She was a Mystery Costume in Mario Maker 1. And it's not like there have been many mainline Mario platformers after 3d World. It's just Odyssey, re-releases and Mario Maker 2.

I don't really count Mystery Costumes, personally.
Otherwise we'd have to say that Waluigi actually has been in a mainline platformer lol
Toon Link retains his relevance by being the best Link
Look at this boy
Look at him
Shame, he's the worst Link in Smash by a big margin.
I know this, but I was pointing out how dumb the argument against Smash 4's newcomers was. If Robin and Lucina get counted as aging poorly despite being incredibly popular FE characters in their own right from one of the most definitive titles in the franchise, then Ike is subject to the same inane idea that this poster was floating about franchises in Smash.
That probably didn't come off completely as I intended in my post though. It was just a fun point of comparison about how characters have lost or gained "relevance" since their inclusion in Smash and that's just always going to be the case for characters because franchises and games generally aren't that static.
just flood the game with half-clones idgaf if Titania is half-frederick i just want her in ;~;
Ya'll got a remake in the pipe and Garrod's master plan for Sigurd in Smash is underway
The world is ready for HD Titania
YOU GET IT, YOU UNDERSTAND
It was a pretty big deal to be the first HD Fire Emblem and the first to appear on a console since Radiant Dawn
Marth is the mascot of the series; Roy is a Melee character (a Smash character before a FE character for real lol), Ike is popular and is the protag of the most expensive GameCube games these days (or is it the Wii sequel? I get them mixed up a lot); Robin, Chrom and Lucina are part of the game that saved the franchise..
Corrin and Byleth are ... FE lords, I guess.

They will be in the spiritual successor where it's just SMT and FE characters as idols
Gonna be a rad and Barry-less world
Ike is only as popular as he is because of Smash. Path of Radiance sold five copies and Radiant Dawn sold four.
The only characters I'd say feel out of place in the context of Smash itself are Sheik and Corrin.
Beyond that, while Smash 4's newcomers really didn't entice me, I can't say relevance or any such thing was what worked against it. I think I just generally did not care for that era of Nintendo IPs that hadn't yet gone represented.

...which is exactly what I said? Three Houses was the first HD Fire Emblem
I do think it's a little soon to be talking about Corrin's legacy - they're like Ike or Roy where there really hasn't been much opportunity to let nostalgia kick in yet. I assume Fates mixed reception is going to mean that, ultimately, they're going to be one of the "also ran" lords. But at the same time, they do still get merchandise, they are in Warriors and Heroes, so who knows.
Byleth is in the same boat, just that Three Houses already has a much bigger impact and a much bigger fanbase than Fates. We'll see how much of an impact they have a few years from now.
I think every game has its own "flavor of the month" characters, though.
64: Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff, Ness
Melee: Sheik, Young Link, Pichu, Roy
Brawl: Lucas, Ike
Smash 4: Corrin, Palutena, Dark Pit, Bayonetta, Miis
Ultimate: Incineroar, Joker, Byleth(?)
Smash 4 is probably on the heavy end of the spectrum, and it's sandwiched between Brawl and Ultimate, which both prioritized "fan favorite" types over all else.
If we're talking fully unique characters, I think Sheik, Palutena, and Corrin are the most "wait, why?" characters in Smash at this point. Sheik and Palutena in particular are supporting characters, Sheik having never reappeared and Palutena only REALLY appearing in one game in a fleshed out role. But they're also some of the only female characters in the game, so I can't complain about squeezing either of them in.

I strongly disagree with Miis being "flavor of the month"
They're one of the most important Nintendo characters in the company's history, defining an entire era of gaming

I misread what you said as "the first HD Fire Emblem on console since Radiant Dawn."
My actual wish for FEW is that they'd use the Tier system from Gundam Musou by having characters ranked from 1 to 3
where 1 is a fully unique full moveset, 2 is for partial clones and characters with unique but limited movesets, and 3 is for mooks, jobbers, and meme shit
that way you can just "promote" characters from Tier 2 to Tier 1 across multiple entries (or even DLC i unno)
that's why the game is so pricey these days? I thought it had a limited print or something... or maybe some exclusivity with certain stores like Xenoblade
Kirby just needs his goddamn slide kick. Six characters with down-tilt slide kicks now and Kirby isn't one of them.
I think most agree that Samus needs an overhaul since a lot of fans don't think she "feels" like Samus. I'm not a Metroid fan, so I don't know what that means entirely, but I know Project M did a damn good job with her.

It's extremely popular in certain region but it was limited print because they never sold out to warrant the second printing.
That's why they had supplies issues with Awakening because they didn't expected it to sold out, and people were selling it for like 100 dollars within first two months or so.
wasn't Ike included in Smash because he was popular?
Sales of a game doesn't necessarily translate into popularity and vice versa. Bayonetta is a very popular character (enough to "win" the ballot), but her games sell bad.

Smash 4 having more unique newcomers overall probably skews how people feel about it in terms of gimmicks or flavors of the month or whatever. Like, of course it has more than other Smash games, it has more new characters overall
Yes, it does. Ike's broader popularity has very little to do with his games. Saying "he's popular, so who cares?" doesn't really answer anything.
Brawl was still cleaning up characters that could have easily been in Smash 64 or Melee. I mean, it's not like there's a Dedede or a Wario or a Diddy still floating out there as ultra huge characters from massive franchises whose exclusion in previous games was confusing.
So of course Smash 4 had to pull from a different well than Brawl was able to.

People actually want Falcon to have more of a legacy.
That F-Zero twitter thing a while back boosted straight into my soul.
you gotta pay a high price for his sympathy, I suppose
eesh.. meanwhile, I see people basically giving away copies of Sin and Punishment 2;
No? He was included because he was the newest Fire Emblem protagonist at the time.
On Character Selection: Brawl
On Character Selection is back and picking up where we left off we have got Brawl.

Not really different from how we got Greninja.

Captain Falcon's legacy is greater than Corrin tho.
Cap Falcon is THE Mascot of Smash Bros. So no one can beat that! :P
Byleth is from the first HD Fire Emblem game & what's considered one of the best games in the series.

I bought Sin and Punishment 2 when it was like 5 dollars. Yeah, they were trying to get rid of those games badly.

Remember the trailer that Cap Falcon had to fight against THREE FIRE EMBLEM characters and handling it like a champ.
He managed to take Chrom down and nearly defeat Lucina at her own game without an usage of swords. And manage to dodge Robin's elwind.

I miss this style of CG animation for Fire Emblem's cutscenes. Not sure why they changed it for Shadows of Valentia & Three Houses.Remember the trailer that Cap Falcon had to fight against THREE FIRE EMBLEM characters and handling it like a champ.

Smash 4 has some of my least favorite newcomers overall, besides Pac Man but even he wasn't done in the way that I'd like (pretty much only references to arcade games without anything else from his series)
There's a picture of Ike wearing this fucking sweater out there but I can't find it and it's literally destroying me rn

I was fine with her not being present. 3D World felt like it wasn't comfortable moving out of Galaxy's shadow. It was time to move on to something else entirely.
