Smash Lord
Wave Race and 1080 Snowboarding? I remember when I was a kid racking my brain as to who could appear in the sequel to my beloved Smash 64. Some of the only ones I ever thought of were Wario, King Dedede and a character from Wave Race or 1080 like Rob Haywood. I always thought snowboard-based stunts for attacks and using jet skis as a side-B would've been the coolest s***.
Looking back, I can see why they never made it (too difficult to implement, more sports games that just happened to be developed by Nintendo than actual historical Nintendo games, too many vanilla, uninteresting characters that nobody has ever heard of). I also know that both series have been silent for over a decade and thus don't really matter much to Nintendo now. But both game series were relatively successful and Nintendo-made.
Has anyone else ever even considered the possibility of playing as Rob Haywood or David Mariner or someone else from these games at any point in their Smash career? Did anyone ever imagine them being plausible or were ever interested in them? Does anyone think the series should be represented in some way in Smash?
