Friend just sent me a video of something he just did on For Glory:
Truly Glorious.

Got my copy in the mail yesterday.
Still trying to get myself acclimated to the new fighters (and re-acclimated to the old ones). Pluse, this is my first time using the Pro Contoller, so I have to get used to that as well. But I'm still loving it.
Honestly, I forgot how enjoyable this is. As much as this game is about beating the crap out of your friends as your favorite Nintendo character, it's also about celebrating our beloved Nintendo franchises and all the joy they've given us over the years.

@Purple:
was just about to post about this lol
Mewtwo is almost here

So no news at all?

In addition to that, in the full video, Sakurai stated that Takamaru (from The Mysterious Murasame Castle) was considered to be playable.

Oh jesus christ I'm flashbacking.

i can never fully enjoy this game cause of Ice Climbers.
I'm sure deep down every smash fan feels this.
-
Not really, Duck Hunt Dog and Duck Hunt Duck are pretty much completely superior.
-
There's also Rosaluma, but it'd be nice if the ICs came back
I probably still wouldn't touch them anyway, though
-
I wonder what Sakurai's thought process was for the Ice Climbers' original inclusion.
"Gee this random NES game sure stands head a shoulders among the other ten-thousand random NES games!"
Or did he wake up one day and they were mysteriously coded in.
-
Yeah that is kinda weird that ICs got in but Takamaru didn't due to popularity reasons
-
@Cyan:
Duck Hunt Duck.
Damn when did Warner Bros. & Chuck Jones make a new entry in the Bugs Bunny & Daffy Duck Hunting trilogy?
I'm sure deep down every smash fan feels this.
-
I'd pay good money to see Goku and Spongebob beat the shit out of each other.
-
I would have personally really enjoyed Takamaru, and it would have been nice if he were included and then his franchise got revived, like it happened to Pit. BUT OH WELL

Nope, not really. Duck Hunt and ROB as classic NES characters make a lot more sense, and while I enjoyed what they brought to the previous titles, they at least had their chance to be playable while actually being very minor characters overall.
I'm more distraught about Lucas and Wolf.

They wanted to have a classic NES character in the game. Pit, Excitebike, Balloon Fighter and the like were also considered, but for some reason they went with ice climbers. My guess is they liked the idea of the two-characters-at-the-same-time gimmick

Mii fighters can make that happen. :ninja:

I'm frankly more sad about the loss of
SnakeBig Boss in his son's sneaking suit than I am about Wolf or Lucas.Largely because I had way more fun with Big Boss than I did with the other two.

"Okay we've got this list of NES characters we'd like to use, but only have room for one. Now, I have all the names written on these pieces of paper and I found this hat…"

"Okay we've got this list of NES characters we'd like to use, but only have room for one. Now, I have all the names written on these pieces of paper and I found this hat…"The thing with Snake is that at least it can be rationalized as the complication being the whole third party deal thing. Lucas and Wolf being cut is pretty much all about sakurai just not giving enough shits.
What also adds salt to it is that along with no Lucas we also have Nintendo still constantly ignoring the mother fanbase, and what sucks for me about no wolf is that he was much more different from fox than falco but we're stuck with falco.
Also, I made the mistake of playing mother 3 right before the game came out and now the absence of Lucas is the greatest bummer. -
After a while you realize that Star Fox is lucky to even have Falco still.

Tbh I was vaguely familiar of his series when Brawl came out (thanks to the 8-bit theme), and it wasn't until Nintendo Land and Smash 4 that I was able to put a face to the name.
That being said, I'm confident he'll be playable in 5mash:
-Being an assist trophy (plus Sakurai's post went out of his way to say his origins began with Link, Pit, and Samus) means the Smash team is familiar with not only who he is, but how he might move.
-Being in Nintendo Land 2 years earlier AND the Western release of his game also means Nintendo hasn't completely forgotten the guy, either.
-Wasn't he playable in a Samurai Warriors game, too?It pains me to see a new design to go to waste. Pit was lucky, but I would LOVE new games for Nana/Popo, Duck Hunt, and Takamaru. Their Smash aesthetics are too good.
-
Takamaru was always one of my hopefuls. I really hoped he would go the way pit did but i'm sure he'll be in 5mash. We got Duck Hunt and little mac this time as our retros and both probably deserved it more than takamaru. Hoping for takamaru and then maybe Lip or Exciterider in the next game.
-
There are coming a few good candidates for smash 5 these years, Steampunk Abe, Splatoon, Captain Toad. I think that they should expand newer (to the game, not of age) franchises instead of expanding the old ones.
Kirby and Zelda already has everyone important, Mario should be keept as it is (even though it's aditions were interesting), pokemon just add one more if there's a new gen.
It's like jump ultimate stars, I'd love all the strawhats to be in, but i'd rather if they went and added more obscure or complicated series, like mazingerZ, city hunter, etc..
-
The Zelda roster won't be complete until Toon Ganondorf and the Groose are in.
I'm totally behind Abraham Lincoln though.
-
well there are a few characters from franchises that have been in SSB that i would like to see:
MegaMan:

other then them, i don't know of any good candidates from recent franchises to be added to SSB5
-
Put Simon Belmont and we can have our dream team of Captain N.
-
Krystal in Starfox would be a great addition to the cast. She would be additional female which we're all for AND she would be a starfox character who just be cloned. I mean we know she'll end up getting a land master anyways.
-
Falco to be cut from 5mash, replaced with the Ray 01.
-
Shantae and Shovel Knight for 5mash: Electric Boogaloo
-
I feel like more villains would be nice (at the very least, I'd like to see Ridley and King K. Rool). It seems ridiculous that, out of a roster of about fifty characters, only about three of them (Bowser, Bowser Junior, Ganondorf) are usually portrayed as villains (seeing as Meta Knight, Dedede, and Wario are good guys most of the time).
-
Nintendo games rotate villians, except those.
-
I'd like to see Ridley and King K. Rool).
Ridley is too big for this game.
But Sakurai would ignore that statement by putting a large K. Rool into the game.
-
Hades from Kid Icarus Uprising should have been in it, since you know, Sakurai himself created him. (And he's also one of the best villains ever)
-

He's bigger than Ridley.

Villains should be the next focus. The problem is which villains. Ridley seems obvious as metroid should really have another rep (especially of the series gets a new game between now and 5mash) but sakurai is right to some degree that Ridley doesn't fit as well as a playable fighter unlike other villains like bowser. It's not impossible but it needs to be handled well.
As much as I'd love k.rool, unless he reappears in dkcr3 he is very unlikely because he's not relevant anymore.
The big problem with villains is that they are never the only rep. Any new series will likely get one rep and it will always be the hero. Gender isn't a problem here because a protagonist can be both. With villains it's not the same. Also the way series are represented are a problem. Every fire emblem uses a new cast and a new protagonist so a villain from fire emblem is unlikely. Pokemon alliances are often neutral so it doesn't count. Other series like pikmin have villains that don't really work well to the smashbros style. Lastly some series like f-zero and punch out have villains that would be to similar to the protags of their respected games so there really is not any point to any new character from their series.
Out of all of the series we have represented so far, excluding 3rd parties and series already with villains, only metroid, donkey kong, kid icarus, starfox and xenoblade have a chance of a villain. Even then I really only feel starfox has a proper chance at this point being the only one with a recurring cast and villain who may for into the smash style and is currently relevant.

We have Mr.Game & Watch, Duck Hunt, Captain Falcon, Ness various characters who haven't been relevant in years if ever as characters in the games. If they can be thrown in so can K.Rool.
@Galaxy:

Hey we already have Donkey Kong whose size has varied for years why the hell not:ninja:
-
Dracula. He'd add a villain to the roster and he's in every Castlevania game.
-
Hey we already have Donkey Kong whose size has varied for years why the hell not:ninja:
Olimar, Alph and Pikmins too are actually megasuper tiny in their games but are waaaay bigger in smash
-
The recent Smash literally just came out … and already we're talking of characters for the next smash? Lol. Sure, I'll bite. Even though I personally would be ok with this being it for Smash for a long long time.
The main notable that I think is missing injustly is Dixie Kong. Given how DK is such a large franchise it makes no sense for the DK series to only have DK and Diddy.
Aside from Dixie, I also think Rhythm Heaven merits content. In my dreams a playable character, but if not then at least a stage and music all over the place. This franchise deserved to have a lot more content in the current smash bros.Regarding villains:
- Ridley won't happen until someone else who is not Sakurai is making these games.
- K. Rool is very unlikely. I've talked to people in the industry who've worked with nintendo and they've shared just how little a lot of the current people there care about the kremlins, which is why they're not even in tropical freeze. I don't see it happening as awesome as it would be, unless their mentality changed for some reason.
- Hades would be pretty cool, but if Kid Icarus doesn't receive any more installments I don't see why it would need more characters. If anything, Dark Pit is a prime candidate to be dropped.
- Wolf, please. I'd punch someone if we get Krystal before we get Wolf back.
- Third party villains? No thanks. Nintendo villains first. As much as Robotnik or Wily would be the most awesome thing, Nintendo villains first.
-
It will be revealed that Olimar, alph, and pikmin are full sized, and every other fighter is actually shrunken to accomodate them.
