Ryu's a DLC character. I don't think that people would be happy if they had bought Ryu and then had to buy an alt for him separately. It is more plausible for characters that were already in the game, as you don't have to buy them separately.

You don't have to buy it, simply don't. The alt could be included in a pack or so with other alts. I mean, I would buy it and there's others out there. My main concern though is that my nominations aren't being tallied when I feel that they have no reason not to be.

EDIT: I just saw the notification(I'm on mobile *barfs*)

Thank you for the reply! I don't mean to come across like a jerk, but I put a lot of votes in lol.

We're not getting any more Fire Emblem characters in this game - this a statement I can say with confidence. Being on par with Mario in the number of characters received is no joke, so I think Sakurai wiuld prefer to focus on other franchises.

I'm a Fire Emblem fan, and she's certainly unique, so there's that. But I can wait till the next game, since I'm very much satisfied with the Fire Emblem cast we have right now.​

Geez, FE is already considered overrepped despite not even hitting Pokemon's numbers yet. It's on par with Zelda in terms of number of characters, that's for sure. Even if it weren't, Fates is a little too new for Smash rep, having only been released in Japan.

If we're ACTUALLY getting another FE character, sure, Azura is nice. But I think FE is well repped.

Yeah, yeah, Fire Emblem is overrepresented. As it now has the same number of playable characters as the Zelda series (and the same number of unique fighters), that seems odd, since Zelda is a bit bigger. Also, new game, so little support - remember that Japan thought we were insane for voting the Inklings since the game wasn't even out?
Personally, I'd leave Lucy an alt for Marth and put this one in. She looks really unique and could be interesting.
And such a fanservicey design! Didn't Sakurai want to put in fanservice only from now on?

I think people are stretching the whole 'we can make a moveset for anything' a bit much. One out-of-left-field character in the vanilla game is fine, and that's WFT. After her, I don't think DLC weird characters would sell all that well. Also, not a huge series in the US.
Besides, remember the ****storm after ZSS got heels? What would people do if they added a fashonista? Bonus points if she comes out with some tired cliché like "Oh, you broke my nail!"

Azura/Aqua

Chance: 5%

- Fates has yet to be released in the West. Won't be until Q1/Q2 of next year.
- So far, ballot support may be big in Japan due to the series popularity over there, but minuscule in the rest of the world.
- Can potentially be overshadowed by the next FE game in the next few years by the time Smash 5 enters development.
- Fire Emblem characters being the new Kid Icarus characters in the whole "OVER-REPRESENTED" camp.

Want: 30%

She would be a pretty unique character to have moveset wise and IMHO has a higher chance of getting in over Kamui/Corrin since she's not a lord-esque character, and by this point I wouldn't care who gets in for DLC for as long as they're either a veteran or a new and interesting fighter. If Soccer Rye or whoever's in charge of Smash 5 doesn't just look at the latest FE game for character potential, I can see Azura being a candidate from FE14. If she or Corrin come out in 2016 though, they could be the first characters to promote the latest game (fat chance though). I don't care if the franchise gets "over-repped".

That aside, there are characters I'd want over them, so a 5% and a 30% feels rather generous.

Nominating Pichu x 5

 

[Sid-cada]

Azura

Chance - 1.75% - Maybe some ballot support, but we already have a Fire Emblem Character as DLC, which hurts her at least indirectly from support. Add on Corrin again splitting the fan base on who should get in so to speak, and how much she is supported is going to be brought to question. Add not even being released stateside, and we have a bit of a wait to to see just how long it takes.

Want - 40% - I'd rather wait just a bit, have no connection, and would rather have other fire emblem characters at this point. Could be interesting, though


Style Savvy Character

Chance - 0.05% - Such a character would be more likely on the core roster. An extremely unconventional fighter that has little support, and it would take quite a while to make an interesting move set. WFT and Villigers don't happen overnight, people. Maybe considered for next game, but right now it's even a somewhat niche series.

Want - 30% - I could name 10 more interesting fighters off the top of my head.

[MacDaddyNook]

Azura's Chance: 10%
Ok, so what I can gather is that she's a character from a game that just came out in Japan, and nowhere else in the world, from a series with too many characters already in the game. Yep, doesn't look like she's going to have much demand going for her.

Azura's Want: 1%
If she had a sword, I'd give her a 0% want since I absolutely do not yet another sword-using Fire Emblem character. Because she does us one of the two other weapon classes that seem to be completely forgotten about despite being a big part of the series gameplay, I give her a little bump. With that said, no more Fire Emblem characters please, five is more than enough. If they cut Roy and/or Lucina from Smash Bros 5, then I'd be ok with her inclusion.

----------

Savvy Stylist's Chance: 5%
Another very low-demand character. She may be quirky enough of a concept to interest Sakurai, but since he's now focusing on fan demand instead of his personal interest, things don't look too great for her.

Savvy Stylist's Want: Abstain
Truth be told, it seems the characters I want the least or are not excited about turn out to be the ones I enjoy playing as most. There was no way I'd want Villager or Pac-Man, or even my most-wanted Snake, in the series until I got my hands on them and found them to be incredibly fun. So the same could be turn out to be true for Savvy Stylist. Of course, I have no connection or interest in her series so I still don't really care for the character in the slightest aside from being something odd and unique.

This goes without saying, but KEEP FIRE EMBLEM: FATES SPOILERS AT AN ABSOLUTE MINIMUM.
I'm just saying that because if anyone is interested in the game, please don't bring up any major plot points.

The Directory has been updated.

Azura / Aqua
Chance: 1%
A bit less than Cross and Elma, two characters who also come from a series represented in Smash but come from a game released after Smash 4.
Azura's case is much different. We don't know if Sakurai was even aware of this game's existence while making Smash 4 (but I have a slight feeling that he did...). Now, we already have 5 FE characters thanks to Roy, which is pretty bad considering that people are sick of Fire Emblem representation and it getting as many characters as Zelda.
Now, I can't give a 0% because I can't deny the possibility of Nintendo and IS wanting to use Smash to promote the game. Still, if that's the case, she might have to compete with Kamui / Corrin. Still, I am very doubtful on this possibility.

Want: Abstain
I am pretty hyped for Fates and I have been following news on it (minus the plot related spoilers). However... can I get the game first? Can I see if I like the character enough to support her before I consider her a playable character in Smash?

Savvy Style
Chance and Want: Double Zeroes
For chance, why? It was acknowledged by Sakurai, but a character would be considered more out there than Wii Fit Trainer and probably even be far more offensive thanks to the limited spots for DLC.
For want, no. If she got in, I would feel let down.

I have to admit that, as a DLC, the chances are low. There will obviously be less support for a casual game. Plus, I can bet that many gamers don't want to fight as a stylist. I think that the chances are higher if we talk about Smash 5, though.

Style Savvy Chance:
15%
Style Savvy is shaping up to be one of the bigger franchises Nintendo has ever had recently. The franchise had a surprising total sales of nearly 3.1 million with continuing installments like Trendsetters and New Style Boutique. Sakurai also acknowledges the series in Smash with a trophy and music too. She definitely has the unique characteristics to get in Smash, as there is potential with using fashion as combat. I don't really see her being a ballot character, as her demand is pretty low in general despite her joke appeal. It seems like a franchise that I could see pre-ballot, but there are other franchises Sakurai would probably advertise given most of the established franchises have more notable releases that he could promote.

(FE: Fates, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Rhythm Heaven: The Best Plus)

Would Syn Sophia agree to an idea like this though? Probably yes if asked, since they did develop combat based games before. (WWE games for example) They would be pretty ok with the idea.

If Style Savvy can improve it's popularity within its franchise, then I could see a character happening.

Azura Chance:
20%
Like I mentioned before. FE: Fates definitely seems like a game that could get character representation in Smash DLC. It's already an established franchise, and Fates has gotten way better sales than Awakening so far. She definitely provides the appeal, as she's basically the icon and best represents the game she's in. She definitely has to compete with Corrin, though. Corrin is the main protagonist of his game and he at least has unique characteristics unlike Chrom to get in the game. The real question is whether or not he finds moveset potential to be more with Kamui or Azura. It's dragons versus spear dancers! One of the top candidates for a pre-ballot newcomer IMO.

We may actually be seeing more Fates character support as the months go by too, I'm betting it's going to gain a large fanbase like Awakening, so she could potentially be a ballot character too.

[ShinyRegice]

@ BluePikmin11 isn't your concept supposed to be about an unpopular DLC newcomer or just character as a whole? If it's the later, I guess we could consider Pichu and Young Link among them, if their want score is any indication, but if it's just about "newcomers" then they actually wouldn't count. Just asking. Though I'll help you nominating it either way

Two women involved today, and regardless of who the second one would be, they seem pretty different in personality.

Unlike our last two ladies, though, these two would probably get along.

-♪- (Warning: Music is from Fire Emblem Fates. It's not particularly spoilery, but if you want to go into the games completely blind, steer clear.)

Azura

Chance: 3.5%
One of the stars of Fire Emblem's newest...can we call it a trilogy? Hard to say. A songstress with minor power over water who also wields lances in battle, Azura has a combination of abilities no Fire Emblem character has ever used in Smash. Uniqueness wouldn't be an issue here, and depending on what the overall scope of her powers is, moveset potential might not be either.

And here's where the problems start setting in. Fire Emblem Fates has been crazy successful in Japan...and won't be out anywhere else until early next year. The Smash Ballot closes in October. It'd take an absolute landslide of Japanese support to overturn Azura's lack of presence among the rest of the fanbase that isn't also involved in Fire Emblem. There's also a certain Young Lion getting some of the fans since and tired of Fire Emblem "over-representation". It'd take one hell of a convincing argument to sway people who think your home series "doesn't deserve" another character regardless of circumstances.

The fates aren't kind toward you, Azura. Maybe when Smash 5 rolls around, if another Fire Emblem game and its own cast don't overshadow you by then? Or maybe you'd have a shot as DLC for that game, if you're still well-liked!

Want: Abstain
It doesn't feel right to gauge this one, with how we're waiting at least six months to get Fates over here. Once I have a better grasp of exactly what the extent of her powers is, I'll be able to give a proper rating.


Savvy Stylist

Chance: 1.5%
So this series has actually done reasonably well for itself. Who knew?

A pair of games (three in Japan, actually) based around managing a fashion boutique, the Style Savvy series has become a pretty big deal for fans of that kind of thing. To get a playable character in Smash, though?

That's a stretch, for a number of reasons. For one, while it's been a success overall, Style Savvy is still very much a niche series that, honestly, doesn't appeal to a lot of other people. It'd be a difficult sell to bring in a character from there, especially as an optional one. For two, there seems to be little desire for a Style Savvy character in Smash at all, and if DLC from here on out is going to be mainly about throwing a bone to the fans, this...doesn't seem to factor into that.

Style Savvy will likely end up having to wait just like Azura. I wouldn't count out a character sneaking into Smash 5 as the obligatory "wait, what the hell" newcomer.

Want: Abstain
Yeah, I can't speak for this one at all. >_>

Well, she's got several things going for her: She's a lance user, she can use water, she's the second most important protagonist in FE: Fates, and she's a girl. Her problems? People don't want more FE reps. That, and it's possible that by the time Smash 5 comes out, FE15 will either be out already or will be in development, probably making FE14 irrelevant. It's possible that the hypothetical FE15 may not sell well as FE: Fates, but I guess only time will tell.

Also, she is overshadowed by another lance user: Bandana Waddle Dee. He is a lance user, but at the same time also he's not a FE character. That and his popularity pretty much make Azura moot at the moment.

I challenge anyone who says they can't rate a Style Savvy rep because they haven't played the game or because it isn't "their" type of game to at least try one of the free Style Savvy Trendsetters - Fashion Contest Demo on the 3DS-eShop. :D

I remember when I stumbled onto the Style Savvy Support Thread on this site and first thought "Style Savvy? What a weird choice that has no chance." But after read some of the support for its inclusion into Smash, I was intrigued. Intrigued enough to get the demo, which I loved. Loved enough to buy the game, which I also loved playing. That's also why I went out and bought Shovel Knight, Pushmo, and Cave Story, because people were presenting weird, interesting choices.

Want: 100% - I have a feeling she's going to be the break out star of Fates.

So that's why you were nominating her after all this time. But not to worry, I too even view her as that potential Lucina Killer in the future.

Now for the OBVIOUSLY best character ever, to be rated. Hades from Kid Icarus. Now I know what your thinking, another Kid Icarus character? Yes, but what you don't realize is this ones Hades. Hades is highly loved as a character due to his trollish nature and being down right funny. Here are two clips from him if you guys want to see some of his humor.

This one is about mimicuties which are creatures that appear to be treasure chest but when you get close they stand up with human like legs and kick the crap out of you. They are powerful enemies so it's very unpleasant to come across on. They are in Smash Run as well.

Now on to chances.

Chance: 100%
You'd have to be delusional not to include the greatest character ever. Duh.

Real chance: 9%

He has competition, isn't highly requested, and smash bros already has three Kid Icarus characters albeit one of them is a clone.

Want: Infinity or 100% depending on what is aloud as a viable rating. If he were playable I personally could see him as a mix between Dormammu from MVC3 and Ganondorf.

Loyd Irving: I'm here for Hades. Abstain.

Nominations

DLC color pack x5

And yes, I had this written before it was time to rate.

Lloyd Irving

Chance: 1%

Judging by Namco's Tekken and Sega's Virtua Fighter getting the Mii costume treatment, I doubt the niche Tales franchise will be represented with a full playable character unless one of the series' protagonists in particular skyrockets in ballot support.

Want: Abstain

I know of Lloyd, but not enough to form an opinion on him.

Hades

Chance: 6.66%

Disregarding Sakurai's bias, I don't expect him to be playable.

Want: 70%

Predictions:

Adeleine - 5%

Non-Sakurai Kirby character #3.

All Veterans Return - 10%

*Looks at the Ice Climbers and Snake*

Nomination: Young Link x5
