With Charizard representing possibly the most popular of the first generation starters, and it being a fire type, having the water stater from the most recent generation to serve opposite of it works out. I guess Greninja is also the most popular of the three new starters?

Nobody picks grass.

I always picked grass until Chespin ended up evolving into the worst pokemon ever. Sceptile, however, would be a badass smash bro and they're clearly saving him until they announce the RSE remakes.

I'm surprised they didn't do a section on controls, being that Brawl was really good about customizing controls I don't see it being an issue but it'd be nice to know that I'll be able to switch the buttons to whatever the hell on the 3DS.

Half the reason I changed my controls is because I think it's really funny when we have to rotate players and the first person who's using my name has this moment of complete bafflement when they try to jump and taunt instead, grab when they're trying to shield or jump when they want to grab. Then they tell me my controller's broken.

Also I really hope they bring Captian Falcon out of the poo poo tier this time. He is so fun to play as, but they ruined all of his combos in Brawl. :(

Combos in general didn't really work at all in Brawl and Falcon definitely suffered worse than anyone for it. His knee also got nerfed to poo poo which is pretty unforgiveable. Falcon didn't get poo poo on as hard as Jigglypuff, though. Rest was barely stronger than a good smash attack and didn't even get to keep its cool flame effect.

I think a lot of people who want Waluigi are just trying to satisfy their OCD, since we have literally the entire main Mario cast except him or Toad.

Well, technically we have Toad. We don't have Bowser Jr. yet, and he would actually be a cool character to recycle some of Squirtle's moveset into.

I think a majority of people who play Smash games probably don't really care about Nintendo franchises outside of Mario, Zelda and Pokemon. I know most of my friends don't even know where half the characters in the roster come from.

Why are people trying to put an objective value to peoples' subjective motivations to purchase a console in this thread

"throw away money you don't have for a single game"

"don't spend your own hard earned money on what can be countless hours of quality entertainment for you"

I actually hate video games so I'm glad this thread was here to convince me not to buy a Wii U.

I'm pretty sure Nintendo could care less if Sakurai is a perfectionist if it means that they can make a shitload of extra money selling us DLC characters. People would happily pay for Mewtwo, Ridley, Ray 01, Saki, etc.

I think it's more likely that they would release DLC alternate costumes. I know I would absolutely pay for a Punch-Out DK or pink hoodie Little Mac skin.

In P:M it fucks with your air momentum and fall speed so it was good for recovering in weird and unpredictable ways. It might have done that in Brawl too, I really don't remember. Giving them a hitbox also helped a lot. Otherwise no they were pretty awful moves!

Lucas' magnet in Project M is so amazing. It's like Mario's cape combined with Wolf's shine and you can do that weird physics exploit where you use it after shooting a PK Freeze and you fly through the air lookin' like a wizard or some poo poo. Now I'm disappointed that in Smash 4 he's either going to be boring and awful or non-existent.

As for Pac-Man the majority of Pac-related games released in the last 6-7 years are targetted at long-time pac-loving adults, like Namco Museum Remix, Pac-Man Museum, Pac-Man Championship Edition, Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions, etc. I think that Namco would want you to believe that Pac-Man is still popular with all audiences, but ultimately they know where their bread is buttered.

Yeah, if you're like 40 then I guess you probably like Pac-Man the game but the target audience for this game probably doesn't even know what an arcade was, and Pac-Man is like the least hype character ever. Like, I would be less excited for this game if they announced Pac-Man.

He's a lot harder to play drunk than Jigglypuff though and he doesn't make a funny noise when you slip'n'slide so that takes him down a couple of tiers

Actual style combo is replacing the fair with a charged B. Get good.

I feel strongbad needs to use cargo down throw more often, it's a good mix-up. But maybe it's really easy to DI or something.

I use it a lot on my friends followed by a dash attack and then usually an up-tilt and it usually works, but I don't know if they're DI'ing it right.

The main reason you should play Project M is that it un-nerfs Jigglypuff. :colbert:

This is true but they also gave every character that wasn't a melee top tier a ridiculous recovery so she's still bad against like 75% of the cast. But Rest actually does something again and that's all that matters.

I traditionally mained Jigglypuff because she's hilarious and no one respected her until Brawl made her unplayable and I favored Pikachu for the short time I actually played it. I'm assuming Smash 4 'Puff is still not going to be close to as badass as she was in Melee so I'm probably going with Wii Fit Trainer because she's kind of a similar "joke" character and I kinda want to main someone other than a Digimon for once.
