Take 2

CRASH BANDICOOT
YOU KNOW YOU LOVE HIM
DONT DENY IT
OH COME ON

Representation - Crash represents his series, duh. Uh, first game was received well, with ratings ranging from 7/10 to 9/10 (Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_(video_game)#Reception). Second game was also well received, sometimes even better than the first game. On average it received about an 8/10 (Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_(video_game)#Reception). Third game also had great reviews... know what you can look for yourself: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot_3:_Warped#Reception. The Wrath of Cortex was received with mixed reviews, some liking it others not as much. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Bandicoot:_The_Wrath_of_Cortex#Reception. Twinsanity was also met with mixed reviews...: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Twinsanity#Reception. This isn't including the spin-off games and the newer games, if you're curious you can wikipedia it yourself (seriously, it takes like, 5 seconds to do it).

Uniqueness: Crash is a human-like marsupial, who utilizes his famed spin attack to attack his foes. He is also helped by the sprit of a witch doctor sealed in a mask, and he fights the evil doctor cortex. Crash also uses a bazooka. And jet packs. And he has a cooler racing game than Mario Kart.

Popularity: He has a big fanbase. Kinda like Mario and Sonic, except that Crash isn't getting treated as nicely as the other before-mentioned.

Viability: cyberwolf made a sprite sheet of Crash and said we could use it. It'd require edits, but it isn't too bad, y'know? Crash would fit in well. I mean, you have other human like animals such as Sonic and Fox, so...


NEWCOMER: MOVESET [wip]


Neutral Special - Spin Attack
Crash spins wildly. Deals multiple hits of damage to opponents. While Crash is spinning, if a direction is pressed (left or right) Crash will spin in that direction. The special button can be pressed repeatedly to make the attack last a little longer. If used in-air, it’ll slow Crash’s fall briefly; can also be used in-air for horizontal recovery.
Origin: Crash’s signature move. ‘nuff said.

Side Special - Polar Ride
Crash hops onto Polar the polar bear and rushes forwards. Can be turned around and can rush around the other way. After a few seconds, Polar will buck Crash off (Crash can also jump off beforehand). Polar then wanders around the stage, and can be attacked or if he so desires he can attack opponents. Polar will eventually find his way off stage or he can also be knocked off. After this happens Crash can use this move again (he can also use it again if the side special button is used right next to Polar).
Origin: Crash Bandicoot 2, Crash Bash (Polar Panic levels, specifically)

Up Special - Pogo Stick
Crash pulls out his pogo stick and jumps upwards for decent vertical recovery. If used right above an opponent it works like a meteor smash.
Origin: Crash Bash (Pogo painter levels, specifically)

Down Special - Wumpa Bazooka
Crash pulls out his Wumpa Bazooka. He can aim it up, down, and straight forwards. Pressing the special button will have Crash fire a wumpa fruit projectile. Pressing the down special button again will have Crash put the bazooka away. The wumpa fruit deal low damage and knockback, though travel rather quickly.
Origin: Crash Bandicoot WARPED!

Final Smash - Triple Aku Aku
Crash obtains a golden Aku Aku mask on his face, thus making him invunerable and increasing his speed slightly. All he has to do is ram into opponent to damage them, though he can also perform all his other moves as well (with all of them getting a slight power boost). Lasts for about as long as Wario Man.
Origin: Crash Bandicoot 1

Mario, Sonic, and Crash. The old system rivalry.
Needs to be done.

[PartisanDaw]

Nothing much to say,except yes.

[danick]

I'm sure he will appear
and kratos to to represent the sony

[-Dr.MarioX-]

He's a whatever choice for me. I don't care if he's in or not. I feel like I've just seen too many 'eh' games for him. Then again, I have for Sonic too...

[falcon8r]

I am not opposed to having Crash.

[Excalibur]

Will ZI's sprite be used if he allows it?

[-Dr.MarioX-]

What does CyberWolf's look like?

Never been on a Nintendo console. No Kraytoes pleese.

9 yes, 1 no.

THE FORUM HAS SPOKEN

[gigapichu]

DON'T WORRY GUYS, IM TRYIN TO FIGHT THE BIAS AND GET HIM IN. IMMA GOIN.

[SmashKing201]

I don't mind Crash, but it depends on the roster. Meaning if he gets in, who is he most-likely to replace?

NOTE
I have'nt voted yet

[StayPuft]

IDK who he would replace.

But the more I'm thinking about it the more I'm wanting a Mario vs. Sonic vs. Crash free-for-all on final destination.

[-Dr.MarioX-]

gigapichu, I don't think there's anyone on here that doesn't want him in...

I'd have Mario vs Sonic vs Crash vs ...

[DGN]

It's Megaman, isn't it?
Don't lie.

Eh. Personally I'd replace Sub-Zero. Since he doesn't really fit that much. But eh. Whatevs.

I'd have to agree with this.

Ryu and Chun-Li are fine, as they are still semi-cartoonish to where they can fit in the atmosphere.

Sub-Zero, though....is just too dark and gritty. And it wouldn't be a MK character without Fatalities, which I doubt you're going to give him.

[SmashKing201]

Personally, I would have prefer Scorpion over Sub-Zero. In my opinion, I don't think dumming down a MK rep a bit would do much harm to the character's image.

I don't mind Crash, it just depends on who he replaces. If it is another 3rd party that is not so important, then fine by me. But I would have to be against it if he was to replace a worthy Nintendo character.

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.

The game did well and was praised, but the biggest complaint for it was the dummed down gore and killings, which fans of the series were so used to.

Pretty much, MK isn't MK without excess gore and brutal Fatalities. That's like taking away Sonic's speed in his games (which has been done on a few occasions, and all times, there were major complaints).

Well, you see, while Mega Man IS huge, he and Capcom weren't part of the console wars that took place during the 90s.

Basically, it was Nintendo with Mario and the SNES/N64, Sega with Sonic and the Saturn/Dreamcast, and Sony with Crash Bandicoot and the Playstation; all three were fighting for superiority in the gaming market.

So yeah. Basically if we had all three of the characters we'd bring representation to the console wars of the 90s. Which would be awesome. I don't think there was a single person who didn't want to see them go head-to-head back in the day.

[-Dr.MarioX-]

Fatality is Final Smash all they way. Push a different special move and you get a different Fatality. Subz comes from Mortal Kombat. It may seem dark and gritty, but the game overall is a bit funny, isn't it? We also plan to make Sub-Zero's hits have blood. We even have an MK stage planned to make you feel like your in the game.
