Would you pay $100 to find out the full roster?

[BluePikmin11]

Just had this idea in my head. So to shout it out, would you pay $100 to find out the full roster?
For me, I definitely can pay, if I had the money..

 

[moneyfrenzy]

No, i would like to find them all out through the nintendo directs and at a steady pace full of awesome trailers. I wouldnt for 10$

 

[Mr.Universe]

I would, if I could learn a character a month. That way I'd be guaranteed some news to look forward to, yet it wouldn't spoil all the surprise.

EDIT: Or every two weeks. Whatever interval as long as it's spread out regularly until release.

 

[Dr. James Rustles]

Absolutely. I could make killer money on bets.

 

[IntelliHeath1]

I would let someone paying for the roster and post it on their news site for free so they can get those clicks.

 

[Luigi player]

Yes, then I'd sell my knowledge for 100 $ per character.

 

[Pyra]

Someone else is going to buy it and reveal the entire roster for free anyway.

 

[TheBakonBitz]

I wouldn't, the surprise of new challenger approaching give me goosebumps, I love it.

 

[moneyfrenzy]

On a side note how many of you guys plan to go into smash 4 having no idea who the secret characters are?

Spoilers in regards to roster aren't important to me. So not me.

 

[Chicago BearHawks]

Spoilers in regards to roster aren't important to me. So not me.

Same. It's a fighting game with a half-assed "story" to it (with no dialouge among the characters, at that), not the next episode of Breaking Bad.

 

[BluePikmin11]

I'm waiting for a certain forum joke to come by..

 

[Fatmanonice]

Even with my crappy, dead end job that's still only about two days worth of a paycheck so... maybe? Oh to be 25 and not going anywhere fast...

 

[Curmudgeon]

It's not worth it, eventually, everybody will know the roster

 

[Mr. Mumbles]

*Pulls out a hundred and surreptitiously drops it on the ground*
Is the big purple in da house?
*Doesn't wait long enough for a response*
I said I need my fix man! I need my fix! IS RIDLEY IN **** IT!

 

[Shorts]

No, I would spend that hundred on something useful.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I would spend the 100 to get the information then turn around and make 500 dollars or more back by placing me some fast bets.

Then use that money to do useful things.

 

[TewnLeenk]

 

[UberMadman]

No, because I'm currently saving up money to buy Super Smash Bros. 4.

 

[Jonn]

I'd rather spend that $100 on buying both versions of the game.

 

[Conis]

If I were hypothetically in a financial situation where I felt comfortable dropping a hundred bucks on something like that, with the knowledge that it was absolutely going to be true, sure why not. It'd be kinda fun knowing ahead of time and also potentially "leaking" the information somewhere to eventually be proven right (assuming no one else is able to pay to obtain it). Probably not REALLY worth it, but what the hell, I've probably made dumber purchases in my life.

Not really sure why anyone would be worried about the spoilers, honestly. In this day and age with the internet and how rapidly information spreads, chances are you're going to find out the roster well before you get the game, unless you go to great lengths to avoid the information (and really, is the surprise worth being forced to a) pretty much not use the internet for a few weeks/months and b) make anyone you know IRL who likes Smash not tell you anything for that period of time as well? I don't think so). At this point, there isn't even really a reason (save tradition) for unlockable characters to be a thing anymorel.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

No, but apparently I would spend it on pokemon action figures​

 

[Lemonwater]

Nah, not worth it. The knowledge won't do you any good anyway.

 

[Vintage Creep]

Lol no. I would love to avoid spoilers, but maybe if it was for free I would. I'm weak.
But a 100? That money is going for the games.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Other than spoilers, heck no. It would have no value as it would just make me more eager for the game's release. And if the roster didn't please me, then I'd just be upset.

 

[Hypercat-Z]

 

[FalKoopa]

I'd rather save $100 for the game itself.

 

[fogbadge]

tell me the exchange rate between dollars and pounds and i'll get back to you




(i'm predominantly joking i rather not have the secret characters spoiled for once)

 

[Admiral Pit]

Rather patiently wait. Besides, the only characters I want are Palutena and Bowser Jr. It wouldn't benefit me to pay that much just to find out bout the roster when I don't have many wants, not to mention there's always patience.

 

[Kamiko]

Ugh...this too hard of a decision. I wouldn't have a problem with the money, but I'm really not sure if I'd WANT to know.

 

[~ Valkyrie ~]

Why is this so important?

I bet you'd have your money wasted when you're not content with the roster you get (which can happen).

 

[DakotaBonez]

Man, I wish I could pay em a hundred bucks to make em put in a character of my choice.

 

[Dark Phazon]

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OP is a Legend omg..i laughed so hard! At the title Looooooooooooool.

And i will play doubble that just to know if Ridley is in..

Naa joking i wouldnt.

 

[Wyoming]

Brawl's Dojo spoiled me too much and the game itself ended up disappointing me a bit because of that. I hope they don't announce too many new characters and keep them a secret, as well as most stages and items.

One of Brawl's flaws was making too many new characters starters and too many veterans a secret character. Marth, Ness, Falcon and maybe Jigglypuff should have been starters with Ike, Lucas, Red and Dedede taking over as secret characters.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

I personally have no problem knowing everything in advance, and I'll definitely follow the leaks when it releases in Japan either way. I'd honestly pay 100$ just to know if Ridley is in or not, or at least I would if those 100$ weren't going to a Wii U in the first place.

 

[SKM_NeoN]

No, I wouldn't pay $100--Not because I don't want spoilers, but because it's a waste of money (unless you can make money with the knowledge, of course. Hypothetical questions like this often come with obscure rules.)

 

[RODO]

I need that money for the game!

 

[Hong]

If the money goes to Nintendo, sure. I don't need a whole lot of it to live.

 

[Chauzu]

Haha.

No.

 

[salaboB]

Where's the option, "No, but I'd take the list for free if it were offered"?
