Just as much as Charizard. Charizard only appeared as a Pokeball Pokemon(a summon) and got in. Waluigi only was a regular and AT(same as Charizard).And what has Waluigi done to be playable?
Karate Joe and Sheriff are both SmashChu. Waddle Dee is all Chrono/Star/SmashChu.I think SmashChu got about half of those characters right. Other half however is totally like your opinion man.
Meh, Waluigi has a character that makes people laugh, sounds good enough reason to let him in if you ask me. I'm not betting on him but still one has to admit he does have his own unique charm. He at least deserves his own spin-off game, preferably a "Wario & Waluigi" RPG, the game would write itself. lol
Please, I don't think Smashchu even likes Waddle Dee. Right now he's my champion (for personal and practical reasons). Until Dragon Quest VII gets released in NA, and then I'll go on my semi-annual "why Dragon Quest is the best fit for Super Smash Bros" routine.
Going off-topic is one thing, flaming is another.
To be fair we ourselves do create a lot of the conflict/derping.
Only once he's thrown out of Dedede's sleeve.
I don't really have a specific character that I'm fanboy-ish towards, or if I did I'm past it now. I just have a MM avi because of the 25th Anniversary and am out of ideas for new one at the moment. I'm perfectly fine with him not getting in and can see it happening. Either way LMAO at this, definitely should go in the Backroom "Who we are" Thread.
Not sure what the qualifications for getting on the list would be, but:
Couldn't resist.
Rhat will have little bearing on their popularity.
Yoshi and Pikachu are playable, and they are more associated with their species.
He fits, just wouldn't be all that spectacular of a character.
Yet Waluigi is an Assist Trophy in Brawl and Toad is playable in two Mario titles.
hahahaha good one
Hey, I can be conservative, too. Here's my list of brand-new, never-before-playable-in-Smash newcomers. Mind you I am only listing Nintendo-owned first-party characters even though I am a supporter of second-party Nintendo characters like Isaac (or Matthew) and Starfy and third-party characters like Mega Man, Pac-Man, Slime, and Simon Belmont.
Oh that's funny. You are trying to justify Waluigi because he's an assist trophy? You have completely disregarded how Waluigi is only an spot-filler for Mario spin-offs, I don't see how him being an Assist Trophy justifies him being a character, if anything that only strengthens the idea that he'll return as an Assist Trophy in this game.
It's NOT Kumatora?
Wait, what?I also still don't see a reason to add new DK characters, especially when they revived the series and that none if those characters make an appearance in it.
It's one I generally prefer not to bring up even less than Krystal due to the sentiments of my top character not fitting in Smash Bros.
Ahh, Tom Nook, right?
Ahh, Tom Nook, right?
Considering we are debating Smash Bros and not Mario Kart, I think his status as an Assist Trophy has more bearing. If his being an Assist Trophy disqualifies him from ever becoming playable, then I guess you can kiss Isaac goodbye too. As a matter of fact, Charizard was a Pokéball in Melee, didn't stop him from becoming playable in Brawl. We've only had Assist Trophies for one game, I don't think any of us stand on much precedence to claim what Sakurai will or will not do. As it stand now, there is no disputing that out of all of the Mario characters, he at least considered him at one point.
Didn't stop R.O.B from being playable when we had the R.O.B Army in Subspace. There are ways you can differentiate things from each other. A bandanna, spear, adjustment in size and color would be pretty obvious.
You're on shaky ground if you are going to use Peach's attack as evidence, considering characters moveset are tweaked every game. It would not be anything for Sakurai to have Peach use Toadsworth. Even still, you're attributing logic to a game built upon bending the norms set within each series.
Maybe because people want the characters?
All Mario games are spin-offs. And for the longest time, Luigi was nothing but filler for a Player 2 that was slowly losing his purpose. He didn't branch out with his own merits until AFTER his Smash debut.
Except that the one particular Waddle Dee is a playable character. It could have been someone else, like Knuckle Joe as a permanent Fighter, given how he had been "brought back" in Brawl, but it was the Bandana Waddle Dee, who is pretty much the Bowser Jr. of Dedede's Army.
The fact you think Toad is part of Peach's moveset because he's unimportant is ridiculous if you ask me. I'm sure it has NOTHING to do with the fact that Peach practically had nothing to use for a moveset given that her main shtick is getting kidnapped.
Due to popularity, which is a big thing for plenty of characters in Smash already.
in case you didn't figure it out). But not before Marth.
I think Peach's move should even be changed to involve Perry Parosol using maybe the Chargebrella or maybe just another deflect type move like it is now
The funny thing is, if Sakurai didn't have his strong personal conviction about Animal Crossing characters not being appropriate for the roster, I'd say that someone like Tom Nook, or Animal Crosser, would be the front runners for the next game. They could easily be to Super Smash Bros what Phoenix Wright is to Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3.
