I have to agree that the TTT2 Wii U trailer may influence a Tekken character (most likely Heihachi) to join Smash.
I mean, sure, other characters like Pac-Man "make more sense", but actually stop to think about this;
According to Harada, Tekken has the most support for a character. Not Tales, not Pac-Man, Tekken. His biggest thing was that he wasn't sure if fans would really want that.
The main concern from speculators is that they "wouldn't fit" Smash, despite Tekken being the series with a farting bear, boxing dinosaur, and an old man that ties people to shuttles and gives out electric noogies among other oddities. And as much as I hate to make comparisons between Smash and Playstation All-Stars, it has a similar style to Smash, and Heihachi works fine.
The Nintendo costumes and "Mushroom Combat" in TTT2 Wii U are icing on the cake.
If anything, it's almost like the costumes and mushrooms were made as a test to determine if Tekken should have representation in Smash or not.
"B-But Pac-Man!" But nothing. Again, Pac-Man isn't as requested as you might say, considering Harada flat out said Tekken recieved the most buzz. Also, just because Pac-Man "makes more sense" doesn't mean he is automatically getting in over other Namco reps. Take Snake for example. Simon Belmont or even someone like Goemon would make much more sense from a Nintendo standpoint, yet we got Snake, who's somewhat of a Playstation icon.
Some food for thought. You don't have to agree with me, just know that it is unwise to cloud judgement based on what you feel "makes more sense".
