Do not waste your vote on an obscure character (Ex: Mike Jones), a post-Smash 4 character (Ex: Inkling), a third-party character (Ex: Rayman), or an already deconfirmed character (Ex: Ridley).

We have third party characters in the game already so there is a chance we could get some more.
Which Impa are you thinking of? I hope it'll be Hyrule Warriors Impa if she gets chosen.

I'll be Nominating:

Blaziken
Sora from KH
Krystal from Star Fox
and Dixie Kong

Don't waste your votes on Ridley or K.Rool. Use the poll for characters that dont get enough recognition and raise awareness. I'm pretty sure Sakurai knows about Ridley and K.Rool already.

Voted Chorus Kids.

Don't waste your votes on Ridley or K.Rool. Use the poll for characters that dont get enough recognition and raise awareness. I'm pretty sure Sakurai knows about the demand for Ridley and K.Rool already. (and why they'll never get in :V )

Voted Chorus Kids.

Cura April 2nd, 2015 10:22 AM

I already voted and that is Princess Daisy. I don't care if folk think I am wasting my vote. I really thinks she deserves some more love since she was thrusted into the background character position a while back. Hell, according to polls, a lot of gamers in Japan want her in Smash 4 as well, so surprises.

Except Sakurai already set a rule that a third-party rep had to be a "big deal" in order to get in. Characters like Professor Layton and Shovel Knight aren't even in the same ranks as Sonic, Mega Man, Snake, and Pac-Man due to being too recent.

Well now that I think about it, the reason why the other Zelda characters are still using their TP designs is because neither Sheik nor Ganondorf appeared in Skyward Sword, so having either Skyward Sword or Hyrule Warriors Impa would out of place with the rest of the cast.

I'll be Nominating:

Blaziken Already in the game as a background character in the Kalos League.
Sora from KH Half of his rights is owned by Disney. Also, look back at my above statement about third-parties.
Krystal from Star Fox Japan isn't too keen on Krystal. Only Wolf.
and Dixie Kong

That's not going to stop the Kutthroats from Smashboards to let their voices heard. You really need to stop with your bias against him and his supporters.

Aven April 2nd, 2015 4:24 PM

It's impossible to waste your vote since you can vote as much as you like. They're not electing a character based on amount of votes, that would be stupid. They didn't even take your name, and they're letting you vote multiple times because they only want good reasons for putting that character in.
If you're voting just to add a vote to that person, they won't see it any differently then one person voting twice.

If you don't have a valid reason to vote, then there won't be a point in voting at all.

Kameken April 2nd, 2015 5:04 PM

I voted three times.

Viridi, because it'd be cool to see what they come up with for her, and her final smash would obviously be reset bomb, which has some really cool possibilities.

K. Rool, because we need more villains and Ridley's not getting in.

Sceptile, because I saw the idea somewhere else and thought it was cool.

Spoiler:
Yes, I know Sceptile and Viridi won't be considered due to their games having too many characters already.

You know I have yet to nominate (it's more of a nomination than a vote) Blaziken but I'm glad I have not. I think Sceptile could work out as the Grass starter Pokémon rep as we got Charizard for Fire and Greninja for Water. Sceptile also stands the best chance as it's Bipedal and all of the player characters are bipedal except for Dog Hunt and R.O.B. (kind of). Plus it'll promote Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire (in a way)! Btw if the Kalos starters get Megas I see Greninja's Final Smash model being updated to one of it's Mega to promote the new games, plus to be like Lucario, Charzard, and Mewtwo, (and Sceptile if added).

SnowpointQuincy April 2nd, 2015 8:09 PM

I voted for Issac (Golden Sun) There are a bunch of people with swords already, so his move set should focus on Psynergy and Djinn effects.

As much as I want to feel happy about this, Banjo & Kazooie are just an empty shell of their former selves, especially how no one likes their new redesigns.

I'd love to see Banjo and Kazooie come back home to a Nintendo console, but the chances are a little low. But who knows!

Anything goes as long as it's a video game character.

You just had to say it. (note: you might want to lower the volume near the end of the video)


Meanwhile, /r/smashbros has made a poll two days ago on which character redditors voted at the fighter ballot. The poll ended and these were the top 15 picks (from the top left to the bottom right):

Waluigi is sadly a nope due to his (assist trophy).
Splatoon Girl is a bit on the lower side due to her recent appearance (too new).
Paper Mario most likely is a nope, due to both Mario and Doc Mario.
Everyone else though has a good chance, a very good chance of getting in. I personally would love to see Shantae in all honestly.

Also, where is Daisy? I am sad now. :(

It's not official. And Chrom can't be a playable character in Smash 4 since he's part of Robin's Final Smash.

Like my previous post and Zekrom said, this is not an official poll result . It's done by /r/smashbros, and it's suppose to give an idea of what redditors are voting at the ballot. While yes Ridley and Waluigi are already in the game in a non-playable role like Chrom, reddit polls show they're more popular than him. Of course that doesn't leave the fact that the one who voted for them are either still in denial or have no idea how Sakurai's character picks work.

Cura April 7th, 2015 6:57 AM

I think a lot of the redditors are in denial or just aren't thinking straight after seeing that listing they made. Some of them are possible as such with King K, since he is overwhelmingly wanted.

I cringe when I see someone tell me that they voted for Goku though, my mind just freezes and thinks, 'You have to kidding me'. (> ~ <)

Edit: I got something. For you all
King K is getting ready for Smash. (Warning!: Flashing Colours)

Here's an interesting tidbit: http://mynintendonews.com/2015/04/06/theres-five-blank-spots-on-the-super-smash-bros-character-lineup/

If you click on any of the character profiles from the official website and scroll down to the very bottom, where it shows icons to the other characters, you see five blank slots after Mewtwo. A lot of people are speculating that those spots are for the DLC characters, and since one of those spots will be taken by Lucas, it is believed that we'll be getting 4 DLC characters from the ballot, most likely from the top 4 requested.

Those slots were empty before Mewtwo was even announced, its just open space put there to avoid clashing of themes. However, now the slots are being used and it works out fine. It could be just 5 or possibly just like Mario Kart 8, a new row will appear at the bottom.

Aven April 8th, 2015 6:10 PM

Or it could just be there and not be used. They are just slots on the website guys, not the actual game.

It would be funny if Sakurai put them there on purpose just to troll us. It wouldn't be his first time doing something like that.

If it was a trolling situation, most folk would be extremely unhappy with him. I remember seeing an article somewhere (its gone now :() that was actually a small group of users wanting Sakurai to be replaced because he isn't a true professional in the gaming industry due to all of his joking and troll attempts on the gamers who play Smash. When I read and saw this small article, I asked myself, 'Who are you to judge someone, *******?' I mean seriously, we all know that Mr. Sakurai has had a long road with the Smash Brothers series, even changing his own life up to make it a great series, if that isn't the true professional standard of being a willing and active game developer, then what the hell is? Also, who are they to judge him as well? He can fun like anyone else, he damn well earned it because of all the work it did. If he wants to troll and that is how he gets his laughs, I think he deserves it along with the team that helped him make the games.

(On an unrelated note: There has been some issues with double-posting. It seems to happen on certain computers for me. But when I'm using my desktop, there is no issues. It might be your internet connection causing the double-posting.)

Nah April 9th, 2015 9:26 AM

@everyone wondering about the double posting: It's a known issue with threads that have accumulated a lot of pages. Idk if it can be fixed or not and it's a little random on if it'll duplicate your posts or not. It apparently will not dupe your post if you quote someone or use the Go Advanced post reply thing instead of Quick Reply.
