Hypothetic Astro Boy Moveset for Super Smash

Postby Existential Warrior » 16 years ago

Meant to say "Hypothetical" in title of topic.

Here is my hypothetical move set for Astro Boy with explanations... (GCN controller)

A - punch
A, A - punch, punch
A, A, A - punch, punch, kind

Right + A (same time)
- strong punch
Down + A - Astro Boy does a split and quickly makes fire cannons from his shoes burn his opponents
Down + A while in air Astro Boy uses fire canons on his arm to burn opponent

Up + B - finger laser
Down + B - Butt cannon spin. Good for multiple opponents. Like Link's spin attack but also get flying opponents and anyone in a short radius.

Double tap right + hold (run)- Astro Boy's run animation will be just be horizontal flying. Reference this:
He can fly straight as long as you keep holding right/left. You can cross platforms like this. Cannot initiate this while in air.

Double jump Now, here's what I want to do. I want to make Astro Boy have the ability to fly for 15 seconds before energy depletion. I want to allow another 15 seconds before he can do this again in order to gain energy. I want to give him more of an advantage in this than Kirby.

Defense/Offense/etc.
I want his defense to be somewhat low. Near-decent. However, I want his attack power to be above average (better than Captain Falcon).

As you can tell, he is good again multiple enemies due to his butt cannon, but it's best not to brawl out for long periods considering his semi-decent defense. However, Astro can easily evade opponent due to his flying, but one has to strategically fly and not abuse this remembering he has a 15 sec. period of rest in order to gain energy for flying once more.

Astro Boy can also shot lasers while flying*** Another advantage.

Still, not the best person to brawl one and one due to his low defense (little lower than Ness. 85%-95% is dangerous territory). However, if you know how to play with Astro, then you can literally own any player (fly + lazer, jump down and punch, side step behind and throw, etc... use all his abilities to dish out opponents).

Super Smash:
SUPER CANNON from Omega Factor

I tried to make this as balanced as possible. It's of course tentative, so you can improve upon it if you want. Super Smash is my favorite multiplayer game.

Also, they should have added some characters + worlds from Osama Tezuka's works in Kingdom Hearts. Actually, it would've made more sense to entirely replace them Final Fantasy characters with Tezuka's characters (e.g., Black Jack, Apollo's Song, MW, ASTRO BOY, and Phoenix).

I had the same idea! It would be so epic if they had Tezuka In Kingdom Hearts! Though I wouldn't replace the Final Fantasy characters. I say the more the merrier. Besides, there would be something pretty epic about Princess Sapphire or Astro Boy taking on Sephiroth XD

Or better yet, Phoenix vs. a weapon or summon from any of the Final Fantasies. Imagine Bahamut going against Phoenix with Astro Boy and Mickey Mouse watching in awe. :cool: :astro:

That reminds me, how come Megaman hasn't been inducted into the Super Smash games by now? He's totally worthy (more worthy than some of the characters in the games)

Either Capcom never approached Nintendo, or Nintendo never approached Capcom. Or Nintendo DID approach Capcom but Capcom wanted too much money for it.
