I hope we get at least 2 big Nintendo 1st party reps. Between the Assist trophies de-confirming half the popular requests, there's not many options left. Dixie, maybe Captain Toad/Toadette are among the few 1st parties not with Assists. Geno would be third party IF he gets in, and even then Square probably wants one of their characters promoted over a one-off from 22 years ago.

Banjo-Kazooie is also a long shot, it basically depends if Microsoft and Nintendo really are ready to co-operate. If an N64 classic does get announced with Rare games, I'd say he's more likely...but as of right now, I dunno. I wouldn't get your hopes up.

I think Banjo Kazooie is actually pretty realistic sense he is a classic Nintendo character and Microsoft and Nintendo have working partnership right now....for now at least

Also I agree about the DLC and that is why I believe Banjo will be one of the DLC characters. I am wondering if we will get any more sonic characters. Maybe we one the DLC characters could be another Sonic character??? One can hope!

Nintendo and Microsoft have always had a very chummy relationship since the beginning, I think the main reason against Banjo being on Smash is that Nintendo being a Japanese company they're very proud and stubborn so including a rival's mascot character might be a no-no. I loved Banjo as a kid and was sad to see him leave Nintendo but since Microsoft never really used him I kind of outgrew Banjo and most of my nostalgia for him so I never wanted him in Smash until I saw the grinch Leak and realized that no matter what his N64 titles were still amazing and he deserved to be in.

Same with Geno, I absolutely loved SMRPG as a kid and Geno was my favorite party member but I always thought if we were getting a Square-Enix representative I'd rather have a Black Mage or even a Slime, that is until I saw the leak and I just thought he'd be amazing in smash.

It'll be until after Piranha plant releases that we'll likely get the first DLC character revealed, hell it might not be until E3 so I won't even care to think of DLC characters now, I do think they'll rely on third parties since it's easier to give them a chunk of money for the sales. My only big wish for the DLC is that it'd include previous stages/pokeballs/AT that didn't make the cut on Ultimate as an added incentive instead of something lame like Mii costumes.

As long as the DLC isn't 5 more JRPG anime animu characters who all look the same, I'm fine with anyone. Looking at the character select screen online, all the Fire Emblem characters look so bland and out of place compared to all of Nintendo's cartoony and colorful mascots, animal characters, pokemon, aliens, etc. 7 Fire Emblem's and 4 of them being blue haired anime swordsman.

I give Cloud a pass because he's a huge icon, but please no more anime JRPG characters. Just please no more JRPG swordsman...Sakurai's Fire Emblem obsession is ridiculous.

I think we are getting just that, 5 JRPG swordsman.

The horror, the horror!

I'd like to see some interesting characters in DLC before we have to wait 5+ years for the next Smash.

I'm with you on this.

Given the work Ubisoft has done with Nintendo with the Mario Rabbids game and currently Starlink, I think they should definitely show Ubisoft some love and make Rayman one of the DLC characters. I think he'd be a perfect fit and they'd have no trouble integrating his moves into the game as it would translate perfectly.

I would definitely love to see another Sonic character. I was really hoping for Shadow to have been a fighter since he was previously not shown to be an assist and is a pretty obvious echo to Sonic. It's just odd for a series like Castlevania to get 2 characters and even Street Fighter, but not Sonic. So my only other 2 picks for some brand new fleshed out fighters from the Sonic franchise worthy of being DLC would be Eggman or Classic Sonic.

I previously stated I'd like to see Classic Sonic be an echo, but if he's unique enough to have his own games or playstyle in Sonic games, then there should be no problem making him a unique fighter. Eggman is a little more goofy, but I see him working more like Bowser Jr., though instead of being in a clown car, he'd be in that flying vehicle he's always in. Though, I wouldn't mind if he was just a boss character either.

I thought they really wasted the opportunity to include an Arms character. It was disappointing seeing Spring-Man be nothing more than an assist. Really thought that was wasted potential and as far as DLC goes, I think it would be highly unlikely to see Arms get any representation as it probably wouldn't be the hottest DLC.

I've seen this one suggested in a video and I couldn't agree more with it, and that's King Boo. Luigi's Mansion has been getting some love recently, and given that the third one is set to release next year, I think it would be great timing to have King Boo represent the Luigi's Mansion series as a way to increase interest in the next installment.

I would like to see Tails or Knuckles. I feel like knuckles would be an obvious echo fighter. While I prefer shadow Knuckles has more exposure in the video games and is probably a more recognizable character to the casual fan.

[CyberCubed]

They're not going to spend so much time making another third party character from the same series, echoes are easy to make, but a ground-up new character? Why bother do that when you can advertise a new character from the company and another franchise instead? Shadow's only chance was an echo but none of the other Sonic characters are going to be made over important third party characters. Since Sakurai said Nintendo chose the fighters this time they're probably going to be relevant characters, probably less third parties than I thought anyway.

I would have definitely loved to see Knuckles be a fighter but he's already an assist. Also, Knuckles doesn't really fit as an echo character. He's unique enough to warrant a brand new moveset.

That's irrelevant to the discussion of what we would like to see. Nobody was speculating.

[TheBlueTurtle1]

Well Sakurai just said on his twitter that Nintendo choose the DLC, not himself. So that means promotional characters. The only hope for Banjo now, is if his games are on the N64 mini.

I guess that is why we got bayonetta last time, Nintendo most likely felt she need the power that smash gives franchises to boost sales of the games.

I am not expecting anything good from this DLC at all

[CyberCubed]

Dixie and El Capitan Toad/Toadette let's go.

I have Sonic & Bayonetta, I’m good.

I wonder why there hasn't been a Super Smash Bros. porno yet. It rather writes itself.

The internet exists, so there is.

I don't even wanna know why it came to mind for you.

I have played the last two that much, but for Smash 64 and Melee I used Captain Falcon.
