So why did Sakurai think this character's inclusion in Smash was a good idea again?
for laughs
>>318187616
Cause he's a good character you aspie.
>>318187616
>2015
>Rosterfags still exist
>>318187616
Better visibility for his shit game.
>>318187616
It's been a year and people are still salty over Dark Pit. Jesus. Get over it. At least he isn't as bad as the shitstain that is Pichu.
>>318187616
I honestly find it infuriating because he doesnt even fucking use the staff weapon he's holding in his render. He could've had a different set of moves that utilized the Gunsword or Beam swords, claws or SOMETHING from Uprising.

>I honestly find it infuriating because he doesnt even fucking use the staff weapon he's holding in his render.
He does, for his Final Smash.
>>318189603
.....w-well never mind.
He wanted to make the roster appear bigger, so he took a character a fair (but not massive) amount of people asked for that was literally a copy of another character on the roster and gave them their own slot.
[s]Also, he's a troll.[/s]
Dark Pit is cute! Cute!
It was a cheap way to expand the roster.
>something something food analogy
why make a dumb thread when you already know the answer
why is it so hard to make normal threads without shitty bait
>>318187616
Because he made that character and basicly made palutina.
That's why he included them.
>>318191073
Ah yes, good to see others using Blacksuke.
>>318187616
>b-but it took no effort
Still a shit decision. Should have been an alt like Alph or Koopalings. Don't want to have to play as him in Classic or waste more time in All Star just to 100% the game.
>>318187616
I think he was a last minute addition. Like Ganondorf in Melee.
Because it's a slightly different character to fill in an extra character space, thus hyper cheap and easy to do.
Same reason Dr. Mario came back (other than people who wanted FLUDDless mario), Lucina exists, and most of the DLC so far shares moves with existing characters (Lucas, Roy, Mewtwo, Cloud)
>>318192479
Dr. Mario has more changes than dark pit and lucinca. Roy is just as different as Dr. Mario and Lucas is unique aside from his b move properties . cloud and mewtwo are entirely unique
>>318187616
He's popular in Japan
>>318192783
>Dr. Mario has more changes than dark pit and lucinca
Doesn't he play pretty much exactly like he does in Melee?
>>318192783
>share moves
not
>have all of the exact moves
Reading comprehension.
Dr. Mario has different attributes but does all of the same things except for FLUDD.
Roy has different attributes but does all of the same things except for Shield-breaker.
Lucas has different attributes but does all of the same things except for PK Freeze and A-Moves.
Mewtwo shares A LOT with Lucario, since Lucario was largely based on Mewtwo to begin with.
Cloud shares A LOT with Ike. I'm a huge FFVII / Final Fantasy / Square-Enix fan, but I'm confident in the fact that they're similar because it's easy.
All of these characters have their own unique features, including Lucina and Dark Pit, but they were made extraordinarily similar because of how cost-effective it was to do. Why do you think so many characters share the same kinds of combos?
Hey it was nothing personnel
>>318191578
Alph shouldn't have even been an alt. Having him being a clone with Rock Pikmin would have been awesome. Koopalings shouldn't be in the game, Bowser Jr should just have color alts.
It's a free dessert (he wanted the roster to appear larger with no effort). He chose Dark Pit because him using Pit's Final Smash would be strange (actually it's just because he's biased towards his own creation and it was down to either him or Alph).
Really his inclusion makes some things shittier like trying to get complete stuff with every character but at least it took no development time. Honestly I think Palutena is a bigger show of bias since she's a full fledged character.
>>318193176
>Koopalings shouldn't be in the game, Bowser Jr should just have color alts.
Why?
>>318187616
He was already done, he would have been in anyway. All they had to do is say "Hey, let's act like this costume is its own character."
>>318193336
It makes Bowser Jr feel less important in his own character slot. It also doesn't make sense for the Koopalings, they never have used the Jr Clown Car before and just feel forcefully stapled on. They've also never wielded the paint brush before so having them turn into Shadow Mario makes no sense. They also look like shit, gangly Lemmy being the worst. It would have also been nice to have matching colors for Jr and his father.
Reminder.
>>318187616
I know, right! He should have given that slot to Ridley instead.
>>318189469
>shit game
Did you play it?
He's a filler character. Ignore Sakurai going "DESSERT", that's just PR talk covering for development problems.
>>318193081
>Cloud shares A LOT with Ike
Like what? All I saw was a similar (though different) down air and second half of his up b (which is optional)
>>318194653
>>318193081
Speaking of, what do Mewtwo and Lucario share other than the neutral B?
Even back as a dumb kid playing Melee when it first came out, I could tell this guy being his own character was retarded.
>>318194653
I think he shares more with Shulk.
>Falco will never have the original reflector again
It hurts.
>>318194139
Well, they have used the normal clown car before, so it's not so out of place.
>>318194305
>June 2014
oH FUCK
>>318194139
>>318196652
forgot pic.
>>318187616
Because he was cheap and easy.
Because he wants to promote his game. If it wasnt obvious from the inclusion of Dork Pit then Pale Tuna's advice should have been a dead giveaway.
>>318187616
To spite you specifically, OP.
