SmashWiki is not speculative

Hi, I'm here to inform you that speculation does not belong on the Wiki. If something "may be" or "possibly is", it does not belong. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 13:13, 7 September 2012 (EDT)

Alright, so I can't state that the Falcon Punch/Kick "seems to be" inspired by the Rider Punch/Kick, but can I put in trivia that the techniques are "coincidentally similar", as they are?

An example of both techniques are shown in this video from 1:08-1:15. The example is from Kamen Rider Black, while not the earliest use of them, it still predates Smash 64 by a wide margin. 75.142.97.117 20:19, 7 September 2012 (EDT)
"Coincidentally similar" isn't good enough. Many things in Smash can look/sound similar to something else in another source, and unless it's something noted by the majority (such as Super Jump Punch and Shoryuken), it's not relevant to mention. For the videos you linked, I would also contend the only similarity they have are being a powerful punch/kick and the user shouting "X Punch/Kick!" (both of which are not unique concepts).
For one more thing, when someone posts on your talk page, respond to their comment here, rather than responding on theirs. It keeps the discussion in one place and makes it more organised/easier to follow. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 20:30, 7 September 2012 (EDT)
