Ignis' animation has the user engulfed in pale violet flames, then landing a hard strike that somehow scatters cherry petals around.

I sure said that!

Also, when the winner's announced, they might say...

Chrom: "Well fought."
Lucina: "There we are!"
Robin: "Now that's strategy."

I was envisioning Ignis being a hit-confirm-combo style Final Smash, wherein Robin performs a string of magic-enhanced sword strikes and Full-Contact Magic, all while wreathed in purple flames.

I have a message from another time...

Ignis as a FS could add Robin's % to each of his attacks for about as long as Sonic can go Super Sonic.

[up]I didn't click the link but if it is Alpha Omega Sin I agree they need to make a Smash Bros. anime in the style of Palutena's reveal trailer.

Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre Adventure

[up] Why hasn't Nintendo considered making their own animated universe?

Like have the following franchises have their own shows:

Super Mario

Donkey Kong Country

Legend of Zelda

Metroid

Kirby

Star Fox

Pokemon (obviously a different continuity from the Ash anime)

Earth Bound

Fire Emblem

Kid Icarus

And then have a Super Smash Bros. show to finish it off.

And none of the shows would have more than 4 seasons, a la Batman: The Animated Series

Actually, Mario and Zelda did have their own cartoon series, and a lot of Nintendo characters appeared in Captain N, so it's not like the thought hasn't occurred to them.

[up][up]Along with a brief anime about the first Fire Emblem that ended up discontinued.

Pokemon Origins and Kirby Right Back At Ya also exist, for the record.

The regular Pokemon anime(which has stuff from it in SSB as is) is already available. Origins was closer to a movie with parts then a full out series. Could've been interesting if it went that way, though.

I think they should license out Metroid or Star Fox or even Zelda or Fire Emblem to a reputable anime studio.

Is the Kirby anime any good? I've been considering checking it out.

I suspect the reason Nintendo hasn't done it is because they're a hardware/software company. They don't do TV, and they're reluctant to outsource something bigger than a 5 minute advert for Kid Icarus because of the old cartoons. But I'm just speculating.

I wouldn't mind Kid Icarus being adapted into a series, since the game itself is already basically a season of 25 episodes.

The format lends itself too well to animation.

Man, if they made a Kid Icarus Uprising anime I'd just never be alive again because I'd die from sheer bliss.

The English dub was done by 4Kids, so that should tell you something. The actual anime itself was apparently pretty good though.

Despite being dubbed by 4Kids, many people consider it one of their better dubs, so the English version of it isn't that bad.

Also keep in mind that Sakurai wanted the Kirby anime to exist separately from the games, so aside from Shout Outs, cameos, and Mythology Gags to the video game series, the Kirby anime is its own entity.

So, B-list Nintendo franchises get the better animated shows, overall, is the message we've gathered. F-Zero and Kirby get out just fine, Mario and Zelda flounder and die.

I sure said that!

F-Zero and Kirby also came out much later; when animators actually gave a crap about the video game show they were making.
