Hello, my name is John. I knew about ''Smash'' long ago with ''Melee'', and got exposed to the series again with ''Brawl'' in 2009, but it was only until the spring of 2014 when my friends really got me into it. Credit goes to [[Snake]] for getting me to play. If it weren't for his presence in ''Brawl'', I wouldn't have gotten into the game. Naturally, Snake getting cut from ''SSB4'' disappointed me, but luckily, I warmed up to some of the other characters, and have since enjoyed playing games such as [[EarthBound (game)|''EarthBound'']]. Snake's return in ''Ultimate'' has me really excited for that game.

Prior to ''Ultimate'', I was probably the only person to use the [[Wii Remote]] + Nunchuck when playing ''Smash''. I have now switched the the [[Nintendo Switch Pro Controller|Switch Pro Controller]]. I am also one of the only people who would enjoy seeing [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Optimus_Prime_%28G1%29 Optimus Prime] added to ''Smash''. Yes, the chance of him being in ''Smash'' is pretty much impossible (you thought [[Ridley]] was too big). Nevertheless, I thought of Optimus's whole moveset, as well as movesets for several other characters. [[User:John3637881/Character concepts|You can view my character ideas here]].
My most-wanted character for ''Smash'' is [[Slippy]] from ''Star Fox''. I'm not particularly serious about this and only want him in the game as a funny meme character, but at this point they have included most of the iconic video game characters to the roster and Nintendo would not ever feasibly add any other character I might want.

'''Notes:''' I am only accepting friend requests from people I know in real life. Don't take it personally, it's the way I am online.
 
==My opinions on the ''Smash'' games==
===''Smash 64''===
''Smash 64'' is ironically the last game in the series that I got to play. It's a decent game but the controls are very clunky, especially if you're like me and dislike forced tap jump.
 
===''Melee''===
I haven't played ''Melee'' in years, but I personally think the game is getting kind of stale because of the lack of character variety in tournaments and because of the dominance of only a few players. You know what to expect in every tournament these days. If you like the game though, that's fine. I just don't really get the elitism toward one ''Smash'' game or the other.
 
===''Brawl''===
I wish ''Brawl'' was a bit faster, had better character balance, and didn't have tripping. I think the game would be more well-received if it was played with 2-stock matches with Meta Knight and/or Ice Climbers banned. If ''SSB4'' can be played 2 stock, then so can ''Brawl''. Most people have moved on, although I still occasionally have fun with ''Brawl''.
 
As far as ''Brawl'' mods go, I enjoy playing non-competitive ''Project M''. What I really like about modding ''Brawl'' is that you can really do whatever you want. For example, by replacing music files, I have put in many ''EarthBound/Mother'' songs and many ''Ace Combat'' songs, among other things. My personal favorite is [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ6ABV_Q9qU Agnus Dei] from ''Ace Combat 4'', which I put on Final Destination. I am currently working on creating a ''Project M'' build that suits the tastes of me and my friends - or ''was'' anyway, before the technical stuff got me stuck.
 
===''Smash 4''===
''Smash 4'' is a good game. It's not as difficult on the hands as ''Melee'', but is still challenging. Some great things about ''Smash 4'' include the large roster, the general character balance, and omega stages (still wish there was "no hazards" mode, but what we have is good).
 
There are some problems though:
 
*Fox's and Ness's new voices are terrible. 
*The new characters outside of Shulk, Pac-Man, and Cloud just don't really grab me and I wouldn't really miss them if they were cut.
*Snake and Wolf were cut...
*The ''[[Kid Icarus]]'' and ''[[Star Fox]]'' [[Smash Taunt]]s are very annoying.
*I love me some Pac-Man, but I am disappointed by his moveset. It should have been based off of the ''Pac-Man World'' series.
*[[Smash Tour]] was a waste of development time. Also, I dislike Wii U Classic Mode. It is really random and boring to me. It's a shame all of the trophies couldn't be in the Wii U game...
*Where are [[Big Blue]] and [[Fourside]]? ([[New Pork City]] would have been good for 8 Player Smash, in any case)
*The new custom stage builder is great, but they should have kept the ability to just put down some basic blocks as well as the new stuff for times when you don't want to mess around with tracing or making the ledges grabable. Overall, I feel the stage builder was sort of a "one step forward, one step back" kind of situation. Another good way to put it is that it has everything good ''Brawl''{{'}}s stage builder lacked, but lacks everything good ''Brawl'''s stage builder has.
*Everything related to Bayonetta being in the game...
 
===''Ultimate''===
''Ultimate'' looks really good so far, and I'm happy with most of the changes, though I'm sure I'll find some nitpicky complaints about it down the line.
 
===='''Character wishlist'''====
Part of the reason the game looks so great is because most of the characters I wanted in the game have been added.

Hello, my name is John. I knew about Smash long ago with Melee, and got exposed to the series again with Brawl in 2009, but it was only until the spring of 2014 when my friends really got me into it.

My most-wanted character for Smash is Slippy from Star Fox. I'm not particularly serious about this and only want him in the game as a funny meme character, but at this point they have included most of the iconic video game characters to the roster and Nintendo would not ever feasibly add any other character I might want. For example, I who would enjoy seeing Optimus Prime in Smash. Yes, the chance of him being in Smash is pretty much impossible (you thought Ridley was too big). Nevertheless, I thought of Optimus's whole moveset, as well as movesets for several other characters. You can view my character ideas here.

Besides Smash, I play Victoria II and Hearts of Iron IV. I also enjoy the Ace Combat series.
