uhh, i know its probably not my place to say this, but youre kinda being overly-aggressive over a video game. itd be cool to keep this to a healthy discussion. thanks.
anywho, back to discussion.
no one liked fludd? you cant speak for everyone. some people were turned off by it and some others werent. even though one move was taken away, it didnt stop mario mains playing their favorite plumber.
but hey! sakurai threw a curveball at us! even though dr. mario was an alternate costume, he and his team went through the extra trouble to make him a character, just to please a few extra people. nothing's wrong with that, right?
and it wasnt one moved that was changed. dr mario was made to be stronger and slower, in order to make the difference greater between the two. now those who thought mario was too fast and weak can play dr. mario. its just another option that was very thoughtful of sakurai and his team.
a lot casual players experience nintendo through smash bros. however, just because kid icarus has one more character than donkey kong does not stop the player from being curious about donkey kong. after playing smash 4 for the first time, i started getting curious about the dk series, believe it or not. its not like i had to look at mario/pokemon's rep first to see if the dk series is worth my time. same goes for f-zero, metroid, and earthbound
moveset and gameplay mean shit? i dont understand that point at all. movesets make a fighting game what it is, and smash bros is a fighting/party game. movesets not only have to be (a little) accurate to the games, but it has to work in the fighting genre. without those things in mind, youre probably going to have a bad game. if smash wasnt good or fun to play, nobody would care for it. i can care less about how much kirby or zelda is represented. if the game is bad, im not playing. the same probably goes for many other people.
