It does, and it's still gooooood
That's why I actually prefer Gekkoga now

Yes. The thunder cloud when you use Thunder.
Good luck actually getting that meteor though. :V
Villager's DAir meteors if you're lucky. (If you get three turnips)
Or vice versa, just give Fox all of Falco's old specials through customization and turn Falco into a more feral fighter, like a true bird of prey. Mesh together a lot of his old properties and some of Wolf's fiercer moves.
Could've been cool, anyway.
Ike took down a god. Getting cut from Smash is impossible for him.
You forgot the most obvious reason thought.
4. He's the best FE character.
"Greninja" is a play on words, though. It's just that the word in question isn't an English word.
thank god for that
Wait, the cloud only, so you would have to be way underneath them? I was trying to hit them with the actual impact point from thunder, but that, or the bolt, seems to send them sideways instead.
Also if you use thunder off-stage, you're nearly suiciding unless you get the two-direction up-B off properly.
Do you see my avatar? I just assumed it was obvious to everyone.
However, to be precise, he took down half a God with the help of the other half of said God. He was still awesome while doing it, though.
Of course, but not everyone has played a FE. I'm just stating that's a fact and not an opinion that's all

Really it's only French (grenouille). Comes from Latin rana, but for some reason French stuck a g at the beginning, and no other language did.
But Gekkoga makes more sense and sounds cooler to my uncultured American brain :V"Greninja" is a play on words, though. It's just that the word in question isn't an English word.

from what i noticed it is cloud only the meteor effect from the cloud seems fairly strong though since ive seen it meteor in arund 40-60% range? (im not sure though) and something interesting i noticed is if u pull the meteor off at low percentages it brings your opponent down towards pika's center (where the thunder hits)

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
But Falco's a dickhead, not a feral fighter.
whats the difference!?
I mean, it would be a stretch, but if we're going to play seniority for Falco I would still like to see him differentiated from Fox a bit more.

I thought he said Lord. Everyone knows Nephenee is the best FE character.
What about Amphinobi?
It's its French name, obviously from shinobi and amphibie I think? (Mean living on earth and in sea)

They seem a lot less offensively orientated to me, to a fault, almost. I had a Level 9 CPU Olimar do nothing but roll back and fourth around me (while I stood still) for a minute straight once.

Don't underestimate his popularity in Japan.
Ike is way less 'safe' than Robin is, and I say that confident that Ike is going to return to the next game. Robin offers a completely new playstyle from any other FE character (so getting rid of him/her would be incredibly baffling given how different he is from any other character), and Awakening itself represents the most popular franchise that the franchise has ever seen, as well as being major turning point in terms of its' overall success. It literally saved the franchise, after all. FE13 is going to be remembered as a big event for the series, and characters like Robin and Lucina strike me as anything but 'flavour of the month' - definitely not to the same extent Sheik or Ike were. You might have a case for Lucina, but while there are definitely 'other' easy clones you could make off Marth's base, few are as ridiculously popular as Lucina and she's the only female FE representative (which frankly, the series deserves). Her best shot at being 'knocked out' is if she's replaced by the next game's Lord, and even then I'd doubt it. I expect her to come back, anyways, likely with a little more differentiation in animations/properties.
Awakening is going be here to stay for the next Smash regardless of anything. In the larger context of FE's history, it'd be very hard to go bigger.
You'll see at least one Pac-Man online when the game is released in NA. Treehouse made him look super fun.
Gotta abuse those generous invincibility frames. Speak of that, how fast is yoshi's roll now?

Yeah, Charizard looks awesome in the streams I've seen.

If they keep DLC characters in FE, and especially if they improve their mechanics and make them comparable to the game's main cast next time, Ike could remain with some big presence, especially if they keep all the marketing for him that they had in Awakening's DLC, like always going on about how he's the strongest hero and such. The same goes for Lucina though. They'll obviously want to cash in on Awakening's cast next time.
Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn were the worst selling FEs in Japan though... It's just within the hardcore FE fanbase itself that he's popular. Although IS itself seems to push him quite a bit for whatever reason.

Seems about the same, though I don't have Brawl on hand to compare to at the moment. Still seems a little slow.
Guys...
Kirby basically replaced Ice Climbers...
Kirby likes to take the place of other characters so much... :/

I think Zipzo said he was using an XL that was modded for capturing and didn't have the bulk of 3DScapture, but I don't remember what it was.
Also, Pikachu feels kind of bad in the demo. Thunder is completely useless now that you can't use it to KO people off the top of the stage. Up smash also feels really weak now. He racks up damage well enough, but nothing really felt like a solid kill move. Plus a lot of his moves have a ton of end lag.
Mario feels really good though. Love getting those KOs with fair and fsmash/usmash/uair are also good KO moves, or at least get the opponent out there to finish them with a fair.
Played a little Link. I have sucked at using him since Smash 64 and that didn't really change here. Never lost a match with him but I'm just bad at managing the projectiles. Haven't played Mega Man or Villager yet, I can't see myself enjoying Mega Man though.
Pikachu's Fsmash is pretty destructive.
He's still a Falcon clone. He does use his sword in one of his custom specials though. It's just a warlock punch while he's holding the sword, which gives him more range, but it's better than nothing.
Rockman is only bad if you try to play him like a traditional character. Not saying he's going to be "top tierz herp derp." But he can kill at some pretty decent percentages, and he has a great keep away game, especially when the opponent is off stage.
He's a beast in free for all though, I feel like he was made for that mode.
Nice wristband for those who play sports like basketball.
Yes to if all.
Many thanks dude. *ordered*
His warlock punch has super armor and his customs are broken as hell. Its a good time to be a Ganon main.
Woohoo just beat classic on 9.0. Captain falcon all the way. That knee destroys everything.
Yeah I like his changes, but playing online w/ lag meant i lost every single time since I couldn't land anything :/ I don't recommend him for online

Cool. What did you get for beating that challenge?
