Shradow Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 fire emblem only just came out in the west Yeah, it's only been a mere 12 years. Hardly any time at all. And not being as popular as Mario or Pokemon (which is an unfair comparison to pretty much any video game series, not just Fire Emblem) has nothing to do with its popularity compared to the DK or Metroid series.

Flame Dragon Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Yeah, it's only been a mere 12 years. Hardly any time at all. And not being as popular as Mario or Pokemon (which is an unfair comparison to pretty much any video game series, not just Fire Emblem) has nothing to do with its popularity compared to the DK or Metroid series.IMO after Awakening Fire Emblem has become a tier two franchise for Nintendo with Metroid, Kirby, and DK. Thats part of the reason I want K.Rool so badly since DK really deserves a 3rd rep and between it and Metroid has a much easier to get in candidate.

Apparently Fire Emblem 7-11 (all of which were out in the west) don't exist. Also, having different characters in different versions would be an unnecessary hassle. By the way. Of course Metroid and DK have less characters in Smash...since...they have less characters in general. Edit: You realize Flame isn't agreeing with you totally right?

Agro Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 But really, outside of Ridley, try naming a Metroid character that isn't from Other M. What they should do is just have a sword character based on Kamui and have all the alts be other slim swordfighting characters with long capes (Roy, etc.) Then have Robin and make all his alts different mages. Then have Marth/Lucina. Ike's the weird one, but you could just make a ton of heavy swordsman alts or give him an axe or lance instead. Also, for a final addition, they should add Tiki. Dragon transformations would be cool. Sorry Kamui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Ike having axe moves would be cool since he can use them RD. Plus, Urvan is an awesome weapon. But really, outside of Ridley, try naming a Metroid character that isn't from Other M. I dunno, Rundas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 I dunno, Rundas? He's a returning character that we'll have the chance to see in a future metroid game, right? Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 I was just giving a name while agreeing with your point in the way I gave it. Metroid isn't really a rep heavy series for Smash Bros, I had to name off some dead guy who was only in one game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 By the way. Of course Metroid and DK have less characters in Smash...since...they have less characters in general. Edit: You realize Flame isn't agreeing with you totally right?DK has both K.Rool and Dixie as REALLY good choices for a slot. Metroid is the one that doesn't have a good 3rd choice even though it really deserves a 3rd rep.I know I posted this once before, but that was a LONG time ago. My personal break down for rep count in smash.Mario & Pokemon: 6 repsZelda: 5 repsFire Emblem, Kirby, Metroid, and Donkey Kong: 3 repsStar Fox: 2Everything else: 1I am fine with Mother and Kid Icarus having a 2nd rep and Star Fox could get a 3rd, but I'd default to this.And yea, I disagree that we should ignore the many FE games that came out over the past 10 years in the west, but agree that its only now that Fire Emblem has really become worthy of that 3rd slot.

Yeah DK needs another. Though really I can only see King K Rool making it. My main point was that FE has a huge cast of characters and many of them could fit. Whereas other Nintendo games don't necessarily have as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas other Nintendo games don't necessarily have as much.Fair point. FE is always changing its cast so each game will more or less give you a whole games worth of characters as additional choices. Its what makes Metroid the hardest franchise to get reps for since past Samus and Ridley it doesn't really have character identifiable enough, especially to work as a fighter.

Toffee. Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Look, guys, we totally need to add Goku.It's a countermeasure to all the Not-Anime characters like Marth n' friends, by adding a character that's actally from an anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 The animefication of Smash is real. Though it is fun to see how character designs have changed to be more realistic. Like, I'm sure most of you know the reason for a lot of Jumpman's character design traits is because of graphical limitations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also did the Palutena intro vid, which helps explain that botty and booby shot.Speaking of those teaser videos, those were amazing. I'd watch the hell out of a short smash series.

I don't have a laughing gif and am too lazy to go find one, but I just wanted you to know that if I did have one or felt like finding one, I would have posted it here to make fun of you. Played smash with a ton of people that usually go to the biweeklies I play at and ended up spending quite some time playing against arguably the best player in the state as he tried out new characters. I won a vast majority of those games. I'm not even sure how close it was. A lot of 2-stocks. Also managed to win a lot against his team in doubles (whenever we didn't play on Battlefield...)
