You hyped a character that you didn’t knew shit about? 

Did you know that after Geno joins your party in Mario RPG, he only has six more lines of dialogue until the end of the game?

That's a lie, I made that number up on the spot. But it feels like it might be true, doesn't it? Certainly a little bit surprising, "Oh, it was really that few? Damn." But it doesn't seem all that implausible. From memory, it seems about right that he completely vanishes from the game immediately after his first appearance.

why just make shit up? it took 10 seconds to search for the script and another 10 seconds to ctrl+f the page and find out that geno has 30 lines of dialogue in the entire game, and most of them are like "yeah, let's go!"

this "legendary" beloved character that people hyped up for decades...

Sometimes characters are just cool. He's a neat puppet guy with a killer design that shoots stars. That's enough for me to want him in Smash.

no he's not

he's a fugly early CGI character that looks like a reject from pixar's tin toy

why anyone would think a wooden doll is "cool" is beyond me
