Who you want/don't want for Super Smash Bros 4!

[Lord Satori]

I remember hearing that the Balloon Fighter (or whatever) was going to be put in melee but he was either scrapped, or replaced by the Ice Climbers. Anyway, I wouldn't put it past them to do something like that, and if they do, I hope it's someone good.

[D-KMR]

It'd be pretty cool to see Chrom or the default Avatar from awakening and Isaac from golden sun in new smash

I was hoping that they wouldn't put sonic in but they kinda already shat on that.
Never liked dildo jackal either and was pretty disappointed they kept him in over Mewtwo, even Zoroark would have been better.

If Opa-Opa or Tiki get included I'll buy a copy. Otherwise nah.

[BareKnuckleRoo]

Kinda weird that they don't have their signature moves, isn't it?

No, seeing as how they're attacks that are supposed to be named whatever you want in-game by the player that you're supposed to use your imagination about, it's not that odd.

Also, psi flash isn't supposed to do damage.

And ROB isn't supposed to be alive, Mario and Pikachu aren't supposed to exist in the same universe, etc. They're just taking a bunch of games from different genres and mashing the characters together in a fighting game, of course they're going to take some creative liberties for the sake of making their movesets.

You want Nah in Smash Bros? I definitely rather see Tiki than Nah.

Some characters I would like to see:
Little Mac (Punch Out)
Wario
Pluenta (Kid Icarus)
Female Avatar (Fire Emblem Awakening)
Blaze (Streets of Rage 2)
Mike Jones (Startropics)
Lyn (Fire Emblem 7)

[Vexorg]

How about a Duck Hunt dog that pops up in the background holding up characters in its paws that you just knocked out?

As a stage interaction, yes.

You sure about that?

From Starmen.net:
"One of the plans for Melee was to use a character who would represent NES games in general. Sakurai revealed a list of characters who had been considered (we don’t really know if it was all of them or not, though) along with reasons they had been dumped (some of the reasons were joking, some really weren’t). The rejected choices were:

-Balloon Fighter (“if his balloons were popped, he couldn’t do anything”)
-Urban Champion (“there’s not much you could do with him”)
-Bubbles (from Clu Clu Land) (“she (?) doesn’t really know how to fight”)
-Excitebike (“you’d have to install ramps on all the levels for him to be playable”)

The character that was actually chosen for this position was, of course, the Ice Climbers. Interesting that Pit apparently wasn’t in that list."

Never liked dildo jackal either and was pretty disappointed they kept him in over Mewtwo, even Zoroark would have been better.

Just because they're including Lucario, it doesn't mean the other choices are ALREADY ruled out.

[Lord Satori]

ROB isn't supposed to be alive? What does that even mean?

[BIL]

AVGN killed him a while back. In self-defense.

I don't know man, I just think they'd play too similarly but that said, we already have a fair few semi-clone characters so you could be right.

It's a complete mystery, guess you'll just have to find a rosetta stone or something in order to decypher it.

Even if they were, doesn't mean they couldn't rework their movesets.

Does Nintendo own the rights to Pro Wrestling's characters? I wouldn't mind seeing one of those guys like Starman in SSB. A winner is you!

I wouldn't mind seeing more F-Zero characters like Pico, Jody Summer, Samurai Goroh, and Mr. EAD.

[Moniker]

Little Mac (Punch Out)

Little Mac would be awesome. Actually, any of his opponents would be great too. I'm partial to King Hippo, myself (as a heavy-hitting Mac clone, if nothing else [yeah, I kind of like the clones.. so shoot me]).

I also have to say that the inclusion of the Wii Fit trainer was pretty brilliant.

Well they didn't re-release it on the Virtual Console for whatever reason.

I was thinking it, but didn't say it. Yes, the ultimate Smash Brother Biter. Silly how matters of rape get in the way.

[BrianC]

I wouldn't mind seeing the Devil from Devil World as a playable character, but Nintendo has been keeping Devil World from the US in general (though I think he was a support or something in the US Brawl, if I remember correctly). A pity too since I don't find the game the least bit offensive.

[MOSQUITO FIGHTER]

James Pond

[GaijinPunch]

JAPJAC

[M.Knight]

His finger pointing would be devastating.

@BrianC : He was indeed a support character in all versions of SSBB.

I would like to see Saki from Sin & Punishment as a playable character. He was an assist trophy in SSBB but he seems to have a moveset large enough for a fully playable character.
Isa or Kachi (from S&P2) instead could work as well. Basically, some more S&P representation is good in my book. That is how I actually discovered the series so it could have the same effect on others.

Not in Europe though.
I'd love to see what the current status with (oh boy here comes a discussion) Banjo Kazooie and Conker are.

As far as I know, Rare still owns them, though their own properties have been outsourced lately. I have the Devil World cart for the JP Famicom.

Speaking of S&P, I'm still waiting on an announcement on 3 after that cliffhanger on the Isa+Kachi ending.
I just hope Treasure has enough faith in the series and Nintendo's hardware sales to go through with it.

Little Mac (Punch Out)

Granted!

[KAI]

Richter fucking belmont!
Mega fucking man!

[Furry Fox Jet Pilot]

Megaman has already been confirmed to be in it.

As for me, my top 3 characters I really want are Tails, Krystal from Starfox, and Ninetales from Pokemon. (Notice how they are all foxes :3)
