Yeah, we need more team-up characters. Like Midna & Wolf Link. We already know they could work together.
You don't know that, so don't say something like that. Sakurai favors kirby, that's why he put in King Dedede and Meta Knight (which is a good thing), and that's why he took out the Doc from Melee (bad thing, he's my main). Geno was never compared or contrasted to the other smash characters; that's not how they get in. Stop being biased.
Brawl is already done, so there is no need to be making character choices or hopes that some character to make it in the American version of the game that they didn't make it in the Japanese version of the game. Face it; it's hopeless. But, you did make a nice moveset for Midna/Wolf Link, though. Good job on that one. Better than what I could do.Yeah, we need more team-up characters. Like Midna & Wolf Link.

Midna can make Wolf Link jump very high for a third jump, as we already know she can.
Midna can teleport them.
They could fight using Midnas hand on her head for Smash attacks and Wolf Links bites and tail for normal attacks, like in TP.
And their final smash could be Wolf Links ultimate attack. Midna creates a big, dark ring around them and Wolf Link flies around attacking everyone inside the ring at insane speed.
I really wanted that character
Why?I am wellknown, but I was never a troll. I just acted like a fool to get a Encyclopedia Dramatica pageNo one cares about Mallow, true, but he is just as important as Geno.
Are you talking to me? Because, I didn't call you biased, I called The-Judge biased.
That was directed at anyone that would have called me bias, so since you didn't, no not directed at you.
I don't think he would have fit well, but we both have opinions.
I was never a troll, but I liked to anger and annoy people on message boards. I was a attention *****, and wanted a encyclopedia dramatica article to make my name more wellknown. So i joined, acted like a fool and they gave me what i wanted. But i am done with everything that resembles such stuff now.
Another thing is: Paper Mario got so many maincharacs just as important as Geno. Why should he be considered above them? And as Geno counts as a third party character, he would sure as hell not match Megaman or Pacman.
Not really because the one saving grace about Geno not being playable is that a buttload of other deserving characters like Krystal, Isaac, and Megaman didn't become playable either. It's funny though because a lot of people had a sig with Geno in it that said "if I'm not in, then no one else" and that's essentially what happened.
Kenny has returned! Alleluiah! Alleluiah!
Toad has a long history of working together with Mario and Luigi and is one of the most wellknown characters in history of gaming, having appeared in most Mario Games. He was a likely candidat.
Well, on Sakurai's poll and journal mentions:
Finally, someone dont flames or speaks of fanboyism.
Toad - He's in already. Use Peach's standard special move.
Well yes, for the final 3rd Party character slot it appeared to be between Megaman and Geno, however in October when an interview with Megaman's creator surfaced, he stated that Nintendo never contacted him for Megaman to be in Brawl, so as far as he know Megaman would not be present in the game. So from that point on, if there was a final 3rd Party character, things were looking positive for Geno's chances, especially considering his presence in the Poll and the high number of times Sakurai mentioned Geno in his journals
Its cool, and I know your not talking of fanboyism, but the general site is so offensive, and its pretty annoying. I see now that Geno would be a cool third party character, but still not a match for neither Megaman or Pacman. Also, Geno and Mallow as a teamup would be cool, but just waaay too random.Toad - He's in already. Use Peach's standard special move.
Waluigi - Waluigi is only associated with Wario through the Mario spin-off titles. In WarioWare, Waluigi is NOWHERE to be found. A freaking arwing made it into WarioWare before Waluigi did. So no, that's not a good reason.
I agree that Paper Mario and Bowser Jr. take priority but the reasons you gave could have been several times better. And I hope you're not disappointed in Toon Link and Zero Suit Samus.
Mario's partners in the Paper Mario games were minor characters. They were merely there to assist Mario and that's it. Geno was a major character. Now, Mario's partners and Geno both have backgrounds and both fight alongside Mario but if you've played Mario RPG then you know that it was more like a team effort rather than switching out partners at random.
Bowser and Toadstool are both major characters and they aren't consider mere supporting characters. Geno and Mallow had just as much importance in that game as either of them. It's hard to really explain it but there is no way that Mario's partners in Paper Mario took priority over Geno. None of them impacted the overall story. Geno's background did.
Mallow & Geno as a tagteam are more than a match for any star character. Two major characters can compete with one star character. I can see Megaman getting in over him but not any other third parties. And Geno & Mallow appeared in a game alongside Mario so they're more Nintendo than Megaman is.
Daisy is only cannon through a minor role in Super Mario Land. And her role was severely minor in comparison to Geno's role. She's heavilly more important in spin-off titles. And if you're going to start drawing from spin-offs than that would mean Waluigi and Daisy would have to compete for a spot on the roster since they're both equal in terms of significance (which is slim to none).
Edit: I'm not speaking from fanboy-ism either. Take a minute and read what I'm saying before blowing off as fanboy-ism.
Daisy having more priority over Geno? Comparing a character that has been in nothing but spinoffs since 2000 to a character that was deeply intertwined with the main plot of the game he was in is terrible all into itself. Also, the fact that Daisy has been reduced to an ALT in not one but two installments shows exactly what meagre significance she has. Also, Waluigi's not better off because, unlike Daisy, he hasn't even appeared in one canon game yet and his AT was even based solely on his first appearance, Mario Tennis. The fact that Wario was his own man in Brawl was basically a javelin in the chest to Waluigi because it was a testament that Waluigi was a side character and his relationship with Wario hardly an equivalent to the relationship that the Mario Bros have.
Even if Megaman was out of game, there still was Pacman. His priority would also by far surpass Geno.
I don't see how Pacman is part of Nintendo's history, plus the fact that Sakurai never once mentioned Pacman in his journals, nor was Pacman anywhere in the list of 25 or so most requested characters to be in Brawl from Sakurai's poll, whereas Geno was at the top of the list in both of them
@The Judge: This would be fanboy-ism. Or denial...
Neither is Snake a part of Nintendos history. But Pacman appeared in Mario Kart arcade and is one of the most recognized videogame characters ever.
It does indeed.Sunshine-themed doesn't mean jack either.
Megaman, yes. Pacman and Ryu, no.
The original Metal Gear games were on the NES. I don't see how Maro Kart Arcade is as significant as the culmination of Squaresoft and Nintendo's partnership in the golden age of RPGs
