[QUOTE=Random Access;48521046]Layton feels more like assist trophy material than a fighter.[/QUOTE]
This comment still really bothers me after awhile.
Why isn't Layton qualified to be a fighter? He's the main protagonist of an ongoing exclusive franchise to the DS and 3DS, and he also showed that he can use a sword decently.
I really don't get why he's more assist trophy material, is it because he isn't a FE character?
because his franchise is solving puzzles revolving around matchsticks and logic and that doesn't lend itself to a fighter in most people's minds. it's easier to think of some dr kawashima style assist mechanic for him than a moveset that makes sense. he uses a sword, well so does every fire emblem and people just LOVE them.
he's also a third party that isn't as recognizable as the third parties we've been getting but maybe sakurai wants to appeal to the casual european gamer audience because layton sells like crumpets (translator's note; crumpet means hotcake) over there. i don't know if those people would buy smash and dlc just for layton but eh.

Captain Falcon likes to race and occasionally fights, that's it.
Duck Hunt shoots ducks, that's it.

I think they'd easily find enough inspiration for Layton.
Also sorry Exooodus.

layton can fight
stop using this argument
yes he can use a sword
so can half the cast
this was already established. does he get a pass because he's a cartoon swordsman instead of an anime swordsman

just wait for project m 4.0
[QUOTE=PSI Guy;48527544]does he get a pass because he's a cartoon swordsman instead of an anime swordsman[/QUOTE]
At least that would be more unique design wise.
Just my opinion but I think Layton belongs in the same camp as Shovel Knight or Shantae as "good characters but aren't big enough to be in Smash."
[QUOTE=PSI Guy;48527544]yes he can use a sword

He gets a pass because he wouldn't rely entirely on using a sword. He could only use it for particular moves. There is so much you could do with him. You're really close-minded if you think he couldn't be creatively inserted into the roster, just like Pacman, Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, etc.

We have Wii Fit Tainer, R.O.B., Villager, Olimar, Ice Clumbers, and Duck Hunt as characters. The "their gameplay doesn't lend into a fighter" argument is entirely invalid.
I find it funny (as in actually ha ha funny I'm not being snide here) that moveset potential is a moot point either way. A character has things that lend themselves to an obvious moveset? Whatever. A character is weird and doesn't really seem like a fighter? Also fine. Does this character do things at all? Then they can be in Smash, probably.
Layton seems like a weird choice to me but I can see why they'd do it (lets them be more buddy-buddy with Level 5 who've released tons of Nintendo exclusive best sellers, Layton is very popular in Europe and across wide demographics, not entirely against his character in that he'll fight if he needs to but would rather not, etc). I just... don't really care for the idea.
(maybe because IMBd based speculation makes me roll my eyes really hard)
After much suffering at the hands of RNGesus, I finally managed to beat 8.0 classic on the WiiU with 3 characters and unlock both Master Fortress tracks. :dance:
Thank you Ganondorf, Bowser and Zelda. And now to never do that again, because fuck the AI at that level, fuck Master Core, and fuck Master Fortress.
Having trouble getting my Gamecube controller working on Dolphin. Had it working before but now that I'm on Win10 it just doesn't seem to want to work.

Consider asking [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1478880&page=30"]here[/URL] and see what the guys there say, people have issues every once and awhile that are usually resolved there.
I think I would be 95% better at Megaman if he had a side tilt. Up-tilt is nearly impossible to do since the controller takes more than the tiniest of movements as a smash, meaning such a precise attack is worthless because it takes so much time to set up.
Try setting your Right stick/Cstick to "attack" so it will do tilts instead of smashes
[QUOTE=DrCactus;48528217]Try setting your Right stick/Cstick to "attack" so it will do tilts instead of smashes[/QUOTE]
This does help a lot, but I kinda wish that it wasn't so hard to use the up tilt efficiently, because I would have to stand still and not run at all to be able to properly execute the attack, and it's not that easy to keep yourself from sprinting while you're in an active match.
I have a question for you guys, if you could remove one character, any character and add one in it's place who would you choose?
Gimmick being if you remove a direct clone like Dark Pit, the character you want to add will be just as lazy of a clone
Remove Sanic, put in Bomberman.
Nobody will miss Sonic anyway.
Remove dark pit add Grey Palutena
Her default specials are different for online play. Also Gray Palutena, same deal.

The fact that Hudson was murdered and Bomberman is a dead franchise the last time I checked hurts.

Whatever do you mean? Like all Konami IPs he will soon have his own line of slot machines!
:suicide:
Ah fuck, Konami owns the rights to Bomberman now apparently.
Who's ready for Sexy Bomberman Pachinko?
He should get in, but we get the Act Zero Bomberman instead.
