Ridley is never going to happen for real, though. :/

For big IP, more Metroid and Zelda representation are the only flaws in the roster IMO, 2 new Mario characters for 0 Zelda and Metroid characters is disappointing. Besides etablished IP, we only need some new representant from the Rhythm Heaven or Golden Sun franchise for example. The roster is almost perfect seriously.
Anyone wanna play ?

some input lag boney
Nah, besides the obvious Mario mainstays there are pretty much no recurring characters in the series. It'd be cool if there was another character to pull like they did with Rosalina:Galaxy, but eh. Even if there was another good choice, you'd lose the entire helper mechanic without Mario.
I don't disagree that having 3 Marios would be silly, but that's the Doc's fault.

Don't blame Doc for having more personality than a cardboard cutout.

Sorry about the lag, I'm South American
Yeah, it's not great, if you wanna take a break just let me know

My vote would go to Dimentio. He had lots of neat powers that could be well-represented in Smash, his design is really cool, and his
final boss theme
In retrospect, he was one of the few great things about Super Paper Mario.
Rawk Hawk could be another good (if considerably obscure) one!

I didn't know it was possible to like Super Paper Mario more than The Thousand-Year Door. I can't fathom it.
But hey, different strokes!
I'm still so bad with ZSS
If I'm not able to grab you, I'm helpless!
This is the reason I can't play ZSS. If I miss a grab then its just so depressing watching her stand there like an idiot.

Hey oidisco, due to me being lazy in uploading and recording, I just sent the replays to you lol
Cool, I haven't been using Zelda too much the last few days so I don't have anything new to send right now. I have been trying to use more Phantom and so far it's going well.

There are people who like Sticker Star the most out of the entire series. Anything is possible.
Get rid of Dr. Mario if he is in the way of Paper Mario. We have two Marths, and that is a character from a much less popular series than Paper Mario. I think Paper Mario is a series that deserves at least one character. It has sold more than a lot of the series represented in Smash.

How about we keep Dr. Mario and tell Paper Mario to fuck off
Sounds like a plan to me.
He's my secondary after Samus. Hard to say what I do different I guess I'm more aggressive with fair, full hop fast falls. While you rely to heavily on nair. Try empty jumping to grabs for mix ups as well!That was fun Boney, lag sucks but it was cool anyway.

Well, yeah. I wasn't being literal.
And I'd fully support replacing Dr. Mario with Paper Mario for all the reasons you listed. Dr. Mario is still the one single character in Smash Wii U/3DS's roster who stands out to me as being a silly/needless inclusion. It literally is just Mario in a doctor's outfit. Should've been an alt costume! (Yeah yeah, different mechanics from regular Mario, I know. Still!)
Let's go! Open a room, I'll be right there!
Saw your edit, I have a room open.

Wow...
This is not true.I'm still so bad with ZSS
I'm so glad that I learned how to down-b spike with ZSS
That's because I can grab you. If you play defensively and spot-dodge alot, I'm helpless!

Yeah, I've felt them too. Not too easy to control Pikachu's recovery online!
Falco has a way higher base jump and double junp though.

I can't stand games with a slow start and that second chapter is a damn chore. Same reason I haven't played much of The Wind Waker.

I feel like once a character is in, they should just keep them. Same reason I want Pichu back
.I know, but it still just strikes me as odd.
I tried a little too hard for that edge-guard!
You'd be surprised at just how often that works. I did the exact same thing to Nairo when I played him on For Glory and I did it a few times at the tournament I was at recently!
Anyways, good games dude! I find your Fox pretty tricky to fight since he has so many good combos and kill setups.
Out of curiosity, is my Zelda better now compared to when we fought last? I feel like out of all my characters she's improved the most in the last few weeks.
Smh, people hating on Paper Mario in this thread. Would be a great character rep and not play anything like Mario does. If he got in he probably wouldn't even share the Mario series logo anymore, kind of like Wario/DK/Yoshi.
I would've voted for him if I didn't have to vote for Ice Climbers.

Yeah, your Zelda is getting great dude. Your follow ups are on point, your Up-B aiming is amazing. You read/predicted rolls and punished with the ending hitbox, that shouldn't even work!
However, down-B doesn't usually work, only time it hit me was when I misjudged how high the sword would swing. And keep in mind Fox can reflect it (even though I mever got the chance)!

You can vote for multiple characters.
Good idea.
Good idea.
Count Ridley out and save yourself the pain. I don't think he could be properly balanced, anyway. Just too big.
Sweet, thanks! I spent a lot of time working on those up-b punishes simply because I'm not confident enough to go for the elevator, but I still wanted to use up-b in some way since it's such a strong move. I'm slowly trying to work the elevator back into my playstyle, but I need to get better at jump-cancelling out of shield first.
And for down-b, I usually use it just as a mindgame thing. It's not so much about putting on damage or edge-guarding as it is to have people be aware of the threat. I use it enough to condition people into recovering back on-stage at the angle I want and then go for the edge-guard, usually a dair or up-air depending on where they've been going.
It doesn't always work out super well, but I have fun trying!

When even Karst the villain-lover doesn't think Ridley will ever happen you know you've got a lost cause.
That said, Paper Mario is also never going to happen because he's not even the most important side-series in the Mario franchise. He gets second billing in the upcoming Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam even though he's the third major character because M&L is just a better Mario RPG series.
Oh yeah. I went there. Paper Mario has 64 and TTYD, but M&L has every game in the series except Partners in Time (I don't like baby characters and hated how many of them were in Mario Kart 8.) And for how much everyone praises TTYD, there's pacing problems in that game (like the whole goddamn second chapter and backtrack city with Vivian ugghhhhhh).
On that subject Waluigi will never happen either.
Ice Climbers died for the 3DS's sins. May they make their glorious non-chaingrabbing return on Super Smash Bros. for NX.
Blunder Red will forever be a trophy because TW101 only sold 100 copies (I bought it full price so don't look at me.)
You will all learn to love the Doc in every incarnation. I'm not even into his original game but that fair tho
I don't get what people see in K. Rool, original DKC trilogy was part of my childhood but I thought he was a dumb as fuck final boss and he never seemed threatening, especially when he was practically treated like a joke at the end of DK64. But hey, more villains and heavy characters are fine by me.
I support Black Shadow on the sole merit of we need more F-Zero anything.
Vote for Wolf because he's better than some lame Pokemon Trainer that only fully evolves one starter and leaves another halfway while I don't even know what Squirtle's deal is.
There, I think I've managed to antagonize everyone on here except my fellow Doc fans who understand.

At some point we'll know about a new Super Smash Bros being in development. I feel like K Rool is going to be THE ballot character among 2 or 3 others. After he's in though, who will people rally behind? I have a feeling once people feel like the slate is clean, the Ridley supporters will come back. After Pyrosphere and Sakurai's words it's very easy to understand why the majority of his fans just gave up. Still this is video games! When you want something you beg for it and beg for it until the will of the people is so strong the devil himself couldn't stop it from existing.
Other than your weird love for Doc I agree with every single thing you just said.
But Paper Mario would still make a better smash character than M&L Mario and either would be a million times better than Cosplay Mario.

Mario and Luigi is the better series. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is the best game out of either series though

But how many non-Mario characters would it be better than? That is the real question.

Good to know we have smart people on here. Now all we need is for Beef to offer up an inflammatory and controversial opinion that is sure to offend someone and everything will be settled.
Doc is basically "let's bring a Melee character to the future" in a great way. The only problem is that they didn't make everyone else's recoveries Melee-tier.
I look forward to Wolf jump-cancelling his down-B just because.
