Protoman, if only because, of the two, he's Nintendo exclusive. Well, the Battle Network one at least. Plus Battle chips would be pretty interesting to implement.

Isaac

Skull Kid

 

[Lusus]

Banjo & Kazooie
Protoman

along with Amaterasu the only ones i know, but Protoman IMO is better.

Last day to vote for the second round, folks! Get your ballots in if you haven't voted yet!

 

[Klippy]

The semi-finals have begun, my friends! In the second round, we had a Showdown first! We had our first LOCKOUT! Skull Kid obtained every, single vote and K.K. Slider had zero fans in the audience. Tonight, his guitar gently weeps.

SEMIFINALS TIME!

 

[Lusus]

Banjo & Kazooie

don't know the other 2.

 

[Austin]

Banjo & Kazooie
Skull Kid

Choosing between Isaac and Skull Kid was pretty tough.

 

[Sonata]

If it was anyone else, I'd definitely pick Skull Kid.

Banjo & Kazooie
Isaac

 

[machomuu]

Well...hmm...this one's actually tough.

In the case of Amaterasu and Banjo, I think I'm going to go Banjo. It's nothing against Amaterasu, who I would also like to see, but Banjo is more ingrained in Nintendo's history, despite the Rare drama. Probably moreso, however, is that I can see him as a character more than I can Amaterasu; he seems like he'd have more at his disposal.

As for Skull Kid vs. Isaac, I'm going Isaac for partially the same reasons. He seems like he'd be an interesting character should he be implemented, and as much as I'd love to see SK's final smash in this, I'd have to say that Isaac has more potential.

HERE'S TO ANOTHER SHOWDOWN LOSS FOR ME

 

[Necrum]

Banjo and Kazooie I guess mostly because I don't even know who the other option is
Skull Kid

 

[El Héroe Oscuro]

Banjo Kazooie and Skull Kid it is.

Skull Kid

:) Thanks everyone so far for voting. Everyone else, there's still two days left to cast a ballot!

Skull Kid

Sorry Ammy, but Banjo is more Nintendo than you. And Isaac would just be another sword-wielder.

 

[Klippy]

WARNING! CHALLENGER APPROACHING!

In our final battle, one of these Nintendo (or faux-Nintendo) juggernauts will come out on top to be crowned your Newcomer Showdown victor!

Reminder to all...the winner of the Showdown chooses next month's topic! Get to voting!

BANJO & KAZOOIE V. SKULL KID​

 

[machomuu]

And Isaac would just be another sword-wielder.

Would he? It'd be a real waste of potential if they ended up making him a character that relied on his sword for combat rather than his numerous abilities.

 

[Sonata]

There can be only one, and it's got to be the one who gave me nightmares as a child - as well as last week. +1 for Skull Kid.

 

[Entermaid]

This vote is nearly impossible if looking at these two characters.

I would be estatic to see Skull Kid...

But I am just imaging what the implications of including the Banjo and Kazooie series in the roster, could mean. It could signify a resurrection of the partnerships between Rare and Nintendo for a future Banjo Kazooie game. Perhaps Grunty and Mumbo Jumbo, and other characters might be welcomed in the next game if the series gains more traction. Not to mention, a Rare-Nintendo Banjo Kazooie game would be a dream come true!

I will go with Banjo and Kazooie .

 

[Night Watcher]

One point for Banjo & Kazooie.
