Almost 10 years since I've made a topic like this.

I wonder if it would be too controversial nowadays.

Well, one way to find out.

For any reason(or no reason?), you were given a choice to recreate or reboot a Nintendo Property. Wheater it's a popular one or an obscure one.

1. What would be the story? The lore? World-building is very important!

2. What are the characters? The Heroes? The Villains? Who stays and who gets cut out?

3. What would the tone be like? Would it be silly or serious? Light-hearted or darker? A mix of both?

4. What else would you change about the story, lore, & content? Would there be a timeline?

5. If remaking an older game, how would it be done? Would more than one game be merged; a la, SMBDX for GBC?

6. What would the gameplay be like? Will it be the same? How different would it be?

7. How would it play? Would it use 4 buttons? 6 buttons? D-Pad or C-Stick?

8. Would there be a post game? A hidden hard mode?

I'm still thinking about this.

If I was to make a roster, I truly think about who would be worthy of being playable.

There are three things I want form a playable character in a platform fighter. Mobility, Arsenal, and Combat.

Mobility: I'm not just talking about being quick and nimble. The character has to have something that can propel itself anywhere, especially upward. Either a skill(the SMB2 Super Jump, Cammy's Cannon Spike/Thrust Kick), a Power-Up(the S3&K Electric Shield, the Hi-Jump Ability) or an item(Proto Man's Proto Coil, a Jetpack) can work for many. This is primary why I'm having trouble thinking up something for Simon Belmont, and would rather choose Richter Belmont instead.

Arsenal: Of course they have to have something to dish out some major damage(or at least, some trouble like confusion or paralysis). Either weapons, elemental powers, or whatever they can pull out that would make good, workable special moves. This is primarily why most characters from Fighting Games and Beat 'em Ups are hard to work movesets for(as well as the fighters being considered boring. They fight and nothing else), Especially 3D Fighters(Praise the Lord for oddballs like Yoshimitsu).

Combat: Though you can unleash the biggest fire power you want, it wouldn't matter if the enemy is that close up to you ready to pound your face in.I still say you need to have some good form of close range combat for minor moves(weak and strong). It'd be good for setting up combos. Either punches and kicks(Chibi-Robo,Twinbee), scratches, slashing, and clawing(Corrin should be able to do this), or any close range weapon(Farfetch'd's leek, Waddle Doo's sword for "Kirby: Right back At Ya!, even Mappy having a night stick) will work for this situation. This is Primary why thinking up a good moveset for say, anyone from Contra, is extremely difficult.

To give a good example, The titular Legendary(yeah right) Starfy(as well as his baby sister, Starly) has Mobility and Combat down, but he(and she) is(are) lacking in the Arsenal department(I don't want to give them any abilities that alter their appearances)

These three are what matters the most to me. If a character fits all three conditions(as well as having a major appearance on a Nintendo System), then they certainly qualify for my roster.

Often considered responsible for turning a lot of people into... uh, "furries."

While cartoons weren't the ones responsible for for the... uh, "furriness, " they sure did offer a huge hand in it.

Disney's group is perhaps the biggest offender in this. They have a history of drawing anthropomorphic creatures; in fact, almost ALL their characters in the classic shorts and anything related to them(DuckTales, Goof Troop, Clubhouse, etc.) are anthropomorphic animals and monsters, a few of them being female. The "furriness" didn't really start till the 70's with some of their movies(The Rescuers, The Aristocats, Robin Hood) and it really hit home in the 90's with their new shows. Gadget Hackwrench was popular enough to have a fricking CHURCH in Russia!

All dedicated to her likeness. Disney has many varieties to choose from. From Daisy Duck, to Rebecca Cunningham, to Brandy Harrington to Lambie, as well as many choices of species. Hell, even the Character Costumes at their theme parks are something to look oogle at. Case in point... www.flickr.com/photos/10152427…

Warner Bros' group isn't that far off either. Though, their classic characters may not have a bigger impact on the furry fandom compared to Disney(had less females than Disney, as well as more humans), it wasn't until the 90's that their material(the newer ones) have caught the attention of furries. It seems that every female creature Warner Bros had was just made to lust over, or, at least, had moments of this. The one exception that comes to my mind is Petunia Pig... or am I missing something?

Hanna-Barbera's group is more tamed in this in compare to the other mentioned two. Back then, it was just Cindy Bear, and even then, the artstyle was a case of YMMV. Though, they would later have characters like Callie Briggs and Penny Squirrel...

Lesser cartoons also apply. Someone did mention Cleo from Heathcliff. Either way, the whole furry thing isn't a bad thing, but as said, some do take a bit far.

Though, that can be said for any form of fandom.

Do you prefer character getting hit on the head with an anvil or a basin?

Do you prefer characters showcasing their anger by turning their face red or having a vein pop up?

And what kind of mallet do you prefer? One made of wood, metal, or plastic?

That kind of stuff
