The same argument could be made for Mr. Game & Watch.
G&W (or ROB for that matter) were never brought up, but you are of course correct.

I hope that Smash 5 wouldn't get A LOT of characters cuts. I hope that you would remember my condolences if there are some cuts.
Edited: Here is my condolences that your perfect record got soiled by Batty. ;P
One of the stages I cut in the 3DS roster when I pared it down to 32 from 36 was a second Kirby stage. I'm not really willing to drop any of the others.What about Milky Way Wishes from Super Star Ultra as the 3DS Kirby stage?
Honestly I don't think Xenoblade is big enough to get a different stage on each version, but I felt it was necessary for it to have a stage of its own on the 3DS version.Gaur Plains would look great in 3D, but why both versions?
Well of course he's not as recognizable as Mario, Pac-Man and Pikachu, but he's still freaking Little Mac. My friend who hasn't had a system since the Game Boy Color instantly recognized him. In fact, it was his wife who never played games at all who recognized him. Purely anecdotal, but I've seen this happen numerous times, before we even get into the appearances on primetime TV (Goldbergs), at major sporting events, in pop culture boutiques, etc.
Compared to the likes of Ice Climbers and Ness (at the time he first appeared), he's pretty damn popular.
Fire:It's true though
For fire starters
Blaziken>Typhlosion>Infernape>Charizard>Emboar>Delphox
Water
Greninja>Empoleon>Swampert>Blastoise>Samurott>Croconaw (I really don't mean to insult your favorites, I would actually put last 3 equal)
Grass
Venusaur>Torterra>Sceptile>Chesnaught>Serperior>Meganium
You're next, don't you worry

Im not a big fan of obese or clunky final evolutions.
Went through stages of grief a long time ago. Actually asked several times in last thread
So what is it going to be
Btw, this avatar is still mine while I undergo what Batty has in store

poor mario:
I know I would lose someday but I'm pleased that I'm going to lose after you did. ;P
Not really. I would have imagined that those negative impressions is what caused few people burnt out.
Well at first I was going to let you pass, but after hearing the news.. I couldn't let that pass. :3
I will let you know on what juicy avatar I have in store for you. C;
Of course not.

Fire: Charizard > all
Grass: Chesnaught > all
Water: Doesn't matter, water is lame
Fire: Charizard > all
Grass: Chesnaught > all
Water: Doesn't matter, water is lame
Only one that slides because he can still move around at a reasonable manner and I dont like the fire fighting spawns that happened after Blaziken. Also nostalgia.Then why is Charizard so high on your list?
He's the 2nd chunkiest fire starter of all.
Fire: Charizard > all
Grass: Chesnaught > all
Water: Doesn't matter, water is lame
poor mario:
There's nothing odd happening there.I didn't play link as much as toon link in brawl... but could link's forward smash knock people backwards before?

You miss the point of Snake. He has waaay more of a legacy than Simon Belmont. Metal Gear is by far Konami's biggest franchise and some form of Snake is always the main protagonist. Simon Belmont has never consistently been the main character in Castlevania games. Even if Konami/Nintendo wanted a Castlevania character, it's not like Simon Belmont is the only choice the way that Snake is in his franchise. There have been maaaaany other Castlevania protagonists.I wanted (and want) Simon, not Snake. Snake misses the point of Smash Bros. He was there as a promotion of current products, not as a celebration of legacy, as Mega Man, Sonic, and Pac-Man are.
I see the Smash thread has finally gone to ranking lists for Pokémon. Only a matter of time before games/gens are being ranked.
Link.
the new screen KO is just greatpoor mario:
Well of course these non-gamers were exposed to it through others. That's how they were exposed to anything gaming-related.But it sounds like a lot of the people you're basing this on have had some contact with him through you or others. The Goldbergs is an odd example because it's set in the 80s and loosely based on the Adam Goldberg's life, where he probably had contact with it. I've honestly never seen the series referenced (outside of its affiliation with Mike Tyson) anywhere else, so I'm actually really curious where you're seeing it pop up.
Nice stealth edit.Ah, nevermind. That was kinda trollish.
Thanks. The stage roster is currently one of my biggest concerns. I really hope their decision to give each version its own stage roster doesn't gimp the overall stage count in either version, I want them to both feel like proper standalone Smash Bros. games, not incomplete halves to a whole that can never be actually finished.Green Mamba,
That was pretty good selections for most of stages. Hopefully we would get more than 30 stages each.

Toon Link is the best Link, so we're not missing much with Link.
Actually, he's been the main protagonist of a sizable portion of them:Simon Belmont has never consistently been the main character in Castlevania games.

I think if either version ends up having fewer stages than Brawl does I would consider the decision to separate the stage rosters to be a failure.
Well, you have a point thereLies, Toriyama still loves her.
EXACTLY.Re: Little Mac's popularity: I think you guys are getting too caught up on names. Not necessarily everyone may remember Little Mac, per se, but with the moveset and character it's not that difficult to remember "oh hey, it's punch-out guy!" It's just like Doomguy or whoever the fuck the protag in Crysis is.
You mean SCARF!Zelda U "Decent Looking Link model" costume DLC incoming
