Template talk:SSB4 character table

Separate Mii characters

I think that the three Mii types (Gunner, Swordfighter, Brawler) should be separated on the characters table. These are clearly three different characters, and though they should be in the same cell in the table to match Melee and Brawl's page (for characters like Sheik and Pokemon Trainer), there should be links to each of the three character types. The only way there now is to click on Mii Fighter and then navigate to the right type, which is an unnecessary extra click. Just my opinion. Rekameohs (talk) 01:12, 15 September 2014 (EDT)

They're grouped together on the official website and share an icon on the character select screen. It could go either way, really. Miles (talk) 01:19, 15 September 2014 (EDT)

Things would fit just as snugly if we separate them and they are indeed all unique from one another (I'm pretty sure none of them even share a move), another solution would be to somehow list the name of each individual fighter in small text under the Mii Fighter Title, but I'm leaning towards just flat-out separating them, even if they are all the same "character" Laikue (talk|contribs) 02:30, 15 September 2014 (EDT)

Mewtwo

Would it make more sense to just put an asterisk next to Mewtwo's name and then a note at the bottom stating the asterisk is for DLC? I feel like the table might look a little better that way. Master Zach (talk) 10:34, 24 October 2014 (EDT)

Italics would work better, actually (not just because we already did it, but because it would just be better). Rtzxy Smashing! 10:46, 24 October 2014 (EDT)

Since italics won't work should we try asterisks now? Master Zach (talk) 08:22, 25 October 2014 (EDT)

Italics would work. It just got removed because we might use them for another thing. I dunno about asterisks, because the wiki code puts a * as a bullet point. Sure, there's a way to go around it, but still, I dunno about that one. Aidan the Gamer 18:47, 25 October 2014 (EDT)

Duck Hunt

What happened to the Duck Hunt image? ZeldaStarfoxfan2164 (talk) is a never lover boy 23:49, 30 October 2014 (EDT)

Someone seems to have applied the speedy-delete template to it in such a way that the redirect doesn't work anymore. I'll just fix the links and delete the redirect. Toomai Glittershine The Incomprehensible 23:57, 30 October 2014 (EDT)

Here's an idea

We make two separate character table templates; one for Wii U, and one for 3DS. The 3DS one would be used for the 3DS version's page and have all its unlockables bolded, whereas the Wii U one would be for the Wii U version's page and have only its unlockables bolded.

Sure, it might be time consuming, but it's still a thought to throw out. Aidan the Gamer 09:46, 2 December 2014 (EST)

Or we could discuss this a little more, which would be a bit simpler to solve the issue with (have two icons instead of two templates or a bold/italic combo). Toomai Glittershine The Resolute 10:02, 2 December 2014 (EST)

Interesting. That's a very interesting setup, Toomai. Though...I don't know how well it would fit on the other pages. Aidan the Gamer 10:35, 2 December 2014 (EST)

Separate DLC characters

I think we should move Mewtwo and Lucas to their own section. Since they're planning on releasing at least one character from the ballot, that means we'll have three. They should be separated for easy access/viewing. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 22:09, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

Massive oppose. The DLC characters are an integral part of the full roster of the game and should not be separated. Miles (talk) 22:15, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

What about over here? Aidan, Master of Speed and Aura 22:26, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

What about it? Mewtwo and Lucas are both veterans and are appropriately sorted as such. Miles (talk) 22:28, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

What? Wait no, that's not what I meant. I meant make their own section on this table, like the difference between veterans and newcomers. Not their own template. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 22:30, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

That's not what I meant either. What I'm saying is, if Project M can have its own section for Mewtwo and Roy, then why can't Smash 4 do the same with Mewtwo and Lucas? Aidan, Master of Speed and Aura 22:32, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

That comparison does nothing for me. I'm still quite thoroughly opposed to us having PM character pages in the first place. Miles (talk) 22:45, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

...what does this have to do with PM characters having pages? Our point is, Mewtwo and Lucas now belong to a third category (it became a category when it applied to multiple characters), which needs to be distinct from the first two. There should be separation between them by headers. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe Nutta. 22:48, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

Oppose I think just noting that they're DLC will suffice. Berrenta (talk) 22:49, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

Better Lucas image

I'd be glad to add it once this is addressed. Miles (talk) 23:23, 1 April 2015 (EDT)

Per Laikue. I really care more about the orange background being gone than "suspiciously high resolution".--Meester Tweester (talk) 00:09, 13 April 2015 (EDT)
