I feel for Sakurai if Smash Switch is already in development. Who exactly does he have to add outside of more third parties and stray Nintendo allstars like the Inklings, Toad, K. Rool, Dixie Kong, and the forever doomed Ridley? A new Pokémon?

I doubt he's really had time to consider many newcomers yet if he's already at work on the next installment.
I mean obviously Midna and Dark Samus...

I feel like he's got lots of time to consider newcomers if he's working on the next installment since that'd literally be his job though...

Not to mention he's got a Fan Ballot full of ideas he could use...

I wanted to like Scott Pilgrim but I was just kinda meh to it and I really never cared about it.

The movie felt kinda pretentious to me and it doesn't help that I've never liked the actor.

I love the game references and the best em up is crazy fun with an amazing soundtrack

The fan ballot is used...

Shrek swamps the Battle!
Goku summons the dragon!
Mr. T pitys Smash Fools!
Britney Spears dances into the fight!

Sakurai: -sitting leisurely at home trusting Namco not to screw up- Oh god damn it. Well, that's something I have to clean up when I come back next time.

Waluigi, Bandana Dee and the ones Aetheri Aetheri mentionned are all good options. And that's without mentionning those in the Ballot that weren't mentionned already.

Imagine if the next Switch trailer went like this:

-Scenes of people enjoying life
-People bring out their consoles
-Playing Smash Bros.
-2 Secs. of Mario VS. Cloud VS. Pit VS. Ice Climbers
-Cuts to new scene

I would die of laughter.

Bandana Dee won't get in I fear.

I don't think he's as important to Kirby as people really make him out to be. Nor does he have the super sized blow up stardom of other cult choices like say Rosalina.

It could happen, but I don't feel it's as likely as people believe.

Also, I don't see Sakurai working on this on for now.

Smash 4 is barely 2 years old now and Sakurai isn't a guy that likes to be stuck on the same thing for a long time.

Plus I want to see something new a creative and he always makes something different again. I loved Air Ride and Kid Icarus Uprising is really fun despite the hand cramps

I'd be hype alone simply because it'd confirmed Cloud and Ice Climbers returning.

Honestly I wouldn't expect more than four or five new characters in an updated port.

- Ice Climbers
- Wolf
- Inkling
- Robinhoot
- Chorus Kids (depending on how much of their Moveset and movements and such were planned before being scrapped)

The main thing I want out of the next smash is a faster, more aggressive game and more movement options; mainly dash dancing and wave-dashing.

If we're doing more Smash characters again- and why wouldn't we, it's the site's backbone in the hype years- the most intresting one to me is the Mario series. All of the A-cast and the majority of the B-cast has been used. There's only 3 more characters I could see and to be honest, my reasons for wanting them fall into "completes a set"

Waluigi- Mario/Wario Bros
Daisy- Mario Princesses
Captain Toad- Surrogate for normal Toad (forever trapped in Peach's bustle) to complete SMB2/3D world cast

Wonder if Sakurai is mad enough to make a moveset for a character who can't jump in a platform fighter.

The only thing Waluigi should be added to is the trash bin.

Waluigi is more than a B class. He's a BM class for "beloved meme".:troll:

If we get Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo Switch, I wouldn't want it to be called that. I want to go back to when the Smash games had cool fighting names.

Something like Super Smash Bros. Clash, Super Smash Bros. Battle, or Super Smash Bros. War.

I'd like to see Pauline get in to represent the original Donkey Kong. But I'd wager Cranky is more likely to do that.

Super Smash Bros. Rumble could be another good name.

Speaking of, the DK series is another interesting one as they have a lot of potential characters with reasonably sized fandoms. And one oversized one.

Cranky Kong may be the closest we get to Scrooge McDuck or Shovel Knight in Smash.

Waluigi's my most wanted Mario character now that Junior and Rosalina got in.

Guys.
We've gone too far.
I accept our new joke overlords.
spoilered bcause it's fanservice-y which might be a little bit of a grey zone.

If want a unique title for a Smash game, I really don't want one that uses a thesaurus for "Melee/Brawl" nor do I want a "for Console" name.

Paper Mario would be a more interesting character. Also Geno who was actually planned for 4.

I'm trying to think of one that would match the on the go nature of the Switch but "Smash Go" sounds a bit too much like another game... would be rad, if a licencing nightmare.

I want Smash to be called "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo Switch"

Then see that on Twitch instead of "Super Smash Bros. for Wii U"

I mean Smash Go would work, since you could take it anywhere.

Who doesn't want to interrupt their neighbors drink social on the rooftop with Smash?

And neither of those two can swim through the air or do a crotch chop taunt, so I don't see the same appeal. :p
