100%!How do you guys feel about Piranha Plant's chances of returning?
Can’t say I’ve ever played a Red Dead game but I can relate to thinking about how cool a character would be in Smash when you’re playing their game. I just beat Triangle Strategy for the second time in order to get the good ending and I was thinking how cool content from that game would be in Smash. I think the main female character, Frederica Aesfrost has a lot of fun abilities and she’s just a good relatable character.I'm playing through Red Dead Redemption and I kinda want John Marston to get in Smash lol.
He'd have to be made a little more cartoony but he could work, I've always wanted a cowboy in Smash and the game has enough mechanics to make him work.
Yeah, I don't get how there's so much doubt on Little Mac's chances. That's just so wrong.How the **** did Little Mac fall down there?
I know he can't recover but that's way too low for him.
Kirby hat is ready for him.I'm playing through Red Dead Redemption and I kinda want John Marston to get in Smash lol.

Red Dead probably has a much better chance of getting in as a Rockstar rep than GTA does. I mean, we've already discussed that the GTA series is notorious for its controversies. Then again, Rockstar always has been controversial, so...I'm playing through Red Dead Redemption and I kinda want John Marston to get in Smash lol.

Where's Chrom and Dark Samus?Made a tier list based much of a priority I think it would be for certain veterans to return.

As others have said, he's not a very essential character from a series already stacked with fighters, and is easily the least needed for said series, and was seemingly already very low priority in Ultimate. I feel pretty confident guessing he's below all the Ult newcomers and probably bottom 5 priority in general. Certiantly among non-clone/first party characters at least, I can't think of more than like, 1-2 he might reasonably get priority over.How do you guys feel about Piranha Plant's chances of returning?
So, a lot of franchises that were added in Smash 4 onwards only have one stage. The older franchises have a variety of stages but it always struck me as strange that some of these prominent franchises only have one. Even something as limited as Ice Climber had two stages.
So let's try and make a new stage for the Smash 4 onwards franchise that only have one.
...Oh, I genuinely forgot them. Whoops.Where's Chrom and Dark Samus?

Choosing to believe the whole Garry's Mod fiasco is a false flag by trolls until outright confirmed otherwise. Why would Nintendo go after mods of a 20 year old game like this? To be petty? There's no way they spent a whole two decades in obliviousness to the game's existence.In recent news, Source engine games are clearly on Nintendo's radar. I think Gordon Freeman's chances are better than ever guys!
This is definitely the way to go, I think that'd be a fantastic stage.NYC Street with the jogging scene as a stage cameo when Little Mac is not being played
Damn, RIP Plant.Piranha Plant's chances of returning are as good as Ultimate being ported to the Switch 2

Persona
Dragon Quest
Banjo Kazooie
Fatal Fury / King of Fighters
ARMS

Kingdom Hearts
If Geese Tower was a stage, we could literally throw people off the building like how Geese gets thrown off of the place in the game!Metro City
Geese Tower
Dragon's Nest
If we got a Metro City stage, I'd hope they'd include music from the Final Fight series and Captain Commando.Metro City
How about The Knight from Hollow Knight and Zagreus from Hades?Here's an interesting question: what are some Indie game characters you'd like to see in Smash?
Outside of the already extremely popular ones like Shantae, Shovel Knight and Sans. I mean. Those ones are already heavily requested and are popular enough that they've all landed appearances in Ultimate in some manner, even if not as playable characters. I'm asking for Indie characters who haven't made any kind appearance in a Smash game yet. They can from either be Indie games that are already popular or lesser known titles. Anything goes as long as it's a character from an Indie game.
I thought about asking what characters everyone here would like to see in a roster for a hypothetical Indie-game exclusive crossover fighter game (which could include anything from playable/main characters to antagonists and secondary characters as Smash itself does) rather than just more newcomers to Smash , but perhaps this isn't the right thread for that topic.
The Knight from Hollow Knight is an obvious one, but there's others I'd love to see:Here's an interesting question: what are some Indie game characters you'd like to see in Smash?

I think the problem is that he might be a bit too serious for Smash Bros. even Kazuya Mishima is a goofbal, look at him.I'm playing through Red Dead Redemption and I kinda want John Marston to get in Smash lol.

Mainly just Peppino, the Noise, and Anton. Penny would be cool too, but she's not a character I actively want.Here's an interesting question: what are some Indie game characters you'd like to see in Smash?
She probably classifies as super popular, but I think Reimu or anyone from Touhou would be an interesting pick as long as the content included was only from stuff ZUN created.Here's an interesting question: what are some Indie game characters you'd like to see in Smash?

The music alone makes me want a Touhou rep in smashIf Reimu Hakurei ever gets into Smash, they could probably use Maiden's Capriccio for her reveal trailer.

I think Joker and Kaz are more likely to return than people think.
I kinda just wanna hear Bad Apple (and U.N. Owen Was Her?) in SmashThe music alone makes me want a Touhou rep in smash
Eh, probably Kaz more than Joker.I think Joker and Kaz are more likely to return than people think.
I feel that way about most third parties, but there’s barely any precedent for what to expect. Namco is most definitely developing the next game and Joker was a big hit. Tekken and Persona are also big, important franchises in their own right. But also Dragon Quest is as big as Mario and Pokemon in Japan, Sephiroth is probably the most popular villain in gaming, Sora is the most requested Smash character ever, Minecraft is Minecraft, Banjo is like an honorary Nintendo character, Simon is a great representative of the NES.I think Joker and Kaz are more likely to return than people think.
Sonic vs Cloud in Super Smash Bros while U.N. Owen Was Her? plays in the background sounds like the craziest weeb gamer fantasy of the 2000sI kinda just wanna hear Bad Apple (and U.N. Owen Was Her?) in Smash
I don’t really play a ton of indie games but here’s a few of my favorites from the ones I have played:Here's an interesting question: what are some Indie game characters you'd like to see in Smash?

no it does.Sorry, but this really doesn't work with Smash Bros. Each character is already designed with a certain amount of authenticity in mind, suited to specific roles that best classify each character. Like Mario and Kirby need to be beginner characters, there isn't a ton of flexibility here to make them over the top crazy. Sure, there's a lot you can do, but there needs to be an amount of cohesion to it and it can't be too unwieldly.
Some characters can get away with full reworks, I think. Like Link, or Samus. But Link probably isn't going to stop using arrows and bombs, Samus probably isn't going to abandon the charge shot and missiles. There's a lot of flexibility in respect to how these moves can operate, but the essences of each character are clearly thought out and best matched to the most efficient way to represent what they are about. Making too many of these changes comes off arbitrary and risks making the characters feel even less like themselves.
Not to mention certain essential returning characters, like (IMO) Peach or King Dedede, who personally I feel are about as well done as they could be give or take a move or two. Saying every character gets revamped is one thing, saying they all get entirely new movesets is a totally different thing. Not even to mention characters like Fox or Villager / Isabelle - where do we go with them? Everyone has potential to grow and change, but arbitrarily changing everything about the current roster is over-correcting and unlikely unless the entire structure of the game changes and everyone is forced to accommodate it. Which I'd be interested to see - a traditional Nintendo crossover fighter is a dream of mine - but having that take the place of Smash doesn't seem too feasible.
no i specifically wanna play as marioIsn't that the point of newcomers? If you're tired of Mario, you can play as Pac-man.
