Before the inclusion of Cloud Strife, I would have never thought Alucard was a legitimate choice for the Smash Bros series. He was, after all, the star of a game that was a PlayStation exclusive. Technically he WAS in Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse on NES, but he wasn't the main character. He was just an ally you could access if you took a certain path. But now that Smash has become more a celebration of video game history and not just Nintendo history, Wouldn't Alucard be a great addition? Sure he'd be yet another sword wielder, but there's nothing wrong with that. And as Sakurai has, many times in the past, brought in surprise characters like Snake, I think Alucard has a chance. As I've said before. Castlevania in Smash Bros is a long overdue inclusion. And a stage based on "Symphony of the Night" would be a perfect thing for Alucard to bring along with him.
