What I'm Arguing with you(and everybody else) on is
All PS2-Resident Evil could work, as well as Katamari Damaci(I would love to see that series on the Wii) could work as an Item or Super Attack. Rachet and Klank=No, Crash Bandicoot=No, Spyro=No, Dante=Could work, but No.
Pokemon= Pichu could definitely make use of a superpowerful attack with Plusle and Minun that heals him, making him more balanced. Raichu with the super attacks already in is just redundant, Give us a Surfing Pikachu!
Sonic: The Classic Mario vs Sonic rivalry is already a huge aspect of Nintendo culture, the only reason why all of us are so upset is the EGM joke. Grow up, Melee already loses it's Nintendo-ness after you play it a billion times, and becomes more of a serious tournament game like Street Fighter, instead of the fun-for-all party game like the original Smash Bros was. They should focus on making Brawl a mix of the 2 flavors, with some 3rd party characters for added spice.
Pacman-They could give him a unique moveset like what they did Ice Climbers or Mr Game and Watch. After all, Nintendo needs to reward Namco for all the work they've done on several games, like Star Fox Assault and Mario Baseball
Megaman-He's been on so many friggen NES and SNES games, that it's inevitable
All Comics-Popeye was once a Nintendo character, but I don't see him in Brawl, since Mr. Game and Watch is very much like Popeye.
Square-Enix=Old School Final Fantasies and Chrono Trigger could work. Particularly Kefka(Kefka vs Pit or Kefka vs Ganondorf), Cecil(transform between Dark Knight and Paladin), Kain(or Terra and Celes)( we need a Dragoon that's also a Spear-user), and Mog for Final Fantasy is what I want.
What I don't want is:
Blaziken-Too much like Captain Falcon on many areas
All Anime-(Super Saiyan)Goku with (Super) Sonic possibly already in would be redundant and a waste of programming time and energy
All Street Fighter/Other fighting games- Mario already has Ryu's Shotokan, which makes
Street Fighter characters redundant. Dhalsim would have way too much range with his attacks. Spiderman=No
Cloud and Sephiroth- I personally am very much divided on Cloud and Sephiroth, but then again, weren't they once in Ehrgeiz? Kefka seems to be more of the type of character for Brawl and they could Sora in a pun, but they would extremely serious legal problems. Old School Final Fantasies need more recognition since they built the series and right now, the new Final Fantasy's losing more of it's heart and soul that it once had in.
Hammer Bros-Redundant and stupid; Ice Climbers take up way too much of the space for Hammer Bros, making them a waste
Clones-They're just Fillers, nothing more. Hector as a character would introduce Eliwood and Lyn(which are clones) in, so I'd think Greil's better. We don't need Daisy in it, Captain Syrup would be so much better than Waluigi, and would be an excellent partner for Wario. Shadow the Hedgehog? No, put Tails, Knuckles, and Dr.Robotnik in instead, at least they're from the Genesis vs SNES years.
