Not really, what would be so bad about Torterra or Metroid Prime as playable characters? Scolipede is the only suggestion highlighted that has not already been proposed by someone else or had presence in Smash Bros to some degree already and I see an eight foot tall centipede with claws on its "neck" wielding a baseball bat or super scope as nothing less than so cool its awesome.

Anyway, Zygarde would be a better choice than Mewtwo in one small but important area: Advertising. We all know Zygarde is going to be the mascot of a future Pokemon game, like Rayquaza, Giratina and Kyurem before it. What better way to hype that inevitable installment than a spot on the smash bros roster?

Zygarde is very Pokeball material.

Or a stage element.

No, Zygarde wouldn't be used for advertising because he's a mascot legendary. None of those ever become playable. They're either stage elements a la Spear Pillar or Pokeball Pokemon. If anyone gets used for advertising it's the ones that actually advertised the game like Lucario did for Generation IV.

And guess what? Mewtwo and Lucario both advertised Generation VI through the Mega Evolution thing, so there you go.

Can we just stop at this point and change the subject? I'm getting sick of circular arguments.

Would anybody be upset if they announced Zero as a playable character without warning?

[up]Slightly. Although prototype!Zero, I'd be fine with as a Trophy or Assist Trophy.

Upset? No. Incredibly bewildered? Utterly suprised? Yes.
If it were Mega Man Zero, then I'd also stop caring how it happened.

If we had to get another Megaman character my vote goes to Roll (in her Battle Network incarnation) or Roll Caskett.

Zero is hardly even close to being half important as Mega Man, and Sakurai already made clear they're not overdoing third party characters, especially more than one from the same franchise.

Honestly, I'd want less characters for Mario and every series that sprung off from Mario :P I mean, while all of them are separate distinct series, they are still kind of similar in spirit.

Well I think we all know how this conversation is going to go, so instead let's talk about impossible additions! If you could add any character, regardless of affiliation to nintendo, who would it be?

'cause I've already said two other obscure characters already and frankly said, even fricking Sukapon has better chances than that guy.

It was said in an interview that Samus is floaty when she jumps because that's how she is in her games, or at least NES and Super.

I was explaining why just Rosalina is light, not both her and Samus.

[up][up][up]Dat textured-on mouth.

Also, Launch Star might be Rosalina's Up B.

That's been pretty much apparent since the reveal trailer.

Which is why I pointed out afterward that the trailer probably also meant that Rainbow Road was a stage. :/

And we pointed out the suspicious wording of Sakurai's Miiverse post hinting at a reveal in the Direct. :/

Probably harder to see the seams in the 3DS version when showing off stages.

I don't understand.

It's a road that you go when you die. Can't wait to go there.

You realise how that sounded, right? tongue

Hey, there is at least one game not based on anime that is on gba as well!

Wait, there's an F-Zero game based on the anime?

Double Dash has my favorite character list, although I like Funky Kong, Rosalina, and Dry Bowser as well.

Same here. But then DS added Dry Bones and I wanted a game with Double Dash's roster, Dry Bones and a few more new guys. They could have beat it in Wii, but they ditched Petey Piranha and gave us two more filler Baby characters, one of which was made up for the game.

And now their back in Mario Kart 8...

Part of my desire for Mewtwo is the fact that I, personally, DESPISE Scizor.

Friend, why you be hatin'?

Would anybody be upset if they announced Zero as a playable character without warning?

I might be. With the roster having limits as it is, double-dipping in a third party franchise doesn't sound ideal.

Reggie.

Rosalina is going to be top tier, I'm calling it.

Rosalina will be God Tier. Ha ha, geddit?

I'll see myself out.

I hope they fix Starfy so that he isn't the Goldeen of Assist Trophies, though.
