Why would they add a character that literally nobody has ever heard of?
Because he needs to sell 3 different versions of the same game
So he gets popular
To advertise his game

Yeah, why the fuck would they add Roy to Super Smash brothers Melee.

>>320296197
>>320296267
Now i know what i'm not buying.
marketingI'm still pissed since if they wanted to market something they should've gone with Xenoblade Chronicles X and add Elma or something, dual blades and twin machine guns
>>320295989
Why would they add a character that literally nobody has ever heard of?
>>320296315
There weren't 5 Fire Emblem characters in the game when they added Roy
This series is shit and sells like shit, and yet it has more representation than Mario and Zelda and almost as much as Pokemon
>>320295989
>who is shulk
>>320297257
The protagonist of a critically acclaimed JRPG that was released worldwide at the time of his inclusion
>>320296716
I would've loved that
>>320297036
Corrin isn't our boy, though
>>320297036
Ness was a literally who as well
hell, most didn't recognize Captain Falcon, too
>doesnt wear shoes
>has a female version
I know where this porn is heading
>>320296161
>3 different versions of the same game
They are 3 different games.
>>320297856
You and nintendo missed one.
>>320297245
They need Fates to sell, especially since it's split into three parts.
>>320295989
Fire Emblem exists in the west because of smash. Get used to it Smash is now Mario+Pokemon+FireEmblem.
>>320297245
>This series is shit and sells like shit
Maybe if you stopped talking out of your ass and imagining non existent data you would understand better.
how to Make Smash Great Again:
>make a Fire Emblem themed fighting game with all the shitty weeb swordsmen you want
>keep Marth and Ike in smash but kick out the other fucks
>>320296697
You maybe, but look at Marth and Roy in melee. They single handedly made Fire Emblem popular.
>>320298516
>Marth and Ike
It should have ended there but they couldn't miss the advertisement opportunity
>>320298838
It's a different situation. When they were added, Fire Emblem was a brand new series to the west.
This is just advertising a new game. And Smash fans already know what Fire Emblem is. A lot of them are sick of it and its overexposure. Especially when you make a character vote and are basically saying "Corin got in instead of the character you really really wanted".

Roy was a character from a game the wasn't even out in japan let alone the west and didn't come out in the west until much later.
Falcon was from 2 F-zero games prior to the release of the first smash and If you didn't play earthbound as a kid then you missed the fuck out.
>>320299306
I just wanted a character to use a axe or spear. The best I got was some Power ranger faggot whose arm turns into a needle.
>>320297036
WHY CAN'T EVERYONE ON THIS FUCKING BOARD JUST REALIZE THAT ROY FUCKING DID IT FIRST AND HE ENDED UP BEING A FUN UNIQUE CHARACTER
>>320300591
>HE ENDED UP BEING A FUN UNIQUE CHARACTER
He ended up being a clone with a instant kill attack.
Not interesting.
He's to plug the new Fire Emblem. It's nothing new for smash even if it IS disappointing.
If they hadn't overrepped Fire Emblem way too much already, people wouldn't mind as much.
>>320301791
I would be far less pissed off if the fire emblem character wasn't a fucking sword character again.
There are so many fucking weapons to use in fire emblem why stick to a fucking sword.
>>320299306
Fire Emblem wasn't even considered for the west until after they were in smash
>>320302264
No Fire Emblem wasn't localized due to smash, it was localized due to how popular Advance Wars got.
