... Please tell me you're joking.
Everyone and their mother knows and adores Crono... Perhaps you're hanging around the wrong crowd, like, kids how play CoD and stuff...
Ewwwwwwww, CoD... Do they also listen to Skrillex? Ewwwwwwwwww... *cough* Daft Punk, Veela, Televiser, PegBoard Nerds *cough* way better EDM artists than Skrillex *cough* *cough*
Anyway, seriously, I've asked numerous people if they liked the idea of Crono and Marx being in the game and most people have said;
"OMFG SIDBFUIBWEBRUI CRONO, YES!!!! I LOVE CHRONO TRIGGER, PLEASE ADD CRONO NINTENDO!!!"
"And Marx scared the shit out of me as a kid, he would be an awesome fourth Kirby character..."
Again, multiple people have given me a response very similar to this. So I think the majority of people are on my side when it comes to this.
I'd also like to state I completely resent you saying he's just a trophy character... Allow me to elaborate on this.
Where to begin... Let's talk about his first appearance. The first you see is his cute little Kirby-like form. He basically tells you "Hey, go save the world..." I haven't played the game in a long time, get off my back about correct dialogue. But anyway, that's basically what he tells you. He gives you a task, and you, the hero, must see it through for the good of the World/Galaxy. So, you go around doing things and stuff on abunch of different planets, then you finally meet Nova. So... You just carry out the task as kindly asked and save the world, right? Nope. Crazy plot twist, well, crazy for a little kids game at least, it turns out the very person who sent you on this journey is actually a deceitful, terrible, power hungry psychopath. Then he reveals his true form... Now, I'm sure you're all probably thinking; "Oh, well there are creepier Kirby bosses..." well, it's all opinion based, but I think we can agree that Marx is up there in the top 3 weirdist Kirby bosses. But you have to realize what his design is based off of... If you don't know already, it's based of a cradle toy, or whatever you want to call it, y'know, something you hang above a cradle... It's something so innocent, attached to something that's purpose is to be a bed to something even more innocent. Except Marx is the complete opposite of innocent. He made you do all of his dirty work, then tries to kill you... Yeah, I think we can all agree that's kind of eerie... He was the only Kirby villian with a personality, and a good one at that. Oh, and it doesn't end there. Remember the end of the final boss battle in Super Star Ultra? Yeah... REALLY unexpected for a Nintendo game that isn't from the 90's... *cough* Earth Bound *cough*
You see my point, yes? He's quite the bad ass really, and he has so much potential as a good character in SSB4 competitively, as I've already explained. Also, there were only 3 characters from the Kirby franchise in Brawl, so it does have one more open spot... Why not Marx? The only character worth mentioning as competition is Prince Fluff. But let's face it, not that many people liked Epic Yarn. While it was innovative, I can't say I blame them. And what would his moves even be? Uhh... B, yarn whip. B side, yarn whip. Final Smash, epic yarn whip... You realize how limited his options are, yes? Marx is such a recognizable character amoungst Nintendo fans, and the only villian in any of the Kirby games that could be a playable character besides DeDeDe. But again, he's more of a comedic relief anti-hero than a villian.
The conclusion: I'm a complete Marx fanboy... I want him in the next game. Sue me for having an opinion, why don't you? <;3
