Title: What characters do you use the most in Smash Bros?
Post by: Zarkanthesmasher on June 23, 2008, 05:13:00 PM
Note: I'm talking about in all three games, not just the current one. ;)

Anyway, in both the original and Melee, I use Captain Falcon, although I did use Samus when I first started playing the original Smash Bros. Nowadays I use Donkey Kong in Brawl, because sadly Captain Falcon is not nearly as good in the latest edition, and I needed someone who had a lot of power and decent speed.

I use the characters that carry swords most of the time.

Ness

Pikachu
And Captain Falcon. But I'm not very good as him yet.

Pikachu has been one of my mains since the first Smash Bros.

Diddy Kong

It's fun to see people constantly hate on him (for some unknown reason) only to swallow their words because they lose via banana and break kick combo.

Well, I didn't see a topic like this in the first four pages of this forum, and that goes all the way back to April. ;)

You can always do a search.  Revive the topic.  As long as you're making a contribution, thread revives aren't usually classified as bumps.

Wario is my main in the 3rd game, Ganondorf was my main in the 2nd, and Luigi was my main in the 1st.

Yeah, and get 1,000 pages with the word "toadstool" in it when I search for "ads".

My mains in Brawl are Wario (with overalls) and Toon Link. I didn't really have a main in Melee, but I probably used Mario most often. I had to switch for Brawl because I'll never get used to the FLUDD (and I'm not too fond of Mario's next-gen (http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=224) red.). And I didn't have 64.

One of the other things that gets me about Mario is... he's not Mario. The Mario we know from those incredible platformers and Super Mario Sunshine can't be the same one from Brawl and the SMS box. In Brawl, he's just so... D:< all the time. The jolliest thing he does is say "Here we go!" when you select him using a non-GameCube controller. In the game, it's all about scowling and sounding utterly unenthusiastic. I don't know WHAT Luigi is, but at least Luigi's face isn't boiling with rage.

They really brought out the weird in Luigi for SMBB, with the trippy final smash sequence, "bang bang" taunt when you win, and other stuff like that.

I actually like that portrayal of Mario better. It's less obnoxious, more heroic, and a greater contrast to Luigi. He has the "Brooklyn mentality", something that I, as a Brooklynite, appreciate in such a character.

Towards Bird Person and The Chef: I don't think Mario looks like he's boiling with rage as much as he appears to be grim with seriousness. And as far as I know, Mario maintains a fairly serious demeanor in every game where you can clearly see his mouth (non-sports games after LM).

Maybe the portly plumber knows when to act goofy and when to take the bull by the horns? I mean, he is in the ring with people like Snake, Ganondorf and Bowser after all.

My opinion is that since he's supposed to be Mr. Nintendo (or whatever he was called in the SSB64 character bio) and there are guests (Sonic and Snake; I suppose you could count Grey Fox and Shadow too) this time around, he's behaving himself and acting as more of a fighter than the happy-go-lucky party animal he is.

And that's fine, for battle-ready poses. But c'mon, when you're taunting your enemy (especially if you choose to tip your hat to do so), you should be smiling victoriously, or at least smugly...

Though I did catch him looking more like Jolly Mario!

Nothing wrong with a "Hah!" face while fighting.

Guess Mario's personality may be deeper than people give him credit for. You don't need dialog to capture a character's personality.

Mario looks more Insane Evil Mastermind than Jolly in that picture.
