@paralasalud: No luck on finding the Star Cape. ;_; Maybe you can draw what you think it looks like? =/

@SMW: I tried using Mario/Geno/Bowser on my way up Booster's Tower and even then I needed a lot of mushrooms and Pick Me Ups. I like having a healer and a character stronger in attack in my party to balance things out.

@Enigma: This song makes me want to go play SMRPG and beat Smithy and watch the ending. xD

"Also, all characters in SSB start as...wait for it...DOLLS. (Added by doadrin)" -Geno Alliance Smashwiki

The person that put that there is an absolute genius. More SE points for Geno.
Thanks man, I'm flattered. As a matter of fact, Geno would be an Excelent addition to Brawl. While I don't see it happening, mostly because the kicking and screaming for Sonic was done by Sega...probibally...Square isn't much on letting it's chars out of the bag. According to an early post, Geno, along with Non-Nintendo characters in SMRPG are property of Squenix. There is also similar arguements for Sora, I suppose. But Geno=BadAss

I try to keep all of my characters at roughly the same level to keep things easier for me. ^^

I usually spend hours earning coins to buy more and more fireworks for the ending . . . I want an ending with lots of fireworks and of course the star firework at the end.

Geno =/= Sora for MANY reasons...


Geno = Square/ Nintendo

Sora = Square/ Disney

Regardless, Sora doesn't give Geno any competition. Geno is 2ND MOST REQUESTED CHARACTER. Everyone needs to remember that if there is any doubt in your minds that he will not be in.

I've never actually seen the source where Sakurai said that he thought Geno was 1st Party. Think to yourselves for a second. Why would Sakurai say that he thought Geno was first party if he didn't have serious thoughts of putting him.

exactly, having those four mentions from Sakurai himself really boosts his chances

To be fair he didnt even know Geno when he said/posted that, he assumed that he was first party.

Yeah, but then he went around researching Geno. I'm trying to find the source, but from what I recall there were rumors of Sakurai asking what Geno's character was like.

He is so perfect. He could even be a Villan in the story considering that he serves a higher authority. I guarantee that if the higher authority told him he needed to do something that hindered the path of Mario he would fight him.

There are so many directions you could pull his character in. He is perfect for the SSE.

Of course he does, but I am sure that he knew what characters would be in before he actually created the Big Plot behind SSE. He would probably be looking for characters that could easily fit into the SSE atmosphere and help make the storyline interesting.

I will never give up defending the fact that Geno would be one of the better characters to put in SSE. It's just his character's personality is so amazing since most of the time he is serious, but he is known to crack jokes and show emotion.

Geno could easily fit into the bigger picture.

Yeah but its ironic that he is this wise being stuck in a child's toy.

Now that I think about it... >_>. Yeah that is pretty **** ironic.

A doll would be the perfect thing for a Star Spirit though. A normal human form probably wouldn't be able to handle the intense energy that he uses in all of his attacks. A doll is the second most human like thing I could think of in the Mario Universe.

And the shrooms and the power ups and the talking turtles...why they are coins everywhere...why bombs are alive...etc.

The Shrooms are seriously why mario thinks he lives in a world with talking mushrooms and evil turtles...he's probably just a drugges out plumber that killed his roommates pet turtle:chuckle:

Also about the earlier argument of Jr. looking like Bowser

Bowser Jr. shares many physical similarities with his father, with the main differences being a red ponytail as opposed to Bowser's mane, small black beady eyes, a more rounded snout, and a single sharp tooth visible in his mouth--features which, along with his body shape, make him look almost identical to Bowser himself at a younger age. He wears a kerchief constantly. It was originally a drawing of Mario's distinctive nose and mustache, but it is later replaced with a set of sharp teeth.

1 thing Jr. is that Baby Bowser wasnt...gullible

but given that he was new and no one knows how Bowser has kids that can't really count against him. But overall only 2 unique things about him

1. Paintbrush which he lost at the end of the game.
2. Bandana which he wears to "distinguish" himself

Also given the fact that the games hes been in, where Bowser only had a minor role, could you say replacement?

Also mini Bowser with paintbrush to Mario clone thats a shadow and we already have another shadow mario from the second paper mario adventure

"Woah dude! I'm like... freaking huge and stuff!"

I could picture Mario sitting drugged up in a corner. Has some rubber bands cutting of circulation of his left arm and a needle in his right arm.

I know that, but when you brought up Mario and tripping the first thing I pictured in my mind was him on heroin sitting in a corner with dazed eyes.

It would take more then shrooms to go on a full out adventure :p
Naw, you will get pretty messed up on a few shrooms my friend. I don't think you need to suicide with the Heroine.

okay, here's some really fast sketches of cape ideas.

the first is maybe the star cape, something more intricate.
the latter is more like a traveling in the desert/journey cape.

...and bottled kero cola :laugh:

Well, lets axe the negativity. One of our best weapons (on these boards) is optimism. So stay positive!

He has better chances than most, so save your tears for all of the fans out there that won't be getting their characters in. Yes, I'm looking at you, Weighted Companion Cube.
Oh God, we are like twins separated at birth. This will teach those nature vs. nurture antics that nurture has a lot to do with upbringing. xD

I totally agree. Stay optimistic and positive! Laws of attraction for the epic win.

Second note, I posted this morning around eight o'clock and returned tonight this evening at seven-thirty, and I am like eleven pages behind. Christ sake, you guys are above and beyond in participating your love for Geno. <3

If that happens then I will boycott Square-Enix until Geno is playable. If it never happens, then I will never play another Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts game ever.
I wouldn't go to that extent. I love my Final Fantasies and Kingdom Hearts too much to totally kick Square-Enix to the curb. I almost have a fetish for chocobos and moogles. >:

In terms of the Bowser Jr. discussion, I'd be so disappointed to see him make the cut. There is already a turtle with a spiked shell, as if we didn't have enough plumbers in overalls running around with bomb-ombs. That aside, Luigi's significance>Bowser Jr's.

Thing you have to love is that not even Lucas is a clone, De times 3 and IC both have different hammer attacks as well.

Oh yes. But I've sort of been thinking about Sora, even though I don't really support him being in Brawl. He would have a **** sweet move set.

His Down B could be Relfectega, encasing himself in a sphere like he does in Kingdom Hearts II, Neutral B could be Blizzard-aga charged shot. Side B could be Strike Raid, like Link's boomerang, if the keyblade fails to return to him, he'll simply summon it back into his hand. Up B could be his Fire-aga spell, longer you hold B, the bigger the range, and he spins to safety in fire, and his final smash could have Riku popping out and they use XIII Blades and after a few seconds of ****** opponents, they finish things off with All's End.

Anywhoo, aside from my KH-fanboyism, I think Nintendo would have to deal with Disney for that. Mario against a Disney character would be overly nonsensical though.

Pro-Geno for th epic win.

first page near the bottom of the first post
Thank you! finally someone who remembered my rant :D

Oh and im not so sure about the whole Geno revealed day of NA release of Mario Galaxy. Think about it; If Sakurai didn't reveal anything Mario specific for the Japan release (which was Nov. 6th), why would he for the American release?

Of course, i could be wrong, he did do something for the American release of the new FE game after all, but im a bit skeptical on that theory.

Anyways, night all, let's hope for something big tonight!! (GENO, GENO, GENO!)

Geno for Brawl!

If Chihiro Fujioka (producer of Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy Legend III and several AlphaDream titles) and Square-Enix don't want Sakurai to add Geno into SSBB as anything, then Chihiro Fujioka might let Sakurai use DeMille from Tomato Adventure instead, because |1.| DeMille was mentioned twice in Sakurai's SSBB poll, |2.| Tomato Adventure is the only Nintendo-published title produced by Chihiro Fujioka that isn't a Hamtaro or Mario title, and |3.| DeMille has a large amount of moves for Sakurai to choose from, including some that look similar to the Final Smash moves.

Just because Geno appeared in M&L: SS, doesn't mean he'll enter SSBB. He was added as a reference to Chihiro Fujioka and his works (including M&L: SS and its sequel), just like one of the costumes of Jill in Drill Dozer being a reference to Pulseman. I understand that Geno is one of the most-wanted characters for SSBB, as well as one of the most popular Mario characters, but here are some things that will decrease his chance at entering SSBB:

* He is 3RD-Party (duh!). Even though Sonic, Solid Snake and some of their friends and foes are in SSBB, I assume that Sakurai will only let SSBB represent two 3RD-Party franchises. Of course Geno is more than a 3RD-Party character, which he is also a Mario character, but read these next two things.
* He probably won't look good in SSBB without Mallow or any other original character from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

AND

* SSBB has enough Mario characters. There were four Mario characters in SSBB, excluding clones and characters that are more than Mario characters, which is perhaps the largest amount of SSB characters a franchise could get.

I'm neither a Geno fan nor an anti-Geno person or whatever, but these are my predictions. Flame me if you want, but flames don't bother me much. I'm seriously bored of them.
