Imagine getting into Fire Emblem through Three Houses then getting a bunch of shit because you wanted/got the character from the specific game you are familiar with in Smash.

That must be really depressing. I got into FE through Awakening, and was hyped for Robin & Lucina in 4.
Back then, a new FE rep was to be expected, and everyone was more open to it. Now everyone is pissed about the amount in Smash. Honestly, if you exclude Echo Fighters and Corrin, I feel the aeries is represented well, having a character from each era. (So 5 characters.)
I feel it's time Xenoblade got another rep too. Like FE, that series has a different cast each game. So people who got into the series with 2 probably want a character from that game in too.

I just think representation of a series is less popularity and more appealing to...
...as many fans as possible regardless of where they got into the series. That's why I think Richter getting in is so cool. There are plenty of Catlevania fans that prefer him as a character over Simon, so to have him in must be a dream for some of them.
Meanwhile, there are Simon fans who aren't familiar with Richter's games who are just happy with Simon's inclusion.

I just think people don't really think about this. If there was not at least one Awakening character in the next Smash, I'd personally be upset.
I have no connection to Marth or Roy. I didn't start the series playing their games. I played the remake of Marth's game and didn't like it as much. So I prefer to use the characters from the games I am familiar with.

How hard is this to understand?
I spent more time on this than I intended to, so I'm just gonna stop now. I think I made my point. I was just typing out my thoughts... I don't really make posts on Twitter that much. I mainly just keep to myself and like/RT other posts and comment on occasion.
Just noticed a typo in the 2nd tweet of this thread, uhh...
