Wondering who IGN want included as the downloadable character for Super Smash Bros? Well judging from their Instagram page it would seem as though they’re backing Sonic’s best friend Tails. I suppose he would make the perfect companion for Sonic who already stars in the brawler. Don’t forget you can vote for your favourite character, here.
Thanks, Kaptain Krusha K. Rool

Well… I’m not against any new Sonic characters (other than Big the Cat), but Tails wouldn’t be my first option…
Heck yeah tails is awesome I’m all for it!
it would only make sense though… its sonic and tails after all, hes just a classic STH character, even moreso than Knuckles… and i would rather see Tails than something lame like shadow or silver… dont get me wrong they are good characters, BUT… it would just feel wrong to skip over Tails… although Knuckles would be freaking awesome too imo
Boring game is boring
I’m not against any Sonic character, but I don’t think they’ll makr it in.
Tails is not a bad idea tho
I thought IGN was famously anti-Sonic.
Well, Tails isn’t exactly Sonic, is he?
8/10 too many tails
8.5^
I like tails but he isn’t near my top 5 of wanted characters.
Darkness, only candles are lit… creepy music plays… a door opens, and a little beam from a flashlight enters the room. It’s Luigi… “Hello?” he mutters…. the beam dances over the floor and finds Bowser, Mario, Link and Ganondorf…. Luigi now fully enters the room…. A battle is about to commerce…. Then suddenly the candles are blown out and the door slams shut…. Full darkness…. An evil laugh covers the room! Something illuminates! King Boo! Master of the Mansion!
Omg I think I want king boo more!!!
Interesting, but I pretty sure that most people want someone that is from a different game.
Oh fuck no. We don’t need more annoying Sega trash.
No. Sonic has its representation. It’s a third-party. Limit one character per third-party.
So you don’t want Phoenix Wright or Zero or Lloyd or Simon Belmont or Bomberman?
I voted for Phoenix Wright.
Ryu anyone?
Un dude, you know Capcom has Ryu and Megaman in Smash, right? That rule went out of the window.
All he would be is a cloned Sonic. Unless they use his SA2 get up. He would not be my top pick.
You know, he has tails for a reason. Areal ability is one, and he’s a genius, so put some robots and his magic hand in there from Sonic Battle. He has a lot of potential.
I take it back. Add Tails as a skin for Sonic but we don’t need him as his own character for Smash.
Noooo! Give me KNUCKLES! !!
I agree. Knuckles before tails. But not Sonic Boom Knuckles. In fact, Knuckles would be my second choice right after Simon Belmont.
No… no more sonic characters… if so then at LEAST choose knuckles. but I’ve had it up to here with sonic stuff..
Tails isn’t actually too bad a shout, I think he’d be able to add more variety than knuckles would and I don’t think would be too much sega!
I’d really like Tails to be in the game, I don’t know why people have knee-jerk reactions to Sonic characters that aren’t Sonic. Besides, if another Sonic character is added, Tails would be the most sensical way to go.
No thanks.
The competition for one spot in the next Super Smash Bros DLC is a hell of a fight.
It’s supposed to be a joke. On IGN’s Nintendo Voice Chat, they were all joking about how “no one” wants Tails in the game.
Tails hater
If there’s one Sonic character that I’d like to see in Smash, it’s Dr Eggman.
NO
If any sonic character would be able to get in I’d choose Amy. Her hammer is a great asset. She’s not as fast as sonic but she is quick and can still run at top speed while increasing the size of her hammer. She’d be a fast powerhouse.
She would be really fun. But pretty much Knuckles, Tails, Shadow, and Robotnik (fuck Eggman, I’m old school) all have a better chance than her. Amy has never had the popularity she deserves.
I’d rather see another Sega character separt from Sonic be in Smash. Like: AiAi, Alis Landale, NiGHTS.
SEGA’s only good characters are in Sonic, though…
Don’t believe that. I’m tired of people acting like the franchise Sega has is Sonic.
I’d like to see the entire cast from all three Streets of Rage games.
I vote for Ninja Turtle Donatello (Don or Donnie) – The scientist, inventor, engineer, and technological genius, Donatello wears a purple mask and wields a bo staff. Donatello is perhaps the least violent turtle, preferring to use his knowledge to solve conflicts, but never hesitates to defend his brothers. He is named after the early Renaissance Italian artist and sculptor from Florence, Donatello.
I think we have enough furbait as it is.
Honestly, I’d rather have Knuckles, but Tails would be awesome.
HELL NO HELL NI
GAAAH A PENIS IS RAPING ME ITS HAPPENJNG
SHIIIIIIT
FURRIES
TAILS…
SEXXXXX
NOW
FURRY
so sexy
Gimme that
Eh..what?
Perfect representation on the Sonic fanbase
They’re all secretly furries and enjoy gay fanfiction of these characters
There’s no need to cater to these creeps.They’d do nothing but request the whole Sonic universe anyway
So eloquent. Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Shadow ftw caud
Hell yeah! Tails was my first choice! TEAM TAILS!
Although I would rather have Tails as an assist trophy i still think that HELL YEA tails all the way
I’ve always said that if we were to get another SOnic rep, it would have to be either Tails or Eggman and Tails is more likely in my opinion.
Nice choice, IGN.
At least this one makes sense to promote. Sonic is there, Tails isn’t a clone, Tails is popular too. I could get behind this if I had to pick sides. But I wouldn’t personally vote for him.
Ghirahim all the way. Or Zant. Or Skull Kid. Or Impa. Or Midna. Or Ravio.
Like, there are so many potential Zelda characters to be added. When Mario has like practically double digit representatives, and Zelda didn’t even get a new representative in SSB4, something isn’t right. I get that multiples of the above mentioned are assist trophies, but it’s just strange that for all of the recent Zelda releases/re-releases, we didn’t get a single new playable Zelda representative. Hell, they only even gave us Skyloft as a single new Zelda stage. So much wasted potential.
#Justice4Zelda
Sonic and Tails vs Mario and Luigi
YES, PLEASE!
No
No more Sonic characters
Go ask SEGA to make an all Sonic cast fighting game and ask for your shit characters on that
The problem with that is that the game would probably suck balls.
Fuck you tails hater
lol no just nooooo
Bleh, no thanks… I don’t want anymore Sonic characters added to this game.
Hell yes tails plzplzplz! Smash needs some more sega characters and I’m not just talking sonic. Im talking like the old sega characters
Trust me if u wanna know how tails fight go watch deathbattle tails v luigi on YouTube
Tails shoud be playable in ssb plz vote for him
