If anything, the ending of Snake Eater is very Un-patriotic.

Hmmm... 4th of July? Snake is American? Of course it's obvious who's going to be announced.

Signatures are for lamers.

Now that I think about it, Ness being revealed in 4th of July would make sense. After all, out of all of Nintendo's characters he is the only Eaglelander missing.

[down]Mac's from the US, he doesn't count!

They can't get rid of Ness. They just can't.

... Then again, Lucas is from the most recent installment.

Oh wait, the Earthbound Virtual console.

Ness is one of the Big Twelve; he ain't going anywhere.

Ness is probably safe, and I doubt Sakurai could bring himself to active remove Lucas, considering how Itoi is practically worshiped in Japan. I doubt we'll see anyone new from Mother, but I think Lucas and Ness are both safe.

Fingers crossed Lucas is further differentiated from Ness, though.

I sure said that!

[up][up]Ness is not safe by virtue of being one of the original 12. He is safe because he is the most recognizable Mother protagonist, is from a series with a strong cult following and recognition from Nintendo (EB on VC), and his game has the most exposure/is the only one whose game made it outside of Japan. Claiming that someone is safe just because "lol Grandfather Clause" is really myopic, I think.

Until one of the original 12 has been dropped, they are safe. That's my feeling on the issue.

Claiming that someone is safe just because "lol Grandfather Clause" is really myopic, I think.

I didn't mean to imply that was the only reason he's safe; I just meant that it's a reason, and it's a fairly solid one, IMO. None of the originals have been dropped across the thus-far two sequels, and at this point, dropping any of them would cause more harm than good.

There's always plenty of reasons for a character to not be cut. I just think that any of the originals getting cut is nigh-impossible levels of unlikely, so I wouldn't worry about them.
