How would ribbon pellet work in a 2-d game?

Touch the other end of the ribbon streaming out of him. It probably wouldn't ever end up being a perfect circle in the game.

I think a Pac-Moveset would probably borrow from both the original game (due to nostalgia) and the Pac-Man and the Awkwardly Phrased Title Ghostly Adventures game (due to it being the most recent work starring him).

I think the big issue with Pac Man (aside from him being a has-been trying to be relevant) is I can't think of anything new he could do. The only thing I can think of is Butt Bounce, which would he a bouncy ground pound.

Count me in on the "no Pac Man" boat.

I admittedly wouldn't mind a Pac-Man assist if it were the flashy-as-all-hell Retraux one from Championship Edition. ^_^;

And yeah, Little Mac was confirmed. He has terrible air game, but an OHKO move.

[up][up][up]Sakurai deleted the entire game in a drunken stupor, so it's been delayed for another two years, and in order to fit Little Mac he's going to have to cut Mario, Mega Man, and Sonic. He's too big you see. Other than that, I don't think there's been any other Smash news.

I'm of the impression that Samus doesn't have any kidneys because she's a trophy.

But then there isn't much in Super Smash Bros that's real. Figurines of Nintendo characters fight each other on a two-dimensional plane in three-dimensional representations of their settings, and "death" is flying off the screen followed by regeneration on that same stage.

That's racist!

Just because Mac is ambiguously asian doesn't mean he gets stolen from all the time!

Regarding the "Bounce Pad" for Pac-Man: I'd rather not se yet another 3rd party character with a spring Up-B.

As a fan of the Soul Series, I'd still rather not see a Namco fighting game character in Smash. They have more than enough fighting game experience as it is. Lets see someone new.

Also, it's not like Smash is bad at coming up with movesets, for Pac-Man.

Well the Bounce Pad would be quite a bit different since it would require another move to utilize and uses more horizontal movement than Sonic's spring.

In terms of color pallets I hope we see one for Little Mac that references Super Punch Out.

@Mukora: That wasn't my intention. I was referencing a meme (which actually is racist, but not in the direction you were thinking of). You've probably heard of it, so I won't bother naming it or linking to it. Which is good, because I don't want to do that.

Unless you actually did know what I was referencing, and just wanted to make a joke about it. It's hard to tell these sorts of things on the Internet.

@Trash Jack: I do know the meme.

And as far as I'm aware "Asians get stolen from" isn't actually a stereotype.

I don't get why people are arguing that Pac's moveset would be a bust, I made a full one out of the fly in minutes.

Also, if Mac gets an alt, it's gotta be the pink tracksuit.

I thought he was ambiguously Italian. I mean, he's basically short Rocky.

Eh, he's of a race/ethnicity no one knows. That mystery makes him more intriguing!

[up]x4 Plenty of asians live in new York.

[up]x3 As an Italian, Little Mac doesn't look Italian to me whatsoever. Well, in the original he did, but in the remake he kinda looks Hawaiian.
