Because I absolutely love Peach? I mean... I MIGHT change my main, I did from 64 to Melee, but only after a few months of adjusting to different characters. I'll try to main Peach at first, but if she ceases to fit my play style, I'll main a different character.

I will still stick to my old favorites, but I just can't resist trying out all these new characters. =D

I will most likely end up with 3 main characters to choose from like I had in Melee.

I dont get why you would want to main the same char,
i main marth in melee but in brawl i main pit and metaknight.
Extreme fail detected.

Why NOT use the same character? If you liked a character then, why would you stop liking that character now?

Please don't try to dictate how the game should be played.

Maining the same character...
Maining a different character...
Maining every character...

As long as you're not doing what people tell you SHOULD be doing, what's the difference? Do what you want and leave other people alone.

I mained Link/Marth in Melee, in 64 i mained Luigi. I will probably be changing to SOnic/Poke'mon Tariner for Brawl, they were my favorite video game characters when i was little.

Switching mains? in CFL
maining the same char for a while instead of playing as different chars gives u more experience and time to work on your mindgames w/ that char

but, in brawl, i will be maining diddy and olimar

bananas and pikmin mindgames FTW

Because people have favorite characters outside of Smash.

I'm a massive Zelda (series) fan and I love Zelda/Sheik as a character. I'm going to play her because I like her.

That being said, I really enjoy playing as both Olimar and PT - so who knows. I'm not going to pick a main until I've had more time with the game.

Choose Sheik back in the day because I thought she was the best character in the game

I remain with Sheik because I want her to be the best character in the game.

That's why.

Thats all i was asking jeez
You didn't need to post another thread though...

You came across like just another one of those haughty casual players who says they hate people for using high tier characters.

Because knowing is half the battle.
G. I. JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOE!


I plan to test all the characters. Initially sticking to my old main (Link) to test the game out, but gradually spreading out until I find something that fits my style better (like I am probably switching to Toon Link and so on).

But most of the characters I am still playing (Link, Ganondorf, Zelda and Marth) are simply because I like those characters. But I am adding many new characters (and ones I didn't play in Melee) to who I plan to try out.
