Super Smash Bros Wishlist!

[MaxiP62]

Hey guys, with the new Smash Bros coming out in about 3 years or so, what do you think should be added/changed/kept the same?

Personally:
A few more first-party characters (Magnus from KI! Link with Wolf transformation, aswell as Skyward Link instead of the usual Adult/Kid combination)
A couple more third-party characters (With stuff like this, we need to be sensible. Viewtiful Joe? Raiden?)
Longer replays
Improved stage editor
More challenges (Like in Brawl and Kid Icarus)
Character levelling (This is pretty much confirmed)
New levels (Aswell as a load from the previous games. Mario Kart style)
New items (Tanooki suit? Blue shells?)
Some new music (Also, maybe some special Smash Bros remixes?)
New social interaction (Voice chat, invites, sending replays and screenshots)
Streetpass and Spotpass support (Levels, replays, screenshots, like on Brawl)

What else do you guys think?

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Better online multiplayer.

I can guarantee that if Brawl's online component was more then a tacked on 2 minute match, I'd still be playing it today.

No tripping. Tripping was the stupidest thing ever.

No Final Smashes. They wouldn't be so bad, but some characters *cough*Sonic&StarFox*cough* have Final Smashes which are just so much better than any other character's.

Amaterasu and Viewtiful Joe

 

[Nazulu]

Same mechanics (or at least familiar) as Melee's, use of Gamecube controller or hopefully something just as good, no fucking tripping, some of the strategies back like side-dodge and less focus on cinematics so everything else works perfectly (I just want the game play and design better this time). This would probably be enough for me to buy the WiiU.

 

[wintercoat]

Leon Kennedy, used similar to Solid Snake, but lighter, with a RE4 stage. Extra points if you can pick the suit as an alternate costume. Shit was pimp.

 

[ZehMadScientist]

Balanced Final Smashes. Seriously, some were ridiculously overpowered.

A good online multiplayer mode. I mean, isn't multiplayer the main selling point of SSB?

More characters/ improved characters (Give Mario his spin attack back!). Surprise me.

And please, stop it with the same character in a different (heavier) jacket. Fox, Falco and Wolf had basically the same moveset and the same final smash.

 

[Plucky]

Personally, in terms of characters there should be

1st Party
- Gooey or a/the (Bandana) Waddle Dee
- 0's Humanoid form
- Toon Zelda? (Alt form would be a Phantom)
- King K. Rool
- King Hippo (!?!?)
- Rosalina?
- Wart or Tatanga
- Captain Syrup?

3rd Party Characters.

- Geno (not as a fanboy thing, but mostly because of how much involvement Nintendo has had with Square Enix, with the assistance of translating IX, releasing a few Sports games and even Fortune Street)
- Professor Layton...maybe?
- Erdick, Dragonlord or a Slime (same reason as the Geno example)
- Or possibly even Gilgamesh, assuming that the next Smash Bros is still set in the same "universe" as Brawl, with the explanation that the Subspace Bombs still left sporadic Voids, he'll wield Swords from various Nintendo series alongside some of the more famous FF swords.

I highly doubt Dragon Quest characters would be considered in a main release Nintendo game, mostly due to Akira Toriyama's involvement with the art, making people feel that his characters would be there due to the more widely known Dragonball series. (and it's sequels Z and GT)

 

[Ordinaryundone]

I would really like items and weapons, as well as level hazards, to become more important to the game and metagame as a whole. I always felt they were what set SSB apart from other, stronger fighting game entries, and it always pains me to see people insist on playing without them on boring levels because it makes it "more legitimate". Seriously people, just embrace the chaos and have fun with a series that was never meant to be like other fighting games.

As for characters, Fawful, I guess? Also Isaac/Felix from Golden Sun, and an Advance Wars rep. Also, don't be afraid to go for characters who don't use the standard sword/gun weapon set. The wackier the better!

 

[Dryk]

This would probably be enough for me to buy the WiiU.

The WiiU doesn't support Gamecube controllers, which makes me really worried for Smash Bros. I hate the PS/Classic Controller control stick layout with a passion.

Also I'll be happy as long as it's less floaty and you can actually combo again. Trying to hit someone more than once in Brawl was a liability more often than not.

 

[DigitalAtlas]

A co-op campaign similar to New Super Mario Bros, but as a brawler. The return of a shorter and more fun adventure more. Last but not least, challenge.

As for characters, LESSEE SOME SHULK! Saki and Ghirahim are also a must.

 

[Tartarga]

I'd love to see some The World Ends With You characters in Smash Bros. I know they're already making an appearance in Kingdom Hearts but I won't be happy until I can beat the shit out of Mario using magical pins.

I also want Mewtwo back, didn't like Lucario much. Or maybe they could just replace him with a different pokemon, maybe Gensect or something.

I'm about to tell you something, ready?: Only Nintendo-owned characters can make an appearance.

I know you're about to yell Snake and Sonic at me, but Nintendo owns the rights to Twin Snakes as well as a certain amount of Sonic.

I think only Capcom characters are the only third party characters that have been announced as a possibility.

 

[DigitalAtlas]

Sidenote: Sakurai has stated in an interview that Brawl is closer to how he's wanted the series to handle than Melee. Don't expect that to change

If it does, I won't really mind either way. Just sayin'.

That's a shame, I just figured that since TWEWY was on a Nintendo system they could have made an appearance. Oh well.

 

[Aircross]

Continuous character balancing from the developers.

Keeps the game fresh and exciting.

Nintendo only gave that game their seal of approval (permission to produce it). They have no ownership. So basically, if it's not Nintendo owned in some, way, shape, or form it's not showing up without an announced deal with the publisher. In this case, Nintendo and Sora Ltd would have to make quiiiite a deal with Square-Enix for a character who really doesn't fit in and would break the immersion. Sorry =\

 

[axlryder]

Megaman and Protoman. I wouldn't mind seeing Bass or Roll. They'd all fit extremely well in SSB, but I imagine Capcom wants to keep that IP locked up tight so they can continue to do absolutely nothing with it.

 

[Limecake]

Better controls than the Wii one, seriously if you didn't have a gamecube controller it was a waste.

I'd say we really don't need any more from the zelda or pokemon series, honestly 5 characters from the same series is a little much especially when several are just reskins with slight balance differences.

Nintendo has a fairly rich catalog of games why is it that 3 or 4 games dominate half the character select?

Personally I'd like to see:

Frog - Chrono trigger
ANY BELMONT - ANY CASTELVANIA (I'd even take alucard, why haven't they included one by now?)
Glover - Glover (it would be so fun to take out master hand as him)

I'm sure there are more I'd like to see but I'm too lazy to go through old nintendo games
