Marth will be retuning as a playable character in the next installments of the Super Smash Bros. series releasing on Wii U and 3DS in 2014.
This information comes from the official Super Smash Bros. site where Marth was shown in several screenshots and was given his own character profile. While hard to tell from these screens, it appears as though Marth will be keeping several of his moves from the previous Smash Bros. games, most notably his counter attack.
He looks like a girl in that picture.
On a semi-related note, has anyone else seen the online documentary 'The Smash Brothers'? It concerns the competitive Smash scene in the USA. It was really very engrossing. I enjoyed it so much I watched all 9 parts in one day. I highly recommend it.Yep.
I can't play Smash games and yet i still enjoyed it. Basically spend my entire workday watching it.
I'm kinda really confused by this choice... I was really banking on "Marth" from awakening to join the Smash Bros. family. In addition to Chrom... who I'm not counting out just yet.. because we still have that other character from the series to wait on. So Chrom being in the game COULD still happen. I'd be very surprised if it didn't actually, but we are dealing with Nintendo here... All this being said, those two characters were extremely interesting in the last game of the Fire Emblem series. (My first game of the series) It just makes sense to include the latest characters of a game to represent the franchise. They SHOULD be in these games. It's almost like they don't trust in their product enough or something, and I can't understand why. Awakening sold wonderfully, and is a system seller in my opinion, just as much as Pokemon or Mario.
