While I don't believe in "retro" as a character archetype, in terms of characters that are essentially defined by their lack of recent appearances, Takamaru is the only newcomer I fancy.

If :pit: is anything to go by, even a single game's worth of abilities can translate into a decent moveset.

I'm still amazed that Sakurai came up with an entire moveset for Pit when the only thing he did was shoot arrows. I miss Pit's old side B, which is why I put it in my Goku moveset (SHAMELESS SELF PLUGS).

Takamaru is absolutely my first choice for any Retro character. I just wish they hadn't screwed him into AT status. Out of every disappointment from pre-release speculation, that pissed me off the most.

:4wiifit:: ...Huh.
:rosalina:: THEY ADDED ROSALINA!? Awesome! You know, if she could get in, maybe he could...
:4littlemac:: Great!
:4greninja:: ...Mewtwo?
:4mii:: Guess they made it after all. That's pretty cool.
:4palutena:: Saw that coming. She looks pretty fun, though that leak is starting to look more and more real...
:4pacman:: Congratulations, Pacack!
:4lucina:: Well, this is probably going to be Shulk... Maybe it's time for me to forget about Rob- wait you're not Shulk...
:4robinm:: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! I CANT BELEIVE THIS IS HAPPENING! IN YOUR FACE, GEMATSU ZEALOTS!
:4shulk:: Yay, Shulk!
:4bowserjr:: Another Mario character? Alright then. He's a great choice, at least.
:4duckhunt:: Aww, look at the widdle puppy!
:4mewtwo:: YES!
:4lucas:: Awesome, Lucas is back!
:4feroy:: And I thought four was a lot...

Mine was Ridley...
Takamaru is great, I'm sure he'll get in the next game (he was almost put in the game but muhricans dont kno no Tekurmeru) I have one word for Sakurai, Internet.

I'd rather Takamaru just get in next time. He'll get more attention that way, and would be all but guaranteed to get a stage, whereas with DLC it's more of a toss-up.

I think getting Goku (from Yuyuki) would be great, he'd make for a fun character in Smash, but I think my choice would be Sukapon. Unless we also got Rayman, then it'd feel a little redundant. And yeah he's probably not going to happen... but he's still more likely than Goku haha.

We could all use some Joy Mech Fight tunes...

Speaking of Joy Mech Fight. What the hell ever happened to Sukapon's popularity? I thought he was hugely requested in Japan way back when...

He was and then Sakurai said not to expect him in the future causing his popularity to steadily decrease since then.

He's still the most popular retro in Japan. Just a lot less popular than he used to be.

All you need to do is Bolieve. Goku will make it in one day. Who doesn't want a staff user (Real staff user no goddess twirl ****). Shaolin/bo style staff using with kung fu, rideable cloud, and transformations on a monkey. Great character potential right there.

Transforms into a Monkey and rides a cloud?

No, he IS a monkey, can transform into different animals (I used his friends for this move and its also from SMITE) and has a flying cloud. Not that he can transform into a monkey.
.....Well Shantae can still transform into various things other than a monkey.
My joke stands.

Yeah, but her monkey is just a phase. Goku is a real monkey. Plus monkey kung fu.



Shantae - "ITS NOT A PHASE DAD!"
Dad - "Yes it is, you're not a monkey."
Shantae - "YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"
Shantae's parents are dead.
Shantae is the new batman.
I welcome this change.
Edit: This makes Sky the new Robin.
And Risky the new Joker.
Even better.

So, gonna go ahead and change topics...With Dreamland returning and both Hyrule and Peach's Castles being on the way...What stages are people interested/excited in seeing for DLC?
Let's talk about 'new' stages rather than old ones cuz then I'm sure we'll see lots of Saffron City, Fountain of Dreams, Fourside, Brinstar Depths, etc...And perhaps some music to go with it, if you want!

I'd like to see these stages...
Personally, I'd like to see:

DK -
Gangplank Galleon (DKC) / The Flying Kroc (DKC2)
Probably more likely to be the former (especially since there's no signs of Pirate Ship coming back). Gangplank Galleon is extremely iconic and could include various K. Rool boss themes. As a bonus, its also the first world of DKC2, so it could fit both K. Rool and Dixie. Then again, so could The Flying Kroc, being the final boss battle, though I see it more as fighting on the roof of the Flying Kroc instead of inside it.

Zelda -
Sacred Grove (TP) / Sacred Forest Meadow (OOT[3D])
Mostly just want a forest-related stage since Zelda games so heavily focus on forests near the beginning of the game. Even in MM the first area you go to, the swamp, is also surrounding by a foresty area, and technically MM starts off in the Lost Woods.

Other: Golden Sun -
Venus Lighthouse / Elemental Stars Chamber (GS1)
Venus Lighthouse moreso, but Elemental Stars Chamber would also work well. The Lighthouses would be a great option, and all lighthouses look mostly the same anyway on the roof. Venus Lighthouse since its the climactic final dungeon of GS1, and also its the same element as every main character. Especially Isaac, of course.

I want Takamaru to get in next time instead of as DLC too, but under the idea that he should be reimagined like Pit in Brawl, and if he were added as DLC he'd likely be a spiced up version of the AT, and that is lame.

So guys, I wanna ask, what is you're preferred Nintendo Retro pick for the ballot. If any Nintendo retro newcomer was added. Mine is Goku, *Waits to hear angry people rioting outside my door*

from Yuyuki.

These are the new stages I want, DLC or later:

:4mario: - Battle Theater (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)
I want this stage almost as much as the character himself. It'd be super fun and interesting, with the curtains opening and closing to reveal changing backdrops, props, and hazards. The audience would interact too, throwing projectiles at bad or cheap Fighters while tossing helpful items to the winning ones. And it's more Paper Mario music who doesn't want that?

:4link: - Voyage of Time (Zelda: Ocarina of Time)
A stage that transitions between a room from all six of the temples in Ocarina of Time - the battle chamber with Dark Link from Water Temple, and the ghost ship of the Shadow Temple being examples. Each Temple transitions with a corresponding Ocarina warp song.

I also liked the idea of a Forest stage like @ JaidynReiman JaidynReiman said.

:4bowser: - Bowser's Castle (Mario)
This stage is long overdue. Lava, thwomps, fireballs, LASERS, and ****ing awesome Bowser music galore. Make it happen Sakurai.

That's it really. The rest of the stages I want are either past/version exclusive (Pirate Ship, Hanenbow, etc) or are tied directly to a character I want (Urchin Underpass, Queen Zenobia from Resident Evil, etc).

Oh yeah, that guy exists.
What are you talking about?
He's a stage hazard in that new Greenhouse stage that Tower of Smash leaked, just like Impa, Dixie, Chorus Kids, and Ridley being playable!

Jesus I feel sorry for the guy who made that long ass leak to be shut down like a week later because of Orbital Gate & Gamer

But stages I want to see?
:4mario:: Bowser's Castle.
:4kirby:: Extra Dimension.
:4dk:: Gangplank Galleon
:4ness:: New Pork City
4Isaac: Elemental Lighthouses (works like Kalos League)
4Inkling: Inkopolis

That's what he gets for trying to fool us with that "leak".

RIP Pirate Ship.

Technically, Sonic and Mega Man are both platformers. So the "genre not yet repped" isn't exactly a set criteria, though that could apply.
Platforming is probably one the most recognized gaming genres in gaming.( Hence why it has many platformers in the game.) While it's true that they rep a genre thats already represented they've made sub genre of the respective genre. Sonic represents the speed platforming (attempted by many but not quite the overall success i.e bubsy) and megaman represents the action platforming unique to only a couple of series( but again not the same sucess as him)

No love for Excitebike?

"Duh you doofus, Excitebike isn't retro because it had spinoff a like Excite Trick and Excitebits. Thus making it a new series than a retro series."

This is practically the Dragon Buster situation all over again.

:4villager:: What? Well, his moves are really funny xD
:4megaman:: HORY SHET! IS MEGAMAN! MEGAMAN! FREAKING MEGAMAN!
:4wiifit:: HAHAHAHAHAHA... Oh seriously... the people get salty with everything... this character is actually hilarious and has a great potential xD
:rosalina:: Kirby Air Ride? Mario Kart? Luma?... Oh wow, is Rosalina!? Hey! The moveset idea looks cool.
:4littlemac:: This one of the fews characters that I actually expect in this game... and I love it.
:4greninja:: Expected... But arrives in a really troll way... hahaha.
:4mii:: Expected... Is cool the idea.
:4palutena:: Expected... Looks really powerful that booty
:4pacman:: Expected... I approve him :p
:4lucina:: Eh? I expect some Fire Emblem Awakening Character... But her? Is she a Marth Clone?
:4robinm:: Okay, HE is the actual New Fire Emblem Character (Lucina is a filler... and I'm one of the fews that believes that Fire Emblem has 4 Characters plus a random filler), oh Sakurai... you really surprise me (I did have problems think about what charater he could choose), I'm don't a particulary fan of this game... but I find the gimmick a cool idea... I'm a Fire Emblem fan :p
:4shulk:: I'M REALLY FEELING IT... (No a super hype, but that simple phrase was cool xD)
:4darkpit:: Eh? Okay... He is like Lucina... a filler character in last minute... I'm okay with him.
:4bowserjr:: Wow... The Car... I don't really expect this... is awesome
:4duckhunt:: THE ULTIMATE TROLL IS HERE HAHAHAHAHAHA

Excitebike all the way. All though I don't want him as much as Goku, Donbe and Hikari, and Star Man from Pro Wrestling. Weird thing is, I own all 4 of those threads.

:4robinm::4robinf: They look cool, its nice to see something a little more flavorful from the FE cast. Wait, oh no, is Ness gone?

:4shulk:Welp the leaks were real

:4darkpit: ... Welp that's a slot wasted, Sakurai, why?

:4bowserjr::4larry::4roy::4wendy::4iggy::4morton::4lemmy::4ludwig: Oh... That's very nice, very nice indeed

Am I late for the "characters I recognized" thing? Oh well. This is based on the time of reveal/unlocking in Smash.

Played their games:
:mario64::yoshi64::dk64::kirby64::link64::pikachu64::gawmelee::sonic::4pacman:
Knew of them:
:samus64::fox64::snake::warioc::pit::rob::olimar::4villager::4wiifit::4megaman::4littlemac::4shulk::4ryu:
Unknown:
:ness64::falcon64::icsmelee::marthmelee:

As of now, I've played games from the Metroid, Metal Gear, Kid Icarus, Pikmin, AC, Mega Man, and Xenoblade franchises. I actually had no idea who Mega Man was until I saw people requesting him for Brawl, but I knew of Snake and Ryu before seing them in Smash. I also played the Game & Watch Gallery games growing up, so G&W in Melee was the highlight of that game.

[collapse=Newcomer reactions]
:4villager:Called it.
:4megaman:Trailer was awesome looking, he's pretty neat.
:4wiifit:(After the laughter of Link and Kirby doing yoga) ...Wait, what? Are you serious?
:rosalina:Why is Nintendo shoving her in everything? Poor Toad.
:4littlemac:Wow, he actually made it.
:4greninja:I don't even care about Mewtwo and I don't like this.
:4mii:Predicted almost to the very last detail.
:4palutena:Lady Palutena! Finally someone I care about!
:4pacman:PAC-MAN! YES YES YES!
:4robinm:One of the most hype trailers if only for Captain Falcon wrecking Chrom. Robin is the best FE choice too.
:4lucina:But then they killed it with an even worse choice than Chrom. She's a clone though so it doesn't matter.
:4shulk:That accent is amazing, I need to main him. And I did.
:4bowserjr:Wait, Shulk means... well, there's Scrappy Jr. At least I don't have to look at him, there's Wendy and Ludwig.
:4duckhunt:I really don't care for the game at all, but I love the idea of the fourth wall breaking shooter.
:4darkpit:Tryhard Pit, not actually that bad, but his arrows are too stiff. Can we get Viridi now?
:4mewtwo:DLC hype. Snake, Snake, Snaaake!
:4lucas:No crying until the end... Snake is closer.
:4feroy:My boy! Still waiting, Snake.
:4ryu:I like Ryu because he spits in the face of almost every Snake argument ever.

Wow, what an ambitious list. I'd have to say that I can't expect EVERYONE on the list to be added, but it certainly seems like a pretty acurate prediction. I can't wait to see how close you are when all the DLC comes out (which will probably never happen for a long time).

But still, being the Isaac fanboy I am, I wish he got put on the list. I think he's a fairly likely candidate.

I expect most of these characters to be DLC for SSB for 3DS/Wii U.

Out of interest, which newcomers in this iteration did you support during speculation?

:4bowserjr: Never even crossed my mind as a viable candidate, much less the Koopalings
:4darkpit: I figured he'd appear in some capacity, especially after Palutena's trailer, though I expected him to be an alt
:4duckhunt: Never once even thought of 'em
:4greninja: Definitely expected a Gen 6 Pokémon, though I was more so thinking Kalos Pokémon Trainer, and didn't really have much interest in it either way
:4littlemac: Thought he had a good chance and really wanted to see him
:4lucina: Never considered
:4megaman: Never considered
:4mii: Expected (though not as they turned out), had tepid interest
:4palutena: My most-wanted newcomer, full stop
:4pacman: Expected, and again had tepid interest
:4robinm: I definitely thought Chrom was the most viable candidate, though I did really like the idea of Robin (though I thought they'd be called "Avatar")
:rosalina: Didn't really think of her or have more than mild interest
:4ryu: Never considered
:4shulk: Didn't want him at all, due to my ignorance of his character
:4villager: Never considered
:4wiifit: Who honestly saw this coming or supported it unironically?

Aside from that, the only other character I really wanted was Wonder Red. I guess I got what I wanted in the end!
:4bowserjr: Expected, but hated. Turned out as one of my favourite newcomers.
:4ludwig:Supported ironically, figured he'd never get in but was always my favourite Koopaling. Ludwig was the only supported one though.
:4darkpit: Figured he'd be an alt to Pit as he'd be redundant as a fighter in his own right.
:4duckhunt: Actually supported. My most wanted retro thanks to Arcadenik. Figured he'd have no chance. Glad I was wrong.
:4greninja: Nope. Had no idea.
:4littlemac: Only predicted due to Smashboards hype. Was not interested. Turned out really fun.
:4lucina: Thought she was the least likely of the Fire Emblem choices(The Awakening trio and Roy). Viewed her as a joke suggestion.
:4megaman: Expected him in. Never cared for Megaman personally.
:4mii: Expected, but like others didn't expect them in 'that' way.
:4palutena: Expected but didn't want. Was still disappointed.
:4pacman: Expected and supported. Rare. Happy with the result even if he's different from how I imagined him.
:4robinm:Hoped s/he'd get in over Chrom and Lucina. Great addition even if I'm useless with them.
:rosalina:Viewed her like most people view Daisy these days. Definitely didn't expect over Jr. Hoped not over Toad. Was wrong on both accounts.
:4ryu:Liked but figured Megaman killed his chances.
:4shulk: Didn't even know.
:4villager: Expected some kind of AC character. Was not disappointed.
:4wiifit: Obviously didn't see coming. That was her whole schtick. Still is really.

Wii Fit Trainer is the new ROB lol. Everyone seems to hate her but she's probably coming back for Smash 5. I personally don't like playing her (no range like at all) but I want her back for the next game.

Outside of the clone newcomers I think everyone should stay.
Love how no one pointed out I didn't mention Dark Pit earlier
