Never mind it's a made up number, but what are "people who play smash" even? That's the beauty of Smash. Shit's made for everyone with enough depth to get really deep into it. I've seen people that have never played a game absolutely love it and join in, people who haven't played games for multiple console generations, etc. It's highly accessible, fun, and you've got a wide berth of characters to enjoy.
Never mind all the characters in the game that haven't had a game in forever or were never very widespread. Rob? Game and Watch? The entirety of Fire Emblem? Captain Falcon? Little Mac? Ness? Sheik? You don't need to be a colossal character with decades of background or current generation games to be included.
Erdrick i believe. I'm 99% sold on him
Ryu i believe too.
Like everyone else, Doomguy is the hardest to swallow for me; there's precedent for bombs in Smash and even guns with Bayonetta, but I just can't imagine Ness taking a shotgun blast to the face. What would he even do?
Shotgun blasts could be an easy smash attack to implement and you got his shotgun tether for his UP+B.
I’ll accept Doom guy if they use the old school doom guy face as his character portrait and it gets bloodier and more bruised as his damage percent increases >.> also BFG final smash
BOF3 Ryu is best Ryu. Force Gene Ryu just looks so goddamn hard.
What would a BOF3 Ryu do outside of an ultimate dragon transformation and swing a sword around?
I'm super hyped for Erdrick, specially because a friend of mine who hasn't touched a Smash ever is an ultra DQ fan and says he will pick up the game if Erdrick is in. And with Smash, you can count that he's going to be represented 100% true to the character with lots of cool and faithful references.
So, yeah, if this is another Geno case it's going to be my turn to be really, really let down because of a false hope.
They need to bring suikoden 2 characters
Ok not really just wanted to bug Julian
How about Alex or Hiiro from Lunar or Lunar 2?
His ultimate would be Kurt Cobain swooping in on an iron chariot, dragged along by skeletal horses. Pulls out a shotgun and blows his brains out, the raining grey matter and blood deals lethal damage, blood and grey matter that hits the stage would act as hazards. Nice throw back to Doom's map Nirvana giving you a shotgun at the start.
Would be cool if his was him circle strafing around a cyber-demon and you’re caught in the crossfire of rockets.
I'm still holding out for a Falcom rep
