Honestly think people would be more excited for a Soul rep than a Tekken one, lol.
I can believe that, though I think it'd come down to Sophitia, Nightmare, and at a stretch Mitsurugi.
Soul Calibur II was what got me into fighters, and the first game I bought with my own money. I miss when fighting games were treasure troves of bonus content.
I'm not saying Persona is big, but it's bigger than most indie franchises. Likewise, Bayonetta got in via the Smash Ballot.
Yea, Bayo got in via the ballot
Which means there are special circumstances that might get a smaller series in Smash. We don't have a ballot this time, but that doesn't mean some other lucky break for a small series might not happen.

Going Playstation exclusive for SC3 was the worst decision.
Quick, someone check and see if Sakurai wrote a Famitsu column about how impressed he was with Guilty Gear's graphics.

He's just mad that you're not on his side with Anti-RE/TK.
Waste of energies to be upset something that aren't guaranteed to be in.
I'd be so down for an Ice Climbers style Bubble Bobble character.

Exactly. It wasn't a big franchise when you compares it to other franchises. Also I don't considered Bayonetta as third parties anymore in weird way.

Yea, Bayo (and Banjo) feel like "technically third party, but are unofficially Nintendo characters"

I would like to see Sakurai go wildly creative with Bob and Bub moveset but it's more likely he would turn them into assist trophy if he had a chance.
How many versions of the Bubble Bobble theme would Sakurai fit into Smash?
8? 12?
It'd be fun to see how they'd stretch a series with 1 notable song into a full stage soundtrack

Maybe they could draw some songs from other Taito arcade franchises like Space Invaders, Battle Gear or/and RayForce.
I'm a little disappointed Cloud remaining in Smash Ultimate didn't result in some Taito Assist Trophies, considering SE owns them (which is still super surreal).
At the very least, Space Invaders would be a perfect inclusion. Having them, Pac-Man, and Pong (on a technicality) would be some awesome arcade representation.

Honestly I feel like pretty much every fighting game character that isn't Nightmare or Scorpion/Subzero is just a really boring choice. Heihachi especially.
I'd say Yoshimitsu would be fine but he would never get chosen.

Heihachi is boring to me simply because they already had him in PSASBR using all of his moves from Tekken.
So it's kinda already been done before, whereas someone like Nightmare, Sol, Ragna, Terry, or Hayabusa (as a DOA rep) haven't been in a platform fighter (to my knowledge).

Yeah, most "realistic" options are pretty vanilla. Not that it's a bad thing. But I do agree that when it comes to major fighting games, there are few notable "face" reps that would be interesting outside of MK, Soul Calibur, SNK, and maybe the ASW games.
I'm okay with Resident Evil as long as Jill has this outfit, at least as an alt.
I have to wonder what the reactions would be if it turned out that 1 out of the 5 Fighters Pass characters was actually none other than Tingle
While I'd prefer a new character I think BotW Zelda could still totally work as a unique character. Give her specials based on the Sheikah slate or Champion's Powers.
And no I don't buy Sakurai's "she's more a scholar" excuse. Just reeks of a joke to justify using LttP Zelda.

People would be mad. Others will be cool with it because X reason.
But everyone gets mad at any character they dont want.
Wait, Pig Ganon? Isn't the OoT version of him already a boss? I guess you could use the classic version, but still.
Am I the only one who isn't a huge fan of RE3 Jill's design (I wouldn't say I hate it, but there are better options out there)?
I thought Sakurai went on record later saying that it was ALBW Zelda in post-launch interviews? At the very least, it's a mix of ALBW & ALttP.

A lot of confusion. A lot of upset people talking about stealing a slot. Handful saying they wished it was a different Zelda character. People trying to meme it and make Tingle top tier. Some fans happy.
The usual.
Was Banjo & Kazooie the most unanimously positively received DLC character unveiled for any Smash game?
Like, character like Cloud and Joker got people excited, but there were some vocal detractors against them, complaining how they weren't "Nintendo associated" enough or whatever. Outside of a small few angry Steve fans I guess, I don't think anyone was really majorly upset over Banjo's inclusion.

Ridley and K Rool were up there in terms of positivity.
But Banjo definitely tops the list IMO. There is nothing to hate about his scenario.
Yea, probably. I doubt any future DLC character gets the same warm welcome.
Ryu was received pretty well, though. Nobody seemed to have much issue with him. Or Mewtwo, I guess, if he counts as a DLC character.
This would soften the impact of the disappointing choice of Chris if he got in.Chris should have the sailor alt.
Did people have issues with Ryu? I don't remember any, other than some people had this odd idea that Sakurai would never add a fighting game character.
It's just an iconic look and also is a good contrast from the stars uniform. I don't see what's wrong with it.
Yeah seems like it.
But not like the list is very long. I saw no one complain about Ryu. In fact, he might not have had the same reaction as banjo, but I really can't remember a single bad thing about Ryu. Other then 1 person saying why did capcom get 2 3rd party reps
Nah, I don't think so. Problem is, Ryu's unveiling wasn't as big as it could of been due to all the leaks.
I guess that's fair. Hopefully the design is revamped for the eventual RE3 remake.
It got lost in all my griping I'm sure but Chris is unironically my favorite RE character.
Yea, the first DLC newcomer in Smash history had his big reveal botched (twice)
For me, Chris is okay. But he didn't gain much staying power in my eyes (I chose Jill for RE1) until Roger Craig Smith took over the role. Smash Ultimate's current female fighter deficit coupled with the fact that they probably wouldn't be able to get Roger Craig Smith back (unless they reuse RE5 & 6 dialogue) are basically the one-two punch that made Chris an unappealing pick for me as far as Smash goes.
Either way, I guess my indifference towards most potential characters outside of Jill comes from the fact that we have so few women in Smash as of now.
