Alright everyone, prepare to listen with an open mind. I've come to present to you an idea that could be considered stupid by some, and ingenious by others. The very founder of Nintendo himself, for Brawl.
Disclaimer: I'm not sure, but this pic may actually be of one of his descendants. The site I found it on was not in english.
Now, the reason I suggest this is because, obviously, he is the single most important person in Nintendo's history. If he hadn't started a little company in 1889 called Nintendo Koppai, then we would not all be waiting to play Brawl right now. It could very well have never even come into existence.
Now, many of you may not know this, but Nintendo got it's start manufacturing playing cards for a game called Hanafuda. These cards, sometimes known as flower cards, I believe would be the best theme for Fusajiro's moveset. I've not had time to fully develop this idea, but I would like to post a few specials in potential, and perhaps we can discuss in this topic a good way to implement his moveset.

Up Special:
January - Flower: Matsu (Pine) - Fusajiro holds up this card and sprouts the wings of a Crane. He flies high and then glides for a short time. He can only glide when this move is used.
Side Special:
July - Flower: Hagi (Bush Clover) - Fusajiro draws this card and holds it out. This moves is chargeable. The longer held the faster and stronger the move is. Eventually however, it will simply launch. He rushes forward with the strength of a boar. If he hits it propels the victim straight up. There is slight lag after connecting, but the move is great for starting aerial combos.
Down Special:
November - Flower: Yanagi (Willow) - Fusajiro pulls out this card and it transforms into an umbrella. He holds this umbrella over himself and it deflects certain projectiles at a 45 degree angle. He is vulnerable from behind while holding this umbrella out, but can turn quickly under it. Letting go however causes lag and he can not jump out of it.
Standard Special:
May - Flower: Shoubu (Iris) - Fusajiro throws out this card like a Ninja star. It turns quickly into a water iris flower. The flower deals more damage and knockback than the card so close range use is not recommended.
Final Smash:
December - Flower: Kiri (Paulownia) - Fusajiro crouches and then throws this card high into the air. It flashes and then begins to form into a Chinese Phoenix, bearing beak of a rooster, the face of a swallow, the forehead of a fowl, the neck of a snake, the breast of a goose, the back of a tortoise, the hindquarters of a stag and the tail of a fish. Fusajiro leaps onto the back of the massive in comparison creature and blazes across the screen. It can be controlled, but don't be off the edge when it wears off!

Fusajiro has been related to every Nintendo president so far except the most recent, Satoru Iwata, who took over in the place of Hiroshi Yamauchi in 2002. Hiroshi Yamauchi was Fusajiro's great-grandson)
The liklihood of him being in Brawl is pretty low, but I believe if he were in it would be the ultimate tribute Nintendo could have.
I realize he hasn't actually appeared in any video-games, but this is mostly in respect to him. Please feel free to discuss.
What should his A moves be? Have a better Idea for his specials? How could he use other cards in his attacks? For more information about Hanafuda, feel free to check out Wikipedia's article on it HERE.
