Punch-Out is more an arcade brawler, as there was no PvP aspect till all the way up in the Wii version. As a dedicated 1v1 fighter with multiple character choices SF is the first one, unless you wanna include characters who appeared in Fighting games like Sonic(The Fighters), Snake(DreamMix), MegaMan(MvC), PAC-MAN(SxT) or Link(SCII).no, punch out was the first
then why does everything refer to it as a fighting series? i mean his deign is from the wii punch out, there plenty of arguments in his favourPunch-Out is more an arcade brawler, as there was no PvP aspect till all the way up in the Wii version.

DUDE. . . Mortal Kombat is too Gory for An e10+ Game like Smash!!!Gonna be bold and say Mortal Kombat. Smash fanbase has been BTFO’d plenty of times with characters seemed impossible like Cloud, Snake, Joker, Ridley, and Banjo. I can totally see Sakurai defying expectations and putting in Scorpion. After all, he has been toned down before in Injustice, and he was in the Japanese version of Injustice so it’s not like the character is banned himself.
Because he can be toned down? Have you played Injustice?DUDE. . . Mortal Kombat is too Gory for An e10+ Game like Smash!!!
Seriously; I Don't even want to think about how Disgusting seeing my Favorite Smash Fighters being literally ripped in half would be!!
P.S. If Mai Shiranui and her exposed Cleavage is not going to be represented in Smash; Why should a Gory Fighter like any MK Fighter be in as well?!! Especially since Mortal Kombat is not a thing in Japan!!
No;Because he can be toned down? Have you played Injustice?
I think at this point MK fans would be happy Scorpion even got in. Again, you continue to ignore my Injustice point where he was toned down and appeared in a Japanese game.No;
But a Lot of Hard-core Gore-obsessed MK fans would be P***ed off with their series not being represented faithfully with all that blood & guts; Remember the Nintendo Controversies in the 90s with the Green Blood?!! they were absolutely Furious; and also hardcore Gore-obsessed MK fans also didn't like DC VS MK for the exact same reason[I like it for that reason; as well as Joker being the one to finally link Star Trek's Khan to Shao Kahn; Seriously why isn't there already a MK SFM Parody of that Iconic Scene from Star Trek 2: the Wrath of Khan by now?!! With Shao Kahn as Khan]
And Plus; MK isn't big in Japan; and as such; I see no reason for sakurai to include characters who wouldn't appeal somewhat to a Japanese Audience; He's not just putting in characters that the Western Hemisphere wants; He has to keep the Japanese Audience & Market in mind as well!!
I Don't care. . .I think at this point MK fans would be happy Scorpion even got in. Again, you continue to ignore my Injustice point where he was toned down and appeared in a Japanese game.
Thanks! I try not to bring it because people get annoyed I mention Sophitia for Smash Bros.Honestly, I hope for a King of Fighters rep myself, but I'd be cool with a Samurai Shodown rep even though I really need to play the games because SNK is just that cool. My 'unexpected fighter' wish would be for a character from Eternal Champions such as Larcen myself. Although I do have to agree with S SSBCandidates that I am surprised more gamers aren't asking for a Soul Edge/Calibur rep. Wasn't it a pretty iconic series for Namco alongside Tekken? I'd be cool with a rep like Sophitia or another character.
All of your previous points are in the worst and typical arguments against MK I read in Smash speculation. You might as well have threw a bone to Metal Gear and Bayonette. Metroid can be gory in its own unique way even. Also, your end quote to the argument is very contradictory. I really hope Scorpion gets in now.I Don't care. . .
Injustice DOESN'T Count. . .
that's a DC Game, NOT a MK game
what ever one sakurai is most attracted tooSakurai and the people have spoken: Tekken has become the 3rd (or 4th if you count Min Min) fighting game franchise in Smash. What franchise will be next?
im curious as to your criteria for deservingOther than Soul Calibur, Mortal Kombat is the MOST deserving. Soul Calibur is the ONLY exception that should come before MK. MK should be represented before Darkstalkers.
That sounds like a brilliant shout. A true "projectile manip" character in Smash is an unusual archetype we haven't really seen much of yet, though it's sadly probably not big enough to beat out MK or GG... god I'd love to see some of the music thoughMortal Kombat or Guilty Gear. But as unlikely as it is I would love to see Lethal League Blaze get a fighter.
more like 90%While it can get toned down, Sakurai may not be happy with this due to his philosophy of making everything 100% accurate to the source material
