Haha, well, Bravely Default/Second are two of my favorite JRPG ever, a wonderful experience all around, so of course, with that, and the fact that a moveset made around the changing classes from Bravely would be absolutly unique and wonderful, she had to be in there haha
And yet for some reason I doubt that you'd be saying "man this roster really needs a Pirahna Plant" if it was never added.
Doubt it. Nintendo's President put out a quote saying that their approach is to try to use Smash to bring outside gamers into Smash.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s DLC line-up is now complete. This time the selection was made entirely by Nintendo. I decide if we can create a fighter based on their selection, then come up with the plan.

We don't even know if DLC after the Pass was planned by that point in time. Hell, we don't even know if the characters are even decided right now. This all seems like a stretch.
well im not fond of ashley, and i really dont think porky should be playable, i cant stand edlegard shes the worst, and i dont think we should have on of the mph hunters in the game and ive never really been sold on lip
Fair enough for Ashley and Edelguard, it lay on tastes after all, so I can't blame you for not liking something I like, but, I do wonder why Porky "Shouldn't" be playable, he make a good boss that's true, but he would also be pretty interesting as playable character, the image I took actually come from a moveset concept fanart for him, lemme link it
Like I said before, if Sakurai's quote is anything to go by, then all of Ultimate's roster is already finalized, not just the Fighter Pass. I'm just expecting the worst, because all of the pieces add up to it looking really bad for Nintendo characters.
That's being overly literal to a fault.
well "shouldnt" perhaps was the wrong word, i suppose he almost the series villain so hes not undeserving id just rather have ninten or boney
Oh that's understandable, tastes are what they are after all haha, but yeah indeed, Porky is a pretty iconic vilain of the series, so it would make sense
well i played a bit of the first metroid prime but i couldnt stick with it
I wouldn't have said that for any newcomer besides Inkling so far. The roster doesn't "need" anybody at this point.
: Captain Toad (not just any Toad), as he's actually a recurring main series character now and has spinoff presence as the cherry on top.: Skull Kid, as THE Zelda one-shot that makes all other one-shots unnecessary.: Any of the iconic Pokémon not from Gens 7 or 8. I'd say Garchomp, Gardevoir, and Zoroark have some merit.: Galacta Knight, a modern Kirby icon with actually interesting abilities and is recurring on top of that.: Dixie Kong, I'd be happy if she's just a (semi)echo, but having Spinning Kong is imperative.: The other leaders as alts.: Lyn. To avoid being another Marth, she can be a Meta Knight ripoff (not an echo, but with original moves that make her play very similarly to Meta Knight).: Elma. At least she's a console gen old, but I expect both her and Rex/Pyra by next installment.: Any character that doesn't have the stock Blaster, Dash, directional recovery, Reflector set.
When you think about it, Andross is overlooked. My want for the character is nitpicky tho since I'm opposed to his floaty head. I want lab coat Andross.
The floaty head could easily be his Final Smash. He's still Andross, just scaled to a more workable fighter.
: It should probably be one of the Toads, but I'd love King Boo : Dixie of course : Skull Kid with out a doubt. And add some Majora's Mask music already! : I honestly think the franchise is perfect for characters, but if I can't make Dark Samus unique, I'd probably add Sylux (or Kraid for lolz) : I really really really want Baby Mario. But I know I'm kinda the only one, but Kamek would still be really cool: Bandana Dee, anyone else would be outrageous, and not in a good way : I'll say Krystal, but if they can make Andross work, it would be excellent : Right now, I'll say Gardevoir, popularity has stood the test of time and we don't have a Gen 3 Pokemon (and we have enough starters) : I'll say Ninten, there are some nice fan designs that differ him Ness and I like the novelty of having all 3 protagonist : I'll give it to Goroh, he's in more games and it doesn't feel like he's only liked to replace Clonedorf (who I'm satisfied with as he is) : I'm grouping the old school oddballs and will say Excitebiker, I'm surprised it doesn't even have a stage yet: Tough to say, call me insane but maybe a trainer like character with the three house leaders (although maybe that's cheating) : once upon a time I'd have said Hades, but these days I'll say Viridi, we need more plant based characters and Viridi would probably be incredible with that theming.: Ashley : Louie, maybe with alts for other characters. Or just make Alph his own thing : Tom Nook: Balance Board lol. Or Ring Fit adventurer if you want to count that: Doc Louis : Gimme Rex and Pyra : Squid Sisters! Or Octolings I guess (maybe unique Octolings, with Marie as an Inkling echo and Callie as an Octoling Echo!)
You know I meant Super Smash Bros 64, right?"Artifact from the N64 game..."

Right...........
That Smash 4 CSS argument never stales apparently. Nevermind that the stage select screen in both versions show the Yoshi stages separate from Mario and DK (even the Melee Yoshi's Island stage) AND the music is separate too. No, the CSS is the only evidence WE need (despite that particular CSS being......... not popular to say the least *coughclonescough*)
bit harsh on toad, toadette, most zelda characters and the last two gens of pokemonPLEASE drop the argument about Piranha Plant. It's getting nowhere.
Anyway, I realize I never posted the first-party characters I personally want. Let's fix that:
: Captain Toad(and Toadette as a double package): King Boo(make Luigi rep his own successful franchise I say!): Kamek: Dixie Kong: Impa: Bandana Waddle Dee...or Gooey as the OG Kirby 2 player character: No preference. Anthony Higgins for the gag at this point.: Should probably be Krystal, but Slippy with a moveset based around Starfox Guard sounds more appealing to me personally.: Meowth(Team Rocket), Eevee, Blaziken or Gardevoir. Pretty iconic mons IMO.: Pick another from that list: Samurai Goroh: Porky
64 series additions I'd like to see?
While I agree it isn't good for Nintendo characters (I mostly blame Sakurai for that), but that tweet is almost a year old at this point. The post fighter pass could be a relatively new venture.
What I don't get is why people who are incredibly loyal to "they've gotta attract new demographics!" are also campaigning for a 3H rep. This isn't "FE is literally Hitler McSatanface", but rather "Smash is partially responsible for FE's huge growth in popularity therefore there should be a good overlap in their audiences".
It's called justifying what they want.
Fire Emblem fanboys are almost cartoonishly greedy.
Pokémon fans are too with their desire to have Pokémon from the newest generation every game.
Yup, I think Eevee, Meowth, Lyn, and Anna would be good classical picks for these series, but unfortunately none of them ever probably get in because it’s always going to be the newest character from these series that will be added.
Could you imagine if Xenoblade got that treatment? The cast would be even more bloated. I'm glad they're not focusing on the "new kid" for Xenoblade as of yet, but I'll patiently wait for both Elma and Rex by next game.
Chrom did break that rule. I mean, exceptions abound: Bad deconfirmation last go around, coming from a ludicrously important and popular entry, and was an echo. Still, he broke it.
Tfw we will get a new shillmon with an ugly design every single Smash game instead of cool Pokemon like Gengar or Scizor.
Oh, absolutely. Sirfetch'd is cool but I'd rather have a second gen 7 rep that's not a model swap of a generic wrestler, among other things. And if Sakurai is so concerned about relevancy, shouldn't gen 5 NOT be off the table?
Yeah, a Pokemon that's more unique than a generic wrestler and didn't struggle to become a fan favorite.
