When I first played smash64 I didn't know who C. Falcon, Ness, or even Samus were. Since then I've played 4 F-Zero games, beaten Earthbound, Mother 3, Metroid, Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion, and Other M. A similiar pattern occured when I first played melee, and then Brawl. One of the most underappreciated things about smash is how it really broadens your knowledge.
I can understand and get behind this with lesser known Nintendo characters, and even as much as I like lesser known third parties and find that some of them would probably be awesome in a fighting game arena. It goes against Sakurai's desire for the most popular special cases to throw in the fighting bear from Tekken.
