Vintage Creep
Smash Master
You're in charge of making a new eShop game in the same exact vein of Super Smash Bros. You have a 12-characters limit, but you can pick them from virtually any franchise you want (the more famous they are, the better it is though). You have another restriction: you CAN'T use the most famous characters from that particular franchise.
You want to use a Super Mario character? Well, Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Bowser, and basically any other popular character from the franchise is out of the question. This can be subjective, but generally speaking, if a character has appeared in more than two games in the franchise, he's not eligible.
Oh, and you also can choose a max of 16 stages from that franchise. But yeah, they must be obscure locations too!
OH, AND EVERY STAGE AND CHARACTER MUST BE FROM A DIFFERENT FRANCHISE OR SUBFRANCHISE.
Let's see what you can do.
My roster:
1) From Super Mario, Il Piantissimo.
Il Piantissimo is fast, pretty strong but also little and easy to knock out. He can use Bowser Jr.'s paintbrush which he stole at the end of Super Mario Sunshine. His stronger attacks are the ones he makes after running for a bit, and generally he has a gimmick which makes him stronger the more he moves. He also launches fruits as normal attacks.
2) From F-Zero, Gomar & Shioh.
They are the Ice Climbers of this game. They fight dancing. Really hard to control, they're goofy and not particularly strong, but great for mind games. You control the tall one, when the short one is basically Nana.
3) From Resident Evil, The Merchant.
What are you buyin'? The Merchant can use every weapon he's hiding under is coat, making him a long-range fighter. Colt, Magnum, bazookas and knives are part of his moveset. He can even summon zombies (the Resi 4 iteration obviously) which help him against the opponents. He can plant mines and use Plagas as he wants.
4) From Pokémon, Old Man.
He's a summon character. Extremely weak and easy to knock out, he must rely on the Pokémons he summons to defend himself. These include creatures like Weedle (which poisons the opponent), Pidgey (which creates tornados with his wings and helps him recover), Metapod (which he can throw like a rock) or Magikarp (which does absolutely nothing). He also uses items from the franchise like potions and repellents.
5) From Sonic, Mighty The Armadillo.
This forgotten Sonic clone works similarly to Sonic. There is not much else to add.
6) From The Legend Of Zelda, Sparrot.
This little magician shows off new powers from the ones he had in Skyward Sword. He can teleport from a distance, erupt flames from the ground and thunders from the sky. He's actually pretty powerful, but since he floats in the air, very easy to throw away.
7) From StarFox, Queen Cloudrunner.
Since this character has wings, she can jump more than any other in the roster and has the glide ability. She can come back to the stage from almost everywhere. She's extremely goofy to the ground, with weak and slow attacks, but when in the air, she's the queen. She can also make aerial grabs which can be deadly.
8) From Kirby, HR-H.
It's a robot. This means he can shoot lasers, missiles and other projectiles. He's also the only characters in the roster which is a transformation character. Its second form is faster and stronger, but also unreliable and it's easy to kill yourself.
9) From Donkey Kong, Manky Kong.
Manky Kong is a dirty, stupid monkey which plays exactly like a monkey. He can throw poop like a projectile, but is more of a phisical character.
10) From EarthBound, Frank Fly.
He's a "sword" character, and uses his knives with grace. He can be compared to Marth.
11) From Pikmin, Olimar's Daughter.
No, she can't use Pikmins. She fights with girly toys and that's all.
12) From Banjo-Kazooie, Mildred The Ice Cube.
She has no limbs at all, making it really hard to predict her moves. She slides across the stage and can breathe ice to freeze opponents. While time passes by, she becomes more little because of melting. She's pretty heavy though.
