"New" weapons

While it's true that we can't add anything to the game (at least currently, but I don't exactly have high hopes), we do have the option of replacing some items with others, so I thought I'd bring it up. Ver.2 has a fairly good amount of useless weapons, most of them being Force weapons that no self-respecting Force would ever use. xD It should be possible to replace them with other weapons by using existing models and textures. Ver.2 specifically has a major shortage of Slicers and Shots which could be rectified. Cool

Some of the weapons that could be replaced:

Flower Cane
Rabbit Wand
Plantain Leaf
Demonic Fork
Twinkle Star
Flower Bouquet

Unfortunately, the truly terrible items that really deserve replacing like Maser Beam and Belra Cannon can't be replaced with anything useful because the thing that makes them terrible is their super specials. Even if Maser Beam became something else, it would still cast Zonde instead of attacking, and Belra Cannon would still be unable to combo. Mad

Our only hope of fixing those kinds of weapons would be if the executable can someday be modified to remove those super specials.

The simplest "replacement" weapons would be to add things like extra "Red" weapons, i.e. Red Shot, Red Rifle, Red J-Cutter, Red Twin, and things of that nature. Twins are really easy because all you have to do is change their Photon colour and bam you've got a new one, haha. We could even make a Double DB's Saber, lmao.

One thing I'd like to do is have an S-Rank Fist, which Sega added for GC. My choice would be to replace the S-Rank Moon, since an S-Rank Summit Moon is like... majorly lame. Sad

Thoughts? Obviously since we're taking away from the Force weapons, many of their replacements would need to be Force-equippable. Though Forces would never use these terrible weapons to begin with, they should have some variety.
