I guess, but it’s kinda hard to tell, especially with the unintelligible voice filter. You’re right in that I can’t see him being a swap, so it’d either be he’s in or the Metal forms become an item for me.
They’re gonna have a hard act to follow after Tropical Freeze.
Metal items don't work in his case, as I said. He's just a different person now. Or to describe it, a "distinct, cockier personality". For obvious reasons, Gold Mario isn't any better as he's literally the same as Metal Mario, just with a different coat of paint. Which is weird too. He's a proper swap for Metal, at least?
I mean not a lot of characters had Metal forms in Smash yet that’s still an item anyways. It would just be a quick retexture and added weight
Eh, Gold Flower isn't any better. Though if it just makes a Gold coloring, sure. But changing weight is a pretty big change too. The Power-Up Item would at best increase speed, maybe more invincibility frames? Or could give a special item. But think of how many clones are removed from it. You remove barely 2 clones maximum with the Metal item while removing an actual unique person. Is it really worth it in the end for that? Also, more work can be better. You could also give power-up items that aren't palette swaps for others. Think of it like the special item in Double Dash, just applied better.
I don’t know if I’m fully convinced on Metal Mario yet, but I’ll at least add him in my “Undecided” category for my roster.
Well, Gold Flower doesn't work if Metal Mario is turning into Gold Mario via a power-up, but you could do other stuff then.
This'll take a while. Do note I won't cover everything.

some of those seem like a stretch but it seems like an interesting idea to work with despite me not being fully on board yet, maybe I’ll wait to see more ideas.No, he has a hiker variant in Mario Kart Tour
I wanted to keep the consistency of 4 3rd party (as in series other than Mario) characters, one from each series and I see New Leaf Villager being middleweight but I don’t see him replacing any of the others or any others going into lightweight.
I really liked what Double Dash did. Hope they help.
Ah. Add the Biker outfit too, imo. It's an important part of his history.
They aren't going to be both cut either. I get what you're saying, but Isabelle is already no longer being treated as "key" as of the latest game. Tom Nook and Villager are the ones in the spotlight again. If it's going to be one, the player character is far more logical now. Or Tom Nook only. It's kind of sad they dropped her focus, but she's not even being treated as more than an after thought in New Horizons. Which is dumb, imo. She's still a mascot for the series. She's gotten about as much spotlight as Leif and Redd, basically.
I’m personally not a huge fan of DD’s exclusive item system, I’d rather have something more probability based.
...At that point just keep Villager or make AC an exception. Like, the Avatar was added because they're an important character if not the most important to the series. In fact, you could just throw in all 3 as it's a special exception due to vastly no clear best option?
I’ll put back in Villager if you can convince me which of the other middleweights could take the lightweight place instead or give me a different character for lightweight and which middleweight should Villager replace?
Let me relook. I don't think replacing should exist, though.
They are a middleweight, I’d need a different character for lightweight. If they were lightweight, I could just slot them in where Isabelle is
Oh. Okay, well, Middleweight, Lightweight, and Heavyweight don't have the same numbers either. So it's not too hard.
I got it, if I go five instead, then I’ll have Villager in middleweight, add Balloon Fighter in Lightweight, replace Isabelle with Nook and put an Excitebike Racer in Heavy
First vote: Kat (Gravity Rush Series)
And while of course you question why some characters aren't there you just don't care at the same time when you are experiencing one of the greatest gaming moments on the 3DS and then some.
I mean you suggested Rathalos.
I mean, Rathalos is like... the mascot of Monster Hunter. And the only other one I could think of was Ridley, but that kind of goes against the point.
Welcome back to the land of Smashboards~
This, metal Mario I feel earns a separate spot as he is basically the boss metal Mario from smash 64. Which has always been viewed as a separate entity.
Dart, Kat and Nathan Drake would be my choices.

yeah Metal Mario is like a separate entity from Mario, like a mysterious clone or something; he acts cockier than Mario tends to, such as sometimes saying “No surprise!” when winning, and he’ll say some of Mario’s voicelines differently too, like “papa!” instead of “mama!” and saying “Mia mama!”
The only redeeming factor of this dungeon is that is reminds me of some of the most Sonic stages from Sa2.
Yeah, it truly is a great moment in gaming, I wish the song here was put in Smash. It would fit final destination pretty well.
xD It has been ages since the last time I have watched either CinamaSins or Honest Trailers. I won't deny they got laughs here and there out of me, but there was one point where I got bored of both. I think I have been watching a lot more stuff from people like Jeremy Jhans and Chris Stuckmann and they are also pretty funny.
Vote 1: Ratchet and Clank
I mean I can keep Isabelle instead of Nook, you said that she wasn’t as relevant anymore with Horizons.
I didn’t think people cared so much about Metal Mario, also it’s hard to tell what he’s saying through the filters. I’ll keep him as a potential option for now.
I'd prefer all 3, but as much as I like Nook, I'd rather not cut and replace if possible. It's up to you, though.
I think maybe you're misunderstanding us. Not all care if he goes. It's just that he doesn't work as a power-up or costume anymore due to being too different.
