of course, even characters who do talk in their games can tend to be silent in Smash.

...though, that's not usually the case with Fire Emblem characters in Smash.

But I don't think two sets of voice acting would be all that difficult. You'd need that even if all Robin had was Voice Grunts, anyway.

I guess we'd need to know if Wii Fit Trainer is going to be voiced to make any sort of real prediction.

Uh...Yes? We knew she was voiced from the moment she was revealed.

Or if that's an alternate costume. Was never confirmed, annoyingly enough.

@Cassidy: People don't just suddenly agree with everything right away. We do things here by consensus. Once the game comes out, and we find out if there are any alternate costumes that change one's sex(or earlier if Sakurai reveals those types of costumes), then we can decide on how we should write the sexes on the page, respectively.

Please be patient.

All the characters are voiced, really. Setting aside any characters with actual lines, there's sill stuff like grunts when attacking, hit, or KO'd.

edit:

On the costume. I'm not saying it's impossible that the male Wii Fit Trainer seen in that screenshot was actually an Assist Trophy or stage element. I'm just saying I find that to be a vastly less likely explanation for what we see in that screenshot.

Olimar was mute for whatever reason in Brawl. I hope they fixed that.

Regarding the possibility of cross-gender alternate skins, I'd propose just going by the default.

@Enlong: I heard Marth's Melee personality was nothing like his actual personality?

It turns out Mr. Game & Watch is actually Ms. Game & Watch.

Marth didn't really have a personality in Melee?

Honest question, Irene. Which explanation for that male Wii Fit Trainer screenshot do you think is true? You play the devil's advocate so often and so thoroughly that I honestly can't tell.

[up][up]

I dunno. I heard that once, and then later I heard differently. Like, it depends on how you interpret his tone?

How could it be anything but an alternate costume?

I still don't understand that.

The thing was that in Melee, Marth's personality was supposed to be that of an Attention Whore? Having not played Fire Emblem, I don't know how accurate that is to his original series incarnation.

Also, Ike's personality was different too?

I miss Roy.

I'm not sure where you get that idea. Is there something in the lines he has (which I've never bothered looking up the translation of) or something?

His taunt is "everybody look at me", for one.

Depends on the interpretation of that line, I think.

"Everyone, watch me!" could be attention whore-ish, but it could also be interpreted as a call to his friends to rally with him, among other possibilities.

There's also "Today, I survived.", which amusingly contrasts with the in-battle line "I cannot lose!"

I don't take speculation as blatant facts. Until a confirmation(and with exact context) comes up, I look at all possibilities.

As for Marth, I like he's an Attention Whore. Considering he's often in the high tiers, it just happens to fit.

Male Wii Fit Trainer could be an Assist Trophy. He didn't mention Starfy's status either(assumed to be an Assist Trophy again since he didn't get a character page right away). Keep in mind I do lean towards it being one, but it's still not confirmed or a fact. Since he kind of failed to even mention the existence of the costume as is. He just talked about the stage, and that's it. Very odd to ignore that.

I find it extremely unlikely that it would be an Assist Trophy, considering the jumping pose, and them being effectively the same character.

And he didn't talk about the stage in that picture. The quote with the picture was celebrating the release of Wii Fit U.

Seems pretty blatant to me. It's in the exact same pose, posted on the costume holiday, and Starfy wasn't mentioned because everyone already knew he was an assist.

But I'm getting away from my original question. Thank you for giving me your opinion on the matter, Irene, surrounding rhetoric aside. Playing the devil's advocate is a useful tool, but sometimes it makes me unsure of what one's position actually is.

Unlikely or likely, it's not confirmation of a costume. Since he failed to mention the costume in any way.

I was thinking of another picture at the time when I said that, mind you.

Anyway, the whole point is that it's not confirmation at all. It's fine if you believe that, to each their own. As long as these speculative things stay off the main Wiki Pages themselves, there's no big deal. We don't put that kind of speculation anywhere but WMG, respectively.

...Sometimes, this thread feels like a Phoenix Wright trial.

But seriously, Irene. The non-conclusive nature of this is well-known; I really only wanted to know which way you personally leaned for it, outside of the rhetoric about knowing for certain being an impossibility.

To be fair, I never honestly got that indication from your other posts. Just "Why do you not agree with the obvious?" instead.

Anyway, I really hope he confirms this stuff a bit more. I heard these games were coming out in Spring?
