So basically, Cloud is a popular character who came from an iconic, long-running series that's been on Nintendo systems. You know who else fits those requirements? Scorpion! Mortal Kombat is very iconic and has been on Nintendo systems. All Sakurai would need to do is tone down the violence like with Snake and Scorpion would be a no-brainer!
that would be cool I guess
Would his Spear be a B move or his grab?
>>316506143
Probably Side or Up B.
scorpion would be rad, he fills in all the third party guest criteria Cloud went through. only thing that needs to be strip down is the gore of his fatality attacks.
also, gokufags needs to fuck off somewhere else and kroolfags at smashboards need to stop being entitled shits like SKfags with all the claiming non-vidya/other guest icons but with zero Nintendo appearances have a chance now.
That would be cool. Plus it would give another "evil" character to play with.
>>316508543
hoping next month would show off wolf and sakurai announcing the pending ballot characters will be available for the NX port
also fuck the "winner" shit, Nintendo never said nor implied the ballot was a voting competition or some shit like that.
>>316507865
>only thing that needs to be strip down is the gore of his fatality attacks
Basically. The funny thing is his iconic fatality, Toasty, is just a fire breath attack and could easily be incorporated into the game, minus the flesh melting part.
Japan doesnt give a fuck about Scorpion or any other MK character though.
I'm certainly not against it. He's just as much of a Nintendo character as Ryu is.
>>316509604
The MK fanbase is huge and the series has sold more than Street Fighter. Also the West provides far more money to Nintendo than Japan does.
Is it ever going to happen? No, but they're stupid for not doing it.
>yfw he uses a sword
>>316509828
Arguably more, since more MK games have come out on Nintendo systems, as well as exclusive editions and even characters for them.
>>316509604
Are you okay?
>>316509604
They don't give a fuck about Little Mac either...
>>316510091
>yfw they give him back his axe from UMK3
>>316509930
Sales =/= quality.
Competitively MK is a joke in FGC. Most people get MK for single player content anyway. They want to feel like they're good at the game by beating predictable AIs. They get the illusion of being powerful.
Also don't forget that the Japanese are conservative as fuck.
"Oh, the westerners happen to like our games that we made for our people and pay money for them? That's great, but they're still gaijin so we won't cater to them." is their stance.
>>316510652
Well for starters no one said anything about the FGC or other irrelevant shit like that. Secondly sales are what companies care about, hence the 3rd party additions being well known characters, of which Scorpion fits right in.
About Japan, I already mentioned they're retarded.
>>316510389
Punch-Out was designed by Genyo Takeda
Sakurai enjoyed the arcade version of Punch-Out than the west popular NES version.
>>316511008
>fighting games
>FGC is irrelevant!
u wot m8
Also I know you already acknowledged this, but Japan will never accept western characters in their games. Not sure how there seem to be so many people who keep believing that Shovel Knight will make it in.
Not Japanese, no hope to be in Smash.
>>316511563
But Little Mac and Diddy Kong are western characters!
>>316511630
just diddy
Little Mac is also jap thanks to Genyo Takeda handling Punch-Out
>>316505802
https://youtu.be/8Liw0YMU8UM?t=42
>>316511563
Diddy Kong is a Western character.
If you already acknowledge my posts, then what reason are you repeating what I said? I know he's not getting in. The point of the thread was just to have fun and think about how cool it would be, then someone has to show up and ruin the fun for no good reason.
>>316506613
>>316506143
Up-b could work great. It could be aimed with a quick input. Hitting a wall/ledge would pull you to it, but hitting an enemy would pull him to you.
>>316511856
>Sm4sh inclusions became nearly BrawlVault-tier thanks to Cloud
>>316509339
He could use his Friendship, or a Babality.
>>316505802
Maybe his hand spear could be a plunger instead. Sucking people in.
>even if Scorpion was added, this wouldn't be in the game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBrwIMYV3-A
That'd actually be pretty awesome. His alt costumes could be the other mk ninjas (blue, green, red, black) neutral b: he could pull of his mask and do a fire attack like bowser, side b could be his spear attack, down b could be his hell fire attack, up b could be just like zelda up b teleport just make it look a little more "hellish". Can't really think of am age appropriate final smash
>>316512190
There's nothing violent enough about the spear attack to warrant censorship.
>All Sakurai would need to do is tone down the violence like with Snake
I'm gonna ignore how dumb an idea that is and just say that if they went this route and didn't have him "sweating" profusely after any given attack it'd be a waste of time.
>american series in a japanese video game
won't happen
>>316512396
Or his down b could be a teleportation attack like meta knights
>>316512512
it's just the no guns rules ESRB has with Smash
remember Bond? that's one of the reasons why Sakurai didn't add him in Melee's final roster.
>>316512528
>Limits are meant to be broken
Anything can happen now.

>>316514141
Well of course. He's not a video game character.
>>316505802
I'd rather have pic related since he got left out of mkx
>Compactor as a meta-knight like final smash
>>316512528
>>316511563
>Japan will never accept western characters in their games

There's a reason she's Nintendo exclusive, you know?
Forget Mortal Kombat, this is the perfect chance to add Jill to Smash!
>>316515116
Literally who?
>>316515116
>posting the wrong Jill
>>316512012
smash is the no western piggus club
>>316505802
It would be funny watching Scorpion interact with all these colorful kid friendly characters, and would literally be the first time I think him and Ryu would be in the same game
>>316512528
The best character in the game for a good while was made by a Brit.
>>316515208
Surley you jest
you guys are thinking about it wrong. Fighting games has a rep and it's Ryu. You need to think of other genres
>>316505802
Does a cameo appearance in Kingdom Hearts really count as "appearing on a nintendo system"?
>mfw Scorpion and Master Chief are the next two DLC characters
>>316516273
don't forget teathrythm
and soon FF Explorers
>>316516327
get an Nintendo appearance first, Chief, then we'll talk
>>316516590
>>316511630
Diddy was made by Rare for Donkey Kong. He may be their OC, but he's an OC in a series based off of contract work for the Japanese. Did MK even get a Japanese release? I know that DKC did, though.
>>316516761
too bad pre-Destiny Bungie dropped the pitch and was never meant to be.
with Minecraft coming to WiiU, Microsoft needs to open up a bit more for Halo on Nintendo consoles.Xenoblade X Metroid X Halo when?
>>316510652
>Competitively MK is a joke in FGC
So is Smash
>>316516761
>7th gen could've been the golden age of arena shooters on the NDS
>>316514793
That game was specifically made with Americans in mind. Smash is mostly for the Japanese.
>>316516327
Let's be real: the reaction over Master Chief in Smash Bros would be something that likely couldn't be topped for years. Every gaming site, forum, fuck, even Facebook and Twitter would lose it.
Worth it for that alone.
>>316514968
And what reason is that?
>>316517395
Metroid Prime Hunters was basically Quake 3 on a handheld.
>>316513414
a-anything?
>>316517395
>golden age
>shooter on tiny as screen and shit CPU
what?
>>316517695
What would Master Chief's stage be?
>>316516590
Still waiting on my Metroid x Halo game
>>316517695
that would pretty much be the end of the world.
like, what the fuck man, that would make reality collapse and shit.
>>316511563
>Japan will never accept western characters in their games
Pretty racist tbph. We gotta put with their shitty bug eyed anime girls for decades and they can't even handle one of our cool characters?
>>316518498
>Doomguy will never be in Smash
>>316518593
>Douk will never be in Smash
>>316516590
does this count?
>>316517942
Blood Gulch.
This is weird because he's iconicly a violent character. But if so, his second most iconic move that isn't spear is a teleport, which could work as a parry, but it is not a parry. Is there any characters that are like this?
Cloud was a dumb addition. People mock him for being a whiny emo. They should've added Sephiroth. Everyone loves him and he's way more famous than Cloud. Kids love how "badass" he looks. When FF7 came out even my mom had a screenshot of him as the wallpaper on her PC.
>>316508543
Scorps isn't evil he's a good guy m8.
>>316519147
>good guy
Only recently but otherwise he was always neutral.
>>316519261
This is also true.
>>316519147
>season 2 never
>>316519346
I've been buying the bulk volumes that puts all the comics into 3 volumes, waiting for volume 3 which would wrap up this series right?
Is this shit even canon? So many inconsistencies.
>>316519147
>you are a survivor, takeda. like me
>scorpion surviving anything
>>316517576
>Smash is mostly for the Japanese
>>316511856
this character is broken as fuck though.
>>316511856
>his flame kick as a charge move
>his sword overhead as a charge move
>his hellfire as a charged move
it's fucking genious
fireballs though? rather use the new mkx demons.
>>316519661
that's how most Brawl moveset hacks are like at first unless the modder plans to do balancing changes afterwards
this is just proof of concept
>>316517942
Arguably it's most iconic level, multiplayer included
>>316518131
I really miss all of the MC vs Samus stuff. Such a fun time period for games.
>>316520881
One day it will come back.
Maybe Halo 6 and the new Metroid will be released around the same time
>>316506613
>>316512081
up b would be a nether portal or something, using spear as a recovery would be retarded.
>iconic, long-running series that's been on Nintendo systems
>Mortal Kombat
Stop.
Maybe when it was owned by Midway but NetherRealm doesn't like Nintendo.
>>316521281
>owned by Midway but NetherRealm doesn't like Nintendo.
Literally the same developers renamed.
Maybe you mean Midway and WB?
FFVII wasn't on Nintendo.
>>316517695
Yeah people would be outraged, MC doesn't fit at all and his moveset would literally be gun
>>316521496
NetherRealm doesn't like Nintendo, Square-Enix has a tsundere relationship.
Would you rather Scorpion or...
>>316522107
Scorpion.
>>316519147
That comic was better than the game, story-wise.
>>316510652
>Competitively MK is a joke in FGC
You're pretty retarded m88. MK has gained a lot of respect since MK9 came out.
>>316518987
Teleport also doesn't seem like it would work, since he goes offscreen in a way that would look like he was sd'ing in smash.
>>316519147
But he's also a fag
>>316522421
I want many scorpions
>>316523096
Teleport doesn't have to go off screen, he could just vanish as he shoots off in one direct and reappear on the opponent's other side.
Who cares about this shit
What I want to know is if Famitsu's mascot can get into Mario Maker, when will Nintendo Power's?
>>316505802
This very thought came to mind right after i saw the trailer for cloud
>>316519445
NRS has called the comic canon. The comic writer was given a loose guideline by the game writer, but no other communication happened. An example of this is Mileena's original face during early chapters and then getting into MKX mode after her game reveal.
>>316523463
He got his own game back on Virtual Boy.
>>316505802
Well Ed Boon wants him in the very least
>>316522421
Are you seriously telling me you don't want to see Cloud vs Nightmare on Final Destination?
Toasty could be his final smash, have the skull be a bit more cartoony and have the MK announcer say SMASHALITY or some shit when it's done.
Alternatively, they could use Sub-Zero or Raiden if skullhead & spear Scorps is too much for them.Mileena never ever
>>316523938
I don't like Cloud/FF and I never bothered with SC, so no.I'll take Stun the Insect, though.
>>316524057
But you still gotta admit, it'd be cool as fuck.
>>316505802
MK is shit to the Japanese
It's labeled "Kuroge" or something
Only small fans on Pixiv give a fuck about it.
Whenever there is a Mortal Kombat Japanese video it has a crap ton of dislikes and the people on the comments spamming W which is the Nippon version of LOL
You could have literally all the other ninjas plus Raiden as alt costumes
I just want more news about Kombat Pack 2
>>316524631
Didn't they say like Spring 2016? Or was it all just a wonderful dream?
>>316524886
That's the expected timeframe to start chugging characters out, but nothing else has ever been said after the 'announcement trailer' a few weeks ago.
But will it have better online than MKX?

>>316505802
Because MK is shit and the only reason it sells well is because of the edginess.
So I tried playing Smash 4 today after not playing for almost a year. My brother has all the DLC characters,s o I used his Wii U.
The fuck is with this game? It's less fun than I remember it being before I dropped it for being fun, and Ryu is the most awkward shit I've ever played (and I've played Brawl mod packs with like 80 community characters in them). The only thing that I liked about it was the pretty graphics.
How the hell can people play this competitively?
>>316524475
This is very true.
>>316526849
I still think it might look silly if he doesn't get all the way offscreen for his telly. For all we know he doesn't actually tellyport anyway, he goes offscreen, quickly runs around the camera, and comes back onscreen from the other side
>>316528663
