Dude, NiGHTS would be kewl. He could fly around the stage and hit random people, like Scissor (sp?) from Melee, except longer, faster, and more chaotic. Protoman would be a killer one too, along with Roll (she'd be the "Chansey" of AT). As far as Sonic goes, odds are it will be Tails. Tails is Sonic's Luigi (anyone who doubts this should go play all the Genesis Sonic games starting with 2) and, I think, will be the Sonic AT (assuming he's not a PC)...if they only allow one.

But Mr.Resetti doesnt fight. Hes the goldeen of ATs. I still don`t think Tails should fight...But maby a obstacul. He could blow wind around with his Tails. Or use his cannon he had in Sonic battle. I don`t know....he will be in the game thou.:ohwell:
Mr. Resetti puts people to sleep I don't see how he is the goldeen of AT's.

great idea for psycho mantis AT: all players randomly switch characters and make it look like they are a different player number. eg: if you are player 1, the face icon will shift to player 3 and you will take the character of player 2. the stock would remain the same though >_>

That would be scary *shivers*.

But yeah, I agree, my guess is that there will be 1-3 AT's per third party franchise.

I hope the Sonic AT is either Tails or Eggman, since they're the other two main characters from very early on in the series. They could attack with some killer awesome machine. Knuckles would be ok too, if he didn't do some generic punching hoohah that 2 other ATs already do.
Personally, I'd hate to see Shadow, mostly because I want the early characters to be more a aprt of the game.

I'd think that a Tails AT would be a throwback to the old games. He follows you around (jumping a split second after you do), and adds a hit or two whenever you attack. In addition, when you fly off the stage, he tries to get you back, and makes you more floaty when you jump (glide ability perhaps).

We don't know that Resetti caused that. Remember, with the debug settings, Sakurai can make anything happen for the effect of the picture.

I totally second that about NiGHTS. NiGHTS was also made by the same team as Sonic, so I would assume that it's very likely we'll see NiGHTS. But it should be more intense than Scizor, himshe should fly around the screen in a spiral motion like a maniac, ramming everyone off the screen.

Megaman would be in desperate need of Roll and Zero. ;3

Ecco the Dolphin, somebody from Eternal Champion, Gunstar Heroes, and the car from Crazy Taxi.

Inside my own mind :)
But that's exactly what Tonic_Sonic wanted to say with his comment, that not all Assist Trophy characters have to fight. And therefore, that Tails doesn't need to be a good fighter to appear as an AT character either.

Besides, he can fight. Why do you think he was a playable character in Sonic 2 and 3? And just look at his moves from Sonic Battle and Sonic Heroes! Also, he could always appear in/with one of his machines. Tails is tougher than most people tend to believe... True, he's not Knuckles, but still... he could do better than say, Charmy Bee.
Hmm I didn`t think about that :p

Silver the Hedgehog and Blaze the Cat would make nice ATs as well. Silver could lift everyone close to him with his telekinetic powers and throw them either away or slam them into the ground, and Blaze could attack with a fiery tornado or something like that.

I don't think their chances of appearing in the game in some form are that slim, as both of them have appeared in the multiplayer mode of the Sonic Wii game. Also, Blaze will appear in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, not to mention her appearance in the Sonic Rush games.

If not as ATs, they could always appear as stickers and/or trophies.
