Black Shadow would be a good replacement for Ganondorf, though that's the only reason I support Black Shadow personally.

I actually prefer TP Ganondorf's design, but in general I've liked all versions of Ganondorf. They are all great in their own regards, and I'd personally rather have the TP Ganondorf design back in Smash, but I care much more about him getting revamped. Theres so much potential Ganondorf has that has yet to be applied to him.

I personally think Toon Ganondorf would be the most fun.

Bomberman Hero > Bomberman 64

my opinion is fact
Well, this is the internet after all, all hail our mighty overlord. :p

I'm going to go for the unpopular route and say my favourite Ganondorf is Wind Waker Ganondorf.

I'm weird aren't I?
Not at all. I mean c'mon, that amazing laugh...

...If I had my way, I'd have four Ganon characters:

-OOT/SSBM "Captain Ganon" with luigified moves using dark magic, like choosing to ether release the charged power from Warlock Punch as an electric projectile (Dead Man's Volley), or to let the powerful punch charge fully.

-TP/SSBB Ganondorf with Flame Choke and Beast Ganon Final Smash, and with a unique TP-based moveset involving both dark magic and his sword of the sages.

-Wind Waker Toon Ganondorf using his two swords and having a faster combo based moveset, and having the parry attack from WW as one of his special moves.

-Classic Pig Ganon with attacks involving his trident and fire bats.

Yes....look at my face...I'm absolutely riveted by these past discussions.
Very nice avatar.

So, have we discussed tomorrow's Nintendo Direct?

I mean, getting two characters just days in between each other is really unlikely, but who knows? They may throw a curveball at us.

Regardless, I'm excited to see the new games that are gonna be released soon. Tropical Freeze might get some love, so maybe we'll see that fourth character.

Can we all talk about something new maybe?
The thread's a bit slow, and Ganondorf has been done to death.
How about this...of the three third-party franchises that have been in Smash Bros, which do you think would be the first to get a second rep if it was possible and why?

Let's get serious and talk about absolutes!
Every Pokemon other than Lucario! :troll:

No, but seriously, I think all five Pokemon Veterans have a very good shot of being all in at the same time.

Thank you, Professor Genki is pleased. :p

Anyways, we did discuss it somewhat, but due to it's mainly about Wii U and 3DS games that release before the end of the year, I don't see us getting anything out of it for Smash Bros. However, it is indeed possible it could happen, since I believe Luigi was revealed in a Nintendo Direct that was mainly around the same as this upcoming one.

I'd love to see ANYTHING new from any upcoming Nintendo game during the Direct. Maybe some Yarn Yoshi? We haven't seen anything from Yarn Yoshi in a while. Also, I'd love to see some more Kongs in Tropical Freeze. I'm hoping Funky makes a comeback. (well not a playable Funky. I'm well aware adventuring isn't his thing)

If they are actually going to do anything Smash related. I would actually like to see them showcase Olimar, Luigi, Peach and Toon Link and show them in action in the new games. Maybe even demonstrate what has changed and stayed the same during their transition from Brawl that they probably couldn't properly show in screenshots. Oh they should also show the new stages in action too.

Although I wouldn't mind seeing some more new reveals either.

There's a Nintendo Direct tomorrow? Cool.
Yeah, I really don't see another new Smasher announced tomorrow, especially considering the recent announcement of Toon Link.
But hey, you never know. I am also very interested to see who the 4th DKC:TF character is. Hopefully K. Rool, likely Funky Kong (which I would be perfectly fine with. Watch, in a matter of days, Funky will be on everyone's roster).

It would probably be Sega. They're all buddy-buddy right now, so we could see another Sonic rep (unlikely).

Sega. As many others have said, they're all buddy-buddy with Nintendo. Potential-wise I'm not certain who could get in, but popularity-wise......yeah I have no clue there either. Too many Sonic choices.

Plus a beard. He needs that manly facial hair. Otherwise he's MetroSexual-dorf.

Not permanently...can you clarify what you mean by this please? Just not sure what you're trying to say there.
Falco is not permanently locked in to Super Smash Brothers forever because he appeared twice.

I'm gonna say Sonic. Big surprise.
Tails, Knuckles, Eggman, even Shadow or Amy would fit in quite well really.

Sonic. He is probably the most requested 3rd party character. Everyone (Sonic fans) WANTS a new Sonic rep. So I am sure it would be the first to get a second rep. Mega Man hasn't even been touched by the players yet, so I doubt he would get a second. If I had to pick which Sonic character, it would have to be Tails.

If they are actually going to do anything Smash related. I would actually like to see them showcase Olimar, Luigi, Peach and Toon Link and show them in action in the new games.

Am I the only person who would LOVE to see Yarn Yoshi make it in the game. Maybe that is why they didn't initially reveal Yoshi! I would be so excited for a nice change.

Over Yoshi? No way.
As an additional Yoshi rep? Eh...

They can say Sonic, but can they give a reason that it deserves it more than Metal Gear Solid, which is the reason we even have Third Party characters, or MegaMan, which is much more closely tied to Nintendo than Sonic has ever come close to?
Cause Sonic & Tails Vs. Mario & Luigi in Smash would be considered a selling point with two of the most famous duos of Gaming history ever? :p

Sonic Vs. Mario still makes money. Just look at the sales of the Olympics games. xD

No... just as Yoshi. Yoshi with his yarn design. I don't think they are two different people/dinosaurs. I think they are the same.

Paper Luigi is the same person. Let's replace Luigi for him

Yoshi is a dragon, that's why the coins with his face on them from Super Mario World are called Dragon Coins.
