But why do you consider making things up that were never in the games "part of Nintendo video game history"? It's not, it has much less to do with the games, actually, than things like the Metroid manga. :/

And just because "it sucks", doesn't mean absolutely everything originating from it is horrible and must be shunned unconditionally.

In fact, the phrase "It Sucks" is, inherently subjective and what sucks to one person may not necessarily suck to another person.

I, for example, like the anime. A LOT.

[up][up]But everything originating from it IS horrible!

Except Brock's drying pan.

Anyway, I wonder if we'll get a second Pokemon stage on the Wii U version. Melee had two, and Brawl had two plus one of Melee's. We already have the Kalos Elite Four building. It seems to go from room to room, which would make it sorta similar to the Stadiums' changing landscape.

For the fighting moves, there's only so much you can possibly think of in the"How would this work as an attack?" or the "How would this attack look in actual visible motion?" trains of thought when only using the source "game" material.

So he also has physical attacks, in addition to his mystic wave manipulation stuff, warrior's steadfast focus, and repeatedly emphasized status as The Empath.

Spooooooooooooooooon.
Seriously though, if it makes for a better game or more interesting experience, ties in with the related propery and doesnt cause legal issues, it should be fair game as far as including content or referencing material.

[up][up][up][up] Pokémon, I Choose You! begs to differ on that one. Even when watching today, I still feel that it's one of best Pokémon stories I ever seen, better than Pokémon Origins in many aspects.

Anyways, I hope that Mewtwo would appear, if only to see a missing fighter return for a later game, and thus proving that any player can come back.

Ya know, it'd be funny if they added the Virtual Boy in as either an item or an assist. How do ya think it'd work?

It'd latch onto an enemy's face and make them blind from all the red and black.

And there'll be a phrase at the bottom of the screen:

They added ROB as playable character. I could easily see other Nintendo peripherals or consoles joining the fight too. Like the Gameboy.

Wii Fit Trainer can spawn wii boards, so that's a partial one.

Nah, the consoles would be remote-lessly confirmed as gimmick stages...

R.O.B. is meant to be a character, so he stands out a bit compared to every other bit of hardware.

I sure said that!

Does anyone else think SSB 4's main theme and The Space Pirate Ship from Uprising share quite a few similarities; as in Melee to a lesser extent with the main theme and Koopa Road?

Giga Ridley confirmed.

@ Cassidy:

Ah jeez, when you said they added ROB as a playable character, I thought they announced ROB was returning to SSB 4.

…Rats. tongue

"Today, we're proud to reveal a new character to the game. You'll know him as the ruthless leader of the Space Pirates."

I'm kinda okay with it in the Trope Namer, but there, they at least also get to make other sounds as appropriate, at least in the games.

I sure said that!

Assuming his talons (legs) are free, I don't see how him flying makes a difference.

Even assuming he gets re-sized, he's still gonna be dang big.

Assuming this was in response to my post, you misunderstood. It's a given that Ridley would fly. The problem is that all the millions of fliers we have fly by multi-jumping, which makes them bob up and down.

Okay, I just went back and actually checked what it looks like. I was picturing it differently in my memories. Now the thing remains that no other playable character is able to just hover in place like that (except for Peach). Which does not make it impossible for him to be able to, but does make it less likely.

Aaand I don't know what you're referring to with the latter.
