The Official Scissorman from Clock Tower for Brawl

I am making this thread, for support to have Scissorman in Brawl.



But who is Scissorman? Well he is the main antagonist of the videogame knwon as Clock Tower.

His real name is Bobby Barrows, and he appeared in the very first Clock Tower game for the Super Famicom in Japan. In this game you took control of a girl called Jennifer Simpson, as you walked through a mansion solving puzzles and running and hiding away from Scissorman who appears all of the sudden.

But why place Scissorman instead of Jennifer?

Well this is because that while you control Jennifer, Scissorman is the real star of the game as he is the icon. Also thanks to Clock Tower, it paved the way for horror survival games since it appeared before Resident Evil, the problem is that Clock Tower was not released outside of Japan, so it is not as known as its sequels (which hold a different continuity) outside of Japan.

Clock Tower is a classic which was born on a Nintendo console, that is a good reason why it deserves to be in Brawl, plus Scissorman deserves to represent more the horror game gener than someone from Resident Evil like Leon or Jill.

Problem is that Capcom now holds the rights for Clock Tower, and so if I had to choose between Mega Man and Scissorman I would pick the blue bomber (or someone more representative of Capcom like Ryu), but still Scissorman should be over anyone of Resident Evil as it needs to top origin over popularity.

Some say that Scissorman using his sicssors would not work on Brawl, but he could use them the same way as other characters use their swords, to hack and slash; I can also imagine him throing them and coming back like a boomerang. For his final smash, I can imagine his giant baby brother Dan Barrows coming over to the arena crushing everyone.

And so that is it for now, please don't come to flame since Vesperview said he would come to do so, and I know that at these heights he may not have a chance, but I had to stand uo and mention Scissorman; I had to try.

Oh I forgot, here are some support stickers:

Well he is mostly recognizable in Japan, but yes outside of it; the other Scissormen are more known as their games appeared out of Japan. But Bobby was the original one to star in the games, and in a Nintendo console, reason to have chances in Brawl.

Well I won't argue with you. I'm looking at your sig and see only one character likely to be in Brawl. Then again, I should talk. I know the character in my sig doesn't have the greatest of chances either. So carry on.

Yeah, DoC is right...there's no point in arguing...everyone is entitled to their opinion (as long as they don't offend people *looks @ Commander Blitzkreig's location/sig*), and there are less likely characters than Scissorman
(anyone who knows me knows what I'm about to say)

Are you talking about Mega Man? Also I think Dark Samus does have a good chance.

Oh and here is the cover which is proof that Clock Tower was a Super Famicom game. Only that back then its company was the now defunct Human.

Well for me DS seems as a more easy to play character than Ridley. But yeah, Ridley is the most popular right now.

Wow just wow, to even think he has the smallest chance of making it... pathetic.
Well that is just what you think. Vesperview you won't make me live in fear as I will express myself; if anything you are the one who is pathetic for having such a closed mind. While I know he has no chance, I had to dare to give my opinion.

And I can personally respect that...as said before, who can judge another's opinion...unless it is either offensive or incredibly pointless...besides, while Scissorman has little to no chance, he'd be pretty cool...maniacal scissor-wielding guy FTW!!

I know it is not you cinder, no need to say that; I am talking about Vesperview who has no life and just keeps flamming me all over the boards to to scare me, when he is just some 17 year old punk while I am older than him. Not to mention that he has been agains Scissorman since day one because he hates the Clock Tower games.

lol, I remember he once said that a thread on Scissorman won't get passed the first page.

"while Scissorman has little to no chance, he'd be pretty cool...maniacal scissor-wielding guy FTW!!"

Thanks you made my day.

Please, don't be such a pathetic hypocrite, stop playing victim, you were begging me to post in this stupid thread by bringing me up in the first post, you've been wanting to see me banned for a long time, you're pathetic and really, really need a life.

Scissorman, won't even be a sticker and this thread is just waste of bandwidth.

Vesperview, please stop being a pathetic whatever-you-are.

What is your contribution to life besides being a pitifully unintelligent mongoloid? Nothing - exactly why I must ask that you close your account. Or get banned. Either one should be fine.

After all, smashboards could use a few less worthless troll scumbags.

Oh, and just thought I should make the point that he didn't invite you to flame. He said that you would flame without invitation.

Like you?

You have no idea what this guy has been doing to get on my nerves since a couple of months ago, so don't even start to defend him.

Dude...what's got you so pissed? Can a guy not give his opinion? Just settle down...this thread isn't a waste as I see it...it's well put together, and supports a character that is more likely than some *coughkinnikumancough*...at least this idea is reasonable...

@Tlaloc: no prob...and I know you're not talking to me...I just decided to jump in, which I do a lot >.<

If he believed that you would flame, I don't see why he shouldn't mention you by name.

Stop derailing the thread. I don't give a crap what idiotic tift you two have, this is a legitimate thread that doesn't need derailing.

Hey...why don't we all just take a chill pill? While Vesperview may have been a bit harsh he DOES have a right to say what he wants...he shouldn't be threatened with bans or things like that just because you dislike his way of dealing with threads/character ideas he dislikes, if you don't like his opinion, ignore him and he won't post in the thread again. But that's not even the point of this topic. This like all other character threads is to discuss characters we like, not to yell at each other...

On topic...Scissorman...while I never actually played the game...I don't really know how he'd be more deserving then a Resident Evil character. Clock Tower moved on to the Playstation while Resi has been an equal mix of Sony and Nintendo. Personally I'd much rather see a Resi-rep then Scissorman...or any other 3rd party character...but that's just me.

Er, yes, he should.

If he is using offensive posts and derailing a thread, then that's trolling. Trolling, in some cases, is a bannable offense.

The fact of the matter is that we've started discussing a flame war rather than the subject, therefore, thread was derailed.

You care so much that you started a flame war.

And yeah, I'm certain that his intention was to simply express his opinion - after all, I call any thread I don't like "pathetic".

Ruin the thread? As if it had any potential to begin with, I really don't care about this thread or Scissorman or Clock Tower, if the guy is going to mention me in the first post, he should just suck it up and so should you.
Hey Vesper, what's the link to that Kamekians sig you have?

You're still ignoring the fact that I said you didn't have to reply to his "trolling." I've tried a few times now to get this thread back on track for the original poster's sake but you keep the flame war going just as much as Vesperview does so you can't really blame him...

You're the one meddling in other people's business, I made that remark about Scissorman about four months ago, it was completely irrelevant to even bring it up.
