Unpopular Smash 4 Opinions v2.0 - Read the OP before posting!

* The "nobody cares about this character" relevance argument is stupid and just personal bias, just because you don't care about a character doesn't mean no one else does
* I have no idea why Palutena and Shulk are in the game, nobody cares about them

You just contradicted yourself.

• I wouldn't mind if Young Link returned with a Fierce Deity Final Smash or if Fierce Deity Link were a separate character entirely.
• I would enjoy the inclusion of Beck solely because my Mega Man vs. Mighty No. 9 dream match would become a reality. I highly doubt it'll happen, though.
• I don't see how the Blue Bomber being a part of the Smash 4 roster guarantees that Nintendo would treat the Mega Man franchise better than Capcom has in the past 4 years. By that logic, F-Zero would've had another game by now because Captain Falcon is a series mainstay.
• I don't mind when people use "I'm really feeling it!" to express their excitement or satisfaction, but I'm tired of people replacing "feel" with other verbs that rhyme (deal, meal, reel, steal, etc.).

He also didn't read the OP

 

[War Anvil]

I can't find a single person who thinks the opposite.

I'll make that my claimed unpopular opinion. Oh yes, Master Core.

And I hope to someday experience Master Fortress myself...

 

[hardytack]

The gamepad is better than gamecube controller...

 

[MistressRemilia]

I LIKE DIDDY KONG.
Seriously, i always liked Diddy Kong as a character to begin with, he was cool in DKC2 and Donkey Kong 64, his design is pretty simple yet fun, he can be a bit irritating but not that much.
In such a safe option x defensive game as Smash 4, Diddy as a top tier is kind of a blessing to me. With his bananas & grab game disturbing what would have been even more annoying game to watch.
The fact " everyone " uses it is due to the game being early, it works like that for almost every VS game, don't complain and let the game evolve instead, i'm sure you'll notice your mistake here.

>is overrated, he's middle-class at best
>People over-exaggerated how bad the nerfs were, I think he's still just as good as he was before them
>I don't want to return if they aren't tweaked, they've been incredibly strong in the past 2 games

 

[BridgesWithTurtles]

The 3DS is more comfortable to use as a controller than everything but the GameCube controller and maybe the Pro. It's really not that bad, aside from the important lack of a second stick.

 

[Jeronado]

I don't think Diddy Kong is broken

Meta Knight is not booty butt-cheeks, I honestly don't see him being anything less than high mid-tier

I actually really enjoyed Subspace Emissary. I thought it was really cool how they could tell a story with no dialogue, the character interactions in the cut scenes was something I really enjoyed, and it was fun to play with my brother.

 

[A10theHero]

I don't dislike Sakurai for any Smash-related decisions he made. Sure, I'd prefer if he did certain things, but I respect his choices.

 

[LoveGame]

I don't understand those guys that just post something like "my mains" and it's like 20 characters. Lol

 

[warriorman222]

Sakurai should step down.

For health reasons. Carpal Tunnel, Tendontis, working for morning to late nights every single day too. He needs a good, long, permanent break. He's getting to near Kojima levels of hating making the game. It'd be better for him, and potentially the series if he stepped down and took a break. No selfishness involved here. Just rest.

 

[N3ON]

I'd rather just not have Lucina, Doc, or Dark Pit.

The roster doesn't need padding at this point. They were fine as alts.

This post speaks to me.
Probably because I am one of those people xD

I thought everyone loved Subspace and were disappointed something similar didn't return, lol

I was about to post this, but you posting this instead fills my heart with <3

This is like, the game's most popular opinion outside of Ridley.


Anyway, I think clones are fine, but it honestly depends on who the clone is. Hence I'm fine with Doc(Makes sense, even a new moveset for him would likely share a few moves), would be fine with something like Pichu, wis ambivalent with Dark Pit(I've made numerous movesets for him that share moves with nobody, but he's a canonical clone, so yeah), and absolutely hate Lucina the way she is in this game(Seriously? I know she looks like girl Marth, but still... You didn't need to make her girl Marth, then make her worse in every way outside of usmash. That's almost sexist.), and would hate is Bowser Jr had ended up a clone(Good job putting that Clown Car to use).

Also I think Kirby is more of a Fox clone than Wolf(Shares 9 moves, not 1.5). Therefore Wolf didn't deserve to be cut, because Star Fox needed a 3rd rep, and to be honest, Wolf was more qualified than Krystal.

I don't. Subspace is ambitious, but falls on having many too similar levels that aren't fun to play a second time. Smash 4 gave us character interactions within reveal trailers, and though there's not much of it, I'd rather have that instead of a single-player game that is way too long for its own good, where there is little to make you care about what's going on (the setting especially and the conceit that these characters are 'just here')

Honestly, I'd rather the rework Event Mode with a themed map selection screen, and put some work to group franchise-themed events together. Possibly put smaller cutscenes before and after events.

 

[warriorman222]

This is basicallt what I think: People thought it was so bad, Sakurai had to defend himself in an articled interview.

 

[fabz97]

I dont like how you can use a counter all the time, i know it can be punished but still, it should have an effect eg- 4 times after connecting it doesnt work for a while or whatever

 

[KyroChao]

I would be happy if Fire Emblem had never been represented in smash at all and not become the "gem series" everyone acts it is. If it had gotten mother 3 treatment, i wouldnt care at all. Thats just me, because i get real sick of its praise.

 

[N3ON]

I think that was simply more about why they were largely direct clones, which was seen as a step back from Brawl, not because of the characters themselves.

You want a whole series to get the same treatment as a single game? Which still got a character?

 

[KyroChao]

Nonono, i mean the same treatment in terms of localization AND smash. Like, one rep eventually and cut it off. Sorry if i was vague.

 

[warriorman222]

No, because Fire Emblem is still not finalized in terms of story. They haven't connected all the pieces and brought an end. The story goes over the millenia, so they could make as many games as they like.

 

[MapleWooD]

Oh god, not this whole timeline bs again

MOAR FIRE EMBLEM!!!

MOAR FIRE EMBLEM!!!

We need more Star Fox, hoping this year's Wii U title will be good

 

[KyroChao]

Again, you misunderstand. I'd prefer if the series had stayed in Japan, like mother 3. Before your going to immediately discredit my OPINION, make sure you actually understand what im saying.

 

[MistressRemilia]

MOAR FIRE EMBLEM!!!

God pls no.
Speaking of which, you know what makes me hate a character more than its gameplay? The fanbase
No offense, but the FE fanbase is so awful, i'm sick of them, same goes for TloZ and Sonic, to an extent maybe Mega Man.
And really, FE in itself can just have Marth + Robin, the character are so generic & boring. ( Wow swordmans, original )

Also, i think more 8 bit characters should be included in Smashbros.
Each one of these brings something new, refreshing, and interesting.
Ice Climbers, Game&Watch, ROB & Duck Hunt are all interesting.

 

[Chandeelure]

I want Zombies Ate My Neighbors representation in Smash.

 

[warriorman222]

Oh god, not this whole timeline bs again

I'm not starting anything. What I mean is with the way the game is made in term of story, It never needs to end, unless they force it to.

Again, you misunderstand. I'd prefer if the series had stayed in Japan, like mother 3. Before your going to immediately discredit my OPINION, make sure you actually understand what im saying.

Then make it more clear what you're saying. At one point you said: "one rep, then cut it off. I'm saying I disagree with that, and say why. Mainly because the series isn't abandonned(F-zero) or over(Earthbound).

Also I like FE being not in Japan. If it had stayed there, Lucina and Robin would definetely not be in, and Ike may have possibly been cut, leaving us with one rep, something I don't want because Marth is literally the only FE character I don't like using.

Unpopular opinions, right? This is the thread for them.

 

[KyroChao]

Hence it being my unpopular opinion

 

[warriorman222]

Yeha, I made an edit for that before you evn posted this. Of course your post happens to come out seconds before I finish editing and I look like some idiot trying to be right.

My unpopular opinion will be restated: I don't like using Marth. And I think he should stay speaking Japanese.

 

[KyroChao]

Haha, its fine

 

[BandanaWaddleDee]

Nintendo games are AWesome.
Nintendo fanbases are AWful.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Can you name any fan base that isn't awful? I would very much like to know.

 

[N3ON]

The Smash fanbase is pretty awful. The Pokemon fanbase isn't great. The Star Fox fanbase can get questionable at times. A lot of Nintendo's fanbase itself is entirely too sycophantic, though that's nothing exclusive to just Nintendo's fanbase.

However I don't think the other individual fanbases are that bad.

 

[warriorman222]

Super Smash Br-
*Sees Melee vs Sm4sh wars*
*Sees melee vs Pm wars*
*Sees Pm vs Brawl wars*
* Sees all other fanbase combinations bar 64 wars*
*Sees Ridley wars*

Well, at least compared to other fanbases, we only argue among ourselves. So again, Super Smash br-
*Sees Ridley hater logic*

Never mind. My unpopular opinion: Super Smash Brothers community has got to be the worst one ever, and based by how we act, we don't deserve Sakurai even trying to give us the game we want.

 

[LucasBlitz]

I sort of wish the custom moves were a bit more creative instead of "CHECK OUT THE EXACT SAME MOVE BUT HEAVIER/LIGHTER LOL!!1!". Wouldve been cool to swap Marios fludd with tornado or something but they just stuck to tweaking one move to be either heavier or lighter. Kind of a bummer.
