That I wholeheartedly agree on. :3Um... okay, you got me. But Krystal still shouldn't be in.
In the US, the anime came first. In Japan, the game did. It's just the order in which we got it over here.I'm pretty sure Pokemon didn't start as a game. Could be wrong, of course.
Yep, uh-huh... WHAT THE **** HAPPENED TO YOUR AVATAR.That I wholeheartedly agree on. :3

Oh wait... that's the Sheikah symbol! Awesome!
...disturbing.
☆ Arceus would be too broken. You can't fight a god because they do anything, and when you damage him, he will automatically heal himself because he's god. =P ☆I want to see Arceus as a boss. It would be so awesome. Just think about it... not to mention it'd be a good way to represent thegodAlpha Pokemon.
Mewtwo was the most powerful Pokemon in existence, and look what happened to him in Melee.☆ Arceus would be too broken. You can't fight a god because they do anything, and when you damage him, he will automatically heal himself because he's god. =P ☆
☆ True, but they made him weak on purpose so others can have a chance. If he was a Pokeball on Brawl, he would pown everyone, lol. But other than that, if they Arceus and Ashunera as the last boss in the next Smash, that would be too much, and Dark Mind would be pushing it. XD ☆Mewtwo was the most powerful Pokemon in existence, and look what happened to him in Melee.
Except you have to be dependant on luck, like with getting Boss/Enemy trophies in Brawl, beating 150cc on Mario Kart Wii or similar things. <_<What's the matter with a challenge? Games lack that nowadays.
Yeah, the announcer put a handicap on mewtwo because he would kill everyone before the announcer said go. The announcer got pisssed at mewtwo because mewtwo killed the announcer too so when mewtwo reverted everything to normal for a challenge the announcer weakened mewtwo. Yep. I'm pretty sure that is how it happened.☆ True, but they made him weak on purpose so others can have a chance. If he was a Pokeball on Brawl, he would pown everyone, lol.

What reminds me... I'm pretty sure Marth only returned from Melee because the Brawl announcer also wanted to say "Marf!"[stuff about announcer]
Well, nothing, but in this kind of game, that would be broken and unfair. I'm not saying that everything should be equalWhat's the matter with a challenge? Games lack that nowadays.
Don't say that! I feel terrible because I can't beat 150cc Special Cup to unlock Daisy for my little sister.Except you have to be dependant on luck, like with getting Boss/Enemy trophies in Brawl, beating 150cc on Mario Kart Wii or similar things. <_<
And Luigi only returned so that the announcer could say his name in a shocked voice.What reminds me... I'm pretty sure Marth only returned from Melee because the Brawl announcer also wanted to say "Marf!"![]()
Waluigi on Wario Bike with Automatic Sliding. ;3Don't say that! I feel terrible because I can't beat 150cc Special Cup to unlock Daisy for my little sister.![]()
yea lol and Gaondorf came back because the announcer likes to say his name in a bad *** way.What reminds me... I'm pretty sure Marth only returned from Melee because the Brawl announcer also wanted to say "Marf!"![]()
Thanks. Yay for Impa.Waluigi on Wario Bike with Automatic Sliding. ;3
So it's not too off topic. Uhm... Impa for SSB4.
^My favorite one so far.The reason Roy wasn't in is because Olimar came with a red Pikmin and the announcer has a phobia of redheads and could only tolerate one. At the exact moment Olimar arrived he was recording for Luigi's selection. Only Weegee.
☆ If he has the moveset from Thousand Year Door, then hell yes, put him in the next Smash. =D ☆On-Topic: Paper Mario for SSB4!
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee a list from somebody who ISN'T an idiot!Wait, what are we talking about. o.o;
Well then here: I'll post my character list hypothesis. Why not? I need some constructive criticism.

Hm... Well, I suppose this counts. Paper Mario really isn't a Mario spin-off series anymore seeing as it has three extremely popular games (though the last one was terrible). He may or may not get in considering that Nintendo may see him as a character that's part of the acutal Mario series, so we may only be seeing Bowser Jr.Paper Mario
Paper Mario
My first actual problem with this list. Mewtwo... well, he's just not getting in anymore. He was in Melee, and was almost completed for Brawl and then cut out. Unless we see a new Pokemon Trainer that has Mewtwo and two other Pokemon... well, he's not getting in AND that Pokemon Trainer is very unlikely.Pokémon

Pokémon Trainer (Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard)
Jigglypuff
Mewtwo
Lucario

I wish. Tingle's games are spin-offs and so he is still a character of the normal Zelda series, so the section you have for Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland doesn't quite fit... Tingle will probably get in instead of Vaati, despite how much I dislike having to say that.The Legend of Zelda

Eh... It's hard to say if Falco's going to get cut or not. Though I personally don't think he is, the only way Star Fox will be getting a new rep is if Falco is cut -- and chances are we will then see Krystal. So, this roster choice is fine... but perhaps consider turning it into a Krysal/FalcoStar Fox
Fox
Krystal
Wolf
Nonononono. Fire Emblem simply isn't important enough to Nintendo to have a non-lord character get a playable slot in Smash Brothers. Chances are, we'll be seeing Marth (first lord), Ike (fans love him for being the first 3-D lord and being incredibly good in his game), and the next FE lord.Fire Emblem

Well... I'm unsure of this one. On the one hand, he's probably the most likely retro-rep after Little Mac. On the other hand, Sakurai said once that he was unsure of how he would fight. So, as of now, Balloon Fighter is a definite maybe.Balloon Fight
Balloon Fighter
Sakurai said that he cannot imagine characters from Animal Crossing fighting, and hence, they did not get a character. They instead got a stage, music, an item, and a whole lotta stuff -- they're probably the most repped series that doesn't have a playable character! So yeah... no Animal Crossers are getting in.Animal Crossing
Tom Nook
Though he's always been popular in Japan, we're just now getting our first American Stafy game in like June. Also, he's a star that has absolutely 0 moveset potential. Do the math.Legend of Stafy
Stafy
We need SamuraiPanda to put up the reasoning as to why the Mii will never be in SSB in the OP. The Mii will never get in because Smash Brothers is a series for Nintendo's most popular characters (and with a few guest characters) to fight against each other. If Mii's would've gotten in, they would have been in Brawl.Wii
Mii
Though I think Sukapon was considered for SSB64, he didn't make the cut. So... well, he's definately not getting in now -- the only thing that might be able to bring him in is his retro-status.Joy Mech Fight
Sukapon
Having a second Sonic character in is one of the sins of SSB4 roster making. I assure you, Sakurai would much rather represent an entirely new third party series than ***** out the Sonic series even more than Sega has on its own.3rd Party
Sonic
Snake
Mega Man
Simon Belmont
Tails
While it's highly unlikely that Mewtwo will get in over Lucario, it is possible. And anyway, yes, one of those two are getting into SSB4, while the 5th gen rep gets added as an additional slot.No Mewtwo replacing Lucario. Mewtwo can be there WITH Lucario, but stop being a jerk to those who like Lucario. It's not like we didn't want him in Brawl. As for Roy. Yes. A thousand to the tenth YES.
How do you know that? Source?I assure you, Sakurai would much rather represent an entirely new third party series than ***** out the Sonic series even more than Sega has on its own.
YOU DARE QUESTION MY LOGIC?How do you know that? Source?
Already you're better than people on GameFAQs for asking for criticism upfront.Wait, what are we talking about. o.o;

Yay for Animal Crossing rep. And I think it should be Animal Crosser. Tom Nook and the crosser have appeared in an equal amount of games, but the crosser is playable. And don't say that the crosser has no settled design. That's what alt costumes are for.Animal Crossing

I'm honored. XDWheeeeeeeeeeeeeee a list from somebody who ISN'T an idiot!
Yeah, I can agree with that. If he does get in he'd be a sort of spiritual successor to Dr. Mario (though not a clone), so it'd be nice to see him. Also, moveset potential. Lots of it.Hm... Well, I suppose this counts. Paper Mario really isn't a Mario spin-off series anymore seeing as it has three extremely popular games (though the last one was terrible). He may or may not get in considering that Nintendo may see him as a character that's part of the acutal Mario series, so we may only be seeing Bowser Jr.
I guess I can see that. But Mewtwo would definitely be nice to see in again, especially as he is both very popular, Pokemon's first real "evil" Pokemon, and there was plenty of fan uproar at his exclusion. And no one bring up Roy, okay? Mewtwo's uproar was much, MUCH higher.My first actual problem with this list. Mewtwo... well, he's just not getting in anymore. He was in Melee, and was almost completed for Brawl and then cut out. Unless we see a new Pokemon Trainer that has Mewtwo and two other Pokemon... well, he's not getting in AND that Pokemon Trainer is very unlikely.
See, I totally would do that. The only problem is that I don't think there will be a 5th Pokemon Generation. *hides from screams of "BLASPHEMY!"*And then there is Darkrai. If we somehow get the next Smash before 5th gen, then yeah, chances are we'll be seeing Darkrai. BUT! Well, there's always been one Pokemon series of games come out before the next Smash brothers did (or in Melee to Brawl, two generations!). So, replace Darkrai with a 5th Gen Rep.
Eh, I guess as it is he'd probably be stuck in Zelda's series. But I heard they were planning a sequel to Rosy Rupeeland, so who knows...I wish. Tingle's games are spin-offs and so he is still a character of the normal Zelda series, so the section you have for Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland doesn't quite fit... Tingle will probably get in instead of Vaati, despite how much I dislike having to say that.
Best logic I've heard all day.Yeah, but Meta Knight needs some buffs. Particularly kill power and replacing that useless neutral special of his. You can't even recover that good with it!![]()
Yeah, adding Krystal instead of Falco was one of the choices I was really hesitant with. If only Falco hadn't been in Brawl, the choice would've been so much easier... XD But yeah, I'll put in Wolf over Falco any day, and Krystal seems popular enough, unique enough, and semi-important enough to get a slot.Eh... It's hard to say if Falco's going to get cut or not. Though I personally don't think he is, the only way Star Fox will be getting a new rep is if Falco is cut -- and chances are we will then see Krystal. So, this roster choice is fine... but perhaps consider turning it into a Krysal/Falco
I've never played the Fire Emblem series, so... this was just a guess. All I know is that I think FE will get a third rep.Nonononono. Fire Emblem simply isn't important enough to Nintendo to have a non-lord character get a playable slot in Smash Brothers. Chances are, we'll be seeing Marth (first lord), Ike (fans love him for being the first 3-D lord and being incredibly good in his game), and the next FE lord.
...I haven't heard of that quote. It seems to me that BF would be a great new retro rep and have a very unique moveset if he was executed right. And the more unique movesets the better, I say.Well... I'm unsure of this one. On the one hand, he's probably the most likely retro-rep after Little Mac. On the other hand, Sakurai said once that he was unsure of how he would fight. So, as of now, Balloon Fighter is a definite maybe.
Sakurai said that he cannot imagine characters from Animal Crossing fighting, and hence, they did not get a character. They instead got a stage, music, an item, and a whole lotta stuff -- they're probably the most repped series that doesn't have a playable character! So yeah... no Animal Crossers are getting in.
I don't know much about Stafy's moveset potential, but I thought he had a fair amount of it. I originally actually had him in before his American release, so... he just seems like he'd be another solid Nintendo series that deserves some representation beyond a really crappy Assist Trophy.Though he's always been popular in Japan, we're just now getting our first American Stafy game in like June. Also, he's a star that has absolutely 0 moveset potential. Do the math.
I dunno... it seems that Miis would both be a nifty addition and even a good way to get more people into Smash if they're marketed right. Buuut... the only way I can really see them in is if the next Nintendo system had Miis in it, too (maybe) or if SSB4 came out ion the Wii (yeah right). So... the chances are limited but if they do show up on the next system I expect to see them in as by then they'd practically be Nintendo's new mascot. -y thing, I guess.We need SamuraiPanda to put up the reasoning as to why the Mii will never be in SSB in the OP. The Mii will never get in because Smash Brothers is a series for Nintendo's most popular characters (and with a few guest characters) to fight against each other. If Mii's would've gotten in, they would have been in Brawl.
Retro status, surprise status, and the simple fact that he was the main character of Nintendo's only traditional fighter game. He practically has a moveset made FOR him, and I think that Sakurai was going to put him in Melee but had trouble with his limbless character model. But yeah... his retro status and Japan-only status pose problems.Though I think Sukapon was considered for SSB64, he didn't make the cut. So... well, he's definately not getting in now -- the only thing that might be able to bring him in is his retro-status.
I gave Konami a second rep, so I figure Sega would go ahead and get one, too. And since (to my knowledge) Sega doesn't really have any other current and notable franchises... Tails it is.Having a second Sonic character in is one of the sins of SSB4 roster making. I assure you, Sakurai would much rather represent an entirely new third party series than ***** out the Sonic series even more than Sega has on its own.
No, there's not. This quote right here is one of my serious pet peeves about this thread...And really, there are many characters that deserve it over Tails.
☆ Fixed for truth. =P ☆Super Sonic needs to be made an assist trophy next Smash.
The problem with Toad is that, while he was really important and whatnot once-upon-a-time, he's not anymore. I'd love to see Toad in... it's just that I can't see it happening based on how he is now.Haha. I am just not a Sonic fan, but I understand he is popular enough to stay. Either way, I just cringe when I see talk of spin-offs like Waluigi and Bowser Jr. getting in and not Toad. That's just awful. lol
YUS!Zelda is good as it is. And Impa > Vaati, amirite Spadefox?![]()
I dunno, I have no trouble changing Warios costume to any color on WiFi. o_oas for the Wario costumes when your on 'wireless' im stuck i can't change i hit Y like a million times doesn't work they put him in his colors with the biker outfit you can't changeso on WIRELESS i said so next game they need to fix that
