When it comes to 3rd party characters, I think people need to realize something...

What polls do you think...Sakurai's polls
. . .I mean't "melee polls which where ranked only on the number of times a character was voted for in which Geno wasn't even in the top 20" or the "brawl polls that are nothing more than Sakurai commenting on people's post that cath his eye".

Hey is Golden Sun a Nintendo product or is it a third party? Cuzz there were a couple of great games in the series and they could use a rep.

Thought so. . . .
**** you, I quoted the wrong person on something, thinking they said something else...


You don't have to be a little *****


The poll showed Geno was popular and Sakurai was interested in him BTW...

Same here. In my opinion, they'r eht eonly four that derserve to get in.


(I consider Geno a first-party character, but alas, the law begs to differ)
His party isn't the thing that matters...the fact is he still is a Mario character first

so you're basically saying that optimus prime, megatron, that kid from beyblade, and the moai enemy from gradius has a better chance then megaman?
No they dont have large comprehensive histories on nintendo systems.

Not that I'm saying I would prefer to see Simon Belmont and Bomberman I'm just saying they've been in a smash like game before. I would love it if Chrono, Magus or Megaman were in instead.

Like I have been saying: Geno won't be counted as third party. They won't make a trailer for him when he gets announced like Snake and Sonic. People would just scratch their head and ask who the hell Geno is. Megaman would get his own trailer and would sell copies. They both would sell copies. Sonic, Snake and Megaman for being part of well known franchises that casual gamers know and Geno for being fanservice to old school SNES fans.

The fact that a character is very popular is not reason enough to consider him/her to be in brawl, i guess the most important thing is the relationship with the 3rd parties developers, first there has to be a good relation, then, if they have a good enough character it could be possible to be included

There are a lot of suggestions, bomberman and pacman would be cool, also megaman, but since he has been in fighting games with a very different style i really dont picture him in brawl, but the thing is that square right now is the company that has the best relationship with nintendo (counting only the companies with popular enough characters) but then again, it would be difficult to choose a character that represents them well, it wouldnt be Cloud or any FF character, definitely, cause i dont remember Cloud being in any Nintendo game (maybe im wrong) if it is a big name character like those i think Crono has a lot more chances, plus he IS from a nintendo game, and his game is one of the best games ever which is considered one of the best games, but then again, the game is kinda old so they might want someone more recognizable. so then there is geno, but a lot of people say he is considered 1st party, and even if he is requested a lot, i think square would want a better character to represent them (im not saying he is bad, i actually like him) and i dont think they could put geno as 1st party and another square char as 3rd party

Is difficult to know which character will be, but if u ask me, i would bet that the 3rd party spot left (cause they said that there were gonna be 3 at max) is definitely from square, but i really wouldnt put my money on any character (but i would looooove crono XD)

1) Both Bomberman AND Megaman have been in fighting games before so their transition into Smash would be without problems...plus they both have a GREAT chance...

2) If a Square character gets in, it will be without a doubt Geno. Anyway, you people need to realize SQUARE DOESN'T PICK THE CHARACTER, the people in charge of Smash do...READ MCFOX'S LATEST POST IN THE GENO THREAD
