Behind your eyes.
Guys, how about we just accept Vaati as our best newcomer for Zelda. I know you all want to.
Vaati are you talking about?

Ghirahim all the way.

I am of the opinion that many franchises in Brawl are perfect the way they are, and additional characters would be for uniqueness and popularity, rather than relevance or promotional value.
I think Brawl missed a few (Mewtwo foremost, among others), but yeah, Brawl had a pretty encompassing roster. Which is why cuts in SSB4 would be an unfortunate affair indeed.

I wouldn't mind more Toon representation, I suppose there is precedent to support that notion. Although, again, Tingle would be my pick (predominately utilizing his Wind Waker design). But I wouldn't mind Vaati at all, and Tetra is a much better choice than Toon Zelda/Toon Sheik.
Alfonzo was the best Toon representation

I honestly believe cuts to be necessary evil. Something that, fortunately for you, Sakurai doesn't seem to agree with. :awesome:

This is also true. I was mainly referring to the topical one, Zelda, and also Mario and Pokemon. (Well except for Mewtwo)
Which is why I see merit in Midna and Ghirahim.

When it comes to Zelda if we were to get anything fresh to the stable of characters then I would vote definitely in favor of Ghirahim, a lot of move potential and his Final Smash he could turn into Demise's Sword and he could come out of nowhere and just destroy everyone on screen.

Though I would want to see Ganondorf become Toon Ganondorf, always liked that design a lot more, plus with his dual swords that would be neat to take control of.

I do not necessarily agree. I do not condone arbitrarily assessing a franchise as "perfect;" the very notion is inherently subjective. However, I am an adamant believer that the roster should be cohesive and withstand the persistence of time. I do not advocate adding franchises for the sake of additional franchises. I do not endorse including a character from a new franchise that is destined to be the only representative. That is what assist trophies are for... obviously exceptions must be made, but it is difficult to discern where it is acceptable. For instance, I do not believe that Game and Watch was necessary for Brawl and I do not believe that R.O.B (and by extension Game and Watch) is necessary for Smash 4 (I understand why they are in the game, I understand why they will not be omitted, that doesn't change my opinion though).

Okay change "perfect" to "fine".

For the record, I also don't see a Zelda Newcomer as an essential addition, since the Brawl Zelda roster was pretty much complete. But if we are to get one, I'd prefer Ghirahim for various reasons (mostly subjective), even though I recognize that other contenders are more probable in principle.

All I'm waiting for is confirmation for Ganondorf. I need my Gerudo King.
I get what you're saying there. We do have THE main characters from the series in the form of Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf. It's not entirely necessary to add any characters past that. However, you could also argue that the Mario series was complete as early as Melee with Mario, Luigi, Peach and Bowser. We certainly didn't need Rosalina, but she is an important, recurring, and fairly popular character that does bring something new to the Smash environment. So it is quite possible that we may see a Zelda newcomer, even if it isn't essential, per se. It could go either way, and either way works.

If that were to happen, my choice would be Tetra, which would complete the Toon side of the Zelda series with both Toon Link and Toon Zelda present, although Toon Zelda would be in a form that would make her more unique as a character.

It honestly entails equivalent results. Essentially, you are implying that the franchise doesn't need another representative because it is "fine" or "complete" or "perfect" or "good enough." It is all subjective, if that is your opinion, of course it is fine. I just don't appreciate it when people use their opinions as evidence, obviously it is fallacious.

Hence, "I am of the opinion that many franchises in Brawl are perfect the way they are."

All of our troubles are truly trivial in the end, if one of us completely 100% predicts the roster, who's gonna care? It's not like they'll become a folk hero. I say we should just say we like characters and stick to it.

Please, indicate to me where I insinuated that you weren't expressing an opinion. Nowhere did I state or imply that you were, I can read my friend. In fact, I copied your entire sentence and just added "not" to it. You would think that I would have noticed the introductory clause.

I am just here for fun. I am not trying to predict the roster 100%.

So, thanks to my Internet going screwy, I haven't been online for a few days.
What happened while I was gone?
What terrible timing.

We got someone we actually expected!

I'd write songs about the man who predicted Wii Fit Trainer AND Rosalina. Truly he is the chosen one.

But yes, obviously all of this is very subjective and it's hard to suggest any series is truly ever complete as long as popular characters remain left to be added from it.

From Mario I'd say once we got Toad, Bowser Jr. and Waluigi I'd consider it complete, but others may argue for Paper Mario, Doc, Geno, Daisy, King Boo and Fawful.

Let us not even start on Pokemon...;;

Personal choices for different franchises?

Mario- Waluigi. It would be better if he would appear in a goddamn Wario game so he can be with his proper partner.
Zelda- Happy Mask Salesman (surprise)
Kirby- Adeleine (sorry Bandana buddies)
Pokemon- Goodra
DK- King K. Rool obviously
Metroid- Remember me? Ridley
Kid Icarus- Assuming Palutena is in, Viridi is my first choice for a third character.
Star Fox- Krystal
Fire Emblem- Don't even care anymore. But Roy because our boi.
Mother- Ninten. Just because.
F-Zero- Black Shadow, far better than Goroh. Preferably no one.
Yoshi- No one.
Wario- Ashley No one, unless Waluigi magically becomes a Wario character.
Pikmin- Uh, Plasm Wraith?
AC and Wii Fit- Nope.
Retros- N/A
Third parties- Hell no, only one per company.
Smash original- Get out.

That wasn't directed at you, necessarily. I was just making a statement that ran with what you were saying.
Don't hurt me, please.

Wario- Errr...Syrup?
Pikmin- Louie would probably be different if he used the bugs.
AC- Tom Nook or Isabelle would work fine.
Wii Fit- Is there even anyone else? The Balance Board?
Retros- Duck Hunt Dog.
Third parties- Pac-Man, Bomberman or Rayman are the only one's I'd be interested in. All of the mens.
Smash original -originally was just going to laugh but... Playable Bosses. In a vs. boss mode. Not as selectable characters on the roster however.

Woah, a lot of replies to that one. Though you guys must have misunderstood me, it was additional characters for existing franchises. A lot of you put new retros/third parties, when I meant another Ice Climber/G&W/ROB/Sonic/Mega Man/Metal Gear character.

Zelda- Tingle
Pokemon- Meowth
Donkey Kong- Cranky Kong
Metroid- Anthony Higgs :awesome:
Kid Icarus- Hades
Mother- Porky
Yoshi- Kamek
Wario- Captain Syrup
Pikmin- Um... the other Olimar
Animal Crossing- Tom Nook
Wii Fit- Um... Miis?
Retro- Mach Rider
Third Party- Batman
Smash Original- Master Hand
[collapse=]Tingle is fine too.
I'll never understand what's up with you and Meowth.
I'd love Cranky after K. Rool and Dixie.
And Anthony would be great after Ridley.
Hades? Alright then.
I can understand Porky, but I personally feel that Mother 1 needs someone over another character for both of the other games.
Don't understand Kamek at all, I just don't.
Does she come with Pancakes?
Louie? Or Alph?
That evil mo-[expletives] raccoon.
:urg:
Not new franchises, new reps for each series. Retro bunched together Ice Climber, G&W, R.O.B., etc.
Robin over Batman any day. :troll:
Alrighty then... [/collapse]
Mario- Paper Mario
Zelda- Ghirahim / Midna (I would be happy either way)
Kirby- Prince Fluff
Pokemon- HAWLUUUUUUUUCHAAA
Mother- Porky
Yoshi-There are Yoshi characters?
Retros-Little Mac / Mach Rider
Third parties- Wesker, Red Ring Rico, Bomberman
Smash original- Tabuu
[collapse=] Personally, Paper Mario seems like an awful idea.
I'll turn you into an Eccentric yet.
Prince what now? Oh wait...
No, Goodra.
Still prefer Mother 1 to get someone over another Mother 2/3 character.
I see what you did there, I like it.
It seems everyone is confused, not new retros, additions to retro series. Also, Mac is already in and isn't retro.
The same for third parties, not new ones, but new Sonic/Mega Man/Metal Gear characters.
Get out. :troll: [/collapse]
Oooh, not a bad topic.

Pokemon- Meowth. Abra's my favourite Pokemon ever, but he'd translate crappily to Smash.
Mother- Porky Minch. Totally different from Ness and Lucas, and mechas are cool.

Third parties- Pac-Man, Bomberman or Rayman are the only one's I'd be interested in. All of the mens.
[collapse=] What's up with Meowth?
A lot of Pokey, I'll reiterate what I said to the others: Mother 1 character > another Mother 2/3 character.
Isabelle? 10/10 would uh, I mean good choice. I think.
Did I word it badly? Not new retro or third party series, but additions to existing franchises. You're cool though because Rayman.[/collapse]
Pokemon- Miltank
DK- N/A
KI- Viridi as well.
Stairfax- Peppy Hare
Mother- Porky Minch
Retros- Famicom Four
Third Parties- Kidd Zeal/ Prometheus & Pandora

[collapse=] Wat.
What.
Yes.
Huh?
Damn, everyone loves some Pokey huh? Look at the other spoilers if you want to see reasoning for Ninten.
Double damn, I'm just going to make a note about the retro/third party thing.
...[/collapse]
Retro: Lip
3rd Party: The Doctor
[collapse=]Never seen you before, but I like you because you chose Lip. Though I didn't mean new retros, as my note says.
And "The Doctor," the hell?[/collapse]
Zelda- Impa.
Kirby- Bandana Dee, yay.
Mother- Porky.
Retros- Lip.
Third parties- Bomberman.
[collapse=]Obviously. :troll:
No love for Mother 1.
Lip gets an instant plus from me, but see my note about the retros/third parties. [/collapse]

I've been inclined to care less about DK reps now. If we get something, then peachy. Though I don't really care about more DK reps personally. DISCLAIMER: I still love the series as a whole.

I love the series, I just don't really feel as though the series needs another character either. I mean, I am a King K. Rool fan, but I am not really excited about the notion of him in Smash. Dixie Kong is okay, I just don't feel as though she offers anything entirely unique. Cranky Kong is cool though. :smirk:

Pokemon - Sylveon (a 6th generation rep would be great. Especially one that can show off the first new type addition since Gen 2)
DK - Dixie Kong (Tropical Freeze, baby)
Metroid - Ridley (best possible choice for the series, even if I don't care about him)
Kid Icarus - Palutena (just in case if the leak is fake) Medusa (if it's real)
Fire Emblem - ...Chrom? (Eh, don't know much about the characters in this game...)
Mother - Paula (or maybe Kumatora)
F-Zero - Samurai Goroh
StarFox - Slippy
Yoshi - Kamek
Wario - None
Pikmin - None
AC & Wii Fit - None
Retros - Mach Rider
Third Parties - None
Smash Original - **** that ****.

ACH! I FORGOT MACH RIDER.

[collapse=] What's up with Meowth?
A lot of Pokey, I'll reiterate what I said to the others: Mother 1 character > another Mother 2/3 character.
Isabelle? 10/10 would uh, I mean good choice. I think.
Did I word it badly? Not new retro or third party series, but additions to existing franchises. You're cool though because Rayman.
[/collapse]
Meowth is just one of the few Pokemon I'd consider an All Star amongst the 700+ now. Yes, the anime counts for a lot of it(like 15+ years now hasn't it been? He deserves it if only for his dedication to promote the games), but most know of Meowth as a result. Also I imagine he'd be super speedy with claw strikes and maybe some sneaky attacks...if we could have a Mecha Meowth Final Smash...well, it'd be a dream basically. A pipe dream, but a dream anyway.

Porky for me is superior because he covers both Mother 2 and Mother 3. Yes, this is the main reason...also because he's not another psychic kid. I can see the reasoning behind Ninten; completion, but I'm not sure if the striking similarity to Ness would bode well for me personally. Also he'd almost definitely have a clone-semi clone moveset.

Isabelle for New Leaf. Or Nook if we want nostalgia. I'd be cool with both.

Yes, I genuinely got confused. I really don't want anyone else from Ice Climbers, G+W, Gyromite or Metal Gear. I'm in two minds about Sonic, as unpopular as that opinion will be...I just can't get past my nostalgia for Tails(first video game character I ever played as). But, yeah Rayman!

Personally, Paper Mario seems like an awful idea.
I'll turn you into an Eccentric yet.
Prince what now? Oh wait...
No, Goodra.
Still prefer Mother 1 to get someone over another Mother 2/3 character.
I see what you did there, I like it.
It seems everyone is confused, not new retros, additions to retro series. Also, Mac is already in and isn't retro.
The same for third parties, not new ones, but new Sonic/Mega Man/Metal Gear characters.
Get out. :troll:

Paper Mario is a huge piece of my childhood, there's no one else I'd rather have.
I would laugh my ass off if the Mask Salesman got in, and subsequently main him forever.
Fresh Prince.
You can't grasp the Lucha.
Not to savvy on Mother, just know that Porky is a mech-piloting dork.
No, seriously, what's a Yoshi?
Oh, then: King Hippo, Condor (Ice Climbers), Mrs. Game & Watch
Oh well then I don't care as much. Fine: Blaze the Cat, Zero, Raiden
Have to agree with Saturn on something.

Toad, Syrup, Goroh, Vaati AND likes Sabrina. KingShadow's a pretty cool guy, all my respects. Makes me regret that tense moment we had months back about Shadow the Hedgehog now.

From Doctor Who. There was a Doctor Who game on DS, and one on Wii. He totally counts as a third party. Ones that are from series already in Smash, no Retro, and Big Boss for third party.
Well, the respect gained from Lip just shot down immediately due to a non video game character.

Mario: Paper Mario
Mother: Porky
Megaman: Zero
Sonic the Hedgehog: Knuckles
Those are pretty much the only franchises I care about.
I like the ones I took out, but not so much the rest. Pokey is good though sort of, just prefer if Mother 1 got some attention.

Pokemon - Sylveon (a 6th generation rep would be great. Especially one that can show off the first new type addition since Gen 2)
Mother - Paula (or maybe Kumatora)
F-Zero - Samurai Goroh
Yoshi - Kamek
I liked your choices the most, particularly the epic nope streak at the end. Bit iffy on the ones I left, see my responses in regard to Mother above.

Star Fox: No one, but if I had to, Peppy. (Just because of "barrel roll")

Chilling out and relaxing? :troll:
Well, I thought this was rare.
He's my second choice, but ****ing kawaii but badass goo dragon.
I'll give you that. Go play EarthBound though.
A Yoshi's about seven or eight.
Laughing at Condor and Mrs. Game & Watch. Also the fact that you're still calling Punch Out retro.
Those third party choices gave me cancer though. So does Saturn.

Zelda:Impa.
DK:Tie beetween K.Rool or Dixie. I thing only one should make it.
Kirby:Bandana, but we don't need another that much.
Metroid:Ridley!
Yoshi:Ummm...pass. (They need another, but Kamek is next best, and that's like having a generic Mario enemy playable)
KI: Palutena.
F-Zero:Goroh.

That's all I find with chances. Not doing every series, just ones that I think should have another. (Kirby I'm neutral on.)
