Here's the keys - make a crossover fighter with [INSERT IP HERE].

[PinkFlare]

Well, rather annoyingly the image I provided (Edit: for the base roster) failed and I had to go back to fix it, and I couldn't re-upload it as a PDF, so I had to convert it to a JPG, overall a weird issue.

Anyway, after quite some time I made a 12-Character DLC Line-Up to follow up this roster; I've had this line-up for a long time but never made a visual for it until recently.

Let me know what y'all think!

I guess with all the hype around Stellar Blade finally being out (and good) I'll have to find some way to shove Eve into here lol

Fortnite: Zero Fighters

 

[JOJONumber691]

I’ve had an idea for a bit known as Marvel vs Capcom Multiverse. The whole gimmick of this game is that, like the Spiderverse films, every universe is in a different art style. This allows for a lot of creative options. As for the roster, starting with Capcom:

• Ryu
• Chun-Li
• Akuma (if Capcom wants him as DLC replace with Rashid)
• Juri (all taken from Street Fighter 6)
• Morrigan (both Darkstalkers look closest to the Xrd Games, cartoony, but still anime)
• Anita (post Darkstalkers 3, using her design from the PS2’s Darkstalkers Collection, and a moveset based around exorcisms)
• Akira (Rival Schools, though due to sharing a universe would be updated to look realistic like the SF Cast, though I would personally want her to look like her SFV incarnation)
• Leon
• Lady Dimitriscu
• Wesker (is actually from the original RE Universe, and this is acknowledged in game)
• Mega Man X (animated like ArcSys)
• Tron Bonne (low poly like the Legends games are iconic for)
• Phoenix Wright
• Franziska Von Karma (both look like the Ace Attorney Remasters)
• Dante
• Nero
• Rajang
• Strider (looks like a 90’s Anime)
• Captain Commando (looks like a 90’s Superhero Cartoon)
• Ruby Heart (looks like Bengus’ art for Marvel 2)

Anyways, As for Marvel, I’m going to list them per universe they’re from:
616, which looks most similar to Marvel 3

• Captain America
• Ms. Marvel
• Hulk
• Cable
• Doctor Strange
• Thor
• Doctor Doom
• Cable

The MCU, because let’s face it, it’s inevitable for this to get something in a new Versus game. Same realistic art style as the ones I don’t specify.

• War Machine
• Star Lord
• Loki
• Thanos

Spiderverse, using pretty much the same style as those films

• Spider-Man (1610)
• Spider-Man 2099
• The Spot

Other Marvel Media

• Venom (Tom Hardy)
• Deadpool (Deadpool Movies)
• Gambit (X-Men 97, aka the TV Show)

Not finalized yet, so assume they’re 616 for now

• Wolverine
• Magneto
• Storm (the GOAT!)

I also have some ideas for DLC, including characters like Japanese Spider-Man and Linn Kurosawa, but besides them and a couple other ideas the DLC ain’t finalized.

 

[KneeOfJustice99]

This probably looks pretty bad right after Faz's 3-man roster, but it's something I've been sat on for a minute, so maybe this is a good time to drop it.

Specifically? Sakurai's stated in the past that one of his major inspirations behind the Smash series was SNK's The King of Fighters, and this concept basically just asks the question of how Smash 64's roster would look if it also had 8 themed trios on the roster overall. Probably a little unrealistic, but I've kept specifically to stuff that exists during this era.

Looks a little weird? Well, let's delve into it.

1. Team Mushroom Kingdom (consisting of Mario, Peach and Toad) is obviously the obligatory Mario-themed team. I felt that around this time, Luigi probably wouldn't have as much unique moveset potential - and Toad, being Peach's retainer, feels like a logical candidate.)
2. Team Hyrulean Guard (consisting of Link, Zelda and Impa) is a Zelda-themed team based on Ocarina of Time. Obviously Link and Zelda are here, but also Impa, who I'd suggest would have a similar concept to Sheik in how she plays overall.
3. Team Kanto (consisting of Pikachu, Charizard and Clefairy) is the obligatory Pokemon-themed team. Obviously Pikachu's here as the icon, but Charizard's also here as a box-art starter... and Clefairy, while a little weird, was originally planned for Smash 64 but replaced with Jigglypuff. Metronome could be such a cool move to work with, considering her Melee trophy!
4. Team Treetop Trio (consisting of Donkey Kong, Lip and Yoshi) is our first team centred around uniting themes as opposed to just a franchise - specifically, characters associated with forests or jungles. It helps a lot that Donkey Kong and Yoshi are also Mario spinoffs, and then Lip's here as a forest fairy. Maybe Yoshi's connection to this is a little on the looser side, but he's still pretty attuned with nature, so I think it fits.
5. Team Deep Space (consisting of Samus, Kirby and Fox) is our second "concept team", centred this time around space travellers, hence the lineup we have. I originally considered making this "Team Bounty Hunters" with Samus, Captain Falcon and Wolf, but I think this lineup is a little more iconic overall.
6. Team Extreme Sports (consisting of Captain Falcon, Akari Hayami and Lark) is a funky little stand-in for KoF '94's Team American Sports, themed around Nintendo's different sports-themed franchises around this time. Well... sort of. Originally, Akari was joined by her brother Ryota, but this lineup instead represents F-Zero (which is considered a sport in-universe), 1080° is obviously centred around snowboarding, then Pilotwings on air sports. Note - Akari's design isn't based on Avalanche on the basis of that game not existing yet. It's based on Snowboarding.
7. Team Trouble Kings (consisting of Bowser, Ganondorf and King Dedede) is inspired by the Brawl mission of the same name and lineup, with the uniting theme of the trio all being kings who are also villains in their home series. Dedede's probably the exception to this, but I think his more laid-back nature would really give him a neat personality to bounce off Bowser's and Ganondorf's more outright evil characterisations.
8. Team Rivals (consisting of Wario, Meta Knight and Wolf) is loosely inspired by Kof '95's team of the same name in concept, but in practice, it differs pretty significantly. Wario's intended as a rival to Mario, Meta Knight to Kirby, and Wolf to Fox. Plus, I think their personalities would be pretty fun to play around with - Meta Knight's chivalry would bounce off Wario's greed and Wolf's slightly obsessive nature really well in my mind.

I actually had a lot of other ideas of how to line this up, both for concepts and characters, but this could be worse! Some of these, actually, were;

• The aforementioned Team Bounty Hunters (Samus, Wolf and Captain Falcon), which pretty much got replaced with Deep Space because I felt it'd be a more iconic lineup.
• Team Arcade Icons (Donkey Kong Jr., Little Mac, Wild Gunman), a team that stuck around for a while before I decided that the characters here would probably be more interesting if they appeared in a future title. Plus, Extreme Sports' more recent focus kind of replaced this group too.
• Team Brawlers (A fighting-type Pokemon, Little Mac, and Sukapon), which was intended to be a team made of characters who actually fight in hand-to-hand combat. Ended up getting cut and replaced with Extreme Sports as a more interesting lineup. The Pokemon considered here were either Machamp, Hitmonchan or Poliwrath.
• Team Pop Star, which would consist of the three included Kirby characters - though they ended up working better split across the cast, with Kirby in Deep Space, Dedede with the Trouble Kings, and Meta Knight with the Rivals.
• Team Fantasy (Marth, Pit and Lip), a team originally planned with the loose theme of "fantasy". I didn't really feel this team gelled well due to a pretty vague, generalised theme, so this group effectively got replaced with Treetop Trio.
• Team Super Brothers (Mario, Luigi and Wario), a weirder team that'd be themed around the three "plumbers" that exist in the main series thus far. That said, this didn't last long, and got effectively superceded with Mushroom Kingdom pretty quickly.

I might do another one of these for Melee at some point - it was a ton of fun! Also, as for the final boss... I mean, Master Hand works well, but I think Ridley would be a neat secret boss.

Sequel time! This sort of presumes a similar-ish release period to Melee but maintains the general basic same concepts as the last game - that is, characters who don't exist yet can't be included, but development isn't too much of a consideration. With that in mind, let's see what's changed...

There's obviously quite a few prominent changes here, including the addition of an additional team bringing our total to 9, so let's take a look at them.

1. Team Mushroom Kingdom (Mario, Peach, Luigi) returns with Toad being replaced with a decloned Luigi, taking inspiration from a variety of sources. I'm not sure if we could actually pull from Luigi's Mansion quite yet, but I'd presume it's possible as a grab to really let the trio stand out. Otherwise, Mario and Peach remain from the previous lineup, and Toad's cut.
2. Team League Lineup (Pikachu, Togepi, Charizard) is essentially a new flavour of last game's Team Kanto, this time with a remixed concept - basically, the idea is that all of these Pokemon are owned by a single trainer, hence it being their "League Lineup". Togepi effectively replaces Clefairy for a few reasons, partially because it can keep a few moves like Metronome, and also because it's a pretty prominent Pokemon in the anime and a Gen 2 rep.
3. Team Pop Star (Kirby, King Dedede, Meta Knight) are finally assembled after being fragmented in the previous game, obviously all being connected by being Kirby characters who've worked together before in games like Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards.
4. Team Legendary Heroes (Link, Isaac, Pit) is sort of a remixed interpretation of Team Fantasy, with the uniting theme of its members being fantasy-based heroes of some kind. The main Triforce Trio are split across teams this time around, and the choices of Isaac and Pit are as a promotional pick and a retro rep respectively.
5. Team Deep Space (Samus, Captain Falcon, Fox) is slightly altered to replace Kirby with Team Extreme Sports' Captain Falcon, but otherwise remains as a pretty solid team theme. I considered including Olimar here, but I felt it'd be a little too soon to include him with Isaac already existing as a promotional pick.
6. Team Forest Friends (Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Yoshi) is more specifically themed around Mario spinoffs this time around while maintaining the same forest/jungle theme overall. Diddy Kong's a new character who makes sense to pair with Donkey Kong, but replaces Lip in the process.
7. Team Wisdom (Zelda, Marth, Mewtwo) is a team focused on the concept of "wisdom" - Zelda bears the Triforce of Wisdom, Marth is a skilled strategist, and Mewtwo is literally psychic. Marth was originally in Team Legendary Heroes, but given I wanted to include Mewtwo somewhere, I felt this lineup of intelligent strategists would make a lot of sense and lend to some fun interactions.
8. Team Rivals (Wario, Meowth, Wolf) gets slightly remixed due to Meta Knight being in Team Pop Star, gaining Meowth as a result (who'd be intended as Pikachu's rival.) Plus, I think it'd be fun to have his personality inspired by the anime, as it'd again bounce really well off Wario and Wolf in my mind. And... it could be fun if Wario and Wolf have a bit of a grudge against Meta Knight for ditching them to join his own rival, Kirby, in Team Pop Star.
9. Team Dark Despots (Bowser, Ganondorf, Ridley) is a slightly remixed interpretation of Team Trouble Kings, mostly because of Dedede also being in Team Pop Star, so I opted to replace him with a boss from the previous game - Ridley. Otherwise, the uniting theme of all of these characters being villainous is my main thought process... and come to think of it, it'd be interesting to see how Bowser reacts to working with these two incredibly evil characters.

Unfortunately, there's been a lot of cuts in the process - losing Toad, Impa, Clefairy, Lip, Akari and Lark - but I think their replacements - Luigi, Togepi, Isaac, Pit, Diddy Kong, Marth, Mewtwo, Meowth and Ridley - make up for this a little. Plus, a revolving lineup of teams seems like an interesting way to keep speculation fresh.

That being said, I'd also want to include a similar custom team system to the KoF series here, with certain character lineups still getting a unique team name and maybe even unique arcade mode endings. There's probably quite a lot of obvious ones to consider, but here's some;

• Team Seven Stars (Mario, Peach, Bowser) - Themed after the trio's appearance in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.
• Team Triforce Trio (Link, Zelda, Ganondorf) - Themed after the bearers of each piece of the Triforce - Courage, Wisdom, and Power.
• Team Trouble Kings (Bowser, Ganondorf, King Dedede) - Returning from the previous game, all villains who are also kings.
• Team Bounty Hunters (Samus, Captain Falcon, Wolf) - A trio of bounty hunters, or characters in similar occupations.
• Team Rapid Racers (Mario, Captain Falcon, Diddy Kong) - All of them are icons of racing games - Mario Kart, F-Zero, and Diddy Kong Racing.
• Team Royal Flush (Peach, King Dedede, Zelda) - A trio of (mostly) good-aligned royalty.
• Team Strategist Soldiers (Pit, Marth, Ganondorf) - A team of characters who all hold high-ranking positions in a military force.
• Team Lizard League (Charizard, Yoshi, Ridley) - Characters who are either dragons or dinosaurs.
• Team Pesky Plumbers (Mario, Luigi, Wario) - An unlikely trio of "plumbers", even if Wario doesn't technically fill that role.

There's probably a few fun combinations I've not thought of, but these are just some that come to mind! Also, with Ridley now being in a playable state, I'd suggest that this game's secret boss could probably be Marx, from Kirby Super Star. He's got a similar space-based origin and theming, but I also think he'd be a lot of fun to fight against. (Obviously, Master Hand returns too.)

[Pupp135]

Looking back on this, here’s my most recent attempt at making an SSB roster had started today.

Spoiler: Roster

(DJ Octavio)
(Noah)

Reasons
I’ll start off with Mario, Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, and Splatoon as they are Nintendo’s primary franchises (barring Pokemon, but I’ll get to that later). For these franchises, I could see them all having at least two or three fighters, Super Mario gets the original Mario
Party playable cast and Bowser, Legend of Zelda gets at least two of the triforce, Animal Crossing gets Villager and Isabelle given their prominence and appearance in Mario Kart 8, and Splatoon gets Inkling and DJ Octavio in this scenario.
Next, I’ll go into relevant franchises that somewhat hinge on SSB’s history. In this case, I’d assume at least Pikmin, Metroid, Kirby, and Mii would be represented with a playable fighter.
Now, I’ll go into the more complex series: Fire Emblem and Pokemon. In the case of Fire Emblem, I still think Balzing sword and Sacred Stones would be released internationally based on Advance Wars’ sales, but I think that Telius snd Shadow Dragon would be Japanese exclusive as the GBA games would’ve fared worse without Melee. I still think Awakening would’ve saved the series as its success didn’t seem to hinge of Brawl or For. In this case, I’ll choose Chrom or Lucina, who would probably be the closest thing to a mascot.
For Xenoblade, it seems that it’s success was mostly independent of SSBFor, so I’ll keep a character here. I’ll make a guess and say that they’ll go with a newer character, and I’ll choose Noah.
For the last fighter, I’ll choose Min Min as I think Nintendo would want to show off ARMS.
In the case of Pokemon, I’d think The Pokemon Company would want to wait before allowing any pokemon to join the roster at first.
DLC: DLC is a risky move, but I think this list of 5 fighters would work well.
Fox gives a dormant, yet historically significant franchise a chance.
Depending on the success of this game, I think the Pokemon Company would be open to DLC, and I’ll have Pikachu and Charizard as a packaged deal here.
To help build third party relationships, Sonic and Pac-Man join.

Also, I thought it would be cool to hypothesize what would’ve happened if Melee was ported to the Wii. In this case, I’m assuming the Melee port would only contain online compatibility and bug fixes.

Spoiler: SSB For 3DS (2012ish)

This one was kind of weird to approach as I don’t know exactly how obscure franchises would be approached here. In this case, Melee had 26 fighters, and I do not imagine more than 10 newcomers, so I’ll give myself 30 fighters (treating Mii Fighters as 1).
Starting with cuts, I assume that at least Dr. Mario, Roy, Pichu, and Ice Climbers will be cut. The first three would likely be low priority, and it‘s been documented that Ice Climbers don’t work on the 3DS. In terms of other cuts, I’m only unsure about Jigglypuff and Mewtwo. I’ll exclude them for now as I don’t know if Mewtwo’s code was still unusable outside of Melee, and Jigglypuff would probably be low priority.
From the Legend of Zelda, I guess that all Melee fighters will return as Ocarina of Time was relevant again, and I don’t see Sheik getting cut if they already made a lot of work before splitting the transforming gimmick.
In terms of newcomers, I think the selection will mostly be simple: Wario, Diddy Kong, King Dedede, Charizard (I think Pokemon Company would want this), Villager, Olimar, Mii Fighters, Sonic, Pac-Man.
As the last newcomer, I think I could see Rosalina join.

Spoiler: SSB For Wii U (2014)

In this case, I don’t really see much of a need to cut anyone as the characters are prominent enough to stay or have been series staples at this point. In terms of additions, I’ll guess that Mewtwo, Jigglypuff, and Ice Climbers return. For newcomers, I’d guess that Bowser Jr., Chrom, Meta Knight, Greninja, Ryu, and Bayonetta join.
As DLC is a risky move, I don’t think there’d be many characters (I’ll give myself 5). Roy is there to give a preliminary test. I think Mega Man’s requests may be more apparent at this point. Inkling and Corrin are here for promotional reasons.

Spoiler: SSB For Nintendo Switch (2018)

(Toad)





For convenience, I’m just going to assume that Everyone is Here is implemented. For newcomers, I guess that Toad, King K. Rool, Ridley, Incinoroar?, Isabelle, and Simon join.
For DLC, I guess Nintendo would choose similar newcomers to what actually happened, but I don’t think the Sora instance would’ve happened.

Goes a bit hard on disney characters when I'd personally assume they'd lean more on their original characters

well the reason it was changed to FF was cause Nomura didn’t like the idea of Disney characters fighting so it sounded like the idea was mostly Disney. plus the heroes vs villains thing works better with the Disney characters as at the time there weren’t as many connections back then

In case you haven't heard, there's a new channel coming next month. It's called MeTV Toons, and it'll be over-the-air instead of cable.

And they have a website, to boot!

MeTV Toons Television Network – The greatest classic animation of all time

MeTV Toons is the new TV destination featuring the greatest classic animation of all time. We are glad you are here! Look for us beginning June 25th!

metvtoons.com

Naturally, given all that they have to offer, I thought I'd make a platform fighter centered around all of them. The problem is, I don't know how to make a legit roster picture, so a grid should have to do for now.

Bugs Bunny	Omi	Fred Flintstone	**** Dastardly	Bullwinkle
Duck Dodgers	Beetlejuice	George Jetson	Papa Smurf	Underdog
Sylvester and Tweety	Quicksilver (SilverHawks)	Yogi Bear	Dynomutt	Inspector Gadget

Machamp

I know there’s small odds of it being female, but still feels like an odd choice considering its design. Honestly I think there should be another that’s 100% female like Kangaskhan, Lilligant, Tinkaton or Ogerpon. Gardevoir also feels like a weird omission here

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

I know there’s small odds of it being female, but still feels like an odd choice considering its design.

That was why I chose it.

 

[Champion of Hyrule]

That was why I chose it.

I can’t believe you would have something as INDECENT as a woman showing her bare chest!!!

 

[MartianSnake]

Quick little thing, a few days ago I was talking with some people about what if smash was just mario. Here's the roster I came up with, with intent to be realistic.

This is Super Mario Smash! A Nintendo 64 game, set in a universe where Nintendo only approved the use of Mario and Mario adjacent characters for the revolutionary platform fighter.

Starting characters:
Mario
Luigi
Peach
Bowser
Yoshi
Donkey Kong
Wario
Toad

Unlockable characters:
Metal Mario
Koopa Troopa
Kamek
Donkey Kong Jr.

As you can see, the starting roster is literally just the Mario Kart 64 roster. Kamek was almost in kart 64, hence his appearance here. Koopa Troopa is also in through Mario Kart, so is DK JR to a degree. But he can also be a clone for DK. DK Jr appeared in Mario Tennis a year later, so he wasn't quite retired yet.

Metal Mario might seem like a weird choice, but he was in Mario Golf. I'm also really fond of the idea of a Mario clone that can't shoot a projectile or use a cape.

Daisy and Birdo wouldn't be properly reintroduced until Mario Tennis.
Waluigi didn't exist yet.
And mario spinoffs didn't use Diddy Kong yet.

Might do mario melee later.

 

[Champion of Hyrule]

I made an idea for a new Sonic & Sega Racing game, the twist being it’s also a sort of successor to Team Sonic Racing as well, being a racer made up of teams of three characters. I’ll try to give each series a good amount of characters while representing as much Sega series I can. It’s uh… gonna be difficult in a roster like this with only 21 characters tho. There are some notable absences but hey it’s a Sonic & Sega game, there are always notable absences. So here’s the roster. First character in a team list is speed, then technique, then power like how TSR did it.

Team Sonic Heroes

1. Sonic
2. Tails
3. Knuckles

Team Criminal

1. Beat
2. Joker
3. Bonanza Bros.

Team Samba Party

1. Aiai
2. Amigo
3. Jack Frost

Team Sega Taxi Service

1. BD Joe
2. Ichiban Kasuga
3. Kazuma Kiryu

Team Brawler

1. Ryo Hazuki
2. Akira Yuki
3. Axel Stone

Team Girl Power

1. Amy Rose
2. Arle Nadja
3. Alis Landale

Team Empire

1. Satan
2. Dr. Eggman
3. Neff

- It’s tough finding room for a team all made up of characters from one franchise but the Team Sonic dynamic is too iconic to not include. I don’t think Sonic having the most characters here surprised anyone tho lol.

- Team Samba Party is kinda just my excuse to add funny mascot characters lol, the story context is literally just that they’re friends who party together. Originally I planned it for DLC where I would have Amigo, Rise, and Hatsune Miku but this was a better way to represent more franchises.

- The taxi service idea is so stupid but hey those Yakuza protagonists did indeed provide taxi services before… or at least a Crazy Taxi parody.

- MASSIVE honourable mention to Princess Kurumi for the girl power team, I just couldn’t figure out a way to get Arle in.

Spoiler: DLC:

Team Angry Birds

1. Chuck
2. Red
3. Bomb

Team Classic Sega:

1. Opa-Opa
2. Joe Musashi
3. Alex Kidd

Team Rivals:

1. Shadow
2. Goro Majima
3. Jacky

- I figure Angry Birds can get a track or something for the base game because I honestly tried to fit them in but they work too perfectly as a trio to not make them their own team in DLC

- The “Classic Sega” team set up is a little clunky because I do want team ups to make at least some sense here story-wise but it’s DLC so I figure it could be loosened somewhat.

- I want Team Rivals to be focused on getting revenge and then Goro Majima is just there because he wants to race against Kiryu and wouldn’t get to otherwise. Trust me Yakuza fans would go crazy for that. Speaking of which, I also considered giving Yakuza its own team made up of Goro Majima, Taiga Saejima, and Daigo Dojima since it’s a very established team in the franchise and plays very well with the “speed/technique/power” set up but there wasn’t really enough room. If I had given the DLC one more team I would have probably done it tho.

- I also considered a sort of “PC Team” with characters from Total War, Company of Heroes and Football Manager but it also fell through.

 

[ssbashworld]

Liked MartianSnakes idea so did it with my own twist, Mario vs Kirby Smash Bros (with Nintendo Guests instead of 3rd party).

Thought itd be more unique from MartianSnakes roster & be a bit easier since i imagine doubling either series roster would be tough.

And mario spinoffs didn't use Diddy Kong yet.

Might do mario melee later.

Alright, it's time for Super Mario Melee! Wahoo!

The biggest boon granted for this game is the release of Mario Tennis, which gives us a fair few now iconic characters to pull from.

The new characters:
(Characters in bold dictate they're unlockable)
Daisy
Waluigi
Dr. Mario
Diddy Kong/Dixie Kong
King K. Rool
Birdo
Vampire Wario
King Bob-Omb
Goomba
Alex & Nina
Hammer Bro
Fire Bro
Game & Watch Mario

And now, explanations!

Not a lot happened Mario-Wise between 64 and Melee. The biggest titles probably being Mario Tennis, Paper Mario, and Luigi's Mansion. I didn't feel too comfortable pulling from the later two games yet. Luigi's Mansion is way too new and Paper Mario hasn't formed into a major subseries quite yet.

It might be slightly too soon to pull from DKC quite yet, but I really felt that the roster needed that oomph. I've never been a fan of combining Diddy and Dixie either, but I felt the need to provide a swap for the zelda/sheik gimmick.

Alex & Nina are an Ice Climber parallel, but I imagine the gameplay revolving more around separating them to start rallies.

Game and Watch Mario is Mr. Game & Watch but just for the Mario ones. He also brings our Mario count up to 4 which is funny.

Vampire Wario is in because I needed more clones and if you know Dr. Mario 64 then you can guess why he's here specifically.

Fire Bro is the Roy to Hammer Bro's Marth.

I imagine the Brawl roster will be slightly easier to make than this.

My thread on this game idea:

Working on ideas for a Sonic fighting game. “Sonic Clash”

So I’ve had this idea in mind for a while for a 2D arcade-style Sonic the Hedgehog fighting game called “Sonic Clash” and I wanted to share and discuss what I had. I’ve been brainstorming ideas for potential character arcs as well... Feel free to ask any questions and share your thoughts.

[Megadoomer]

I'm going to try making the roster for a Disney-themed Smash-style game, with any property that they own being eligible. I'll try to limit myself to 24-26 characters and see what I can come up with. (I'll put my reasons why in spoiler tags)

1. Mickey Mouse
2. Donald Duck
3. Goofy

Spoiler

I feel like these three are automatic inclusions. I don't think I need to elaborate much more here.

4. Elsa
5. Maleficent
6. Stitch
7. Hades
8. Jack Skellington
9. Captain Jack Sparrow

Spoiler

For the first four, I went through the Disney animated canon, and for one reason or another, these characters stuck out to me - their roles in Kingdom Hearts might also play a part. The two Jacks also got in for Kingdom Hearts-related reasons - plus, I figure they'd be entertaining from a gameplay perspective.

10. Buzz Lightyear
11. Baymax
12. Wreck-It Ralph

Spoiler

Thinking about 3D animated movies, these three all felt like natural fits. Admittedly, I'm way behind on Disney movies. I probably could have included more Pixar characters in here, but I felt like Sully from Monsters Inc. would overlap with Wreck-It Ralph, and for a Disney-themed crossover video game, Ralph felt like a must-have. Vanellope could ride on his shoulder, with her glitching serving as a recovery move.

13. Spider-Man
14. Iron Man
15. Black Panther
16. Doctor Doom
17. Storm
18. Ms. Marvel

Spoiler

I had more ideas for Marvel characters, but I felt like I had to trim it down to keep within my self-imposed limit. Spider-Man and Iron Man were obvious picks, Black Panther feels like a character who could use more attention since T'Challa's not going to make any more MCU appearances, and now that Marvel doesn't have a self-imposed ban on including X-Men and Fantastic Four characters, some of them have to be here; I went with Storm for the X-Men because she had some of the best moments in X-Men '97. (DOOM, of course, is a no-brainer as far as Marvel villains go) As for Ms. Marvel, she just seems like a fun character, and I wanted to include someone newer rather than sticking to characters who were made in the 60s and 70s.

19. Darth Vader
20. Yoda
21. Rey

Spoiler

If we're including Star Wars characters, Vader and Yoda seem like easy picks. I was torn between Rey and the Mandalorian, though Mando could be DLC; I wanted to include some newer Star Wars content.

22. Indiana Jones
23. Predator
24. Homer Simpson
25. Bill Cipher
26. Scrooge McDuck

Spoiler

I considered a Xenomorph from the movie Alien, but I was worried that it wouldn't fit the tone. The Predator seems like a safer way to cover 20th Century Fox's sci-fi movies. Bill Cipher and Scrooge were last-minute additions; I was tempted to make Scrooge DLC, since that seemed like it would have been fitting, but I thought that I hadn't really covered Disney's TV shows.

I feel like there were some major properties that I likely left out, though 26 characters isn't a lot of space to cover a century of content. (I'm a little disappointed in myself that I couldn't fit the Muppets in, though they'd definitely get The Muppet Show as a stage, complete with Statler and Waldorf heckling the fighters)

 

[Wario Wario Wario]

The Side-Over-Protag Pass
The main rule here is that no characters can be "justifiable" so to speak within traditional Smash roster selection. No solo appearances (sorry Bad Piggies), no mascots (sorry Jack Frost), no splitting hairs over already repped series' heirarchy (sorry Fang the Sniper), no characters that embody an extremely major element of their source game (for example, a boss from boss rush game - sorry King Dice), and no equal rivals/sidekicks (sorry Vergil) - player-choice-protagonists (like a certain canine who did make the roster) are fine though, so long as they're not the mascot or most popular.

1. Mettaton EX (Undertale)
2. Jon Talbain (Darkstalkers)
3. Spider Mastermind (Doom)
4. Ripper Roo (Crash Bandicoot)
5. Mona (Shovel Knight)

3. Spider Mastermind (Doom)
4. Ripper Roo (Crash Bandicoot)
5. Mona (Shovel Knight)

In spite of all these rules, I actually think Mettaton EX, Jon Talbain, and Ripper Roo would be good picks on principle. The fact that there's choices for Doom and Shovel Knight other than their protagonists (Treasure Trove spinoffs included) does free up some creativity.

1. Princess Peach (Super Mario Bros.)
2. Daisy
3. Pauline

Why no Krystal from Star Fox Adventures or Rosalina from Super Mario Galaxy?

I don't care for those characters.

 

[fogbadge]

I think I’d like to make an x-men themed roster but I’m worried that once I start I won’t stop



Or more likely forget all the characters when I start and not think to have the Wikipedia page open

 

[Master Hero Sock-on-Rye]

In honor of MultiVersus relaunching in a week, and with a neat trailer on top of that, I thought I'd make my own take on a Disney knockoff. With some stipulations:

1. There will be some cases of the protagonist being shoved off, like how Scooby-Doo and Shazam currently are.
2. Each class will have equal representation, with a launch total of 20 characters.
3. Some of the characters will be from Marvel, Lucasfilm, and Fox. That's just how business works at the House of Mouse Fox.
4. Unlike WB's version, one of the 2-v-2 finishers would be a team attack like CN Punch Time Explosion.

With that said, let's go over my roster:

Bruisers:

1. Mickey Mouse - You can't not have Mickey in this game. And yet, he'll be the definitive starter character for this class. As bruisers prefer melee combat and proficient combos, I could see more physical attacks from the Mouse, such as rubber-hose punches and the occasional leg bite. In other words, the Paul Rudish version of Mick would be how I'd represent him in the game.
2. Mulan - We all know there'll be a Disney Princess or two in this game. Here, she'll rely a lot on her Imperial Army training to get her through, such as punches, kicks, and even sword slashes.
3. Sheriff Woody - Like adding Mickey and a Disney Princess, a Toy Story character was bound to happen at some point. His classification would be shown through rope tricks with Bullseye tagging in at times. And yes, Jessie will be a Variant skin for the game.
4. Captain America - Old Steve Rogers would be the most applicable Bruiser on the roster, even more than Mickey Mouse himself. Remember, he's a WW2 veteran with a stunning shield. Plus, he and Mulan would get together surprisingly well.

Assassins:

1. Donald Duck - Yes, I'm giving special privilege to the Mickey Mouse universe. Because of course I can. Going specifically to Donald, I see the 50s theatrical shorts as a basis for the character. The ones where he isn't afraid to fight back, but can still be squashed repeatedly.
2. Elsa - Those ice powers sure come in handy, don't they? Marshmallow has to be her offensive team attack.
3. Elastigirl - From ice powers to stretchy powers, but the same rule still applies nonetheless.
4. Wolverine - If there's any sort of promotional pick, it would be Wolverine to promote his MCU debut and the success of X-Men '97.

Mage/Ranged:

1. Goofy - If you know Goofy, you know how often a household item becomes a projectile. In fact, let's have the occasional cameo from the appliances in The Brave Little Toaster one out of every 25 attacks.
2. Darkwing Duck - A representative of Disney's television animation studio. I wanted to put Scrooge McDuck in here, but I thought we'd have enough Mickey Mouse characters at launch.
3. Merida - Pulling a third princess out of the hat trick, Merida would absolutely abuse her archery skills in combat. No doubt about it.
4. Iron Man - Our final Marvel character at launch, and you can do worse than have Tony Stark be a projectile-heavy combatant. It helps that RDJ wants to return to the role at some point, which this would allow him to do.

Support:

1. Duffy the Disney Bear - You may not recognize this teddy bear, but he's a Disney Parks-exclusive character. A niche that I almost excluded, surprisingly enough.
2. Piglet - You read that right. I'm not only passing on Winnie the Pooh, but I'm also passing up Tigger as well. I particularly see Piglet try to sweep away projectiles with a broom, or use his scarf as a recovery move.
3. Sadness - I should incorporate a relevant recent Pixar character, and Sadness currently fits that to a T.
4. Wicket - As much as I expect to get nasty replies, Wicket will be our only Star Wars character at launch. And yes, I'm choosing an Ewok to represent Star Wars and Lucasfilm.

Tank:

1. Pete - The major villain of the Mickey Mouse franchise, and the other Disney villain on here will also be a tank.
2. Scar - Case in point, we have a quadruped on our fighting game roster.
3. Sweetums - Yes, I'm adding a Muppet that's not Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, or Gonzo. Yes, I'm picking Sweetums of all the characters to utilize the Muppet name.
4. Diego - The sabertooth tiger from Ice Age? Yes. Before you ask, he and Scar would be one of the most likely 2-v-2 mashups in the game.

Wicket is an inspired choice, legitimately can immediately see so many moves for him. I think having him as the SOLE star wars rep is gonna boost hate from the fanbase a lot though. Even with the live service model of MultiVersus. I'd probably try to squeeze in atleast one other starwars rep.

My first choice was Grogu as the single Star Wars fighter, but everyone else puts him in some position for a Disney fighting game. So I thought I'd try a different alien race to go with.

3V3. Loose adaptation of Secret Wars. Story mode where players must face a powered up version of Dr. Doom or M. Bison before fighting the Beyonder. Every stage features an "invasion" from another franchise. A big thing would be 'merged' costumes. A Mega Man themed Iron Man armor, symbiote Ryu, S.T.A.R.S. Captain America, Captain Marvel Chun-Li, Ghost Rider Dante, etc.

Alright, here's a fun idea, what if Universal Studios were to make a live service platform fighter like Multiversus? I present to you...

Universus!

Now before we begin, a quick mention that I'm allowing characters currently licensed to universal and it's subsidiaries/partners for film/tv use. I'll be sure to mention it when characters are from a licensed out property.

Characters licensed out to Universal purely for theme park use aren't being considered, most of these would probably be in other platform fighters anyways.

Mario characters and Hulk characters are also not being included despite Universal having the film rights to those. Mario characters being playable would require the game be Nintendo exclusive which doesn't seem realistic, and disney is disney, nuff said.

I'd also like to mention I'm using the classes from Multiversus but I'm renaming Bruisers to "All-Rounders". It makes more sense to me.

With that out of the way, let's jump in!

Spoiler: Launch Roster!

This game would launch with 20 characters! Now let's start off with Universal's closest thing to a superhero lineup.

1. Dracula (Mage)
2. Frankenstein's Monster (Tank)
3. The Wolfman (Assassin)

Can't have a universal crossover without some Universal Classic Monsters! Dracula and Frankenstein were immediate locks, but the third pick was tricky, I went with Wolfman because he'd be a somewhat easy to play character in comparison to other choices, and you need characters like that for launch.

4. Shrek (All-Rounder)
5. (P)uss in Boots (Assassin)

Shrek! Probably DreamWorks most popular franchise. These characters are also clear locks. I feel like Shrek has got a lot of variety in his arsenal, so he just makes sense to be a (heavyweight) all-round character. Meanwhile (P)uss' class seems obvious to me.

6. Gru (Mage)
7. Minion (Mage)

Despicable Me! a... somewhat controversial franchise, but you gotta admit it'd be a lock. Gru would ultilize various gizmos and gadgets from his films, such as the freeze ray, shrink ray, and cookie robots. Minion is also a Mage, throwing around bananas and stuff.

8. Po (Tank)
9. Oogway (Support)

Kung Fu Panda! Don't have much else to say. I thought Oogway would be a fun surprise pick.

10. Poppy (Support)

The last DreamWorks rep of the launch roster, hailing from Trolls! I'd imagine she'd have a lot of stat-boosting singing moves.

11. Owen Grady (All-Rounder)
12. Blue (Assassin)

Jurrasic World/Jurrasic Park representation is definitely a lock, and I really like the idea of playing as a velociraptor. Blue was selected specifically because she's a prominent named one, but she'd have moves and skins pulled from other raptors in the series.

13. Marty McFly (All-Rounder)
14. E.T. (Support)
15. Dom Toretto (Tank)
16. Jaws (Assassin)
17. Scorpion King (Tank)
18. Burt Gummer (Mage)

A batch of solo film reps ranging from required, to iconic but weird to make work, to unexpected yet not too obscure picks! Burt Gummer is the survivalist guy from Tremors, btw. Jaws would essentially "surf" on a wave to move around.

19. Xena (Assassin)

The Launch Roster's sole TV rep, Xena: Warrior Princess adds some nice fantasy and swordfighting to the roster.

20. Woody Woodpecker (All-Rounder)

A character that's somewhat obscure in the modern day compared to your mouses and rabbits, but still feels oddly obligatory. He'd need to be fast and annoying to say the least.

So there you have it! A nice roster, but one can't help but feel that it's missing a few things.

Luckily, I'm not ending there! I've got a few season ideas lined up! Each will be given a vague theme, and each will contain five characters!

...I'm aware this is both unrealistic if not prepared properly and will double the roster, but I've got ideas here I wanna share folks. I have given up giving classes to these characters though, it got tricky. You're more than welcome to do that yourself.

Spoiler: Seasons 1-4

Season 1! "Bigger and Badder"
This season would be themed to large characters, and villainous characters!

21. Megamind - Fan-Favorite DreamWorks character with a recent (albeit controversial) revival! Megamind in Universus would largely ignore the recent sequel and series, though.
22. King Kong - Iconic character with heavy ties to universal. Would be mostly based on the original version and the Peter Jackson version. The Monsterverse Kong is under control of a different studio, and thus cannot be referenced.
23. Snidely Whiplash - Hailing from Dudley Do-Right, Snidely marks the first character from DreamWorks Classics. A subsidiary of DreamWorks that holds the rights to a TON of classic properties, mostly cartoons. Expect to see a lot of them in the future. Definitely has a move where he ties the opponent to train tracks.
24. Voltron - Our first licensed character! They'd probably go for the Netflix version, but I'd prefer the classic incarnation personally.
25. The Bride - Finishing the season off with another classic monster! She'd probably make use of Electricity more than her groom.

Season 2! "Back in Time"
A time themed season! Definitely the most loose theme of the bunch.

26. Doc Brown - Can't have a time themed season without a time traveller! He'd be a lot more technical than Marty.
27. Lone Ranger - Classic cowboy character universal owns through DreamWorks Classics! I think he'd be a surprising pick.
28. Alan Grant - It makes sense to include a Jurrasic Park character in the time season, he'd fight with paleontologist... stuff.
29. He-Man - Here's a fun licensed pick, Mattel owns he-man, but they let DreamWorks Classics handle brand management over the MotU characters from my understanding. He's here under the excuse of being a character heavily associated with the 80s and 80s nostalgia.
30. Skeletor - And you can't have He-Man without Skeletor! Nuff said.

Season 3! "Horror Nights"
Inspired by the Universal Studios Halloween event. This season would be themed to all things spooky.

31. Chucky - I really don't see a better start for this season than chucky, he's a (relatively) modern horror icon with loads of personality, recent projects, and he's got plenty of moveset potential.
32. Casper - A bit of a tonal shift from the rest of the characters in the season, but he'd be a fun support character!
33. Jack the Clown - Here's a pick that I think would catch a lot of attention, for those out of the know, Jack is one of Universal's Halloween Horror Night mascots, and one of the most popular at that! I think a lot of the theme park fans would really appreciate him.
34. Van Helsing - Based specifically on the failed 2004 incarnation, he's got a certain charm to him even if the movie isn't that great. Also it's apparently getting a remake? So I think Universal would wanna promote the character for that.
35. Freddy Fazbear - The next licensed character on the list. The film is owned by Universal and there's plans for more so I think he'd make a lot of sense. Definitely a pull that would catch a LOT of eyes towards him.

Season 4 "Universus Gets Wild!"
The final season I'll create for now, this one themed to animal characters.

36. Tigress - My choice for a third kung-fu panda rep, makes sense to add her here.
37. Tracy the Gorilla - An obscure character hailing from Ghostbusters! ...Filmation's Ghostbusters, that is! No relation to the ones owned by sony, Tracy predates those guys! Tracy would use a mix of slapstick antics and ghost hunting equipment to fight.
38. Rudolph - Fun Fact, DreamWorks Classics owns many of the old Rankin Bass Christmas Specials! Making Rudolph viable for the roster! There's a chance the song owners might have some rights but I think he'd be easy to license from them.
39. Skipper - Hailing from Madagascar. Skipper would fight with the other penguins showing up in his moves from time to time. I think he'd be an appreciated character!
40. Lassie - Yes, that Lassie. The one that saves Timmy from a well! Lassie would probably be another support character. I just think it's funny to add a normal dog to the roster.

So uh, that's it! Hope you like! Might do more seasons if I feel like it but this took wayyy too long to finish. Lemme know what you think.
