uh no. first of all Mii being in brawl must be a joke. not to be mean. And Peach getting cut is a ridiculous thing for you to say. it would never ever happen. she's too important. Peach, Mario ,Luigi,Bowser are the most important of the mario world. if it wasnt for Peach mario would be out of a job lol. but seriously the only move i think they need to change is the toad move.If she loses her sports equipment smash, it could go to Mii. That would be convenient. However, Peach's classic moeveset is freaking sweet and Super Princess Peach hasn't been around enough long enough to become standard.
Frankly, I would kind of like Peach to be cut. I love how she plays in Melee, but I don't really think she plays a large enough role in enough Mario games to be included. This has been changing recently, but I would give it some more time. Five Mario characters is a comfortable number. I'm conflicted.
Here's the thing: Mario has tons of characters. The franchise could take over Brawl if no one's careful. As it is, there are already five Mario characters, not counting DK. Wario's being added, which brings it up to six. That's half again as many as the runner ups for slots got in Melee. The only criteria I can come up with for Mario inclusion is "playable or villain in more than one mainline game." Yoshi is arguably more important than Peach. I just don't get playing Ever-Distressed Damsels. I'm more upset that she was included in Melee. She's proved herself enough as not-a-damsel by now, but only just.uh no. first of all Mii being in brawl must be a joke. not to be mean.

The only Mario characters are Peach, Mario, Luigi, and Bowzer. Yoshi is in from his own games, as is Wario. Now, with Super Princess Peach, Peach might become a technical stand alone as well.Here's the thing: Mario has tons of characters. The franchise could take over Brawl if no one's careful.

Also: for Nintendo to sell miis, they need to be included in as many games as possible. Most games have established continuities into which the miis will not clearly fit. Smash Bros. is not so burdened.
Finally: if it wasn't for the Triforce, Link, zelda, and Gannondorf wouldn't have anything to fight about, but is the triforce playable?
No, he's not.Yoshi is in from his own games
No, he's not.as is Wario.
That's like saying Luigi will, just because he had his own game.Now, with Super Princess Peach, Peach might become a technical stand alone as well.
Wario and Donkey Kong have multiple titles in games that play inherently differently from Mario games, and don't seem to have anything to do with the Mario Universe. Yoshi, not so much... However, they certainly don't COME from their own games. Their origins lay squarely in the Mario franchise. As far as I am concerned, only DK can count as separate since the original DK was Cranky Kong. (Really!) I still want to see an event match where Mario fights Bowser, Wario, and Donkey Kong at the same time.yoshi, wario, and Dk are representing their own franchises hence that's why they have different signs and theme songs for their victory. mario, peach,luigi, and bowser all have the mushroom sign and the mario theme. so yeah he's right.
Yoshi is representing Yoshi Story. Sure he originated as a Mario character, but in Smash, he is considered representing his own franchise, which is why his symbol and song are different.Wario and Donkey Kong have multiple titles in games that play inherently differently from Mario games, and don't seem to have anything to do with the Mario Universe.

Personally I don't think that it's opponents fault always, since there are people who just spam d-smash and so it's spammers fault. Ofcourse there are situations when it's non-peach players fault like grouch(sp?) canlelling with samus in d-smash.I think Peach should have her comeback... Everything should be kept the same...
Yes, her D-Smash is a bit powerful, but its basically the victims fault for falling into it and DIing the wrong direction... Turnips, Toad, Butt Bomb (sorry, forgot what's it called), and other attacks has its negative values, which should evens things out...
You got a point but seeing that cross overs are not very significant let's take enemys for example you dont see goombas, koopas or piranha plants in any DK or Wario games the locations as well are diferent and besides you mention games which are spin-offs as for yoshi i completely agree.Technically, it's more like their series have the ability to exist independently of the Mario universe, because they do still cross over a little bit here and there (Wario has a Mario Dartboard in his office and Kremling goalie is in Mario Strikers, for example). Still, those are only sparse or indirect things, so it's close enough that you can say they're generally independent of Mario.
(Yoshi, on the other hand, ALWAYS has a big connection to Mario or some major Mario aspect in his games)

I believe it is Super Mario Land II, and yes he was the villian in that game.Now, Wario. I can't recall his original game, but I'm pretty certain it was a Mario game. Mario vs. Wario, I think...
So your calling DK a Mario character!? *slaps in the face*Where did DK first appear? He appeared as DK in Donkey Kong, fighting Mario.
Where does he always show up now? He appears in every Mario game I can think of, as a character (not a picture on a wall or anything) except the "proper" Mario games, he's even gone back to his rivalry days with Mario vs Donkey Kong.
That's the real story! The DK you have in mind is actually a grown up DK Jr. The character Donkey Kong has devloped so good over the years, that you can't count the games he was in without Mario as "spin off" games... Since he devloped a whole new franchise with Donkey Kong Country, where -with the exception of Jungle Beat- all DK games are based of. Mario vs DK is a Mario game, since Mario is the main character.As far as I am concerned, only DK can count as separate since the original DK was Cranky Kong. (Really!)
I said THEIR SERIES. Mario Land 2 isn't Wario's SERIES. Wario Ware and Donkey Kong Country (as well as latter Donkey Kong specific games such as Jungle Beat) have absolutely NOTHING to do with Mario.That's not completely true.

Yoshi, which you haven't mentioned, but others have, is definitely Mario. He's had a few spin-offs as the main character, but all of them included the Mario Universe:
Yoshi's Island = Rescue Baby Mario and Luigi
Yoshi's Story = Not sure
Yoshi's Touch And Go = Rescue Baby Mario
Yoshi's Island DS = Rescue lots of Mario characters
