Nice! they should explore mounted mechanics more or beyond bowser Jr and we could get a slew of awesome characters.
Hey, thanks!
You know, I'm not going to lie... I've been thinking more and more about PRofessor Hector over the weekend, and I have to say that I'm even MORE into the idea of him being a playable character than before. Don't get me wrong, I've always been keen to the idea of Professor Hector joining Smash, but now I feel like I've got a clearer vision as to what I'd like for him to be like in Smash.
That being said, how would you all implement him?
Professor Hector pulling a Bowser Jr./Koopalings and driving a R.O.B.-like mech into battle?
OR...
Having Professor Hector suddenly gain Dr. Mario's moveset (with his own Stack-Up and Gyromite-themed flavor replacing Dr. Mario's aesthetic)?
The amount of damage Starfy's Assist Trophy has done to his public perception is ridiculous.
We're talking about a character who got the moon blasted at him by an all-powerful kaiju, and threw it right back at him.
Twice.

I was always aware that Starfy was far, FAR more than what his Assist Trophy appearances implied he was, but THIS? Man, Smash Bros. has truly done poor little Starfy dirty...
Yeah, well…Smash's characterizations aren't always accurate to the games they're from.
Take Fire Emblem for example.
Smash's characterization in certain characters hasn't aged well, even if they are iconic.
Oh, boy... don't even get me starting on ol' Wario... I know Smash began to REALLY develop its identity and pick up steam in regards to being a pretty big deal around Brawl's period, but I'd be lying if I said that THIS serving as the 'cornerstone' of his character for about a decade after it was shown off at E3 didn't get on my nerves just a bit...
So if we're including costume swaps, then if we put in Ray from Custom Robo into Smash and make X-Ray, Ray 01 and Ray MKIII costumes for Ray, we'll get an extra N64, Gamecube, GBA and NDS Rep.
No joke, that's legit been my hope for Ray, in the event that gets into Smash Bros. (that all of his models are available as alt. skins of each other).
Okay everyone! Good news.
I have created a massive poll for first party newcomers! I have been working on this or months and I would love for you to give your opinions. Be warned, its kind of long.
Here is the poll!
And here is a thread with more info. Please visit that too! I'll need volunteers to help spread this thing. I'm hoping for 500 unique voters.
Happy trails.
I didn't get to say this yesterday since I had to go to work, but I actually voted on the poll. I guess it won't come as a HUGE shock to anyone here, but I was... VERY generous on the 'Miscellaneous' portion of the poll
(As in, I voted for everyone...).
As for the part of the poll where we could add our own suggestions, I added Jonathan Raimi (Geist), Naomi Moriha/Jasmine Callsign (Jet Impulse), Sayaka Amemiya (Ouendan), Starr (Elite Beat Agents), Mr. Stevenson (Gumshoe)... those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head, but I'm sure there were a few more...
IDK how relevant this is to this thread, but…
There was a problem fetching the tweet
As someone who grew up watching the likes of Pokémon on Kids' WB, seeing such a big part of my childhood leave us like this was truly a heartbreaker.
This is also FAR from the most important thing, but I'm genuinely curious as to how Nintendo of America is going to tackle Jigglypuff in Smash Bros. going forward. I imagine that it would be in... poor taste (to say the least) to continue re-using Rachael Lillis' voice clips.
