What could top snakes codec calls?

Maybe Pit could have some chats over skype with palutena, about there opponent. It is sakurai's franchise after all.

Doc Louis talking to Mac about his opponent. KI characters chatting with each other. Support conversations between Fire Emblem characters. Supporty chats between Shulk and other Xenoblade characters. Cranky's Tips for DK and Diddy. More chats with Starfox characters like always.

I'll be honest, losing those witty Codecs is going to hurt; I'll miss them.

However, there are a few other ways in which it could be replaced:

- Doc Louis and Little Mac are one of them. This would be particularly fitting on the Boxing Ring stage and they would discuss their enemy together. The enemy's appearance, unique attributes and possibly the enemy's origin could be discussed between the coach and boxer.
- Pit in Palutena's Temple is another possible option. Pit would call upon Palutena, who would use her divine powers / knowledge to give Pit the scoop on all of the fighters. Palutena is often portrayed as a chatty-Cathy so to speak, so this wouldn't surprise me; this scenario would be the most likely of the ones I have here, given Sakurai's bias.
- Star Fox could have something of this sort, but the majority of the interventions of Slippy and the gang are battle logs, no knowledge about enemies was conveyed in Melee / Brawl. So I don't see this scenario likely, especially seeing how deprived Star Fox is this time around.
- Fire Emblem characters is another possible scenario, where Chrom and a few others appear on one of the FE stages to give tips about the enemy.
- I'd be absolutely ecstatic for an old-school Cranky Kong pow-wow where he comes out of his cabin on the Donkey Kong stage, complains about the racket going on, insults everyone on the stage with witty comments, and then gives a little insight on the enemy's past to either Donkey or Diddy (or both) Kong. Sadly, this is a pipe-dream, I don't see this happening. The old Cranky seems to be gone with the wind of Rareware.
- Shulk and his friends is another one, although I don't know enough about the Xenoblade series to know what that'd be like. The little I've seen of the cut-scenes though suggests that something could definitely be done here though.

I'd prefer the first or fifth scenarios personally, but given Sakurai's boner for Pit and Palutena bias, expect the 2nd one, if anything at all. There is a chance that the 4th one with FE characters could happen though.

Not a huge fan of novelty but if anything the little Doc Louis blurbs from Punch Out!! is all I can think of.

I had really enjoyed the idea of, if Paper Mario were to be in the game, having Goombario/Goombella use Tattle on other fighters. I think it would have been clever and potentially quite humorous. But alas...

It'll probably be Pit (And possibly Dark Pit?) and Palutena. Knowing how Uprising had pretty much constant conversation between them about various things, mainly their enemies, it fits. Plus Sakurai.

My current ideal would be Fire Emblem though. Robin speaks with Chrom/Lissa/Frederick/whoever about their opponent. That'd be freaking awesome.

 

[MAtgSy]

Pit & Palutena is a given. There's just so much chatter in KIU to not have it carry over to SSB.

 

[MagnesD3]

More Snake Codec calls.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Robin Support conversations? I'd be down to clown with that.

 

[Wanderer from Roseyard]

Link having an extended soliloquy about his foe. Just to be shocking, and all.

 

[Xermo]

Selecting Ness and resulting in random matches freezing so that his father can call him.

Palutena IS playable, so how could she do some "Skype" with Pit when she fighting against him?

 

[Wintropy]

The Divine Peanut Gallery trading witty quips with each-other about the respective merits of each fighter. Especially entertaining when Pit and Palutena are actually fighting!

Doc Louis giving Little Mac advice on his opponents and the best ways of taking them on. It'd also give sound information on the quirks and foibles of every character's fighting style.

 

[mini paincakes]

Selecting Ness and resulting in random matches freezing so that his father can call him.

It would also give you the option to end the game the game because you're playing too much. Instant victory for Ness.

I am going to miss those codec calls from the Metal Gear Series. sigh.... maybe its a Wii-U exclusive? jejej *dreaming*
