Official DLC Character Discussion Thread - Read the new sticky/announcement

[Pakky]

Kid icarus and rayman confirmed same universe

Spoiler

Ok so i hate the idea of AT dlc. But this guy is the exception. I still think the fact this guy doesnt appear as a smash run enemy or an AT or even a trophy to my knowledge is a crime

Edit

and close your spoilers

Eggplant Wizard aka a better and more interesting character than Dark Pit. Him and Medusa would have been perfect alongside Palutena but oh no we can't have that. Oh wait a minute Medusa is too big

 

[Kenith]

This talk of Eggplant Wizard reminds me of Smash Kingdom.
The Wizard was so annoying Mewtwo exploded him with his mind causing the other villains to fire him from Brawl.

I wonder if anyone else remembers those videos from Newgrounds...

 

[Blue_Sword_Edge]

I'd like to see a Square Enix character in Smash for Wii U/3DS as DLC. Final Fantasy's got Cloud Strife and Terra Branford, both who are iconic, that are worth considering. If not them, a Black Mage, both mascots of moogles and chocobos, and other characters like Bartz Klauser, and Cecil are others to consider. Crono from Chrono Trigger is an option. From the Enix side, I can only think of Slime from Dragon Quest. Konami and Square Enix getting into Smash for Wii U/3DS would complete third party entries in the Smash series for me.

 

[Pakky]

Chocobo...plz...
also

 

[Blue_Sword_Edge]

I'd personally don't want Chocobos. I'd choose anything Square over a chocobo. But, some would consider it.

Fair enough, I think Dark mage would be a great choice. I'm not so sure about Cloud, but it would make sense. Sora, is a no. Geno wouldn't be bad either really, he's like half way there with being from a Nintendo game and all.

Looking back a Smash Kingdom I must say, wow how the times have changed, it's amazing how jokes became dreams, then those dreams became realities, and or possibilities.

 

[Aetheri]

But then he didn't take off in a spaceship into space did he?

STRIKE HIM FROM THE RECORD. HE DOES NOT FIT INTO THAT NICHE QUESTION.

Wolf however, is a perfectly acceptable example. As are any other Pikmin captains.

Ah...but he took off 'from' a spaceship! Therefore he still qualifies

 

[Geno Boost]

Why does everybody forget that White Mage exist? What's wrong about her? Both White Mage and Black Mage did the same thing in SE history so what really make Black Mage better than her?
I guess cool guys get in before the cute guys, right?

I'd personally don't want Chocobos. I'd choose anything Square over a chocobo. But, some would consider it.

my pick would be Geno and Black Mage I feel they are the best choices, I really don't care about other square Enix character (but Crono and Slime would be fine)

Exactly. The same reason Geno has plenty of supporters but Mallow has almost none.

How?! Because of his design made him more popular than White Mage?

 

[Kenith]

Speaking of Black Mage, can I just say that disregarding the anime characters and Sora (though I don't mind them) SSF2's exclusive characters are awesome?

Black Mage, Isaac, and Chibi-Robo are all true to their series, are given similar attention to actual characters made by Sakurai, and most importantly, seem fun.

All I remember from that was vs fight that ended up being both of them vs Master Hand

He still HAS a Spaceship, he doesn't CARRY the rest of the pirates

 

[Wintropy]

Y'know who else has a cool spaceship?

Wonder Red.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Chocobo...plz...
also

Holy Nostalgia batman.
good times good times.

Funny that K rool of all characters is mentioned in there but, ironically, heavily insulted and doesnt make it in. Also Vaati is in there so a certain scatman probably loves it.

 

[YoshiandToad]

He still HAS a Spaceship, he doesn't CARRY the rest of the pirates

But he's still not riding in the spaceship into space which was the original line.

Please understand, Ridley doesn't fit in this catogary.

Disclaimer: This is not a 2Big joke.

Ah...but he took off 'from' a spaceship! Therefore he still qualifies

That's quite a stretch. Like a huge stretch. But with Ridley it's understandable.

Disclaimer: This IS a 2Big joke.

 

[Bowserlick]

I think if King K. Rool makes the cut, he will be heavier than Bowser.

How do you offset this? Maybe he is extraordinarily heavy, but has no tradition third Up B jump and has less KO than the other Super Heavies.

He's actually been in a spaceship twice, his first one fell on him and his second one was in ZM.

This sounds like a horrible idea and could make him one of the worst characters in the game. Someone even heavier than Bowser is going to fall much harder than a lightweight. At most King K. Rool should only be slightly heavier but I think he should be the second heaviest.

Yeah this, him sinking like a boulder without the power to back it up is terrible balancing.
Unless he has a million projectiles (which seems to be the consensus with his movesets anyway)

Andy from Advance Wars.

And now I have one more person to add to my already massive list.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Who do you think would fit that role?

. . . The engineer from TF2? and we've gone full circle

Slippy Toad?

 

[Fatmanonice]

On the topic of Toad, it makes me wonder if they can implement a character in Smash with a craptastic jump and the character not wind up being total garbage. I say this because I wonder how close they'd want to stay to the source material if they decided to make Captain Toad a character. I suppose they could find ways to make up for it but jumping ability and aerial mobility are such a big part of what determines what makes a character good or bad in Smash that it would be an uphill challenge from the get-go if Toad kept these traits. Whenever I picture Toad in Smash, I typically picture his SMB2 incarnation but I could see them mashing this and Fuhrer Toad together so the character is actually functional.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Damn it, I knew that I forget Star Fox. Might as well make that list even bigger.
