Jonnas Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 For what it's worth, I hear someone (maybe at Neogaf? I don't know) said, before the presentation, that Megaman, Villager and Wii Fit Trainer would be in the game. They also had Pac-Man, Mii and Little Mac listed among the newcomers. You know, Internet rumours are what they are, but I'd be surprised if Little Mac wasn't in this, by now.
bob Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 It would make a lot of sense since Little Mac is in one of Nintendos only dedicated fighting games, for him to be in their biggest fighting game franchises. Did that sentence make sense, i feel that it did...i'm happy with it.

Wii Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) Super Smash Bros: "We Don't Have Time To Bring All Characters Back" Smash Bros designer Masahiro Sakurai says there just isn't time to recreate every character who has appeared in the series. Not every character who has appeared in previous Smash Bros titles will be appearing in Super Smash Bros - because there isn't enough time to recreate them all. Designer Masahiro Sakurai explained the reason when NowGamer asked if all the previous characters will return. "I can answer that: no. We don’t have the time to fully recreate every single character who’s been in Smash Bros at this point," Sakurai explained. "Adding new characters is not a simple addition – it’s really multiplication. The amount of work, adding a character is multiplied and becomes bigger and bigger as you go. We can’t because of the amount of work it takes. However, I do believe I understand that each character has its own set of fans out there who really like that character. "So we’re not going to cut characters out of the way, we’re going to put in as many characters as we can, we really want to do that, because it's good for the fans and good for all of us. But in the event that we do have to cut some characters, I’d like to apologise in advance to those fans." Sakurai details how Pokemon are selected for the Smash Bros. series "Well first of all, we talk with the Pokemon company. What’s the hot Pokemon? What Pokemon are in the movies right now? And really do a lot of research on that front. For example, X and Y are coming out – of course, we haven’t done any market research because they’re not out yet, but we look at the animated series or movies and anything like that and again, find out which ones are going to be central to any of conversations in Pokemon going forward. But it’s not just that – going back to just what we talked about, what’s unique about them? Where do they fit in with the rest of everything else? What do they have? It’s a combination of those things." http://www.nowgamer.com/news/1970559/super_smash_bros_we_dont_have_time_to_bring_all_characters_back.html http://www.nowgamer.com/news/1970393/pokemon_in_super_smash_bros_how_theyre_selected.html Edited June 19, 2013 by Wii
Retro_Link Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I don't mind them not bringing characters back. But I don't like this whole 'We don't have time' talk that they seem to be saying for a lot of things, like this, and any chance of different characters between versions etc... FFS Nintendo, it's not as if you stick to a release date with your games!
Serebii Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I don't mind them not bringing characters back. But I don't like this whole 'We don't have time' talk that they seem to be saying for a lot of things, like this, and any chance of different characters between versions etc... FFS Nintendo, it's not as if you stick to a release date with your games! There's also budgets. If they take too long, then they'll struggle to make the cash back. Just look at Tomb Raider for that. I have little doubt we'll have at least 30 characters again, and what they don't have at launch can just be added by DLC later
Jonnas Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 But I don't like this whole 'We don't have time' talk that they seem to be saying for a lot of things, like this, and any chance of different characters between versions etc... If they had all the time they ask for, the game's development would be infinite. They need to have a set deadline to work with, after all. Also, I find it funny that most people criticise Nintendo for delaying games, but right now you're saying they should do it
Sméagol Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Yeah, they can add DLC. I won’t mind some characters being cut, but I hope they keep the more unique ones, like Mr. Game & Watch. But this is a quote from the article on the frontpage: “the oh-so-boring Jigglypuff”. Jigglypuff better be in there!!

Sméagol Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Jigglypuff was genuinely my favourite character in the N64 version. That slap is just hilarious. I also love setting the damage to 200%, at which point the up throw becomes an instant kill.
Jonnas Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I do hope Jigglypuff is back to her Melee awesomeness. She sucked so much in Brawl, and her Final Smash did her no favours (but now that she's a Fairy type, she will hopefully have a more fitting move) Speaking of Pokémon, is Mewtwo a shoe-in? Please, Serebii, please tell me that Mewtwo's new forme can trump whoever's "hot" right now with Pokémon X&Y.

It has a new form and is the star of the newest movie
Wii Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 The oh-so-boring Pigglyjuff should be up slapped right out of the universe. He/she/it has as much personality as a rotting fish corpse.
-Dem0- Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Mewtwo is very much the hot-topic Pokémon this year, yes. It has a new form and is the star of the newest movie Which is why I'm expecting Mewtwo's Return
Beverage Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I don't mind them not bringing characters back. But I don't like this whole 'We don't have time' talk that they seem to be saying for a lot of things, like this, and any chance of different characters between versions etc... FFS Nintendo, it's not as if you stick to a release date with your games! Plus bloody one. Although Jigglypuff may appear boring to some, for old times' sake just leave her in. Pokemon Trainer I'd kinda understand, although even that was a cool idea. Perhaps we dont want to many Pokemon's up in the joint. Pikachu is a must have. I grown attached to Lucario. Buy hizz yeah bring Mewtwo back and Mew would be a welcomed addition. I'm not digging these new Mewtwo's though... Original one please. I kinda feel like Captain Falcon will be made redundant. Any how!.. I swear...
Fused King Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 The oh-so-boring Pigglyjuff should be up slapped right out of the universe. He/she/it has as much personality as a rotting fish corpse. Jigglypuff will be back and slap everyone in the face with her cute Jigglies! I´ve been playing Brawl again and I really hope she stays, her moves are sick and very powerful! EVERYBODY LOVES JIGGLY!!! I kinda feel like Captain Falcon will be made redundant. Any how!.. I swear... If Captain Falcon is not in this I WILL BE UP IN ARMS! I need to see his awesome getup in HD!
-Dem0- Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Pokemon Trainer will most likely stay. Maybe based on the new starters perhaps? EVERYBODY LOVES JIGGLY!!! I for one can't stand that floating fart
Wii Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 So Jigglypuff is a she. Explains why she sucks so much balls.
Jonnas Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I'd love to see a Pokémon Trainer with different Pokémon. Like, if they put Gary Muthafuckin' Blue in there we could see Eeveelutions or Alakazam or Heracross.
Sméagol Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 It’s so not going to happen, but it would be absolutely awesome if you could choose from several pokemon. It could also act as an excuse to sneak Pokemon back in who would otherwise have been cut out.
ReZourceman Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I don't care what happens as long as Ganondorf is in it.
