While I'm a little bummed over losing Wolf (Hopefully Fox or Falco will have custom opitions that ape his playsytle) overall I'm mostly impressed.
DK getting the short end is a royal bummer and while I can understand not wanting to bring attention to Metroid for a while due to Other M being well, Other M and Kid Icarus and Kirby having the most love due to Sakurai having worked on them I do have to take slight issue with Meta Knight, but I have hope he'll be around tolerable levels here. I think this could be the definitive Smash. The characters seem balanced so far, we have 46 or so characters to use, a speed that's faster than Brawl, LOADS of stuff to find.... I'd go on but I'll make it shortband sweet: We could be looking at the game that may overthrow Melee and challenge Project M. That's a pretty big deal and I'llbe there to get my two games ASAP. |

Didn't they confirm that they nerfed Meta Knight?
I can't say for certain since I can't cite my source of where I heard that, but I'm fairly certain they did.

There's absolutely no need to get so hostile, I just don't see the problems you do. Maybe there's more things included from certain games, but I don't see any kind of hidden agenda or attempt to push certain franchises over others in some grand conspiracy.
-Wolf and Lucas I expained in my last post. I'll also remind you that back when Wolf was announced for Brawl, people were just as furious as they are with Dark Pit. -Ice Climbers seem to be gone due to hardware limitations. Considering all the transformation characters were switched to separate characters, that seems pretty believable. -Squirtly/Ivysaur were MORE Pokemon and MORE gen 1 Pokemon, which is part of the reason I think we've lost Mewtwo as well. I love both of them, but we don't need that many Pokemon and if we do, there should be a bit more variety. They were never going to be in without the Pokemon Trainer, Greninja and Charizard were just better selections. Of course I see there's problems with the roster and of course there's characters I would have liked to see included, I just think there's a ridiculous amount of childish rage over it that's completely unnecessary. But I still think the bias towards Kid Icarus is painfully obvious and I don't think the rage is "childish" so much as "completely justified". I honestly think that half the frustration would be gone had he just made Dark Pit an alt like he should be. I know Dark Pit probably isn't "stealing roster slots" or anything, but giving him as much fanfare as a proper newcomer in the game is very testing. |

Sorry about being hostile. I agree I was a little too aggressive over a video game character. Chalk it up to insanity from watching the streams for an inhumane amount of time, I guess.

Pit, Palutena and Dark Pit were constantly ranked very highly in Japanese character polls (Pit himself typically taking the no.1 spot). It wouldn't surprise me if that was the reason for the series getting so much attention here, more than anything else.
Let's just be glad Waluigi never made it in, considering he was frequently there too |

You know who I would've killed for?
I'm sure everyone does at this point. I've only been screaming for him for 2 years

Let's just be glad Waluigi never made it in, considering he was frequently there too Anyway, here's some new info regarding Final Smashes that no one's mentioned here: -Dark Pit's Final Smash is a "clone" of Zelda/Sheik's. He pulls out his gun and fires in a straight line, with a slow-mo close up of those caught in the line of fire before launching them away. -ROB has a new Final Smash very similar to Samus'. He fires a huge beam across the stage. -Ness' PK Starstorm Final Smash has been redesigned. It is now very similar to Lucario's old Aura Storm. The meteors form a beam in the center of the stage that can be tilted towards enemies. -Charizard's Final Smash is the same as Yoshi's outside of a new physical attack. Mega Charizard X flies around and can either shoot fire balls (Fire Blast- they explode into the "Dai" Kanji) or charge opponents. It only lasts 15 seconds. -Lucario's new Mega Lucario Final Smash is very similar to Wario's. For a short time his attacks are super powered. Footage of Dark Pit, Ness and Charizard FS: As for who should've been there, Ridley is the obvious candidate. The demand for him as a playable character is huge. Nintendo seems to thrive on doing their own thing instead of actually listening to their customers and providing what is wanted. Dixie Kong also deserved to be in the game. Also... Bayonetta was made for Smash. It'd have been the perfect way to solidify her new Nintendo-exclusive position as well as be the coolest character on the roster. And since we're listing our wishes, either Skull Kid and Birdo along with Bayonetta would be my "if I got to choose any character no matter what, it'd be them" options. When it comes to the roster, I find myself... Satisfied. It certainly isn't what I hoped for and certainly doesn't come close to achieving its full potential, but its not downright crap like the other recent super-hyped Nintendo game; Mario Kart 8. There's infuriating roster choices like Dark Pit and awful cuts like Ice Climbers (and Ivysaur... Sniff) but it doesn't have crap like Metal Mario, Pink Gold Peach, five babies and NINE cut unique characters. Quote:
Depressing fact: "Toon Zelda" and "Toon Sheik" are listed in Brawl as two characters that were never finished (along with Roy, Mewtwo, Dr. Mario, Dixie Kong and Plusle and Minun). I imagine "Toon Sheik" was Tetra... New vid with everyone's Final Smashes: Last edited by Baltan II; 09-12-2014 at 11:15 PM.. |
