Could you post your current roster? I don't really want to go back and find it >.<
You keep arguing a strawman.
Give one good reason why Lucas being a starter makes more sense than Ness being a starter? It made sense in Brawl because Lucas was a newcomer, and obviously it's a good idea from a marketing perspective to show off newcomers in the starting roster over veterans - but Ness and Lucas have nothing over one another that means either one will definitely be starter or definitely be unlockable. So I ask again, what makes you seem so sure Ness won't be a starter? It's Ness's popularity versus Lucas's recency (recent being 2006 - aka not recent at all), neither of which is a particularly compelling argument. I'm not saying Ness will be a starter; I'm saying you have no way of knowing that he won't be.
Ganon + waluigi = is gud roster
That's not how it works.
Sanic plz
What about in context of a possible reveal in October for X/Y?
Pokemon Trainer will not be getting replaced by another Pokemon Trainer - he'll either get updated, or scrapped altogether (probably the former). Similarly, where is Ice Climbers and R.O.B.?
y no Ice Climbers?
Sonic? Was he that fast that you forgot him?
Stop saying 'that's not how it works' as if that means anything and provide a decent counterargument. What makes Lucas a more likely starter than Ness?
Waluigi isn't a Wario character, Ghirahim is highly unlikely, another F-Zero character is unneeded, a Unova Trainer is unneeded and unlikely, Roy has no chance, No Snake. 6.5/10.
At this point Ghirahim is getting more and more unlikely, so I'd think about removing him. Sakurai clearly cares about adding a second Link above one-shot Zelda characters.
There are plenty of characters that will need to be revealed but won't have an accompanying game to promote, we'll likely get one of them next month. That's my guess at least.
My guess is Pokemon would get priority, but I don't think Sonic is out of the picture. Unless Sakurai wants to save his reveal for another time. Who knows, we might even get two reveals that month (though that's probably not the likeliest).
Ness is already an unlock able and Sakurai doesn't change somebody who is an unlock able to a starter because of recent advertising.
Ness has been an unlockable character more than he's been a starter. He was a hidden character most recently, and Lucas has never been a hidden character. I'm not saying it'll definitely stay as it was in Brawl, but there is a precedent for both Ness to stay hidden and Lucas to stay starter (though I'd prefer the other way around).
I meant to say unlock able.
NONE of those statements are true in the slightest.
I get the feeling you meant to say Lucas is a starter. Either way, Sakurai may not change somebody who is unlockable to a starter for advertising, nor does he make starters unlockable for said reason, but he has changed starters to unlockables and unlockables to starters in the past and there's no saying that he won't do so again. I'm not making an argument either way that Lucas or Ness will be starter or unlockable, but given that they've both been starters at one point in time, you'd do well to stop acting like Sakurai and pretending you 'know how it works'. Ness could be a starter, as he has been in the past, and just as equally, Lucas could be a starter as he has in the past.
Oh great, it's one of those kind of speculators again. Hang on a second, I'll get the trainwreck on standby...
We know for a fact, from Sakurai himself, that work has been put into making the Ice Climbers work. They're not going anywhere.
Does that post really work in this situation? Who's mad? I'm just simply teaching you none of the statements you made are true at all.
It's not that you're saying it will happen, it's your defending points being so inaccurate it's painful to look at.
