Does the character being the Nintendo console countHi everyone! Thank you for your submissions! Seeing as how we had a number of them, I will be closing the submissions for the online tournament. I will post the voting link later along with our

So, we will not be starting a submission round yet. Instead, we will be doing a discussion round. This means that even if yuo submit a character, I won't accepting it UNTIL the submission round. This time is to gather ideas, discuss potential ideas, and collorbotrate with one anither. The reason why I am doing this discussion round is...
Discussion Round: Surprise Character
Our next submission is for a character who would be, more or less, a surprise addition to the roster. Now, that being said, we aren't looking for the Piranha Plant variety of surprisewhere people were literally like "WTF?!" We are looking to include more so of the Joker, Steve, and Sephiroth variety. A character that would surprise everyone, turn heads, and make noise just based on how "out of the box" their inclusion would be. Based on discussion though, I may tweak our final requirements so please keep that in mind. We are looking for a surprise that would be considered "good" by the majority of consumers.
That being said, once we get into submissions, we will be utilizing the following requirements for sure:
- Character must have been/be on a Nintendo console
- Character most be relatively popular within the gaming industry.
Here we go again..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.
What about Virtual Boy, that sort of is a running joke for me specifcallyHere we go again..
this isn't a take on you. Arguements about Clippy are just kind of a running joke here lol

ARTORIA PENDRAGONArtoria 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:
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.
- 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!
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
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.
Ahri- League of Legends (Riot Games/Tencent)
View attachment 351484
Why League of Legends?
Because it's still one of the most popular games in the world! According to Twitch, LoL is the 2nd most popular game being watched at the time of writing. It's also one of the biggest e-sports in the world, if not the biggest. Not to mention, Tencent owns Riot Games and was a major contributor in getting the Switch into China. They also made another MOBA game together, that being Pokemon Unite.
Why Ahri specifically?
Ahri is one of the most popular champions in LoL, and unlike the vast majority of characters in LoL her moveset would translate pretty well into Smash. She's also one of the most promoted champions, being in spin off games like Ruined King, Wild Rift, Legends of Runeterra, and she's even in the LoL KPop band K/DA(yes they have that.). Ahri is extremely recognizable, especially in the east.
Maybe because Bioshock is in Nintendo Switch?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.

If not I have a back up idea
Yeah but Rockstar does have lots of games on nintendo, so that makes him eligible:Hate to be that dude but I really don't think either of these work.

- 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
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.

That is true. I changed it up to allow people to be a bit more creative.Yeah but Rockstar does have lots of games on nintendo, so that makes him eligible:
Ah I missed that part. In that case criticism removed, Martson is now a favorite to be on my ballotYeah but Rockstar does have lots of games on nintendo, so that makes him eligible:
Yeah that was the plan.

Personally I actually think that a Sims stage would be perfect, but a character seems kinda weird.View attachment 357075
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.
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.Personally I actually think that a Sims stage would be perfect, but a character seems kinda weird.
**** 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.
