Anyway... I'm predicting Sceptile will show up sometime, since it's the only Grass starter that isn't from an already represented gen with the right sort of body type for Smash.

I sure said that!

I'm also kinda mixed on Kirby's Final Smash being changed. It looks pretty much exactly like the Link/Toon Link Final Smash.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

You know, this detail kind of slipped by everything else, but it's nice to see Midna appear as an AT. And I love Rosalina's Final Smash. It just makes perfect sense.

...By the way, I hope someone counts the stars coming out of Rosalina's Final Smash to see if she launches 120.

At the very least, it's pretty clear that he knows about the Ridley thing, and is milking it for every *laughs* he can get.

One other thing that occurred to me - if they were going to make Sheik's moveset separate from Zelda anyways, it seems like a missed opportunity to give it to Impa...It's not a big deal, but it just seems like it would make more sense instead of having a separate character who's also Zelda and has only appeared in one game...I dunno.

It seemed clear to me that he was being intentionally ambiguous about Ridley. Whether his motives for doing so are simply to troll, or he wants to misdirect us, I cannot say.

Also, Just when you thought it was safe to go back to Tortimer Island...

What excites me the most is the Mega Man's Final Smash included MegaMan Trigger. It probably means nothing but still...

Personally, I never saw what all the fuss about Ridley is. I reckon he works just fine as a boss character (and, in fact, two in Brawl).

Right body type? If Ivysaur and Pikachu can make it in than I don't think body type's a limiter.

Feel free to tell me tomorrow when they finally change the name to "Pokémon VS. Mario" Because there's no reason why they wouldn't.

It wasn't a missed opportunity. If Impa can be playable, she can have her own slot and not be connected to Zelda. She has her own moves from multiple games to draw on. She doesn't have to be a lame replacement clone.

@Enlong: I could honestly barely hear Sakurai. I couldn't even tell how they were separated. I'm sure Smash Wiki will quote it or somebody will here. Still too bad, I liked transformations. But hey, if they strain the 3DS version, fair enough. I know they started to remove that from Shang Tsung in later games due to the size of the transformations and all.

Shadow?

#39942: Apr 8th 2014 at 4:08:41 PM

[up][up]Okay, this is getting silly.

There are four Pokemon characters and five Mario characters. That's the same number Melee had.

edit: Not sure if I like there being no transformations at all. I liked those.

I never saw what all the fuss about Ridley is.
Second most recurring Metroid character. Personal connection to Samus. Zombie dragon space pirate.

The entire time he was talking about Smash Run, I was thinking City Trial. Glad I wasn't off the mark there.

@Irene: But I don't want Impa in addition to Sheik. That doesn't strike me as particularly necessary or interesting. And half of the reason for it to begin with is that Sheik isn't especially important on her own.

Although who knows, maybe Sheik'll turn up in the Wii U Zelda.

@Kostya Mario, Bowser, Luigi, Peach, Rosalina/Luma, and depending whether you consider them Mario characters, Yoshi and Donkey Kong. Am I missing anyone?

So with Rids as a boss/hazard and Dark Samus as an AT, I guess Metroid is not getting a new rep. Oh, well... sad

I didn't really have high hopes for Ridley anyway, so this nail in the coffin isn't too upsetting. I'm more upset that the Wii U version is coming out later. Now when it comes out I'll already know the roster from the 3DS version, and it won't feel as fresh.

In all likelyhood, RIP Squirtle and Ivysaur. They will be missed.

Mega Man's FS is awesome. Can't wait to use it.

At this point, Ridley's dead to me.
