By the way, squid assassin's name is Nomad.
Wow, those look great! I totally just brushed off these games. Are they any good?
It depends. They're fun but get repetitive quickly. I found controlling and fighting with Dillon to be lots of fun, but the tower defense style of the game kind of got in the way.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH thank you for this!
Yes. They are unique third-person adventure style tower defense tactical games with a heavy emphasis on time and distance management.
It's so thrilling, and the battles -- while somewhat repetitive -- are full of different enemy types and different and more powerful moves you can learn with different gear you can buy from your earnings from different relics and gems you can find and sell.
Tip: use your thumb not a stylus.
YMMV if a lefty.

What an awesome design!
They are good but not quite great. If they can get the pacing down and polish the tower defense part they'd be great. I hope they keep at it because the characters are really cool.

Never played his games, but his design looks cool. Maybe he'll be playable in the next Smash Bros
His model looks really good.
Perfect lol

If Dillon made it into Smash, even as an assist, then Captain Falcon is assuredly in. I can breath a sigh of relief now.

What's the matter? Nintendo's got you pushing too many pencils?

He would have been great as a character, could have re-used a lot of Sonic animation for him.
I wonder if some assist trophies might not be upgraded into full characters via DLC?

Sure, they can just use the Other M version as the assist trophy and the Prime version as the playable character. That way there won't be any confusion.
Extra characters depends on the potential hacking scene.

Here's my post from the smash topic.
Short and sweet: It's all bittersweet, but here's to next time!
Nomad, also even Boone or Gallo would have made sweet Assist Trophies. (Or possible playable character if I wanted to feel confident.) Russ I think would make a great up-B for Dillon.
As a lefty who's 100% both games, I'll say that while it's a bit more tiring than kid Icarus -- what with you flicking on the screen most of the time -- It's totally playable for lefties. Shoot, they added a lefty option in the sequel, but I went back to the normal one because it felt more comfortable. For the normal controls, you use your left hand to steer with the circle pad and your right to rev Dillon with the touchscreen.
He's has two. (And I don't mean Smash 3ds and WiiU.)
Another wouldn't hurt though.
*looks at Nintendo direction.*
Hinty hint hint.

Why are people insisting that Dillon only rolls in his game :/
Despite the title, rolling is only like, 1/4th of his arsenal.

Probably because they likely haven't played it, every time I see people act like you could costume swap him with Sonic because they both have a charging roll and it'd be a job done i'm kind of puzzled, he'd share a sort of similar Down B at best with less speed and more impact and then everything else would be completely different.
OK I let it sink in. I still don't understand what your point is.

the charged roll of Dillon doesn't even work like Sonic's. For Dillon it was wearing down enemies or gathering items, for Sonic it's to go faster

Male and Female Wii Fit Trainers are different incarnations of the same character who happen to have the similar body types and, by extent, hitboxes.
Sonic and Dillon are two completely different characters with their own abilities and distinct designs.

I bought the first one but only played it for a little bit.
I'm a big fan of action+tower defense hybrids like Orcs Must Die!, but this one didn't really hook me. There seemed to be too much of a reliance on you as the character doing most of the combat instead of being strategic and letting the towers do the work. This isan't always a bad thing if the combat is fun (like OMD!) but I never found myself enjoying the core controls of Dillion. If I remember right, It relies way too much on the stylus to powerup attacks which just felt unnecessary and not as fun as just using buttons.
