Metroid
A - talon poke
Forward + A - extended talon poke?
Up + A - headbutt (shellbutt?)
Down + A - crouching talon poke?
Run + A - tackle
Smash forward + A - forward tackle
Smash up + A - shellbutt
Smash down + A - spin?
Neutral air - spin
Forward air - talon poke?
Backward air - backward talon poke?
Up air - tilting shellbutt?
Down air - drill talon kick?
B - spin?
Forward + B - forward tackle
Up + B - diagonal flying tackle (think Mario's Up + B, Marth's Up + B, etc.)
Down + B - drain life (Yoshi)
I tried. I just don't see how it's viable... There are like three really cool things that a Metroid could do (the life drain, spinning and stabbing with the talons, and a headbutt with a Metroid's outer shell would probably look dumb but I can't say I wouldn't be entertained), but that's about it. >_> As opposed to someone like Marin or Sami, who also stand no chance of getting in, but who I can at least think of a ton of awesome moves for.

Very cool move list!
How about some moves where it changes into one of the Metroid species from Metroid II?

Now that would be better, but I think the chances of them putting anything besides a baby Metroid are small.CreatureX3 said:Very cool move list!

Can we quit it? You know they would never have a Metroid a playable character. It just is retarded. That shit is for Nintendo boards or Gamefaqs.

You know, Melee had goombas and ReDeads popping out of crates and such every once it awhile. Perhaps the Metroid would be better suited for that role?
That reminds me: the enemy crates had better be a selectable option in the item switch this time. That and exploding capsules. The latter were too common, the former not common enough... Unless you played with like items on very high and everything turned off, you'd almost never see the enemies come out. (Usually not even then.)Keru_Shiri said:

Oh what the hell, I'll help you out a bit. I'm actually liking this idea now.

Again, where the hell did that smashbrothersisseriousbusiness.gif get to?
Well, my only point (maybe it didn't come across) was that a Metroid really doesn't work, anyway. >_>
What Ant is saying is mostly right, but I'd just make one adjustment... It's not limbs per se that you need in order to make a Smash character, but flexibility. Jigglypuff and Kirby could probably be done without any of the attacks using their "arms" because they do have feet and weird flexibility, and Pikachu would work with a tail and none of its kicks. A Metroid's talons aren't flexible, which is what I was hoping to get at (they're all talon pokes with no stabs because every animated Metroid I've seen doesn't have much range of movement in those things), so there's not much you can do with them.

Like I said, jesus christ sorry my idea was so retarded. I didn't put nearly as much thought into it as you guys did, I just wanted to see a character move in that floaty way the Metroids do.
Yeah, I did. PSI Fire and PSI Thunder weren't his moves; they were Paula's (and Poo's I think). It even said so in SSB64's description of him.GaimeGuy said:
Fair enough, though I do think that's a good point for the Metroid.GaimeGuy said:
Nobody here can imagine a decent moveset; I won't lie, I can't either. I'll bet someone on the Smash Bros. team, if interested, could. Besides, I still think it'd be cool if it appeared in the game with some wacked-out playing style that would come with a floating blob with fangs. If that's retarded, whatever.

They never cease to surprise me.
And the characters seem work so well in the environments and with the items around them.
I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THIS GAME.

Haha, I love today's update. Little details like this that make the game awesome. And holy crap at the thought of riding a crate downhill!
Heh, pikachu jumped on the crate and caused it to slide down the ramp.
That's another difference we see in these pictures. You couldn't jump on crates or barrels in Melee, but looks like you can (at least on crates) in Brawl

So the Fire Emblem stage platform moves around as well? Interesting.
Also, do all these Yoshi's Island stage shots make anyone else really want a new 2D YI on Wii? That art is so pretty.

Fire Emblem stage shows promise.
And looks like the crates do have wheels. Good eye.

Awesome, superior item interaction. I always enjoyed a barrel rolling up and down an incline, so having crates do it too works for me.
But the changing look of the items... Now that's just fantastic. I love it. Really adds to the flavor of basically everything. I wonder if they ever change in weight or sliding speed, or just in appearance.
