Diddy Kong's games call him a chimpanzee, not a spider monkey...

Japan is already weird. When you lump all of that weird together it becomes...normal.

Chimpanzees don't have tails, IIRC. Diddy has a tail. This would make him a Spider-Monkey Most people probably don't know what a Spider-Monkey is, though

Yeah, and dinosaurs don't poop out eggs when they eat something and throw it at their enemies, but very little in Nintendo is meant to make sense!

I'm pretty sure kids raised on Cartoon Network in the early 2000s would know. Jake the Spider Monkey, Ben's Spider-Monkey form, etc.

All of you people! I just realized Bowser different in every Smash he is in! Is there any other character like that?

Even if so subtly.

Kirby's Hammer has been revamped entirely with each installment, for one.

Kirby had a different dash attack in every game from 64 to Brawl. A generic headlong rush, then the Burning Fireball, then Break Spin, which he kept for Smash 4.

I sure said that!

Falco's gotten different every time as well.

Did Luigi go through any significant alterations between Melee and Brawl? 'Cause if so, then he might count due to Luigification and his change in Final Smash.

Maybe Diddy is a mutant chimp with an atavistic tail. Who knows?

The fact that a badass ninja is competing with a monkey wearing a shirt and a hat for best character in the game is fairly amusing.
No. No, it is a terrible tragedy. These are dark times. The only escape... is death.

Well that's a whole lot better than 2016, right?

And of course everyone is whining about the OTHER characters they should have brought back.

Gamers are never satisfied. All you can do is keep making things they want and get em hooked on your product, then suffer the abuse when they yell at you that it wasn't everything they wanted. tongue

But I'll be fine if there's nobody else but Mewtwo. I'm gonna be eager to see his Final Smash, custom specials, new taunts and alternate colors.

The most likely third party character is Bayonetta but, if they were going to use her, she would have been in the vanilla game.

Cloud has zero significant appearances on a Nintendo system and signifies the split between Nintendo and Sony. He stands no chance in hell due to this.

Also, Snake has a far better chance than Simon realistically speaking.

Medusa is highly unlikely(3 KI characters is a pretty big thing for barely 3 games). Wolf is not, but Lucas has a pretty fair chance of returning. It takes little manpower to remake and balance him since he has a full moveset(unlike Mewtwo, which had to be made from scratch). Impa and Dixie have a fair shot. More Impa than Dixie. As Impa has an all new moveset and various other games to go to, and Dixie doesn't have that much to go off of. She's different from Diddy, but wasn't unique enough to get in any game just yet.

Shadow?

I'm not expecting any truly new characters as DLC, just returning vets who were dropped from the main game.

I sure said that!
