It's one of the reasons I support him so much. He has potential to easily bring a completely new fighting style to this game, as well as being a really cool and cute retro character.

Add me to the supporter list please. I want Smash Brothers to contain many different fighting styles.

WHY HAVE I NOT POSTED HERE YET!!

I want Sukapon the most out of every newcomer. He so deserves it, his game is great, and I would love to see it revived. Smash 4 is the best place to do that.

We need Sukapon and Rayman so that they may have a fight to the death over who has the better looking lack-of-limbs.

Doubt it. I mean, Takamaru is obviously the character with more merits...I don't think we're getting any retro this time around.

I was just joking. I don't really think it'll happen. (Although I want it to.)

Hopefully he at least has a Sukapokon (yellow) color so that it would be close enough to playing as my JMF main.

I still like Sukapon, but I like his evil clone even better.

Isn't it Sukapokon?

You're right, it's been a while since I've seen his name. After all, he was close to being an Expansion Character in SSF2 with a few other Joy Mech Fight characters until the devs decided to kill the Expansion Forums. Too bad we might only see Sukapon as an expansion character for such a game. :crying:

After seeing two relatively obscure retro characters get confirmed as Assist Trophies, Prince Sable even being a Japan-exclusive, I'm feeling fairly confident that Sukapon will appear in the game in some form or another, and even appearing as a measly trophy would be more than enough for me. =)

Sukapon is in my top 6 characters that I want in and he is probably the most deserving since he is from one of Nintendo's first fighting games and his alternate skins would just be of the other 7 robots from the story mode. I also believe Sukapon would bring something interesting to smash bros. being limbless and all. Joy Mech fight deserves to be on the Virtual Console and deserves a remake or sequel or both.

Well, the revival of my Sukapon thread

Too bad the sprite moveset that was in the front is now a bunch of broken images

It was the best done moveset on the site

I'd be interested in seeing Sukapon added as DLC - it would be a nice touch to have the main character of a traditional Nintendo fighting game (I think it might have been the first one that Nintendo made, though I'm not sure if Urban Champion would count) as a playable character in this. Plus, it seems like there's a decent amount of material to work with.

Im in for support of sukapon for dlc


Just a quick question does sukapon go against sakurais statement on no characters that are already on fighting/street fighter games from a interview way back? Or is that for 3rd parties?

Exactly and I wouldn't count Urban Champion or Punch Out!!! Also they could pull a mega man and use moves from the other fights as well and his is very deserving for being the main character from Nintendo's first home console fighting game which held the record for largest roster until i was later broken by Brawl, and he is very classic and retro while being very unique since he is limbless.

I don't think so since he was considered for 64 but was decided that he needed to be in one more game and that was when they were still thinking it was going to be a Japan Only game too.

I am amazed that another Japan-released game is receiving support, and I wonder what happened with the images from one of the movesets? They all seem to be dead links.

I am certain there will be a bigger push to support Sukapon for future Smash Bros Games

I know they are dead, but I can't find if/ where they've been moved. It was the best moveset in this forum though

The original Super Smash Flash 2 Expansion Forums had been dead for nearly 3 years because of lack of progress for character development from the members of community. Ever since, the developers had decided that they'll be the ones doing the work for any DLC character in the future.

As for all of Reiforce's Sukapon sprite animations, they are pretty much in limbo for now since I doubt most of them are still active on his DeviantArt account. Which is a such a shame since his moveset was just how I had envisioned him in Smash.

Edit: I've managed to recover his original sprite sheet from the VG-Resource Forums and they still look fantastic despite not being animated to this day (R.I.P. Expansion Forums).

I an sure that some re-working on the moveset can be done to make it look like the moveset prior to the images taken down

It sounds stupid luckily it never happened because Sukapon is one of the most deserving Nintendo characters to be added to the roster.
