[up]Not by—

Oh I'm not falling for this again.

This song would be nice in Smash For, I'd say. Good momentum and force, yet somewhat relaxing.

Yeah...and I suppose his job would keep him busy anyway.

Probably not gonna happen, but if they added another Sonic character, I'd love for it to be Knuckles. Considering how he is essentially the physical fighting type of the series, he seems like the most logical choice there.

I'd rather poor Tails got more spotlight. Plus, his Gadgets have a lot of unique choices. He overused that a bit in Sonic Battle, but he was one of the coolest characters in there.

I could see Tails being more likely, considering that he is essentially the Luigi of the Sonic franchise in terms of notability, and I certainly wouldn't mind his inclusion. I just feel like Knux is a character more suited to smashin' it up.

I personally feel it's a moot point- There's almost certainly never going to be a Sonic character included besides, y'know, Sonic.

I sure said that!

Well, being that they both damn well know how to fight... I could see either. Tails isn't that much of a pacifist, really. Now, if we're talking about characters who probably wouldn't fight... Cream. That's kind of it? Maybe Chaos Zero/Number whatever?

Okay, realistically, I don't believe either have a ghost of a chance being playable unless Nintendo buys out Sega and the Sonic series, but seriously. [lol]

I still want Kamek. But does drawing from spinoff games like Dream Team or Partners in Time or even -gasp- Sticker Star count as cheating? As far as I can tell Sakurai doesn't like to reference spinoffs in regard to moves or such, just trophies/stickers and the occasional song (Gritzy Desert in Brawl, for example).

If not, we could try to assemble a movepool from Yoshi's Island and NSMB Wii/U, though he only really fights directly in the latter two, and even then it's mostly standard-fare Magikoopa geometry blasts.

An Egg Mech would be a pretty neat boss. Death Egg Robo, Egg Viper, and Egg Dragoon seem like the most obvious choices.

#28139: Dec 1st 2013 at 11:06:28 PM

Dr. Eggman doesn't fight directly outside of various contraptions. He'd make a great boss, though.

[up][up][up][up] She does attack without Cheese in Sonic X(at least the Anime, I don't know if she could kick in the comic). Mostly dropkicks, notably. But she knows how to get serious in that show and only once is she really a damsel. She also is pretty much in a lot of fights in Season 3 and can fully pilot a weaponry system. Interestingly enough, she has to be forced to fight to save the world. A petty tourney like sometimes SSB is shown as? Eh, nah.

Tails might. But I agree that Knuckles totally would do so for the sake of it. This is why I miss there being a possible story mode. Honestly, I'd love dialogue alone for it. Most of the characters have talked anyway throughout the various media, so written dialogue is acceptable enough to me. My biggest hope though, is that the Opening Cutscene will be amazing like it has been throughout all 3 games.(I don't mean the opening of story mode but of the game itself)

[up][up] As long as it's a Mario piece of media, he can draw off it all he wants. Games alone are already confirmed not to be the only thing Sakurai looks at, so...

I always suggested consolidating the two third-party series (Metal Gear Solid and Sonic) by having a boss fight against "Metal Gear EGG". tongue

Though with Mega Man in the mix, we gotta make it a Wily machine as well.

Screw it- Just have RAY Mk 1, an Egg Mech of some sort and a Wily Machine.

Oh, almost forgot-

New pic of the day.

Apparently Villager's up-air and down-air are turnip attacks.

Can't say I was expecting that, thought we already knew his aerials. Interesting that Sakurai (or at least the translator) used the term "up-air" and "down-air". Always thought those were fandom terms.

As far as I can tell Sakurai doesn't like to reference spinoffs in regard to moves or such.

One of Peach's attacks is the frying pan from SMRPG.

#28145: Dec 1st 2013 at 11:14:17 PM

Or it's a Fandom Nod. Or they're using a term we created because it makes sense?

But it's nice having completely confirmed moves again.

[up] Let's not forget her regular slaps originate in that, plus the Tennis Racket and Golf Club. I mean, the last two are blatantly obvious.

Ah, that is true. Though it strikes me as sorta odd since it's the game that Nintendo can't reference without crediting Square pretty much. I guess I can't expect Square to say "No! Peach cannot use frying pans because we invented her doing that!", though.

Anyway, if we're allowed spinoff games, I'd make Kamek's neutral B be the classic geometric magic of course, side B be his fire attack from PiT that moves across the ground, up B be some kind of fairly generic broom riding thing, and down B be... I wanna use a move from Dream Team, but they're all sorta too bizarre or grandiose to be a standard attack, like chasing you across a field of Thwomps, or making you jump to try and get out of enclosing rings.

As for Final Smash, still not sure. Kamek's most famous ability is making things grow in size with magic, but I don't know how to implement that as a Final Smash. He doesn't use it on himself and even if he did a generic size change would make it no more impressive than getting a Super Mushroom (*coughgigabowsercough*).

I don't know if I mentioned it previously, but if they could do a Tag Team(similar to Zelda/Sheik) with Bowser Jr.(standing in for Baby Bowser) and Kamek, he could do something to Bowser Jr. instead via a size change.

It could be the Final Smash for both of them. I mean, PT had no different ones, after all.

I'm not exactly sure we can consider slapping people a reference to anything, considering literally anyone who isn't a double amputee can slap someone.

I said it originated in that. Not that it was referencing that. But her suddenly being slappy in Smash without a prior game(besides SMRPG) doing that makes us wonder why he would reference one attack in the game but not the other she can do. It's probably also from that game, in other words. I don't remember her slapping others in other depicted media either. So maybe he took all he could from there, or thought "Princess = Slap". It's really hard to say.

But I should've worded my second part better. I think it was gotten, though. The other two attacks were clearly not from Super Mario RPG, but the respective games they allude to, by name alone.

@Odd: IDK, a slap seems a pretty specific attack to have for a fighting game. Now punches, pretty much every character gets those even if they didn't originally.

Like Mega Man, he couldn't punch in the original games, the Mega Uppercut was from Marvel Vs. Capcom. Same thing with Donkey Kong, he couldn't punch in his games.
