Smash 4 Speculation Chart [WE UPDATE NOW]

[andimidna]

I vote...
Agitha
Cia
Lana
Zant
Heh. Well, none of them have enough votes to make it anyways, so I'll skip them.

Looks like Ganon and Vaati are the competitors. Makes sense. 2 of the 3 most important Zelda villains, the other being a Smash staple... almost.
Well, I think they both deserve to be on the chart.
I find Ganon much more likely (Vaati is almost impossible imo)
But I like Vaati more. His character, design, and moveset potential... it's more... interesting.

Can I vote for whoever has less votes of the 2? I hope both make it.
And can I vote for the removal of Toon Sheik now that she'd be impossible due to no transformations and the rise of Impa?
Whoops, just realized she's listed as deconfirmed already. Nevermind.

 

[Autumn ♫]

I'm tempted to start a debate on why Vaati still has a good shot after Brawl, but I don't want this to be a Vaati debate thread and I'm too lazy to write something quite that large right now. Darn temptations, stop messing with me...

 

[Iko MattOrr]

I think both Vaati and Ganon should be added, even if it's against the rules. They are both important... Ganon is a lot more important but he is also already half-represented, while Vaati is less iconic but still a recurring boss and he is awesome. I voted for Ganon (in my previous post, this one doesn't count) but if I could, I'd vote for both.

 

[Deleted member]

There are no rules about runner-ups being excluded. Just that you can't vote for 2.
If both Ganon and Vaati continue to receive high numbers of votes that are around the same, they will both be included.

I think Vaati would make a great character has a cool look to him as well.

Are you voting?

@ andimidna
You have to pick one.

Current total:

11 votes Vaati
1 vote Nabooru
2 vote Lana
11 votes Ganon (blue pig edition)
1 vote Ravio
1 vote Toon Ganondorf
3 vote No Additions

....on second thought, I'm going to end it here.
It's clear that Ganon and Vaati are the only serious competitors, and they're dead even at this point.
Both will be included.

Up next is Metroid.

 

[ihskeyp]

I vote no additions for metroid.

 

[Opossum]

I, too, vote No additions to Metroid. Really, who else is there?

 

[Flaming Dragon Wang]

No additions. It's a barren wasteland.

 

[Deleted member]

I vote no addition. Outside of Ridley, I don't see anyone else as a contender.

 

[Scamper52596]

I'll go No Additions as well then. We're all pretty sure that if the Metroid franchise gets another representative, Ridley is the next in line.

 

[Ghirahilda]

No addition for metroid this time (but I like MB/ Madelaine so much)

 

[smashingDoug]

Rundas because he looks cool and we need something other then No Additions or Ridley

 

[Deleted member]

Interesting turn of events; looks like Prince of Sable is going to be redded out.
Might as well red out Richard as well. I forget why we had him in the first place....

1 vote Rundas
6 votes No Additions

 

[FalKoopa]

I'll vote No additions as well.

And we should be seeing lots of green and red spaces on the chart in coming days, if the trend continues.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

No additions.

Japan seems oddly determined to forget the Prime series so I doubt the Hunters from Hunters or Prime 3 would be playable.

 

[fogbadge]

im so tempted to vote for little birdie, but ill resist and vote for no additions

 

[Curious Villager]

No additions as well here.

 

[TORNADO BUS DRIVER]

Was gonna vote Sylux, but for reasons, shall change my vote to no additions.

 

[AEMehr]

No additions are necessary.

Any objections, lady?

 

[LIQUID12A]

As insane a stretch as it is, I vote Sylux for newcomer. At this point I'm extremely doubtful that Ridley will even be playable(and was always fine with him as a boss), so next to Rundas, Sylux is clearly the better choice for a newcomer.

*raises hate shield*

 

[Iko MattOrr]

I vote for Sylux, even if he's not that necessary.

 

[BaganSmashBros]

If Ridley is still allowed (he is still not deconfirmed, unlike Prince Saber, Dark Samus, Takamaru, etc), then Ridley of course. If no, then no addition.
Just because compared to him, everyone who can be playable who also is not called Samus or Dark Samus is worthless/unimportant, including Adam, Anthony and Sylux.
EDIT: oh, please, specify rules on the 1st post - it is pretty confusing unless you were reading all of the previous posts until you will reach right one.

 

[SmilingMad]

I'll have what Bagan ordered.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Voting Ridley, as I not only is he my #2 most wanted, but because of all the controversy

 

[Skyblade12]

Voting Ridley as well.

 

[Zem-raj]

Voting Ridley, because the other contenders are either awkward to implement and/or are already 100% confirmed/rumoured for non-playable statuses (Mother Brain, Dark Samus, Kraid (rumoured Smash Run boss)), are one-shot unimportant characters that do very little for the canon in the series (hunters), or would be generic and have limited movesets (Anthony Higgs, Adam Malkovich).

Ridley is already in the charts, guys...

 

[Skyblade12]

Ridley is already in the charts, guys...

Well, I couldn't find an explanation of the rules, so I erred on the side of caution.

 

[The Light Music Club]

Voting no additions

 

[Zem-raj]

Ridley is already in the charts, guys...

Oh... I must have mis-read it.

I guess I'll go with "no additions" then. The chart with those 6 is fine enough.

 

[Deleted member]

Ridley's already on the chart, people. Don't vote for him.

1 vote Rundas
2 votes Sylux
10 votes No Additions (Bagan said that if Ridley wasn't an option, then he votes for this option, and SmilingMad copied his vote)

I'm considering taking a half day on Metroid due to all the sheer votes for No Additions....

 

[Guybrush20X6]

May as well, Yoshi looks like a half day affair too.

 

[God Robert's Cousin]

No additions. The Hunters are dead, there's zero merit for MB, and our only other characters become unimportant squad members from Other M or those animals that teach you how to walljump and shinespark. Metroid quite literally has nothing beyond the 6 we listed.

Let's just bring this to a half-day.

 

[Deleted member]

Alright, then we'll take Metroid to a close. No Additions it is.

.....but wait, remember when I said this?

Also, there will be two additions that I will keep undisclosed until their charts are up. You may or may not agree with them, but TOO BAD WALUIGI TIME! I have my reasons.

Well, one of those two is from the Metroid series, so there will be at least that addition. Those who know me well enough will know who it is.
The rest of you, however....will just have to wait and see.

So next is Yoshi.
There is only one character I think would be getting votes if anyone:

 

[andimidna]

I bet Baby Bowser will get the most votes too, but no thanks.

My vote is for Stork no additions

 

[Deleted member]

Damn, I forgot about the Stork. Now there's going to be a rain of people voting for the Stork....

1 vote No Additions

 

[The Light Music Club]

Are "Baby Bros." a viable option to vote for? I feel like they have a better chance together compared to them being on there own.

 

[TerminalMontage]

1 vote for Bandit!

 

[Opossum]

I vote no additions. If the Stork is the best option, Yoshi doesn't need anyone else.

 

[Iko MattOrr]

I vote for no additions. The Yoshi series hasn't many interesting characters. Baby Bowser would be a lighter and faster Bowser, the same as Toon Link to Link... but I dont want clones. Baby Mario and Luigi are already in, the option of having both of them as a single character is interesting as well (Mario & Luigi Partners in Time like)...
but I prefer voting for no additions.

 

[Deleted member]

No team pairings unless there's no other option.
i.e. Baby Mario could very well be alone. Baby Luigi can't, but he's on the chart in the case that he and Baby Mario are in fact paired up.

1 vote Bandit (who?)
3 votes No Additions
