I really don't want Sakurai to add too many characters per franchise. Not all of these I mentioned will not be added into SSBB. One or two of the most unique ones should enter.

 

[McFox]

Yeah, I think it's a really great idea to exclude awesome characters because of the franchise they appeared in. That's sounds like a good idea.

 

[parrothead]

I'm not saying I don't want Sakurai to add the most unique ones.

 

[McFox]

Right, you're saying that all characters should be separated into "franchise lists" as you have made, and then a certain number should be taken from each, instead of just picking the best characters for the game.

I sarcastically reiterate that that's a really good idea.

These characters are what many people want in SSBB. If you want me to update it, that's fine:

Petey Piranha

Pokey Minch

...O.k. umm... people actually have said that they want these two things in Brawl? Let alone "many" people want these things in Brawl? I'm sorry if I find that so humorous, but... I mean it's just you had such a big list laid out... and Petey and Pokey really seem to be going overboard. Not bashing it or anything. It just to me seems so stretched out that it's kinda funny.

Hey, Pokey is awesome. He may not be Brawl Material (then again, who is?) but don't knock him until you've walked a mile in his supporter's shoes.

 

[-Mace-Solo-]

I must admit, I suppose I'm not at full liberty to judge him. I've only gone by a certain character named Pokey in the Snes Earthbound. I didn't know his last name was Minch, but my point being is that I might even know if it's a different person.

I'm actually going through the Snes Earthbound right now, and so far the Pokey I know of has only complained to me, or either betrayed me several times. (It's my first time going through it so who knows, maybe there's a good quality that you know of that I haven't seen yet or something.) So you can see where I'm coming from with it. I'm not meaning to bash him at all.

Don't worry, thats him. And don't worry, the boss fight with him is pretty cool. (Nothing more =))

 

[D-20 Dice]

I have actually heard people say(type) on GameFAQs that they want Petty in Brawl.

TC, I understand what you mean, but the fanboys don't decide what's in the game. So the chance is zero that all of those characters will make it into the final product.

Haha cool man, thanks for not spoiling it for me. ^^

 

[parrothead]

I know there are too many good characters per franchise, but it is best to have about two or three characters per franchise.

Seems Mario and Link broke that a long time ago.

 

[xzakcorex]

Though I'm all for diversity and unique characters, excluding a deserving character from Brawl just because there are already many representatives from their series IS a little rediculous. I would definitely like to see a few games with a single representative (Pikmin, Ice Climbers, etc) instead of just a few series with many representatives... a nice mix would be perfect.

No need to crawl up his ***, man. He's just saying that he doesn't want the roster to be filled up with 10 million Mario characters, when they could just as easily pull out, say, King Dedede to take the spot that, I don't know, Petey has. It's not meant as "lol i hate everything ever," it's a concern hoping that they don't place in characters all from the same few franchises. Some characters NEED to be in Brawl, like Dedede. Like Diddy. Like Lucario. But there's also other, great ideas out there are NOT Zelda characters or Pokemon or any of that.

That's all parrothead was saying. Let him voice his friggin opinion >.<

 

[burrito]

It goes without saying that the more popular series are going to have more characters, but I do hope that Nintendo doesn't ignore their other franchises. It does really bother me that a lot of people are asking for supporting characters from games already in the franchise and ignoring new fresh franchises.

 

[Zodiak-Lucien]

they can add as many as they want as long as there good additions.

 

[link00678]

you forgot sylux and weavel in metroid prime and everybody wants zora link in my school (deku link'll suck he'll die as soon as hit with ylinks fire arrows lol)

YAY krystal and wolf! thought I was alone on that one.

 

[Stryks]

I say the more the better, i want dark samus in there, deoxys, oni link, liquid mario, the list just goes on and on!!

 

[link00678]

zora link and fierce diety are the zelda ones this time, I hope

 

[mikeHAZE]

as lon9 as 7here is no7 an excess in charac7ers per franchise, i'll Be happy.

all the ones in bold are the ones I think have a good chance

the more the merrier! yay!

300 posts! w00t!

you better start praying for Zora Link he's an unlikely one.

 

[Trjn]

I say, let the best characters in.

If that means 10 Mario characters and only one F-Zero character, so be it. If the 10 Mario characters are all good and deserve their spot, then why the hell not?

But there are only 4 good mario characters Geno, Toad, Waluigi & Daisy and 2 good fzero characters Goroh & Jody

 

[kaid]

Rukario (english is Lucario) for the Pokemon slot.

Fighting/Steel Legendary from Diamond/Pearl, who can throw Ki blasts.

 

[FlipTroopa]

It's a slap in the face if they give a spot to somebody like Waluigi and blow off Little Mac. NOBODY ELSE would be offended by something like that? I love Waluigi, but c'mon... that's just stupid.

That was just an example, I literally just named two franchises already in the game.

The point I'm making is that if there are good characters, it shouldn't matter what franchise they come from.

 

[Dark Soldier]

as long as it comes out im ok.

Variety is one of the apsects of a good character.

QFT.

Huh? A good character or a good game? I can't see a character having 'variety' so I'm going to assume you meant game. In that case, having lots of characters is a healthy variety, right? Do they have to be from different franchises?

No.

As long as the character deserves to be in SSB, it doesn't matter what franchise they're in.

 

[Trjn]

Variety is one of the apsects of a good character.

Mario, Peach and Bowser all come from the same game franchise, yet they definitely have a wide variety. Variety is defined by the character, not where they come from.

I know I was just trying to show who I think would be best from those series

The thing is that your comment completely missed the point I was making.

That's all parrothead was saying. Let him voice his friggin opinion >.<

Not only that, but also Sakurai should save enough room for some of the most unique (and obscure) Nintendo characters.

 

[1338h4x]

There ought to be exceptions for franchises as large and varied as Mario and such.








But I will certainly state that we've got more than enough playable Pokemon as is. >_>

 

[icymatt]

No, they shouldn't overlook other series for minor characters in the more popular franchises. But if a franchise has a cool character(and this goes for those already represented and those who are not yet represented), they should get in.

For example:
Mario- Bowser Jr., Geno, Fawful
Dk- Diddy Kong, K.Rool
Metroid -Ridley
Kirby -King Dedede
Star Fox- Krystal
Pokemon -Deoxys, Lucario, and/or Meowth
F-Zero -Goroh, Black Shadow, Deathborn
Earthbound -Anyone from Mother 3

Any of these characters would be interesting and cool in Brawl.

 

[The Franchise]

It's really hard to debate just how many characters each franchise really deserves. The bigger series like Zelda and Mario have so many characters that they could make up an entire roster on their own. But then on the other side, there are so many other franchises they could draw characters from that it would be impossible to handle them all. I say as the long as the characters are fun to use and have diverse enough movesets, it shouldn't really matter too much where they come from.

 

[C.Falcon8092]

Good lord Fierce Diety Link would be awesome.

Deoxys too

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

I guess it's safe to say that the absolute amount of characters a franchise should have is the amount that Sakurai wants to add.
