It was a brilliant decision by Nintendo to allow us to vote for the character we would like to see most appear in Super Smash Bros. Nintendo of America clarified yesterday that you are able to vote for any character from any video game franchise and that has got people voting in their droves. Anyone is fair game including Bayonetta, Knuckles and Banjo. Game Informer has listed their favourite choices to appear in Super Smash Bros. Here’s their list.
- Bayonetta
- Waluigi
- Toad
- Shovel Knight
- Kamek
- Young Link
- Knuckles
- Elincia
- Wolf
- Simon Belmont

Add King K. Rool to the damn list!
Put drake, Lara, Ellie, and a kill zone soldier too
>>>Kneel>>>
WTF… If they add the Mario characters in the list, there will be a total of 6 fu**ing NEW COMERS from the Mario series!!
#OVERKILL
Nope 11 characters from the mushroom kingdom if they Toad and Waluigi. Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, Rosalina, Wario, Bowser, Bowser Jr. Dr. MARIO, May as well have a mushroom kingdom fighting game. They would have as many characters as the first Mortal Kombat.
I voted for Roy, Shantae, Ice climbers and Bayonetta
Ice Climbers don’t work due to the 3DS version.
yeah that’s really hard to understand for people
true but we can try at least
No you can’t try cause its not possible..tf?
Lara yes, the others lol!!!
I voted the same way…. King K. Rool or WindWaker Ganondorf
Young link is the best choice if they use a majoras mask version. Imagine how awesome it would be. Using the masks in battle. Lastly that final smash fierce Diety link. Amazing
Yeah. The masks could be used just like Shulk’s Monado Arts.
Young Link for the win. I voted for him and K. Rool in the smash fighter ballot nintendo made.
the majoras mask version from majoras mask and majoras mask 3d
Wolf but no Krystal? Wolf’s move set is already in the game as Fox alts! (Though so is Lucas)
Krystal FTW!
Wolf has different moves then Fox. Besides the reflector shield and his blaster.
Geno from Mario RPG for the win.
Geno is such a stupid choice, I can’t even imagine what goes through people’s heads when they want him added smh
Foxy The Pirate from Five Nights At Freddy’s!
…Demise…hello…anyone there…no one wants demise…
I do
DEMISE DEMISE 1ST EVIL SWORDSMAN
add goku
I voted for the Inklings from Splatoon.
I don’t think you even have to vote them in. Nintendo themselves will most likely add them as paid DLC or free DLC if you own Splatoon
I could actually see that working
Dixie plez
yep her or knuckles i havent decided who im voting for yet
why not both? :D
I didnt know we could have more than one vote.
Ridely from Metroid.
Redely is to big
Sakurai has already said before that Ridley will not be joining regardless.
He did not say that he can’t join even if he is voted for the most through the polls. Seriously, maybe if he sees how many people truly want him in, he will reconsider.
Sakurai changes his mind ALL the time. Look at Wii Fit Trainer and Villager and some of the clones. Originally he has said before that characters from peaceful games could not be in a fighting game and that he would not do clones anymore….well, he changed his mind.
True. He lies waaaay to fucking much. If he isn’t sure about anything, he should just shut the fuck up.
Toad? Captain Toad would be way better.
In a game where jumping is a key mechanic, I’m not sure Captain Toast would be the best fit… unless he could temporarily lose his backpack.
Kinda a dumb point when Link can’t jump in his games and yet he can in Smash. Who cares about those diagram limitations for Toad, just incorporate his poor jumping skills.
No, Link can jump but there is never a button to press to do so, that is the only difference. One of the main points of Captain Toad is that he cannot jump whatsoever. Stop thinking you have more valid points than others. Piece of shit.
Olimar can’t jump.
Uh yeah, he actually can, but you launch him off small edges.
You can only launch him off Geysers in Pikmin 1 & 2…
You’re being a hypocrite lol. Piece of ass
Link can do a backflip and and a kartwheel. technically link can jump
Link jumped high as fuck on Hyrule warriors and The final Strike on Skyward Sword.
One of the core mechanics of Captain Toad is that he can’t jump. Since Sakurai loves to add characters in Smash and make them play like the game they’re in (Megaman is an example) he isn’t gonna be put in. Think more you piece of crack
Who says Captain Toad would need to jump? He could be launched by an object, float with balloons, pulled through the air by something, etc. He doesn’t need to “jump” to get off the ground.
Though, it would be REALLY interesting if, as a character, he loses his backpack when he jumps into the air and his movest changes completely, but when landing on the ground, he regains his backpack and his moveset returns.
I could see him being a heavy; powerful character on the ground, but lightweight and weaker in the air. It would be one heck of a niche mechanic for a character to have.
Get a life hon tbh who even cares about your long arguments.
You care enough to reply to his comment
You fucking stupid as shit
I would also like Captain Toad in it as well but I dunno about Toadette though
SHOVEL KNIGHT!!!
I heard he’s leading on the voting polls
FUCK WHAT ABOUT ISSAC
goku Kappa
Medusa from kid Icarus.
Medusa for sure. Either her or Hades, that game needs more reps.
>>>True but F-Zero needs it the most>>>
And there are several good characters who could make it- Black Shadow, Goroh, Pico, Super Arrow…
I’m adding Beastman to this awesome Comment :)
I agree
Toad!
Vote Virtual Boy!
Those are all wastes of votes except for the top 4
http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/289/c/1/medusa_by_dfreak22-d833eml.png
I will be fucking heard
>>>Hades is better>>>
she has a better chance because she was in the first kid Icarus game. and it will also make her the first female villain
>>>Well, as long as it’s a villain that makes the cut I will be satisfied, no more pathetic heroes>>>
Yeah you’re right the only two villains we have is Ganondorf and bowser. King dededede doesn’t even fucking count.
A roleplaying basement-dwelling loser or a guy so insecure in his own personality and/or masculinity he has to swear in literally every single comment ever?
whoever wins, we lose.
>>>Of course we win, considering you stalk both of us and are obsessed with us, specially me>>>
:O
This is your first sentence without the “F” word!!!
O:
There’s a reason for that
There’s a fucking reason for that shit* ;)
You fucking nailed it bro!
I love what you did bro. You have gotten a believer :)
XD
…No.
Best character ever!
Yes if she gets in than honestly I don’t care who else getting in. I’m going to main the shit out of Medusa.
I’m not gonna lie I read this comment multiple times and it stills sounds funny.
What about Banjo and Kazooie!!! they need to be in there!!
+1000
Hell yes! Banjo-Kazooie or K. Rool!
Hell yes, Micrisoft needs to strike a deal with Nintendo put the Bear and Bird in Smash!
BUT HEZ AH CLONE OF DAK HANT DAWG!
Wow, I would just shrug off a character choice I don’t agree with usually, and this list is mostly okay. But are you kidding me with Young Link? That’s like throwing your vote away. Toon Link and Young Link are the same shit.
No yet are not! I say do away with toon link. Young link could use the masks from Majora’s Mask to make him a fricking awesome character!
They*
Cast of Castlevania FTW Trevor C. Blemont, Simon Blemont, Richter Blemont, Alucard,Sonia Belmont,Reinhard Schneider,Nathan Graves,Gabriel Blemont.
Simon Belmont as the main with the others as skins for players 2-8
nathan graves would be a great blast from the past
but how about dracula?
Simon Belmont is my first choice.
Simon Belmont for Smash!
Master chief. So we can kick seven bells out of him
>>>I don’t want to see an Xbot icon’s dead corpse defiling the sacred grounds of Smash Brothers>>>
What about Crash Bandicoot?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-Wn48geCJ8 mario’s opinion on that statement
Elincia!? Hot damn, that,s some refined tastes right there.
Id prefer Eirika from Fire Emblem Sacred Stones than Elincia
One of the survivors from zombie u with the cricket bat
Shovel Knight Is In The Lead For The Ballot
Yeah, okay. Thanks, Uncle Anonymous who works at Nintendo.
Audrey 2 from little shop of horror
Krystal from Star Fox,
Bayonetta from Bayonetta,
King K. Rool from DKC,
Dixie Kong from DKC,
Birdo from Mario Tennis,
Medusa from Kid Icarus: Uprising,
Ivy Valentine from SoulCalibur,
Banjo-Kazooie from Banjo-Kazooie,
Inkling(s) from Spaltoon,
Ice Climber from Ice Climber,
Ms. Pac-man from Ms. Pacman,
Dr. Eggman from Sonic,
Shantae from Shantae,
Shovel Knight from Shovel Knight,
Ridley from Metroid,
These are the people I’ve voted for so far. Maybe I’ll vote for Waluigi or another Pikmin character, like Britanny later today.
Medusa add Medusa in there
I did!!!
Good you’ve done well
>>>And Sylux>>>
That’s a good one right there, I like that
Screw Sylux, Weavel for life!
>>>Weavel would be most welcome as well>>>
any metroid bounty hunter would be welcome
Sylux is more intimidating and mysterious though…
I’d love to see Weavel (or any of the other hunters, really) as an assist, though.
Honestly I Would say Kanden is the most intimidating. He’s design to be the ultimate killer.
Midbus <3
you realize that once you vote for one character, it cancels out your previous vote
Where does it say that? The site only says “please limit your vote to one per person.”
People definitely won’t obey that, including myself, but nowhere did it say a new vote cancels your previous one.
Don’t forget The adventure of Link! He can jump in that game!
I’m I the only one who wants Quote (Cave Story) in Smash?
Crono from Chrono Trigger!!!
Inkling girl!
how about just Inkling and different costumes have different genders
How about just Inkling, when you use a different outfit it has a different gender, 4 male 4 female.
Kamek? They’re fools.
King K. Rool for Smash
Kaptain K. Rool
Baron K. Roolenstein
King Krusha K. Rool
King Kut Out
All for Smash
^ This. How awesome would it be if those were his alternate costumes too!
I voted for Chrono and Isaac. This list really has a lot of problems imo. 1. Bayonneta probably won’t be in SSB to maintain the esrb rating maybe 2. Peach already uses Toad, and isn’t unique enough to even be a character. 3. We already have enough Links in SSB imo. These are just my opinions not facts.
They had snake in brawl. The ESRB rating would only change on the DLC page, when purchasing.
I think he was pertaining to the outfit, though?
Nice good job for voting Issac
Can you imagine if a character like Master Chief or something got in?
no
Add King K. Rool and Banjo&Kazooie !!!
I love Zelda games, but I really don’t wanna see any more Zelda characters. I’d like to see a character from a game that isn’t already in Smash Bros.
YES LIKE ISSAC
My top 5 (not ordered):
– Banjo&Kazooie (Banjo&Kazooie)
– King K. Rool (Donkey Kong Country)
– Bayonetta (Bayonetta)
– Simon Belmont (Castelvania)
– Sora (Kingdom Hearts)
I would add Rayman because I love him and he would perfectly fit in the game, but the recent actions of Ubisoft removed it from this list…
Dixie and Cranky kong duo. A DAM REAL DUO CHARACTER WITH KONGS!!!!
I would love to see the inkling boy/girl. But outside of Nintendo, I think Steve (Minecraft) would be perfect 👌
>>>The Inklings will most likely be DLC in the future regardless if you vote or not so I think it’s kind of a waste of vote>>>
Bullshit this game and chars aren’t cool
>>>Silence and get back to work>>>
i dont see the inklings being in smash because all the have are gun type of weapons. nothing melee type
>>>You can always add something to make it work, having their squidform can be used for melee attacks>>>
Sorry but ur taste in videogames is shit bro. I voted for isaac. Rayman k rool funky kong shovel knight banjo etc also would be nice
Nice job for voting Issac
King Boo! King Boo! What nobody can, you can do! Vote for King Boo!! Whooo hooo!
Vote for Brock Samson!!! He was already in PN2 (Telltale), so he technically already has experience as a video game character! Go Team Venture!
Brock Samson would be too OP
Brock Samson
Iron Mike Tyson
Vote NOW!
This has to happen
Are they retarded..?
They can’t add knuckles because the Sonic franchise already has one representative (1 per third party)
They can’t add Waluigi because he’s an assist trophy in this game.
And why would they add a clone of Link when we already have Toon Link?
A majoras mask version young link would not be a clone.
Goddamnit, why is no on mentioning Viewtiful Joe?
I completely forgot about him! Casting my vote now <_<
Though I feel more people would rather have Wonder Red who looks similar but is more of a Nintendo exclusive.
why not the girl from PN0 3 her name eludes me
Or vote for The Tick! Spoooooooooon! He had an SNES game!!!
But he didn’t originate from video games, automatic disqualification.
I voted for geno
>Waluigi
It’s funny to see Assist Trophies being voted.
Still not seeing any Takamuru requests. And why would we waste a slot on a veteran? (Not that it’s bad) we don’t know how many characters can join
People had lost hope in him because of his Assist Trophy role and the fact that they believe anything Sakurai says (He needs more familiarity in the West to be in the roster). Sad, but true.
well sakurai is a piece of fucking shit lier.
Boogerman
Mike Tyson
Crash Bandicoot
Dizzy
PaRappa the Rapper
Dr Dan and Dr Don
What about Mario from Mario Strikers? I also want Nintendo to add some characters from DBZ but firstly they should add all possible Nintendo characters
Bayonetta, yes. Wailuigi, fuck no. Young Link? Dumbass, that’s a clone and we already have Toon Link. Everything else, no.
No bitch!! Young Link is better than Toon Link!! Dr. Mario is there!! He doesn’t deserve here. Young Link is the best choice!! All veterans should be brought back
Young Link = Clone. Dr. CLONE is a clone. Toon Link at least has a few differences and feels more comfortable to play than regular Link.
A majoras mask version of young link would be no clone.
Look at him in Melee. He’s exactly like the other link because in that timeline (Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask) are in the same plane.
Snaaaaaaaake! :(
Is Nintendo ever going 2 use King Wart? I would love 4 him 2 b in the game. If not Simon Belmont.
These are my exact two choices as well!!!! I voted for Simon Belmont!
I would really want banjo in super smash bros He’s actually one of my favorite characters. And it would me a lot to me if nintendo puts them in :)
What about Jeanne from Bayonetta? Or Jessica from RE: Revelations?
VIRIDI FROM KID ICARUS UUURRGGGHH
Fucking yes!
exite bike because bike and exite
Bayonetta, Crash,Bomberman, Rayman, Spyro and Goku (read Super Smash Flash 2)
I voted for Bayonetta. She already has the moves that will be good at smash.
I don’t think they’ll allow guns to be used. Nintendo said no guns when Snake was in Brawl, and I don’t think that’s going to change if Bayonetta makes the cut.
Guys I dunno who to vote for! I want Banjo a lot and he’s my most likely vote for now, but I also think Waluigi and the Inklings should be in it too. I also want another Xenoblade character maybe Reyn or Dunban, but now one else is suggesting this. Toad and Knuckles would be cool too.
Also for those arguing over Toad vs Captain Toad, we could just have both with costume/colour changes like they did with Wario etc….
Anyone know who I should vote for out of the ones I’ve said?!
you can vote more than once so just vote for all of them
I voted for someone that wasn’t in any of the comments above. I voted for Professor Layton. Usually people vote for a fast character or a strong character. Why not a smart character? We got Dr. Kawashima from Brain Age as an assist trophy. Why not Profesor Layton? He’d be a good challenge for any developer.
How about bringing Squirtle back…he was one of my fave! Still can’t believe Squirtle is out.
If not Squirtle, i’d go for a Metroid (if they can’t do Ridley, please, a Metroid would be very cool!
Dixie Kong and Captain Toad would also be welcome.

Vote for Captain N: The Game Master!
Oh man, I forgot all about Knuckles. One of my most favorite video game characters too. Gonna vote for him!
Am I the only one who’d love to see Professor Layton solving puzzles on the battlefield?
Black Mage from Final Fantasy (I want my SSF2 main to be a reality),
Bayonetta from Bayonetta (Best game in Wii U action game hands down!),
King K. Rool from DKC (He is long overdue!),
Nicky from Style Savyy (If we already have two songs from these games, then why not have a character from them),
Lark from Pilotwings 64 (The lack of Pilotwings 64 content was disturbing),
Medusa from Kid Icarus: Uprising (Fuck Hades!),
Takamaru from The Mysterious Murasame Castle (Sakurai, this is to prove that there is demand for this samurai!),
Banjo-Kazooie from Banjo-Kazooie (Give them the fuck back, Microsoft!),
Inkling(s) from Spaltoon (Nuff said),
Ice Climber from Ice Climber (Have Nana as a damn alt),
Princess Daisy from Mario Party 10 (Fuck Waluigi!),
Dr. Eggman from Sonic (You know what they say, the more the merrier!),
Impa from Hyrule Warriors (Midna fanboys, don’t even say a word),
Mona from Warioware Inc (Wario doesn’t need to be alone anymore),
Cia from Hyrule Warriors (There is such thing as the Guardian of Time outfit and fuck that blue haired J-Pop trash!),
These are the choices I’ve voted for to this very day. Maybe I’ll vote for Krystal or Ryu Hayabusa when I get my hands on the library’s computers.
black mage would be cool
He would be a nice addition since he at least crossed over with Mario a few times (Mario Hoops and Mario Sports Mix) and he’s the first Final Fantasy protagonist (excluding the other Warriors of Light). Some spells like Stop, Meteor, and Haste would work well for his moveset.
Finally, someone else but me is interested in having some more Sonic characters. I’m happy for Knuckles, Tails, or even Robotnik!
Silver the hedgehog. krystal. Amy rose. Goku. dixie. Birdo
I would pick banjo but we already have duck hunt he would be another clone so no
And definitely not young link whats the point of having three link’s in the game
I’d like to see the pokemon chikorita as a playable character
We need a grass starter and it was in melee and brawl as a pokeball pokemon so why not
Personally, I voted for Princess Elise ;)
I vote for Isaac from Golden Sun. Probably won’t happen though.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5m3EKZLeQg
With how close of a relationship that KoeiTecmo has right now with Nintendo especially thanks to Hyrule Warriors and Fatal Frame coming to NA later, why not Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden? He’d be one of the best 3rd party picks too.
Pingback: Super Smash Bros.: ecco i dieci personaggi votati da Game Informer | VG247.it
How about that samurai from the mysterious Murakami castle as a playable character
Mighty no 9 the robot from steam world dig mutant mudds character lightning from final fantasy
NARUTO *deal with it*
Nintendo made it clear, only characters that originated from Video Games are allowed and have been on a Nintendo platform at least once, Naruto started as a manga, thus is disqualified.
Why can’t people just make good suggestions?
>>>Because they are the cattle>>>
>>>If the developers of Shovel Knight didn’t mention it, I bet about 90% of all Shovel Knight voters wouldn’t even vote for it>>>
Krystal
abobo from abobos big adventure
As much as I’d love to see additional 3rd party characters I would rather Nintendo focus the Smash Bros. universe more on the Nintendo characters like it was intended during Smash 64.
The majority of other fighter titles usually only add like 1-2 guest characters. Smash 4 already has 3, which IMO is more than enough.
Aside from two or three of those, that’s a pretty terrible list.
I voted for Percy Jackson since Nintendo owns his videogames and also owns the video game version of him to and his video game moves are so cooler than his book abilities
Do they seriously want young Link in the game when there’s toon Link?
Imagine young link from majoras mask switching from masks becoming a Zora a deku and a Goron in battle. And just imagine the special fierce Diety link. He gots my vote
Wonder Red!
Wow, that list is bad. A couple of good ones but the rest are already assist trophies or just plain dumb.
Bond…..James Bond
they can suggest any character and that’s their list?
ugh
i’d like to see crash bandicoot.. or earthworm jim.. or the vault boy.. or sam and/or max…or the duke… or for god’s sake guybrush threepwood
Goku deserves to be a playable character in this game.
The only third-party characters I wanted in Smash are already in it (Mega Man and Pac-Man). So anybody else is just an added bonus. Doesn’t matter to me who they pick.
This is the stupidest list I have ever seen. Waluigi’s already an assist trophy! Toad? Who in the world wants Toad in the game! Toad’s a minor grunt worker, completely irrelevant to the SMB series, PLUS, why would they waste a Mario slot on a flipping Toad! That’d be like getting an Octorok as a Zelda rep for Smash! And Kamek? Kamek is already a stage hazard in the NSMB WiiU stage… Simply idiotic… Where’s the Inkling from Splatoon? Where’s Geno from Super Mario RPG? Even that dumb crocodile king would be a better addition than a flipping Toad! Wolf and Bayonetta are arguably the only characters on this list to even stand a chance of getting in…
Wart
I was thinking Wart. He never got any recognition since Super Mario Bros. 2.
Aero the Acrobat
No Waluigi! Never! Why waste our time with that?! And Knuckles? God damn it. When will people quit? Simon Belmont! Let’s get that Vampire Killer in there.
First party: petey piranha
Third party: Juan Aguacate/Tostada from Guacamelee!!!
Korra from The Legend of Korra. I’d love using the 4 elements and the Avatar State as the final smash.
Tails <3
Yes! He’s basically Sonic’s Luigi. You can’t have one without the other
Sora from Kingdom Hearts…
SHREK and GOKU FTW!!
Australia Club Nintendo Code 2: 8R0PNHP9NQ65GNR9
Australia Club Nintendo Code 3: 4VE75JCPSREQHFQ1
Australia Club Nintendo Code 4: 5ARP9G1LPMBYIQNV
I would love, Bomberman, Bayonetta, Simon Belmont and Earthworm (Frigging) Jim!!!!! Imagine using his head whip, super suit and blaster it would be ace plus you could drop cows on other players
King K. Rool, Krystal, Geno, Shantae, Shovel Knight, Simon Belmont, Fawful, Midbus, Banjo & Kazooie, Waluigi, Toad!!! I would love to see a reveal trailer that starts off with the Smash logo, followed by quicker versions of the same logo, with Nintendo revealing multiple characters at once.
On the Smash Fighters Ballot, when it says “Please limit your vote to one per person,” does it mean one vote per character, or one vote total?
Id like to see Rex the lizard in the game
well kunckles is popular.
Definitely voting for Dio Brando from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure.
Homper Simpson and peter griffin!
Now this is what a voting list should look like. I can see all of these characters being added to Smash in some way. Way better than stuff like Goku, Freddy Fazbear (not kidding, that was an actual vote), and Shrek (again, not kidding).
I myself voted for Carol and Lilac from Freedom Planet, not only because their game is getting a Wii U port very soon, but also because their movesets would fit perfectly in the Smash series
Lilac deserves the spot more than Carol
Pingback: VidaoPantalla | Todo el mundo del videojuego lo tienes aquí
I voted for the following:
Tails
Krystal from Starfox Adventures
Lilac from Freedom Planet
Kei Nagase from Ace Combat 5
Nathan Hale from Resistance Fall of Man series
I voted for Shantae, Shovel Knight and Banjo-Kazooie
1st party: Krystal as a staff wielder
Really long shot as a 3rd party: Sub-Zero (Mortal Kombat)
