That's why Roy never came back. He turned out to be lame in his own FE title and now only people who never played his game want him back in Smash.

Marth is the face of the franchise, so it's not like he could be unpopular. But that's also really the only reason he is popular - I'd imagine people voting for him in polls only do so because he represents the entire franchise, not because of his (lack of) personality. The only people who care about Roy are the ones who have never played his game though. Terper fucked around with this message at 19:36 on Aug 30, 2014 |

Oh yeah, I don't think anyone honestly bemoaned the inclusion of Ike over Micaiah; she was an awful character, and her segments of the game were easily the worst. Sarcasm on the internet is hard, you guys.

I'm still surprised that Fire Emblem has 4 characters. They're right below Legend of Zelda's 5, and LoZ is one of Nintendo's most famous franchises. Awakening must have been really well-recieved.

Awakening was the best-selling game in the series as well, doubling sales projections and generating a lot of buzz. Many game developers seem to be fans of the series as well, including Sakurai.

I'm extremely pleased with the amount of Fire Emblem representation in this game. However, I still want Anna. She has made more appearances than any other character in a Fire Emblem game and is basically the series mascot. Also she rules!!!

Supersonic Shine posted:Artix's title says it all, really. Yep, also there's not a whole lot they could add from Zelda or at least they didn't want to try. Luciana is also a direct clone, moreso than Toon Link so she barely took any effort at all. FE got as many new characters as Kid Icarus, one new person and a clone.

People poo poo on the Dawn Brigade in that game (for good reason) but their missions were really tense and fun overall. Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn had really good map design, I hope Awakening 2 goes back to that standard. Either way Ike is the best forever though. Really if people want an answer to 'why so many anime swordsman?' it's because they're all popular, and more popular than those with different weapon types. It's like asking why Luigi isn't cut from the game for being too cosmetically similar to Mario and replaced with a Koopa Troopa.

Yeah even if they dipped into the non-lord characters the most popular FE13 characters were Chrom (Sword,) Gaius, (Sword,) Cordelia (Lance, but she rides a pegasus in-game and that'd be hard to make playable) Tharja, (Dark magic but lol), Lucina (Sword,) Severa (Sword), Inigo, (Sword), and Owain (Sword) Sword dudes are cool.

People throw around Hector a lot as a sword alternative for a FE character, but really it's the definition of wishful thinking. Japan didn't like his game (it's only notable here for being the first FE game released in English), he shares major spotlight with other characters, his game is old, and Lyn - another sword user from the same game - is more popular anyway. It's not as much wishful thinking as thinking that Sakurai would add a Xenoblade character and that it wouldn't be Shulk, though, which I saw a decent amount as well.

Supersonic Shine posted:Lucina can use lances upon promoting to Great Lord. It's a shame her signature weapon is a sword, because I'd like to see her pull out a Brave Lance or a similar weapon for some of her attacks. She's a direct clone of Marth, Robin uses magic which is a new type of FE character we've never seen before. He's the real addition.

Geostomp posted:I could see her being pretty fun in her Awakening Trickster gear. Before Robin was revealed, I always pictured her as using the Levin sword for her normal attacks and using staves for her specials. Up Special - Warp (technically not in Awakening but gently caress it, Robin can't use Dark Magic so who cares) Neutral Special - Heal (slowly heals damage as you hold it down) Side Special - idk, probably another staff from a different FE game like Sleep or something Down Special - Ward (reflect projectiles)
