Hmmm so who gets updated first? We have two Vets that STILL have yet to be revealed (poor luigi and Falcon) but then we have Krystal, and even some people are thinking Ridley will be the next. I'm still all for Krystal next week, but maybe she wont be the only one revealed..... two characters sound good?

Yeah that was supposed to be Falcon, not falco.... i'll change that.
And people just expect the Vets, to see whose coming back or who got axed(wheres ness??). I do want to see Ganon's character model though, it should look pretty cool. Jiggs... I don't mind waiting for.
Of course it's more exciting to see a newcomer though.

the newest character update was a newcomer right? then wouldn't the next update probably be a vet?

i'm not even going to attempt to make a prediction. This could go anywhere. Ridley, Luigi, Krystal, Bowser Jr., everything from last weeks updates and everything thats coming up says one of these guys is announced next. I honestly think Luigi is the vet thats next in line for a character update with Galaxy coming around the corner for the U.S.

Just a small question, if (when) Krystal makes it into Brawl, how should she look? She'll easily have her facial appearance from Star Fox command but should she have the outfit she had in Adventures, Assault, or Command? Personally, I liked the flight jacket that she in Command when she was going solo for awhile, the one she had in Assualt is too similar to what ZSS wears, and the Adventures one may be too risque for Brawl. Any thoughts?

no fox is sopposed to be his assault(sp?) rendered to fit brawl.. and Krystal's biggest game (i think) was adventures even though she didnt really do much, she steared the whole game the way it went

A certain Krystal fan...who shall remain nameless...told me how Krystal would best be suited for combat wearing her Adventures attire. The reasoning behind this was that Krystal's mobility would be affected by the high heels she wears with her Assault outfit. :)

At first I was taken aback at the notion of Krystal's Assault uniform not being suitable for Brawl combat, but after giving it some thought, I'd have to agree. Looking at Peach and Zelda....its clear high heels aren't the best things to wear to a battle. :chuckle:

If Jigglypuff is announced this week, I'll laugh and be angry at the same time. Still, I hope Sakurai replaces Jigglypuff with another character.

The latter is definitely better than the former, but I don't see why one of them can't just be an alternate costume. I mean, everyone else has an alt.

Props for the mock up

Chances are, Krystal (and Falco too) will have their Command attire. Because of this, her moves may not be what we expect. Then again, no one expected Dedede to pull enemies out of his a**.

On NO!!!!!! The Command Suit Krystal has is the worst of them all:



If she has that suit I'm not even gonna try playing with her in Brawl once.
I see nothing wrong with it. The Adventure one is much worse. It seems out of place in the scheme of Starfox.

Adventures is a canon Starfox game so why does Krystal's Adventure look seem out of place in the scheme of Starfox? This must be your personal opinion. Not all of the action took place in the skies.

Canon doesn't matter. The attire does not match the themes set in Starfox. Krystal wears a sort of triable outfit (best name I can think of) in Adventure. In Assult and Command she wears a more futuristic/pilot outfit. As such, her latter designs are more akin to the Starfox universe, and makes her a part of the team.

No no no, canon does matter, Krystal looks out of place with her command or assault suits, her first and most unique appearance is the Adventures one, she was never meant to fit the Star Fox series, she was just added to the cast after adventures for a much needed female character, so stop kidding yourself.

and the command suit is the worst one, even the assault one is better.

No Canon doesn't matter because it can be changed at any time. It's only cannon fodder for Fanboys and will all be f***ed up in the end. Look at the Donkey Kong franchise. Cranky isn't the monkey from Donkey Kong. DK and the monkey from Donkey Kong are the same now. Thus, the canon has been changed.

In Adventure, she looks 100% out of place. Heck, Adventure was out of place. Krystal was the only good thing that came out of that game. Adventure is considered the worse of the Starfox games, and put a bad taste in everyones mouths. Besides being a mediocre game, it brought nothing that was symbolic of the franchise. Krystal's looks in Assault and Command adhere to how the franchise is suppose to be. It's not about collecting nuts for dinosaurs. It's about flying in Spaceships and shooting things. Krystals designs are that of a female pilot, but is also futuristic (which was common in the Assault designs). I feel these designs fit her personality better. She seemed a bit hallow in the Adventure ones (to me at least).

What gets me is why do people dislike the Command one. Its essentially the same as the Assault, except it's purple and doesn't look like leather. It is more fitting for the franchise. I will say I pray to God she doesn't have her Adventure design in Brawl (which probably wont be a problem). She will really feel out of place. If you want to talk about canon, she will be breaking canon by being in another design as this is suppose to be the characters post Command.

So, what is the exact reason you guys hate the Command design.

What the hell does that DK example mean? It didn't make sense.

In case you didn't know, Adventures wasn't supposed to be a Star Fox game, it was supposed to be called Dinosaur Planet and have Krystal as it's only lead, that's Krystal's game even if she became a space bounty hunter like Fox in the next game, she is still the same character from Dinosaur Planet, continuity is not a factor here.

It is not more fitting to the franchise and it certainly isn't more fit for Krystal, stop arguing that, no one wants her shooting laser guns and having a reflector in her belt, people want her staff and her unique moveset, that's pretty much why most people or at least almost all of us in this thread hate the assault costume and the command costume, not to mention Command truly is the worst Star Fox game of the franchise.

You should read. It's that canon changes. In the days of old, DK and the money from Donkey Kong (the ARCADE GAME) were not the same. Crankey Kong was from the Donkey Kong games. But now, DK and the arcade one are the same. Canon changes.

But, heck it is now. But, not, she is not the same character. The one from Dinosaur planet was a cat for one. That alone makes them different. Sure, stupid, but it shows they have to compensate for Starfox. They changed the game, so if they failed to make the nessiaray changes, then it's there faults.

How is it more fitting to the franchise. It's not. No way no how. It's more fitting for her to have her most current design. It's more fitting for her to fit the design the others characters have. It's more fitting her her to not look out of place in the Starfox stuff.

Just because she looks like Command doesn't mean she still can't use her staff. She can still use it, but having her have that particular design just to use a weapon that she can use with another design is a bit redundant.

And, no, Adventure is worse then Command. Adventure sucked. It was the game that showed Rare was going down the drain. It proves good graphics and music don';t make the game. Limited combat, not to mention far between, strange set-up and not to mention no actually flying. In fact, Command was liked because it brought back the Arwing.

So you want her to use the Adventures staff with the command suit? talk about irony and being out of place. lol

and just because Adventures is not your typical Star Fox game doesn't make it the worst of the series, what were you expecting if you have dinosaurs and Fox holding a staff? Command is the worst one, it's the worst seller and the worst reviewed title of the franchise, the only props fans give it is that it put Fox back in his arwing.

Pink outfit = WILL NOT PLAY AS. Granted I can change the color, but it's still a horrid look for her.

I will say I enjoyed Command. I liked the drama it had. However everything in terms of visual presentation was horridly flawed IMO. It had good points, and graphics and design wasn't to be found in that list.

So as we were all saying except you, Krystal would fit most in Brawl with her staff. If you want out of place, use her Command/Assault outfits with the staff. Nope, not meshing in -my- brain. I think it's a poor match, and any claims of her Adventures outfit being of a poor design are foolish and uneducated. Coming from one who spent countless hours examining her outfit for a reference sheet, I'll tell you something. That outfit makes FAR more sense as a whole than any other outfit I've come across that actually has detail to it. Each piece compliments the others. And I've -ALWAYS- found it to be a complete waste that it was discarded with her markings. Look at her face in Command. Look at her tail. Do you see white on her tail? NO. Do you see white on her neck. NO. Do you see anything about her face that actually looks like it was originally designed. HELL NO. Because they completely have ****ed everything up about her.

Krystal used to have an amazing character design with a lot of thought put into it. Now she's degraded into something that Nintendo Power themselves called a blue cat. A ****ing cat. So "canon" can go **** themselves. Also, you can't call a **** thing about Command canon anyway because of the pure fact that it has 9 endings, none of which are productive for the life of the series ANYWAY.

I'm hoping with all my heart she has her Adventures design so that they can breathe new life into what her design once held. That they can return her to having blended fur with white on more than a circle of her face. So that she can have her markings. And so that she can actually look dignified. And if you say the tribal look wasn't dignified, then you've been listening to to much bull**** lately, because Assault was just as bad, if not worse. It had no tact.

K. Done ranting. Sorry for cursing :p
