>Sakurai felt that the game was featuring too many Fire Emblem characters, but the development team assured him that Corrin would make for an interesting competitor.
Thoughts /v/?

The developers are fucking Weeabos
how fucking dumb do you have to be to wonder why Baynonetta got in? its a Nintendo exclusive
>>321235721
Makes sense to me. Corrin does look interesting. Looking forward to trying him.
>>321235721
>6 Fire Emblem characters
>5 Zelda characters
>2 Donkey Kong characters
>Only 1 newcomer is a 1st party character and they're from a game that isn't even out in the west yet
It's Sakurai making excuses again. There's no reason to pull this shit besides muh marketing.
>>321235810
You have no idea what that word means
>>321235721
Corrin is literally an ad.
>>321236602
this guy
I remember hearing that Sakurai said on twitter or some shit that putting corrin in the game was "treating himself"
Will FFVII actually be released on Wii U after this? I can imagine Sony being pretty fucking pissed off right now.

Really? My uncle who works with Sakurai said that Sakurai said that everybody can just "fuck off."
When the other other developers tried to pull him away from his workstation, he started swinging at them.

Corrin is an ad, end of story.
The only difference between them and Roy is that Roy was a low-effort clone and that Roy's game wasn't out yet.
>>321235721
Corrin got in the same reasons roy did on a lesser scale.
That said, I think Corrin gets more shit than he really should due to how many FE reps there are.
Take out Roy and make Lucina into an alternate costume for Marth, and you'd have 4 FE reps that all play differently from each other.

>Sakurai pushing blame to the devs
LOL
>>321235721
>8-player Smash
I think all of us know the real reason why Corrin got in.
>>321235721
Well, I had the same thoughts, then I saw the gameplay and it looked fun.
Well looks like no Travis Touchdown.
A real shame considering he probably would have worked well with it.

>Weeabos
>90% of gamers have never played a fire emblem game
>get's more characters than donkey kong, something everyone has played
>>321243586
>Thinking dyke ape and old man ape are unique.
I dislike fire emblem, but DK is fucking dead.
>>321243586
I honestly hope the new Fire Emblem flops. Oh wait, it's a Fire Emblem game. Of course it will.
>>321240056
never thought of that. he'd be really cool to play as.
or Con Smith from K7, I feel like he'd be kind of neat
this is literally pushing blame onto others
>trash fags WILL defend this
>>321243880
Tropical Freeze sold worse than Awakening, and slower than Fates.
>>321244509
Except he's not pushing any blame.
>>321235721
I don't care if Bayonetta was the only character Nintendo could negociate, I want at least the top 50 of the most voted characters per country.
>>321244879
Tropical Freeze was also on pre-Mario Kart 8 Wii U. DKCR sold like 8 million copies and that's not counting the 3DS port.
