TSR's Super Smash Bros Thread|SWITCH HYPE TRAIN NOW BOARDING
Sorry, I was pre-New Year drinking when I posted, let me reiterate as a big fan of Mike Jones and Startropics.

Psychic powers and baseball cars an all.

WhE he had that ness dunt:

Ace pitch.

Alien wroSjv.

Olds cool weaken like sword and ace.

The main problem is that there is a very, VERY strong similarity to Ness going on here with psychic powers, a modern day character thrust into a plot revolving around mind-controlling aliens, usage of both Yo-yos and bats as weapons, etc. The problem is that the average gamer is going to approach a character like this and write it off as a character very similar to Ness and to Lucas,

What I was also saying is that the differences lie in certain applications of the character. For example, Mike is extremely sporty. His powerful moves revolve around being able to pitch well (He's an Ace Pitcher), and he uses items like baseball bats for swinging and sports shoes for kicking. However, he also gets access to more ancient weaponry like a morning star that functions basically like his Yoyo, and in the second  game he gets access to things like stone axes, katanas and items such as that for throwing.

Basically, there CAN be a way to make Mike a good character (my suggestion is always to have his item throwing be a super powerful ability), but in the mainstream eye he is going to be washed up by the popularity of Ness and Lucas, a franchise that is already more or less a niche in Nintendo series.
