way a character can be a clone is if they share the original's EXACT body shape.



...It's not exact. Their shape is different.
The key about this is : Falcondorf.
From what I saw from Smash to this point: Everything can be "adjusted".
