I am not-a so happy.
Well, with the roster as a whole, I'm generally happy: Mega Man, Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Palutena and Little Mac are great--heck, pretty much all the revealed newcomers so far have generally been very good. But it feels like Sakurai was leaving some of the worst decisions for last.
There are six things that bother me about the current roster! (this is assuming there's no DLC)
6. Dark Pit. As much as I like Kid Icarus: Uprising (and this character), this seems like kind of a weak choice for a newcomer. Clones are easier to develop for, but he looks EXACTLY like Pit with a different color; seems confusing and pretty unnecessary.
5. A Lucas cut? He was my main in Brawl! Granted, I kind of expected this, but it still stings...
4. Dr. Mario. Just...why? When you compare this guy to the other clones, he looks extremely superfluous. Unlike Falco, Toon Link, and even Dark Pit, Dr. Mario is not a separate character--he's just Mario in a doctor suit! And no, I don't think returning his Down-B warrants a separate slot at all. It may sound extreme, but the Doc's addition just cheapens the roster. Reminds me of Melee and its dubious choices for playable characters. He should be an alt. And I understand that clones are easier to design, but it's even sillier when you consider that other clones like Lucas and Wolf were passed up in favor of this fellow.
3. Cutting the Ice Climbers?? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...!
2. Ganondorf being a Captain Falcon clone for the third game in a row is beyond ridiculous at this point. There's really no excuse, especially considering characters like Mario, Bowser, Pit, and Falco have gotten revamped/tweaked movesets over the years. He's Nintendo's second-biggest villain and the main baddie in their most critically-acclaimed series. This is ridiculous! Give him a trident and his magic tennis balls already!
1. No Ridley!?! STILL!? Metroid has less reps than Fire Emblem and Kid Icarus?
On the plus side, Shulk's addition is cool, Duck Hunt is one of the best newcomers of all, and I'm even pleased with the way Sakurai is handling Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings. But those six things are stuck in my craw something fierce. Three can be fixed with DLC though... |
