Yeah. Wouldn't be surprised if we wound up with an entire row on the character select screen of with nothing but DLC characters at this point. Mario Kart 8 is still getting DLC support even though it's almost a year old so I think SSB4 will be in a similar boat.
As long as the Ice Climbers are in that row, I don't care which Nintendo stars get in. Because I'll have my Retro Trio back, along with a few new sidekicks (Greninja, Villager, and Ness, though they aren't as retro, or not retro at all, as the others).
We actually have entire games exclusive to the New 3ds and we have upcoming titles that will be, it's not just "exclusive features". The only problem I see is with online because 3ds players wouldn't be able to play with New 3ds players because of ice climbers, but even that can be fixed by adding them to the game on 3ds but not allowing them to be played.
And since Smash 3DS isn't a New 3DS game it kinda seems convoluted if they took that route. Wii U exclusivity would be an easy answer if Sakurai ever changed his mind and made this one exception. But the demand is present and I think that's all we need to show that the Ice Climbers shouldn't have been taken for granted. Who knows what Sakurai would actually do for a solution? We're just giving suggestions and the incentive to make them a higher priority.
). I'd be torn if I found out I had to pick only one of the two...
Two tops. With this recent development, I think most of the DLC characters were picked in advance but I think they'll hold off on the last two additions when the poll closes in October and release them in the Spring of 2016.Exactly how many characters do you think we'll get out of the ballot. I'm supporting one veteran (the Ice Climbers) and one newcomer (won't say which one
I think that makes sense. I kinda hope that we get the vets like Ice Climbers separate from the ballot. That shows that the Ice Climbers and other veterans weren't forgotten, and the ballot can focus on newcomers. Thanks for the input!
Rayman
"Rayman and a whole bunch of others."
Exactly. Someone people would recognize.
No, I should have seen someone was gonna make a joke out of it. But ya, we need to push the idea now so that if they don't get in as DLC they can at least be one of the first announced when Smash 5 gets announced.
THANK YOU! IM AN AMERICAN AND EVEN I KNOW WHICH IS THE TRUE FOOTBALL!

Isaac, Krool, and Wolf are the top 3 first party characters. If Ryu's getting in, I don't think we need more third party characters (unless its Snake, since he's a veteran), especially shovel knight.
Shovel Knight over Rayman? Disgusting.
Though I'm not a huge Rayman supporter, I will say that if we get anymore 3rd parties, it should be either Rayman or Snake. Shovel Knight needs to pay his dues still, as he's fairly new and needs to grow before we think of him getting in.
It is quite confusing...shoot, triple avatar...
I'm just interested :] I'll change the question to want instead of think.
Quintet.I've already said which second party character I'd like to see (a rep for Inazuma Eleven) but of course IC have priority
Also quadruple avy XD
Make their specials have more damage, and have a better affect on opponents. Then they (the special moves) might be useful. Because the only one you ever use is the recovery, for obvious reasons.
Imagine if we all used the same avatar? But I just went with Polar Bear Climbers to get my point across that I'm an ICies supporter.
I feel the exact same way though many of us agree that a solo Ice Climber should be used only as a very last resort. If the duo doesn't work on the 3DS, I for one would be okay with it if it means we get Ice Climbers in Smash 4 at all and not have the team give up on them a second time. Here's the order I'd like them to go by: 1. Traditional duo with desynching and all. -> 2. Duo without the ability to desynch or separate in any way even when they're KO'd and they're treated as one. ----------> 3. Play as one Ice Climber mainly while the other climber appears then disappears during certain attacks. Maybe B moves and final smash, much like what you just said, similar to Zelda's Phantom Slash. However, if there are 4 Popos and 4 Nanas on screen and they summon the other climber, would Popo still summon Nana and vise versa? Well, the other climber can be shaded to indicate that they're not the one being controlled to avoid confusion. And finally... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> 4. A straight up solo Ice Climber, 4 Popo colors, 4 Nana colors, with buffed moves and a different recovery. The least favorable of the bunch. It takes away their gimmick, but I don't believe they'd just suddenly turn into a Dedede clone. It just wouldn't be the same. Maybe they could use the condor as a recovery, but I don't know. I'm not too worried about it since Sakurai is notorious for blowing our minds with these crazy creative things that we never would've thought of, and I trust that they can be re-implemented in the best way manageable if they understand the importance of these characters in Smash.
Going to what you said about the avatars...
It's too late mang.
If they go that route...
Ah, so you made that? Nice! It's great to see these types of vote for Ice Climbers pictures start to phase out the R.I.P. Ice Climbers ones. Can't wait to see more ICies artwork. I've been thinking about doing some drawings of characters such as the Ice Climbers myself. Though I've never gotten around to using my drawing tablet that I've had since Christmas.Oh. I finally found the IC support thread!
I'm a longtime MASSIVE Ice Climber fan, I've loved them since Melee, mained them in Brawl and have been torn up for months after their Smash 4 deconfirmation.
After I learned about the ballot, I scribbled something out for them really fast and put it on twitter--
But I'm totally willing to do more art so that everyone can know just how serious we are about bringing them back!
Haha. I haven't had any time to draw either. In case you never saw it, this is what I did for the ICies on their 30th Anniversary. Nothing too much but just wanted to put it up:
Is Nana using Disable on Toadette :OThe last Ice Climbers thing I drew was this 6 months ago.
But now I feel like drawing more, For the Ice Climbers!
Just means you've got a different talent. Nothing to be ashamed of.
Agree with Marigi. Though more on a funny side than something strictly ICies, it is pretty well done.The last Ice Climbers thing I drew was this 6 months ago.
But now I feel like drawing more, For the Ice Climbers!
