You know, when you look at it, it the Ness vs. Lucas thing really depends on wether you like speed or power better. I like speed, which is why I like Ness and Toon Link better than Lucas and Link. And there is a diffrence between being a coward and being a pacifist. Lucas is obviously a coward, not a pacifist. Yes, he does improve over the game, but at the beginnin, he's a total whimp, and totally deserved to be turned into a throphy.
I just wanted to say that I've always wanted to see (properly done, mind you) much darker version of EarthBound, either as a book, or game, or even a movie, which has, in addition to other much more serious elements, Ness and Paula trapped in a government laboratory determined to analyze the source of their psi-powers.
As cliche as it sounds, I think it could really work.
like a slower, faster version of Ness
dunno if anyone else quoted this... but its all that i had the will to read to.
i dont even have to make a lame analogy for this one...
eh...Lucas has one undeniable thing on Ness that no one can argue...
His PK thunder RAPES smash balls. It makes it so easy to snag a final smash that it's not funny.

Hey, I'm working on an Earthbound quest in ZC. If you want any ideas incorporated into it, PM me.

No, NO! I object wholeheartedly! Those of us who were born in the 80s had to suffer a nonstop onslaught of that particular cliche. It seemed like every other kid's show/movie featured it in some way or another - either someone would get powers, or there'd be an alien, and government scientists would want to catch/study them. ET, the Secret of NIMH, the Secret World of Alex Mack... Pretty sure there was at least an episode or two of Rescue Rangers like that... and Ducktales... and that's just scratching the surface.
Hey, I think it's a good idea. Although it doesn't have to be the government. Maybe and arch nemisis searching for ultimate power...
I selected Pit and Marth, though I should point out that I'm not all that good at SSB.
