The Mario series will get an echo fighter so here’s the job for that:

Job #7: Submit An Echo Fighter For The Mario Series
Submit an echo fighter for any character from the Mario series. Please submit a character and any changes they have. It’s alright if one or two moves are different so explain those changes. If a character already has an echo fighter you can still give them another one.

Also, I know I already extended the music but I’m going to do it again and let everyone submit up to six music track. That’ll be the norm from now on, you can submit four at first and then it will move to six if everyone gets a chance to submit. So, feel free to submit more music if you would like.

Dry Bowser
Because is the only idea I have in mind, Dry Bowser would be lighter than og Bowser (since well, he is meatless) but at the same time losing the super armor advantage of his counterpart.

His neutral special would be just a fireball instead of Bowser's flamethrower-like attack and the Final Smash would still be Giga Bowser but in skeleton form.

Alright, here are the results of the mii costume voting:
Gold Block 8
Cape Mario Riding Yoshi 2
Propeller Suit 5
Captain Toad 0
Malo 9
Mr. L 1
Waluigi
Koopa Troopa 4
Goomba Hat 11
Spiny 0
Magikoopa 0
Hammer Bro 4
Bowser Jr 0
Bob-omb Hat 4
Prince Peasley 8
Satellaview Suit 16
Paratroopa Shell 0
Fury Bowser 3
Dimentio 11

And so our mii costumes will be: Dimentio, Satellaview Suit, Goomba Hat, Mallo, Prince Peasley and Gold Block. Yes I know that’s six, I think I’m going to change the rules so that if there’s a tie one more can potentially be accepted. And plus it’s Mario it more than deserves another mii costume.

Here are the options for Job #8. For this one please vote for your top two most wanted in order, you can only put your own submission in last place.
Infinity Sorcerer Infinity Sorcerer Dry Bowser
Tankman from Newgrounds Tankman from Newgrounds Gooigi
Northsouthmap Northsouthmap Wart
Wario Wario Wario Wario Wario Wario Waluigi

My votes:
1. Wart
2. Dry Bowser

I also wanna ask two questions here: does everyone want to expand the franchises that were added as DLC like persona and banjo kazooie or not? And should we also do additional spirits after all? I’m leaning towards yes for both but I want to know what people think.

I'm totally against echo characters that aren't from the same universe.

I would like it, especially since some of my favs (Persona, Fatal Fury/SNK, Tekken) are DLC content.

Okay, looks like we are going to expand the DLC franchises and do some spirits after all. So, here are the results of the Job #8 voting:
Dry Bowser 13
Gooigi 12
Wart 3
Waluigi 2

So, looks like Dry Bowser will be added as an echo fighter. Here’s the next job, the final one of the mario series:

Job #9: Submit A Spirit From The Mario Series
Submit an additional spirit from the Mario series. Please submit a character or thing that’s the subject of the spirit and the details of the battle. You can submit up to two spirits and they will be added.

Alright, submissions for Mario series spirits are officially over and so is content for the series. Meaning now we’re onto content from the Donkey Kong series:

Job #10: Submit A Stage For The Donkey Kong Series
Submit a stage that originates from the Donkey Kong series. Please submit a location, layout and anything else.

Here’s the poll for if we’re going to give this series an echo fighter or not:

DK stage: Bramble Blast

This stage would have a main platform with a spiky underside; two platforms that are vertically stacked and move horizontally; and one barrel each on the left and right side of the stage you can jump into - the function like the Kongo Jungle 64 barrel, but blast horizontally instead of vertically and move vice versa, so you have to time it right to be sure you won't get brambles to the face. The stage also has two spikey ceilings and Squawks cameos.

Mining Melancholy

Based on the mine levels from DKC2, you play on two long wooden platforms with one way above the other. There is a smaller platform in the distance between these two platforms which make it so that you can jump from one to the other.

I actually think a DKC stage being named after its song would be hella rad. "Fear Factory" rolls off the tongue way better as a fighting game stage than "Oil Drum Alley".
