It's been nearly 10 years since they started adding their own original heroes to the game, and with TI just around the corner, a new one will probably be announced soon. Do you think these new heroes fit in with the rest of the game visually and thematically? Do you like the pace of adding new heroes? Is 15 heroes in 10 years enough, or would you prefer more?

If one is playable, the other one is also playable. If one is missing, the other one is also missing from the roster. Sindel used to be a part of this group until her appearance in MK1.

Obviously, the NES has way more games than the Master System, but do you think MS had quality over quantity on its side? Also, which system do you think had better-looking games? The Master System had more colorful graphics, but some of the later NES games looked really great despite the limited palette.
