@ Célja Célja
I just wanted to say how much I love your signature, it looks VERY nice if I do say so myself!
Thank you c:


I'm actually thinking of editing this up a bit but I'm a little too lazy right now and don't feel like spending hours in Gimp. I'll probably just do what I normally do and spend hours taking photos in Smash instead.

AFAIK, Lucina's portrayal varies depending on the region, so in the Western versions, she's pretty condescending to Marth and Ike if they lose to her, while in the Japanese version, she's still the usual, respect others character we're used to. :p

But yeh, I'm not a fan of a lot of Smash's character portrayal. Like... "angry" Mario for example.

Could you blame him. He has to show up happy everytime. Can the man just be serious for once


Not everyone can be :4pacman:

I'm not a fan of Mario in Smash, either. He's pretty happy and expressive in his games, but here he is just so serious and angry. Melee got it right with him.

My least favorite portrayal is by far Ganondorf. His moveset isn't accurate to his character; he has a few moves that he has in the games, like his forward aerial and forward tilt, but the moveset isn't Ganondorf.

Smash always got :4pikachu: right, hilariously enough
iirc they said they wanted to make the characters look closer to what they look in game, but, y'know...

Meanwhile, Falco pretty much stays as an *** like he does in Star Fox and to me, becomes more Jojo-like with his side and down taunt and victory poses. Seriously, who magestically stands on one foot and says, "Get some", while having his hand close to his face? Marth becomes more fabulous in Smash than in his own games, right?

But the Ganondorf face, though. Some people just need to let loose and have fun. :p

I search "chrom ice cream" and this pops up. @Matsushi.
One part of me wants to let you share it with Mat. The other half wants to claim it for his own because it looks strangely interesting and to have it in the hopes that Sushi-senpai will notice him.

He got to be srs in Mario Strikers, but see it fit there cause everyone was serious/angry! In Smash, it just... feels out of place. He can be happy and kick butt just like he does in like SMG or somethin' lol

Melee did get ti right, but I think it's mostly due to him still having his "super happy" SM64 voice. xD
I didn't like Brawl Mario's voice, too stoic for me.

Too bad Mewtwo is kinda... bad. :p Viable, but not completely viable.

I agree. I liked his voice in Melee far more than in Brawl because it portrayed him as a cheerful character. Brawl Mario... is a bit too stoic indeed.

And thank god that Luigi got his voice in Brawl. His sped up Mario voice annoyed me and I question why it was like this.

YES, 64/Melee Luigi's voice not being his actual voice but a sped-up version of Mario's was irksome. >__>
Brawl did his voice good justice (by actually giving it to him). Who knows why honestly.

Don't forget about japan:metaknight:>:4metaknight: Though most of the japanese characters sound better imo (except the Pokemon of the Pokemon Trainer...)

Speaking of japanese characters though, I love how Falcon still speaks full english in the Japanese version of the game.

That's because Falcons VA is a Japanese man (forgot his name) speaking english.

Ehh, I still prefer English voices for :4myfriends::4robinm::4robinf::4shulk:&:4lucario:.

Also I hate how inconsistent with character like :4mario::4luigi::rosalina::4peach::4lucas:&:4zss: for english voices but :4littlemac: of all characters have a Japanese voice actor

English SSB4 Fox? "FAIIYUH"
Brawl Fox was the best voice for the character imo.

I enjoy the Japanese Falcos cause they sounds manly AF, but my favorite is English Brawl Falco cause his accent is god-like

Atleast Doc Louis still has his English actor. The Japanese gu ly who voices him really sucks honestly.

What... Is... Whatever... Well, Ganondorf already has the fabulous hair part covered.

Listen to your little angel... don't give into the dark side even though they have cookies.

Anyway, ZSS has always been a weird one to me. I get it, she's supposed to be the gymnastics, athletic, flexible, agile fighter *cough*Sheik*cough*, but really, what's with the dominatrix vibes? The victory pose where she lifts her leg up and just grunts? Uh, please leave that in the gym when you're stretching, Samus... I don't need to see crotch for a victory pose. AND then there's her shooting pose. In Brawl, it looked stupid and in Smash 4, it looks stupid. Can't they do something like this?


Instead, we get a really generic shooting pose that exposes ZSS's front. Shooting like that makes your center mass an easy target.


And whatever the hell shooting position this is. Yes, I know, Wolf and Falco's look stupid as well, but stupid in a cheesy, 80's, wannabe gangster, campy way compared to ZSS. It helps that they're not human, so Wolf and Falco doing stupid stuff doesn't register as weird at times.


Utilt is okay from a capoeira-esque aspect, but sometimes, I feel like it's just fanservice. Dem legs... Her freaking jab, dash attack, and Side Smash ****** me off from a martial arts stand point. One, what are you even doing for a jab? ZSS, you're better off doing a backfist with your left hand followed by a double roundhouse like Shaheen in Tekken 7. Man, does this kick look flashy and athletic, huh? Nope, instead, she does a backhand, pistol whip, and a weird elbow. I already ranted about dash attack and Side Smash involving ZSS's spine probably dying. Yes, you're a super soldier, but with those jet heels, I don't think your spine likes being forced to endure even more stress...

She has been in space for a long time, so I don't think her spine is much of a problem.

I think in terms of characteristics, :4sonic: is one of the best portrayed, even more so in Brawl.

My least favorite portrayal is by far Ganondorf. His moveset isn't accurate to his character; he has a few moves that he has in the games, like his forward aerial and forward tilt, but the moveset isn't Ganondorf.
As a huge Zelda fan, don't even get me started on this.

Wrong character

Wrong again!

aka the poopy version
If I was a Mother/Earthbound fan, I'd maybe agree with you...but I'm not.

Also, does Lucas live after the ending of Mother 3, or was it all a dark and twisted dream? I checked it out, and was super confused.

I don't know, Robin at least can talk. And gets girls like Link gets Heart Containers.

Besides, I like Male Robin's VA. He sounds like a pretty cool guy. Like the type you'd read about in books.
the only reason robin gets girls is because he works in a team. Link flys solo and still gets more digits.
