right so I though I would make another new thread as to why Joe should be in SSBB. the difference here is that I will acutally post the reason why I want him in so here it is. also these are reasons as to why joe should be in SSBB before megaman.
Ok I am probably going to get flamed for saying that Viewtiful Joe should be in SSBB before megaman. Now first off let me say why he should be in it before megaman, it's because all megaman really has is a blaster, that's it. Sure that blaster can do different things but that doesn't change the fact that all he has is a blaster. Sure his B down (with a GC controller) move could be that he changes what the blaster does but in the end it's still just a blaster. Now if you are thinking of one of the megaman games where he has a sword and all these other crazy powers, then yeah that would make sense.
Now here are the reasons Joe (I am getting tired of typing Viewtiful Joe) should be in brawl, oh before I go on let me say I will be using the GC controller as an example for moves because that is what most ppl will probably use:
1. He has alot of moves. His B moves can be him using bombs and boomerang (yes I know it sounds similar to link) however the bombs would be more powerful then links, and the boomerang would just be a normal boomerang. his bis B up can be his zoom jump (play Viewtiful Joe to see it)
2. His Final smash could be him activating his Hyper speed ability and and when he attacks one player he will attack them all. So basically it will be a barrage of attacks on all players at once
3. His normal attacks are already there, if you have played the game then you know what his A moves should be.
4. there are some cool characters that can be used as assist trophies like the Joker, captain blue, and Sylvia.
5. Some of the bosses from the game can be used as villans in the Subspace emisarry, Hulk Davidson (yes that is the name of one of the bosses), or Charles the 3rd just to name a few.
6. He has an awsome pink fowing cape that even flows inside buildings, he is the only superhero that can get away with doing that.
7. He has a kick *** catch phrase. Henchin a-go-go baby!
Those are the reasons Viewtiful Joe should be in SSBB. Go ahead and state your opinion here or just flame me like I know some of you will.

It'd be a great surprise to see Viewtiful Joe cropping his head up in Brawl and I think nearly everybody on the Smashboards would agree (or die!!!!!)

I, would certainly prefer him in over Megaman as well because Megaman has just lost his former glory for me. Unfortunately, another Capcom character takes precedence over Viewtiful Joe, and that would be Ryu from Street Fighter.

Ryu > Viewtiful Joe > Megaman

To be honest though, I'd be happy with any one of those characters to be in Brawl.

I thought of Super Smash Bros when I was playing VJ because it's such a perfect set up, although I don't think his specials should be bombs/voomerangs, because they don't make a lot of sense to me. His regular attacks would be fairly self-explanatory, and could be taken nearly directly from VJ. His B attacks should involve him using FX, although some of his normal attacks may make use of this. I'll do a special movelist here.

B - Slow Mo Barrage. His punches and kicks slowly, doing more damage than most (all) of his attacks. If the opponent is hit by one, then they are sunk into a state where they move as slow as Joe is right then. As long as Joe hits B, he can do what he wants, but he's vulnerable in the air, and moving forward also constantly causes attacks to be fired. Once he lets go of the B button all people involved return to normal speed, which may or may not send the other player flying.

>B - Mach Speed Assault. He stands, but his cape moves twice as fast. During this he's twice as fast but his moves do little damage, and he must hold B-Button. Every second a copy goes out to attack them. Think of it like playing lightning melee. His attacks do not cause people to flinch in this form, so that it is balanced. You must hold B button the entire time again.

\/B - Counter. If the opponent hits him he does a matrix-style dodge, followed by a dynamic pose for damage, based on how strong the attack was.

/\B - Joe Tornado. This one is a tad obvious. You spin upwards in a flurry of blows. Not much else to say.

Final Smash - Six-Majun

Become the Six-Majun, and destroy! It uses all of Joe's attacks, and is basically a giant robot. This'll be downsized to work, otherwise he'd be destroying the world! So this would be downsized to a stage.

how is he far down in capcom's rankings? the First 2 for the GC were great. It's unfotunate that clover studios was disbanded, I wouldd've liked to see VJ 3 for the Wii

Having a potential moveset is not enough reason, every character has one.

That's not a good reason for him to be playable.

5. Some of the bosses from the game can be used as villans in the Subspace emisarry, Hulk Davidson (yes that is the name of one of the bosses), or Charles the 3rd just to name a few.
He would be cool, but that's not a good reason either, that is something to speculate IF he was to be in the game.

6. He has an awsome pink fowing cape that even flows inside buildings, he is the only superhero that can get away with doing that.
That's hardly a reason.

7. He has a kick *** catch phrase. Henchin a-go-go baby!
So?

ok first of all reasons 6 and 7 were jokes, I just thought I would throw them in there for fun. Anyway maybe Joe could play a role in the Subspace emissary. anyway can anyone name some other reasons Joe should be in SSBB?
