I doubt third party limitations are a problem for Sonic characters...since y'know that franchise is already quite prevalent in the game...I'd also doubt Shadow would take priority over Tails, Eggman or Knuckles to be the next playable character anyway since they are more iconic characters...
Also I forgot, why would Elec-Man be playable, I mean he is my favorite Robot Master, but over other options?

I'd like Tails if he uses Gadgets
I'd like Knuckles if his moveset was inspired by Sonic Battle
And Eggman would be an immediate "YES" as long as they don't pull anything from Sonic Riders
If you've ever played as Eggman in Sonic Riders 1, you know what I'm talking about. :4wario2:

Shadow could get in by virtue of the fact he is the second most popular Sonic character.

Even the Season Finale of Sonic Boom made a joke about this.

>Enemy with 2hp
Kaze: "Your pain shall pass!"
....2 percent crit.
For 9 damage.
Was that really needed, kid?
Fire Emblem in a nutshell.
- Normal hit on enemy leaves therm nearly dead
- Next hit is a critical hit.

There's no kill like Overkill though

Nice question. This is also something I would like to know from him since he should be aware of Nintendo's half license over the series.

With characters like Duck Hunt and Bayonetta in the roster, I don't see why a Fatal Frame character would be seen as impossible.
Smash 3DS/Wii U's batch of newcomers convinced me more than anything that Sakurai can make any character in Smash, no matter how outlandish they may be.

This is the game that added Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Duck Hunt, Mega Man, Pac-Man, Ryu, Cloud and Bayonetta in one go.

Doesn't fight? No problem.
Too sexual? We can tone down.
Not Nintendo enough? They aren't direct competitors anyway.
Guns? So what?

Not to mention the very unorthodox movesets added this time around. SF inputs, Limit Breaks, weapon durability, KO meters, almost every move being projectiles, holding button to fire guns, Monado Arts and so on.

You're damn right. The only reason why I would see him saying it's impossible is for rights issues.

I doubt anybody would truly mind if sonic got another rep.I mean of all of the 3rd parties i say sonic and megaman have the closest ties to nintendo,most of the sonic cast is iconic, and smash 5 would be what sonic 3rd appearance in the series(thats if he comes back).And all honestly if the fanbase can just focus on one character and boost enough support for that one character i see us getting another one

Sakurai's mindset in regards to designing characters in Smash is essentially "if I can envision it, if I can do it, then I will; if I can't, I won't".

Of course, this is disregarding other issues like scheduling, time and resource constraints.

Nintendo NYC officially opens today (re-branded Nintendo World Store).

Miyamoto sent a little commemorative drawing.

1. You underestimate how venomous both the haters and his actual "fanbase" are.

2. The broken base wouldn't dare to settle between the three we have now, with Tails having the credentials, Eggman having the villain appeal that runs support bases these days, and Knuckles having the logic process of his already being a punching character and thus ready made for a fighting game (despite Sakurai specifically saying that he picks characters for being MORE unusual rather than less. . .)

Anyway, you guys know which Bane in FE:F is for HP? And they didn't tweak it so it permanently keeps your HP below the 80HP level, did they?

I'm not too big on the megaman series myself...
But I would think Zero or Protoman would be the next best options...

She then proceeded to kill the enemy units

Well...
Azura's backstory is... an interesting clash.
Also, why am I going back to Nohr?

Next Sonic character in Smash should be Eggman.
Mike Pollock
One of the most frequent characters
Mike Pollock
Main antagonist more often than not.
MIKE POLLOCK.

Did I mention Mike Pollock?

Bass > Zero > Protoman > All

Zero is better than Bass in my opinion.
Also, everyone know that Roll is the best Robot in the MM Universe. She can use a ****ing broom to attack. Who need sword or a Mega Buster with this!:yeahboi:

He wanted to make Garon chuckle but he forgot that Garon doesn't chuckle.

A Palutena's Guidance for Corrin in English could be rife with VA jokes given Pit's voice actor is in Fates.

Like, Pit and Dark Pit suddenly acting like Percy and Silas with Palutena and Viridi going WTF.

FINALLY just went ahead and started.

I'm treated to a Prologue full of both sides whining over who gets me and suddenly after I actually start I wake up surrounded by maids.

O-KAY THEN. XD
