What you're saying makes sense but it works slightly different. Solid Snake was on a Nintendo console in the past but then again, so were a lot of franchise characters (i.e. Megaman, Simon Belmont, Bill Rizer). Nintendo did not buy the rights to these games. Rather, the developer bought the right to make games on Nintendo's consoles. If Nintendo wishes to use them in their Smash Brothers series, they do need the respective parties permission. Though they would be hard-pressed to decline though for the reason that you specify (Nintendo gives them consoles to make games on), they still need permission. In regards to Solid Snake's appearance on Brawl, Konami did give Nintendo the go to put him in there. Sony was in no position to object, regardless of the fact that MGS has largely been a Playstation exclusive for the past decade or so. A bit of $$$ exchanging hands could've easily turned the tables on Nintendo however.

Konami asked for him to be put in Melee, but it was too late. So they got him in Brawl.

Since they have sonic, they should put Tails, and put Knuckles in assist trophies. They should also put Travis from NMH and DeBlob from the game with the same name.

The idea of putting the Majora Kid/Scarecrow is also interesting.

As for people who say that, since Snake was in there, exclusive games from other companies can make it to SSB, you can't think that way. Metal Gear Solid : Twin Snakes (remake from MSG1) made it to the GC, and that's why they put Snake and Shadow Mosses in SSB. So, the character must have done at least one apparition in a game out on a Nintendo platform to be there. (So we can still dream of having Conquer and Banjo out there :D)

Edit : Ya, well Nitrodriven said it! Didn't see it, sory for the useless paragraph...

Knuckles would be a neat addition, though they already have Shadow as an assist trophy.

Press up on the d-pad and you tell all the other players to listen to what you have to say. He could turn green with A-button!

That would be great!

Exactly! It's that evil fairy that annoys you with the infamous "HEY! Listen!" that makes every Zelda player go crazy. I'm sure all the people on the screen would just jump down the stage to get it over with.

How so? All of the games featuring Snake are M-rated. I think a Big Daddy would be an awesome addition. Huge, strong and amazingly fast.

I think Earthworm Jim's an excellent idea. I also think that if they are going to keep most of the retro characters, assign them new moves. For example D.K's barrel throw, or Link could transform into his wolf form like zelda transformed into shiek. The same old moves are getting boring is all I'm saying.

Yeah but they sort of dumbed it down.
Also MGS has a more military focus.
Bioshock has more on the horror aspect.

And without guns, the characters more likely to become a half or even full clone of Snake.
Again, did it even come out on Wii?

I want to make it so you can customize your own Mii in the game and select what you're attacks do or look like. That would be awesome, and with technology advancing so quickly, it could probably be available for the next SSB.

I still want DeBlob tho. Make him an assist trophy maybe... He could fill the screen with paint and maybe this paint could slow ennemies down.

I can see battletoads as an assist trophy, but not as a playable character. Wouldn't megaman be a new kirby, only with a gun?

You're right, however I didn't think that Snake would fit in, but he's one of the coolest characters in the game. They would probably find a way to fit the character with the game.

First Snake and Sonic have to go.
Unfortunately that would also disqualify Megaman, Geno, Earth Worm Jim and Battletoads.

But who should really be in Super Smash Bros. would be the virusses.
Many programmers would go insane trying to figure a way out how to control Red,Blue and Yellow at the same time without making them look like an Ice Climbers ripoff, but that would be really interesting.

Travis Touchdown would be perfect. Beam katana for his normal attacks/smashes, wrestling moves for the throws. Not sure what his specials would be, although maybe down-B would make him switch to a faster/lighter beam katana. His Final Smash could be that super saiyan bullshit he does after a finisher.

Hey, holding B could charge up the katana's battery. It would never fully deplete with use, like in NMH, but a fully-charged blade would start off doing really strong attacks and quickly fade to super-weak attacks when the battery is empty.

Merit wasn't a requirement for posting your ideas.

Anyways, I'm hardly a fan of Nintendo or SSBB. However, if they let me play a Big Daddy in the next one, I'd be more interested in it. Half of the characters are dorky, imo anyway.

I'm not sure how well he'd play though. Isn't the main thing in Bomberman to drop bombs and run around the corner, trying to kill the others. There's not much potential there.
But hey, they turned the Starfox pilots into some of the best characters in the game. So I'm willing to see them try.
