[Nintendo] Super Smash Brothers: Developed by Namco Bandai

This has probably already been said, but in SSB4, they should have MM Link with all 3 masks and it would work just like Pokemon Trainer in SSBB, where you would pick the one you want to use before hand and can switch between them with down B. Their movesets would be perfect (for instance, Deku Link can use down B while flying to drop a deku nut, or R would be his wooden shield, Goron could roll using his side B, Zora could use boomerangs with his B move, there's so many options they could use! For their taunts, they would pull out their unique instrument and you could play songs on them.

Plus, this idea would be more likely if MM gets a remake/re-release on 3DS.

I respectfully disagree.

We're probably getting Rosalina. Ninty has a massive galaxy obsession right now (Queen Bee in MK WTF?), and all the Kirby characters will be staying.

Also, the chances of getting ghirahim are low. Maybe an assist trophy, but he was in ONE game FFS, which fans have continuously complained about.

Could stand to add a few, as well. I would be all over a playable Gim or Knuckle Joe. Or that Waddle Dee with a spear.

I'd like a playable Mr. Bright & Mr. Shine, cooperating akin to Ice Climbers in a more elaborated way.

Guys, we're overlooking something, something important!

Who should we have for Metroid characters? It's about freaking time that we have someone OTHER than Samus.

Because there are so many wonderful characters to choose from.

Personally, though, I'd opt for replacing Zero Suit Samus with Fusion Suit Samus. Add speed and decrease weight and attack power in a way that makes as much sense (armor plating still busted off, just now the innards of the suit are left) without having to put up with the ♥♥♥♥ing "zero suit" insult to the character and nonsensical laserwhipgun. Varia Samus can be classic Super Metroid style attacks and animations we know and love but Fusion Samus could have the new anime-style combat from Other M.

^We have...

-Ridley
-Dark Samus
-Gandrayda
-Rundas
-Ghor
-Sylux
-Weavel
-Kanden
-Trace
-Spire
-The purple guy that turns into a top

That's be great! Also, when she uses her final smash, a bunch of X could come onto the screen, latch onto Samus, and her suit parts could fall off forming the Fusion suit. It kinda makes sense minus the doctors and surgeons.

I call one of the Hunters for SSB4.

Probably the Metroid Prime 3 hunters, and you start out with Gandrayda. Because in the game, she can morph into Rundas and Ghor, it'll be like the Pokemon Trainer system. Rundas has ice attacks, Ghor has lasers, and Gandrayda has physical attacks.

I think it'd be better if that's just an alternate costume for Samus. Otherwise, it would just take up space.

I don't know, her moves are pretty different from Samus's. She can fly, she rapid fires instead of firing single shots, and overall has an exaggerated set of moves in general with all of the phazon. Besides, her smash could be turning into the Metroid Prime herself.

I've wanted for some time a Mokujin-like character. That is to say, a character that has no fighting style of his own, but rather borrows the styles (and sometimes shapes) of other characters in the game.

The SSB series even has a few possible options already for such a character:

Fighting Polygon, Fighting Wireframe, and Fighting Alloy. Fighting Polygon might make the most sense, since there was originally one for each playable character (whereas there are only two Wireframes and four Alloys).

However, I personally have another character in mind for this sort of thing: Sandbag. I even went so far as to create a tentative backstory for it.

After serving as a practice dummy for the other characters for so long, Sandbag decides that it would like to help them train more effectively (Sandbag's trophies state something along the lines of it not feeling pain from attacks and being happy to help the other characters).

During a particularly vigorous Home-Run Contest, Sandbag is launched into the Smash Ball factory where it inadvertently absorbs a copious amount of "Smash Energy". This energy, couple with Sandbag's comprehensive knowledge of each character's fighting style (gained first hand by being pummeled) and its desire to help them train, gave Sandbag the ability to mimic the other fighters by altering its size and shape.

(For an idea of what I imagine Sandbag looking like when it's mimicking a humanoid character picture Mokujin (linked above) but have his wooden segments made out of sandbags.)


...Sorry for going off on that tangent >_>

Alright. You are aware of this attack, right?


Why can't we do that with the B button?



Okay. Think about taking "Special" attacks and being able to "Smash" them.

Sort of like Samus' missile attack? Tilt forward-B is the weaker missile that can home in on enemies; Smash forward-B is the more powerful, faster Super missile that travels in a straight line.

If I'm not gonna have my Galaxy 3, I can settle for Rosalina as a Smash Bro. The idea excites me!

lol

♥♥♥♥er's got style, you can't deny it.

I hope they add smash functions to the special attacks. That or fix the up-tilt function on Wii remote sideways controls. It's wonky.

Rosalina is almost certainly not going to be in, when both Toad and Bowser Jr. have been a lot more prominent and important in recent Mario games. If Mario is going to see a 5th rep, it will be one of those two (my personal feeling is that it'll be Bowser Jr., but I could see it being Toad).

I think Rundas would be a cool character to play as. Ridley works too. It would be nice with some other Zelda characters as well replacing Toon Link and Ganondorf (I know Ganondorf is an important part of Zelda, but he has been absent for a while now) - I'd like Zant or Ghirahim.

If YOU can't name him, then he's not famous enough. Dark Samus could be cool- a pseudo-clone like Ike and Marth perhaps. Similar basis for the moves, but generally different.

Also, while I don't WANT Rosalina, I still think we're going to get her. Nintendo still has that massive galaxy boner.

(I'm still not over queen bee!)

Ike is not a pseudo-clone. He is not any kind of a clone. He's got one move in common with Marth. One.
