I am sure they are betting that the fan votes will go to obvious choices of characters that were left out.

I want Wolf.
I want Snake.
I want Ice Climbers.

(I am positive we will magically get Ice Climbers working for the games.)

These clones will be the easiest to pull off and balance for maximum efficiency. I predict most of these characters will be released this year and a few early next year and that is all.

For those of you who may vote Ridley add one of these 2 video links into your description!

My other favorites like K Rool, Dixie or Wolf seem like they have very good chances. Ridley needs convincing! Help me out guys!

I can't help but try to think of a character that *I* would like to see but SSB fanboys would not. I don't care much for Tingle so that makes it hard. Adam from Other M, maybe? No, wait that would piss ME off. Maybe Slippy Toad with his girly voice would work.

Maybe I should just write in characters like Joanna Dark, Banjo, Conker and the Jet Force Gemini team as my own little way to stick it to Nintendo. Back in 2000 or so I figured those character would eventually make their way into SSB anyway. They were all seen as "Nintendo characters" back then.

Or I can just write in Capcom characters to nudge things towards Capcom vs. SSB!

Looks like I know who I'm voting for now.

Wow, man. Is that your life now? What a way to stick it to them. You've really nailed them on that one. Now, Iwata is going to resign and someone else will replace him and make the console of your wildest dreams with brand new IP's galore and new industry standard game designs created in all their franchises with third parties flocking like mad to the console........... And then you'll still complain about it.

I mean...

Sure. And then Rare was sold in 2002 which means some of those characters listed have belonged to Microsoft/Rare for over twice as long as they ever belonged to Nintendo/Rare. I'd suggest you move on with your life but medical studies have shown that people who harbor grudges shorten their lifespan because the bitterness causes them to age faster and it puts a lot of stress on their heart so one way or another you'll eventually stop complaining about everything Nintendo.

And that's how you stick it someone. Boom! Roasted.

Khush I think you're taking my post way too seriously.

...except for the Capcom vs. SSB part. That would be awesome!

Khushrenada · « **Reply #33 on:** April 02, 2015, 04:40:45 PM »

Not too seriously. I just found your phrase of sticking it Nintendo so appealing that I used it as a springboard of how you really "stick it" to someone at the expense of your perceived negativity here. Just trying to get a laugh using your post against you because I'm evil like that.

Nintendo's apparently saying on Facebook that they're only accepting submissions for Nintendo-owned characters, so basically this entire fan voting is just to see which clones from Brawl return and in what order.

Hello fellow Donkey Kong enthusiasts!!!
NOW is the time! NOW is our chance!
Now we can get another character into the BRAND NEW Smash Bros game!!!
And who would we like as DLC?
A brand NEW DK character of course.
No other franchise deserves it like DK.
VOTE KING K. ROOL and/or Dixie Kong Here NOW>>>
https://cp.nintendo.co.jp/us/ and happy SMASHing!!!
Glory to the King

My top two picks are already Assist Trophies (Midna and Dark Samus). My third choice is third party but currently exclusive (Bayonetta).

Realistically, I think an Inkling from Splatoon has the best chance: first party, new IP, and nothing like existing characters.

UncleBob · « **Reply #41 on:** April 03, 2015, 06:42:10 PM »

Why not Waluigi?

Shaymin · « **Reply #42 on:** April 03, 2015, 08:54:39 PM »

Because f**k Waluigi.

Caterkiller · « **Reply #43 on:** April 04, 2015, 12:16:01 AM »

Assist trophy or not vote for who you want please! Think about the Pac man ghosts. An attack for Pac Man and an assist trophy! That's not all, AND a stage hazard for the same characters!

At the very least voting now gives hope for the next game. For now though it's not like its impossible to make the Takamuru assist trophy just not be available when Takamaru himself is chosen as a fighter.

SalamanderNips · « **Reply #44 on:** April 04, 2015, 08:30:07 AM »

I have three ideas for my vote (still unsure)

I was thinking Donkey Kong games dont have very much coverage in smash 4, so Dixie Kong could be a cool choice. I was thinking through the DK characters and she seemed the coolest, runners up for me were Donkey Kong Junior and K. Rool.

Isaac from Golden Sun was my second one, I mean, its a nintendo franchise that has remained practically untouched by Sakurai, other than him being an assist trophy in brawl. Idk, could be cool, he seems like he'd fit in perfectly.

My other choice is Vaati from Minish Cap, Four swords etc. He could have some rad moves, plus a sick final smash. The only thing that steers me away from Vaati is the abundance of Zelda characters.

Considering voting Shovel knight, but i feel like they're more likely to choose a nintendo character -.-

Any thoughts on this?

Sakurai recently admitted that Takamaru was originally planned as a playable character, but he decided the character didn't have enough international appeal which is a shame. People will get over it, and if they don't, who cares about them? I'm not familiar with Takamaru outside of cursory googling. However, there's a case to be made that Takamaru could be a really unique playable character.

Sakurai also previously stated that characters from series that have no future are rarely chosen. I understand that sentiment though being included in Super Smash Bros. can breathe new life into the characters and the series (e.g. Kid Icarus). At this point, all the usual suspects, the major characters have made the roster (except for maybe Ridley) so for DLC and future installments, I'd like all Nintendo characters to be considered as long as they can bring something new and unique to the table.

I'd be fine with Daisy as a Peach alt though she really should have been a clone over Dr. Mario. When I get home, I'll probably cast my vote for Midna.

I assume the Wii U VC port of the original Duck Hunt probably sufficed there.

Does that mean they think the Mother series has a future?
