TSR's Super Smash Bros Thread|SWITCH HYPE TRAIN NOW BOARDING

[Koopaul]

First of all you can't compare Tekken or Street Fighter since they aren't pulling characters or IP from outside their own game (well they do sometimes).

Secondly you mentioning Kid Icarus' revival proves the terrible power of Smash Bros. This game has the power to shape the fates of a series or character. This is why many people on the DKVine want K. Rool in Smash since it might bring him back into the DK series. That's right. Its not because they think he'd be fun to play as, its about saving their beloved reptile from extinction.

Its not really fair that appearing in one game can outweigh everything they've done outside of it.

Let me put it this way. Imagine a guy named Joe who works really hard everyday at his job hoping one day he'll get a promotion. Now image Jeff. He's a lazy employee who has only been to work for three days now and nobody likes him. Well the boss is throwing a party at work and somehow Jeff was invited. Who knows why, but he was and Joe wasn't. Because Jeff was at that party and got to meet all the bosses and higher ups, he's been promoted to a position that Joe has been working years for. Is that fair? Not really. Sure Jeff was a lot of fun at that party but is that more important than years of hard work?
