Honestly a Red Dead rep would have maybe worked since cowbows are seen as a little more fantsical than the setting of GTA, but it's never been on a Nintendo platform.

You know what would be a great surprise character, someoone who didn't debut as a character, maybe someone who debuted in a gaming application like Clippy or a gaming peripheral like the Virtual Boy, I will continue putting Virtual Boy for smash.

Does the character being the Nintendo console count

Here are our submissions for the SPirit Event! Thank you to everyone who submitted content!
Newcomer Submission: Submit a Surprise Character
So we will be diving into submitting a surprise newcomer for Season 3 DLC. As mentioned previously, this submission is more centered on generating both surprise as well as hype. While The Plant was an excellent addition, as we are trying to sell a DLCbundle full of content, we should at least try to put forth a product that is worth people's money. That is why we are going for a character that is a surprise pick that, perhaps, speculation never really did concern and would be sure to turn heads.
I have adjusted our requirements contrary to the previous ones stated:
PLEASE GO HERE TO VOTE
Newcomer Submission: Submit a Surprise Character
I have adjusted our requirements contrary to the previous ones stated:
- The character must be on a Nintendo console OR the character must be from a company that has at least TWO games on a Nintendo console.
- The character must be relatively popular/well-known within the gaming community.
- The degree to how much the gaming community knows show be able to translate to bringing in both excitement, interest, and, more importantly, money. If you think that your chosen character might potentially flop due to a lackof brand recognition, perhaps it would be better to pivot.
- First or third party is permissable.
- No Namco-Bandai
- No Fighting characters
- No crazy sword wielding knights
- No Monster Hunter

Virtual Boy
Franchise: Virtual Boy
Year: 1995
Virtual Boy is a handheld console released by Nintendo in 1995. It was supposed to be revolutionary as it was going to be the first console to use virtual reality. Unfortunately, it flopped, HARD, and is now known as one of the biggest tech flops of all time and is ragged on by both the general gaming public and even Nintendo to this day in games such as Tomodachi Life and Luigi's Mansion 3. However, it has a cult audience due to games like Teleroboxer, VB Wario Land, and Jack Bros having dedicated fanbases and even having a small homebrew scene. Needless to say its iconic for both the right and wrong reasons. These strange factors can warrant itself a Smash inclusion, continuing the line of ROB and Mr. Game and Watch of playable peripherals as Smash characters. Speaking of witch Virtual Boy would mainly use attacks referencing both iconic and (im)famous gaming peripherals like the Power Glove, past Nintendo products like the Ultra Hand, and some of his exclusive titles to give a difficult but effective and addicting moveset. That is why I think Virtual Boy should be given a chance, its weird, wacky, kinda of an underdog, and has its own charm, which is what this job aims for.

ARTORIA PENDRAGON
Artoria Pendragon is a Servant, a Heroic Spirit of a figure from history summoned by a mage for a Holy Grail War, and one of the three heroines of the visual novel video game, Fate/stay night. Ever since her debut in the 2004 PC game, Artoria has been one of the most popular characters in the series.
Why Artoria?
Fate/stay night, surprisingly enough for those who know it better from its anime, got its start as a video game, and is one of the most popular visual novels in the world, on par with the likes of Ace Attorney and Danganronpa.
Though some people on the web would point out its rather...lascivious…first print of the game, it should be noted that later rereleases have been modified to be tamer, removing some overly questionable scenes altogether and even retconning it in its anime adaptations, not to mention the creator of the franchise really didn't want them in the first place. Now there are other characters in the Fate series that are just as popular like Astolfo, Mash Kyrielight, and Jeanne d’Arc Alter, these are either from later games or not even of game origin at all.
How Would She Play?
Well, one idea would be to have Artoria in as her more popular moniker and Servant Class, Saber. In that case, she would be a swordfighter who would be unique in the sense that she possesses one of the most legendary swords in the world, Excalibur, her Noble Phantasm. Furthermore, as a Servant, she possesses Skills, which are innate abilities that can benefit her in battle. In her case, they are:
- Magic Resistance: As it states, it is the protection against the effects of magic.
- Riding: A Skill usually reserved for Rider-class Servants, Saber here actually possesses a decent level of Riding, as knights are described as soldiers proficient at mounted combat.
- Charisma: An innate charm and ability to command armies, usually reserved for leaders like her, as she is actually the King Arthur spoken of in legend.
- Instinct: The ability to practically see attacks coming and calculate the best possible course of action. This could potentially be a counter Special.
- Mana Burst: The ability to expel magical energy to augment her own abilities. This quite obviously can be her Neutral Special.
But I’m going to suggest something completely different: and for that, we’re going to turn to an unlikely source that I’d like to call, Kirby and the Amazing Mirror. In that game, there was an ability called Smash, which quite literally translated Kirby’s Smash moveset into a Copy Ability. Now, notice how I’ve been calling her “Artoria” all this time instead of “Saber”. See where I’m going with this? Yessir, I’m going to take from this and summon Artoria in an entirely new Servant class exclusive to Smash Bros! The imaginatively-named Smasher-class Servant!
How does it work, you ask? Simple: much like how Kirby takes several Copy Abilities and places them into a single mega-Copy in Amazing Mirror, Saber’s moveset, I imagine, would take everything from her different variations and put it into a single Smash Bros moveset. So you’d have a majority of her moveset be from her Saber incarnation, but on the other hand, you’d also have her Lancer counterpart’s Rhongomyniad as an Up Special or her Caster counterpart’s Territory Creation skill as a Down Smash! And believe me, there’s no shortage of variations to parse through, no matter how ridiculous some of them may be!

You all know what red dead redemption is and I think he would be an excellent rep for not only that series but rockstar games in general, which nintendo has a surprisingly deep history with and is a really big company we don’t have represented yet. Plus no one in smash really matches his western aesthetic.
He could use a huge variety of tools and weapons from the games like dynamite and lassos which would set him apart from the other gun users and really all characters. Overall really big character who would be a shock to a lot of people but I’m sure a welcome one.

There could also be something unique to her as well: Excalibur, when she was first summoned in the OG Fate/stay night, was invisible using magic wind. This could benefit scare tactics and mind games that she could exploit with her foes, but she could also reveal it to be Excalibur with a Shield B that buffs her damage.

Hate to be that dude but I really don't think either of these work. Red Dead has never been on Nintendo, which is a part of the rules here, and anyone from Fate isn't even remotely close to being a Joker/Steve/Sephiroth type revealJohn Marston

Spyro the Dragon
Smash remains to have criminally few quadruped fighters, and there's no gaming icon better to represent them than Spyro the Dragon. A mascot of the PS1 era, and eventually the Wii era as well through... less than fantastic means, Spyro's one of gaming's most popular mascots (even if he is particularly popular for a certain niche.) The character could be unique by allowing him to glide, and as a dragon have a special mechanic where he has Smash attacks even in the air. He could have additional jumps, he can breath multiple elements, and his franchise is praised for it's fantastic level design and music, meaning he could bring plenty of incredible stages with him. In initial speculation, he was always overshadowed by his fellow former Sony mascot, but with Crash here, I feel like uniting the duo once again is a long time coming.

So, since someone already submited Altria Artoria, I will go with my other option.
Why Naegi?
I think Naegi would be a better surprising pick since even if Smash (and particullary Infinite) isn't stranger to add characters that are most commonly relationed to Playstation or that have mature themes (in fact, some characters like Joker or Snake are both). I think that after add Monokuma has an assist in the base game most people would think that Danganronpa's chances to be represented with a fighter would end being pretty much dead.
I know a lot of people says that Monokuma would be a better option and I can understand why, the robotic-ish nature of Monokuma makes him more natural to include alongside that in general he is more suited in combat, yet I personally always liked to add the actual students in main place considering that, well, they are your character, but also since they could represent better a mechanic of their games that Monokuma can't do, the trials.
How Would He Play?
Has I said before Naegi's moveset would be mostly based around the trials of the game, the trials are the active part of the game where you need to find the culprit at the same time defend yourself and other innocent people with arguments. This could sound has a boring moveset but the thing is that in Danganronpa you don't just show the evidence or something like that, instead the trials are composed of multiple minigames that you need to complete to win. So you can take inspiration of things like the main mechanic "Nonstop Battle" where you fire Silencer to remove the "White Noise" that other people made during the debate (here could work has a simple projectile), the Truth Bullets that ends the argument after finding the contradiction (here could be something like an enhanced projectile with additional things like critical hit), the infamous Hangman Gambit that sometimes is used has his Smash attacks or you can even grab things from the sequel like Logic Dive, Rebuttal Showdown, Lie Bullets, Psyche Taxi, between others. But if we are adding things from Danganronpa 2 and V3....why not add characters from Danganronpa 2 and V3 has skins?
My choices considering that the game counts with 12 skins would be Kyoko Kirigiri, Hajime Hinata, Nagito Komaeda, Kaede Akamatsu and Shuichi Saihara; the protagonists and their respective deuteragonist/rivals/counterparts/whatever the way you want to refer them, all of them shares very similar heights and body so it wouldn't be weird or out of place having them sharing a same hitbox. Heck you can actually fill all the spaces adding Byakuya Togami, Chiaki Nanami, Komaru Naegi, Toko Fukawa, Kokichi Oma or even ****ing Spoiler-Kun Izuru Kamukura who are all popular characters that also more or less fits this, but yeah I think just the other five works well by their own. Nagito could also be replaced by Chiaki to have a balance between guys and girls btw.
MAKOTO NAEGI
(And company)
Makoto Naegi, the Ultimate Lucky Student is the protagonist of Dangaronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, a visual novel where the most skilled students in their sector are putted into a killing game by a mysterious mastermind to make them feel the true despair.(And company)
Why Naegi?
I think Naegi would be a better surprising pick since even if Smash (and particullary Infinite) isn't stranger to add characters that are most commonly relationed to Playstation or that have mature themes (in fact, some characters like Joker or Snake are both). I think that after add Monokuma has an assist in the base game most people would think that Danganronpa's chances to be represented with a fighter would end being pretty much dead.

Alright. Here’s my very first fighter submission for Infinite…
Red (Angry Birds)
Who?Red (Angry Birds)
———
Red is one of the playable characters from the Angry Birds series of mobile games. He and his group, The Flock, watch over their eggs in the peaceful grasslands of Cobalt Plateaus. The plot typically revolves around the eggs being stolen by the Bad Piggies, a civilization of greedy, nasty green pigs. Very big mistake for these piggies, because if anyone bothers to touch the Flock’s eggs, they will get angry, and stop at NOTHING to get their eggs back. The Angry Birds games involve the player using a slingshot to launch the birds into the Bad Piggies’ fortresses. The player has a limited amount of birds they can use, so they are encouraged to maximize their resources and destroy as much as possible. Angry Birds is a great game for those that want a good puzzle through the game’s many levels. Personally, I loved this game as a kid, and would always play it to kill time and occupy myself. In vouching for Red, I hope that I can encourage the people here to play Angry Birds as well, and hopefully enjoy it as I did.
Does He Meet the Requirements?
———
Why, yes! Angry Birds has recieved various ports on the Nintendo 3DS. Not to mention, the Angry Birds Trilogy, a collection of Angry Birds games was released for the Nintendo Wii. They are well-known and iconic within the gaming community. VERY ICONIC. You could show almost anybody the Angry Birds and they would very likely instantly recognize them, even if not by name. In addition, Angry Birds has also been impactful in the history of video games. The concept of a game that could be played anywhere on phones was mostly obscure during development. When the game was finally released and became a massive success, an entire market of mobile games was spawned. Almost any well-known and beloved Mobile game has credit to give to Angry Birds. Not to mention, the Angry Birds series has a fairly notable community, and it’s a part of a lot of people’s nostalgia, which would be a great recipe for garnering sales.
To cap it all off, the Angry Birds bring an unexpected factor in the fact that mobile games are rarely ever talked about in Smash Bros. Discussion. They generally aren’t considered due to the obscurity that many of them have. It’s because of this and the tastes of most Smash fans that mobile games aren’t discussed. That’s not to mention that we’ve never seen a mobile game get its own dedicated fighter and stage in Smash. However, due to the reasons previously stated, the Angry Birds series in Smash would make for not only a be unexpected, but delightful reveal.
Gameplay Pitch
———
If there’s any playstyle in Smash that feels utterly satisfying, it has to be a rushdown. Utterly decimating your opponent and not giving them a chance to breathe is a thrill to behold, and can make for a fun emphasis on combo potential. Red is an aggressive character, who focuses on destroying anything that gets in the way of his eggs. This type of character is perfect for adopting a rushdown playstyle. Not only that, but with Red’s destructive nature, this could make for a lot of his attacks hitting hard. He’s been able to destroy entire structures with only his own body. Think of how much power you see in a lot of Smash heavyweights. Red could not only being the thrill of a rushdown, but the immense power and satisfaction oof Landry heavy hits on an opponent, making for an extremely fun character.
That is to mention, how would Red attack? He has no limbs and has no special abilities, so what could he do? First and foremost, Red does have a few ways to attack. He can use his beak to peck opponents and use his tail to swipe at them. He could also body slam the opponent and roll into them wil his circular physique. He’s also been shown to pick uponjects without hands, so he can just use that ability for his grabs.

Whike I didn’t make any ruling against franchises from franchises that comes from a Mii costume previously imcluded; im assuming you mean Booker, right? I feel that this can be allowed based on those circumstances.Well, I've tried Bioshock in the past and nobody really seemed into that, and with the Big Daddy Mii Costume IDK if I can even do that again.

Yeah that was the plan. I have a few other ideas bumping around so I'll submit tomorrow morning most likely
NanayaGaming
Smash Journeyman
I was thinking on submit Sunny but I looked that a lot of people hated my idea...so instead I will try to submit a character that could be more of the like of the rest of people.
Okabe Rintaro
The protagonist of Steins Gates, I was between him and Makise Kurisu who is probably the most popular character (and that has kinda a more easier to do moveset due her appearences in the Phantom Breaker series). Yet I kinda feel that Okabe could actually call she and other of his coworkers into his moveset to make him more interesing, not counting the timeshift mechanic that is a must considering that thats what the whole game is about. It would also be interesing play has an adult with this anime aesthetic that in the case of Smash is mostly see only in young guys and girls.

Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard is the main character of the Mass Effect franchise. Mass Effect and Bioware's games in general are some of the most influential Western RPGs helping define the genre.
Commander Shepard would use guns, they also have a wide variety of Biotic and Tech abilities in addition to their weaponry. They can even get up close and personal with their Omni-blade. Who knows maybe the Normandy's crew could even show up. as Mass Effect has a large focus on squad tactics. There is also the morality system which could be incorporated
In terms of Nintendo
EDIT: I just made a whole thing on arthas and then realized he is a crazy swordfighter so I reposted this submission instead..

Bella Goth (The Sims)
The Sims is a huge, influential series. It's a well knwkn "casual" game, which is soemthing that is under representated in Smash. It also has a long history on Nintendo platforms.
The stage potential is off the charts. A stage based around the Sims could be amazing. We could even do soemthing from Simcity. In terms of other content you could have someone like Death as an assist trophy and there is so much potential for Smashspace content. We could even include content from the popular Mysims spin off series. We could also do Mii costumes from other EA games such as Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Dead Space, Mirror's Edge and Apex Legends.
Why Bella? I figured it would be more interesting to do a named character rather than calling them "The Sims." All of her Alts would be other Sims from across the series. Bella has been in every main numbered game. Another female character in the pass also doesn't hurt.
Bella / Sim would be an unorthodox fighter, she would spawn house hold objects for her attacks and could preform varoius actions from her home game.

Personally I actually think that a Sims stage would be perfect, but a character seems kinda weird.

I can understand why you think that. It's definitely not a usual pick. But that's why I went for it. If animal crossing can work. Plus the Sims is a pretty silly series.

Jonesy - Fortnite
Weird how we have various fortnite characters represented (Ryu, Chun-Li, Pac-Man, Jill Valentine, Master Chief or Kratos) but we don't have the guy from Fortnite.
Fortnite is one of the most played games on Switch so he fits in, at this point of the DLC I think a fortnite character will be quite unexpected considering the treatment other shooter characters got (Master Chief costume, I still regret it).
Overall he is quite a good character idea.

A surprise fighter/character, huh? This one seems to not be brought up in newcomer discussion that often or much compared to others, so it's a re-submitting time with new info (minorly; the original one is there, not quoting for reasons).

Guybrush Threepwood is the main protagonist of the point-and-click graphic adventure video game series Monkey Island, created by Ron Gilbert and published by Lucasfilm Games (a video game subsidiary of Lucasfilm Ltd., known for Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies), first debuting in the computer game released in October 15th, 1990, The Secret of Monkey Island, in which he started as a young naive man who dreams of becoming a self-proclaimed, swashbuckling "Mighty Pirate" after washing ashore to Melee IslandTM, exploring a few islands while solving various puzzles to succeed in the three trials given to him by pirate leaders and trying to stop the evil undead captain LeChuck from abducting Méléé IslandTM's governor and his future love interest (& wife as of Curse's ending), Elaine Marley.
The series is critically-acclaimed, with the original game (Secret of Monkey Island) itself being still declared one of the greatest adventure games of all time, all thanks to it's witty comedic humor (especially quotes), memorable characters/puzzles (like insult swordfighting) and a fantastic soundtrack, which all entirely defined the genre itself and left such a lasting impact that it's influence has spread throughout the industry, even having been exhibited in the Smithsonian American Art Museum (alongside Pac-Man and Super Mario Bros.). It was referenced in multiple games such as Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (a Jedi mind trick), Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, The Witcher 3 and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, even getting a easter egg in Sea of Thieves (complete with a iconic theme song) through the Pirates of the Caribbean expansion, which speaking of, a cancelled movie adaptation's script was apparently re-used for it's first film, The Curse of the Black Pearl.
The first game has achieved a few sequels over the years like Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (1991), The Curse of Monkey Island (1997), Escape from Monkey Island (2000) and Tales of Monkey Island (2009; by Telltale Games which was founded by former LucasArts employees), with a recently-announced, latest installment alongside the original development crew such as Ron Gilbert himself and Dave Grossman joining in, Return to Monkey Island. Remakes of the first two games (titled "Special Editions") with updated hand-drawn visuals and voice acting were also released on PlayStation 3 (currently backwards compatible for PlayStation 4 and 5 via PlayStation Plus Premium), Xbox 360 (also backwards compatible for Xbox One and Series X/S), Microsoft Windows and iPhone in 2009 & 2010 respectively.
As I just said above, Monkey Island is one of the most famous and important video games in the adventure history, and yet, we don't have a point-and-click genre represented in Smash as of now. And with some current relevance from recent years this decade, such as an aforementioned easter egg in a Pirates of the Caribbean DLC from Sea of Thieves, the whole series was released on Steam (with Tales returning to it and GOG.com from being de-listed) and Limited Run Games' physical anthology collection boxset, Curse and Escape were part of Amazon Prime's free game line-ups in May & June respectively, and finally, Return to Monkey Island itself releasing for Nintendo Switch and Steam in following months this year, which is a VERY BIG deal.
While it may seem that the series doesn't have much appearances in Nintendo consoles despite what I wrote down in the start of this post, but the first two games (and potentially Return) did make it in Japan, and Nintendo & Lucasfilm Games (which is famous for its point-and-click adventure games, many of which rank among the best games of all time, with Monkey Island itself being a crowning jewel) had a long history of partnership with their games having been released those such as Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Maniac Mansion (which started it all) and Zombies Ate My Neighbors, which were all on NES, Game Boy, Super NES, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, etc. Even Grim Fandango's remastered version and a creator Ron Gilbert's Thimbleweed Park were both in Nintendo Switch, as well.
Which speaking of, other LucasArts/Lucasfilm Games IPs can also be represented as additional music (unlikely), Mii Costumes and Spirits (potentially a event instead), such as Maniac Mansion/Day of the Tentacle, Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, Loom, Full Throttle and Grim Fandango themselves.
To reference the genre itself, one taunt may have a point-and-click cursor appear over the opponent close to Guybrush with the words "Look at (fighter)" in the classic LucasArts font, and he will make a short, funny comment about them, regardless of the stage, unlike Snake's Codec and Palutena's Guidance.
Monkey Island has many options/possibilities for additional content to include here in Super Smash Bros. Infinite, as explained in this list:
Guybrush may seem like he'll be an another swordfighter, but actually, he doesn't need to entirely focus on using a sword itself for his playstyle/moveset as explained below, except for a small amount of attacks, especially a unique counter special based on the iconic insult swordfighting puzzle, which leaves the opponent open for an attack by either paralyzing, tripping or turning them around as if they're fleeing while exclaiming a short version of random classic insults such as "Dairy farmer!", though full quotes are used for one of his taunts, and there's even a chance he will whiff and say either "I'm shaking! I'm shaking!" or "I am rubber, you are glue." during that.
Like Steve and Villager, Guybrush can make good use of his sharp wit by being able to utilize random everyday items that he gathered for his inventory throughout the series in battle, like a rubber chicken, red herring, wet towel, a banjo while performing the rockstar slide, the Idol of Many Hands, anchors, bottles, a extendable banana picker (as a long-range/tether grab), a paralyzed Jojo the Monkey, etc.
Guybrush also has a unique grab, in which he picks up the opponent and puts them into his coat/pocket (depending on a costume), before flinging them out in a chosen direction to reference how he picks up items in the games, which potentially works similarly to Ratchet and Clank's Suck Cannon in PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and this project, but close-ranged like Donkey Kong's cargo toss, Kirby's Inhale and Villager's Pocket. This also applies to items (except heavier/carriable ones like boxes and Party Balls) themselves, unless used or thrown.
Some other elements from the series can be incorporated like slapstick (tripping over for a dash attack), Monkey Kombat martial arts in Escape from Monkey Island, a roller-coaster cart from The Curse of Monkey Island (working similarly to Steve's minecart), the Flying Brothers' cannon that launches himself into the air in an angled direction with the kitchen pot used as a helmet, which he later used to get to Monkey Island, and spitting up globs that can be charged for a stronger, faster and further-reaching projectile by drinking from a liquid hidden in his coat/shirt, like in the spitting contest from LeChuck's Revenge. Maybe Guybrush would have the longest time swimming before finally drowning out to reference him being able to breath underwater in ten minutes?
For his Final Smash, Guybrush will use two items he used to kill LeChuck himself in The Secret of Monkey Island and it's sequel, LeChuck's Revenge respectively: root beer and a voodoo doll. He will start by using root beer to spray out an opponent in-front of him. If one is hit, a cinematic will start in Big Whoop's basement, where Guybrush pulls out a voodoo doll that looks identical to an opponent which makes them float helplessly and then stabs it with a syringe that transfers damage to them, before slamming them down and then launches them back into the stage.
As shown above, while Guybrush wears his outfit from LeChuck's Revenge, Tales and Return in default, he also has other outfits from fellow installments such as Secret, Curse and Escape (despite retaining a ponytail and beard), alongside palettes to reference characters like LeChuck, Elaine, Voodoo Lady, Herman Toothrot and few others. Maybe even include unusual costumes like being covered in feathers (Curse) and a pink dress (LeChuck's Revenge)?

Why Does This Series Deserve To Be In and What It Would Bring Up?
As I just said above, Monkey Island is one of the most famous and important video games in the adventure history, and yet, we don't have a point-and-click genre represented in Smash as of now. And with some current relevance from recent years this decade, such as an aforementioned easter egg in a Pirates of the Caribbean DLC from Sea of Thieves, the whole series was released on Steam (with Tales returning to it and GOG.com from being de-listed) and Limited Run Games' physical anthology collection boxset, Curse and Escape were part of Amazon Prime's free game line-ups in May & June respectively, and finally, Return to Monkey Island itself releasing for Nintendo Switch and Steam in following months this year, which is a VERY BIG deal.

Monkey Island has many options/possibilities for additional content to include here in Super Smash Bros. Infinite, as explained in this list:
- Many memorable locations (like Melee IslandTM, Big Whoop Amusement Park and the eponymous Monkey IslandTM itself) and characters (such as LeChuck, Elaine Marley, Herman Toothrot, Voodoo Lady, Stan S. Salesman, Edward, Bill & Haggis in one, Ozzie Mandrill, Morgan LeFlay, etc.) for both stages and cameos/Spirits respectively, maybe even a... "Look behind you! A Three Headed Monkey!" appearing in very rare cases (akin to Liquid Metal Slime in Yggdrasil's Altar) and a fan-favorite, one and only, Murray the Demonic Talking Skull himself accompanying Guybrush in one of his taunts (like Morgana, Slime and Rex).
- Guybrush's arch-enemy and a evil undead pirate captain, LeChuck, appearing as either an Assist Trophy or a boss, using all of his forms throughout the series (ghost/zombie/fire demon).
- Multiple songs with potential remixes, besides the iconic main/opening theme song itself, which was used in every game/installment, such as:
- Secret - SCUMM Bar, LeChuck's Theme, Monkey IslandTM
- LeChuck's Revenge - Scabb Island Map, Stan's Theme, The Crypt/Rapp Scallion, The Bone Song
- Curse - A Pirate I Was Meant to Be, Puerto Pollo, Van Helgen's Banjo Duel, Blood Island Map
- Escape - Lucre Town, The Knuttin Atoll
- Tales - De Singe Medley (both normal & battle themes), Belly of the Manatee, Rise of the Pirate God, The Ultimate Battle
- A Smash Dungeon based on The Secret of Monkey Island, complete with a Master Spirit of Carla the Sword Master (Dojo; as you need to fight others for learning new insults to win against her), Stan S. Salesman (Shop) or others. Would make the most sense, considering a genre itself.
How Guybrush Would Work/Play in Smash?
Guybrush may seem like he'll be an another swordfighter, but actually, he doesn't need to entirely focus on using a sword itself for his playstyle/moveset as explained below, except for a small amount of attacks, especially a unique counter special based on the iconic insult swordfighting puzzle, which leaves the opponent open for an attack by either paralyzing, tripping or turning them around as if they're fleeing while exclaiming a short version of random classic insults such as "Dairy farmer!", though full quotes are used for one of his taunts, and there's even a chance he will whiff and say either "I'm shaking!

Bubsy gets up, claws, and purrsonal!
I'm not gonna waste any time here, you know who Bubsy is, and you know his reputation and vibe.
Bubsy has, to say the least, a bit of a negative reputation, which is what would make him surprising - in particular he'd provide hope for fans of series not considered "good" by the general public. He'd also grab a lot of headlines - at least with Western audiences (he's a bit of an unknown to Japanese audiences, but so is Spyro and I don't see anyone complain about him being submitted) - thanks to said reputation. There is a very devoted Bubsy fanbase, which means there are people who will like this pick as something more than a meme novelty.
I imagine Bubsy to be a slippery, floaty type - fitting his gliding power - with cartoon slapstick and cat-like swipes incorporated. Another quality Bubsy has is his loud mouth, we could potentially do a special job to decide all the snarky wisecracks and insults he'd say.

**** it resubmitting thisJob 147:
Booker/Elizabeth
Bioshock
Alright, so with a lot of the normal explanation stuff done due to my past write up lets go over the important points here
Unique Features of Booker/Elizabeth:
1. Changing weapons and vigors - Given the number of guns and vigors/plasmids in Bioshock, there would absolutely be some sort of mechanic that goes towards changing them. One possibility is a weapon wheel where players can select the gun and another where you can select a vigor. While pretty complicated it's also possible to work the vigors into the moveset more naturally while the guns get a switching or wheel mechanic.
2. Elizabeth's powers - Elizabeth doesn't fight too much in Bioshock, but her not being present for Booker would make no sense. I'm thinking she would mostly stand in the background much like Pokemon Trainer. However, she would make some jumps to the foreground to do parts of the moveset. In Bioshock Infinite she has a few roles in combat and she will do those here as well. The first and most basic ones are that she'll throw Booker items such as money, ammo, salts, and health. This can either be a part of the moveset or happen as it does in Bioshock's gameplay, which is throwing items when Booker is in need of them.
Elizabeth also has the power to open tears and summon items or people, as she does in the game. This would likely be part of the moveset, as randomly spawning help seems pretty OP.
Overall, between the weapon wheel(s?) and Elizabeth's assistances would absolutely make this character and Ultimate DLC type character, which is something I think a few people missed on in the prompt.
Fanbase Reaction:
I think that the speculation scene would be turned on it's head, and much like what happened after Joker's reveal, people would be scrambling to try and be the first to throw out a name that fits along the lines of Booker and Elizabeth. Characters from dormant but rumored to be returning franchises would start popping up more often. Series that originated off Nintendo but were later ported over long after the games started would likely become more popular in the spec scene too. Characters from 2k series like Borderlands would start getting tossed around for DLC. Overall I think it would just open up some new life in the spec scene and make people think about some different names. Other western series who aren't really brought up start getting called sleeper picks as well.
Then just in general, we'd have a lot of stunned reaction videos. Bioshock in Smash isn't something I've seen really anyone other than myself talk about, so there would be a lot of people out there who didn't even consider the possibility. I imagine the opening parts of the trailer would would have some sort of reference to Rapture and Columbia before going into the main deal, so the reaction would be split between a "wait, what?", "..... Is this Bioshock? There's no ****ing way." or a just very confused in general reaction.
Smasher Reactions:
So I don't watch a ton of Smash youtubers, but I can tell you what will probably come across my Youtube feed after watching the reveal trailer 500 times there. It would be the following video titles:
Booker/Elizabeth BROKEN?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! - Any competitive Smash player pretty much
Speculation Scene Post Booker/Elizabeth - Papagenos, who somehow found someone who put them in a leak. The leak has a lot of random other **** in it that makes no sense and Papa ends it with saying "yeah, this one's probably fake but feel like I need to cover it because it somehow got this right".
Can Booker/Elizabeth do(insert a random and arbitrary but fun task here) - Whoever uploads these
My Uncle is a Janitor For Nintendo and Told Me About Booker and Elizabeth - The title of some random 4Chan post. This person also claims to know the entire moveset, base roster as a whole, and exact details of the conversations between 2k and Sakurai.

Was anybody gonna submit the Penguin from Club Penguin?
PastaRorroKuma
Smash Journeyman
I was but I decided to submit Jonesy, you can submit the penguin if you want
Tankman from Newgrounds
Smash Hero
Suprise character submission:
Raised as a slave and gladiator, he later joined Orgrim Doomhammer in freeing the orcs imprisoned after the Second War, being named Warchief after Doomhammer's death. After leading the Horde away from the Alliance-claimed Eastern Kingdoms, he rescued and made allies of the Darkspear trolls and Bloodhoof tauren during the series' events.
He is an ogre in terms of his species.
After the fall of the Lich King (The antagonist from the series) and the increasing elemental unrest heralding the Cataclysm, Thrall stepped down as leader of the Horde, appointed Garrosh Hellscream as Warchief.
Thrall is one of most popular WoW characters and he comes from MMORPG genre, which it was repped earlier as fighter in smash. Also he would be surprising choice for the game, considering that Warcraft
Many gamers know about the franchise.
Also he could summon the monsters from the game that could assist him in some attacks.
He is capable of magic, since he could summon thunderbolts for skies to strike down opponents like Sora's Neutral B (but stronger).
Also he could have inventory gimmick, where he could keep random items from the game and use them to attack (it kinda works similar to Villager's, but it uses the items from his home game). He also could keep cards there, where he can summon an animal to attack the opponent.
He would be heavyweight "turtle" fighter with no additional movement options. His design would be based on Lord of Clans appearance, albeit more realistic to match the SSBI aesthetic and modern game standards.
Also he could be fun fighter, since his "turtle" playstyle could more tactical like in his games, making him unique and challenging to main him.
Also the stage based on Warcraft would be fantastic in Smash, considering that the fantasy elements wouldn't look extremely out of place in Smash. His franchise has many characters to use as spirits in the game.
His company "Blizzard" made many games for Nintendo Console, so he could be eligible for this character job.
Thrall (World of Warcraft)
Who is that guy?
Thrall is a former warchief and shaman from Blizzard's World of Warcraft series and he is a son of Durotan and Draka. His parents killed by Gul'dan's assassins shortly after his birth in the beginning of the First War, then he was found and raised by Aedelas Blackmoore who gave Thrall his name.Who is that guy?

How he could work in Smash?
Well well well, since he is a warchief, he would know how to fight in Smash. For his moveset he could use his melee weapons like hammer for example (it could be used as Side Smash or side tilt I guess?).Also he could summon the monsters from the game that could assist him in some attacks.

He would be heavyweight "turtle" fighter with no additional movement options. His design would be based on Lord of Clans appearance, albeit more realistic to match the SSBI aesthetic and modern game standards.
Why Thrall?
Thrall should be in Smash, because he comes from unrepresented genre, which is MMORPG and he would be first fighter to originate from Blizzard (or second if we count ActBlizz after Crash).Also he could be fun fighter, since his "turtle" playstyle could more tactical like in his games, making him unique and challenging to main him.
Also the stage based on Warcraft would be fantastic in Smash, considering that the fantasy elements wouldn't look extremely out of place in Smash. His franchise has many characters to use as spirits in the game.
