I heard that they were the most prolific and longest in 64. I think that's one of the main reasons why some professional Smashers prefer to play it.

I never played that competitively at all. Makes sense.

Melee I did, but low-level. I ran tourneys too at a Game Convention.

Anyone remember the Special Movie in Melee? It had some combos the developers themselves came up with. They even show an instance of the Ice Climbers de-synching. Man I loved watching this video; so many funny, awesome, and just plain fun moments in it. A shame it didn't have one with the secret characters in it.

@Sterok Boooo. I loved Hunters and I always remember it. They may be Waluigi-level importance (even if they showed up less) but they'd still make for okay additions to any Smash game.

Sylux is probably the only one who might have appeared in two games, but the rest are still cool enough.

I thought of that too but Mist only gets a white cape when she's wearing orange.
I noticed that, too. However, Mist does have a palette that's got her in a yellow dress with a white cape (well, cape/scarf thing) for her promotion in Radiant Dawn. It's a bit odd that that would be the basis of one of Lucina's palette swaps, and then she should have white boots, not black boots, but there really aren't all that many characters in Fire Emblem who wear yellow OR have brown hair, much less both.

I suppose that if you look at it as a dirty blonde instead of brown hair, it could be a Lissa/Owain palette. It'd probably also be easier to tell with a picture from the front.

It also occurs to me that most (or all) of Robin's alts are based on other characters. Green!Robin and Red!Robin are Stahl and Sully, Blue!Robin and Yellow!Robin are Virion and Lissa, and Black/White!Robin and Pink!Robin are... okay, I'm just guessing here, but Kellam and Olivia.

I actually like Hunters too. Not a good Metroid game, but still a fun handheld multiplayer FPS. Trace was boss of course. Sylux is the only one that might appear in a future game though.

I'm not sorry for this avatar change.

It was totally a good Metroid game...

I'm still holding out for the sequel with character storylines, alliances and Sylux's deal with Samus.

^Oh so that's what all the fuss is about.

Roy's coloring on Marth. No hair change, sadly. But it's pretty much identical to his clothes.

Ha, Palutena hanging off a pole is just something I'd expect from her.

[up][up] Yeah, I could see her flaunting her looks in such a manner as well.

I now want a comic of her using that taunt against Pit just to see his reaction.

...Did you say Waluigi level? Implying that Waluigi is low on the rung compared to them? NEVER!

Waluigi is in a tier all of his own! WAA! Ridley may have rocked the purple look before Waluigi, but Waluigi enhanced it!

@Irene: There's only a picture of Marth there, and he looks nothing like Roy.

Oh, it was two images. My bad.

Anyway, that's very similar to Roy's clothes in Melee. They look amazingly alike. I don't know why he didn't get the red hair to make him fully look like Roy, but eh.

I noticed that the hair wasn't red and thought, "Yeah, that's nothing like Roy". Even if their clothes are similar, that's not really the part that grabs a person's attention. Not when there's blue hair.

Why didn't they just make him Roy? They made Olimar turn into Alph.

#57369: Sep 10th 2014 at 8:06:03 PM

[up] Who knows. Maybe they didn't want him only an Alt since he was playable previously?

[up][up] That's why I said colorings and not an alt. But yeah, it's a nice reference at best.

They were probably thinking they'd do that with Lucina, but then you know what happened.

Question. How well do you think the hype from Nintendo has been handled. Too much hype? Not enough? Just right? Focusing on the right things? Should've focused on other things? Paid off the media enough? Didn't pay off the media enough? Didn't pay the media at all?

I thought fairly well. Sakurai at times could've had a more logical Pic of the Day to coincide with various game releases or Directs for an easy unveiling, but that's kind of it.

Pics of the Day have been underwhelming lately, but they're not doing a bad job. People are naturally excited for the game, so it doesn't take much.

Anyway, someone on Neo GAF may have the game already, so keep your eyes peeled.
