While I agree they don't care who we actually want for DLC both this time and last time Mewtwo wasn't the only one. Roy was also heavily requested to return and he did.The sad part is that, we will propably get really disappointed by the DLC, like in Smash4 when only one character people asked for got into the roster, Mewtwo.
MK doesn't even sell in Japan anymore.Scorpion- Incredibly popular, not expected in the slightest to the general populace but would be a guarantee to sell due to his huge iconic status
Well Nintendo's confirmed that it's coming out.... so... yeah.We don't need any DLC to be frank
If you ask me, Isaac, Banjo, Dixie, Paper Mario, and Banana Dee have a chance, but Geno was only in one game, so he's possible, but not likely.Who we need is Isaac, Banjo, Dixie, Geno, Paper Mario, and Banana Dee. Who we will get are a bunch of people no one asked for.
Okay, so you want Crash. I do too. But honestly, I've never played any of his games, so I think it might be the same for other people.I'd like Crash.
I mostly agree, but Phoenix Wright probably doesn't have that much of a chance as a lot of characters have games on the Switch, excluding older Smash characters and Joker.Based on the idea of ‘more left field picks’, I really think we’ll see more picks along the line of Joker, as in characters that are wildly popular but still unexpected. So, based off of this, I think these are good options for the picks:
Phoenix Wright- Has great ties to Nintendo, pretty huge cultural icon, no presence as spirit despite Capcom’s huge input in the game
Scorpion- Incredibly popular, not expected in the slightest to the general populace but would be a guarantee to sell due to his huge iconic status
Crash- Granted he’s somewhat expected in the hardcore community, but in the general, more casual community he’d be a big surprise I’d say and is a huge icon
Sora- I do think a SquEnix rep will be coming, and Sora would be a guaranteed sell due to Kingdom Hearts 3 coming out and he’s likely unexpected outside of our general community here
Thoughts?
Like I've mentioned, most Smash characters are from Switch games or older Smash games, but I know that a LOT of people want Rayman, so he's possible!R A Y M A N
Just a hint for the future because you're new, there's no double posting allowed. You might get warned for it, so edit your posts instead.Like I've mentioned, most Smash characters are from Switch games or older Smash games, but I know that a LOT of people want Rayman, so he's possible!
What stages?Stage DLC.
Fun stages like Mario Maker.What stages?
If you truly feel that way you have no idea how jealous I am of youWe don't need any DLC to be frank
Got 76 characters and 100 stages, improved conpetitve gameplay and mechanics, and plenty of local and online multiplayer options.If you truly feel that way you have no idea how jealous I am of you
And yet we are still missing so many characters people have asked for, for years. It's got too many holes in the roster for me to call this game "good for years"Got 76 characters and 100 stages, improved conpetitve gameplay and mechanics, and plenty of local and online multiplayer options.
We good for years!
If that's the case then we'll need DLC till we reach 200 characters. Not everyone can, will, or should be included.And yet we are still missing so many characters people have asked for, for years. It's got too many holes in the roster for me to call this game "good for years"
You're right not everyone should be included but there are characters that should have already been here and that's something that could be easily fixed and yet we get something like Piranha Plant. They had a ballot it shouldn't be that hard to add who we asked for when they literally have a list of them.If that's the case then we'll need DLC till we reach 200 characters.

We're eventually going to have a roster of 81 characters for Ultimate. That's plenty for competitive and casuals alike. The amount of match-ups to learn and characters available to use across the wide variety of modes is perfectly amazing as it is.
I would agree with you, but the Ace Attorneh trilogy is actually coming out on the Switch next year, which could serve as added popularity and could be good timing for Phoenix as dlcI mostly agree, but Phoenix Wright probably doesn't have that much of a chance as a lot of characters have games on the Switch, excluding older Smash characters and Joker.
Really? Then he most likely will be DLCI would agree with you, but the Ace Attorneh trilogy is actually coming out on the Switch next year, which could serve as added popularity and could be good timing for Phoenix as dlc
Another way to view it: we're now at fan request number 67th or so.You're right not everyone should be included but there are characters that would have already been here and that's something that could be easily fixed and yet we get something like Piranha Plant.
That's great and all but some of those characters have been asked for since Brawl's speculation. I'd think if after 10 years of constant requests that give them some indication to add those characters. And yes they would move on to the next character but so? They still have a ballot, they still know who we want. There's no real reason not to add them. Using people will still want more isn't a good defense. Now personally it wouldn't be the most hurtful thing if they didn't have the ballot. Before they had some plausible separation from the fans so it was understandable but why even have the ballot if it's not being used?Another way to view it: we're now at fan request number 67th or so.
You'd be lucky to find another game that goes that deep into fan requests. I think people forget that the vast majority of the veterans were the ones highly requested back in the day. (Obviously the surprise picks, some of the clones --Richter, Ken--- don't apply here)
Once we get the Isaacs, Bandana Dees, Waluigis, and whatnot people want they'll move onto request #77 and claim the roster has holes in them without their presence. It's a never-ending loop. Been following since Brawl and the cycle repeats itself without fail.
If a character isn't in Smash it's not the end of the world. Most of them will exist outside of it. As a package this roster is massive as it is. You'd be called deluded to claim we'd get this amount ten years ago.
You can look back at the official fan polls for Melee and Brawl if you want. The vast majority of newcomers added in those games there came from these polls.That's great and all but some of those characters have been asked for since Brawl's speculation.

Also mighty generous of you claim we have gotten anywhere near 67 demanded characters.
Actually they didn't. That's not to say we didn't get fan requested characters back then but to say a majority came from polls is also not correct.You can look back at the official fan polls for Melee and Brawl if you want.

Yep, funnily enough I didn’t even remember it was a thing until your comment, but because of that he’s definitely one of the most likely third parties; he’s left-field, popular yet unexpected, and could serve as advertisement with his games coming to the switch next year.Really? Then he most likely will be DLC
Professor Layton probably isn't very likely, but Banjo-Kazooie is possible.Most of the characters I really want have been deconfirmed already, but I'm pulling hard for Sora, Phoenix Wright/Professor Layton, Banjo-Kazooie, and Porky.
Is there a list or something of the most widely requested characters?Another way to view it: we're now at fan request number 67th or so.
By "people", you mean yourself. Don't bother denying it.Ive seen tons and tons of supports for these seven characters:
Waluigi, Crash Bandicoot, Dixie Kong, Banjo Kazooie, Isaac (should have been Roys echo over Chrom), Shadow and Geno.
And this is not taken based on this website only, ive seen a huge fanbase in Reddit, Youtube and many more platforms.
The sad part is that, we will propably get really disappointed by the DLC, like in Smash4 when only one character people asked for got into the roster, Mewtwo.
I wish that every DLC atleast came with a new fighter AND an echo. That would increase the hope of seeing peoples favorite characters come into the game.
Four more DLCs now. Its really sad that two of them were wasted on Joker and Piranha Plant rather than characters people asked for.
If Isaac is ever an echo of anyone currently on the roster it would be quite clear Sakurai never played Golden Sun and didn't bother to learn anything about it.Isaac (should have been Roys echo over Chrom)
How would Mario Maker work? I know what the Wii U design looks like, but there's the stage morph feature in Ultimate, so I'm not sure how it would work with that or in a Battlefield form.Fun stages like Mario Maker.
