I was having a discussion with a friend earlier today about DLC in Smash. We were trying to understand what exactly Sakurai could do for DLC. Now I realize that Sakurai is waiting to think about DLC for after the launch of Smash 4, at least that is what he says, but we can always think about what possibilities there are. The idea we came up with is buying a pack themed around a character (for this example, Little Mac). For 5 bucks you get Little Mac, an official Punch Out stage (something different then the current boxing ring), Glass Joe as an assist trophy, King Hippo as a boss, a specific break the targets stage (assuming individual break the targets returns) and 5 event matches. The first match would be a mini tournament where you have to take down King Hippo and after beating up King Hippo, the true champion in Little Mac enters the battle for the battle to unlock him making you fight to unlock him, not just getting him automatically.
Now I know some people wouldn't want to have DLC as they feel then forced to purchase the characters in order to keep up with the competition. Most people would just care about the fighters so my idea is after two months of being only for those that buy the pack, only the fighter becomes unlocked for everyone who can connect to the internet so if Little Mac came out on March 1, he would be unlocked for all non purchasers for May 1 but they wouldn't have the events, stage, assist or boss to enjoy. I think this could be an awesome and fair way to have DLC giving those that want to pay a chance to be an early adopter and those that want to wait not feeling like they are missing out on a character.
