Green Hill Zone's background on the 3DS version doesn't automatically rule out Tails or Knuckles. Shadow is ruled out because of Assist Trophy status, and Silver won't get in for many reasons. Someone went into the Tails thread thinking that, but I made a solid argument on why that doesn't mean anything. But in short, if the team thinks making the DLC will make people happy... cameos on a PAST stage wouldn't discourage them. (And besides, there's examples of characters being a background element but they are playable in the game with both New Stage and Past Stage examples. You have Villager(/s) in Smashville and Fox & Falco in Arwings in the Star Fox stages.)Hmm, we can confirm that a few of the characters in the Sonic series won't be playable. These characters are:
As far as relevancy goes, Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik (full names for the win) would probably be the next to get in, then followed by Amy Rose. I'd prefer to bank on Eggman. As iconic to the series as Amy is, you can never go wrong with the main villain.
- Miles "Tails" Prower
- Shadow the Hedgehog
- Knuckles the Echidna
- Silver the Hedgehog
After all, he has the master plan.
True.Think about it. No-one thought Villager or Wii Fit Trainer would be in the game.
I respect your thinking, but I do not believe this will increase the possibility of a Sonic representative being put into Smash 4. You do bring up a good point however, so this can support the claim that Sonic reps may be present in a future Smash game. As for now, many do not see any more fighters from this series being put into the latest Smash installment.Plus, Sega and Nintendo are slowly growing closer. Imagine how their relationship would be at least 5 yrs. from now. It is still possible. We musn't give up!
Tails could put up a pretty good fight for that claim.It would probably be Eggman, as he's the most important character in the series other than Sonic.
Nintendo would need to buy the Sonic IP for that to ever happen.Tails could put up a pretty good fight for that claim.
Anyway, the day Sonic gets more than four characters in Smash we'll all probably be dead or wish we were dead.
I have been able to do so using two different devices (like voting once with a smartphone, and the other time on a computer, etc.).can you vote for 2 characters in the smash ballot
Because it's a fairly accepted thing that trying to get a SECOND Sonic character is a stretch in and of itself and the votes are for a singular character (unless the mechanic of how they fight is a duo, like Ice Climbers, Duck Hunt, Donbe & Hikari, or Cream & Cheese).Okay so, oni333 and all the others who prefer different characters to Amy Rose, why not for example vote for Tails and Amy Rose
We have.Give her a chance!
Pretty much this. The Sonic fan base just keeps getting way too loud when it comes to smash speculation.I like Amy just fine, but Tails and Knuckles would be my biggest Sonic wants.
But I'm not really rooting for even Tails at this point.
You do realize that Sally didn't originate in a video game, right?Would so rather go with Blaze or Sally instead.
Oh but she did, she was originally 1 of the animals rescued in STH1:You do realize that Sally didn't originate in a video game, right?
So they changed her gender?Oh but she did, she was originally 1 of the animals rescued in STH1:
Amy Rose on the other hand, is not originally from a game but actually debuted in manga & later to the games: http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Eimi
What a buncha baloney. Amy and Eimi are not the same person. Amy was only based off of Eimi. Even your own source says so.Oh but she did, she was originally 1 of the animals rescued in STH1:

Even with Sally looking like she does in the comics/old cartoon, she was in Sonic Spinball before Amy was ever in Sonic CD.Pretty much this. The Sonic fan base just keeps getting way too loud when it comes to smash speculation.
However, I think it would've been nice to see her as an Assist Trophy.

The squirrel in the games is straight up named Sally Acorn in the western versions of STH1, the name originates from that source. The Sally of the cartoon is an adaption of that squirrel. In fact all of the animals were initially going to be in the cartoon at first but plans got changed & only Sally remained. http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Pre-SatAM_images I don't see that as straw grasping at all.And that pic you shared just screams straw grasping. Sally was only based off the kinda squirrel you would find in said game. There's no connection at all.
Exactly. It's just one squirrel. We won't ever even know if the same "Sally" was even in the game to begin with. I'm not saying she wasn't, I'm saying there's no proof that one certain "Sally Acorn" could've been in Sonic 1.The squirrel in the games is straight up named Sally Acorn in the western versions of STH1, the name originates from that source.
