What Video Game Character do you want in Super Smash Bros?

Why does everyone (almost everyone) keep downing on FF characters? It should be fine, just don't overdo them...
Whoever suggested Isaac and Bomberman were definitely using their brains, at least in my opinion.
Isaac got a really crappy role in Brawl. Other than Earthbound (and Mario doesn't count, he's primarily a platformer), Golden Sun was Nintendo's only RPG, and a great one at that. Very unique, very stylish, cool art and graphics, unforgettable music...
Now, in RPGs, you could probably hear the same comments about many random games...
Bomberman's fighting style... think Snake+Olimar+Yoshi, then maybe Mario/Luigi in hand-to-hand, only much weaker because he's... much weaker in hand-to-hand.

On actually having characters in a Smash Bros. game, I've always wanted... well, Isaac, Bomberman, and Megaman. (He wouldn't necessarily HAVE to be a Samus clone!)

In addition to Isaac, from GS I'd like to see any other of his party members; most likely Felix, since he could be a moveset clone.

Also, does anyone else think SSB could use more villains, or to any extent anime characters?

...

Bomberman's Moveset:
B=Rolling Bomb; a normal bomb throw but if you hold it it gradually becomes 4 bombs.
Side-B=Jet Dash. He uses his Bomber Jet, a green jetpack, to dash forward and smash foes.
Up-B=Bomber Jet. Uses the Bomber Jet to rise into the air.
The Bomber Jet is more like R.O.B.'s Up-B rather than Diddy Kong's; Diddy's sucks!
Down-B=Bomb Lay. Super simple, he softly sets down a bomb. In the air, he drops it straight down.
Based off of Bomberman Hero for N64.

um...............

POKEMON is an rpg and as a franchise it has the most playable characters in smash (jiggly, pikachu, lucario, squirtle, ivysaur, charizard)

A mii would have been excellent. The only problem would be that they'd have to make it look really generic which would be a little lame because the whole point of a mii is that you choose what it looks like (that said, though, they could get away with totally different looking miis for the colourswaps which would help a little).

Tom Nook would have been pretty cool.
 
i was pulling for tom nook so bad. he is probably one of my favorite nintendo characters of all time. thanks to him, the phrase 'thanks much' is part of my every day speech.

the runway 5 should have been an assist trophy. they could hit you with their funky bus.
 
Celes - FFVI
Link - ALTTP
Mii - Wii
Setzer - FFVI
Goomba - Mario =D
Mario Racer - Mario Kart... lawl.
Conker - Conker's bad fur day... HAHAHAHAHA

-Dark Magician
-Kuriboh (imagine being able to explode 0_0)
-Maybe a Yu-gi-oh! character (like the Pokemon Trainer, switching in/out)

Die.  Seriously.

YGO has Jump Super Stars.  It doesn't need to be in Brawl, or anything like it.

Geno Peoplez^^

I forgot all about Geno...Can't they make an update or something!? lol
Alright, alright... I've got some stuff to say! I did indeed forget about Pokemon, primarily because it's not a really traditional-style RPG (which isn't a bad thing) and, quite frankly, Pikachu irks me. Not 100% sure why. Pika and Yoshi. Don't work for me in Smash...

Next, what's up with Mii and Geno? (Note: I've never played SMRPG, so maybe I'm missing something here, but) WHAT ON EARTH could possibly be so great about him that practically EVERYBODY (excluding me) wants him in a Smash Bros.!?!?!? Now, I know what some of you are thinking: "Oh, yeah? Well, what makes Bomberman/Isaac so great that you want him in SSB!?!?!?"
Well, it's an argument... but I must say, It's sort of feeble. Who was he, anyway? (I've heard so many mentions of him...) The bad guy? A late party member? The living dummy (he looks like a puppet)? What??? :crazy:
And as for Mii, they have no fighting ability except maybe in baseball, boxing... wait, I sort of see what you're talking about... anyway, I personally don't really like Miis either. Think they're kind of retarded in some things.
Other than that, character away.

AND, ON THE OTHER HAND...

If we're talking about unusual SSB characters, has anyone ever heard of Super Smash Flash (Parts 1 & 2)? Anyone? Go to www.mcleodgaming.com to find out more. Awesome (though simplistic and erratic at some points) game! Love it! No, seriously. Go to that site...!

Thank  you,  that  is  all.
 
You need to go play SMRPG then, Geno is just an awesome character with cool attacks and stuff. Geno is actually a doll possessed by a spirit sent to find broken star-shaped pieces to the Star Road...I don't feel like explaining the rest of the story, look it up.

Hmm... I guess I concede. Oh, and F.Y.I., there are THOUSANDS OF CHARACTERS
old and new
heard-of and unheard-of
here and there
with "cool attacks and stuff". Sorry, but that was a bit of a lame argument... but I'll go see about him soon, within today.

Oh, about Bomberman, forgot to mention: his Final Smash would be Skull Bomb!
The Skull Bomb is a bomb, small or large, red or normal color (black/blue), with a skull decal on it. The explosion is massive; think a bit bigger than Luigi's Negative Zone in Brawl. It's a very brief attack, and in reality (in the series, not in actual reality) it's the same as a normal bomb, just bigger flame. Bomberman (series) is primarily 1-hit kills, 2 on tougher enemies.

EDIT: Just very briefly looked up Geno, on some random site. They say he has strength and skill for SMRPG. I'll back down for now, but you haven't heard the last of me.
And he is UGLY a H***!!!

EDIT2: Okay, what kind of response was that? "Go play SMRPG"!? What am I, a money source that can detect games from afar and travel at light speed to go buy them? Or did you expect me to download the ROM? Eheh... well, still, though. If I had the chance to just "go play SMRPG", I probably would have. But, school just got back in, and when it comes to RPGs, if I were to go buy an old one, I'd shoot for FF5/6. I played each one for a while, but I never got to finish them, and all I remember is that I really liked them...
whoops, irrelevant tangent.
Say, on SSB, who would like to have RPG Maker music in the selection? (raises hand really fast)
I mean, this is RMXP.org, right? If you're here, you've probably got an RPG Maker. If not, why are you even here...?
 
Two suggestions from me. Keep in mind I don't own a Wii and haven't played Brawl yet. I have played a ton of 64 and Melee. Both of these characters have appeared on Nintendo systems and are plausible characters.

A Moogle riding a Chocobo- Final Fantasy series. It would be a very fast moving character with attacks such as a very fast kamikaze charge attack (like the FF7 summon) and Chocobo's peck attack, which has a surprisingly long reach. Using UP + B would allow the player to quickly take aim and launch the Moogle into the air in any direction they choose, allowing for quick escape from ring outs and/or a very damaging ranged attack.

Megaman- Megaman 1-9. His buster gun works similar to Samus' gun. Normal shots are weaker than Samus' but have a very high rate of fire. The charged shot is slightly weaker than Samus' but travels WAY faster. Megaman is a small fighter and moves pretty fast (at about the same speed as Fox), but is also extremely lightweight. It doesn't take much to send him flying across the stage.

Megaman...

Megaman- A good idea since Smash Bros. came out. I think a couple of your details could be a little off, though...

Moogle on Chocobo- What the heck!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

(But hey, food for thought. I personally don't like that idea though.)

Megaman, Protoman, Bass, Megaman X, Zero.

Megaman's great and all, but let's not get carried away...!

Hey, what am I saying? That was fairly well balanced. Of course, the "officials" (real SSB makers) would probably (if at all) just make Megaman and give him color swaps/costume changes/alternate palettes to match those characters.

The lack of Earthbound in this topic makes it fail.

What the hell!? You just, like, dissed everybody who posted in this thread. Curse you! It is not the topic that fails, but it is you who fail to understand that
A) Not everyone likes Earthbound
B) Not everyone has played Earthbound
C) People might not have gotten around to stating it yet
D) Not everyone wants more Earthbound stuff

Personally, I think more Earthbound characters would be a good thing, but then again, who's left that's of worth? (Never played Earthbound) Also, that's of worth in both ability and name... Seriously, who wants to have crap on the character selection screen?
