I think it mostly depends on what type of stuff you want to play. The library is fairly small, but it has a lot of good exclusives; Super Mario 3 D World, Splatoon, Super Mario Maker, Mario Kart 8, Hyrule Warriors, the Bayonetta games, etc.
Reaction Image RepositoryThere's that Smash 4 + Splatoon Wii U bundle coming out later, right? I'd say to get that because you can get hundreds of hours in out of each of those games.
Going back to that high school yearbook superlatives post I made a while back about the Smash cast, I think Marth has met his match for the "Best Hair" award in you-know-who.
Call me Willy Whistle 'cause I can't speak, baby. Something in TV Tropes really drove me crazy.Question: how popular was Panel De Pon in Japan?
By the way I just looked it up and apparently the summons in Cloud's stage work in the following way:
There's a stage-exclusive Smash Ball-like item
◊ and whoever breaks it will be the one calling the summon, they won't just appear on stage randomly.
Okay, that's a cool idea. If there's a Knights of the Round summon it had better be an abbreviated version.

In my (admittedly limited) understanding, it was mildly popular, but wasn't particularly huge either.

Reaction Image RepositoryThe fact that she's a main character in Captain Rainbow is a testament to how obscure she is in Japan. However, unlike Little Mac, that obscurity also extends internationally.
Personal thoughts on Lip: She would be an interesting way of having a Tetris-style character in the game. However, while Lip's Stick being an item since Melee and her Captain Rainbow appearance do give her edges, she's still a character that Sakurai would really be reaching for. Not that that's bad, just that that's going to be difficult.

Personally, I think if she makes it in at all, it'll be as a base character in 5. With DLC characters they're almost certainly going to stick to characters that they know are going to sell.

Reaction Image RepositoryI mean, I think anything's possible at this stage, but Cult Classic characters seem to be more and more unlikely as DLC for Smash 4. Still, I say there's always next time and leave it at that.

I sure said that!I think they never said FF 7 Remake is a PS 4 exclusive. Just "play it first", right? RIGHT? RIGHT?
FF 7 Remake for NX!
Also Dragon Quest 7-8 are coming out... and these used to be Playstation releases...

"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-MaeSo, if Cloud's in Super Smash Bros., does that mean we'll be getting some artwork done by Final Fantasy artists?
"I squirm, I struggle, ergo I am. Faced with death, I am finally, truly alive."An idea popped into my mind if it hasn't been done already: on Cloud's character page, should we continue the wiki-wide Running Gag by saying he hails from the seventh entry in the {noun}-{verb}ingly popular Final Fantasy series?
EDIT: Somebody actually did it already under the entry for Guest Fighter. I'm happy.
