What happened to this place? When I was active on smashboards this was like "the" character to support, and this thread was "the" place to me. Muddy Mole still has a pretty great chance, guys! @

you need to revive this place properly!
Basically, Muddy Mole is one of the few "classic" Nintendo characters still not on Super Smash Bros. or not so heavily supported. If you want a game boy retro character, Muddy Mole is your best bet. Why? He's one of the best known out there. The other option would be Alice, theoretically, but balloon fighter is much more iconic than her, and the others are parts of other series. Muddy Mole representing his own series, being popular and being retro ticks 3 boxes for chances to be included, and he could easily have a unique playstyle, which Sakurai seems big in. HE CAN LITERALLY DIG UNDERGROUND! That is beyond unique for a fighting game.
