Third Party Characters, The Definitive Choices

[A Link to the Snitch]

Slime is the most likely Square Enix representative. You may not think so, but you're viewing it from a slanted perspective.

 

[shadenexus18]

Rayman doesn't have a shot in hell of making it!

Megaman and Pacman on the other hand, do. They're just the right choices. Either way their will be alot of $ to go around if they both make it in, but even that is doubtful.

Not this **** again...

 

[A Link to the Snitch]

I didn't know fact was a bad word.

 

[The Great Tama]

Either Megaman or Bomberman sounds right. I don't want Rayman in if we have Skapon. I'd rather have Skapon anyway.

 

[Musica Amante]

I didn't know fact was a bad word.

For as popular as Slime is supposed to be, I don't remember him being mentioned in Sakurai's blog even once.

Geno on the other hand was mentioned like five times.

I don't think Slime is the most likely S-E rep by any means.

 

[ParamoreRiot]

What about Sora?

A poll directed at Nintendo fans...

Am I supposed to be shocked that a Mario character is more popular among Nintendo fans than an Enix character?

forget it! leon scott kennady is IN BRAWL!!!! you all stink!

 

[courte]

bomberman and pacman got nothing, just as much as ray man

that's just my opinion flame it if you want

personally i see geno and Megaman duking it out, the rest making stage cameos if at all

 

[vesperview]

what kind of idiot wants rayman in brawl. get lost.

Wow and you bumped a year old thread to say that? GTFO you stupid n00b.

And to all of you, this thread is over a year old, I'm not even beginning to update it, specially 2 weeks before the release, so let it die, ok thanks.

What about the recent news that pretty much deconfirms Megaman?

Sora has a high chance too, contrary to popular belief.

And the others couldn't make stage cameos, its either they're in as a playable character or they're not in at all.

 

[TheGlitchMaster]

leon kennedy! if you say no, you are a fool!!!

 

[vesperview]

leon kennedy! if you say no, you are a fool!!!

STFU! Thinking he is a shoe in for an IMDB listing, you're the only fool around here.

 

[TheGlitchMaster]

noo! i think that he is awesome and has a chance.....okay, fine he has no chance....i guess i'll go with sora...

Who do you think this game is made for?

 

[tirkaro]

no. it does not.

as emphisized many times before: geno is a mario character godammit. He wouldn't count as an actual 3rd party.

 

[A Link to the Snitch]

Who do you think this game is made for?

Yeah, Sakurai put in Sonic and Snake for Nintendo fans, not Sega or Konami fans.

 

[Xanderous]

Sweet, dude.

 

[hungrybum]

pacman is god to the video games, he is becoming less popular but still is the biggest video game character, the ONE who started it all. He then produced mario-christ who will die for our sins as obsessed gamers

 

[Kips]

I'd expect Pacman to have something really original up his sleeve. If I had my choice though... Viki all the way. But Pacman seems really innovative and strange- Almost like G&W?

 

[Xanderous]

Please no Pacman.

 

[vesperview]

Please no Pacman.

I have yet to see a good argument against Pacman and no one has one.

 

[hungrybum]

he is ugly and non-original/sacarsm
and can't do anything exept drive cars

 

[hello_kitty]

I don't think there is a definitive choice, becuase we don't know if another 3rd party owner bragged Sakurai to instert their character in Brawl, out of those Bomberman seems like the good choice.

 

[PIT_IS_BACK]

We cant decide on what we will all pic and agree on.


But I know that we ALL agree that none of us want Rayman in.

I never said I wanted Rayman in, but his latest games in the Wii have been very successful so he is a possibility.

 

[tafutureboy]

Sora...but heres an analisis of all your choices

megaman-started on the NES...capcom and nintendo have good relations, possible move set

Bomberman-i no nothing about him except that he was in a recent game and he was all high tech, idk

rayman-isnt raving rabids enough for now

pac-man: moveset? didnt think there was one either

Sora- On a nintendo system(about to be three), musician for KH on the musicians page, SE and Nintendo have shakey relations

 

[vesperview]

Before anyone else throws the old "no moveset" argument just watch this video and think before you post!

[The Great Tama]

1.) Megaman, Rayman, Bomberman, then Pacman. That's my order. I just don't think Pacman would make an interesting enough character.

 

[EggBomb]

I think that The Prince (from Prince of Persia Series) would be a much better Ubisoft rep than Rayman would be. His games were some of the most successful and groundbreaking ones. I know he's more of a serious character, but so is Snake...plus his moves could incorporate the sands of time making him incredibly unique to the smash series!

 

[Sailus]

Kain, from Final Fantasy IV.

What makes him a definitive choice?

He can JUMP very high.

[Johnknight1]

I can make the MegaMan game list longer!

*Mega Man X - Super Nintendo
*Megaman X2 - Super Nintendo
*Megaman X3 - Super Nintendo
*Megaman Zero - Game Boy Advance
*Megaman Zero 2 - Game Boy Advance

Ya...you get the point. Also, I think it was proper NOT TO COVER SQUARE ENIX! Don't want a flame war-as they have no mascot, Geno is like 2 3/4th party, and so on. Great evaluationg-but Megaman steals the show. In fact, no one else really stands a chance except Geno. Final Fantasy has no star, Dragon Quest has no star, heck...even Kingdom Hearts is losing it's "star" in the next two games. Sora will only star 2 1/2 of the 5 games....1/2 starred by Riku, 1 starred by Roxas, and 1 starred by 3 new characters. Therefore-Geno is the most "logical" conclusion of a choice-but that's debateable.

@ EggBomb
But the Prince isn't as well-known. He's got popularity, has good games, and so on, but he's only a B-class known name. Rayman is A class, and his series is better known, more popular (especially with his two recent ggames being two of the only good party games EVER), and he is getting more momentum for him. However, nothing beats the blue bomber. "The fighting robot....MEGAMAN!"

As for no moveset for Pac-man....WHAT? ANYONE CAN HAVE A MOVESET! Fox, Falco, Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff, Dr. Mario, the Pokémon Trainer, Pikmin and Captain Olimar, and so on have complicated movesets, or not much based off their games. So it isn't that crazy...but Pac-man is basically dead, and that's a fact.

Megaman still has fanbase, but he's dying, and so is Sonic. But their amazing fanbase size basically makes it to where they shall be forever popular-but if their series keep going downhill, they won't be as "big". However, the reason so many people want Sonic and Megaman in Brawl (this is just one reason, and I agree with this reason, and is part of why I wanted them) is that their recent games suck, or aren't that good. Brawl imortalizes them, and could possible be their last good game for a long while-or even forever. AAA-class fighters imobolized forever because of Brawl...that's pretty cool. Plus them fighting off in one game...hehe. Gets me excited. >_> Megaman vs. Sonic vs. Snake vs. Mario = PWNAGE!

 

[Kips]

I feel that a more underrated but high quality game should get the 3rd Party Slot.
*CoughSuikodenCough*

 

[NessFan2]

I have two
Rayman
Megaman

 

[Firefalcon]

megaman is good
I also like klonoa better than pac-man as namco's representative

 

[Kips]

Well if each company only gets one representative, I'm boned. Suikoden belongs to Konami and so does Metal Gear Solid. Crap!

 

[Undrdog]

You know... There's a new "Tails of Symphonia" game being released for the Wii. Tie in the fact that Lloyd Irving from ToS was included in the Wii's recent release, "Soul Calibur Legends" and suddenly he doesn't seem so far out there.

However, even though Lloyd will be featured in the new ToS release he won't be the main character. Perhaps an attempt to push the new game by including the main character?

Also note that the ToS OVA (anime) is being released in Japan and is slated for distribution in the U.S. very soon. Namco is pushing Lloyd and ToS as much as they can right now and Namco's relationship with Nintendo has been very strong recently.

Finally Namco has even hinted towards the multi-console release of Soul Calibur 2 that they were excited to have Link. I honestly think that if Namco gets this final slot it will be a Tales or SC character as appose to Geno or Pac-Man.

 

[super-7]

bomberman is my most wanted third party. i could care less for pacman and rayman

 

[Xanderous]

I don't have an argument against Pacman, except that nobody really wants him in. And popularity is a big part of it.
