Banjo has no chance and Geno is a shoe-in in comparisen to Lucario as Geno has 5 referalls on Sakurai's list...while Lucario wasn't even mentioned.If it is indeed a 48 character roster, which would be a great number, I could see it panning out this way:
Already Confirmed:
1. Mario
2. Bowser
3. Peach
4. Yoshi
5. Wario
6. Zelda/Sheik
7. Link
8. Samus/Zero Suit Samus
9. Donkey Kong
10. Diddy Kong
11. Lucas
12. Pikachu
13. Pokemon Trainer
14. Olimar
15. Kirby
16. King Dedede
17. Meta Knight
18. Ice Climbers
19. Pit
20. Ike
21. Snake
22. Sonic
23. Fox
Returning Veterans:
24. Captain Falcon
25. Luigi
26. Ganondorf
27. Jigglypuff (though I do have my doubts, it's generally accepted that she'll return)
28. Falco
29. Marth
30. Mewtwo
31. Game and Watch
Quote-Unquote "Shoe ins":
32. Ridley
33. Krystal
34. King K Rool (Personally, I hope for him to be in his Kaptain K Rool outfit, and be named as such)
35. Lucario
These are the only true "shoe in's" as I see it. Though Lucario doesn't have quite as good a chance as the other three he has a very good chance. Just my personal opinion, but I don't consider Geno, Bowser Jr, Takamaru or Sukapon to be definately in Brawl. However...
Final Characters (Smaller Chance)
35. Bowser Jr
36. Micaiah
37. Sukapon
38. Windwaker Link (The Most likely of all these)
39. Isaac
40. Claus
41. Sylux ( A long shot)
42. Midna and Wolf Link
43. Pokemon Rival ( Doubtful, but an idea that I have really taken to. Plus it would represent all the Pokemon Generations if it was Croconaw (2nd Gen), Blaiziken (3rd Gen) and the grass starter from the fourth Gen)
44. Ray 01
45. Takamaru
46. Geno
47. Animal Crossing Villager
48. Banjo Kazooie (Never say Never)
On a side note, the only truly WTF?!? for the Smash Boards community would be to see this on the Dojo in the next week:
Warning! Challenger Approaching!
Jin Kazama: Tekken Series
Not in a MILLLION years
But that doesn't matter, notice how there's over 30 pokeball pokemon or so, half of those are 4th generation?Lucario wasnt mentioned because no game had him in at the time.
Lucario's chances are a complete mystery, but seeing as he's the new hotness of pokemon, I'd say his chances are alright.. woulda been better if there wasnt a pokemon trainer tho.
I once expected an Animal Crossing character.How is an Animal Crossing character not a shoe-in?
He has an icon, a stage, an assist trophy, an item,a bunch of trophies and stickers... should I go on?
Don't give me this "He's not a fighter!" crap.
While most people would rather no Animal Crossing playable representative, there is obviously going to be one. I'm expecting them to be announced this week on the Dojo.
Hope this is a horrible joke.where did you get the idea of 48 characters?? I always thought it was gonna be 40.
I still don't see why anyone wuld want Geno in Brawl. And do I need to explain it?
-He's well... old.
-If another Mario repmake it, it will be Bowser Jr.
-There are already a lot of Mario characters.
-He wasn't popular at all until Super Mario RPG came out for virtual console.
It's obvious he will be nothing more than an assist trophy.
I also don't see why people are missing ZANT and SHADOW.
Here's why Zant should make it:
-He's smewhat new
-Very popular Zelda character
-Has a good backstory
-His moveset's pretty easy to come up (Look at my thread "My Idea for the Brawl Character Selection" to see the moveset I came up with for him)
Here's hy Shadow should make it:
-On Smash Bros Dojo, Sakurai said to expect another Sonic charcter. And that would probably be Shadow.
-He's VERY popular
-He has a good backstory
-He's very important to the Sonic franchise
You think all the new characters in Brawl are only new characters from recent games? Let's see...Pit, Meta Knight, Wario, King Dedede, Diddy Kong, etc. Yeah, they sure look like recent "up to date" characters to me.And for all you d*ck suckers who think Geno is gonna make it, forget it because he has almost NO chance. It doesn't matter if Super Mario RPG was a good game. Shadow the Hedgehog and TLOZ: Twilight Princess were ALSO good games. And Brawl characters so far are UP TO DATE, for all you ******* who didn't see Olimar's anonuncement. There will be NEW Nintendo characters and 3rd parties entering, too. I swear, some people are f***ing ********.
I dont even recall Wolf as being significant. even tho i played all the starfoxes... seems bleh to me. Krytal was voted high enough on sakurai's poll.And again, why krystal???
She's not a good character, and she's annoying, and she's not hot, i would preffer wolf, he's way too better.
Yep, i know, but i dunno why do all you like her, she broke fox's heart in repeated times, she's not originally from starfox, and she has appeared in the failed star fox's.I dont even recall Wolf as being significant. even tho i played all the starfoxes... seems bleh to me. Krytal was voted high enough on sakurai's poll.
Wario and Diddy are bad examples:You think all the new characters in Brawl are only new characters from recent games? Let's see...Pit, Meta Knight, Wario, King Dedede, DiddyKong, etc. Yeah, they sure look like recent "up to date" characters to me.
Geno was actually Second on Sakurai's Poll for Most Wanted Characters, and WW Link wouldn't be a clone, he's much different than normal Link.I honestly believe that Geno and cell Link have NO chance of being in the game. I think Geno'll be an assist trophy, but that's it. He just didn't have a big enough role in enough games. And cell Link and Paper Mario or whatever other characters that are exactly the same as other characters except they have different visual styles won't be in... because they're exactly the same as other characters except they have different visual styles.
Also, Bowser Jr and Dark Samus rock.
You could also say that Bowser Jr didnt have a big enough role in enough games.Also, Bowser Jr and Dark Samus rock.
1. It's not what Square wants, it's what Nintendo wants. If Nintendo wants Geno, they either get him or Square can go home. And Nintendo would pick a very popular Mario character over Sora or any other FF character.Why Geno should not be in Brawl:
1. Most importantly, Square has WAY WAY WAY better options. Sora by far, is probably more popular than Geno, and actually somewhat represents Final Fantasy to a degree. If you tell me that Geno is more important than Sora to Square, I dunno where you've been.
2. Geno is a secondary party member in just one game. Nuff said.
3. If you don't know who he is, he's ugly.
4. People often say he can represent the Mario universe. Uh, no. You can't be third party, a secondary party member, AND be a playable character representing the Mario universe. It's a combination that just shouldn't happen at all. He's not actually an important Mario character at all, and if you're telling me otherwise, you've obviously only played SMRPG as far as I'm concerned.
Couldn't be bothered to read the entirety of the thread, but this guy needs to be repped.Aside from your, uh... *unique* character choices, your first post was so incorrect because you just had lots of false and/or stupid information.
1. SMRPG is not on VC.
2. Zant is in no way more popular than Ganondorf, Midna, or Wolf Link. He won't get in before they do, and Zelda won't have 7 reps. Sorry.
3. Good backstory? Err....
4. Sakurai never said a word about additional Sonic characters.
5. Shadow is only popular with the young'uns. And even then.... its Shadow. He's a horrible character.
6. Once again, good backstory? Ooooooook....
And then your response to my post just followed up with more wrong statements:
7. Shadow the Hedgehog was a awful game. Its games like these that are killing the Sonic franchise.
8. "All Brawl characters so far are UP TO DATE!". Wtf? Of course they are. Do you expect all the characters to be represented with their original graphics? You realize almost the entire cast would be 8 and 16 bit sprites, right?
About the only thing you were right about is, yes, some people are ********. I'll let you figure out who, if you can.
Regardless, Geno conceptually should never have been an option in the first place. That's the only thing I'm really saying.1. It's not what Square wants, it's what Nintendo wants. If Nintendo wants Geno, they either get him or Square can go home. And Nintendo would pick a very popular Mario character over Sora or any other FF character.
2. And he is still very popular (see Sarukais poll)
3. That's not an argument
4. He doesn't represent the Mario universe, he represents Super Mario RPG.
