:Uh, I'd say no.

Tatsumaki is a spinning kick that is functionally different from the Mario Tornado. Super Jump Punch is also functionally different from Shoryuken and is also a staple of sorts from the Mario series, although this one is arguable.

Revision as of 16:48, March 2, 2015
We should make character pages for SSB and SSBB (when it comes out). Also, I'm not completely sure about all the pros/cons since I just used ones from the tier arguement in the SSB boards. --Greenblob 19:13, December 31, 2006 (GMT)
- I agree entirely. 100%. Bad news: I haven't a clue about anything advanced in SSB. I'm pretty much an SSBM man only. I'm sure there's a few people in here who could lend us a hand. If I'm not mistaking, I think Simna ibn Sind knows a thing or two about the original Smash. Oddeven2002 23:42, December 31, 2006 (GMT)
I play Smash 64 a bit more than melee. ill fix anything wrong. User:KoRoBeNiKi
Special moves reference
Does it make sense to note somewhere (whether on this page, on the main Mario page, or on the individual move pages) that Mario's special moves in the original Smash Bros could be a reference to Ryu of Street Fighter? Mario's 3 special moves are similar to Ryu's 3 special moves, with Super Jump Punch being Shoryuken, Fireball being Hadouken, and Mario Tornado being Tatsumaki. Mario is the main character and all-around fighter, as is Ryu, and he has a clone in Luigi, as does Ryu in Ken. Additionally, Sakurai is known to be a fan of Street Fighter, having come out as a champion of a 100-person battle in arcade Street Fighter II. I dunno, it seems like an interesting coincidence, at the least. ♡FirstaLasto♥ 14:43, 2 March 2015 (EST)
