Cuz I'm the goddamn Batman.
1. I say Yoshimitsu because he's not only a Tekken character, but also a Soul character. Simple as that, two franchises at once. And by my personal experience I found that he's much more recognized than Jin and Kazuya. Maybe not more than Heihachi, but he's really famous and loved. And also he's cool, the most important thing.
"He" is not a Soul character. You are thinking of the two characters that took up the mantle and sword before Tekken Yoshi's time.
Even if he WAS the same Yoshimitsu, it doesn't make a difference. All Yoshimitsu have been minor characters in both series. It's not like Ryu Hayabusa, who is the main character of Ninja Gaiden as well as a major protagonist in Dead or Alive.
2. Wheeler is in a weird situation. He was created for an anime, and then was added in the videogame. Lucario was not created for the anime. That's what I'm talking about. He has zero chance again though.
You don't know that he was specifically created for the anime and THEN added in a video game. The first episode and the first game were a little more than one month apart, so it could have just been that the anime was made to introduce the new alternate canon seperate from the older games in the series that the newer game had or that the came was meant to come first but was delayed for whatever reason.
4. Seriously? What does it even mean? Show me a picture of Kratos standing beside Bowser. You can't, so you can't really say it would suck right? C'mon, use your imagination.
And that's not the point, AGAIN. I said that Buzz makes zero sense because he's a movie character, like Ralph. The fact that they fit well with the rest isn't important.
Did I say it would suck? No. Don't put words in my mouth.
However, you're tlaking Kratos, a
Playstation character known for excess blood, gore, brutality, and sexuality, being in
Nintendo's Smash Bros., where the even the darkest character in the game, Ganondorf, looks mild in comparison. That's right, if you make
Ganondorf look mild, you definitely don't belong. This is why Kratos fits in so well with Mortal Kombat. As for why Kratos "fits" with the rest of the cast of Playstation All-Stars? Unlike Smash, the characters are just a clusterEFF of styles that don't mesh together that border on extreme opposites from the likes of Sackboy and Fat Princess to Kratos and Sweet Tooth.
5. No I'm italian, and the problem is that you take your chart way too seriously. I didn't demanded some characters to be removed, I was stating an opinion. Maybe in an harsh way, who cares. Oh right, you. Well sorry, OK? You can add whoever you want to that chart really, I swear I won't ask you to take them out... God.
Saying I should "seriously remove" them is pretty much the same as a demand.
Exactly, don't take Sakurai's words as gospel. Still though, understand common sense. Ralph in Smash isn't common sense. Wheeler... Gosh are we really going to talk about such an irrelevant character? Ok he would fit the criteria... Somehow. Good for him.
Oh, so he's "irrelevant" now? By that very same logic, so are Goroh and Black Shadow, so they should not be discussed either.
The last games they have been in for their series was in 2004, same as Wheeler.
As for "common sense", I'm pretty sure you have no idea what that is. It most certainly isn't defined by opinion (I say Ralph fits due to being a psuedo-game character that blends well, you say he doesn't because of his movie status. Neither of us are right, so neither side is "common sense".).
Common sense for Smash would be pretty much that characters that have never been on a Nintendo system have no place in Nintendo's fighter. That's something everyone can agree on.
And your point on "not taking Sakurai's words as gospel" doesn't really make sense. What he said was what he said. You were just incorrect in what he said.
