I am sort of legit disappointed that Elec Man is an assist trophy over Proto Man. Considering Grey Fox/Shadow the Hedgehog were also Assists, it felt like the Mega Man version of those assholes would make more sense than a random Robot Master.

Elec Man's actually pretty perfect because he was the first character Inafune designed once he was assigned Mega Man, and is also his favorite Robot Master. It really fits with Mega Man's appearance being kind of a franchise love letter.

Ignore all the posts from the Waluigi fans that don't read/like that web comic. Waluigi is the most hilarious Mario character from the games alone.

They didn't add him to Mario 64 DS, and you could even play as Wario and Yoshi in that.

You could say this about any character that is, at least in the 'modern era', a Smash Only Character. Ness, Lucas, Captain Falcon, the Ice Climbers, etc. There's a lot of 'Smash Symbols'. Some of them might end up getting cut.

I don't think you understand how this thread works.

It's bad posts all the way down. And blind declarations about what characters might be removed from the game, too.


Both consoles for this have a touch screen, even having it as a main feature. The dungeon thing implied that you'd use the touch screen to activate items, but I wonder if there will be any other uses for it.

I hope there's an rear end in a top hat Mastermind mode for the Wii U where someone with the pad gets to gently caress with the people playing. Drop items, drag people around, flip the stage, spawn enemies, change gravity, fire lasers, etc. That would be awesome.

Ness, Lucas (at least one of them is gone for sure), and ice climbers might be on the block, but I'd be shocked if the Capn' is out. Falcon PAAAUUUNNNCCCHH is Smash.

Why would Nintendo utilize their tablet? I don't understand.

I wonder if Capt. Falcon and Ganon haven't been shown off because they're differentiating their move sets. It would be like when Sakurai said they held off on announcing Yoshi because they were changing his model to stand upright and why Sheik and Zero Suit Samus were announced after their former primary forms.

Could also explain Ness/Lucas for the same reason. As much as I like Ness's move set, it was Paula that had all that (except Starstorm, which was Poo).

They could make it really cool if it was like a Master Hand mode. You could still do all that stuff, but if you were enough of a fucker the fighters could stop what they were doing and gang up and kill you. Maybe give the hand secret alternate win conditions like make sure the winner has 2 stock left, or end the match in under 4 minutes, or get one of the fighters over 200% damage.

Probably because Ness' actual spellbook of healing and stat effects wouldn't really be the best moveset for a fighting game. Though PK Rockin' would make a killer Final Smash.

Master Hand mode

...Oh my god, a 5-player mode where the tablet player is Master Hand? This is the best idea, and now I'm sad that Nintendo won't do it. :( It'd provide a neat explanation for who Master Hand is (it was you all along!) to boot, though I don't think that was ever in question.

I'm about to rewatch the Direct to find a bunch of stupid little details no one cares about. I am way too excited for this.

I'm actually optimistic we will have something of this nature since we got city trial of all things on the 3ds

I'll stick to my point that Ness, Capt Falcon, Ice Climbers, and Game and Watch will almost certainly not be cut because of that exact reason-- they are smash symbols. I would be very very surprised if any of those got cut. Lucas on the other hand was in 1 game, and doesn't mean anything, and will likely be cut.

EARTHBOUND

29 Confirmed
10 Likely to Return (Wario, Jigglypuff, Ganondorf, Metaknight, Falco, Captain Falcon, R.O.B., Game & Watch, Ice Climbers, Ness OR Lucas)
4 Likely to Not Return (Wolf, Ike, Ness OR Lucas, Snake)
4 Likely Newcomers

So as of right now I see 43, but that's not a nice, pleasing number, so 45 maybe, although I can't see what more would be added. A third Fire Emblem and/or 6th Pokemon character? Snake somehow returns? A newcomer from something else?

Actually I don't know if I want them to switch up Ganondorf, hes a lot of fun to play in melee especially with his aerials. I guess if they keep the satisfaction of thunder-powered thighs and back-airs that smack you across the map i'll be content. I haven't tried him in P:M yet but I hope he got the buff he deserved

I'm very concerned that the Ice Climbers will be cut due to the 3DS's limitations. Handling as many as eight equally-complex 60fps fighters at once could not be possible.

Popo and Nana are synchronous (or very exactly asynchronous), that's the point. They'd be unplayable at different framerates.

I feel like there's basically no way they're gonna cut any characters that have been in every game. That would be a pretty weird decision and would make people mad for no reason.

Well the original 12 are safe, I'm sure. But Melee folks are fair game.

Rosalina's Luma isn't literally Rosalina recolored. It's probably less than 1/10th as complex, visually or computationally.

Rosalina basically functions just like the Ice Climbers already so whether that's a case for or against them is up in the air.

Right, Mewtwo proved that. It's just odd people are worried that Ness, Captain Falcon and Jigglypuff are going to get cut. Ice Climbers I could MAYBE see due to the 60fps issue, but I still seriously doubt it.

I'm thinking Rosalina's gonna "fill" the two-character twin control "gimmick" of the Climbers. I'd be happy to be wrong but I'm not counting on them making it in.

The pikmin are probably each 1/4 as complex so if you have 4 Olimars each with their max 3 pikmin out and then they all simultaneously do their up B does that count as 8 characters?
