Also Greninja is so amazing, I just hope some other IPs get some representation. Nintendo, you finally have some kickass new IPs in Wonderful 101 and Xenoblade, don't let them just fall by the wayside.

How reasonable is the idea that there will be some sort of Multiple Final Smashes, similar to how you can select Ultras in Street Fighter IV?

One thing I forgot to note is that Mega Man Volnutt being in the final smash for Mega Man has reminded me that Servbots should be in most games but are in very few.

They should put in Eddie as an Assist Trophy. 90% of the time he just throws out a piece of food, but every now and then he gives you a smash ball or a maxim tomato.

To be fair, the developers gave Waluigi a surprising amount of personality than most of the other Sports only Mario characters like Daisy and whatnot. Between his crotch chopping in Mario Strikers, his mugging for the camera in Mario Golf, and the Tuxedo-Mask Rose he pulls out in Mairo party, it makes him pretty memorable.

That, and he's the best.

How big is the Earthbound Franchise in Japan?

I know over here it has a pretty big cult following and is beloved enough that people fan-translated Mother 3, but I'm always curious as to the series' popularity on its native soil.

Download a ton of Gmod Mario models and take a look for yourself--big Mario titles (Sunshine, Galaxy etc.) use unique models but the sports/kart games share assets. If you count them as major, New Super Mario Bros. games are an exception, they use the stock models. I'm sure I didn't need to tell you that corners were cut on the NSMB games, though. 3D World's the first time they've done HD models for the Mario characters.

Smash games tend not to cut corners with models short of trophies, which I respect a lot--Brawl and Melee both resulted in the first time some of the original 151 got a new model since Pokemon Stadium.

They did reuse the models a lot for a lot of the pokemon though. It's really jarring to see a high-res model of Ike or King Deedeedee standing right a low-poly count Pokemon.

They seem to have updated that for Smash 4 though.

Pac-Man works because Video Games, unlike most media, you can get away with have a limited or 1-dimensional personality and still be endearing because if their games are fun or engaging it can make up for it ways other forms of media can't.

He's like the anti-Waluigi, people want him in because of what he represents to video games as a whole, rather than they find themselves personally attached to the character.

Also, how many rock songs and Major Disney Releases have you been featured in. I thought so :colbert:

It's kind of impressive that Ice Climbers didn't get another game. Pit got Uprising, Mr. Game and Watch got the Game and Watch gallery games, ROB showed up in Mario Kart, Ice Climbers got jack and poo poo.

They'd have to retool the series the same way they did Kid Icarus, because the original Ice Climbers game is kind of poo poo.

Steering the conversation in a slightly different direction, what are the odds of Meta Knight and possibly someone else from Kirby getting back in. Next to DDD and Kirby himself, he's the biggest part of the Kirby universe. I know Sakurai said he didn't want to over-represent his own series, but Kirby is pretty huge in Japan I hear, and even though MK was broken in brawl, I still enjoyed him and hope he makes it back.

Not having Wonder Red as a playable character seems like a real missed opportunity.

The Wii U is struggling, and Smash Bros may be one of the biggest chances to save it, and since half the point of SSB is getting people excited about other Nintendo games, playing as Wonder Red might've enticed people to try out Wonderful 101 the way Marth and Roy got people interested in Fire Emblem.

SSE would have been fantastic if they had played the entire concept for laughs.

You know that scene where all the Pikmin are fighting the Giant Rob, then Captain Falcon shows up in his car, punches the robot, and then does a dramatic pose slide that kills every single one of the Pikmin he was trying to help?

Every cutscene in the SSE should have been that.

His brawl quotes were the weirdest poo poo because literally none of them were things he actually said at any point in the games or even all that in-character for him.

The Pokemon models look so much nicer than they did in the last two games. The fact that they were very obviously using the low poly-count N64 Pokemon Stadium models was really apparent in Melee and REALLY apparent in Brawl.
