I really don't see how Super Bomberman R affects his chances in the slightest. The roster was likely decided at the end of 2016 at the latest, way before SBMR even came out. Sakurai doesn't usually alter his project plans that late into development.

Bomberman want: 0% (10-10*)

His moveset doesn't interest me very much. It's just a bunch of bombs. I think a stage inspired by the top-down bomberman levels would be great, though.

I don't really think release date matters that much, just moreso when development on the game started. Assuming that Super Bomberman R's development took more than three or four months, it'd put him in a potentially good spot to catch Sakurai's eye.

If being in development during Smash planning doesn't mean anything, then we wouldn't have Robin or Greninja in Smash 4, and we will not be getting characters like Rex & Pyra, Springman, or Celica in Smash Switch, because they all had games released after "the end of 2016."

We also wouldn't have BotW Link either, because BotW came out after the project plan finished as well.

What will really matter is how well Bomberman did in the ballot for Sakurai to consider the character. That is how Sakurai got Mega Man in the game due to massive fan-requests. Such fan-requests will likely apply to third-party candidates for Smash Switch's roster plan again. Bomberman likely performed very well in votes, but then there is another matter with Konami though. :p

Fire Emblem Awakening was released in 2012 in Japan, early enough to be on Sakurai's radar, while Greninja was a special case where he was shown early concept art by Game Freak/TPC. I doubt we'll ever see a Greninja situation with any third party character.

Oh no, I agree with you. I don't really think we'll be getting one either. Third parties are a lot more work than first party ones.
I just think that the notion of "release dates determine when characters will be getting in or not" is not an apt one, when we've seen it broken in every Smash game except for the original (Roy in Melee, Lucas and Lucario in Brawl, Greninja in Smash 4, etc.)

I feel like people need to remember that Nintendo sees games significantly earlier than we ever do.

Bomberman:

Chance - 1%
Simply cannot see this happening. Konami are an oddball company to deal with and there's more competition internally alone for a spot. They'd favour Snake or someone they originally made like Belmont rather than a character they purchased I think.

Want - 65%
If it weren't for Hudson Soft going under, we'd be asking when not if Bomberman will be in Smash. That's a darn shame.

Love me some Hero and the classics. I haven't played a recent title, but got enough love for the little guy to want him in Smash.

Black Shadow: 8.6%
Think a lot of people will think the majority want him as a mere beacon for Ganondorf's old move set. I cannot stress this is untrue for F-Zero fans.

Concept: Marth/Roy speaking English 11.2%
Certainly possible but them speaking Japanese is pretty much a staple nowadays.

Want: 80%
The idea of using bombs to lay traps to restrict movement as Bomberman has great appeal. Bomberman was one of my most played games as a kid(specifically Atomic Bomberman) so he has a special place in my heart alongside Crash, Spyro, Tails and Rayman. I really wish Hudson hadn't gone under and I may have got my cute bomb ninja in.

Bomberman

Chance: 10%

Hard to say. Bomberman is in one of those complicated positions where he has a good amount going both for and against him. He's a popular and notable character from a franchise that has been around for a long time and has always had a close history with Nintendo consoles. There was also a recent title that started as a Switch exclusive, and he'd also be pretty unique. Wouldn't surprise me if he did well in the ballot either. As for the negatives...well, he's owned by Konami, for starters. No idea if that would work out. And even if it does there's still two other major contenders. Snake, despite being cut, is still a former veteran. And then Simon Belmont shares a lot of Bomberman's pros, minus the recent title but plus Castlevania literally being mentioned by Sakurai himself in that interview linked a couple of pages ago. I feel like either of them could beat him out, and I'm not expecting more than one and not quite expecting that so yeah. I wouldn't rule him out but it would definitely surprise me.

Want: 100%


Honestly I actually want all of the three Konami characters I mentioned for various reasons. Any of them getting in would be very satisfying, and while it will never happen I personally wouldn't complain at all if all three by some miracle got in.

In Bomerman's case a major third party with a long history with Nintendo is a big plus for me, but mainly I've just always really liked the little guy. He'd fit in absolutely perfectly and I'd be very interested to see how his moveset would turn out. Probably my most wanted third party outside of Banjo & Kazooie.

Chance: 25%
Bomberman's been part of gaming's old guard for a very long time since the NES days, but he's still blowing enemies up in new games to this day. With Bomberman being one of the Switch's launch titles, I guess there is grounds that Konami might play nice and want to see another of their characters added to a pachinko machine added to Smash Bros.

Then again, Bomberman's competition lies in some of his fellow Konami stars; especially Snake and Simon Belmont. They might want Snake back because he was a fan favourite back in Brawl, or some new blood for another famous series with Simon.


Want: 50%
Mostly indifferent to Bomberman, but if he gets in, that would be pretty hype.

*looks at top 7* cool, this should be a fun week

Bomberman

Chance: 62% - I think his chances are good, but far from a guarantee. as far as 3rd party characters go, he's pretty easily recognisable, has a history with Nintendo, and has been around a LONG time. he even had a game as a debut title for the Switch. so yeah, I'd say his chances are pretty good.

Want: 80% - I'm not a HUGE Bomberman fan, haven't played many of his games. but I do like him, and really want to pick up R once it goes down in price a little. He seems like he'd be a pretty perfect fit for Smash (and a much better Konami fit than a certain gravelly voiced soldier) he isn't my most wanted 3rd party character, but I'd say he's probably in my top 10 somewhere.

I was wondering. I assume this game ends when Smash 5 releases. If we find out at E3 when the release date is, does that mean there will be a limit to how many new things can be nomintated based on the number of days counting to the release of Smash 5?

well, it IS possible there'd be DLC post-release. so theoretically the game could continue after Smash even releases
but yeah, i'd say as we approach release it'd be a good idea to wind the thread down and limit the amount of new stuff

Bomberman Chance 10%: He's got a long history and is relevant to Nintendo in that history. I think people overestimate his popularity which I don't think he has very much of. I also think people overrate his iconicness, there's a massive gap between him and Megaman. Smash Bros speculation is the only time I hear this character's name come up.

Bomberman Want 8%: He deserves it somewhat so I would not be actively angry at his inclusion or anything, but I just find the character to be really bland. That and I still hate chibis.

Sorry, but until F-Zero actually does something, I can't see the series getting any new characters.

Want: 30%
Not crazy about him or anything, but I wouldn't mind a second F-Zero rep.

Marth/Roy English VAs

Chance: 25%
Maybe? I don't really know. The new VAs for the veterans we got in Smash 4 were just so random. We got new voices for Ness, Lucario, Pit, Fox, and Falco.

It might be possible, but I don't think it's really a priority. If anything, they might record new Japanese voices and use them internationally just because Marth has been stuck with a Japanese voice for so long.

Want: Abstain
Don't particularly care either way.

With Black Shadow, I 100% do not believe it will be happening due to F-Zero’s dormant status as a franchise. Even in the case scenario Sakurai decides on clones, the ones that will be chosen will likely be based on relevance and fan-popularity like Dixie Kong. Due to Black Shadow not having either of these benefits, I cannot see Black Shadow being considered as a clone ever for this Smash.

F-Zero has been dead for over a decade, I seriously can't see him being considered. The only thing he's got going for him is dying fan support.
Personally, I have no love for F-Zero, and I feel that it shouldn't get another character because Captain Falcon just feels more like a Smash character at this point than anything.

Yuri Lowenthall is great as Marth, and while I haven't heard Roy's english voice, him still speaking japanese when every other FE character doesn't would stick out like a sore thumb.

Ganondorf's Moveset Dump Ground

Chance: 5%
Want: 10%

F-Zero is dead. There hasn't been a game since 2004, and that was only in Japan. Not to mention that the series was never that big to start with. Or the fact the Falcon's moveset is completely original. Realistically, F-Zero doesn't need more than a character and a stage or two.

The main reason most people want to see Black Shadow in the game is because Ganondorf is a Falcon clone and they want a repository to dump his current moveset so they can give him is kit from Hyrule Warriors.

I used to be big in that idea, but I've mellowed out a bit as I got used to the Falcondorf moveset. Dorf is probably the only character I'd be okay with a more massive moveset overhaul, but even still I have gotten used to a lot of his moves. As such, I don't need the Shadow anymore. Still can't say I want Falcondorf to be completely the same, but I don't need a 100% different Dorf anymore.

Localized Marth/Roy

Chance: 50%
Want: 65%

Marth (and Roy) have always been Japanese in Smash since the games were Japan-only releases. Marth finally got an English voice with STEAM as a spin-off, and then finally he managed an English voice in the next Fire Emblem game. Smash has changed voices before (some of which need to be changed back like that atrocious Fox claw-off-your-ears voice), so it's not beyond the realm of possibility. Then again, Bowser/DK have had animal noises since inception (which I kind of like...).

Honestly, I never really play Marth (Roy in Sm4sh is cool though) so I couldn't really be bothered one way or the other. Slight preference to localization just to keep them consistent with Ike and Robin.

Black Shadow:

Chance: 2%
I admit it - it's not likely. Black Shadow is a popular character in Japan due to the anime which is essentially his only case for being in, and it's a very minor one. Not sure how he did on the ballot, but I doubt he's anywhere near the top. F-Zero is dormant and needs a new game. Pretty please, cherry on top?

Want: 90%
Love Black Shadow. Anyone that wants to use him as some sort of transplant for Ganondorf's current move set are wrong. While brute force is a part of his character, driving style, and machine, he is much more cunning than a brainless muscle of mass. He has dark magic, he has access to weapons of mass destruction, his machine is beefy and can take hits. I'd like a moveset that bases around his machine's stats and his abilities he shows off in the F-Zero universe.

Marth/Roy speaking English


Chance: 5%
Seems to be a Smash staple to keep them in their mother tongue - possibly a reference to their Japan-exclusive origins? It's possible they get their English voices, but why not do that for Smash 4? Nothing has changed in the last few years to push for this.

Want: Abstain
I don't really care either way. Their Japanese voices at least make sense unlike the weird B-movie props grunts and noises the DK Crew and Bowser produce.

Lycanroc: 34.5%
This will be feisty but people here will be on the Decidueye train till the end of time.

Double zeroes for Black Shadow. Now for the main event.


English Marth/Roy
Chance: 80%
This is purely up to the localization team, not Sakurai, mind you. It's not like DK's gorilla noises existing even in the Japanese version. And given the fact that both Marth and Roy have official English VAs now (Yuri Lowenthal and Ray Chase, respectively), there's no reason this shouldn't happen.

Marth has had more games with an English VA than he's had games in the Smash series. Code Name: S.T.E.A.M., Fates, Heroes, and Warriors all have Lowenthal voicing Marth. Roy has had his English voice since Heroes, where Ray Chase has provided his voice on three different occasions.

Want: 100%
I'll honestly be angry if this isn't fixed, silly as it sounds. "Tradition" be damned, as someone who really cares about Marth as a character, forgoing such an easy fix to bring him more in line with his series' current state would suck. He's a Fire Emblem character, not a Smash character. Give him the same respect as anyone else on the roster.

And Roy too, I guess.

Black Shadow

Chance: 10%
Comes from a dead franchise that has hasn't had a nyu game for nearly 14 years, and only has made a few nyappearances via smash and some other games nya. Nyot sure how popular he is, but there's nyot much supporting the idea of F-Zero coming back nya.

Want: 50%
Never played any F-Zero games, but I'd have nyo objections for nyanother character nya. I mean, look at C. Falcon? Beautiful nya. Maybe he could nyadopt Ganondorfs moveset nya? That way Ganondorf gets a nyu moveset, but the moves will still live on nya. I'd be fine with that nya~


Marth/Roy Speaking English

Chance: 15%
I don't see it happening nya, there's little reason to do it other than making it possible for English speaking players to understand nya. But if that was so important, I think they would've nyalready done it for smash4 nya...

Want: 45%
I'll still play them regardless of what language they are speaking, which is why I think it would be a waste of effort to change something that I'm nyassuming most people wouldn't care nyabout nya.
