Meh-meh!?
#30501: Dec 25th 2013 at 7:53:16 PM

[up]Here are the facts:

Pic of the day. Here's a new Assist Trophy—the Skull Kid! I repeat, it's an Assist Trophy, not a new fighter. The characters announced on the website are the fighters!
(From Mr. Sakurai's Miiverse post on Skull Kid.) And also, there's the fact that Starfy was an Assist Trophy in Brawl.

These two facts lead me to believe Starfy is once again an Assist Trophy.

Which ones?

Because it appears to me that it's a fact that no newcomer (and yes, Starfy would be a newcomer if he were playable, as he was an item last time) has been shown without an announcement page (and trailer). And that "character" has meanings beyond playable character. What other word would you use to describe such a gathering anyway?

I have a message from another time...

You're just ignoring the facts.

Says the only person who's come to the conclusion that the "evidence" we have support Starfy being a playable character.

Look closely as Starfy's smile. It's orange right? That means he's playable.

I know it's late, but I'm gonna say my thoughts on Marth, because I never got to when he was revealed, plus doing it now is wise because if Zelda is revealed no-one's gonna want to talk abut Marth.

So Marth, yeah cool. I really like his new design. It's the best one so far. He doesn't look freakishly feminine like in Brawl, and he looks even less feminine than in Melee too. I'm a little curious as to why Marth's face never looks like what it does in Marth's official artwork (in this case, Shadow Dragon or New Mystery), but he's still cool looking.

Also is it sad I never realised until a few days after Marth's reveal for Smash 4 that the sword in the Fire Emblem logo for Smash is meant to be Falchion? I mean, I never really payed attention to what his sword looked like before that, but only noticed now since there was more emphasis put on his sword in artwork and screenshots.

And he marks the first character off my bingo card. I made the card a few days after Sonic's reveal. Had I made it before characters got revealed, I would have had Luigi and Toon Link on there. I originally had Phoenix Wright instead of Sylux but changed it when I remembered Sakurai said he wasn't gonna go overboard on third parties, so I knew there was no way he was gonna double-dip from a developer who already had a rep. By the way did anyone have Rosalina on their Bingo Card?

Yeah I've never shown anyone my Bingo Card before. Thought I'd show it off before the potential Zelda reveal.

This...This conversation is just stupid you know? Like, I'm just lurking here, browsing through for pic updates cuz i'm too lazy to actually either go to the smash bros website or miiverse or whatever, but I just kinda have to come out here to say this conversation is stupid.

Stafy(Or Starfy or whatever it's name is) is not a playable character. If it was, and they just revealed him in a a picture, then obviously they would add him on the list of playable characters, or say something distinguishable about it, or, ya know, something.

Sorry, it's just...god this is stupid.

I don't even care if it's a joke....Just...just stupid.

I'm out. Sorry if I seem like an ass.

While we're at it, those green lines between the Koopa Shell's hexes? Yes, those confirm that Koopa Shell is playable.

Capsule? Redesigned? Oh, top tier baby!

[up][up][up]My favorite thing about Marth is his design is now more explicitly from a game than before.waii

[up]Yes it is thank you very much!>:(

Reviewing the conversation, I just now realized I kinda over-reacted. This seems to be a funny sarcasm thing. I think. To be honest I don't know anything on the internet anymore.

I actually hadn't looked at Marth's design before now. He's certainly better, but to be honest I just dislike Marth's design in general. That's the real reason I wanted him replaced with "marth" from awakening, but WHATEVS.

Marth was never gonna go away. He's the first and the face. In-universe, too. There's a reason "Marth" was "Marth", and not, say, "Eliwood".

Also another thing I'm glad about Marth's reveal is all those ridiculously stupid "Lucina should replace Marth" advertising arguments ended.

Seriously, it just shows how far people go with their avocation of advertising. It gets to the point where they'll replace the main protagonist of the series with a one-shot character who people actually think should replace Marth because of a simple plot twist in the most recent game where she pretends to be him when it was obvious it was a woman in the first place.

[up][up]Toon Link fans who know he has wasted potential still crying in a corner.

Or y'know, they could (and this is a pretty novel idea) genuinely like that design more. That's possible.

The Villager isn't a lord who lost his entire family to tuberculosis and still manages to press on and crush things with his own improvised fighting style.

It's not the same.
