Yeah I can see her gun being a strike against her. Then perhaps another female from the series (though unlikely.)

I am just trying to get the number of female characters better represented.

We could have:

Jill (Drill Dozer)
Sami (Advanced Wars)
Princess Peach
Princess Zelda
Samus Aran
Birdo (Does she count?)
Dixie Kong
Daisy (Princess Peach needs a rival...I like the fierce personality she has in Strikers)
Misty (From Pokemon...I think this is actually very likely. Her attacks can include calling out special Pokemon.)

Other Fire Emblem characters

3rd party possiblities:
White Mage

Yes... Birdo is official a girl but call her Birdie

(I just got to the part where Birdo shows up in Mario and Luigi: SuperStar Saga)
Actually I doubt we get Misty. We more likely get May because May is based off of the playable character if memory server.

Really. I may actually play Strikers now.

Though it be really easy to get Mario centric. Wario, Mario, Princess Peach, Luigi, DK, Bowser, Yoshi all have some root in Mario Mytho. Though I would like to see an event fight where you fight all of the Koopa Kids (Got to that part in Mario and Luigi too. Excellent game even if I can't do advance attacks.) Long Live Koopa Kids, Death to Bowser Jr.

With 40 Characters just with those I listed you have a 17.5% chance of randomly picking someone with some tie to the Mario Universe. Not to mention Doctor Mario which brings it up to a 20% chance. I'll just say the list is of the ones you don't have to unlock

Oh, now there is an idea I like. I have always liked Dixie, and her hair spin would make a nice recovery move... however, she hasn't been used much recently, and the hair spin move itself would be pretty much identical to DK's now. If any of the Kongs (I actually thing King K Rool would be more likely... but that just might be personal preference speaking) are going to appear, I sadly think it would be Diddy even though Dixie sounds like a much more appealing inclusion.

Hell, maybe they could have a Diddy-Dixie combo, like they were in DKC2 and kind of going off the Ice Climbers concept.

I highly doubt they will go with any of the human characters from the Pokémon series, and if it's going to be anyone it will be Ash (but, honestly, does anyone really want to see something like that?).

As for more female characters, there is always Mia from Golden Sun (...does that count though, since it was developed by Camelot?). Or better yet, Mona from the Wario Ware series.

Since Daisy is the best character of all the competitive Mario spinoff games, she could be a sports-based bundle of megaton like Casey Jones from Ninja Turtles.

Totally seksee. The kitten is quite the tiger.

Sturm is dead; get over it.

And Fox/Falco have guns. Why can't Sami?

I'd like to see Andy. He could throw his wrenches at people. Better yet, I'd like to see those Moles from the Airship/Tank/Boat levels in SMB3. They throw wrenches, too, but they're cooler.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #980 on:** August 10, 2006, 12:11:03 PM »

The point of my original post was to just run through the options we could see of female characters.

I agree most are unlikely...but with supposedly 40 characters (I never saw that quote...but supposedly it exists) I think we will see plenty of female characters.

Jill will be are heavy female character.

Daisy I would want to be medium weight class, to differentiate herself from Peach...and I LOVE the sports theme idea...but Princess Peach kinda already has that going for her.

Diddy and Dixie Kong Together: I like this idea. There is something simple about it...and very uniqe. I would design them average speed, light weight combatants, with relatively weak Smashes. However, I would give them seperate damage counters, and you can switch characters on the fly.

I still love the idea of Sami. She is less obvious and that is the reason I love her for the game.

As for Misty: I agree probably no human Pokemon character...but if their was Misty would work better than Ash, because Pikachu is already in the game...and Misty has a more stable Pokemon set than Ash does.

That's exactly why I said it was highly unlikely, and his chances of appearing are nill due to not being in the DS version... but that doesn't stop him from being my most wanted addition to the lineup, no matter how remote the chances are.

Again, "REAL WORLD GUNS." Last time I checked, you couldn't buy a laser gun or a super scope that fired off energy blasts at the local "sports store".

From the Smash Bros page:

"After much consideration, we decided to have Snake refrain from using real-world guns—instead, he'll use lots of explosives."

Bullet based guns: out, explosives: okay. I'd suggest a rocket launcher for one of the Advance Wars characters due to that, but I have a feeling Snake is going to have one aleady.

EDIT:
Also, does anyone else think this is likely Snake's level in the background?

LOL. So we can't have characters with guns, but grenades and other explosives are okay? Let's just give Snake a Nikita and call it a day.

Are you calling Daisy fat? OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!

Stimutacs Addict · « **Reply #983 on:** August 10, 2006, 01:46:11 PM »

I don't think Daisy should float... also, if she were faster-falling, it'd be harder to vertically KO her.. so she's like peach lite

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #984 on:** August 10, 2006, 02:22:13 PM »

Fat No.

But if I was going to vote which Princess would hit harder and fight dirty it would be Daisy...and so a medium weight class in strength and smash ability would definately work...at least heavier than Peach.

And I like the no float idea. Personally, I wouldn't put her in a dress at all.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #985 on:** August 10, 2006, 02:37:05 PM »

Daisy Short SHORTS

Costumes: Casual sporty shorts, Soccer outfit, traditional golden dress, jean miniskirt, and jean short SHORTS Cowgirl Outfit.

For the win.

Arbok · « **Reply #986 on:** August 10, 2006, 02:49:19 PM »

But what attacks would Daisy have?

In terms of sports, a golf club and a tennis racket are already in Peach's arsenal, while Ness has the baseball bat... leaving Daisy with just stuff related to Soccer and Basketball, unless Mario Kart can be worked in somehow.

Who cares? Cowgirl Outfit.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #988 on:** August 10, 2006, 03:16:25 PM »

Well for one should could use sports items in special moves, and not just Smash Attacks...to seperate from Peach.

It would be cool to see her Toss a Tennis ball in the air, and then you hold special to charge the attack and point a direction the fire it any direction.

A slide tackle for soccer could be great...and also perhaps could be used as an item steal techique. Slide tackle, hit them: and if they have any items you either knock it out of their possession or outright steal it from them.

A possible Ground projectile could be a Soccer ball.

Finally I don't care if Ness gets a baseball bat...something about Daisy screams assault by Baseball Bat to me.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #989 on:** August 10, 2006, 03:54:50 PM »

Something tells me Pro666's ultimate game would be called "Let's play Dress-up With Daisy!"

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #990 on:** August 10, 2006, 04:11:22 PM »

So long as Daisy has that sassy Brooklyn accent, it's all good.

As for Advance Wars, I'd like to see Max because we need more heavyweights, but I do agree that more female characters is ideal.

Ceric · « **Reply #991 on:** August 10, 2006, 04:15:03 PM »

Daisy in an untucked button shirt with jeans or short shorts.

I wanted to say something else but it escaped me...

Wait I know what it is. Fox Kids did the same to the Beast Wars series. If you ever watch Beast Machines you'll notice there is only lasers and Projectile weapons (think slow missiles). Fox said they couldn't have bulleted weapons like Beast Wars did. It really hurt the series.

Does anyone use the control stick for jumping? I personally would love it if they removed the jump so i can actually use the up+a attack. They only way i can manage that attack is jumping once while holding the stick up so when i land i can use that attack. And that means that for me its useless. I can fluke it sometimes but i dont know how.

yeah, dont push so hard on the control-stick. its anolauge remember? i stopped using up on the control stick a long time ago because using either x or y seemed more intuitive in smash. it did take awhile however to get used to lightly tapping the stick up to do those moves, since its a fast paced game and you're used to tapping it towards the edge as fast as you can. it took time but now i never miss pulling off those up+a moves.

i remmeber for the longest times i'd see my friend do certain moves with a character i had never seen, and then realize it was up+a on the ground and wondered how they pulled it off without jumping.

The GBC Bionic Comando had a playable female character. I d'know why they'd pick her over the male, though, since the original BC had a male character. Either one would make a cool SSB character, though. Since the hook was so integral in the BC games, they could make it more prominent than Link's hookshot or Samus' grappling beam. Forward-B could shoot the hook forward to knock people over, for example. B could be his regular gun, and down-B could be a spray from the 3-way weapon. Maybe.

Nope because Hideo Kojima is making Snake’s SSBB stage

Bionic Commando is a Capcom title, though, and I doubt that one of the total 2-3 third party characters slots (of which one is Snake) is going to filled with anyone who isn't a major franchise player.

jjeeezus I just got back from a smashfest where I played probably the best players in the state (GA).... L-cancelling, Wavedashing, SHFFLing, [insert random advanced tactic]-ing; these guys did it all...

I'm familiar with all of these techniques and felt fairly comfortable at first, but these guys analyzed my game in no time and I was completely screwed... I took maybe 1 stock off each, sometimes less.

I never want to play again...

plz bring back old style.

Ah, welcome to how I play constantly! I would have killed to be there! The things that would have happened to my skill level if I ran into someone better than myself! *shivers*

Quoted for the damn truth.

How people play any other way is beyond me. That is not how the game was designed.
