a. That's back before Black/White. We have no idea who's among the most popular now.
b. NintendoWorld got the results wrong. It's Mew that was 5th Place in the poll, not Meowth.

Ok heres my fixed roster with Falcon. X_X

I deicded to cut Lucas as I feel that he might end up getting cut. :/

I don't know if this is a realistic roster or a wishlist. I'm assuming realistic. My thoughts:

1) I highly doubt Mario will get 2 reps, let alone 1.
2) No K.Rool makes me sad
3) 4th Star Fox rep is pushing it imo
4) Replacing Snake with Simon is unlikely, not to mention scrapping Sonic as well.

Besides that i'd be fine with it.

 

[Arcadenik]

Sakurai implied that Urban Champion is boring... well, to be honest, his game is boring and the character doesn't really stand out. That's why I don't think Urban Champion is getting in.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Roy didn't do so well in Rate Their Chances...

CURSE YOU GAMEFAQS!!!!!

 

[shinhed-echi]

This is still my current roster. 50+Mii
What are your thoughts?

DAT DLC.
Don't know who Aeron is though, not like it matters. I could NOT ask for more on this roster, seriously. Golden Sun rep, Sin and Punishment rep. Johto Trainer, Little Mac, Mike Jones and freaking Simon Belmont. Dillon is also welcome, and Andy needed to be repped. Pretty nice choices all around. T_T

Aeron is one of the Project Rain Fall guys. (With Shulk and Zael)

Don't you mean Lucas?

Lucas should replace Ness

1. Was the original plan.
2. Lucas is the more recent one.
3. I think his moves are far better.

I know Ness was international, but that's probably not important to Japan. That's probably like a fun fact to them that Mother 2 was released in other countries.

What's wrong with having both Lucas and Ness?

Nothing, just in case cuts are essential.

How could you replace with another Konami rep and NOT choose Bomberman!?!?!?!?

 

[FlareHabanero]

CURSE YOU GAMEFAQS!!!!!

GameFAQs is full ******, what else is new?

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

To be fair, I would totally advocate the inclusion of Bomberman. He's the ****.

However, Snake wasn't included on a company rep basis, so i'm starting to think it wouldn't really be a case of a Konami rep whatsoever, just like Sonic isn't a Sega rep, but a very popular character.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Hey Noah.

I'm curious...

This is my roster. What do you think?

No cuts.
Jr can be swapped for Toad.
K.Rool can be swapped for Dixie.
Roy can be swapped for Chrom.

Anyone else can comment if they want.

inb4NoahcomplainsaboutSSZelda

I like it, I just think that Zelda should have as many characters as Mario and Pokemon

 

[SchAlternate]

Well, everyone else is doing it, so why the hell not [sorry for ****ty quality, did it in a hurry]:

With the exception of Geno, there isn't really any character here that might make my list automatically be rejected (hopefully). Here I've included 19 characters (excluding Roy and Mewtwo). Plus the three confirmed characters, that'd be a total of 22 newcomers. Plus all characters from Brawl (except Snake), Mewtwo and Roy, that'd be a grand total of 58 characters... Holy hot damn. Maybe I did went overboard with this...

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Yeah SS Zelda is just a Zelda pic.

I don't care what she looks like, I just got the first one I saw.

This is basically my roster, besides a Mario rep. Love it.

i like it. my only problem with it is no Pac-Man but thats cause im a big supporter of him myself. but i'd be very happy if this was the roster

I would definitely try to trim it down to around 50, give or take 1 or 2. Any more than that is a pipe dream.

I considered adding Pac-Man because of the leak but....

I'd like to think that part isn't true.

 

[Autumn ♫]

Who would it be though?

I would say either Impa, Tingle, or Vaati, although I'm the most supportive of Vaati.

Vaati would be my prefered choice, but I can't see him happening.

Impa... maybe....

Tingle could work.

 

[LaniusShrike]

As it turns out, there are a lot of Konami characters/franchises that I'm really attached to and would love to see in Smash Bros.

Simon Belmont
Bomberman
Snake
Contra

I personally feel like the only ones with a chance of getting in are Snake again and Simon Belmont, but... whatever we get will be nice, as long as it's something.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Pyramid Head for Konami character.

like i said im pro Pac-Man. i love his games and therefore want him in. but hey if u arent into him i wouldnt force it on ya

I don't dislike him. He just bores me. Which is a problem.

If he got in, so be it. If he isn't, thats fine too.

Alright, it's true 58 is a bit overboard, but... Miracles exist, I'd trim it down to 54-55 at most. :D

Love this roster as well. For some reason none of the pokemon choices feel out of place. Like how you went for broke and added Mach Rider, Lip, Starfy, Saki, Sukapon, and Dillon like you don't give a flying ****. XD

It certainly has a lot of variety, and especially, a lot of unrepresented franchises all around.


As for Konami reps: I obviously prefer Simon first. Bomberman second, and Snake 3rd ir all else fails.

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

I still don't view Snake as a Konami rep. He isn't there to rep a company. He's there to rep a friendship, which is why I don't see him being replaced unless Kojima asks for that to happen, which I doubt as well.

 

[SchAlternate]

Well, got rid of Geno, Shulk and Lucario (just for kicks) making it 55:

Still too many, but bleh.

 

[LaniusShrike]

no love for Frogger

I didn't grow up playing Frogger on any Nintendo systems, while I played the heck out of Contra and Castlevania with a bit of the first Metal Gear game (the sneaking elements were too frustrating for young qdMbp).

But Frogger's cool. Notttt sure I'd say he deserves to be a playable character, but... he's cool.

Because Frogger had some stupid epic adventures! hurr (Not saying the games are bad.....but the ideas for this character were not great)

i honestly didnt even know Frogger had any games other than the original ones till i went into Gamestop recently and saw a 3ds game lol. idk i think Frogger could have potential if they put in the time

 

[LaniusShrike]

... What?! How have I never seen these more recent Frogger games? YouTube, prepare yourself! I must see these games!

This might be a bit premature, but... FROGGER FOR SMASH!!!

 

[shinhed-echi]

Yeah same here. For some reason I have trouble keeping up with 1st/2nd gen videogame characters such as Pacman and Frogger.
I'm surprised of my awareness of the following Pitfall games after the original. :O

 

[8-peacock-8]

I still don't know why Frogger became a creepy/awkward anthropomorphic creature.

At least Pac-Man had concept art of his design with the arms and legs......

 

[3Bismyname]

eh Frogger: The Great Quest is the only one where he was ever really creepy looking imo.

the other ones i think look more or less like an average cartoon frog. he def could have had a decent line of platformers if handled correctly. He's a frog, a platformer seems fairly straight forward in terms of concepts
