All Smash 3DS Star Fox Trophies
YouTube user SuperIanGamerHD posted a video containing spin-around profiles of (supposedly) all trophies in Smash Bros for the 3DS. I've jumped the video ahead to the Star Fox section. You can see Fox, Wolf, Falco, and, of course, Krystal. It looks like Krystal's is the Brawl trophy with a different pose.

You know, it was kind of foolish to expect more than a trophy in the initial release. While, yes Krystal has a strong following of fans, well unfortunately Adolf Hitler has one too, and he’s been in more games than she has. We have to realize that Star Fox fans, dedicated Star Fox fans, aren’t very numerous at all. Pacman turned 30 awhile back and he got lots of fanfare. How much did Star Fox get? I won’t rule out her appearing in a DLC, but only a fool would have believed she would appear as more than a trophy in n the main game.
like I said earlier in some post, krystal might ending up in being a asst. trophy/display trophy, probably be a paid dlc character.
@the falcon
what’s your problem?
@guitarplayer747
What’s my problem? What’s your problem?
I’m just saying realistically we couldn’t have expected it, even from the beginning. Just because someone has a lot of fans doesn’t mean they get invited to the party. The real thing we have to look at is whether or not the people who appreciate the other games also appreciate her. Sure, we Krystal fans have a wide range of tastes, and we have appreciation for other characters, but most of the people who are fans of the other characters don’t necessarily like Krystal. Basically, it’s furries verses the world, buddy.
@the Falcon
I think he’s probably concerned about your references to Adolf Hitler in your argument, and referring to a significant percentage of the site as ‘fools’.
Krystal had as much chance as many of the other characters. It came down to what Sakurai thought was best. Nothing more, nothing less.
I probably worded it wrong. But I honestly didn’t think she did. Don’t get me wrong, she is my favorite video game character, but Sakurai has to appease the general population. My mentioning of Hitler was to say that the ones that have been in more games also tend to get in easier but in some cases i doesn’t help. I apologize for writing it. I was under the influence of alcohol when I did.
@the Falcon
yes you did worded it out wrong. I didn’t have my hopes up for krystal in smash either and expected the worst, and I am perfectly fine with that. But calling people (fans from this site) foolish was uncalled for. No hard feelings though
@Mr. Krystal
I agree with you, she does have a much chance as other characters.She has so much potential with that staff. But it is totally up to the director and I am sure this won’t be the last smash brothers. Also I Can’t wait to try out the Wii U orbital gate stage and see what Sakurai has in store for star fox fans like myself.
Yeah, and how many fans do ya think the Wiifit Trainer had? Sure I bet people where like “Golly, I sure do wish they’d put the Wiifit Trainer in there, that would be swell!” And then there’s the flippin’ Duck Hunt dog. Now I’ll admit that came out of nowhere, but honestly doesn’t everyone HATE that damn dog? I know I did… he had the cheek to laugh at me when I missed, the nerve of him! Maybe it was Nintendo’s way of letting us whoop his @$$ for all those years of torment he put us though! But all this is just my lowly opinion, and thats coming from the guy who thinks Pacman’s addition is pretty stupid, You want Pacman? Then choose Yellow Kirby THERE YA GO! They both eat/swallow about everything in front of them! OHHH and dont get me started on how Sakurai said NO CLONES, then he gives us Dr. Mario, Toon Link (which is in my opinion the worst version of Link ever) like 5 Fire Emblem characters in which save for that one with a book, are basically the same type just with a diff sex and hair lengths
^continued *accidentally hit post
…and the one that really gets my blood boiling is Dark pit, I mean hell they Put Olimar and Alf in the same roster slot as a diff costume and just look at Bower Jr, ALL of the Koopalings in on slot. Why in the blue hell didnt they just do that with Pitt and Dr. Mario and even Samus and Zelda Sheik instead of making 4 roster slots out of what would have been just two? Also where is the love for Star Fox? I mean come on not only did we not get Krystal… but they took Wolf away from us, at least he was alittle less of a clone of Fox than Falco was!
Ok I’m done now

@all
Alright, settle down you guys. We’re all disappointed, but there’s nothing we can do at this point. There are still chances for Wii U stuff and DLC, to say nothing of mods. But even if not, it’s really not the end of the world. Smash Bros. is not a popularity contest and it never has been, in spite of what many of you think.
Take a deep breath, let it out. Now, can we be happy that there’s a new Star Fox on the horizon and the first Smash Bros game in 6 years is out? We all would have liked to see Krystal playable, but let’s not rain on other fans’ parade just because we were not catered to. Let’s be happy for them.
Also, please don’t think Sakurai is a bad person for making the choices he does. He has several million people yelling at him daily telling him to ‘pick this’ or ‘do that’. He is literally doing permanent damage to his body to make these games for us, because of how much sheer work there is to do. We should be grateful that he hasn’t outright quit already.
Ya know, that makes me wonder… about the new upcoming StarFox game. I wonder what the chances are that they put Krystal in that!? I mean Krystal was made by and property of Rare and Rare is owned by Microsoft. But even after the buyout, she still appeared in Assault and Command! I suppose if they at least put her in StarFox Wii U, then I could forgive her absence in Smash! Then again from what I’ve seen so far of StarFox U, it looks to be too gimmicky for my taste, Im not too much for motion controls really and the thing I hated most about Command was the touchscreen required gameplay, I just wanna use buttons dang-it!
@Fox_McCloudFF7
Don’t worry too much about it man, I am sure the full squad will be there. Whatever you heard about the game right now, it doesn’t matter. It is still way too early in terms of development. you worry too much lol. Anyways, my only wish is if they can make another star fox adventures, but that aint gonna happen. Also I have this crazy idea, I wouldn’t mind if Krystal became a villain in the new game since she has been affiliated a lot with star wolf, but of course fox wins her back somehow. Also I would love to see fay and Miyu in the squad.
@Fox_McCloudFF7
Rare did have Krystal and the Dinosaur Planet franchise to Nintendo in 2002 because they were bought by Microsoft. Kid in SFC, the story itself is non-cannon so the game for DS is not official sequel there. So the real sequel will be for Wii U.
(Correcting) sorry I meant ‘Rare did give’
@Fox_McCloudFF7
Lylatroid is correct. All characters and assets used for Nintendo-specific games (Donkey Kong series, Star Fox Adventures) were given exclusively to Nintendo during the buyout by Microsoft. It was part of the contract. Meanwhile, Microsoft got the other properties (Conker, Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie).
