Super Smash Bros. series

Same here. I saw some people getting upset over Cloud and I was like "Seriously? Why are people mad?". Then I remembered it was the internet.

I don't think Cloud's situation is any different than Pac-Man's. They're recognizable characters, their original games are still the most famous/popular things they've been in, and nobody really cares that much about their past appearances on Nintendo consoles.

lol, a cloud amiibo in tap wont make it past the opening cutscene

I missed that game's announcement. What systems does it come out on?

Mighty no. 9 had a chance to release in this year of dreams but it got delayed. So did Starfox and Zelda. Tri force heroes has been begging me to buy it, however.

Incidentially, was it ever covered here that the December stream will be the last Smash stream?

"Additionally, a special broadcast – the last one for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS – will be released in December."

Whatever characters get announced in that stream will probably be the final DLC characters. We still have two more characters to be confirmed for the game.

Tbh, DLC characters and training amiibo fighters are really the only thing that bring me back to Smash 4. I burnt out quicker on the 4th Smash then I did on any other Smash game. It's certainly a polished game, but for some reason it didn't grab me like the original, Melee, and Brawl did.

With Cloud, who is Sony's and Square's baby, coming to Smash 4. I took the liberty of creating a list of game developers that hasn't been featured yet in this game. Keep in mind this is subjective. This is my list and mine alone. Enjoy.

Konami: Simon Belmont. I know, Snake appeared in the previous game and people wants him back as the Konami representative. TBH, I’d rather have Simon for a number of reasons. 1) Simon has a much richer history with Nintendo than Snake. I know that we’ve had some Metal Gear games on Nintendo consoles (first one being on the NES) but when people think Konami and Nintendo, Castlevania is the more likely answer. 2) With Equipment in the game, it would be nice that Zero Suit Samus didn’t have a monopoly on Whip equipment.

Final Smash Idea: Something like Megaman’s where we have a Castlevania all-star roster pwning the unlucky target(s)

Yes. I hail from the Dungeon and I am not ashamed to admit it. *Represents... albeit maybe poorly*

Riot Games: Draven. Why Riot Games? League of Legends is the most popular game in the world for a reason. It is the #1 reason why eSports is a thing right now. With over 100 champions in that game, we have no shortage of ideas on who would be the ‘Face of LoL’ on a Nintendo console. Why Draven? Why not put that Show-boating, Narcissist executioner in? Besides. Smash could use some more villain love.

Also. Link vs Draven. Rematch of GameFAQS Character Battle IX. Draven won BTW.

Final Smash Idea: Why not just use his ultimate?

Blizzard: Sarah Kerrigan/Queen of blades. Blizzard has many iconic characters in their collective franchises. Limiting to just one felt like ripping all but one of my limbs off. Ultimately (Yes. I have all my limbs), it came down to two. The Lost Vikings and Kerrigan. Why Kerrigan? 1) The lost Vikings would probably remind people of Ice Climbers and I don’t want to piss off the Nintendo Fan base any more than I already do with this list of suggestions. 2) More villain representation. 3) Queen B***h of the Universe. HOW DO YOU TOP THAT?

Final Smash Idea: A literal Zerg rush across the screen.

Microsoft: Master Chief. Let’s get one thing clear. I’ve never played any Halo games outside of Halo 1. That being so, I do recognize how important Halo is important to gamers so. Here.

Final Smash: No clue, maybe you guys can post ideas

Ubisoft: Jade (Beyond Good and Evil). I know that Ubisoft have more popular franchises but I chose Jade to remind gamers that she does exist and to remind Ubisoft that we are STILL waiting on Beyond Good and Evil 2.

Final Smash: (insert something here)

Atlus: Shin Megami Tensei 4 Protagonist. He’s the best choice. The game is built to introduce newcomers to the franchise and Nintendo and Atlus don’t mind the occasional shameless advertisement.

Final Smash: Something like Duck Hunt dog but with some of the more iconic demons from the game.

Bioware: Revan (Knights of the Old Republic). Even to this day, KotOR1 is still one of the most (if not THE most) beloved game from Bioware. Plus Revan can double over as a LucasArts representative as well. 2 for 1 isn’t a bad deal.

Final Smash: A flurry of lightsaber strikes followed by a torrent of Force powers.

Bethesda Games: Dovankiin. Do I even need to explain this one?

Eidos: Adam Jensen. With Another Deus Ex coming why not capitalize on this opportunity. Besides, Adam did show up on the Wii U with the director’s cut.

Final Smash: Typhoon system. Limited range but very powerful explosions surrounding Adam for massive damage if not outright smash power.

I'm actually pretty excited for that Smash showcase. It's always a fun watch.

I think realistic characters could work very well sometimes. Captain Falcon for example was just a race pilot person, but they got creative with him and now he's a lot of people's favourites. Overall as long as we get more variety and less clones I'm fine with whatever character they introduce... And more stages with fun music/gimmicks of course

Still want to see a Vader vs Mewtwo battle though... maybe a Death Star battle stage too. Or Coruscant fighting on top of all those flying vehicles?
