I'm still waiting for something new and suprising other than the names of the musicians. I can't beleive they even bothered announcing Mario and Link, every time Japan Time comes around I'm less and less suprised. Well if they announce 3 characters a week, we'll be seeing someone new in four weeks at the latest. I thought that was just a "Hey wouldn't it be cool if..." sort of deal from a fan.

Maybe so, but I was thinking it was informally announced like the Nintendogs item. Also, your sig is quite possibly the creepiest thing I've ever seen on GFF.

I simply can't wait to play as Pit. I think I'm switching from Link. Yeah, it's that cool.

Yeah, but if you lose one of them you are crippled for the most part. I have nothing against the Ice Climbers in general, but they could have been a little better in SSBM.

That's a neat idea, but it could quickly get obnoxious. I'm certain I'm not the only person who immediately tried to make a Hitler Mii.

I rather doubt they'll toss the Ice Climbers. They were quite popular with a lot of people, as far as I know. If anyone's getting the boot, it'll be the more obscure extra characters like Pichu. And I thought it was confirmed that Mr. Game and Watch was not coming back, or was that just a rumor?

Regardless, I'd prefer if they didn't dump any of the characters.

The characters that they had in SSBM were all cool, it was just disappointing that they had duplicated movesets for a few of them.

Ganon and Falco are totally worthwhile of maintaining a spot on the roster, they just need movesets that are different from Captain Falcon and Fox.

Pichu was probably the only character that wasn't necessary at all... we don't need two squishy yellow electric Pokemon. I think having Pikachu, Mewtwo and Jigglypuff is more than enough in terms of Pokes, but I wouldn't really mind having more so long as they have unique movesets. Maybe some other fan favorites like Lucario or Sneasel from the Diamond/Pearl games, or Golduck/Allakhazam/Machamp that have been around since the beginning.

I thought it was confirmed that they were tossing, Ylink, Game & Watch, Ice Climbers and Pichu. A game with less characters than the game before it seems kinda sad. I know it'll probably have more, but still cut characters are no guud.

Rumor mongling.

Only character likely to be dropped is Roy D:

I never actually got to play as Mr. Game & Watch, but I like the creativity of his design. It is incredible the way that the Nintendo developers incorporated elements from just about every Game & Watch game into Mr. G&W's fighting style. I would like to see him stay just because he is imaginative.

I think I'd rather have pichu in the game than that annoying ass PURIN (JigglyPuff) >.>. bLEH.. I hope to god that Roy's dismissal is just a rumor. I'll gladly accept though if they replace him and add Eliwood >=].


Screw characters. I've been wondering if they ever plan to have a battle stage underwater or something. DK style. Only greatest track I can think of is Aquatic Ambiance. Nintendo should be more creative..

Jigglypuff was actually a decent character, since at least she had a unique set of moves.

Also, which one is Roy and which is Marth? I never really liked any of the sword characters (I play as Pikachu >_>) so I don't know if I've ever played as him.

Marth was the dark blue haired one, and Roy was the red haired one.
Marth>Roy

I hope they don't toss Pichu, it's fun playing a character that no one likes. :(

I would keep Marth, but toss Roy and replace him with another popular FE character, like Ayra.

Ayumi Tachibana would be a nice addition, I think. She could use the deadly combination of abductive and inductive reasoning to disintergrate the souls of her enemies. Or something like that.

They both had the same kind of fighting style,but the sword combos can be a little tricky at least(I think thats only move they differ from ). Roy uses fire and Marth is all for water. It's the moves that counts though which is why one of the two might get the boot.It's pretty much the same if they were to shout out a nasty rumor about Ganondorf not making the cut because he's a C.Falcon Clone.

Hey, they need to keep Jigglypuff in the game. There's nothing as cathartic as setting up a match against three CPU Jigglypuffs, minimum level, minimum health, to a 100 KO limit. Paste the little suckers all over the place, and listen to their plaintive cries of "Jigglypuuuuuuuff!" as they go flying into the distance.

Besides, Jigglypuff in a good player's hands is fucking nasty. She has god damn insane combos and can off somebody with Rest at around 40-50%. She was near top-tier in Melee IIRC.

Not to mention the look of shame on your opponent's face after they've just had their ass handed to them by Jigglypuff. A lot of people just assume she sucks and never took the time to learn how far several of her attacks can make you fly.

Post of the year. :tpg:

Sure it's sad that the cast will be modified a little but they just cannot satisfy all the gamers out there. Not even by keeping all characters.
But I'd rather have them to toss some of them than to have 26*10^9 characters in Super Smash Bros. 6.

What is this Melee IIRC, is it some sort of competition or something and if so are there any good vids out there in cyberland?

I believe The_Griffin meant "She was near top-tier in Melee, if I recall correctly" get it? IIRC. Acronyms ftw! But if I'm wrong, then so be it. Let the shame come.

OFF TOPIC
 

Doesn't Zero Suit Samus's weapon resemble someone else's a bit?

Zero Suit Samus

Ulysses

The suit as well. :D

EDIT: Fixed. Sorry about that, Acer. I was in a hurry...

Heh, yeah it does resemble Ulysses' weapon. However, it's not like the skin suit was invented with Ulysses.

I must say though DON'T FUCKING HOTLINK. IT PISSES ME OFF WHEN I SEE BLOCKED IMAGES DUE TO SAID IDIOTIC ACTIVITY.

http://photos.cx/, bi-otch. Use it.

Wait, are they adding ANOTHER fucking sword charater? :(

I'm not sure but I think Zero Suit Samus' gunswordthingy acts more like a whip as it bends like a whip and stuff.

By the way, Pit's bow is not identical to Link's... you can CONTROL the projectile AFTER it's shot. Meaning, you shoot and then press up or down to control where the light beam goes.
