RE: Cloud is to be in Super Smash Bros! - Coda - 11-14-2015
Goodness.Â
Might as well rename it Super Sword Bros at this point. In any case, this sort of cooperation between publishers is nice. Usually the biz is so insanely possessive over IPs, so it's good to see that they're willing to break the rules for the sake of the fans.Â
Even if the character is massively played out

Nintendo has gone such an odd path these years... I know a lot of people do like Cloud but as a smash player myself. Where is Bayonetta?! She was so high on Smash baillot when gamer had to vote for characters!

Great, one of my least favorite FF characters. Was really hoping for Shantae. I thought they said they were looking for characters other than just another swordsman?

I am interested. Not excited, but happy for those who are. In particular the Midgar stage looks great. I adore the Summons hook.
I still find VI to be the best FF of the series' history, but I also appreciate why VII gets high love...and I always adore watching people love a thing even if I don't share the enthusiasm.
Should be fun times, yo.

Is it bad that I was hoping for Vivi? My FFIX love gets no recognition Q_Q
RE: Cloud is to be in Super Smash Bros! - Lost River - 11-22-2015
I was hoping more for Terra or someone else from Final Fantasy 6.Â
But 7 has such a strong following (it isn't even my favorite of Final Fantasy title either), I can see why they marketed anyone from FF7.
I although won't be getting him at release either, I like Final Fantasy, I like Street Fighter, but I don't care at all for Super Smash. . . it just does not appeal to me; same for Kingdom Hearts either. I know, blasphemy right? Heh, just not for me. ^_^

Jesus christ the salt. No offense.
Cloud isn't from the Smash Brothers Ballet, it's kinda like Ryu which was a deal between Nintendo and Capcom. Squeenix wants a slice of the pie, and wanting to accept or not, Cloud is THE face of the Final Fantasy series, together with Sephiedgy. I guarantee you people would be even more upset if it was Lightning of all people.

Some of us were gaming before 1997. Ergo, we need a third qualifier:
3) new and shiny enough for the younger generations to actually recognize.

Can't please everyone; just for me though, I was banking for more FF6 than 7 due to Nintendo platform, 6 is a masterpiece and such; but as you said, Cloud and Sephiroth are indeed the spokespeople for the Final Fantasy series.
If they put Lightning in there? I wouldn't be bothered, then again, why just stop with one Final Fantasy character? Watch Smash end up slowly turning into "Everyone's Fighter Bros."
