Toad, Dixie Kong, and Bandana Dee are, I feel, the most needed characters. I'd like Zelda to have three new characters (if I had to pick, it'd be Impa, Skull Kid, and Midna), but I'll honestly take anyone at this point. Takamaru, Porky, and Isaac would be cool as well.

I don't have any third-party wants (I do have some characters that would be cool to see though) as Nintendo characters come first to me in Smash. I'll always take a Nintendo character over a third-party character, but that's not to say I don't enjoy the ones we have.

*Sigh*. I know it’ll probably never happen, and I know I’ll catch a lot of hate, but Goku.
I would like Goku and other anime characters like Luffy, Sasuke, and Cell. But it would open up pandora's box and all people would be wanting would be anime, comic book, movie, and cartoon characters. I wouldn't be liking that at all one bit if the demand and conversation was just centered around non video game characters.

I just think that characters like Goku could be exceptions due to his gaming history. While he is first and foremost an anime character, he has more video game history than half of smash. I know it’s stupid, but that’s how I see it.

I want Bandana Dee, though I know he won’t happen given Sakurai’s position on modern Kirby.

Steve from Minecraft is probably my most wanted now and knowing he has like the strongest chance of any 3rd party makes me happy.

Heres my 10 most wanted characters

10: an new F-zero character, because we really need a new one, since :ultfalcon: is the only playable character representing this franchise since the first game. For the character, Black Shadow is the most likely one, but my main choice would be Bio-Rex.
9. Bandanna Dee, there is already waddle dee models in the game, so implanting a move set for that waddle dee to become Bandanna Dee would save time in developing this game
8. Midna, while she is an assist trophy now, she could have a chance in the future, with a unique move set. She would represent twilight princess, since Link, Zelda and Ganondorf changed designs
7. Dixie Kong, she can either be an Echo-Fighter of :ultdiddy: or a Pseudo Echo like Isabelle. She also helps team Donkey Kong Country with more representatives.
6 and 5. Shantae and Ray-Man, could not choose between them. They would be unique in the game, with some new deadly moves. Plus Risky and the Raving Rabbid would be assist trophies if they get in
4. Either Shadow or Knuckles, Sonic needs another character, and while Knuckles would be my next choice, Shadow would be easier, as he could be an Echo-Fighter or a Pseudo Echo
3. Steve, of all the gaming franchises, my most wanted franchise to be in Super Smash Bros is Minecraft, and Steve has a lot of interesting moves for this game. Steve will have a hunger bar underneath his health, making him different from everyone else. If Steve gets in, the Creeper could appear as an Assist Trophy, but I also wanted the Ender Dragon as a boss.
2. Fawful, I'm also a big fan of Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (the first Nintendo game I got) and Fawful should appear in Super Smash Bros. He will not only represent the Mario and Luigi RPG series, but he is also a villain, and a comical villain at that. Midbus would appear as an assist trophy, plus Bowser would be given his voice from Bowser's Inside Story (Showtime!) and Bowser's Castle would be a stage.
1. :249:, of all the Pokémon, Lugia is my most wanted Pokémon, but also my most wanted fighter. Lugia would create wind based attacks, giving it uniqueness for the Pokémon. If Lugia makes it in some point in the future, I'd also like to see :248: as a Pokeball Pokémon, plus the return of Poke Floats and a new stage, being the Alolan Region, but also Giratina as a boss.

Just to clarify, :249: is my third favourite Pokémon, behind :ultlucario: (My favourite Pokémon) and :ultpikachu: (second favourite)

Honorable Mentions: Dark Bowser, Skull Kid, Adeline (strange that she has no spirit in this game), Krystal, Viridi, Chun Li, Bomberman and Shovel Knight

Of all these characters, Adeline and Steve are the most likely ones

This. Almost entirely in this order too.

I'm not really hyped about the Fighters Pass as it's likely all going to be third parties and honestly I just haven't cared about what we've gotten from third parties since Ryu.

I’d love to see a 3rd party from a great franchise that was really Nintendo-inspired. The N64/PS1 age was full of great platformers that we’re clearly inspired by the video game foundations set forth by Nintendo in the 90’s. It only makes sense to honor these characters in Smash. Plus, they’d probably be the most hype character announcement since Sonic in Brawl.

A few that come to mind are:
- Crash Bandicoot
- Conker
- Banjo & Kazoo
Conker was the first one that came to mind for sure. I'm glad I wasn't the only one trying to think of iconic characters from the 90's. Granted I'm biased growing up with those games.

Maybe an unpopular opinion but someone like Barry Sanders from Tecmo Bowl would be interesting to see.

I would certainly like Decidueye, Tails, Crash, or Sora.............that said, I would GLADLY trade all of those for as many Fire Emblem characters as Sakurai wants to get Banjo and Kazooie in the roster.

  • Sub-zero ( Mortal Kombat Series )

I feel like I have everyone I wanted within the roster, but, if I had to choose someone I wanted to see be translated into Super Smash Bros, it had to be Sub-zero from the Mortal Kombat series. Idk I feel like we are going to get an MK character because it is a good franchise overall with enough popularity and did have a impact on gaming. ( but don't take my words as true ) I feel like out of Scorpion and Sub-zero really, Sub-zero is more friendly to recreate. Besides, I might be a bit bias towards him considering everyone likes a backup Sub-zero and Scorpion. Other than that, I would just add characters like

  • Banjo and Kazooie
  • Geno
  • Rex and Pyrrha
  • Crash Bandicoot
  • Shantae
  • Sora
Not because I want them but to give the fans what they want. I know they will make good choice regardless because I didn't expect Joker from Persona to be in a playable Super Smash Bros game. Just proves anything can happen really : )

If they added Dixie Kong alone, I would be fully satisfied with the roster (though always room for more, for as long as there are cool video game characters ;)).

Aside from her, my biggest wants would be Banjo & Kazooie, Balloon Fighter, Geno, Crash Bandicoot, Rayman and any second Sonic character.

My dream character, the one I want more than anyone else from any video game, is Viridi. I would absolutely love to see her get in as DLC. I'd also like to see Bandana Dee, Marx, Tails, Hector, Shantae or Shovel Knight. But honestly, I'm fine with the roster as long as Geno never lays foot on the battlefield, neither as an assist trophy nor as a character.

#10. A New Punch-Out Character- Either King Hippo Or Mr. Sandman (Both Are From Punch-Out On The Nintendo Wii)
Both were actually in the original NES Punchout btw

Feels unlikely since not many ppl are asking for it but a Monster Hunter could be so cool.

Having different movesets for the different weapons in the game would be the dream but the more likely setup would be each move using a different weapon.
Could possibly have a rosalina/luma type thing with the palico.
Could use the sharpening mechanic which would be gimmicky but still cool.
For colour variations there could also be different armor sets.

4 real I'm getting hyped just thinking about it. Monster Hunter pls nintendo.
