Bowser doesn't appear in every game, and neither does Wario. And it's a GIGANTIC series. Does that mean we get Count Bleck?Because zelda is such a huge series and ganondorf does not appear in every game
Bowser does appear in nearly every game, all but mario 2 i believe.Bowser doesn't appear in every game, and neither does Wario. And it's a GIGANTIC series. Does that mean we get Count Bleck?
Seriously though. Ganondorf is perfectly fine, being the staple force of evil in the Zelda series in Gerudo form. We don't actually need huge amounts of antagonists in series that already have them just so we can cover their full series history. It's kind of unnecessary.
So Bowser doesn't appear in a Mario game. There you go.Bowser does appear in nearly every game, all but mario 2 i believe.
Wario represents his own series, and wario appears in every wario game
Should the bolded be added along with all Nintendo veterans from Brawl, I will ask for no more in regards to characters.I mean why not? We have some good choices. K. Rool, Mewtwo (arguably), Ridley, Black Shadow, Samurai Goroh, Medusa, Captain Syrup, ect.
These should be the villains that appear in the next Smash hopeful as a playable characters:
.n_n.
I've never understodd why people want ***** like Black Shadow in the gam, hes been in fzero which hasn't had a knew game since our Lord and Savior George Bush was in office. Plus nobody outside of smelly neckbeards even know what fzero is.These should be the villains that appear in the next Smash hopeful as a playable characters:

There's one on every forum, isn't there...?I've never understodd why people want ****s like Black Shadow in the gam, hes been in fzero which hasn't had a knew game since our Lord and Savior George Bush was in office. Plus nobody outside of smelly neckbeards even know what fzero is.
That werid mither****er from Earthbound is an even worse choice, and Ridley is just plain reterdad
I think it has to do with most people preferring characters they actually played as in their games.Villains certainly seem to have gotten the shorter end of the stick in Smash. Strictly speaking, we have only have three: Bowser, Ganondorf and Wolf. Wario is an anti-hero at best and Dedede has pretty much gone from villain to anti-villain to anti-hero to hero. He doesn't do anything evil nowadays, unless he's possessed.
Then there's the fact that Ganondorf is a clone. His Smash incarnation doesn't represent the character well. And we've heard from Sakurai that originally he wasn't planned to be in Melee at all. He got lucky because he had a body type similar to Falcon, and they were looking for suitable clones. Wolf was likely low-priority in Brawl and added at the last minute due to the fact that he doesn't appear in SSE. So really, Bowser is the only villain in Smash that was high-priority and planned to appear from the start. In Smash 4 he's even been changed to be more accurate to his portrayal in the Mario games.
Why is Sakurai neglecting villains? Who knows, but it's something I hope will change in Smash 4. There's two insanely popular villains he could add - K. Rool and Ridley - and plenty more possible choices, such as Ganon, Medusa and Black Shadow. Also, Ganondorf needs a complete rehaul and Wolf could use some unique specials or a new FS at the very least.
Wolf actually isn't really a clone... he's far more unique than Fox. Plus Wolf was intended to be in before Falco anyway (although admittedly, he WAS planned to be a clone the first time).I think it has to do with most people preferring characters they actually played as in their games.
Other than Bowser and Wario, villains are usually added because they are last-minute clones (Ganondorf, Wolf) or has Sakurai's bias (Meta Knight, King Dedede).
Wario is really a Villain Protagonist. Wolf I think can really count as a villain because he's more of a villain than anti-hero. Dedede? Yeah, not recently and Meta Knight can hardly be classed as a villain. King K. Rool and Ridley are true villains, though.We need more REAL villains. Meta knight, dede, wolf, and wario are not full villains like bowser and ganondorf. K rool has not been in a game in a but is possible. Ridley I think is the best bet he is a pure villain there is no good in him.
As for mewtwo I feel he will be in DLC cause everyone would buy it,
Wolf I consider more on the villain side and he is a true badass. Lol I was on my phone and didn't feel like typing dedede out, I honestly would not mind zant either.Wario is really a Villain Protagonist. Wolf I think can really count as a villain because he's more of a villain than anti-hero. Dedede? Yeah, not recently and Meta Knight can hardly be classed as a villain. King K. Rool and Ridley are true villains, though.
If we're gonna take in recency into consideration, then even Bowser could be considered an anti-hero, helping out Mario in games such as Super Paper Mario. That would leave Ganondorf as the only, true villain character. With that in mind, plus the fact that Ganondorf hasn't been announced yet, it would seem as though anti-heroes may be considered villains in the character selection process, that is if they actually think about that, just as much as they care about the number of women characters.I thought it had been confirmed that Wolf is not considered a real "Villain". He is a bounty hunter who does jobs for money, who happened to be hired to kill the Star Fox crew. In one instance (maybe more, idk) he even helped out Star Fox in defeating an enemy. If anything, he is more of a rival/anti-hero.
King DDD and Meta Knight are not villains. They just aren't. I can see how people would think DeDeDe is, but in recent games, he has undoubtedly been more of a hero than anything.
Wario, more recently, has been more anti-hero, but I'd count him as a Villain if I had to.
Mewtwo is iffyish, but according to the new movie, iirc, he is considered a hero.
The only two true villains are Ganondorf and Bowser.
Ridley and K. Rool need to be added to balance out the field.
