Hey wanna play smash? pick your character!

>fuck kids

But I'm not Catholic.

Kids don't act like this

I actually work at a daycare and talked to a group of 8 year olds about Smash once.
They love shit like K. Rool, Ridley, Bayonetta, Ryu, etc despite having never played a game starring those characters. It was the same way when I was a kid with 64, I had no idea who anyone but Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and "that Super Mario guy" were and I still loved it. The reality is that kids will end up liking a character simply because they are in Smash Bros

One of the kids was into roster speculation (just remember, that rosterfag on the other side of the screen might be a literal 8 year old, he told me Ridley was his favorite inclusion and that "he couldn't believe sakurai finally did it" and I really didn't know how to feel about those words coming out of an 8 year olds mouth) and he knew who Banjo and Kazooie were.

Because when you were a 4th grade degenerate wondering who Marth and Roy were you totally didn't try them out and realize that Marth was op.

Zoomers have already dropped smash and just play fortnite like their favourite streamers. I know zoomers who don’t even know Link or Samus.

I'm 25, and I literally had no idea who Ness, Marth, Roy, and Game and Watch were, but Melee made me interested to find out and explore their origins or at least understand them.

You have a shit idea on how kids approach characters they don't know.

I didn't know who half the characters were when I played melee as a kid and I didn't give a fuck

Nah every time we have a family “thing” I play smash with the little kids and they all love it. All ages too 3,7,11, etc.

Now it is true that they don’t know 97% if the characters, but that seems to be a huge part of the novelty for them.

>implying kids give a shit about which character they play as and don't just want to have fun

this. People act like kids don't know how to use the internet when
1. It's easy to just search something up
or
2. You can learn secondhand knowledge by just watching someone

You're full of shit
t. Metroidfag who first learned of Samus through Brawl

I'm 25 years old and I never knew Link, just never had any of his games. When I saw him on the podium in DKC2 I thought it was Peter Pan. I learned him, Kirby, Ness, Marth, and a lot more from Melee. All I really knew about was Mario, Donkey Kong and Pokémon.

My nephews know about all the new characters in smash because the faggot youtubers that they watch get excited by them, so they get excited in response

I played the OG smash bros and didn't know who Captain Falcon was, or Ness, and there was only 10 total characters so the fact those little niglets get 70 characters should be enough for them.

Melee was the first Nintendo game I ever bought. Before then I had owned Sega or Playstation only. All I recognised were characters from Mario and Pokémon. Everything else I learnt from the trophy descriptions.

based 8 year old

Every zoomer in the world knows who Banjo is thanks to Jontron and Dunkey.

He's honestly a pretty cool kid, his most wanted is Snorlax and I thought that was awesome.

>whichever one puts me at 18 right now
Hmm

No just Muslim

I wonder how Jontron reacted to Banjo’s smash reveal?

I'm the only one in my family to have ever touched an N64 and I myself don't give a fuck about Banjo but my little brother was pretty hyped. He also knew who Joker was despite having never touched any MegaTen game so who knows.

Playable Snorlax could be like the complete inverse of Jigglypuff, it would be absolutely incredible. Instead of being able to jump a hundred times, he can only jump once and it's awfully small. Instead of being the lightest character in the game he would be the heaviest. His rollout would have the force of a warlock punch. His pound would have greater start up time but break sheilds in one hit instead of two. His rest would only be half as strong, perhaps only a third as strong, thanks to how much easier it is for him to land up, but his up special is snore instead of sing which builds up over the game like wario waft.

You have never seen a kid in your life, they don't need to know the characters, or you knew who the fuck Ken was when you first played a street fighter character? you knew who Heihachi was when you first played Tekken? do you really think kids don't pick character of how cool they look or how cute they are?

>ameribrown mutts

Go ahead and find me an elementary or middle schooler that wouldn't be interested in shitting a grenade onto his friends in a multiplayer game.

I'll wait.

I have a 5 y/o and a 3 y/o. All they used to care about was Roblox and Splatoon, now my son (5 y/o) has started to ask for a brother "because that way we can be like Ken and Ryu or Mario and Luigi"

My little girl is OBSESSED with Princess peach and my son likes inklings. You're wrong OP. I didnt know who Ness or Captain Falcon were when I started playing Smash 64 but their presence made me curious and I sought them out.
