| == Ultimate’s Order ==
| |
|
| |
| Why can’t the roster on here match the order in the game? This question has been brought up a couple times and shot down without a proper discussion without a real decisive reason.
| |
|
| |
| If it’s because it would create an inconsistency, that’s not true. If it would, then the roster order for the original Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 64 would need to have its order changed. It currently has it match the order in the game, as should Ultimate’s. The other inconsistency is even though the lists are currently in the order of when each series joined Smash Bros, then Captain Falcon should be before Earthbound, which he’s currently not.
| |
|
| |
| Although we don’t have to follow the list in the game, but that’s only if the community decides if we don’t want to after a proper discussion. I would like to have a proper discussion on the matter, as a case like this is suppose to.
| |
|
| |
| May we please have Ultimate’s roster in the order that it is listed in the game? It would only be for this page. As well as a PROPER discussion for it? [[Special:Contributions/172.58.169.12|172.58.169.12]] 02:04, June 21, 2019 (EDT)

| :There was already a more proper discussion on this topic here[https://www.ssbwiki.com/Talk:List_of_Super_Smash_Bros._series_characters/Archive_3]. As for me, although I listed fighters by number on WikiBound, I don't agree with listing the fighters by number on SmashWiki, a more Smash Bros focused wiki. First of all it '''''can''''' create inconsistency, a prime example would be by what Serpent King and Toomai mentioned: Echo Fighters. Being listed as the same number as the fighter they were cloned from is confusing, let's take Daisy for example:
| |
| :*First, Daisy is a newcomer while Peach is a veteran, Daisy should be listed as #65 as she was announced after Inkling, but because she is Peach's Echo Fighter, she is #13 like Peach. This would be inconsistent as newcomers should be listed ''after'' veterans.
| |
| :*Second, let's say Daisy gets de-cloned in Smash 7 (or 6 if you count SSB4 as the same game) then she would now be fighter #65, then as a result, Ridley would be moved to 66, Simon 67, K rool 68, etc. This would mean everyone after Daisy would need to be re-identified and can cause confusion especially to those who've gotten used to the previous order.

| :Although I do agree EarthBound should be listed before F-Zero as Ness is listed before C.Falcon.

| |
| :'''Oppose''' The only reason Smash 64's character table is the way it is is because veterans and newcomers aren't a thing in that game, with it being the first Smash game and all. Thus, other games should keep consistency, and thus Ultimate's should be ordered by series.

| The Sakurai numbers are basically 100% arbitrary. (Yeah they're connected to character reveal order, but that itself is arbitrary - they could've chosen to tell us about Olimar before Diddy Kong on the Brawl website, and their numbers would change.) And even then, because of how clones/echoes work, the order can change between games, therefore making it impossible to be consistent. This makes them one of the worst possible orders to sort characters for any reason. [[SmashWiki is not official]], so we shouldn't lock ourselves into being inferior just because the game does.

| |
| :First off, I’d like to start off with an apology if I was not able to find a discussion on this topic before. Everything I COULD find seemed to have been shot down immediately. I do appreciate a discussion happening.
| |
|
| |
| :Smash Bros. for the 64 being the first should not be the deciding factor that it gets to be the exception to the rule, especially if this wiki is dead set on being consist throughout it. If Ultimate can’t be listed by number because it creates a inconsistency, then a change for the Smash for 64’s order is needed.
| |
|
| |
| :It wouldn’t matter if echo fighters were to be rearranged in a future installment as it would only effect Ultimate’s page template as it only applies to such. If the 6th installment had Daisy listed with a proper number, then it would only change the order for the 5th’s page and leaving Ultimate’s untouched.
| |
|
| |
| :Why does it matter if the numbered order doesn’t actually match up with characters’ deputes? It was already said that this wiki is not official, so I don’t see how that would create an inconsistency or problem. Also, if one is fine listening it themselves this way on a different wiki, why wouldn’t they be fine doing also on here? If it’s the echo fighters, then I already explained why that WOULDN’T make an inconsistency, and wouldn’t matter if it did. Same goes for the order of the stages.

| ::The difference between WikiBound and SmashWiki is that WikiBound is an EarthBound focused wiki, not a Smash Bros Wiki, and the main reason a Smash Bros page exists on there is because of EarthBound representation, same goes with others like Bulbapedia or Super Mario Wiki. If the order changes between games then it won't affect WikiBound much because its not a Smash Bros wiki and consistency doesn't matter much on there. SmashWiki, however, is a wiki focused on Smash Bros and consistency is more important on here because Smash is the main focus. If the order changes in a later installment then the listing here would be incorrect if we leave it the same, and it will cause confusion. Also in the past we've always listed fighters by series as it makes it more organized and easier to locate a fighter, and then changing the order here would cause confusion and make the characters out of order: Let's say someone browsing this page wants to look up Rosalina then its easier to find her when she's grouped with Mario characters, but if she's listed by number then they'll have to search through a big pile of fighters to find her. Sure they can use the search bar but it makes it more convenient for them to just click on her portrait. If the order eventually changes then it's much harder to rearrange 80+ fighters compares to 12. Even though Smash 64 lists the fighters the way they are in game, they are still grouped by series as the only 2 franchises with more than 1 fighter (Mario and Pokemon) have the fighters in the same spot. There was no real valid reasons to why we should list fighters this way besides it being the "official listing", whereas people have given actual reasons to why we shouldn't.[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: MK64ToadCSP.jpg|20px ]] 11:20, June 21, 2019 (EDT)

| :::But there are already inconsistencies which makes no sense as that what the main basis for these reasons why we shouldn’t. 64, Captain Falcon, and third-party are all inconsistencies right now. Plus, because I have been playing Ultimate since it came out, I personally find it much easier to find the characters when ordered the same way as Ultimate. It shouldn’t be a problem for those who play Ultimate. If you wanted info on Rosalina, you can just use the search bar. Same goes for the stages. (Which is not what I am getting at) Forgive me for saying so, but I feel the claim of that it would be inconsistent is more of not wanting to change it for the sake of not wanting change. Before dismissing Ultimate’s order due to the possibly of an inconsistency, please fix the inconsistencies of 64’s roster, as well as the placement of Captain Falcon and the third-party characters so that claim, if wished to be used, is more valid.

| ::::I think it’s fine as is honestly. None of the things you listed are broken per say.
| |
| :::*While Cap is numbered after Ness is in Ultimate, everything else F-Zero is listed before Earthbound, from the stages being before Earthbound, to the sound test listing F-Zero before Earthbound, to every previous game listing Captain Falcon before Ness. I don’t know why Captain Falcon is numbered after Ness, but a lot of other F-Zero content is still listed before Earthbound content, especially in past games.
| |
| :::*64’s roster table is inconsistent when compared to the other games, but that’s because it’s the first game. It doesn’t need a veterans and newcomers table because it’s the first game. I think it’s fine as is, especially since every other game except Brawl uses a giant clusterf*ck of characters put together in random places.
| |
| :::*The third parties in general got listed last in Smash 4 and Brawl. They aren’t really anymore in Ultimate, but it’s consistent with two other games in the series. [[User:Lou Cena|Lou Cena]] ([[User talk:Lou Cena|talk]]) 13:16, June 21, 2019 (EDT)
| |
| ::::: I will admit I did not know that about F-Zero, but that doesn’t change the inconsistency with 64 or third-parties. Snake and Sonic should be before Villager with PAC-Man afterwards as that is when their series joined. Ken should also be in front of Inkling for the same reason. Being the first is not a viable reason to create an inconsistency. If 64 can, then so can Ultimate. If Ultimate can’t, then neither can 64. You guys want “consistency” on this wiki, but keep making “exceptions” for them. I can’t understand that reasoning. If none of them are consistent, it technically would make them consistent. The reasons previously stated, of which I already said my pieces on, do not make sense with the basis of supposed “consistency”. Do you WANT consistency on this wiki, or not? I do not understand with any of your conflicting examples and reasoning. [[Special:Contributions/172.58.169.12|172.58.169.12]] 13:34, June 21, 2019 (EDT)

| :I thought those kind of actions could only be preformed AFTER an agreement had been reached? Regardless, what about third-parties? If third-parties are suppose to be listed last, then they have to be listed after the Mii Fighters for both WiiU3DS and Ultimate as Mii Fighters are FIRST-party. I still do not see what is “wrong” or “confusing” or “inconsistent” with having Ultimate’s page match the game’s, like 64’s before you just changed it (BEFORE any agreement was reached). Why can’t we recreate the lists from the games on here? It honestly WOULD make the most sense. There’s no real reason not to. Why does listing them by “series introduced” make any more sense than their actual orders? [[Special:Contributions/172.58.169.12|172.58.169.12]] 19:05, June 21, 2019 (EDT)

| ::::If you read my earlier post, I mentioned how Echo Fighters can disrupt the order if the next game declones them as they are listed as the same number as who they were cloned from, and newcomers should not be listed in same place as veterans. The numbers have no real significance besides the marketing hype of all veterans returning, if they actually had significance such as unlock order then that's different. Listing them by series is not only consistant but makes the list more organized, whereas the number based order is just confusing and out of order, especially the Echo Fighter dilemma.[[User: supatoad64|<span style="color:blue;"> '''SupaToad64''' </span>]] [[ Image: MK64ToadCSP.jpg|20px ]] 00:09, June 22, 2019 (EDT)

| :::::If you read MY earlier post, I explained why that wouldn’t matter. If echos become regular fighter later, it won’t effect Ultimate’s character roster template.

| Quite frankly, we've used our own listing for the character rosters from the very beginning - we never did match up with 64's, Melee's, or Brawl's, we didn't do it with Smash 4 either, and, in fact, [[#Order by Smash Debut|this topic has been discussed before]] for this particular table. We don't ''need'' for it to match up with what the game says, since we already have consistency with ourselves.

| ::The thing about the way the games listing is that aside from 64, the orders were all hot garbage. Melee’s was asymmetrical, Brawl’s sorted them vertically, Smash 4’s isn’t even consistent across versions (Shulk is placed before 3rd parties in Wii U, but with them in 3ds), and Ultimate sorts them by an arbitrary debut order that would have been decent if Echo Fighters didn’t exist. I thought that you wanted the 64 table to be consistent. It’s not that you’re an IP; far from it. Until I started editing here as an IP (before making this account to edit protected pages), I actually got 2 proposals accepted. The problem isn’t being an IP; it’s the fact that you were insisting that we needed consistency and then complaining when an admin does what you ask.
| |
| ::That’s not to say you’re entirely wrong; far from it. I absolutely agree with you that “Smashwiki is not official” is a weak argument in most cases where I’ve seen it. I still agree that was a terrible reason to keep an ugly, confusing, and unofficial symbol for miscellaneous content for theoretical circumstances that could still happen if we kept the current one (I made [[User:Lou Cena/Forum:Changing the miscellaneous symbol|a draft]] if you want to read it, because that symbol is part of why I even started editing here.) However, when the official orders are complete garbage, a series sort will work better. Before mentioning 3rd parties again, we sort them last because previous games sorted them last. Even Sonic’s appearance in Smash 4 treated him the exact same way as Mega Man and Pac Man, despite Sonic being a veteran. Ultimate is the first case of them not being last. If we ever get a new smash game and 3rd parties are not sorted last again, then we should probably move them to their actual series debut.
| |
| ::One last thing: actual discussion isn’t truly necessary when we have a unanimous agreement. Your suggestion to either make 64’s table consistent or change the other ones was fairly unanimous, so it was passed. Actual discussion would have been a waste of time.

But, is it REALLY not possible for Ultimate, and 64, to have it in THEIR roster order? It didn’t seem to be a problem for 64 until I brought up the inconsistency. Which was changed before THIS discussion was over, which what made me asked about being an IP. Is it just not possible to even consider the possibility of just THOSE two installments following the order of their rosters? My main problem was that 64 being first made it exempt from inconsistency which was apparently somehow preventing Ultimate’s numbers from also be an “exception”.[[Special:Contributions/172.58.175.155|172.58.175.155]] 09:31, June 22, 2019 (EDT)

| ::::Sometimes, something changes to break consistency without discussion and nobody notices; the SSB64 character table was one of these things, so I fixed it as soon as it was pointed out. I guess it's "cool" and "neat" to have it match the character selection screen but those aren't very good reasons to be inconsistent.
| |
| ::::All across the rest of the wiki, we universally use two orders for things: either alphabetically, or by series. These orders are quite good to sort things by because they are fairly intuitive and used across the majority of the games. By contrast, the Sakurai numbers are harder to use (e.g. it takes more effort to find a character because the subgroups are fewer and larger) and do not have any leniency within subgroups (e.g. with series sort, we could put Peach or Bowser first and there'd be enough precedent for either to make sense).

| == Incorrect placement of several fighters ==
| |
|
| |
| As far as I can gather:
| |
|
| |
| The fighters on this table are ordered within their ''Smash''-designated "universes" by fighter number, and said universes are ordered by the fighter number of the first fighter of that universe to join ''Smash'' (and then the universes are separated into first-party and third-party sections).
| |
|
| |
| A few fighters on this table break this order. I briefly considered fixing them myself, but since this is such an important table I'd like to get confirmation first. First of all, Yoshi is listed right after the ''Mario'' fighters when, as fighter #5, he should be listed after Zero Suit Samus as the only playable fighter of his "universe" (always was strange to me that ''Smash'' disconnects him from ''Mario'' so hard, but I digress). Secondly, Capt. Falcon, as the first and only playable member of the F-Zero universe, should come after Ness and Lucas since his number is #11 and Ness' is #10. Finally, Dark Pit should be listed directly after Pit as #28ε, without Palutena, who is all the way down at #54, in between them. Again, can someone give me the go-ahead to fix these problems, or tell me why I'm wrong? Thanks.

| ::Well, my bad for not researching this further. Sorry about that. But I'm still not completely convinced on Dark Pit being placed after Palutena. Unlike some other clones, the Pits are pretty much always next to each other in promotional material.

| Recently, a couple fighters were shuffled around, namely Ganondorf/Young Link, Mewtwo/Pichu, Robin/Lucina, and Little Mac/Wii Fit Trainer. The former two, I can sort of agree with since this lets Young Link be next to Toon Link and Mewtwo was developed before Pichu, but the latter two are questionable. I think the reasoning behind them is that Little Mac was an assist trophy in Brawl and Lucina was unlockable in her debut appearance. However, Wii Fit Trainer was revealed months before Little Mac, and even the boxing ring stage specifically was shown without any Punch Out references prior to his reveal. For Lucina, she was revealed before Robin in both Smash 4 and Ultimate, and her SSB4 trophy and Mario Maker costumes are both listed before Robin's. Yes, she was unlockable, but she's also the only first party unlockable character to ever be revealed before launch before keeping characters secret stopped being a thing. It's not a big deal, but I would like Lucina/Robin and Wii Fit Trainer/Little Mac to be swapped back. [[Special:Contributions/72.219.72.215|72.219.72.215]] 16:13, April 13, 2021 (EDT)

| == Adding Game Icon of the Veteran's Playable Debut Next to Their Name ==
| |

| I think veterans should have the icon of their debut Smash game next to their name like the stage tables. It provides a little indicator as to what game they were added in before for those who don't know what game they originated from or why they're a veteran. It also adds a bit of visual flare to the table in addition to their render and series symbol. What are your thoughts about it?

| :It's rather unnecessary tbh. If people want to know which game a character debut, they would find it on their respective character pages. What game a character initially debut in has nothing to do with why they are in ''Ultimate''.

| I vehemently oppose this change. Among other reasons, the most crucial one is that stages change very little from game to game beyond graphical updates whereas characters often change a great deal. Indicating that Jungle Japes is a Melee stage is very different in practice to indicating that Bowser is a Melee character.
