Now I want all Pokemon to turn into Lapras underwater
Isn't Lapras's shtick staying afloat? wouldn't tentacool/magikarp make more sense?

The sonic boom tv show is the best thing ever. The writers don;t know what a 4th wall is and I love it.
The boy band episode by itself is amazing.

He is still popular people still can recognize him the internet keeps him popular
It's pretty much fact that he's not as popular as he was. He was one of the top requests for Brawl, but even in JP where he still does have some popularity, he's faded into the teens.

I forgot to mention that I started the count from April 1st.

Roy is currently in the top 5, but we won't include him in the top 10 we are doing.

There's 2 or 3 characters in the top 10 that I have not seen mentioned yet.

Also in case of a tie, I'll consider the order you list them! I'll quote everyone's post before I post the final results.
King. Rool, Snake, Arle Nadja, That Yokai Watch Mascot, Tales character, Dixie Kong, Chorus Men, Waluigi, Daisy, Wolf.

Lapras because it was the Surf sprite for Gen 2
It's already 8-bits too

Awesome to see Pichu top. I didn't think Wolf and Krystal would both top, though. Only one is super popular in the East. But things change over time, don't they? Well, not that odd regardless. They're the two most popular since Wolf is a vet and Krystal has the highest potential for a non-clone-like moveset(semi or otherwise).

So after reading through the Nintendo Reddit, I though of an interesting debate. Do you guys prefer cartridges or discs? I'm personally more neutral on this whole thing, but I would like to hear your guys thoughts!
This would actually be a good Splatfest topic...

Star Hill. Why do you ask?
It's pretty much fact that he's not as popular as he was. He was one of the top requests for Brawl, but even in JP where he still does have some popularity, he's faded into the teens .
So what happend to the old Geno fans that were in brawl days and what was the reasons of getting less supporters now? They're not really lost as much as they have just simply moved on. For those of who had SMRPG as a big part of their childhoods, were edging close to 30 (unless if they got it on the VC) now and a lot of people just really don't have the time to be involved in this sort of thing anymore. They probably still like Geno and wants him in smash but they're more likely too invested in day to day responsibilities to care that much about it anymore. But that doesn't mean he is not recognizable anymore, he is just being less talked about just like Crash bandicoot. Each year passes Geno become more recognizable (because people does discover new things on the internet) but less talked about.
I am sure Geno is less requested than he was in brawl but he can still hold up.

Honestly just give me a Paper Mario for NX that has TTYD's gameplay and charm and I don't care if it's cartridge or disk

Well uh, I mean, good luck getting him into Smash...you forget he's 3rd party. I'm just saying though

That is literally the same with EVERY CHARACTER IN EXISTENCE, and most characters gain notability faster than Geno, and become way more well-known.

Geno has appeared in one game. He is third party, and Nintendo has no reason to try to gain the rights from Square Enix due to his small fanbase. DLC is all about fanservice, and while Geno would be cool, he doesn't appeal to the fans like Mewtwo with his wide demand or Ryu with his notoriety and unique moveset.

Give me something cool and unique that Geno could bring to Smash, or proof of his "large fanbase", and maybe I'll believe your argument a sliver more.

You misspelled "Spyro The Dragon" as "Jack Frost". That's a weird typo!

I wonder how much more fan-art Lucha-chu has gotten since the announcement.

Nah, I didn't.

I dunno why you think a nearly exclusively Playstation character who almost everyone hates the current incarnation of is more likely then a character owned by one of Sega's closest friends and who has appeared in over 30 games..

EDIT: My B, Spyro has appeared in numerous Nintendo games. Regardless, Atlus is closer to Nintendo and Jack has appeared in more Nintendo console games.
