Bringing up the Ancient Minister (who I agree was awesome), actually gave me an idea about R.O.B. that could be implemented in SSB4. This is of course assuming Final Smashes are kept in SSB4.

Before I go into it though, are we allowed to talk about possible Final Smashes for the characters up for discussion? I don't know if they were brought up for the Zelda discussion, but no one mentioned them during the Pokemon or Game & Watch sections. Just figured I'd ask because I don't wanna talk about Final Smashes if they're going to end up being the topic of a future section XD

Stack-Up would NOT be a good game to re-release, ever played it? You could just cheat. And ROB liked to drop the stacks a lot. Gyromite utilized him a bit better, in my opinion.

I think one of the reasons R.O.B. played such an important role in the Subspace Emissary was because he isn't in the limelight. He has little-to-no established history in-universe, allowing his character to be built upon without deviation from the source material.


Yeah, that was my line of thinking. It really could go anywhere, just like Mr. Game & Watch, except a bit more limited, since R.O.B is a robot. Also, R.O.B does have morals, as we see the Ancient Minister is doing all this just to save his people (who just die in the process, LOL) and we see from the way they bow their heads before they die that the do, indeed, have brains. This makes for a limited, but deep, way of developing this character in the next game. SILENCE SOMEHOW TELLS AN AMAZINGLY DEEP STORY.

I am actually planning on doing a full-blown topic specifically about final smashes, but if you think it is an essential thing to add to the discussion right now, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to dabble in it in a very minor way.

Alright, cool. Basically, I felt R.O.B.'s Final Smash was kinda similar to Wario's and Bowser's in that you essentially gain control of a more powerful version of your character for a few seconds. Except R.O.B.'s, in my opinion, was kinda lame compared to the others. Instead of turning into a super hero or Giga Bowser he just shoots lasers out of his eyes at all times. I'm not saying it wasn't powerful, it just struck me as kinda lackluster.

I won't go into any of the details I've thought of now (I'll save that for the Final Smash discussion later), but I thought his Final Smash could be changed to involve the Ancient Minister in some way.

I think that he should use those Stack-Up blocks to crush everyone on screen.

As I've said, I hadn't even heard of ROB until Brawl came around, so I've never had the opportunity to play it. That said, to reiterate, I'm not proposing a re-release, but remake.

I completely agree, ROB's Final Smash was one of, if not the worst in the game... but I'll save that line of discussion for later. On topic, I really like the idea of the Ancient Minister being worked into ROB's moveset, but I'm not quite sure if Nintendo will want to stray away from franchise loyalty when it comes to general gameplay. I think it'd be cool for his final smash to involve him suddenly growing large and appearing in the background of the stage, where he can drop huge blocks on unsuspecting players.

edit: I just realised LtS pretty much said the exacy same thing above. Remind me to read all the posts before responding next time! xP

So.....I guess we're done with the R.O.B. subtopic? Doesn't look like anyone has much more to say...

Haha, I suppose not. I have just really been slacking when it comes to posting on the forums lately. If everyone else is okay with it, I will try to post the next sub-topic soon. I'm not going to do an Endgame Accolades for R.O.B. simply because not very much was covered.

The Evil Pikachu played Brawl with me and raged about how the LAZOR EYES sucked!

...yeah, nothing more we really can touch upon.
