Every time I see that Miiverse post referenced, I want to personally find that kid so I can give him a loving but firm bonk on the forehead.

I actually think the Wonderful 101 team would make a good assist trophy.
With that said, I don't see why they are deserving of a spot based off one exclusive game lol.
It's not just "one exclusive game", though. Platinum are developing the Wonderful 101 but Nintendo own it. Wonderful 101 is a new Nintendo franchise and Smash Bros. is about Nintendo franchises so...
They make about as much sense as Captain Falcon (who only had two games at the release of the first Smash), Ice Climbers (who've only had one ever) or Wii Fit Trainer, or other suggested newcomers like a Xenoblade rep.

Well hey, if they need to have been touched by Miyamoto's God Hand or sold 40 million copies to be considered I guess we'll never see most of Nintendo's newer and developing franchises in Smash Bros. I look forward to Goomba, Moblin and Waddle Dee joining the roster instead.

Rhythm Heaven ;-;
Erm. Sakurai.
Sakurai could have added characters from "newer and developing franchises" like Golden Sun, Custom Robo, Drill Dozer, and Starfy to Brawl, but all we got was Olimar. I'm only trying to suggest that you keep your expectations in check. Just because something's new doesn't mean it's important.Well hey, if they need to have been touched by Miyamoto's God Hand or sold 40 million copies to be considered I guess we'll never see most of Nintendo's newer and developing franchises in Smash Bros.

I never said Miyamoto was a criterion for being in Smash -- it's an indication that a game will probably continue to be important to Nintendo. There's no way Wonderful 101 is on equal footing (in any context) with F-Zero or Wii Fit.I know Sakurai is the Smash man. I was talking about Ryce using "Shigeru Miyamoto" as criterion for a character being eligible for Smash.

F-Zero - multiple games, Nintendo EAD, Shigeru Miyamoto
Ice Climber - Nintendo R&D1, included specifically because Sakurai wanted an NES character
Wii Fit - multiple games, Nintendo EAD, Shigeru Miyamoto, has sold over 40 million copies
I'd say those properties are infinitely more significant to Nintendo's history than Wonderful 101.
Is there a site or something when all of this are compiled?
I googled and found nothing
EDIT: WTF I found this xD

holy shit where did you find this
Are we seriously going back to the "this character definitively won't be in because of reasons" part of the cycle again

I feel like a lot of retro stages will be DLC content, i.e. "N64 Pack", "Melee Pack 1", etc.

And someone said Captain Falcon can be replaced. Smash was the best thing to happen to Falcon and I don't think anyone with a sane mind would want him gone.
Oh god they could charge $5 a stage and I'd still buy every one.
I stand by it. Sakurai could never hope to achieve what fans have.
Well then, you're insane.![]()
You are, if you think any of that actually represents the character as he's actually potrayed in Smash![]()
oh dear god, if rayman is in i'm out.
not really but that would be disgusting.
I'm trying to think of Wonder Red's Brawl equivalent -- Isaac, maybe? Basically, a character that isn't likely at all, but the online community convinces itself that the character is a shoo-in and acts like it's a tragedy that they didn't make the cut. You guys are only setting yourselves up for inevitable disappointment.
Established franchises are safe bets for new characters. There hasn't been a second-party series truly worth representing since Fire Emblem was introduced in Melee. Wonderful 101, Sin and Punishment, Custom Robo, Captain Rainbow, Chibi-Robo!... they're all small-time. I know I'm mostly alone in feeling this way, though. It's just that I'd be very surprised to see a new playable franchise introduced that isn't EAD, R&D/SPD, or third-party.
xenoblade characters would be the only characters with only one game i would accept. but only because the game was so bloody good.

Ugh, Rayman. I don't want him in after what happened between with Ubisoft.

Huh, what's wrong with Captains representation in Smash? Lol. He ain't goin' nowhere, and is fine the way he is. I can see Ganondorf's representation being more of an argument.
WAT?!
The problem being the he's a Falcon clone rather than having a move set based on his stuff in Zelda games, not his being in Smash.
WAT?!
