When it comes to characters from Sony, I will say never. I’d sooner think we’d see Goku first.
That's interesting. Do you call all FPSs that or just the ones that resemble the style/engine of OG Doom?
Finally someone else who cares about that Napoleon game!

Oooooh, fun. Here's my Dream "Infinite Budget" DLC:
1. Shantae. Somehow, in Ultimate alone, we got Daisy, Simon, and Banjo, three of my most-wanted for ages. To make this perfect, I just need Shantae
2. The Prince from Katamari Damacy. He would be a blast and you know it.
3. Amaterasu from Okami. I'm actually kind of blown away that she hasn't made it in. I know her game has never really sold all that well, but man, I feel like Sakurai would've had a field day with her moveset. I just want more quadrupedal fighters in this game so badly, guys. Speaking of...
4. Wolf Link/Midna. The fact that Midna, one of Legend of Zelda's greatest characters, is negated to an AT never sat right with me. Promote her to fighter.
5. Tetra from Wind Waker. Zelda needs more reps than just another Link, and as much as I'd love to see Skull Kid, I'd just change Young Link's Final Smash to Fierce Diety for that sweet, sweet Majora's Mask content.
6. Urbosa from Breath of the Wild...No, really, Zelda needs more reps.
7. Sceptile from Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire. I think it's something of a shame that we just kinda skipped over Gen 3 in terms of Smash representation.
8. Geno (I'm counting him as a Mario character, dang it!) Not for me, but for all of my buddies who are on pins and needles during every single damn Smash-related Direct. Just give the doll his due.
9. A Tetromino. No, I'm actually being dead serious. I desperately want to see what Sakurai and his team would do with it.
10. Leon Kennedy, complete with both Racoon City PD and RE4 Jacket costumes. It seems so obvious to have an RE character despite the fact that he would probably have a super boring moveset, but we need RE4 representation in this game somehow...wait...
10.5. The Merchant from RE4. Make it happen, Sakurai! I'll buy it at a high price!
The beautiful irony about this idea being pushed that a third-party will be automatically be more, "hype," because nobody would believe that they'd be in a huge crossover of popular game characters, is that they're actually exactly what anybody could believe would be in a huge crossover of popular game characters.
Hopefully, with HRC said to be the last new mode added to Smash, maybe we'll get to have some more additional content like ATs and items.
Home Run is the last offline mode. Weren’t some more online modes datamined?

That's rather reductionist. The argument is that first parties can't compare to third parties in most aspects except for appealing to existing Smash fans.
To be clear I wasn't saying (or at least didn't mean) that Parappa would be better. It was just a comment. A lot of Rhythm Heaven's tunes are bangers as well so I say let's add both if it's possible. Also there's no way we'll see a 4th party before a Sony rep. I'll eat a tomato if that happens.
I'm done.
Being 1,000% honest, I'm right there with you. I managed to come up with 20 newcomers I'd like to see added, but even with those I know I'm just being greedy. The roster could be done after this fighter's pass and I would absolutely be satisfied and still in awe of it.
Ooooh this sounds fun! Be warned, I'm gonna go all out on this because infinite budget = infinite possibilities. I'm gonna spoiler tag this because this ended up being way longer than I expected.
I saw this video some years ago where someone modded Blaziken into Captain Falcon in Smash 4 and it blew my mind. It just fits so perfectly that it could work as an echo.
King of Fighters is actually really popular in China, so Terry could cover China as well. The most views for a fighting game tourney ever was a Chinese KOF tournament.
I want more bosses too...
I wish they would add the ability to pick one or more assist trophies and use them like assists in other games. I don't understand why they would put so much work into them and not add this feature.
That doesn't really work all that well when a significant number of them do stage wide effects and even the ones that exist have hugely varying degrees of effectiveness. You'd have to actually try to balance assist trophies and their powers for such a mode, and that's honestly a **** ton of effort for probably not a big enough payoff. Especially considering how few of them actually have pronounced and quick effects, like you'd be spawning a character for 15 seconds of craziness and a Rathalos would destroy you while a Waluigi could be easily dealt with...
Why would they try to balance it? It's not for competitive play.
People think a Gen 8 Pokémon is kinda likely, but it's not like anyone is actively supporting one.
From Pokemon, there’s a whole bunch of possibilities. Individual Pokemon (Sceptile, Decidueye, a Gen 8 rep) as well as Trainers who represent other regions (for instance, a Gen 3 or Gen 5 Trainer with 3 starter Pokemon from that region).
Game balance is required in all aspects of a game. It's why bad characters like King K. Rool are nerfed anyway because in the hands of a casual against other casuals they can feel cheap or unfun. With the Assist Trophy example, if your favorite assist trophy is Riki you're going to have a bad time against players that use The Moon. One is situationally helpful RNG, the other is Magic Burst, but no RNG and you get to keep using your special attacks.
Interesting choices, but I feel that Nakoruru won't be playable in this game, unfortunately. I'm hoping that Terry's playstyle implements a Pokemon Trainer esque, where two other FF or KoF characters team with Terry and you'll be able to choose one of the three before a match. This would distinguish him from Ken and make him a lot more interesting to play.
I don't think developers should feel guilty for "friends" not willing to play with a semblance of fairness.
I know right? There was probably some rule that echoes could only be from the franchise they were cloned from but this feels so perfect.
I was being more cynical than anything else, but I'll better explain what my concerns are.
No but they should have a situation where one player can't use most of the options in the game because one of them is basically a win button. It's disheartening to the player and pointless to develop (unless it was some silly really hard to get unlockable in which case breaking the balance is the point. Even then it's not something that would be fun for long).
"Joining Smash didn't bring back my game..." *cries*
It's so weird that Mother 3 hasn't been localized yet. I heard there were some issues with music licensing, but I'm sure they could've worked that out by now.No but they should have a situation where one player can't use most of the options in the game because one of them is basically a win button.

To be fair, while Smash has a habit of giving dying or dead Nintendo franchise's a chance in the spot light, so far Ultimate has more or less been doing to same thing with its third party inclusion, Castlevania, Fatal fury and Banjo Kazzoie might just get the resurgence they need thanks to this, and one could say Dragon quest needed this as well outside of Japan.
I dunno. Pretty much every battle them in the game (of which there are a lot of) would need to be licensed. If just one of them asks for too much money the entire project has to be called off (or replaced with something new which is a pretty big gamble considering how good these songs are). Some are based off of classical music which I believe is in the public domain but others are owned by DC and who knows what else. Top it with some really hard to translate dialogue (they're not going to use the fan translation) and potential content issues I could see why this could be an impossible task.
EarthBound has some music stuffs, too. I think samples fall under fair use if they’re short enough/aren’t directly the original (which is what the composer did, make short tunes based off of other things i.e. Batman while making the rest of a track completely original), but idk. I fear they may be reluctant to localize it due to people possibly getting political about it
Mother 3 has battle themes that are 100% original, really I think most of the themes are either original or take from the public domain save for a short Batman thing and maybe Beatles or whatever. Whenever a theme takes something, though, it’s usually a short sample in the game’s own soundfont (one theme may completely take something but I’m sure it was one of the classical compositions in the public domain).
If I'm being honest, I don't feel its wrong to like that newcomers are from first parties or third parties and its just really a matter of preference. For me, I personally prefer third parties due the crossover factor that a lot of the third parties bring given that they cover a lot of genres that Nintendo doesn't do at all.
