You could say that there exist no flagship female legacy characters that aren't generically attractive, because being unattractive is unattractive. However, Zelda and Peach are dressed modestly, fittingly because they are princesses, but whatever, they're still dressed modestly. This shows that they don't have to be scantily clad in order to be likable playable characters. then zero suit samus then zero zero suit samus f*** everything up |  |  |  |  |
I knew you'd try that. She is clad in that sort of suit for the same reason gymnasts or swimmers are at the Olympics: So she can retain her full range of mobility (and on a side note, because it's a futuristic environment as well) . It wouldn't make sense to put her in a robe, or to a lesser degree jeans and a sweater, because she wouldn't be able to fully utilize her Chozo training, and she'd light them on fire with her rocket boots. It's not like the Zero Suit is the only thing she wears either. In Other M(?) she wears a military out fit. And why is she skinny and tone? Because she's naturally athletic. Even if she was naturally chubby because of genetics her taking care of her self keeps her thin and healthy. That's why people are outwardly attracted to fit people by the way, because they look healthy, and a health mate means healthy offspring, people do still retain animal instincts after all. So she isn't thin TO sexualize her, she is generally more attractive because she is healthy. So her design is based in both real logic and game logic. By the way, in her respective games none of the male characters make sexual jokes at her expense, and no female characters complain about her being too attractive, so the only one trying to make her a sexualized object is: You. Anyways Healthy=Attractive, that's coincidental. And honestly I'd prefer media to have healthy examples to people to look up than unhealthy examples. If they happen to be attractive because of that, well that's just a bonus. Preedit: Ninja'd but point remains.

I'll let it slide since that's a really insightful post but no more.

 "Pic of the day. Customize your characters in the Custom section. It sounded better to customize "characters" instead of "fighters," so that's what we went with. There are various ways to customize, but make sure you remember to set up the powers you're bringing with you before playing a round of Smash Run."

Still really really uncomfortable about equipment
The costume designs for the Mii Fighters pretty much all look brilliant though

They're just stickers. Also that guy has -50 atk and +68 def. Those huge a** numbers probably mean nothing. At best he deals like -.5 damage per 10 damage he deals or something.

Honestly I'd be fine with it. I was actually disappointed that I couldn't use stickers in versus, even as just a Special Brawl. I like games were you can pick a play style, then season it to taste. So if you were expecting to pull the rug, I'm the wrong guy.
