Alright, I know y'all are thinking, *groans* Another Smash Bros thread. I don't really deny that we have been getting a lot of Smash Bros threads lately. I thought it might be a good time for some of us to admit that we are wrong about certain characters that we have been on anti stance against characters for reasons.
For SmashGAF regulars, people knew me very well would know that I'm strongly against Bayonetta and Waluigi for long time ever since they announced Smash Bros for both consoles in 2011.
For Waluigi, I always felt that he wasn't even important enough to become playable character because I always see Waluigi as filler characters for many spin off Mario games. I guess Sakurai already knew that Waluigi was quite popular but not enough to be in the game, so I must remind everyone what Sakurai said on behalf of Waluigi.
Alright, I'm done with Waluigi and let me move to best part about this thread, Bayonetta.
On the record for people, I played Bayonetta quite long time ago and I only played for a couple of hours before I moved on. I recalled that I dislike the game and I don't feel like I wanted to put all of my efforts into this game quite long time ago.
There are few occasions that I would step in and tell the fans that I don't think Bayonetta become playable character in Smash Bros because I always felt that her appearance is unlikely due to few reasons. I admit that the only reason why I don't really want to see Bayonetta being in the game because her body would become partially naked in order to use the strong moves or combo finishers. Yes, I know it may sound silly that I was concerned that she regained the ability to become partially naked in Smash Bros which would make it inappropriate for my niece and nephews to play the game. I know that they could tone it down but I was unsure that Sakurai would do that since Bayonetta might kept her personality and charms in Smash Bros because we know how Sakurai love to have characters' details in the games. That's what made Sakurai pretty good because he often tried his best to keep it faithful to the characters as much as he could in Smash Bros. I actually appreciated that Sakurai did fantastic job with Bayonetta in Smash Bros in term of visual aspect and keep Bayonetta's personality and charm much as he could without having her going partially nude.
Later on, Ryu and Cloud got confirmed to be in the game, I became more convinced that third party characters need to be iconic enough to become playable characters in Smash Bros. I basically wrote Bayonetta off once again since I felt that she's not iconic enough to be in the game.
During Final Smash Presentation, we got an unexpected character trailer, which concluded Bayonetta being in Smash Bros. I was legit shook with the announcement trailer. I just didn't see it coming at all. I wasn't even disappointed, salty or upset. I think I was completely stunned with her announcement trailer and the fact that Sakurai managed to pulled it off with Bayonetta without taking things away from Bayonetta what made her the Bayonetta that most fans loved and knew. I should have know better when it come down with Sakurai because we always knew that he tried his best to be faithful to the characters much as he could. I'm glad that Bayonetta is Bayonetta in the game.
The reason why I made the thread because I want to address an apology to Bayonetta fans here and the lurkers that read SmashGAF hype threads with us for last two years. I'm truly sorry that I might have give some of you hard time regard with Bayonetta being in Smash Bros and completely wrote her off. I'm admitting that I'm completely wrong about Bayonneta. Sakurai did a fantastic job with Bayonetta and I'm completely impressed with her moveset and how she is full of personality and charms in Smash Bros.
Also here is other apology from me.
I decided to give the franchise a second chance so I picked up the game today. I'm not sure when I would start the game but it's my goal that I would able to finish the game before Bayonetta get released for Smash Bros in Feb 2016.
Feel free to share your crow pie here and be man enough to owe up your mistake!

Just becuase you try hard doesn't mean you'll make it into the battle.
