I'm actually really digging that icon that Kafei88Ale has. A Project M Robo-Mario would be pretty damn cool. That is just my opinion though.

Too spoiler-y. I say keep him as the Masked Man. It's how he's referred to in Mother 3 and it makes him sound cooler and more mysterious anyway.I am wondering, if the Masked Man/Claus get in, which name would they give him?
I would opt to go with Claus, because that is the name of the sticker in brawl.
Ridley might be able to do something similar but since he'd probably be a heavyweight character it might be a bit weird.i know several people have expressed interest in characters with a mechanic that allows a character to change their falling speed, floaty vs. fast falling (like Balloon Fighter for instance), why can't that mechanic be incorporated into Masked Man instead? I could see one of his taunts expanding his mechanical wings, which could give him afterburn to turn him into a floaty character. Or he could lose the wings, and be a fast faller, due to all his metal parts (why he isn't as light as Ness/Lucas).
I really shouldn't do this, but I want to interject here. By your logic, any character who time travels is a rip-off. Chrono is a rip-off of Trunks, Trunks is a rip-off of the Terminator, etc... That aside, it's not as if time travel is the only aspect of his character. His telekinetic powers certainly make him unique amongst the Sonic cast.Plus Votes
Silver the Hedgehog: I don't know if he's been mentioned yet, but if he has, SHAME ON YOU, he's not a very original character at all, he rips off Trunks from Dragonball Z, Goes into the Past to kill Cell/The thing that destroys the world (Chrono does this too in Chrono Trigger, but that game has a reason to exist and so does Trunks, Silver only exists to rip these two off), not to mention he along with Elise killed the Sonic franchise.
Silver is just the most unoriginal thing about the Sonic franchise to date, as is the entirety of Sonic 06, but Silver is the worst of the lack of creativity, this is just an opinion though...on Silver atleast, we all know Sonic 06 is terrible and lifeless. The Rings bother me, but personally I think a Hedgehog going Super Saiyan is so stupid and out of place that if I was in the Sonic Concept Room I couldn't resist adding it in either.I really shouldn't do this, but I want to interject here.

Originality is a very subjective thing, and if you're going to say such things, you might as well condemn Sonic for his super form looking an awful lot like a super-saiyan transformation, or collecting rings like Mario collects coins. I also find it funny that you consider Silver an unoriginal rip-off, but Shadow is cool with you.
Finally, how exactly did he "kill the Sonic franchise"? Last I checked, Sonic games have still been coming out for the last 8 years, some of them gathering a very positive reception. Such as Sonic Colors, which - *gasp* - features a cameo from Silver!
You're right, I'm not the world's biggest Zelda fan, but I am a pretty big Ganondorf fan. Ganondorf is fun as hell as he is now. He's more viable than ever and he honestly feels very different from Falcon.Ganondorf: He's much more usable in Project M, but he still feels like a ****tier Captain Falcon, he needs priority IMO, whoever thinks he doesn't need to be changed isn't really a true Zelda fan, you know you have a terrible character when the woman he kidnaps can beat him up. SHAME ON ANYONE who thinks he's fine.
How so? What is unoriginal, or uncreative about Silver?Silver is just the most unoriginal thing about the Sonic franchise to date, as is the entirety of Sonic 06, but Silver is the worst of the lack of creativity, this is just an opinion though...
Man, that's bizarre. I must have imagined all the fun I had playing through Sonic '06. I don't know what's taking up all that space on my hard drive and MP3 player if it's not Sonic '06's incredible soundtrack. Only God knows why I occasionally come back to Sonic '06's 2-player mode, seeing as it's so awful.we all know Sonic 06 is terrible and lifeless.
So, to summarize: Plagiaristic Thing A is alright, but Plagiaristic Thing B is a franchise killer.The Rings bother me, but personally I think a Hedgehog going Super Saiyan is so stupid and out of place that if I was in the Sonic Concept Room I couldn't resist adding it in either.
This doesn't go here. Go to the alternate costume discussion thread.I'm proposing a few additional ideas for costumes:
MGS1 Snake or Old Snake Costumes, either is fine
Toon Ganondorf Costume
Metal Sonic Costume
Iron Mask Dedede Costume (Kirby Superstar Ultra)
Paper Luigi (Clone of Paper Mario that can jump higher if Paper Mario is ever made)
Hyper Sonic Costume for Super Sonic
Skyward Sword Link
Skyward Sword Zelda

Pichu Costume for Pikachu (I'm fine with Pichu as a costume)
While these are probably going to be counted I'm going to just inform you that your post is reeking of bias.Anti Votes
Pichu: He's a ****ty version of Pikachu who takes damage whenever he does any electrical attack, he would just be a waste of Project M's Resources that could go towards making Ganondorf playable and legit.
Krystal: We don't need another Star Fox clone and odds are some sick freak would make a nude mod of her, if we didn't want a nude mod for Zero Suit Samus why would we want it for a Furry Girl who wears an already revealing outfit? Seriously, DON'T PUT HER IN!!!
Plusle and Minun: Do we really need a version of Pichu that doesn't take damage from Electric Attacks?
Tails: Tails is pretty lame, the fact he WAS in Brawl made me cringe a bit.
Knuckles: No thanks, he's not as bad as Tails, but he's become pretty useless in the Sonic games over the years.
Silver the Hedgehog: I don't know if he's been mentioned yet, but if he has, SHAME ON YOU, he's not a very original character at all, he rips off Trunks from Dragonball Z, Goes into the Past to kill Cell/The thing that destroys the world (Chrono does this too in Chrono Trigger, but that game has a reason to exist and so does Trunks, Silver only exists to rip these two off), not to mention he along with Elise killed the Sonic franchise.

I assume you said this because you knew I would reply.Goddamn it
Among other thingsI assume you said this because you knew I would reply.
I can't speak for everyone else but what i can say is that i don't actually mind the characters but I'd prefer they stay out of smash.I find all this recent hate for Tails and Knuckles a little strange, but it might be because the only Sonic games I've played are 2, S&K, 3D, R, and a tiny bit of Adventures. My favorite by far was S&K, so I might be a little biased though.
Even still, tails managed to be a hero in Sonic adventure, and played a significant role in Sonic adventure 2. I don't think those roles could hinder him.I find all this recent hate for Tails and Knuckles a little strange, but it might be because the only Sonic games I've played are 2, S&K, 3D, R, and a tiny bit of Adventures.

I feel the same way. If it were a Sega crossover, I'd be one of those people wanting several Sonic characters. But this isn't a Sega crossover. This is a primarily Nintendo crossover with a few special guests.I can't speak for everyone else but what i can say is that i don't actually mind the characters but I'd prefer they stay out of smash.
Agreed, I still,want my Sega crossover though. But this is a Nintendo Crossover, let the Nintendo All Stars shine first and including the niche ones.I feel the same way.

I'd prefer Emerl over all of them.I'd be perfectly fine with one of the 5 spots given to a Sonic character, personally I see Sonic as being one of the biggest franchises in Smash, up there with Mario and Link, with a rich history and vast cast of characters, not to mention plenty of fans behind it. As I've said before, I've thought the best compromise would be Metal Sonic, since with his Copycat powers he could, as a single character, have several references to other Mobius denizens to try to get the most bang for one's buck, lots of callbacks of specials moves and abilities, plus a villain, which I always like. However I already know a lot of people here don't back him up, thinking he has 0% chance of even being considered for P:M. Oh well.
Realistically, I think the best candidates would be Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow. Tails for being Sonic's sidekick, and one of the oldest characters of the franchise, pretty much only beaten out by Sonic and Eggman, Knuckles for being Sonic's "friendly rival" as it were, and one of the best heroic fighters, being stronger than Sonic but slower than him ... personally I would not really consider him a candidate, if not for many people pointing out P:M had screenshots showing him in the roster, so it seems some of the crew like him, and of course Shadow, Sonic's other and darker rival, antihero/enemy type with a lot of special abilities that could make for a different kind of a Sonic.
Any one of them would be great, in my opinion, and I would be happy to see any one of them being brought into the fold. Of course, I am a little biased since I could see each of them filling some nice niches in the Brawl roster, which as I've mentioned before, is what I really want out of a new character, something playable that fills a void we do not yet have or can't be done better by someone else.
That was like the majority of the reason I wanted Tails, the sheer possibilities of how his playstyle could work, the other being that he is the most recurring character in the series after Sonic.If I had to choose a Sonic buddy, I'd pick Tails. Not because he's cool (because he isn't), but because I think he would have really cool, unique properties relating to his flight and speed.
ewRidley doing a DJC.
Exactly.
I think Shadow has just as much protential in a unique moveset, what with access to his Chaos Control, plus being an antihero could give him appeal. But I'd be ok with either one.That was like the majority of the reason I wanted Tails, the sheer possibilities of how his playstyle could work, the other being that he is the most recurring character in the series after Sonic.
I doubt there will be another Sonic character introduced into Project M, but if there was Tails has the most potential out of any other character in the series in regards to uniqueness.
And he's adorable.
Dark samus has more potential to be different than shadow.I think Shadow has just as much potential in a unique moveset, what with access to his Chaos Control, plus being an antihero could give him appeal. But I'd be ok with either one.
Now something I've mentioned before but will expand on, and hopefully this won't cause a flame war, but I really don't see Dark Samus as a potential candidate, really. I just really don't see her/it being unique enough to qualify her for her own slot. I do, however, see Dark Samus being an alt costume for Samus. And I know DS fans hate that I say that, but really, since DS is a Phazon clone of Samus, I see her being in the same boat as Dark Pit and Dark Link, neither of whom are Pit or Link, but similarly created clones.
Feel free to disagree, of course, but no one has given me any reason to think Dark Samus deserves her own slot, and as such, I do think the best we can hope for is Dark Samus being a alt for Samus.
My argument is not really Shadow is better than Dark Samus, the Shadow thing was a completely separate thought.Dark samus has more potential to be different than shadow.
While both have good variety from their parallel characters, Dark samus can be made as a fast version of samus with changed moves with no issues in regards to DS's abilities.
Shadow is fast, and to make him slow just for the sake of being different is criminal. He's got move variety just like DS, but his speed is similar with sonic's.
Technically, he could be the first with a MJC (multi-jump cancel). Others who could possibly fill that niche would be Tails or Balloon Fighter. Although, I think it would be a really REALLY weird mechanic and shouldn't even be considered.Last night I had a dream about Ridley doing a DJC.
This thread is really starting to get to me.
I guess I don't understand exactly what that would be.Technically, he could be the first with a MJC (multi jump cancel). Others who could possibly fill that niche would be Tails or Ballon Fighter. Although, I think it would be a really REALLY weird mechanic and shouldn't even be considered.
