They just don't excite me as characters aside from MegaMan. The villager is just a souless avatar devoid of personality/goals/or any character developement whatsoever. Same thing can be said for the Wii Fit trainer but worst, I don't see her as a video game character but more of some kind of AI built inside a interface to present you a bunch of training games. As for Rosalina, I'm ok with her. But I feel their is more than enough Mario characters already. But I'm ok with her, especyaly as she seems unique to play. I want characters with character development and that actualy get to fight in their original games. You can build a moveset for villager or wii fit trainer but I will never recognize those characters in their movesets since they are all made up and they never fought in their games. And I wan't characters that I grew loving cause of their personality/actions/goals or w/v. Like Shulk, Krystal, K.Rool, Bowser Jr, Chrom, Isaac and Medusa. And the last thing, 3/4 of these characters are recent characters (well maybe I should also exclude the Villager). Both Rosalina and WiiFit tainer are from the Wii era (imo the worst era from nintendo for gamers). And the fact that they are all so recent makes me fear that they will focus on adding new characters instead of old ones that fans have been asking for years like some I mentioned above. I know they will add other characters and that by doing so they can fix all my complaints. But SO FAR, the new characters are leaving me hoping for more. |
Well to be fair Captain Falcon+Fox (as well as Falco/Wolf) and many others never had fought in thier games either! Thats why sakarai is great, villager has a completely unique moveset as well as Wii Fit trainer. Also i dont see sakarai putting in characters from so much as the wii era. Rosalina is very very popular as she also was finally playable in a platformer as well as appearing in other games. Wii Fit Trainer is the WTF character this time as SSBM+SSBB had their own as well! Also to note Wii Fit sold more than so damn much and thats why she is in the game!
As for more newcomers, i agree with more unique/memorable characters. But they need to be important/popular figures. Imo these characters have the best chance to be in the game (pls note this isnt my personal 5 but logical 5 off the top of my head)
1 Chrom: Yes this character is in the only FE game to sell over a million making him quite popular and he is also in the most recent game
2 Palutena: My favorite 3DS game but aside from that KI has gotten much more popular after SSBB+KIU. It has one representative for the franchise and Paletuna had more than enough reason to join. Sakarai also is the one to make up Pit+All Kid Icarus characters as they are now due to SSBB+KIU despite the original 2 games. (Medusa+Magnus has a chance as well but palutena seems the most likely)
3 Little Mac: Self explanatory. He is a popular character and got a reboot in the wii era.
4 Dixie Kong: Cuz of Tropical Freeze and she was in 2 of the 3 DK games on SNES! Also another female rep
5 Shulk (or X main character): Monolth is a fantastic developer. Nintendo needs to show them love and wat better way than SSB!
i have a top 10 but thats another time. Before this reveal Rosalina was in the tp 10 due to her overgrowing popularity!
