A COM restricted to a single character that increases its AI by playing against it!" can further empty their pockets into Nintendo's. Such a waste of money and time that you just know will soon become an integral part of Nintendo's business.

I was assuming that the stupid COM gimmick wasn't the only thing those pieces of plastic had to offer, that there was some great secret that was yet to be revealed. But nope. That's it. Its a single character COM that slowly increases its AI and stats (like those Customs! Such new!) that you can take to your friends' houses for whatever reason.

Oh! But as the Direct proudly announced, you can put two Amiibo COMs in a fight and watch them battle yourself! Whoopee.

And the worst part is I'm probably dumb enough to impulse buy one. Ugh.

I hate myself.

These things have been selling like freaking hot cakes. Took me an unnaturally long time to find Marth. Every single store I went to had either completely sold out or only had 2 or 3 left (usually Mario and Peach). Link and Marth are definitely the most sought after.

A character that really should've been in SSB4 from the start as a 3rd party character that was relevant to Nintendo upon tis release and a big "get" for Nintendo's roster...

Character concept: Bayonetta

Attachment 25565

B: Love is Blue

Similar to Fox's attack, Bayonetta fires bullets from her guns, Love is Blue. They do minor chip damage with no knockback, but rapidly increase percentages.

Forward B: Panther Within



Bayonetta lunges fowards and transfroms into a Panther, that scratches anybody unfortunate to be in her way. At the end of her pounce, she returns to human form.

Up B: Malphas



The wings of the demonic bird, Malphas are summoned onto Bayonetta's back. Similar to Pit's old up B, Malphas by itself is exclusively for recovery, making three upward flaps when you press "B". Once the three flaps are over, Bayonetta begins to drift gracefully down. Hitting "B" further while she descends, she will fire her guns, similar to using "Love is Blue".

Down B: Witch Time

Bayonetta poses. If someone attacks her as she poses, she'll instantly disappears in a purple flash and re-appear behind them and kick them, with a short burst from the "Love is Blue" on her feet at the end of her kick, teasing "Almost!".

Final Smash: Gomorrah



Bayonetta dances and cries "Avavago", before her hair spins around her and the gigantic demonic dragon, Gomorrah, is summoned behind her. Gomorrah takes three massive chomps forwards. Anyone caught in his jaws takes heavy damage and knock back. Before returning to Inferno, Gomorrah makes a mighty roar, pushing anyone nearby backwards, but not dealing any damage. Afterwards Bayonetta's hair returns to her body and she poses.

Front Smash: Wicked Weave Punch



Bayonetta punches forwards as her hair disappears from her body and Madama Butterfly's arm appears next to her and punches. The amount of arm length that is summoned is dependent on the charge.

Down Smash: Wicked Weave Stomp



Bayonetta stomps and poses as her hair disappears from her body and Madama Butterfly's heels appear and slam into the front next to her, sending a small shockwave around her.

Up Smash: Wicked Weave Headbutt

Bayonetta's hair disappears from her body as Madama Butterfly's head appears behind her and thrusts upwards. The higher the charge, the further up Madama Butterfly thrusts.

Throw: Alruna

The whip, Alruna, appears in Bayonetta's hands and she thrusts it forwards, grabbing anybody nearby with about the same length as ZSS's whips. Once grabbed, Bayonetta pulls them in and kicks them in whatever direction is chosen.

Alt: Jeanne



Jeanne comes with new voice clips to represent her new characteristics, similar to Alph and the Koopalings. Additionally, all hair around Wicked Weaves are white instead of black, "Panther Within" becomes "Tiger Within" and Madama Styx's head appears instead of Madama Butterfly's in her Up-Smash

I'm sure with some more thought a much more interesting Bayonetta could be made up, but that's what I'm thinking so far!
