Well I haven't.
I would say:This is my first forum post of the year, so I wanna try something new. So... I usually participate in those fun little lists we make, but I never came up with a game of my own, and I kinda wanna try that.
I think one way to get folks hyped about characters is their movesets. So, I want to see if y'all can answer any (or all) of these, and I will try to provide detailed concepts for the one response that I like the most (bonus points if I pull this off before FP5's announcement). I hope that makes sense. If not, I'll try to explain it more eloquently.
List a character that:
1. You absolutely can't come up with a moveset for, even if ya tried. The wackier, the better.
2. You like that ya probably could make a moveset for, but don't feel like doing it (but you wouldn't mind reading about it)
3. A character you think deserves more awareness
4. You have little to no attachment to, but think they would be dope conceptually
This includes side characters and 4th party characters. Again... you don't have to answer every one, but it might help your odds. I'll provide a detailed concept for the one list I like most. If ya don't win, don't feel left out though! All participants will receive an internet hug in the form of one like.

I don't really think shes likely but then I don't think the vast majority of characters mentioned in this thread are likely.
Replace 4 with Kratos or other big Sony character and I agree.
if u want to live up to expectations another hero/banjo culture gap isn't really the best route. something more universally loved and accepted, someone like sora or steve i guess? master chief and miku are just exclusively loved by those regions and not as exponentially large outside of it.
At this point there are very very very few characters huge in both the Western world and Japan.
yep.
I said "most hype". Not worldwide appeal. That means characters that would create a ton of hype from either around the world, the West, or Japan.
Really curious as to why you think Travis/NMH deserve to be in Smash. And I don't mean this in a mocking manner either, I love Suda wackiness and NMH.
Announced? Maybe.
Maybe deserving wasn't the best choice of word. I just like Suda and appreciate how unforgiving No More Heroes is. I've personally only played the first, so, I really can't even speak too heavily. Personally, I don't like to actively think about how commercial success factors into a character's chances, aha.
Or are they really just waiting this out?
It does make you wonder... Maybe they want Fighter 6 to be in at least presentable form so they can reveal them simultaneously, presumabley shadow dropping the former.If the estimated release of Fighter 5 is 2/29/2020 at the latest, just what the hell is Fighter 5? I doubt it's just for waiting reasons, Terry and Banjo released about one month prior to when they were meant to.
Just what the hell kind of gimmick does this new character have?
The descriptions fit with most of my most wanted characters, except 4 (I usually don't like this type of characters, I prefer the gimmicks).

It totally is but it's still curious.
So, like Ike and Chrom?
No idea, but I still think it's probably due to marketing reasons that we've yet to see FP5. If Nintendo is planning a direct in the near future, it makes sense to save them for it.
Geez, just how more beautiful can these CG trailers get? The detail they put in them is amazing, makes me wonder what the budget is for them.
1. Hornet from Daytona USA (it's a car)
For number 2, Buzz Buzz from Earthbound.
I'd be hyped Arc System's art style alone would be enough to convince me.
1) Nightmare - Heavyweights aren't my cup of tea but if I had choose one it'd be Nightmare from Soul Calibur.
I had a dream once about a Smash direct where all the Smash characters in a courtroom, the Inklings were on trial for vandalizing the faces of the other fighters with ink while they were asleep. It's an open-and-shut case, Dedede the judge was about to find the Inklings guilty until... "HOLD IT!" Phoenix Wright was revealed as the new character.
Clearly fake. The lack of red splotches makes it clear that there is no Ken giving a thumbs up.Ah, of course.
More blurry = more legit
Having said that, I'd like to announce the latest leak:
I thought about choosing her for that reason.
So she doesn't pilot her mech?
Just give us FP5 already and we'll no longer be starving for info....1) Spiritomb - I mean j-just how, how? It's a rock, a rock with a spirit spilling out.This is my first forum post of the year, so I wanna try something new. So... I usually participate in those fun little lists we make, but I never came up with a game of my own, and I kinda wanna try that.

I think she'd be a lot of fun, it not everyday you come across a character with an invisible blade that can not only shoot light beams, but compressed super-high pressure air, with the force of a hurricane, and use it to not only blast your enemies off the map, but to launch yourself across the stage, and in the air at supersonic speeds
No offense but complaining about the lack of news every single day doesn't make an announcement come any sooner.Pretty much everyone is going to fondly remember this speculation period as one of the biggest times we all had to go through dead air.
She does, but just like Elma, I personally think that both characters would only use their mechs in their Final Smashes. Although I wouldn't mind being proven wrong.
I thought Master Chief was deconfirmed a while back regarding Smash.
Fortunately for you, I actively support all of these characters, ahaha. The Howard twins are a bit of a challenge, but it can definitely work. I already came up with a 2B moveset that incorporates EVERYTHING, and explained a way for it to reasonably work. BTW, feel free to join the support group.
My Pokemon knowledge is limited, but a spirit rock sounds hilarious. Another vote for Travis, so I might do that one just because. Sakura Wars for sure needs love. Sora does seem challenging. Good list.
I really appreciate how ya you stuck with your usual go-to's and provided explanations. I can for sure make the Contra guys work, but I can also see how it's tricky. Kunio does have a lot to pull from and could use the exposure. I might just post two fun, yet radically different concepts for him. Also... Metal Slug without a pilot would be hilarious. It wouldn't be the first fighting game with a playable tank, too.
Smash would probably reference Miku's Project Diva stuff. I want a singer/dancer on the roster, so I might whip something up, to explain how she'd work and drop Vocaloid knowledge on the side. I've seen people Joke about Tony Hawk alot. I might do a moveset for him because he's the only IRL person I'd bother making a legit moveset for that could easily 1-up that one Vin Diesel moveset that was posted. I feel the same way about Assassin's Creed lol. Frogger is one of those "this would actually be pretty cool" kinda ideas the more ya think about it.
That's the second Pokemon I had to Google. It looks like it's wearing glasses and a bow tie! Savvy Style is indeed slept on, and I've been doing my part here to bring awareness to it from day 1. Wright is tricky; I have a couple of ideas I wouldn't mind sharing though. Same; I never played Danganronpa (but I know someone who's a huge fan), but I think it'd be interesting.
Another vote for Frogger. I kinda felt the same way about Jill lol. You're so true about Story of Seasons. Advance Wars really was done dirty.
I'll get back to this later (spoiler alert: you might be one of the winners), but I just want to say thank you! This was beyond informative; I love everything about it. I'd have to do think outside of the box (and do quite a bit of research), but I think it'd be well worth the effort. Also... it's Hamtaro time. Yet again, thanks.1-Baba from Baba is You
A Sokoban-like game that lets you mess with the rules of the game itself. The main gimmick of the game is that you can move blocks with instructions and combine them differently to change the behavior of the elements on screen: you can even become the whole level instead of just the character, and IMO this can't be translated to Smash moveset without some incredible creativity
2-Classic Ganon (many of my most wanted characters fit this category though)
I've seen some fan movesets for him already and I like those concepts, I don't feel the need to make up a moveset for him myself.
3-the cat from Alley Cat (a classic DOS game)
I love this game, it's very old but fun, addicting and simple. The character should be an equivalent of Duck Hunt where you don't control just the character but also the broom and other game elements (actively or passively).
Honorable mentions:
-Parin from Gurumin
Gurumin is a fun platformer/adventure game that's probably slighty inspired by Zelda; Parin uses a drill staff as a weapon. The gameplay of the original game lacks some polish but there are many interesting concepts that would be cool for a Smash moveset; from the rhythm based critical hits, to the level up/down of the drill, to why not, even the ability to summon the monsters. Parin already has a complex moveset in the original game, that with some tweaks can be adapted to Smash very easily IMO.
-(since 4th parties count) Hamtaro
I know it seems ridicolous to think Hamtaro as a fighter, but well... I recently (I admit, it was initially just for the lol and for the Master Sword cameo/parody) played the Game Boy Color/Advance trilogy (there are more games but only 3 of them are adventure games), and I was surprised, especially by the first two games. Granted that they are obviously games for young kids, they have some nice original concepts, they have some consistency and identity as games, even ignoring the existence of the anime (they're not really connected to it aside of using the same cast of main characters - hamsters only, no humans). think of some graphic adventures such as Monkey Island and similar; instead of collecting and combining items, you have those "Ham-Chat", that's the hamster language. In order to interact with the NPCs you have to learn those words by putting other hamsters in specific situations, and the game is a huge puzzle where you need to experiment with those words in order to find a way to make progress in the story.
Each word also has a specific animation, in fact they can be used to compose a dance in a minigame, but at times they are also used to physically interact with the world. For example, a word that means "enemy", features Hamtaro with an angry face and a big flame behind: you can use that flame to light up an actual fire.
The third game is less interesting IMO because it's mostly a collection of minigames with a story and a world map, but it introduces the gimmick of working together with other hamsters as a group, where each one has a different skill, and you have to build up the party by selecting the most useful characters from time to time.
Can't help but think about all those gameplay elements as a huge inspiration for a very unique and hilarious Smash moveset.
Wouldn't be epic Hamtaro vs Pikachu?!?
4-Lemmings
I'm interested in a moveset based on controlling a group of characters instead of one individual. Ice Climbers let you control 2 at once, but it's not really a group, it's just a couple. Pikmin & Olimar are close, but you still control Olimar, and pikmins are his "weapons", his Yoshi's eggs. I would like to see a character where you can play as multiple entities at once. Something like Olimar is fine, but without Olimar, the pikmin alone. This is what Lemmings should be IMO.
I never played a Lemmings game, I only played some Mario vs DK games that I think are a bit inspired by it, but nothing else... I just think it would be a cool concept.
Conceptually, the Reckless Wiimote guy is as silly as it is genius. Solid list overall. And another vote for Andy.
Just you wait til the second Fighter Pass is supposed to end in 2022 and we only get a new fighter every 6-7 months with the information getting announced only days prior.Pretty much everyone is going to fondly remember this speculation period as one of the biggest times we all had to go through dead air.
He's a Mii Swordfighter costume coming with Uniracer.While this does suck, at least there's another San Andreas character who can fill our hearts.
They're Uniracer's side special.
