If Buchanan ever becomes a DLC character, he'd become the Pichu.

No, I'm not talking about Ultimate Pichu. I'm referring to Melee Pichu, the original joke; bottom-tier fodder character. :p
Of course William Howard Taft deserves to come back first. He's got a massive fanbase you know.

Of course, personally I want Thomas Jefferson, but he's rather unpopular so I dunno on his chances.

You all talk about a President fighting game.

What we need is a cryptid fighting game.

Beast of Bray Road, Bigfoot/Sasquatch, Chupacabra, Dover Demon, Flatwoods Monster, Fouke Monster, Goatman, Jersey Devil, Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp, Skunk Ape, Yeti, Yowie, etc.

It has an uneven number of characters. In the eyes of a snake, this is very bad.

I'm not against a Marvel fighting game at all, but the only thing that I question is the source itself. The source Daniel Richtman (aka DanielRPK on twitter) is sometimes a hit and miss at times. The only times he was a hit is when he got the dates of the promotional material for film teasers and trailers right, but as for his scoops and rumours, he can often be a miss.
The problem is that this is an ongoing rumor from a handful of places over the course of 6 months.

Also, no way NRS is doing marvel unless it’s DC vs Marvel. I just don’t see it.

Persona
It's a shame this never happened. Imagine getting a sprite-based 2D fighting game combining standard light and heavy attacks with Persona attacks, an SP bar that can be spent to use an Instant Kill attack that finishes off the opponent immediately.

So much unrealized potential...

Even Dora the Explorer? Thomas the Tank Engine? :p

Who knows maybe that might come into fruition in the future. I wouldn't have my doubts just yet given its popularity.

Imagine Altus/Sega having a deal with ArcSys to such a fighting game.

I've been playing a bit of the Mario 64 Browser version, and I think it's made me appreciate the game more. I first played it on 3D All-Stars but I did it in between playing Sunshine and Galaxy so it really felt like the weakest part of the package. The fact that it holds up so well even when limited to keyboard controls shows how well it was designed imo. Especially the camera, it follows Mario nearly perfectly. Although, I have only played the first section of levels and the fact it's actually in wide screen may help :p

A cryptid fighting game would be the easiest thing to pull off btw being all cryptids are in the Public Domain.

And the 12 cryptids I listed would be a good start for a roster.

Which is why someone needs to get on it.

I think we can get a Persona fighting video game co-developed by Atlus and Arc System Works for arcades, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360; along with a sequel.

Never say never.

Godzilla is long overdue for another fighting game.

Whether by Netherrealm Studios or ArcSys I don't care. I want there to be another.

Also having Eva-01, Gamera, King Kong, and Ultraman as guest characters.

Don’t forget that giant Toho Frankenstein monster that was gonna fight godzilla
Interesting fact, that began as an unmade concept of King Kong vs. Frankenstein where Victor's great-grandson created his own monster using animals and both it and King Kong would have fought it out in San Francisco, this would have served as a sequel to the 1933 King Kong film where King Kong would have survived his fall.

Then what was as you mentioned Godzilla vs. Frankenstein came to this before settling with King Kong vs. Godzilla (1962), this explains King Kong's electrical abilities we see at the end of the film which was meant to be for Frankenstein.

I don’t remember WWE crossing over with the 7DS...and as a WWE smark I would know considering the company loves to hype up any video game they crossover with

I would love for the story of Frankenstein integrated into the MonsterVerse.

It would involve around Victor Frankenstein's descendant creating his own monster using the body parts of titans and bringing his creature to life, this is something that would certainly enrage Godzilla.

And to explore more into this. There could even be a flashback where Victor witnesses Godzilla himself which inspired him more to create life meddling with nature which would fit the theme. Victor feeling that all the power he thought he had become non-existent and so he seeks to get it back. The Titan monster would essentially be the culmination of this, trying to create a beast that challenges the thing that took their power away.

Either that or he was just obsessed with life and death and thought Godzilla was the perfect example, an inspiration to strive toward.
