-Lucina is one of my least favorite characters in fiction in general, to the point she feels like a marketing hack. I would like for her to not come back in Smash at all, not even as an alt. I despise her that much.
-There's no retro that has a chance outside of Takamaru and maaaaaayyyyyybe Excitebiker, Urban Champion and Balloon Fighter, if only because of lack of recognotition (because almost every other retro has the Japan-Only issue that Takamaru suffered before Smash 4, and in the case of Mike Jones it's a complete reversal) anyone else is too obsucre .
-I would rather have Cloud Strife over Pac-Man, Bayonetta and Ryu. Hell the thrid parties could be Simon Belmont, Mega Man, Sonic, Bomberman and Cloud and i would gladly take that over almost any third party outcome.
-The only third parties i want in Smash nowadays are Simon Belmont and Bomberman. Anyone else (even Snake) would make me feel overwhelmed by having too much third parties, especially if all 3rd parties return (i would feel this way too if Simon Belmont and Bomberman were added alongside all returning third parties, but at the very least that would mean i could play a Simon Vs BomberMan Vs Mega Man vs Sonic vs Cloud match, and that would be cool)
-I could sacrifice almost every Smash 4 newcomer for Mewtwo (except Mega Man and Little Mac). Palutena, Corrin, Robin, Duck Hunt, Miis (all classes) Greninja, Ryu, Pac-Man, etc.
-Wario's moveset in Smash is one of the most dissapointing movesets i have ever seen. Farts? really? and yea i get that the japanese manuals stated stuff about Wario beign gross, but for me that does not justify Wario using it as an attack. He uses his brute strenght to defeat enemies, not farting. I want him to use abilities from his games, like his butt stomp as a down aerial, his throw from the Wario Land series as a foward throw, the Shake abilitiy as a grab and pummel and lastly, The Shoulder Bash should have been a Special move (either a neutral or side special) instead of beign relegated to a foward Smash, only to be removed in Smash 4 for really stupid reasons. Wario is like a mixture between Scrouge McDuck and Bluto, a brute jerk who loves money more than anything else, not Bacterian from Dragon Ball, and yet his moveset seem to be more like the latter.
-I also hate how Sakurai and his team have ignored Wario Land in general. No stages, no music outside of one song (which was based on Wario's victory theme from Brawl which was entirely made up) no Assist Trophies, no Trophies, etc. Im really pissed as to how they pretend as if only WaioWare was important, and that has made me kinda resent the series to a very small degree (i still like the series though, and i know at the end of the day that it's Sakurai's problem since he's ignoring the WL games)
-Samus's moveset also sucks. It's really sad when a Mii Gunner with a Samus costume is a much better representation of Samus than Samus herself. Such a great idea of a moveset redesign, wasted on a Mii moveset.
-Im okay with Zelda have less characters than FE. There's no Zelda character aside from Pig Ganon that interests me. I mean if it wasn't by the heavy amount of FE characters, i woulnd't mind Lyn or even Chrom, but with that said......
-The only FE characters i want in Smash are Roy and Ike (and maybe Marth because not having the supposed mascot would be weird), anybody else can go away for all i care.
-Mewtwo's return>Any potential gen 7 newcomer or any other returning Pokémon veteran outside of Pikachu and Charizard (sorry Jiggs)
-If Gooey was a Kirby series mainstay (like a companion to Kirby like what Tails is to Sonic) i would prefer him over Bandanna Dee, since i find him more appealing.
-Funky Kong is nothing but a pointless bandwagon that will dissapear after DLC for Smash Switch starts, just like Cranky Kong back during the Wii U Tropical Freeze days. When Retro makes a new DKC game, people will bandwagon any new playable Kong like Kiddy or even Candy.
-Bayonetta is my least favorite inclusion in Smash since Pichu.
-Kid Icarus should not have more Smash Run enemies than Mario, no matter the circumstance.
-While i don't like Corrin at all, i have some sympathy for his Male counterpart because of the rabid and annyoing female Corrin fans that act all superior, i woulnd't mind Corrin gettin back with only the Male counterpart because Female Corrin fans are so horrid they have turned me off from that character entirely (i have stumbled upon some people i tell ya) more than i already was.
-Lucas>Ness.
-If Geno was recurring enough (like Waluigi levels of recurring at the very least) and wasn't owned by Square Enix, i would support him for Smash. He has the moveset and he's very charming character with concepts you don't see often (a guardian angel that posseses what is basically a hyrbid between a wooden puppet and an action figure) but he's not recurring enough and is owned by Square.
-I don't like Rosalina's inlcusion in Smash 4 at all. Not only is the moveset made up (which usually is something i dislike, especially if the cahracter has actual source material to work into a moveset) but it is one of the most baffling ones ever. Using what are essentially your children as Stands? What?
-While i can tolerate almost third party, from the famous Lara Croft or Rayman or the Indies like Shovel Knigth or Shantae to even obscure ones like Plok, having a Senran Kagura character in Smash would probably make me consider drop the series entirely. To Quote Jontron, "it's like putting Gravy on Skittles".
-Speakin about that, i don't want Adult-rated characters in Smash outside of Simon Belmont (depending if we count it as a mature franchise) Ryu Hayabusa (and i would rather have the NES incarnation) and maybe Snake and Cloud (again, depends if FF is that mature since FF7 is rated Teen) anyone else can go away (that includes you too Bayo)
-I don't want Third Parties franchise to have more than one character. It would make too cumbersome and bloated and would devalue Third Party franchises. So no Chun Li, no Tails, no Terra/Noctis/Cecil/whatever/, no Jeanne, no Zero, etc.
-Pig Ganon is the only Zelda newcomer i want, but i would gladly trade if Ganondorf got a moveset overhaul.
-Ridley is the only worthy Metroid newcomer and anyone doesn't even come close in terms of importance and prominence. If Ridley is really too big for Smash, then Metroid will not get a newcomer.
-I don't want Indies in Smash, but if it hapens: Quote > Shovel Knight and the rest.
-I wouldn't mind cuts in Smash at this point, otherwise the roster would get too bloated. I don't care about most Smash 4 newcomers or even some veterans from prior games. As long as Mewtwo, Roy, Lucas, Mega Man and Little Mac are in the game, im okay with the others beign cut (altough i know some of those characters are likely to be cut, so this likely will bite me in the ass)
-Stage Hazard Toggle>Omega Mode.
-I don't believe a franchise "needs reps", but rather that a franchise should expand is roster based if there's any other chacracters in that franchise that are popular and important and have talent that could bring to the game (see DKC) otherwise it should stay the way it is (see F-Zero, Pikmin and Yoshi) however i do believe there's a tipping point in which a franchise overestimates its number of characters and should not add more characters, otherwise it feels that it's taking away time and manpower that could be used elsewhere (see FE, where outside of maybe Lyn there's really no new character that could be added that is appealing, popular or prominent enough to be added) unless the franchise and its characters are popular and important enough (see Mario)
-I don't like the "flavor of the month" approach that a lot of people seem to take nowadays with Smash.
-While i agree that Nintendo newcomers should be the main priority in Smash, i would rahter have Mega Man over a lot of Nintendo characters in general, from K.Rool to Waluigi to Ike to Bowser Jr to Olimar to Balloon Fighter to even Lucas and Roy. He's basically Nintendo's stepson to me and i have a huge attachtment towards him since he is basically my childhood hero. The only exception is Mewtwo because if you couldn't tell, Mewtwo is not only my favorite Pokémon and my favorite Nintendo character, he's one of my favorite characters in all media, right alongside the Eds and Buzz Lightyear. That Pokémon SHOULD be a mainstay in my eyes, no ifs and buts. Little Mac is sort of a distant third from these 2.
-I would rather have Sakurai pass the torch to someone else being the new director.
-"MUH UNIQUENESS" is overstated. Most of these "unique" movesets are either made up nonesense (Rosalina) make the character a hassle to play as (Ryu) make the character suck (Palutena) or make them ridicoulsy overpowered (Bayo). Im not saying that uniquness is not important, but if that's your best argument for a character (instead of having an actual fanbase, beign prominent and important and basically any other reason) then sorry, im not gonna be intersed in that character beign in a CROSSOVER FIGHTING GAME that is supposed to have characters that people ACTUALLY care about instead of thinking that some random nobody with a "SUPER MEGA UNIQUE (and very cumbersome) MOVESET THAT NO ONE ELSE (actually a lot of characters could have a similar moveset if Sakuai wasn't so petty with moveset changes) CAN HAVE" shtick is somehow the best choice.
-I don't like how Sakurai is so stingy in not updating movesets. "IT WILL ALLIENATE PLAYERS 1111!11". Yeah sure, i remember when people were so alienated when Bowser stopped behaving like some Kaiju and instead acted more like a brute he's supposed to be from the Mario series. God Forbid Ganondorf actually using Magic and Swords (or Tridents in case people really have SwordPhobia) instead of being a crappy Captain Falcon clone that goes around punching people with dark electric effects (one or two attacks like that would ok, but it should NOT be the basis of his entire moveset) or Samus actually user her Arm Cannon more often instead of punching and kicking, or even worse, WARIO USING HIS SHOULDER BASH! OH NO THE HORROR!
Cant' have characters be updated to be more faithful to the source material apparently.
