Your probably thinking this is a dream list, but it's not!

Waluigi Might Make it. He would use his tennis racket to attack! (Wow)


Geno would be a favorite! I'm not a super mario RPG fan but I'd like him. He be a well rounded character, unlike Waluigi


Bowser Jr. is ovbiously in the game!He'd transform into shadow Mario and use the paint brush! He'd NOT be a clone of Bowser



Count Bleck is another light, strong, defenseless character. I'm thinking count bleck would be intresting.


Toad Won't make it. He's pretty fast and defensefull, but ends up a Peach's B attack. Peach could do a shell (Protective like toad) and Toad would be decent for ones that like light weight.


Shadow Mario and B Jr. Better make it! Look at this!


If you ask me, Koopa will never make it into brawl. He's A ENEMY! And he's a weaker form of Bowser


Mallow isn't the greatest choice but they shouldn't have Geno and Mallow. Mallow might be medium weight but normal attack. He would have good jump and defense.But not the best choice.


The koopalings might make it as Assist Trophies but never a character. All 8 of them, beatin the crap out of you.Hmm..


I think Dr.Mario will not return:( but if he does, i'll be happy!:laugh: and confused:dizzy: so mario luigi peach bowser and them may have some diffrent moves! Thanks for reading! Plaese comment!

Geno is the only character on that list I care if he gets in...

None of the others are really that important...though some may argue on Bowser Jr's case...

Setting you up the bomb.
Geno and maybe Toad (although it's already too late in his case...). But I really think we have enough Mario Universe representation already and all the characters that really need to be there are already in (including Luigi - even if he's not yet announced we ALL know he's in...).

Im just worried about Dr. Mario.
I mush rather plat Dr. over Mario cause the pills and himself are more heavy. I like the movement for him better. But I had an idea, that would be cool costume wise but not character wise.
Maybe instead of Changing just ur color, u actually change costume. Like Mario can me normal, Dr, Raccoon, Wing Cap, Fire Flower red and white, not gaining the powers of each different costume but just a different look. Same for Samus, could have Vira Suit, Fusion Suite, Phazon Upgrade Suit from Metroid Prime 3. Stuff like that, would be awesome. Some characters can change costume while others like Yoshi are fine with just color change. But I just want Dr. Mario back.

Mario is definitely going to get one or two more characters other than the standard four (Mario, Luigi. Peach, Bowser). Whining about this should cease.

The three characters with the biggest chances of filling this/these spot/s in my opinion are Paper Mario, Bowser Jr. and Geno. Geno has the additional difficulty of being third-party and relatively unknown, while Paper Mario is challenged simply because he´s another Mario.

Then, finally, there´s Dr. Mario. I highly doubt that he will return, but at the same time nobody expected the Ice Climbers to make a comeback.

If Sakurai ASKS Square for a character, he would most likely ask for Geno...with all the evidence and his fan base, along with being #2 on the polls under Dedede AND Sakurai actually mentioning stuff about Geno.


Square isn't making the game, Sakurai is...the FF can stick themselves in Dissidia

The only Mario character I really want in brawl is Bowser Jr! I've been a fan of him ever since super mario sunshine! It'd be awesome if he could transform into Shadow Mario. I just hope that one is DRASTICALLY better than the other like sheik and zelda...

Mario, Bowser, Peach and Luigi are enough.

However, there would be one way I would accept Waluigi being in the game.......as an alternate costume for Capt. Falcon!!

Only Geno. Nobody wants Bowser Jr, because he sucks and is a boring and unappealing character. Name one person who says Bowser Jr is their favorite Mario character. Some people probably requested him for the poll, but Sakurai only posted the characters which he either felt were good suggestions or funny. So he won't be in the game. I would bet money on it.

Bowser Jr. is my favorite mario character.

Lol why should geno get in? He was in one mario game! Wow what a great representation of the mario franchise!

Also just so you know nobody means: no person; not anyone; no one

HE'S A WITCH!
As for who SHOULD be in, I think that's definitely Toad, though that isn't likely to happen after Peach's update, so I'll say Geno. I don't think Bowser Jr will be in, and I don't see why Paper Mario should be in more than Doctor Mario.

Yeah he is... If anyone saw him they would think of Bowser and then mario and then the entire mario series...

Are you saying Geno is iconic? Cause he's not... Most younger people haven't even heard of Super Mario RPG... If you present most people with a picture of Geno they will not know what he is or even if he's a video game character

Because Paper Mario, like cel-shaded Link is pretty much a new way for Mario. I'd love for Paper Mario to make an appearance. I could see him and Bowser Jr as new characters. I would've said Toad, but it looks like he went down the crapper. So yeah...Paper Mario, Bowser Jr....

....or a Baby Mario and Luigi team. *runs off before he is killed*

So younger gamers haven't heard of him? I don't see what the big deal with that is. It's their fault for not knowing Nintendo's history. How many of them do you think wanted Pit in or even heard of Pit before Brawl. To an entire generation of gamers Super Mario RPG was the best game ever. It's a cult classic with a cult character...and everyone knows cult classics are the best. I.E. Earthbound/ for movies...Boondock Saints, and Pulp Fiction


and NO, Bowser Jr is not Iconic...he has to hold against TIME to become iconic.

I'd have to agree with Yukiwarashi, Paper Mario would make an excellent character. Honestly, he's the only Mario character I'm hoping is in the game as well.

However, I understand that Bowser Jr. will probably be the next Mario rep... Just as long as it's not Waluigi or Daisy, or some other "party" character, I'm fine with it.

Its not their fault that they don't know much about nintendo's history. And super mario rpg is an old mario game, kid icarus is a stand alone game so that makes it much more different than comparing it to a game that is one in a million. Cult classics don't sell well when presented to the general audience, like for example Donnie Darko and Invader ZIM! didn't do well in the theater or on television. Yet they are cult classics. And cult classics aren't the best, they're the best to the cult.

Bowser jr. is iconic.
Iconic: of, pertaining to, or characteristic of an icon.

Let's see... Mario is an icon, bowser jr. pertains to or has characteristics of it so he is iconic.

Geno isn't iconic because he doesn't even have the same style of design as other mario characters and doesn't flood your mind with images of classic mario games.

Donnie Darko = One of the best movies ever, Invader Zim = Best Nick Cartoon ever...

Bowser Jr himself is not an icon...the only icons of that series are the ones that are already IN Brawl

BTW Kid Icarus was had 2 games in his series

No, Geno is not a Mario series Icon, I never said he was. But he is very popular and would make a good character, he was practically the main character of one of the best games on the SNES...Super Mario RPG was not "1 in a Million" because it was the only Mario game to be made by Square and the first and best Mario RPG

I never said they weren't but they did horribly in ratings and grossing.

Toad is an icon and isn't in brawl unless you count Peach's b move.

BTW Kid Icarus was had 2 games in his series
Oh yeah, I thought i changed that... >_>; Cause i remember someone got corrected the same way i did just now

Mario Hoops 3 on 3 was made by square... It was the first but not the best, that's just an opinion. I don't have anything against Geno personally and he's not a character that i hate immensely (coughlucariocough), I wouldn't be mad if he got in and i'm sure he could have a unique moveset but i just don't think he is a good choice for brawl because he's only been in one game for a series that has a multitude of games

Maybe Dr Mario might be reduced to an alternate costume for Mario. As for new Mario character I think Bowser Jr might work, however I DON'T want Daisy simply because I hate hearing the non stop "Hi I'm Daisy" in Double Dash and you know she'll say that in the game.

Honestly, I think the only one I would want to see at this point is Geno, since he's so retro and different and has a cult following. The Mario franchise already has five characters (I tend to count Yoshi, even though he also has his own spin-off series), so we really don't need to reach for stuff like Toad or Waluigi to flesh out the roster or anything. It's not necessary for the Mario franchise to hog too many character slots; it just needs to be equal to or greater than the next closest (and the only real competitors on that front are Legend of Zelda and maybe Pokemon if you want to count the Trainer a whole bunch of times).

Right behind you with a knife.
I think it's a given that Nintendo's number 1 franchise will not go down in the character count. While its suspect to say that it will go up, I think it's plain and simple that it will get someone to replace Dr. Mario. Now in my opinion, there are really only two characters that can get that spot, Bowser Jr. and Paper Mario. Toad's basically deconfirmed, Waluigi is just a filler character that's only in sports games, and Geno really doesn't deserve it even if you could find a cure to the legal issues that would come up with his inclusion.

Now there's a chance that both could get in at the same time, but I am leaning towards the notion that only one will show up. If this is the case, I'd give the nod to Bowser Jr, though with great difficulty, since I'd like them both. The problem with both of them is that they both are "spin offs" from pre existing characters, although BJ is his own, unlike PM. Still, I'd like them both, and quite frankly, if you see WW Link confirmed in this game, I'd have to say that PM will be in too. (Or vice versa)

IMO, Bowser Jr. doesn't really have much of a personality.
Samus doesn't have much of a personality either. Same with Link. Or the PT. Or Pikachu. Or any of the Pokemon really. Or any of those other characters that don't speak because they represent the player. >_>

Although BJ is not one of these types, it's still evident that lack of personality doesn't hurt your chances.
