A large, dark stormy castle with lots of bats.
quoted for TRUTH AND WIN!!!

also, welcome to the world of Claus support! :D
^_^ Thanks!


Still at a loss for what they'd actually DO if one or all of them were ATs. I'm halfway through Chap. 4, so...I guess they'd use random PSI or something? I don't care, as long as they appear in glorious 3D in all their ****** goodness, I'll be happy.

I think that if Claus was confirmed, Starmen.net would explode.
If any MOTHER character was confirmed playable, they'd explode. The only reason they didn't with Lucas is because just about everyone saw it coming.

How would the Magypsies work as an AT? A plot device like Palutena would be fine. Come to think of it, will we see more of Palutena in the story?

I was thinking that the whole group of them could show up at once, and combine their powers to let loose a super powerful PSI attack that combines a bunch of different PSI attacks (PK Fire, PK Ice, PK Thunder...)... that, or have a tea party.... tea party of DOOM that is!! >:D

as for Palutena, I think we will see her at the end of Pit's story in SSE. maybe another time in the middle, but thats about it...

A gigantic PSI attack wouldn't be so bad but it seems unoriginal. Maybe they can summon the Dragon?

As for Pit's storyline, he doesn't have one. They all share the same one.

i really don't want to have many characters that make you say "Wtf game is this guy from" like marth/roy in SSBM. its just kind of a waste of space compared to all the recognisable characters they could have had instead.

I don't see how that works out. Kirby and Mario go on separate paths after their fight at the beginning, so you would have to pick which character you go with ahead of time. it can't just go back and fourth between them, that would mess up the time-line of when things happen.

also, Fox crashes in the jungle after being shot down by the Halberd; he's then found by Diddy, who we know helps DK. so, Diddy had to have found Fox after helping DK, before helping DK, OR helps Fox instead of DK because of an alternate story line.

so yeah, character specific story lines are probable.

and Corax... you know, if you played the game, you would know what game they were from and wouldn't be saying that... it's your own fault that you don't know who the character is; so no, it's not a waste of space... also, most people who aren't hardcore gamers don't know what game Pit's from. is he a waste of space?

Remember, the storyline is broken into teams. As for continuity errors, here's my guess: The events occur simultaneously or near simlutaneously.

1. Kirby vs. Mario
2. Primid Fight.
3. Kirby vs. Petey Pirahna
4. Kirby and the princess escape.,
5.Palutena sends Pit to investigate. + His level.
5. DK and Diddy go after their bananas. + Their level.
5. Kirby and the princess find the Halbeard and get on it. + Their level.
6. DK and Diddy fight Bowser for the bananas.
6. Kirby and the princess find the Halbeard and get on it.
7. DK and Diddy separate.
7. The princess and Kirby see the Halbeard shoot down the Arwing. + Their level.
8. Diddy finds Fox.

That's not how it happens and there are better topics than this to talk about it.

that doesn't make any sense, seeing as Kirby and the Princess escape, then run into the halberd right after that for a new level. theres no break in between for other characters. the only way it makes sense is if there are different story lines for every character, with some characters sharing them. other wise the events get all messed up.

but yeah, this isn't the place to discuss this... unless it's about how Claus will fit into the SSE...

Hmmm... I support Claus but Ness is a higher priority character in my opinion... how kick-*** would it be to have 3 Mother reps?

Ness is out. Get over it.

But anyway, Claus is by far my most wanted character. Didn't Sakurai work on Mother 3? He obviously knows how awesome Claus is, and if he did, he obviously would want to represent Mother. I really hope Sakurai gives mother fans what they want. I would definately main Claus. No, scratch that. If he is in the game, I WILL main him!

How would it be kickass when two of them are pretty much the same in concept? If there's a third character, let it be Kumatora or Duster, if we're lucky, both.

Ness fanboys need to get over it. I did and so did the ones who support Goroh and Lyn.

I never said Ness WAS in, I just want him in. I don't know why you're flaming me for nothing.
All I was saying was that the Rope Snake was Duster's signiture move wasn't it? I don't know why they would give it to Lucas if they were both in.

Is not his signature move, if you had played Mother 3 you'd know that and why would Lucas have Ness's moves if Ness is in the game? You're advocating for Ness in this thread and I suggest you stop, it's not to be taken lightly, BTW, I never said you were saying he WAS in.

Thank you. Also apologies to vesperview. I do respect Claus. Hopefully Ness will at least be an alternate costume for Lucas.
But I noticed something which may affect Claus' chances! Lucas and Claus look very alike exept for colours. What if Sakurai is mean and just makes him a new colour for Lucas? This isn't an arguement, it's just something to ponder.

I think we'll end up getting a Young Claus colour swap for Lucas, regardless of whether Masked Man Claus is playable or not. I mean, it's just way to easy not to include it... easier than the Daisy swap for Peach even.

There's that possibility for that but I doubt as that, like with not putting in other characters, just kills moveset potential.

then you can't be in the club :p

and aren't you the person who wrote that huge Claus history explanation a while ago? cause it would be a shame if that epic wall of text was written my a Ness supporter... cause that means you can't be in the club, and can't get the "Scary Womanizing Pig Mask" rank you earned by writing that Claus history page... :C
No, that was Deku Boy, with a space.

Yeah I laughed when I saw that. I thought maybe I did it while sleep-walking or something lol.
BTW I'm gradually accepting Lucas.

That Mother 3 fan translation needs to get a move on...I attempted to try and play Mother 3 in Japanese and with a Gamefaqs translation guide, but it's just not working. I want to enjoy it as much as possible, so I'm not playing Mother 3 until they finish translating it.

I'll just beat Earthbound first :)
