And my point is that characters like Captain Falcon and Ness would have remained just as obscure as anyone else from their respective franchises had they not been brought into Super Smash Bros.And as I said, it evolved into that. It has more to do with the games industry walking away from anthropomarphic videogame characters than anything. As others have said, Nintendo or better Sakurai shouldn't focus on getting PoCs if that means reaching for the obscurest of side characters instead of the more logical main characters and villains.
If the franchises at his disposal simply don't have that many PoCs among their main casts it's an overarching problem that can't be fixed with this game.
It's not a problem that this game alone is gonna fix, sure, but it can definitely help.
