This is apparently what characters the Japanese want be in Smash 4.
 


 
...The lead spots are composed entirely of veterans. Including the awful clones from Melee.
 
This is a golden opportunity to get some fresh meat in a Smash game without having to wait another six years, if even that, and they might actually want to throw it away for bad ideas that have been done and dusted. I'm okay with Lucas and all, but come on!
 
Although I'm far more amused than I should be that Tharja actually made the list. Surprisingly she's as popular as Bayonetta.

Clearly fake. I don't see Goku anywhere. :colbert:

It really reeks of a lack of imagination, yeah. I would rather we just get a new character whole-cloth than something that's already been done. For example, Wolf's specials from Brawl are already customs, we don't really need him back in the game. Likewise, we don't really need a sixth Zelda character or an eighth Mario character.

Wolf needs to return. He is much more interesting than both Falco and Fox. Delete them and bring back Wolf.

It's really weird how much people seem to just not care about main characters. Fox and Falco are plenty cool, Fox is a Heroic Leader with a Tragic Past and Falco is a Bad Boy with a Heart of Gold, and both of those things own.

Zelda has around two dozen chars that would be great to play in Smash. gently caress you. Maneuver yourself into a grave. I bet you voted for Sukapon or some poo poo

No it's imperative that we have poo poo no one cares about because then maybe we'll get a sequel to *checks nintendo wikipedia page* Urban Champion

There hasn't been a totally new Zelda fighter in the SSB series since Melee came out in 2001 so this is a real bad opinion. You need to wise up. I don't have time for posts like these.

The veterans were all someone's favorite, it's not hard to imagine wanting to bring your main back into the new smash over the novelty of having a brand new fighter who might not even be good. It's a no-brainer to voice for an established character before another possible Bowser Jr.

Every character who has been playable in Smash became somebody's main, even if they were an obscure character that was bad at fighting. It makes sense that people are asking for them back. However, I like to look forward to fresh newcomers and I don't miss most of the cuts very badly.

:agreed:

I don't have any huge preference for a newcomer, really. Anything from Bomberman to Layton to K. Rool - hell, I wouldn't mind Groose, either - would be pretty cool, and I trust Nintendo to do something creative with the results.

I'm one of the few weirdos who mained Roy in Melee and even I don't want him back.

Lucas probably didn't take a lot of effort to make because all his animations were done and in a format that 's easy to port over and tweak. Just rig up his new trophy model and he's done. I predict Wolf returning for the same reason, regardless of demand.

So Mewtwo is now mute according to the trailer. He was the second ever talking Pokemon and I'm sad to see him dishonored.

What? He still has his deep, ghostly voice similar to Melee. You can hear him several times in the video if you listen closely. Bowser and Dedede didn't lose their grunts. Sakurai loves that stuff

It's mostly positioning yourself with neutral b and asserting yourself with your big-rear end lethal normals smashes and aerials

Down b nullifies more characters than it should
