PostPosted: Mon Mar 31, 2008 6:49 pm    Post subject:  Brawl Wishful Thinking  

I'd like to see some very different characters in the next SSB game, since a lot of those introduced in Melee and put also into Brawl were previously unheard of or from the same franchise as another character. I've never played Earthbound, but apparently both Ness and Lucas are heroes of one or more of the games, so I suppose that's understandable. But Ice Climbers? I've never, EVER heard of them. Same goes for Pit; although he's a cool character, he's not very significant otherwise.

Instead of bringing back characters from NES and SNES games (although I do feel for those who have played those games and have gone through such awful nostalgia), more third-party characters should be introduced. Snake and Sonic are a great start, as those have definitely been heard of. Another Sonic character like Knuckles should have been included.

More popular franchise characters like Banjo-Kazooie and Bomberman (my top two hopefuls for next time, even though Microsoft owns Rare now and BK won't happen) should be included instead of having three from one game. Fox, Falco AND Wolf is just ridiculous. Same with four different Pokemon-based characters, one of them having three different Pokemon. That's just plain ridiculous. Also, Game and Watch...not so much. I don't like having villains in the games either.

The original Smash Bros. didn't have any except Master Hand, and that worked out great. Adventure Mode would have to function a little differently, but I don't think it would detract. There's always Dark Link.

So anyway, here's my ideal character list; an incomplete one at that:

Mario............ Luigi
Wario............ DK
Diddy............ Link
Samus.......... Kirby
Fox............... Falco
C. Falcon....... Pikachu
Marth............ Ike
Sonic............ Knuckles
Bomberman.. Banjo-Kazooie
Conker......... Megaman

All representative characters, no villains, no more than two per franchise (Wario's got his own).

I don't much like Brawl forums and there was no Brawl discussion here out of the Friend Codes thread, so please expand if you have anything to say.

Take in mind that a lot of it has to do with rights. Megaman wasn't in brawl because Capcom didn't allow it to be so. I'd love to have a Megaman/Xero in the game... but it wouldn't happen.


Fox/Falco/Wolf are different, very different. They are by no means clones.

More characters the merrier imo.

I'll give you a better post later. I started this one and realized I have to go... bleh.

Another character I would have loved to see was Simon Belmont from the Castlevania series, but I don't know who has the rights with Konami.

Edit: Also, if they were going to go so crazy trying to bring back some of the old NES characters, then why didn't they bring back a character Nintendo created themselves?

Mike Jones (Star Tropics)

I'm not saying he would be good, just saying that they could have done something like that.

Hence "wishful thinking".

I know they're not. There's just too many from the same series. I'd like to see more diversity in the sense of overall games, not three from a series, or four or seven, depending on how you think about it, from Pokemon. I'm not the one to ask about stuff like this since I only played Mario and Zelda games back on NES/SNES. N64 is more my domain, which is why I suggested Banjo-Kazooie and Conker. God I love Rare games...I'm glad the next Banjo-Kazooie is going on 360, but I'd like them to settle the Virtual Console and XBL Arcade debate, and allow it on VC cause it's better..

Completely apart from that, I don't think there should be too many "human" characters other than like Link and Mario Bros. and gang, cause they're not really normal sized like Snake. Fire Emblem characters are fine too. That's not saying I don't like Snake the character or playing with him, but I don't think he fits well in the game. You're allowed to disagree of course.

edit: Crono!

i want 2cent-mad-props for thinking of the same joke blizzard had a day before it was released. but -1 bc strongbad would probably get 1/2 credit


PS that pixel thing is awesome! smash needs some more pixel characters, that is all.

and yes simon would be cool bc castlevania was super nifty.
transalvania + castle!!! brilliant!

It'd be cool if square soft made a type of super smash bros game with all of their RPG characters in them. I'd love to see cloud from ff7 vs crono, since everyone compares chrono trigger and FF7

They had one, can't remember what it was called but it was a weird name. And from what sources say it was a really bad game Wink it's for PS1

EDIT: Google found it in 2 seconds, cool. It's called Ehrgeiz.

Banjo Kazooie is owned by Rare, which Nintendo no longer has rights too. Hence, this won't happen.

This whole licensing thing is pretty lame, I know. I was praying that Goldeneye would be released for Wii, but once again, it's owned by Rare. Rare, of course, is owned by Activision now.

And also, even though DK Country is owned by Rare, Nintendo doesn't have any issues since it has rights to anything that is Donkey Kong.

It's unlikely, but the argument isn't completely invalid.

IMO they should put all 350 Pokemon on there, throw in the Digimon, and then some DBZ characters ftw.

Please... no more pokemon. I can't stand pokemon. Pokemon have no gaming value whatsoever. They are marketing flaunt, nothing else.
