Y'know


Solink had an awesome idea in the thread for the third party characters. It had a lot of thanks.


So let's just say everyone agrees with it.
So, we need 3 more third party characters?

Quote from Cave Story?
Marco from Metal Slug?
Kunio from the Kunio-kun series? (Main protagonist of the River City Ransom games, that's where I know him from, he's known as Alex in the U.S version)

Would any of those work?
SNK is a HUUUUUUGE stretch and I don't think indie games should count for representation.
I guess I kind of get the SNK thing, but I thought of Marco because the WHOLE Metal Slug series was released on the Wii with the Anthology. Then you've got Metal Slug Advance, and 7, which was released on the DS.

And Cave Story is getting a WiiWare release, so I figured Quote might be a valid character choice.
It was also released on the PS2 and PSP.
I'd personally love to play as Quote since he could use King's sword and the different guns he gets. But I don't think it would make much sense for him to be in Smash.

Yeah, and the majority of modern Sonic releases are available on multiple platforms. I didn't really stress that point as a Nintendo exclusive thing, it was more just that the whole series CAN be played on the Wii. I dunno, I feel like it counts for something.

And Bazzoka:

Would WiiWare actually count though? Even though he's coming to WiiWare, he still feels like an indie character that has nothing to do with the Wii.

EDIT:
Or Nintendo for that matter. But then again, that can be argued for a lot of other characters too... :V
WiiWare shouldn't count at ALL, it's not hard to get a WiiWare license and devkit.

Sad
At this moment, even Terry Bogard wouldn't be a far stretch...

For the record, King of Fighers, Fatal Fury. Both from SNK Playmore.

Konami: Snake/Simon
Sega: Sonic/Billy Hatcher or Vectorman or something that isn't sonic related
Capcom: Megaman/Viewtiful Joe
Square: Geno/Black Mage
Namco: KOS-MOS/Klonoa
As awesome as that line-up sounds, I still think we should let 3rd parties only have one playable ref. Also why put Geno with Square? Yes they helped make SMRPG but he hasn't appeared in any non-Mario Square games. So I say keep him in the Mario-verse.

Also has Ton decided on having Rayman in? I think he'd be good enough for this game. I posted a moveset somewhere in the first few pages:

I think it's be argued enough that Geno belongs to Square as seen in the credits of Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga. And I doubt when he's been used really matters. There could be a character that I don't know of that hasn't been used in 15 years and never made an appearance besides that one game they were in but that character would still belong to those who made him/her/it.
Ton REALLY wants Geno. Its quite obvious. However he really does belong to Square.
Saying Geno isn't a Square-Enix / third party character is as much as a Travisty as wanting Travis over Samurai Goroh.

So, subsequently, we already filled Square-Enix' spot.
