Posted 15 Jul 2014 I think the bias towards edginess might just be in the reveal trailers. If you scroll closer to the bottom of the Smash Bros. page it gets more colorful and whimsical. The reveals tend to be of edgy characters as of late, but then there have been ones for Palutena and Rosalina/Luma and Megaman. I think it's pretty balanced, just not lately.

Posted 18 Jul 2014 I never knew until the trailer either. I get the impression it might just be something they applied for the sake of not having them named "avatar." Like how Link's name really isn't that important to the character either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 22 Jul 2014 Miyamoto said the name Link was chosen because he represents a "link" to the player. idk if Robin represents birds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
