The main issue is that Nintendo can't seem to have successful mini-robot brands anymore, first or third party, between CR being cancelled, Danball Senki's 3DS port bombing and Medarot's main developer being shuttered, while there's another developer's failed attempt at getting Medarot to cater to the moe audience.
The only thing is that new mech action Nintendo game trailer that they released not too long ago. Sadly, no CR but at least those are mechs.
Just for the ironic meme, it may be worth it.
Daemon X Machina does seem promising enough, I'm watching that closely.The only thing is that new mech action Nintendo game trailer that they released not too long ago. Sadly, no CR but at least those are mechs.

Let's hope one day, Nintendo can reboot the franchise.
It does look cool, besides like mechs are always cool in media so it should be no surprise for it to be in this case.
For real, memes are great for a character's popularity. Bad attention will get fans to speak out more often, namedrops make people aware; I'd 100% love for "Ray is too small" to happen.
This is a weird list of results right here. No Skull Kid, or any other LoZ characters at all, no Pokemon outside of Pichu, Wonder Red hasn't been this high in awhile, Ashley is noticeably absent. I don't see this poll being accurate in the least if I'm being honest.
Absolutely not! The big gimmick of CR is that they're all super small, but they're super small compared to their commanders. So the CR rep should be as small as the assist trophy because a very small character would be super interesting, especially if they act as a sort of pixie character with only projectiles.
Hm. I'm not too sure if a small character would work in smash.
Perhaps not, but it'd be unique! Though again, I'd be fine with Ray returning as an assist trophy.
Anything relating to CR would be great.
Wow, yikes. Looking at them side by side, Ray 01 looks way better. It's also the only one I've played. I never played Arena because I never had an original DS. Plus, it was the first outside of Japan so it has that going for it.If we get Ray, which model do you think we would get? Mk III or 01? I think 01 is the better looking as a personal preference.
If we're talking how iconic the designs are, at least in Japan its the Mk. III. The series has for the most part been in that cartoon style. While I personally love Ray 01and his design, the Cartoony designs of arena and such are charming too.
Arena was my introduction to the franchise, so I’m partial to III.If we get Ray, which model do you think we would get? Mk III or 01? I think 01 is the better looking as a personal preference.

I personally wouldn't expect a lot.
From experience, I try to expect NOTHING from Nintendo. ^^'
I mean, Isaac was in the top 5.
Well, if it's more historically accurate and frankly, probably easier since it's a simpler design, Ray Mk III is perfectly fine by me. I just want him to exist.
I agree that he definitely shouldn't be as small as Olimar, but I also don't want him to be human-sized. Definitely keep the smaller feel I think, but without going to the point of absurdity. The novelty would wear off pretty quick. Somewhere around Villager or Inkling height would be best in my opinion, especially since he'd probably be a pretty fast character, it would make sense to be smaller and somewhat light. I don't want him to be as tall as Luigi or Peach, that's for sure.
Personally, I'd like the "Make all of Ray's models available via alts." option, but I don't know if that would work (Hitboxes, don't you know). That said, I think I'll go with MK III since that was in Brawl, and I rather enjoy Arena. Of course, I'd have virtually NO problem with Ray 01 in Smash.If we get Ray, which model do you think we would get? Mk III or 01? I think 01 is the better looking as a personal preference.
Yeah I’d be down for that. To me it depends on the design. If it’s MK III, I’d actually prefer the size you suggested. But if they go with the more realistic model from Battle Revolution, I think it would look a lot better standing at a more adult human height. That’s just me though.
That would definitely be the best case scenario. Ray Mk. III or Ray 01 is announced and you can play as, like, all the Ray's throughout the years as alts.
Ray 01 has a huge mixed reception by it's japanese fanbase. That's why with Arena, they went back to the series art style.
Actually, I wouldn't mind this myself. MK III being about one of the Smash children's height and 01 being about Link's height.
Sakurai's even the kind of guy that seems to REAAALLY do his homework in regards to stuff like this, so I can totally see him wanting to do this (Make every Ray model playable via alt. skin) in regards to helping Custom Robo celebrate its history.

has said, Battle Revolution didn't do so hot in the West, so I see MK III being the default rep for a variety of reasons: Closer to what the Japanese seem to like, was in Brawl, etc.
Actually, i said that Battle Revolution had a mixed reception in japan. But you are right about BR not doing "hot" here either.As
Whoops! Sorry, I'm just really tired. I meant to say that JAPAN is where Battle Revolution didn't do so hot, and that's why MK III has a more simplified design. Although, I am aware of the game not doing great here either. Heaven knows it did better than in Japan, but not by that much...
It's a shame that series never took off after it was localized in the west. Nintendo killing i and ignoring it for so long has lessened the chances of it coming back.
Yeah, and if that 4chan post above is true, Custom Robo's chances of being revived by its developers is depressigly low. Like, my GOD. You could say that NOISE took a real...NOISE-dive.It's a shame that series never took off after it was localized in the west.

LMAO.
