Description

Apparently he shined so bright, no one else really saw or took notice of him.


I'm very glad I still have a little bit of time to get some drawings down while school is here because I have Friday's off, until a few weeks that is. Luckily the next Newcomer made themselves known during this time, so I tried to get on that as quickly as time would allow me. Also, I'm glad my sister pointed this out to me but, the background color for each Newcomer is shown at the end of each reveal, so I was able to figure out the proper hue and everything-- though my guess was surprisingly close!


Anyhow, onto introducing this old face to everyone~ The next fellow to join the ranks of Smash Fighters is Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury!

If I had not be spoiled of the news last minute, I would have real screamed about him. While I have never played any games he appeared in personally, the King of Fighters titles are ones that are very close to my sister, and I had become acquainted with the guy from there. Terry's got one of those recognizable vibes on him as well, I can definitely understand how he was able to grab a spot on the roster.


After all, SNK games have a solid place in classic games, but I am not sure they are as highly-known as other series. Hence some people not knowing who Terry was, outside of a suspicion from a leaked namedrop. But that's alright, no one is able to know everything in the world, so we shouldn't beat each other so hard for that.


Anywho, seeing this guy after some long while got my sister nostalgic again, so she went to play KoF again and ended up hurting her fingers doing so. And on that note, my youngest brother is planning on forcing some of his friends to play the game as well, so they can get a taste of how the series is like.


As for me, I hardly have any time for anything right now, but I at least took my time in learning this big boy so I could do him the proper justice for this Challenge.

(After an entire year-plus of dealing with muscles, I should be able to handle him now, right?)


My only real issue with Terry was his cap, and so after scanning this lineart I did have to smush it down a bit because I realized I made it too high.

The rest of him was fairly easy to pick up, the hat being the only real source of any error I had for things like Terry's face looking different every time I drew him.


That aside, he's here, he's nice-looking, and ready to fill your ears with Engrish once November rolls in.


I never would've thought an SNK character would have a rep in Smash, but at this point anything really is possible. And now I have to be ready for not just one, but possible five extra people down the road. I do hope Mr. Sakurai continues to surprise us more, and get those breaks he truly deserves, of course. ( ^ -^)b


Here are some pages stuffed with Terry practice I did not too long ago, because it took be that long to grasp his (hat) design: [link]

Oh yes, I am well aware of that. I know I asked for "a surprise", but I guess I technically got what I asked for.


While I am on the "really do not want this Fighter at all" boat, it still won't stop me from enjoying the game. It's one Fighter, and not everything is going to revolve around my tastes, or that of anyone else for that matter.

I know right? This really leaves a lot more possibility, but I also hope Mr. Sakurai and the development team also get their well-deserved breaks.

I'm willing to wait for future Fighters, plus it'll just make that patience more worth it once they arrive.


Thank you very much!

Why Terry?

MewKwota In reply to Gameguy007 [2019-09-10 04:11:53 +0000 UTC]

Well, Terry has his place in video game history, particularly fighting game history, not to mention a recognizable icon of his time. It may help to look up what other fans may have to say about Terry for a more in-depth idea on the guy.

Otherwise if you want the more objective answer, you may just have to ask Mr. Sakurai for his decision in adding him to Smash.

I personally do not mind his inclusion, but if you do, that's all good too.
You aren't obligated to like Terry, or to get him, or play as him once he gets released.

I am not sure I have a proper answer to that. He appears to have an idea of what some fans are asking for, but at the same time I would strongle advise against bombarding his online posts with requests for characters. It's kinda unprofessional, if not just troublesome.

It's like a awkward maze where they need to bring a map if they
want to get out of here and find a character for what they want.

The only thing to contact them is to contact them at nintendo website: "contact us"; and / or send a letter.

They show a scene about more characters coming after showing a 5th character, hoping in november.Β 

Which character do you want as a DLC character?

I actually got every character I wanted last August. And by that, I mean I only ever wanted two characters, which were Simon and Chrom.

So I've been pretty content ever since, and have been casually enjoying everything else up to now.


I don't have any additional wants, and am just focusing on whoever my brothers may look forward to.

In the end, it's totally up to you whether or not a character clicks. Nothing wrong with that, as there are plenty other characters for you to choose from.

Hopefully he may have some appeal to you!

Fun Fact: Even while I was shocked to see him, I still kind of remembered both his name and Fatal Fury. I swear I never played or saw Fatal Fury, but somehow I know it's name....

MewKwota In reply to xxamyxsonicxx10 [2019-09-10 00:48:51 +0000 UTC]

I vaguely know of Fatal Fury because my sister played SNK games every so often, more specifically KoF which is more or less a crossover of several SNK titles, including Fatal Fury. So I had my familiarity of Terry and the other characters in his trailer from there.

Definitely an older face that not many folks would know so easily, especially with KoF being so niche-- at least to me it feel so. But that doesn't stop certain characters aside from Terry from being in Smash, so here he is!

MewKwota In reply to MLPMariolover [2019-09-10 00:51:14 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much!

I noticed they have a very similar body shape, at least when I draw them. The only difference I had between the two is that Terry has a noticeably longer torso than Richter, with a slight difference in the distribution of his waist too. Even with all these tough guys I've been learning to draw, I try my best to see how distinctly I can make them.

Because of course, while there will be similarities, not everyone character looks exactly the same. ( ^ ,^)b

It's really great to see ppl actually loving this character, and surprisingly you're one of them ^^

Tbh I never played any, expect KoF 14 on PS4 cuz it had a free demo, cool game but not as memorable as say Street Fighter, but I'm all ok with with Terry cuz seeing another fighting character joining is awesome

Also it'll be cool to see Ken and Terry as both resembles each other and both do shot fireballs soooooo yeah heheh ^^

Ah yeah~ It's as I've said to someone else, I actually know a good number of characters and series. I just don't talk about all of them as openly and often-- especially on the Internet-- as I do others that people may know me for drawing.

I personally never played the game Terry starred in, but I've watched him from the sides for a good amount of time, so I understand the relevancy of his character and position in video game history. I hope he turns out to be a fun character!

That's pretty much a good spot in which you might get more intrested instead of expecting and know what you'll get, having unexpected fighters is a very cool way, though sadly with the Smash community wanting what they wish it kinda ruin that feeling


Well if you tried Street Fighter before then you're gonna expect Terry at that level

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

MewKwota In reply to SarhanXG [2019-09-11 00:57:35 +0000 UTC]

That's unfortunately true. No matter who gets in, there are going to be people who disagree or don't care-- which is completely okay. What isn't okay, however, is putting down others for being happy about said characters getting in, that isn't going to change the chances of what you didn't get. Plus, that's poor sportmanship.


I've played Street Fighter a long-long-long-long time ago, like Alpha or something, while my sister played that and later titles which I just watched. I'm familiar with the feel of those traditional fighting games, so maybe that may apply to what could be expected of Terry. We can only tell once November comes!

Absolutely, I've seen many and even worse situations, and yes it wont change anything cuz you just gotta get over it, tbh I wasn't that excited to see Terry cuz I have no connection, but as soon as you dig into the character and the series he came from you might find something special and so I did ^^

That's a guarantee for sure, and to that I'm now really curious to see what Terry is gonna bring :3

Yeah, I did hear about that leak last minute too lol. Though it's not like I really knew anything about the character so no real consequence anyhow.

MewKwota In reply to RedBlueIsCool [2019-09-10 00:45:19 +0000 UTC]

Maybe on the upper half of his body, Terry certainly is. ( > ,o);

I felt a warm color didn't seem quite right with Terry's design for some reason, so I kept leaning towards a blue color. And then my sister told me in the end of his reveal with the other DLC Fighter lined up that you can see the background color. So, I was able to get a confirmation!

Sadly, with this leak, I learned of yet another name-- so I am left with at least one other thing that may hint towards the last Fighter of this set. Either way, I'll try to avoid any future rumors/leaks to the best of my ability. I find them to be such a bummer, regardless of how much I know the person in question-- it just ruins that good surprise that often comes with a Smash reveal.

Aw that's too bad it mighta been leaked but thanks for not spurting it out. The way I see it though leaks are guilty/false until proven otherwise. That "grinch" leak being prime candidate. All in all, fake leaks do kinda help in that regard because it can be even more exciting with an actual reveal. So maybe that's the way to look at it...

MewKwota In reply to RedBlueIsCool [2019-09-11 00:54:29 +0000 UTC]

I try to be real considerate about leaks. I didn't exactly wanna know about it, so I surely don't want to assume others would too. ( " -");


I guess you can see it that way, for some people it could add to more excitement because someone's guess was right all along. Whatever the case, this does vary between each person, so that's why we need to be careful of how we handle the sharing of that information.

MewKwota In reply to JosephineLithius [2019-09-09 00:49:09 +0000 UTC]

I would guess he had a fairly good following, in addition to his history in video games, that may have given the guy some considerations for the game. ( ` ,`);

Although, those are only my assumptions, with how much I know about Terry. The only person who can really give you that answer is Mr. Sakurai himself.


That aside, if you aren't too interested in him or agree with the addition, that's totally fine too. You aren't obligated to buy or use Terry once he gets released.

MewKwota In reply to JosephineLithius [2019-09-09 01:25:37 +0000 UTC]

Castlevania isn't as widespread as it was years ago, and I'm certain a couple other series followed a similar pattern where they were mostly popular in a specific place prior to a character's inclusion in Smash-- like the Mother series and even Fire Emblem. Even if it isn't entirely associated to Nintendo itself, King of Fighters made its mark in the history of fighting games, but compared to other series in that genre I can understand that it may come off more niche-ish.


Still, I'm just providing reasons, not pushing you to change your mind. You're free to feel otherwise about Terry's inclusion, but as I often tell myself "Somebody wanted someone". That doesn't make your opinion any less valued compared to others who wanted him.
