ever since i saw the trialer for Sonic Racing: Transformed, my mind was pretty much incinerated with thoughts of an actual person, you know, like a celebrity, getting in as a playable character for smash bros 4.

this gal, Danica Patrick, appeared as a playable character in the new Sonic Racing game (along with wreck it ralph).

when i first saw this, i felt like a meteor smashed my face. even though the chances of this happening in smash bros is astronomicaly, eye-stabbingly low, i just have to ponder who the most likely person would be. this post looks like it needs to be in the joke thread, but i am being serious.
so there you have it. just another "dead thread" for the future i suppose, but if this thread is a sin against humanity... maderators, you know the drill.

discuss.

Reggie for smash!

(In all seriousness, this wouldn't work as they didn't originate from a video game)

I remember a rumor saying Miyamoto was going to be in actually (in Brawl) lol... Don't remember where.

Anyway it wouldn't work at all, too weird. Danica Patrick is basically the only wrong thing in that masterpiece which is Sonic Racing Transformed. I accept her only because I like to think it helped boost the sales, somehow.

The only thing I would like to see is an original nerd character which basically looks like the AVGN in the episode of R.O.B., wearing all those Nintendo peripherals. But again, highly unlikely and controversial...

haha, seriously.

i always thought jackie chan would be a great character to play as~ he just has that playful feel to him. one of his moves MUST involve a random chair somehow.

hmm....
It'd say its pretty probable that she makes it in. Only thing holder her back are the rights held by the companies on her outfit.

im not talking about danica's chances, i was just using her as the main example.

God no
Can't stand this idea
Kill it with fire

Danica Patrick doesn't even fit well into S&ASRT. I never bothered to unlock her.

I for one would love to see Sakurai karate chop everything in sight.

One can only dream...

Not likely to happen because developers must get person's permission in order to do so.

You thought he was? He's a fictional character.

Or is this some awesome joke I don't get?
:3
He's the most legit looking smash character. . . from Tom Clancy or something, right? I don't know how to continue this without making it even more painfully obvious than it is, I make stupid jokes frequently.

Isn't there James Bond?
well, james bond is a fictiional character, but the 3d modle's were based off of the actors were they not?:troll:

so far we have, jackie chan, lady gaga, reggie, sakurai, and miyamoto. lets keep the list growing ~ har.

which of those listed do you think would actually agree to have themselves in the game anyway?

I would prefer a real person over a disney character, but I cannot think of anyone that would fit in smash bros with the jumping UP specials, endurance and final smashes

Put Sakurai in the game and make him playable

Please tell me I'm not the only person who sees how awesome this would be

The only real-life person I could legitimately see in Smash is Dr. Kawashima, and even then only as a cameo. Real-life people do not belong in Smash, simple as that.

Famous people have appeared in many video games (and the devs too!). It's not too far-fetched if they're given super strength or whatever, it's a video game after all. I think it's unlikely that we'll see a real person as a fighter, but it's always fun to list ideas.

[collapse=Fighters]
Yeah, some these people have already appeared in video games lol.





:love:



[/collapse]
But yeah, cameos from the developers would be cool, like Iwata in WarioWare for example.

I'm not against this at all, but there should be 1 condition, the person is still alive. a zombie celebrity would be too farfetched

If it is not Sakurai himself or Miyamoto (or maybe Reggie, who is all about kicking ass and taking names), then no dice.
Though I think it might be possible for a real Nintendo rep such as the above three, but in Mii form, so it is technically game-relevant.

Not before we get comic book editors, soccor moms, mangaka, and TV celebrities in Smash. :troll:

Yeah, I'd say Dr. Kawashima would be the only exception. Otherwise, ugh, no.

And Danica Patrick is a huge stain on Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Almost makes Ralph seem like a good addition. :troll:
Though Miku Hatsune getting in could make up for that... :awesome:

Unless it was Miyamoto. :troll:

People claim that he wanted himself in Brawl, after all. (Though if anyone has a source for that, I would like to see it)

I always imagined that if real people would get in, they would be those who once had relations with Nintendo:

-Mike Tyson
-Ken Griffey Jr.
-Kobe Bryant
-Wayne Gretzky (not sure if his hockey game was actually done by Midway).

Of course nowadays, this would be considered a joke.
