I was merely sharing my honest opinions on Geno. I was never arguing relevance in regards to Geno. I was arguing importance. Either way, I'll be fine with Geno after K. Rool, Ridley, and Isaac (I would include Banjo but even I have to admit that Geno is an easier inclusion than Banjo).
I still think there's more characters that are more deserving than Geno is, but if Sakurai sees enough support to justify it, then fine.
I mean...did importance really matter for King K rool?
Nintendo: Oh, he was a villain for DKC trilogy? Well, clearly, people don't care for him. Let's throw him out of DKC games for good.
And they did. DKCR and DKCTF didn't even feature K Rool as a villian.
But...he came back.
Sure, Geno was a one off character. But he was also part of your party in SMRPG, and was also part of one of the most popular RPG's on the SNES. But he also suffered the same fate as K Rool. But even worse.
While i respect your opinion, i don't think importance should be valued as hard, as that's the same treatment that K Rool fans got from the rest of the smash crowd.
That's something to keep in mind.
