~The OFFICIAL Bomberman Thread~

[Cubelarooso]

The only arguments I've ever heard are about his moveset and Megaman getting in over him.
As for the Megaman one, there are those crackpot ideas of mine, plus the fact that it's not impossible for there to be 2 more 3rd parties.

Careful though, the cake might be explosive aswell.

Cake is cake.


EDIT: Whoo! Second page!

 

[solrac_krad]

I so want him in brawl, more than megaman, really, he is just too iconic, and his inclusion in brawl woudl be awesome, i hope he makes the cut.

 

[SonicMario]

Cool but I am not sure I can join. I'm not much of a Bomberman fan. I like the Bomberman games. But I don't wholeheartedly love it. And I usually liek the bomberman games for the crazy multiplayer. Not the single player 0_0

(This post is irrevlevent if you were not asking me)

Pfff, no one plays the B-man games for the single player. The multiplayer is where it's at.

 

[SonicMario]

So, so... true =D

 

[EpicE]

This thread kinda makes me wanna see Bomberman in Brawl.

 

[solrac_krad]

I love this on mojo, speacially the oen where he kicks the bomb

Pfff, no one plays the B-man games for the single player. The multiplayer is where it's at.

That's precisely the reason everyone hated Bomberman Hero. Too bad, as it actually was a fun single-player experience...

 

[solrac_krad]

This could be his icon or face thingy (remember those small icons that were on a ssbb site update???)

He also could use the animals, dinasours and others that he used to use on some games like the racing one:

Worst bomberman game ever:

This coudl eb one alt costume:

He is just awesome:

^^I dunno... I'd much prefer the bomb logo that's incorporated intothe various Bomberman titles...

Who even considers ActZero a Bomberman game?
Really?

****... I just realized that Bomberman may have more games on Nintendo platforms than MegaMan...

 

[~N9NE~]

You forgot to read:

I suppose I could add them if you guys want. I just thought the list was pretty conclusive, even without them.

 

[Lord_Deathborne]

^^Opps... Well that means you still missed Panic Bomber for the VB... Yes, there was even a Bomberman game for the Virtual Boy...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

You forgot to read:

Why not add Japanese only, the Megaman people include Megaman & Bass as one of their games Megaman is in for Nintendo all the time

Why limit Bomberman/

 

[~N9NE~]

I added them and some more.

If anyone spots any mistakes, thinks I should add anything, please feel free to tell me.

Side note: IMO I think there are too many movesets in the original post. It just seems like a wall of text. I just think 6 is overkill and when we add more stuff to the OP like art etc... it could get clustered.

 

[Brawlmatt202]

Waluigi? Bomb-throwing? When I think of bomb-throwing, I usually think of the Poppy Bros. from the Kirby series.

But yeah, Bomberman for Brawl!

 

[OmegaXXII]

Bomberman FT ****** W!!! hmm. RDK so you decided to actually create a Bomberman thread, nice

 

[RDK]

Waluigi? Bomb-throwing?

It's kind of a running gag we say a lot in the Brawl Boards. When people try to think of a decent moveset for Waluigi, and they can't, the funny thing to say is "......he could throw bombs......or something....."

Bomberman FT ****** W!!! hmm. RDK so you decided to actually create a Bomberman thread, nice

Thanks. I think it looks much better than the other one.

And N9NE, I added your game list, and tidied up the movesets.

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

do we agree not to have any cyborg crap in brawl

 

[Brawlmatt202]

BAH! He could do a LOT more then that! I could think of loads of moves he could use besides bomb-throwing!

 

[Ralph_Marquee]

Whatever happened to Bomberman being 1st party anyway??

 

[OmegaXXII]

^ what do you mean by "cyborg"?

@RDK: lol that was a good pic of Bomberman stepping on Waluigi back head

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

^ what do you mean by "cyborg?

for a short period of time hudson changed bman's image to a massive robot it sucked so much that hudson changed it back to the bman we know and love

 

[Phlemingo]

Looks like you put a lot of work into it. BTW, how the hell does Bomberman smoke a cigar when he doesn't have a mouth?

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

BTW, how the hell does Bomberman smoke a cigar when he doesn't have a mouth?

because it is a video game

 

[OmegaXXII]

oh, yea I think think i've seen that design before, it was horrible, but yea the original B-man design is what should be in Brawl

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

it was horible. it felt horible when they announced it as his 'new and improved' look. then it floped nobody liked it. but thats what the 360 does to a video game icon hey i made a funny

 

[RDK]

how the hell does Bomberman smoke a cigar when he doesn't have a mouth?

His awesomeness allows him to defy the laws of reality.

And the "cyborg" design is the one from Bomberman: Act Zero. That game sucked big time.

 

[Blobulator]

Wow, the new thread is *busy* haha. Which isn't really a bad thing. Anyways...

Sega and Konami don't have symbols, just their names. Besides, it's not just their companies, but their devision of the companies (Sonic Team and Kojima productions). Hudson does have a symbol, and makes the Bomberman games directly, hence why I chose the Bee.

Ok I'll have to admit, I didn't know that the Fox symbol was Kojima Productions' symbol.

My first post in the last thread was actually a revival asking which it would be after I learned these details about Snake's symbol. I presented examples (the bomb, for those who care :

) but later decided on the Bee. Sonic's symbol has only strengthened my resolve on third party symbols.

Exactly: He should have, but he didn't. Instead he had the Sonic Team symbol, suggesting that they're using company (or devisions, if you want to be annoyingly specific) symbols.

Honestly, I'd have to disagree with this. A Ring, for one, would be mistaken as a great number of things. It just isn't iconic enough. People would see it as a simple circle, hell even a doughnut >.< It just wouldn't link well if it has to be a simple symbol, since you can't exactly make it 3D and golden. As for the emerald, again, I don't see it linking that well. Sure Sonic collected them but I didn't see them linking that well with Sonic himself. Maybe if Eggman was a character (dear god, no >.>), but not Sonic. A shadow of his face, coincidentally the Sonic Team symbol anyway, just seems to relate to him better.

But FOXHOUND has their own symbol, and FOX is the antagonist, so it doesn't make any sense whatsoever for Snake to use their symbol. Unless we take it not as the FOX symbol, but as the Kojima Productions symbol.

Again I don't know much about the Metal Gear series and Kojima Productions, however atleast the Fox symbol sort of gives that feeling of "stealth" just from it's stance. Now, compare this to Snake + the Fox to Bomberman + a Bee, I just don't see it really adding to anything. Even if, technically, it may be a better "business move"? I'm not saying it won't be the Bee, I'm just saying I'd prefer a bomb aethestically as it matches better.

Snake's symbol looks a lot like the Starfox symbol. Besides, Wario's symbol was shown shortly after the first trailer, at a time when they were "still in discussions regarding further 3rd party characters." I'm not sure Nintendo would preemptively give Wario a crappy symbol.

Well Fox's seems a lot more horizontal and flowing, whilst Snake's seems much more vertical and jagged. Still, admittedly, they are *sort of* similar.

As for the "preemptively give Wario a crappy symbol" they, firstly, may have already decided upon the characters themselves. Symbols and all the UI aethestics seem like they'd come after they've laid the groundwork of the roster.

Secondly, however, in the Nintendo World 2006 trailer, Mario's mushroom symbol didn't have the 3 circles on the top of it, yet later on in some of the gameplay screenshots we see that they altered his symbol to have the "mushroom pattern". So they could've changed Wario's symbol from the "crappy W" if they wanted to


Anyway, so summing up, I'm not saying they *won't* have the Hudson Bee, but I just think a Bomb would suit his personality more. The Fox, though a company symbol, sort of goes with Snake's stealthy and even animalistic instincts, Sonic's quite clearly relates to what he is, since I really would argue neither Ring nor Emerald would either suit him personally or be too indistinguishable. The Bee, on the other hand, I just don't see it really fitting together with Bomberman in any respective. Aesthetically I'd just rather a Bomb. And, again, personally that Wario symbol connection was just a random momentary wishful thought on my part, which I don't necessarily believe, heh.

EDIT: Oh, I must remember to subscribe to this thread, on another note. Heh.

 

[Gerudo Warrior]

i don't think the 3 bomb system works we should keep it to the classic games and should his A moves incorporate bombs

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Technically Sonic's icon is not Sonic Team's logo thing...It's close but not it

 

[Blobulator]

Technically Sonic's icon is not Sonic Team's logo thing...It's close but not it

I know it's not *exactly*, but it's pretty much hinting at it.

 

[B.W.]

Excellent work on the new thread. Though I didn't post at all in the last one.

There are a few things I don't agree with in the moveset, but I don't have time to talk about that now as I have to leave to search for a job soon.

Also, the picture of Bomberman stepping on Waluigi is full of win. So is the Bomb Squad, and the whole "Leave the bomb throwing to the experts" thing. And lastly, where'd you find/who did that Bomberman in the SSBB looking style, cause is freakin' amazing.

 

[~N9NE~]

@ Project-05

Feel free to post your comments on RDK's moveset, maybe it would start some discussion.

The Bomberman pic is from the Mojo site.

 

[Fodder]

Here's an idea I never though of: how about mines? Like the motion-sensor from Melee, only invisible, and a little powered-down? Maybe that could replace the lackluster B-forward in my spriteset.

Sorry for going all the way to the first post to quote, I only recently found this awesome thread, but I really like this idea of him setting down mines as he runs or for edgegaurding, etc. But only if there is a limit, say 2 mines, on the field at once otherwise playing against b-man would be horrid in the worst sense.

BTW, Bomberman for Brawl!
