Does being in Smash really change the image of a franchise/character to the public? Bomberman used to be lovef, but now he's seen as a failed/loser franchise because he got BTFO.

R1 sold millions since it came out before smash, but R2 flopped since Smashfags only wants games with playable characters

Peak Bomberman coolness was when Bomberman Hero dropped
It's been downhill ever since

Laugh at Bombermanfags
>has 100+ games
>one of the most copied games of all time
>revolutionized multi-player in gaming
>had the first HD game ever
>launched the successful B-Daman toyline
>good Nintendo history and had a crossover with Wario and Mario Party 2 unused content
>has other crossovers with Pac-Man, Transformers, Yatterman and Lilo & Stich
>still gets BTFO in SSB and became a complete laughtingstock by everyone
>series gets overshadowed by waifufags and coomers beacuse of Bombergirl despite them never playing the game
>R got outsold by the new Momotetsu, a fellow Hudson IP that was only released in Japan.
>no console game for 5 years
>No games on NSO
>40th anniversary came and went with no fanfare or events
What a fucking loser. Imagine being a Bombercuck in 2024

Captain Falcon, Ice Climbers, Ness, Lucas, Mr. Game & Watch and the entirety of Fire Emblem.
No one gave a shit about any of these until Smash.

bomberman hate is a thing?

The average person doesn't think about Bomberman much, but anon a couple posts above is straight-up deranged about him.

Leon from RE isn't in smash and RE is still popular. I doubt the average Smash player knows what Rob or Captain Falcon are even from.

Do these fans even overlap? I doubt REfags give a shit about smash.

>usurped from his own franchise by coomer gatcha characters

>>713882530
Didn't you hear the recent news? Leon can never be a protagonist because isn't a scared cat that would jump at a falling bucket. Weird to go this route when the previous games started out as you playing cops or special forces investigation the outbreak.

Bomberman and Bombergirl coexist between different divisions of Konami.
