I can't understand why anyone would want D-tier characters like Krystal or Waluigi playable in Smash. If Sakurai is removing Wolf too why on earth would Krystal get in?

This reminds me on Smashboards people saying Bandanna Dee from Kirby should be playable, although knowing Sakurai bias it wouldn't surprise me if it were considered.

Sakurai still hasn't added important characters to the roster, let alone all these D-tier characters people want. Still waiting on Mewtwo's return, as well as Ridley/Dixie to be satisfied. Hopefully DLC isn't announced too far after the Wii-U one hits.

The real important question:

Is the sandbag a prop or playable character in that fanart

I'm asking the same thing for the Metal Cap Block.

Talk about promotion.

I think the ultimate Sakurai troll would be to make Donkey Kong Jr. a playable character as the next retro character, rather than Dixie or King K. Rool. Man, the Smash community would be up in arms.

Is Nintendo even allowed to use K. Rool? Isn't he owned by Rare, which is owned by Microsoft? I always figured copyright issues like that were the reason the Donkey Kong Country games were taken off of the Virtual Console.

Why on earth would you think this? King K. Rool and the Kremlings have already appeared in tons of games since Rare was sold in 2002.

They appeared in DK: King of Swing for GBA in 2005, DK:Jungle Climber for DS in 2008, they were in Mario Baseball for the Wii, and they were always shown as trophies in the Smash games.

It's Retro Studios who chose not to use them in their DKC games, not Nintendo.

Huh. Not sure why I though otherwise. Aside from the Country games I've never spent much time playing Donkey Kong.

Waluigi and Prince Fluff are the two in that image that I would want as DLC/in the next game.

Waluigi should never be playable in Smash Bros. He's fine for the Mario spinoff's but a D-tier character has no place among Nintendo all-stars and retro characters. Its the same reason people hate Dark Pit.

I have Link, Samus and Villager pre-ordered. Those are the ones I wasn't willing to miss. I'll most likely get them all eventually if they're readily available in stores.

I'm interested in getting at least Pikachu and Kirby. At $12-13 a pop it's gonna hurt the wallet if I go any further.

Mega Man is one of the most fun and satisfying characters in any Smash ever, guys. I absolutely can't stop using him.

Now, I really can't wait to play as him.

The Amiibo's assures there will be a lot of character DLC for this game. After they make Amiibo's for every Smash character, what are they going to do, kill the line?

Of course not, they'll make more based on DLC character. I really think Smash will get at least 10 characters through DLC, whether it be cut veterans, clones, or all new characters.

Nintendo is going to want Smash to be an evergreen title throughout the length of the Wii-U/3DS lifespan, just like Mario Kart 8.

They're going to work for games aside from Smash. They could do multiple different lines. They don't have to be Smash only.

I have all the amiibos pre-ordered at BBTS, they're a bit more expensive there but its my only option to buy them counting I'm not in the states. However looking at some more pictures of them they don't look as good as they did back in E3, which I've come to expect from action figures but not statues which these essentially are. Anywho, hope they look better in person.

I am a bit disappointed in their functionality in the game though, since they really do nothing I actually care about. Ironically when amiibos were first announced I didn't want them to do anything big since I didn't want to buy any of them especially hard to find ones like Skylanders. But counting they're easy enough to get and the molds are cool I got suckered in. Hopefully other games have better implementation of Amiibos.

Also Nintendo said there would be more amiibos, these are just the Smash ones, so while you'll be able to use the Mario amiibo in future mario games, you won't get as much functionality/extras as the amiibos released for the Mario series, etc. I guess its cool since we'll be able to get other characters that aren't "main" characters from each series, though I don't look forward to owning 10 Marios...So yeah Nintendo will be able to make amiibos on every Wii U and even 3DS game.

I'm one of those people who wants Waluigi to playable >.< I've always liked him. Idk why.

Also, I have to agree. I'm not a fan of Mega Man, but I really like playing as him. I love meteor smashing with hard knuckle. Almost as satisfying as Link's finishing blow spike.

Waluigi is not an important enough character to ever be playable in Smash.

The only other Mario character I can see them adding at this point is Captain Toad, especially if the Captain Toad game is a success. They'll probably remove Toad from Peach's moveset in the next game.
