Any shillmon. I even like Pichu, but he's a weak addition to the game.

I'd say the miis were the lamest

Palutena. Who the actual fuck ever pretended to care about her?

Dude you forgot Sonic on the brawl part

a tie between incineroar and rosalina

Both had good trailers though. Least "hype" was probably Isabelle. Or Rosalina's trailer for pretending to be kirby air ride.

Chrom, Dark Samus and Daisy. Simply because they didn't have a trailer and the reveal was just "oh, here are some requested characters that we turned into echoes for others". I'll cut Chrom some slack, because he had a reveal trailer of sorts back in 2014.

Palutena. No matter what we say about Fire Emblems sucking literally NOBODY but mommyfags like Palutena.

The Hero.
Only 5 people out of Japan gave a shit.

Corrin, but I still think the moveset is neat.

Corrin

those are the 8 first newcomers for those games

Ikr, Rosalina got revealed after stuff like MegaMan and Little Mac, literally nobody cares about her and inceneroar (who is also missing in the goddamn pic) was reaveled after the Belmonts and fuckin K.rool how can you too that?

It is most certainly Corrin

fire emblem trash for sure

Palutena is great, sounds like you're just trying to be contrarion

Inkling. As if anyone who isnt a pedo actually cares about them. They come from a shit game and were entirely predictable and boring.

I don't think anyone but Sakurai asked for dark pit

Chrom. Who asked for rejects?

Joker was anti-hype

He's an echo and a literal clone. None of them generated a lot of hype.

>ridley

>Get pozzed

You are talking like splatoon doesn't have a huge completive scene and literally everyone who shills them here and everywhere else is a pedo, infact you and I are pedos for caring that much about Splatoon, wtf is wrong with you fellow pedo?

At the time Smash 4 was being developed Kid Icarus Uprising has appeared to not only have revived Kid Icarus, but positioned it as a strong brand going forward. Uprising was one of, if not the best 3DS game, and was incredibly popular so it made sense it would get favorable treatment in Smash. No one could have known that the IP would die again.

Incineroar. You could hear a collective "eh..." throughout all of twitch and youtube.

Corrin or Piranha Plant
assuming ironic hype doesn't count

These. There wasn't a reveal that had such a milquetoast response as Corrin. Another FE sworsdman that was an advertisement for a game that hadn't even been released in the West yet was a pretty fucking disappointing reveal. If Bayonetta hadn't also been revealed in that presentation and Cloud wasn't made available the same day, I imagine the blowback would've been louder than just being general apathy.

Dark Pit is fun for KIU fans, but he should have just been named Pitoo.
People critizing it are also unaware that Pitoo is a parody of the trope of the evil doppelganger.

miis or Corrin

Inkling. The single most obvious pick and revealed in a general trailer announcing Ultimate, with no gameplay. By the point E3 rolled around and we got a look at them in action, they felt lke a returning veteran rather than a newcomer.

Nah this was hype because it BTFO grinchfags

anyone who says anything other than corrin is just upset or biased, even wii fit trainer was more "hype" because of how unexpected and out of left field it was

>I even like Pichu, but he's a weak addition to the game.

I liked how he appeared right after the "EVERYONE IS HERE" reveal. To emphasise that they weren't fucking kidding.

People wanted Big Purple for years. Chrome was "Oh, that guy that was left out for a Marth echo is in, and he's an echo as well."

>the only people who wanted him were "epic salt"fags
that doesn't really make him hype

>Smash
All were cool, maybe ness

>Melee
Pichu

>Brawl
Maybe Pit, but the most disappointing was Wario

>Smash 4
Mii fighters

>Ultimate
Incineroar, no doubt. He was the hype killer during the last smash direct and the excitement took a nose dive. Incineroar sucks so so bad, I started playing the game days before the official release and I still havent picked him. Incineroar is the worst addition because it felt like an insult, at least the mii fighters and pichu are joke additions, incineroar just sucks

Wii Fit Trainer.

>Rosalina
>Palutena
>Corrin
>Incineroar
All of these went beyond "least hype" and generated straight up anti-hype instead.

isabelle and incineroar, even worse that they were back to back.

Pichu, easily.

the others i would agree on but incineroar was legitimately hyped up by zoomers and pokemon fans.

>marth isnt unlocked by default

Kid Icarus fans did. I waited 20 years for a new Kid Icarus game and Sakurai shit out that embarrassment. I'd rather the series stay dead than get raped any further.

>being this autistic over an image
Your (You) sire.

It really wasn't, especially not by Pokémon fans. For every supporter it had there was someone else fucking dreading its inclusion.

Incineroar or Greninja.

I also don't care for Bayonetta, but i understand her popularity.

Are you retarded? Uprising was always very obviously a one-off passion project by Sakurai.

Lucina was in the same trailer, same game, and you pick the unique and fun character as the worst.

Lucina, dark pit, bowser jr. chrom

Inkling. The series still has yet to prove itself worthy.

Easily Dark Pit.

Say what you will about Palutena (who existed in Brawl so anyone apart from the 15 that played KIU knew her) and FE characters (Awakening was in full swing, Robin and Lucina had an awesome trailer, and Fates was on the horizon), Dark Pit saying "I'll be in!" at the end of Palutena's trailer felt like a joke.

And then he got his own fuckin' trailer, accompanied by nothing but bitching. I don't think more than 15 people were excited about him.

My least favorite characters in that image are pichu, little mac and diddy kong.

>And then he got his own fuckin' trailer
No he didn't.

Corrin by far. Actual negative hype. I remember seeing the trailer and the feeling of despair. I wanted to die.

>And then he got his own fuckin' trailer
Did he? I thought he was a secret character?

Lol I see this autist is still at it

Rosalina or incelroar

Ahh, I just misremembered. I swore he got one.

Either way, once he was announced for real, it was embarrassing.

64 is the starting roster, no one there was unhype. You can't count it in.
Melee was the first sequel and it came shortly after 64 and everyone there was a surprise, I don't remember anyone caring about newcomers there because the concept was still too new, we just got the first game and now we had the first sequel and it was the first time we had gotten new characters. So again, you can't really count melee newcomers here.
The real newcomer hype only began with Brawl because now we knew what to expect, the franchise was already big and the updates made it very hype.
Every Brawl newcomer was hype. Every single one. We got big names that were long overdue, fanservice, old characters reimagined, and even out of nowhere suprises like Sonic or Snake.
So that leads us to WiiU. And we have to count the DLC as part of the game because it is part of the game. And out of all the WiiU characters one stands out the most:
Corrin
No one knew about them, no one cared about them and no one wanted them.
Yet here they are as DLC out of nowhere for no god damn reason other than to market the game to the japanese audience.
They are objectively the least hype character ever introduced to the game.
Second would be Bayonetta for pretty much the same reasons. Another character nobody wanted and nobody cared about who got in to market yet another game Nintendo was publishing and took a valuable third party position that could have gone to someone that mattered to the Nintendo audience.
Besides those two theres no one I can think of as being "unhype".
They are all either big third parties, old classic characters that deserve a spot or new characters that already solidified their place in Nintendo history like Inkling.
Don't even bother arguing, this is fact.

Incineroar the character himself was fine, his reveal wasn't.Tthe reason he killed the hype was because people expected more than the obligatory new gen pokemon and a Ryu skin as the last reveal after already getting huge fan favorites like Ridley Bellmont and K.Rool.

I didn't play Brawl or 4. Did they remove some of the Melee characters or Brawl characters in 4?

As much as I love WFT, her. I was personally hyped for her, but her reveal was a complete afterthought after the sm4sh reveal. The shrugs could be heard from around the world.

Young Link, Roy, and Mewtwo didn't come back, I think.

gotta say 4 had the worst newcomers overall

Chrom, literal anti-hype

The Persona faggot

>"Perhaps I'll get my chance another day"
>Gets his chance

Just because you don't like him doesn't make it anti-hype

let's see
>64
easily Jigglypuff, but at least she was popular at the time, so i guess it's fine
>Melee
if not counting clones, Marth. nothing bad about him, just the least interesting. if counting clones, Pichu. Pikachu but bad.
>Brawl
Toon Link. again, nothing awful, but the least interesting character.
>Smash 4
without counting DLC, the Miis. they really fucked up the execution on these characters. counting DLC, i don't even need to say. just look for Corn in your shit
>Ultimate
easily Incineroar. shillmon, anti-hype, only contrarians and "le salt" fags care about him. only way somebody could replace him is if it's another FE shill

>64
Ness and Captain Falcon
>Melee
Ice Climbers, Young Link, Pichu, Falcondorf
>Brawl
Ike and R.O.B I guess?
>4
Miis, Wii Fit, Corrin.
>Ultimate
Incineroar (mostly because of his role in the leak war) and Isabelle (really boring trailer)

>gotta say 4 had the worst newcomers overall

Dr. Mario, Pichu, Mewtwo, Roy, and Young Link were all missing on Brawl after being introduced in Melee.
They were also missing in smash 4 along with Lucas and Wolf and Pokemon trainer.
Dr. Mario was back in smash 4 and Mewtwo, Lucas and Roy were added to smash 4 as dlc.

He's just so meh.

Chrom ranks very low on hype but being a clone plus also being a meme and actually having a few dedicated fangirls made him somewhat better received.
Compare that to Corrin who was an original character, DLC, had no fans and no one knew them.

Probably Corrin or Palutena

Smash 64 is the best lol.

Melee roster is fucking awful, prove me wrong. The only good and iconic characters were boswer, peach and the ice climbers.

Brawl did it good and ultimate roster is very good.

Isabelle

Persona faggot and bayonetta, those cumdumpsters brought nothing worthwhile to the game. That is the definition of anti hype.

Corrin was hilarious. Not only did no one give a shit, but Corrin turned out to be perhaps the worst character in the entire series

>Little Mac
she got revealed before Little Mac. to add salt to the injury, she got revealed months and months after the triple E3 reveal. HOW THE FUCK WE SURVIVED THAT????

People are criticizing it because he's the same character colored black. He has no different gameplay.

Corn and solo Charizard are the worst characters

>Corrin
The most shameless and unearned "buy my game" promotional plug in either game's DLC, the cringiest reveal trailer, had no presence in the west when revealed, cost extra without a stage just because of a piece of music, and is a character that is almost universally despised in-universe by actual FE fags; bonus points for being emblematic of the major reason many western fans initially balked at Hero
>Kencineroar
Kinda boring on its own already, but saving it as the finale for the retail Ultimate roster was incredibly retarded, especially when August had exciting as hell reveals; Incineroar's model also looked really goofy and off in the cinematic trailer (I don't know why, his menu render looks fine)
>Isabelle
Bland and obvious as fuck almost immediately but the "suspense" was dragged on for too long; easily the lowest effort of the CG trailers
>Rosalina
Cockteasing Air Ride fans, and a "flavor of the month" Mario pick that, like Palutena, only mommyfags like
>Chrom
The only one here that didn't get a CG trailer or was DLC, but he deserves a mention for taking the FE representation situation from an annoyance to an outright mockery (four fucking Marths, you can't make it up)

dark pit

Little mac

Yeah but he's a literal skin to Pitt.
He's not hype but most reasonable people can take a look at him, figure out he's not really meant to be a real character and ignore him.
It doesn't kill hype because we know he didn't take anyone's spot on the roster and he didn't take any cinematic for himself.

When it comes to incineroar, I’m indifferent about him. I don’t hate him, I just thought he’s reveal was underwhelming.

Robin, Corrin, Incineroar, Joker

these four are the first on the chopping block

>It doesn't kill hype because we know he didn't take anyone's spot on the roster
Alph was fucking robbed

I will never understand why Alph wasn't an echo with rock pikmin when rock pikmin weren't even available as custom moves

>Robin
Nigga had one of the best trailers for Smash 4.

only because captain falcon was in it

>>palutena
>i never played the goat 3ds game: the post
lmaoing @ your life

It's not Robin either because everyone, e v e r y o n e suspected we would get Chrom. Having a nonstandard blue haired swordie was great. Not to mention the amazing Falcon reveal.

Seems like a no brainer, really.

if only Alph wasn't so bland, he might have had a chance...

every pikmin character is bland aside from louie

From that list, Zero Suit Samus
In general, Bayonetta

WHO GIVES A SHIT

Attached: nigtendo.png (617x812, 223K)

Even if you liked Uprising having Palutena as the public E3 reveal and showing fucking Pac-Man behind closed doors was legitimate retardation.

Good list only missing Bayonetta.
Hyped new dlc character reveal starts with a hype trailer, everyone wondering who it was.
Then massive disappointment when she shows up. Most players didn't even know who the fuck it was.It turns out to be the protagonist of some random third party action game that nintendo was porting to the WiiU to help with the system's game drought and they wanted to market her, so same situation as Corrin but this one gets much worse.
It's soon evident how shamelessly rushed the character was with broken mechanics that literally killed the competitive scene and made twitch viewership drop from 10k to 2k in just 6 months of being out. This all lled to some of the most embarrassing moments the community has ever dealt with including but not limited to entire audiences walking out of finals, top players stalling matches out of spite towards the viewers and talks of banning her divided the scene.

>Britany and Charlie being bland
this is extremely false

seethe

Well yeah, he was a big part of it but they’ve revealed a lot in that trailer alone.

>Just leaked one day, including gameplay footage
>Even if you didn't see the leak, chances are high you encountered a Junior on For Glory before seeing his trailer which was shown MONTHS after the games release

You can't get more lukewarm than this

Attached: 1561531234083.png (620x824, 29K)

Charlie is very bland. Britany is kind of bland but the least bland of the three in 3

We could have got a SMT rep but nooooo

Let's add a character which game isn't even on a Nintendo console

>roster leaked right before shulk reveal
damn shame, would have lost my shit once I saw bionis

Corrin, transparent shill pick. He beats out everyone. Runner-up is Roy, another shill pick, who is only saved from total awfulness by being an easy to make clone and included on the base roster. Then again he was later packaged and sold as DLC while still being 70% Marth assets but I guess he was considered nostalgic by you faggots by then.

From there it's a little bit muddier. I guess it's easy to pick on a character like Young Link for being a bit lame but that's still just a clone. While I'm a huge fan of Uprising I can totally see why someone would find Palutena a really weak addition only here because of Sakurai's personal preferences. Zero Suit will remain one of the strangest additions in Smash's history, just Samus from that brief epilogue in Zero Mission. Then there's Incineroar, a divisive design from a mediocre game indicative of the Pokémon franchise's decline, but at least they did a good job on its moveset. I guess Greninja gets a pass because the design was immediately popular.

Attached: 1502768579991.gif (270x188, 1.78M)

Seriously. And sadly it looks like history might repeat itself with Pickmin 4 coming so late it won't be represented on Smash at all again.
No brainer but Nintendo needed to spend more resources on the 100 giant stages backgrounds because Sakurai cannot be satisfied unless every detail in the startfox stage looks just right.
That and all the DLC characters who clearly have ten times as much budget poured to them as any regular character.

Best posts.

Miis

They honestly could have stopped at Brawl and I would have been fine. You got all the esstenial Nintendo characters besides 2 villains, Snake and R.O.B as what the fuck characters, and Sonic who is instrumental to Nintendo’s history.

>hype
>anti-hype
This is the cancer killing Smash. If 64 had been released on today's internet you would have seen endless bitching about half the characters.

fucking Chrom
literally who on this planet gives a fuck about Chrom?

Not counting any clones or echoes, probably Corrin. The only other one that really comes to mind as being so "yeah, okay I guess" is Rosalina, but she didn't cost extra as DLC so that puts her above him by default.

If we count clones/echoes though then either Isabelle or Chrom. Probably Isabelle, because she got a full-on trailer while Chrom was just kinda shoved into the announcement of echoes alongside Dark Samus.

A lot of people actually, especially after he got cucked out of Smash 4.

Incineroar suffered due to Grinch leak shit but was vindicated by his actual gameplay style IMO.

>this is what barafags tell themselves to feel better
no one gives a shit about incineroar

Incineroar, the only newcomer where I was like "....oh".

SMT had nothing to do with the decision. It's not like they went asking for Aleph and ATLUS only offered Joker or ATLUS wanted an SMT character in but Nintendo said they'd only take Joker. If Joker weren't in it doesn't mean an SMT character would be.

People didn't want Incineroar even before the Grinch leak happened.

you're cancer and you should kill yourself

Incineroar had the worst possible timing for his reveal and they really are to blame for fucking it up.
But the character himself was fun, certainly more entertaining than people expected.
The didn't want it but they didn't hate it either. He felt almost mandatory because Pokemon needed a rep for the new gen.

I thought this was going to be Ballot whinging, but you've actually got some really good points, kek. What made the Bayonetta problem worse, however, was just how cowardly a lot of the TOs and backrooms were in their overall total refusal to curb the worst Bayo techniques. Melee and Brawl TOs frequently banned absurd unfair bullshit yet WiiU Bayo was given a total pass, and complaints were always dismissed with snotty "le epic salt xd lern 2 adapt" remarks.

Also I forgot about what a horrid shitshow EVO 2018 was. Because of Bayo, the game couldn't even have a remotely dignified send off for its final year of real relevancy. Christ, MELEE got the plug for the August Direct instead of WiiU.

For me, its a tie between Incineroar and Isabelle.

Daisy was at least an unexpected surprise and Dark Samus has a lot of fans. No one was surprised by Chrom getting in after teasing him in Smash 4.

Some notes:
Sonic would be better if he had a more defnined moveset, Miis would be better if they actually got a visual update that didn't make them ugly as sin, Banjo AND Hero are in the top category and Ike is a shill pick and I don't understand why people pretend anyone would give a shit about him if not for Smash, he's the literal worst selling character in Smash Bros despite having 2 games.

Swap Plant and Joker

raise Piche to great

lower Ken to neutral because not a single soul remembers that he's even in the game

Trash list.

Holy shit this is so bad it can pass as bait, good job.

Within the Pokemon community yes, Incineroar has always been hated and seen as a terrible pokemon.
But from a wider perspective he wasn't hated that much because most people are not invested enough in Pokemon to care.
Most smash players I know wanted the bird instead but only a few hated incineroar.

rosalina's reveal trailer looked like a kirby x mario kart crossover
fuck, rosalina really shattered the hype there

I don't know about the rest of the pkmn community but in /vp/ Incineroar is one of the top 10 alola mons

/vp/ is contrarian and also full of furries.

So just like Yea Forums

Joker

Banjo. That would have been really cool to get him around Melee, but he just feels to irrelevant to me nowadays. I also just went back and played Banjo Kazooie and Tooie last year and realized how poorly they aged.

Post proofs

>plant being very good tier
Plant being in the game was a fucking slap in the face to smashfags. He was a fucking disgrace and his mere presence just drags the quality of the roster down a lot.

Not a single soul on this Earth asked for piranha plant. Only people who like are redditors and people who want to "le BTFO grinchfag xD!".

This. I love Persona, but Joker feels very out of place in Smash to me.

And Snake doesn't?

>Joker not at the fucking bottom

he's a third party but non-iconic and has jack shit to do with nintendo, objectively the worst addition

Attached: animu.jpg (859x1024, 127K)

Only because it's one of the decent Alolan Pokemon since most of them are trash. If it didn't have Intimidate no one would care for it.

>Got 4th place, beaten by Mimikyu, Golisopod and Primarina
>Only 13 votes
This really doesn't say much.

Snake was added in at a time where game companies was to be dark and gritty. It made sense to add him in the game

Now he's just a legacy character

What the fuck? He was added because Kojima directly asked Sakurai to put him in as a favor, that's all. If anything Snake is by definition a worse addition than Joker if we're going off of who """"fits"""" in Smash, but both of them are perfectly good in their own way.

This, so much this. I'm salty about Mario Kart in general because they resorted to porting 8 with a few minor details instead of making a new one. It's one of my favorite series and it looks like we'll go a whole decade without a new installment at this rate.

Flavor of the month JRPG that will easily be forgotten in 4 years when the next Persona is out.
Terrible addition because now Nintendo is forced to keep dragging him around past his expiration date if they want to keep the "everyone is here" going.

Corrin or Isabelle, for me.

People still talk about P3 and 4 even though they're over a decade old, people will do the same with 5, if for no other reason than ATLUS continuing to milk it to keep it relevant.

Corn

You mean like a good chunk of the Pokémon and Fire Emblem reps?
Besides, Everyone Is Here has already been all but confirmed to not happen again.

Why the fuck isn't this a thing yet?
Seriously, they can go a no plot route like Smash and just have everyone play karts together.
Or they can actually try to have a plot that connects them all.
But Kirby characters would easily fit in Mario Kart.
Mario and Donkey Kong are part of the same universe and Kirby could be part of that too if it wasn't for the old trivia fact about their sizes being centimeters.
And Hyrule is described as a realm and it's been connected to Mushroom kingdom before, it wouldn't be impossible to have them coexist.
F-Zero and Metroid could be the same world and Starfox could go either way because it's in space but also cartoonish.
Would it really be that hard to have a game explaining how every Nintendo franchise is somehow in the same universe in different planets or dimensions.

Those two are Nintendo franchises.
They get a pass because their entry into the game wasn't due to recent popularity.
There will always be someone talking about every game now matter how irrelevant it is but in general most people will move on to the next game. The character will no longer be popular or recognizable after a while to the general public.

He wasn't recognizable to the general public even when he was announced, but that's beside the point. He's not going to be forgotten when the next Persona comes out because he will still be about as popular then as he is now, which was never at the point where he was recognizable by the general public, but will be at the point where he can be recognize by someone who's an entry-level JRPG fan, just the same as with P3 and 4 which have maintained their relative popularity for over a decade and continue to do so.

Definitely Snake for me, I had never even heard of Metal Gear before his Brawl reveal.

>No one knew about them, no one cared about them
game was out in Japan for 6 months
>no one wanted them.
this much is true though

>game was out in Japan for 6 months
Less than 500,000 people is close enough to no one.

>Let's add a character which game isn't even on a Nintendo console
Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth

Chrom, roy or lucina.
Dr mario is a close second.
Marth is honorable mention because nobody in the west knew who he was but at least he brought a new move set.
I'd have mentioned mr. G&W for the same reasons as marth but at least his appearance and strange movement brought a wtf factor when first seeing him.

For what i know, Incineroar ranked as the 6th most popular Alolan Pokemon in the last Reddit popularity poll (214th place as a whole). The other Pokemons above him were:
>Mimikyu (the only Alolan Pokemon in top 100)
>Rowlet
>Decidueye
>Golisopod
>Lycanroc (counted all the three forms at once, so each forms would probably rank MUCH lower on their own)

It is clearly a very divisive design, but he's far from being the least favorite Pokemons ever.

Corrin. Any other answer is personal bias. Literally no one cared, especially when the abilities pointed to a Castlevania rep at the time.

The game was incredibly fun, and surprisingly deep. Proper twin stick support would only make it better. Half rail shooter, half character action with a fantastic design? Sounds amazing to me. Even the voice acting was good. The only real issue is that they just didn't make another for no obvious reason. The only one I would accept is to make another Air Ride.

Hoes mad

How the fuck is an actual Nintendo character from a high quality/popular Nintendo series worse than an old nostalgiafag character who sells like crap? You guys are backwards.

From the picture? Probably Palutena. Overall, Isabelle.

Everyone that mained Doc previously, including myself did. Even after they gave Mario some of his moves, it wasn't the same.
I thought that was cool. Waluigifags were the ones trying to shit on Pirhana Plant. Generally, the reception seemed lukewarm to good. Corrin was almost entirely negative or complete ignorance.

It was ANOTHER FE rep, which added nothing to the roster, and the game hadn't even released in the west at that point. Not to mention that FE was under fire for releasing the game in three parts. Fates had a lot of problems. Alucard would have been on par with Sonic's reveal.

They deserved trailers.
Theyre requested enough to do it

Have mario and peach bully luigi and daisy save him for her trailer

Dark samus shows up in a follow up trailer to ridley

Chrom gets back at CF saving robin and lucina

Wouldnt be hard and would help with hype

No it wouldn’t because Alucard doesn’t have 1/10th the fans Sonic does. Its okay to like him but that’s just wrong.

You're not understanding the point I'm trying to make. The crossover reps are always way more interesting and easy to get excited over. Snake's inclusion, for example, came out of left field and was awesome. Mega Man hasn't been relevant for a decade, but his inclusion was hype as shit. Pretending that Simon/Richter getting in, and their trailer wasn't fantastic won't make Corrin suddenly be an awesome addition. People either didn't know or didn't care who the character was. At least people had played Castlevania at that point.

Fates literally wasn't released yet. At least in the west. Piles of Castlevania games exist, and they were a staple series on the early Nintendo consoles. You're just wrong. Corrin sucks. No one asked for them, and we could have gotten some other character from the pile that people have been requesting. It didn't even have to be third party. Just not another FE one that no one even knew.

>Have mario and peach bully luigi
but why tho? wouldn't be more appropriated for Bowser to be the one?

Even though it was a staple series.The sales were shit. People who played those games only make up a very small percentage of people playing smash now. Probably 1% at the most.

I dunno bro, when i saw fucking Sonic in Brawl that honestly blew my fucking mind, imagine advertising a Nintendo game where you can play as Sonic and beat the shit out of Mario, i think that alone deserves excellent, even if you dislike Sonic or whatever. (Even though to be fair, Sonic wasn't in the advertising but you kinda get it right?)

You're gonna have to kinda explain why there are bad additions to a game all about it's diverse omniversal roster you don't have to like them obviously, but i think you might wanna explain.

How do you even judge a criteria like that? How can you really judge who decides to get into a game all about different game characters? I really don't think there has been bad addition to smash, just unpopular ones, if that makes sense.

Then why did they bother to get Simon and Richter. In addition, the response to those two coming in was fantastic. WHILE EVERYONE JUST STARED AT CORRIN IN CONFUSION. Sales don't matter. No one asked for Corrin, but plenty asked for a Castlevania rep.
This.

\>Brought nothing to the roster

Alucard is a literally who, at least Fates ended up being one of the best selling FE games lmao

I don't hate any of the newcomers, aside from Corrin. Fuck Corrin. Not even Fire Emblem fans like Corrin.

After and beside the fact that we're discussing HYPE. No one cared. Jerking off over FE isn't going to change that. Not to mention that SImon/Richter brought their own fantastic and unique moveset to the game.

Duck Hunt Dog and there's absolutely no debate about this. Anyone who says anything to the contrary either forgot he was even in the game or is being a dumb bitch on purpose. Absolutely no character is less exciting than the annoying dog that did nothing but hold up ducks or laugh at you, who the fuck thought this was a compelling idea for a playable character? People talk about relevancy and literal who's but Duck Hunt Dog takes the cake as the least relevant and least important addition the game's ever seen, I wouldn't have even wanted him as an assist trophy, despite him actually making more sense as one.

Chrom, any other answer is just false.
His game is already well represented, he was already in Robin's FS and Lucina was a perfectly acceptable "marth without tipper"

but here we go, some jackass was like "so what if we bring in a 4th version of Marth who uses Aether??? And what if we make it a character from a game that is already represented and not even the latest game in the series anymore?"
Real missed opportunity when they could have set up early hype for 3 houses.... knowing our timeline we are going to get a 3H DLC character anyways so buckle up.

Incineroar, bar none

>Only 5 people
Japan has the hugest boner for Dragon Quest my guy

I did because I mained him in Melee, then I tried playing him for a few weeks after the game's release but he was absolute utter trash so I had to default to regular Mario. Back to maining him in Ultimate because while he's still not great, he's at least playable now.

glad to see Yea Forums still hates people who hate fun.
he represents all of the lightgun games in one character.

>Bowser Jr worse than fucking Rosalina
Get the fuck out of here you retard

Why do Incineroarfags feel the need to dismiss the hate for the character?

The obvious answers is either Corrin or Incineroar. But it's easily Incineroar if you get past the "it's another FE character" bullshit. Corrin as a pretty unique moveset that sets itself apart from the other FE characters. Even his weapon is unique and his dragon abilities make him a worth while addition. Incineroar is just a boring as pick and easily the least interesting of all the Pokemon in Smash.

Tossup between Corrin and Joker. I don't even need to explain the shitshow that is Corrin and Joker is an absolutely retarded addition considering he's not iconic and his most important game is not even on the Switch. What the fuck was Sakurai thinking?

Simon

>all those faggots saying Incineroar
I don't give a fuck about Incin, but anyone with two functioning braincells knew we were getting an obligatory shillmon so while I don't cate about the character himself, at least he has a unique and fun moveset.

Yeah, all those lightgun games. Humor me for a moment, name one other than Duck Hunt and Wild Gunman, then name a good one people still talk about to this fucking day, you magnanimous shitheel, and no cheating, they have to be retro. Now go fuck yourself, I don't hate fun, I hate people like you and the rest of the idiots in this thread who do nothing but whinge about shit like Rosalina or Chrom or whoever the fuck who were all unironically more deserving of a playable slot than the fucking DOG from DUCK HUNT. I could fart out a hundred retro-rep ideas better than Duck Hunt Dog.

Hogan's Alley.

>but anyone with two functioning braincells knew we were getting an obligatory shillmon
And that's part of the issue, you can't get hyped about something you know is coming. It only makes it worse that we he two far better options for Pokemon.

>Most Iconic game isn't on Switch
I don't get this argument, FFVII wasn't on Switch for years when Cloud was announced but I don't see that bitching now. Joker isn't iconic yet but he's the most popular Persona protag.

Wii Fit Trainer had the weakest reveal.
>no huge build up
>not a stealth announcement for a new game

Because Grinch leak, mostly.
Whether or not they want to admit it, more than half of this board actually believed the leak, so getting Incineroar as the absolute last character in the base game after the hype that was Ridley/K.Rool was like a kick in the nuts. There was a lot of shit hurled at him in general already from just the Pokemon side about his design and shilling, so it just kinda boiled over and legit Incineroar fags got hyper-defensive because of the amount of sheer shitflinging he incurred in general. Not all of the hatred went to Incineroar because Plant exists of course, but a lot of it did.

Attached: 1546995194727.png (598x559, 597K)

Yeah but in Cloud's case he's a gaming icon. Same goes for Snake. Joker doesn't have the icon status to justify being in Smash despite his biggest game not being on the system.

What is even the point of such a specific list? That's retarded.

Attached: tomcruisewut.gif (220x162, 373K)

You fucked up, retard, I asked for two in total, also good job going for the third most remembered one you shit-eating casual.

neither does Bayonetta, her game is on Nintendo though. You're just bitching about Joker because you don't like him, Persona is a very big name in JRPGs at the moment and Joker is the current face of that series.

Bayo is not iconic but at least she her games are on Nintendo systems. Joker is neither iconic nor is his biggest game on a Nintendo system.

Pokemon newcomers are always my least hype newcomers.

All that matters is Joker is popular, is a video game, and has a game on a Nintendo system. Cope harder with your imaginary other rules faggot.

joker is more of a gaming icon than fursuit bear or any fire emblem character. cope.

Richter is not iconic, 3rd party, and his biggest game (Symphony of the Night) isn't on a Nintendo system.
>B-but he's an echo
doesn't matter here

Rosalina
Lucina
Palutena
Greninja

>Least hypest newcomer
I could give you an idea of each iteration.
>Pichu, Mr. Game and Watch, and everyone who wasn't in the opening trailer Actual hype hard to tell. Was before the Internet exploded
>Sonic and everyone not revealed standardly (Toon Link, Wolf)
>Miis, Dark Pit
>Incineroar, Chrom, Dark Samus, Daisy

The problem is that Incineroar is failed shillmon so him getting in just feels weird. Especially since Sun and Moon was already dying and people were waiting for the next generation at the time he was revealed.

Greninja and Lucario were shilled but they are among the most popular Pokémon today. Incineroar was not even the most popular Pokémon from it's region and it was not even the most popular starter. Here are some personal picks for who I think would have been a better choice.

>Eevee
>Meowth
>Mimikyu
>Team Rocket
>alola Raichu
>Bewear
>Gengar

Don't forget that people adopted his motiff, in that he's a fucking heel wrestler and he lives for the hate that his fans get to relish.
Doesn't change the fact it's a terrible design philosophy but whatever.

>rules
This is a thread about least hype reveals. I'm simply telling you why Joker is one of those.
Banjo's two most iconic games were on a Nintendo system and while FE bloat is real, it's a first party franchise.
>doesn't matter here
Says you. Richter was simply the icing on the cake that was Simon.

Definitely Isabelle for me.

Palutena and Incineroar, since it's hard to get excited for things that seem like they're an obligation.

Lucina. If anything it should've been Chrom and then not have her in the game at all

Joker's second most iconic game is on a Nintendo system.
>is one of those
in your own opinion. Also quit giving first party free passes.

Glad to know you're literally just giving Richter a free pass solely because you like Castlevania.

I grow up with Banjo but his trailer was anti hype to me since they just reused K. Rool's.

I didn't grow up with mega man but his trailer was very hype.


Only trailer that really made me anti hype in general was Corrin's. It was just bad.

Daisy, Chrom, Miis, Corrin.

>second most iconic game
Ah yes. The 5 people who played Q2 sure are hype about Joker.
>alsp quit giving first party free passes
First parties are way easier to add to the game than third parties, so the later are bigger deals.
>Glad to know you're literally just giving Richter a free pass solely because you like Castlevania.
I'm not even a huge Castlevania fag, but you're retarded if you can't understand why Richter being in as an echo is no big deal.

zoom zoom.

Duck Hunt Dog is iconic to gaming and his character is very fun to play.

>second most iconic
What does this even mean? I'm not going to deny that Persona is a popular series, and Joker is even a solid addition after the initial disinterest. Persona games just aren't on Nintendo consoles. That's just the end of it. Q is a spinoff, and I don't care enough to check to see if the dancing games are. They're a spinoff series as well. He doesn't compare to the reveal of Simon and Richter. You could say it doesn't even register on the Richter scale.

Yeah all 5 people that loved Rondo of Blood more than anything else were hype for Richter, it totally wasn't because of the love for Symphony of the Night.
My point is you're violating your own rules by okaying Richter and not Joker.

You don't know who's easier to add or not, Sakurai has to run things through the Pokemon Company and Game Freak for those characters even if he ultimately gets the final say on which Pokemon. It's literally why we have a new Pokemon every fucking game. The only third parties known to have issues were Snake in 4 due to the internal MGSV drama at the time and Cloud because Square sucks dick.

god cringesona fags are so annoying. shut the fuck up already.

I had never heard of Incineroar before Virgben, and deconfirming the Grinch leak sours him in a lot of people's eyes. I don't hate the character, but in hype I don't think he's on the level of Ridley, Rool, and the Belmonts.

>HEHEH INCIN HEHEH INCIN HEHEH INCIN HEHEH INCIN HEHEH INCIN HEHEH

The money involved means any first party character is easier than any third. They simply don't have to pay out extra royalties to another company. It's not even about development at that point.

Yor. Ugleh.

Is there anyone you keep forgetting is in the game?
ZSS, Rosalina, Palutena, Corrin, and Isabelle for me.

I remember Ganondorf in Melee disappointing me. I was excited to unlock him only to realise that he was just Captain Falcon.

Gatornigger, by fucking far.

Nostaliga faggots should KYS asap. No one gives two shits or knows about some faggot gator from 1935 when your parents weren't divorced.

It's just a wasted slot every time, because they all play identical.

Miis were especially lame because they announced them, spent five minutes explaining them, and then later that night they had a non-streamed Smash conference where they announced PAC-MAN and then did nothing but talk about the Miis. Pac-Man should have been announced during the E3 direct and then the Miis should have been announced at the press conference.

point is a faggot was making arbitrary rules and gets proven wrong, but m-muh echo fighter

because you can totally play Robin the same way you play Ike and Corrin.

Corrin. The answer is, and will always be, Corrin. Why even ask if you already know?

yes, Mewtwo, Roy and Young Link were removed from Brawl, and then Lucas was removed from Smash 4 (but later added back as DLC)

Corrin

Corrin is not an example if nobody plays him.

The DQ Hero demonstrated that we could have just had one FE Hero with different skins the entire time. Sakurai's psychosexual obsession with anime swordsmen is ridiculous.

there are likely 5 people that play Corrin.

You can't just >m-muh an argument to disprove it. An echo fighter being added as a little bonus to complement a third party inewcomer s not the same thing as a totally unique third party newcomer you fucking dunce.

Why doesn't anyone play as Rosalina? She's a very popular character in general, and she received a monstrous number of buffs since launch.

>lower Ken to neutral because not a single soul remembers that he's even in the game
ken was the first character in everybody with an IQ above room temperature's mind when they heard the term "echo fighter"

Richter is still a character that fits all the criteria used to describe Joker, but he still bitches about Joker like he wasn't the next step in that. Since the criteria was already met, why not make a character that still follows the bare two minimum rules?

I feel like the only person who was legitimately excited by Incineroar. I didn't believe Grinch (thought it could be legit, but I refuse to take any form of leak as absolute no matter what) so was neutral and didn't feel like we got him "instead".

I also really enjoyed Gen 7 and Alola as a region was extremely fun for me. I'm happy those games get a representation, and one that is so full of personality. If anything, I'm almost a little sad we didn't get an Alola stage along with him. Altar of the Sunne/Moone with a transition that goes into the Ultra Space Wormhole would be awesome.

Also my second favourite heavy in Smash after Ridley.

I hated gen 7 and always hated his design. He's enjoyable enough to play as, but he always felt like a shameless shillmon.

She's also the most horrendous cancer character to fight in the entire game

He really shouldn't have been the last reveal. Should have swapped him with either K. Rool or Ridley even if he wasn't exactly an E3 caliber reveal.

I voted for it in the ballot.

64: Jigglypuff
Melee: G&W
Brawl: Lucas
4: Corrin
Ult: Incineroar
Joker

The whole "shillmon" thing is a bit of a weird complaint. I totally understand why it bothers people, but at the same time, what do you expect?

Pokemon has 800+ creatures, the ones that are chosen for Smash are obviously going to be only the recognisable ones, and that means either marketing ones (Lucario), starters (Incineroar) or legendaries (Mewtwo). I'd love a fucking crazy pick that isn't any of those too, but it isn't going to happen for obvious reasons.

If anything, I appreciate Pokemon gets such special treatment by basically being their entire own set of Assist Trophies. That's the most logical and best way to have the quirky and unique species like Pyukumuku shine.

I should further elaborate that she had low player numbers in the previous title because why put in the effort to learn Rosalina when you could pick up Shiek, Diddy, ZSS or the two DLC cancer we got? She was at least playable in smash 4. You can't use a good chunk of her tech online in ultimate and it's actually kind of infuriating because she can do some pretty cool shit.

If we're going by an actual character rather then just an echo, probably Incineroar.
Not only was a pretty lame pick in general, it was also a really rude awakening to Grinchfags.

The answer is Corrin. Fucking Corrin. At least literally any other character, even if underwhelming, you could understand not only why they got in, but you got hype over the gameplay potential. Literally no one wanted Corrin in, not even FEfags. The only thing Corrin has going for him/her is unique gameplay and feet.

yikes.

Even without the shitting timing of the Grinch leak, he still shouldn't have been the last reveal.
He's just a Pokemon, one of like 800 or something. He doesn't really even have a character outside of some Pokedex entries.

Corrin and Incineroar. Both failed to garner the audience's interest.

Hell, Ash's Torracat didn't even evolve and the League is 1 episode away, which means a potential Incineroar won't even be featured for more than 10 episodes IF it happens. People don't care about it anyway.

Decidueye would've been worse tho. Mimikyu or a Gen 8 Pokémon was the only right choice.

Whinge harder, faggot.

I still don't get why people say this when not only was she fairly obvious, but she's literally one of the most popular Mario characters by now. I'm just sad that I don't care for the way that she plays at all.

I've wanted Dark Samus in since pre-Brawl. I'm just sad that she's a pure clone.

Can't see it happening, the anime already has an Incineroar.

Damn near all of Smash Four's newcomers. Pac-Man and Greninja were the only ones I liked and Duck Hunt got leaked so the surprise was gone. Shulk I had some respect for given that I did play his game beforehand and Little Mac, I thought was going to be Dixie given how Smash Four was focused on promoting recent titles and relevancy. Nothing against Mac but that was when I knew Smash Four was gonna let me down. Dark Pit was so awful, he didn't even get a title card. The people who did the trailer knew people were going to be mad if they tried to showcase a literal clone. Even Lucina got some spotlight, going back to KI's overrepresentation.

Corrin wasn't just disappointing it actually pissed me off, and then I read that he actually felt it was too much FE and his staff encouraged him to waste time and add it anyway. after a fucking fan ballot where nobody could have voted for her because her game was brand fucking new

I mean 4's newcomers were pretty good CONSIDERING that the only new characters Nintendo had even come up with since Wii or beyond was Olimar, Wii Fit Trainer, and Rosalina. Inkling was barely a twinkle in their eye at that time.

I'm pretty sure they stated at some point that was exactly why WFT was added, because among the hundreds of thousands of suggestions they constantly got for all kinds of weird characters, not one person had ever asked for their wii fit trainer avatar. even "Reckless Safety Guy" was more requested

Honestly if the game was out people probably would have reacted worse because Corrin is fucking awful in Fates

His Up B is so unbelievably fucking terrible, playing him is like a liability

ice climbers
nobody knew who they were or even gave a fuck

Olimar's first game came out a year before Melee, he's GC era. Olimar was also added in Brawl.

that's a cute snek drinkin some water :)

I know I meant that before Rosalina and Wii Fit, and Lucas I guess, Olimar was the last totally original protagonist they'd had success with, i was pointing out that there was a huge gap of time where nintendo did not come up with any new iconic IPs and started to fall back hard on cranking out iterations of existing brands

I always wondered why they didn't do more with Rosalina. She was a massive success and all they did with her was add her to the pool of playables in spinoffs.

Wasn't rondo of blood on the wii's virtual console though? He was still on a nintendo console

Corrin
Just some forgettable literally who shill pick, Easily the least hype newcomer in not just smash 4 but also the entire series

Rondo of Blood was an NES game, his biggest game is Symphony of the Night, which has not been on Nintendo.

They've made her playable a few times and she is a fairly mainstay core cast member now. Especially with her being a playable character in 3D World.

They've done more with her than poor Daisy. Sarasaland as a Kingdom has neither been seen nor referenced in any capacity (beyond being where she's from) since her original singular game, Super Mario Land. Not even a track in Mario Kart based on it, or anything. It's actually really weird.

The ballot that came after his release?

and the game turned out to be a butchered mess anyway

>rondo of blood was an nes game
>rondo of blood, richter's debut game that he's the protagonist of, is not his biggest game
>his biggest game is the one that he's playable in for 3 minutes

Incineroar. He was the final newcomer and a lame conclusion compared to King K. Rool, Ridley, or the Belmonts
Plus he's another fire type

I betchu think Marth's biggest game is some shitty nes japan exclusive

That's kind of my point. She's far enough removed from the rest of the cast. Rosalina was a perfect opportunity to start another spinoff series.

Ridley was actually immensely disappointing, I really wanted pic related and instead they made him all crusty like he was trapped in a statue before he showed up.

Didn't mean to quote tweet.

Saying sotn is richter's biggest game is like saying it's also trevor's biggest game because he's a boss in it

That recolor almost makes this shitty render look decent

Rosalina and wiifit trainer. both these character emphasize an era of Nintendo most nintendo fans would like to forget. I honestly wouldn't be surprised when the next game happens they're on the chopping block for different reasons.

simon, richter, mega man, snake

>They were doing fine till incineroar
>implying jobberfrog wasn't a shillmon
>implying Lucario wasn't a shillmon
Lucario actually has the benefit of the doubt though since its debut was long before the game even (supposedly) started development under Sakurai.

Attached: 1444146633300s.jpg (125x124, 3K)

Yeah, even Chrom was somewhat exciting due to the trailer where Lucina steals his thunder. Corrin has all the shameless advertisement of a shillmon while just being yet another swordsman who brings nothing interesting to the table.

wait I read OP wrong, Im retarded

mario

The Plant no one cared about after release.

I still love my planty boy

Bayonetta saying she was the ballot wineer when she was not.

It fills a nice niche in that we still get weird, novel, and unexpected Nintendo characters. Helps the people who cry about sword users cope a little bit.

Hoes mad.

Mario, everyone expected him.

They should just cut Mario next game to make room for Bandana Dee.

Corrin and Plant are the only bad ones

>muh hype
Worse than roster speculating niggers and tourney stinkies. Maybe you should all join your lord and savior Etika.

Oh hello Corrin main.

It's been 7 years since Uprising came out and there's not even any rumors of one even being considered. Hell, you don't even see it on fake leaks.

Uprising is only around the 30th best selling 3ds game as well, the preferential treatment made no goddamn sense.

They couldn't just admit the ballot was primarily for the next game that they already had Sakurai bound in chains to make immediately after 4's last update rolled out.

Rosalina by far

isabelle as a character is fine but good lord her trailer was painfully boring

It seriously baffles me that the one time Game Freak came up with a naturally appealing Pokémon like Mimikyu that they shilled it for about a month and then gave up. That thing had fucking everything going for it and they just tossed it aside.

Miis.

Everyone knew they were coming, they're boring as shit, and no one likes playing as them.

Brawl had the best reveals, followed by Ultimate.

Smash 4 had the worst fucking reveals by far.

Incineroar, Plant, every FE character, Wii Fit Trainer...

Mine is a tie between WFT and Corrin

Where the fuck are all the FE mains coming from? I see them all the time online but I don't know anybody who actually likes them.

Well, FE characters are pretty easy to pick up top tiers from my experience.
People who generally don't give a fuck about Nintendo characters, or are obsessed about tiers, tend to play them.
That doesn't change the fact that most of them share almost the same playstyle, and them all looking the same doesn't make it better.

The loud whining minority is not representative of the whole.

I liked Roy in Melee and the fact that he's actually decent this time around makes me want to play him a lot.

I'm fine with Roy and Marth but like jesus Lucina is basically Marth 2.0 and Chrom is like Ike 2.1. It's starting to get a little ridiculous, not to mention they share the same hair cuts

Either Corrin or Incineroar.

I lean more towards Corrin because atleast the big kitty ended up being fun to play.

If going by trailers at least

>see Animal Crossing with Isabelle in hd
>notice "Not Actual Gameplay Footage"
>ahhhhh geez, here we go
>uhuh
>okay
>please move it along
>any day now, we already know what this is
>"They want me in Smash!?"
>ISABELLE TURNS OVER A NEW LEAF
>alright then

Just be grateful it wasn't another Fire Emblem character.

any of the pokemon

Quajutsu and Funegro.

corrin and incineroar

Everyone groaned when Chrom came on screen but, as this thread has correctly settled on, Corrin is the worst.
I never liked incineroar or the rest of its line but it really should've come with a stage, as much of a hallway as Alola was it was a gorgeous region. I also feel like K. Rool needed a stage but what can you do.

Honestly, Isabelle. Some figurative who animal crossing character with a moveset too close to Villagers' to be worth anything.
If it's after the game came out, then Pac-Man. He has no Pac Man World moves and I am STILL mad about this.

t. faggot who says those don't count!

Fuffi

>that sinking AND annoyed feeling when it keeps dragging on
It took about as long for Isabelle to get to her splash screen as it did for Simon to get his, but Isabelle's trailer was so tedious and obvious that it just seemed like it was far longer.

All I wanted was for him to have his Pac-Man World 2 voice.

I think Chrom gets a bit of leniency from some people for being a low effort clone that didn't cost extra. Corrin was watered down branding that Nintendo and IS expected people to pay extra for.

People forget that Palutena got into Nintendo's E3 with a boring announcement when literally later that day they announced fucking PAC-MAN behind closed doors for reporters. They went and made an original animated teaser for a relatively useless side character from one of the lesser Nintendo franchises but then we found out about Pac-man through a goddamn tweet. Incineroar was stuck in a bad Nintendo Direct, which didn't help it either. Corrin was announced along side Bayonetta so it didn't really matter.

snake

He’s talking about Smash 4 Doc

It's this, objectively.

>her Direct caused an earthquake that killed people in Japan and delayed the Direct
>Isabelle immediately put a jarring stop to the unreal and almost universal excitement behind Ultimate generated by E3 and the August Smash Direct
>she was clearly a clone that got retooled last minute to be unique, resulting in her being an unbalanced and incredibly buggy piece of shit at launch
>the next, final Direct was an unmitigated atrocity of bad news and disappointment
>her being in Smash has resulted in an explosion of art of her being an obnoxious LE EPIC SMUG ASSHOLE XD
She's been nothing but trouble by getting into Smash.

>>her being in Smash has resulted in an explosion of art of her being an obnoxious LE EPIC SMUG ASSHOLE XD
Almost all, if not all characters who get into Smash get this. Why single one out for it?

She was NEVER a Villager echo. Her proportions were too different, as stated by Sakurai himself.
Also, she was buggy because they didn't properly test the interactions with other objects, not her moveset itself. I mean how do you account for two Isabelle fighting each other, one picks up the assist trophy with fishing rod, then the other ALSO tries to take it with the rod at a specific point in the animation.

>Rosalina was a perfect opportunity to start another spinoff series.
I hope she gets one eventually and I hope she's playable in another 3D Mario game. I fucking love Rosalina.

Ridley in Smash is probably my favorite design that he's ever had. He looks so fucking cool.

Why are people still angry about characters being in despite the circlejerked characters getting in?

Reading comprehension. I didn't say they weren't shillmon, but they were successful unlike incineroar. Incineroar was immediately disliked once it came to light that torracat became bipedal

I think chrome is super boring so that would be mine
