(Steals xzakcorex's Tom Nook, Olimar, and Lucario and uses them in his earlier screen)

BTW, I seem to recall somewhere that all the 3rd party characters wil be unlockables. Something to keep in mind when arrainging your screens...

...and his young link.

My next verson will probably steal the extra-6 character idea form the other guy.

Yes, the one in the upper right corner is Midna, and I also have M-09 that needs a name bar. Same with Deoxis.

To be honest who says they will keep this format anyway?
With 40 characters it would be a tight squeeze on the screen however you do it. Maybe this time you will have the player number/name along the bottom above that the character name and above that a 3D model of the character your on currently. You could then use up and down to scroll through the characters. This would be much less fuss and if done right could look much better.
I do like the way it is now however but with more characters i'm not sure this will be viable anymore.

Same with Ray.

I personally disagree with your choice of Ray (BR would be immensely cool, if a little over-the-top), but it's a really great list. A lot of my top pics, and a few surprises I wouldn't mind (M-09 specifically)

And Andy.

The trick with squeezing them all in was saying no to people like Samuri Goh, Hector, Ike, Falco, Dark Samus, King Dedede, Toad, Earthbound characters, ect.

Can anyone think of smaller, older franchises that I missed completely? Starfy and Mach Rider, I know, but I'd like 4 others...

I also noticed you took out Falco. I personally disagree, but if Fox plays the same as SSB, I'd be fine with it.

The only smaller, older franchise I can think of is Punch-Out!! I don't see Little Mac on that list. While he's not exactly my #1 pick (or even in my top 10), I can see him as a worthwhile character from an old fan favorite with a possible sequel on the horizon (much like Pit, might I add).

I like this one alot better so far; has more of a Smash look to it, I think. Obviously, I'm not done. I still have to add the character spaces and do more work on the player slot things.

I just went through the early screens of this thread, and am looking at Starfy, Mach Rider, ROB, Balloon Fighter, and Little Mac.

I may end up pitting Ray, from Day of Disaster back in.

Any GBA series I'm missing? (besides tetris?)

EDIT: Wait! Wii Sports Guy!

hmm I actually liked the other one more, this one seems way too dark.

I'd say Shantae, but that may be too obscure.

I think that's that new character from Zelda TP if I'm not mistaken in Kaid's...

and conker1 - i like how you added some but you cut off their face in some...like Little Mac...and C. Olimar...and bomberman...and jeff...just sayin it'd look cleaner cut if the faces weren't cut off- otherwise it's a nice selection...minus Kooper...

the others are nice selections too for the most part...sorry- there are some characters I just don't see that would have better uses (Tom Nook for example)
Well I just did it real quick in MSPaint so.

Here's the screen before unlocking characters



And here's after unlocking all the characters


After unlocking Hector, Hextor and Diddy switch places
After unlocking Ridley, Ridley and Olimar switch
After Unlocking Wolf, Wolf and Ray switch
After unlocking Krystal, Krystal and Jeff switch



KOOPER RULES!!!!

The fat version, W/o new pictures. The offset of the added boxes is intentional, being based off the Melee screen.

Unlockables are set up just like melee: The entire bottom row (besides Pikachu, who moves from someplace else when you unlock, say, Luigi) and both flanks (and thus, 3rd party characters) start off unavailable.

Conker1...good screen(though I'm getting tired of looking at that background type, truthfully), but no Sonic or MegaMan? Instant fail for me.(even X or .exe would've been something). Not a bad screen at all, though.

lol, i like how everyone is using zodiak's screen. although i am guilty of that too. good character choices. i would like to see midna be with wolf link thought. and why does everyone want pac-man. he sucks.

(why has no one seen my final version yet? you guys should see it. there is a link somewhere on this thread, like somewhere between page 6-8)

I just checked it, colbusman, and while nice, I don't like how the characters are lined up(3 equal rows and 1 row with 1 character), and I think the boxes could've looked better. But other than that, pretty nice.

(man, nobody comments on mine. I'd better edit it with exact characters, I forgot about that)

well, it wasn't originally like that but i added more characters and it ended up like that. i could fix it sometime soon though. also, i did it on paint, so that is why the boxes suck.

Geno is a third party, and my set is already maxed out at Snake, Sonic and Megaman.

Wii Sports Guy has plenty of possibilities, expecially if they continue the series.

ROB, having been in Mario Kart DS, is a posibility.

Little Mac and Starfy have had supporters as far back as the original spam thread.

Well replace Kooper with whomever you want. He was the one character I wanted in that nobody else does. If I remembered I would've replaced him with Pac-Man. I just don't like Sonic. I liked his old Genesis games. I played trough and beat Sonic Adventure 2. I raised Chaos using Sonic. But for some reason I just don't like sonic at all. I like him waaaayyyyy more than Megaman though.

im almost possitive there wont be 50 characters...
Plus he said at most he will only add 2-3 non nintendo characters...

This is in regards to the first post.
Yes, I know, but by the time I noticed there were way too many characters I was almost finished, and I didn't feel like changing it.

BTW, I also like all the screens out there. For the most part they all look good.

And the final version, pending better character portraits.



I'm a little worried that Starfox has as much representation as the core Mario franchise, but I couldn't find a good ROB pic, and people were complaining about the lack of Falco.

Retro characters: GW, IC, Mach Rider, Marth (he's from the NES), Ness, Pit, Balloon Fighter and Little Mac

Currently pending characters: Midna, M-09, Lucario, Wii Sports Guy.

Still in the early beta stages, as it states itself. But it's coming along. Just wanted to show you guys the final roster I decided on (which I know is more than what we will likely get number wise... :laugh:).

EDIT: And I know somebody's gonna knock it for no Sonic, but hear me out: it's my **** picture :laugh: I can do what I want.

But seriously, I've always felt from the beginning that those were the three third party characters we would end up with, give or take one for Bomberman or Simon or classic Mega Man.

Geno is included separately from them because well... I want him, for one, and for two, he's really a Mario character, just separated by a developer. He technically is third party, but doesn't have to be.

EDIT II: Here's the list of everybody (oy >.< my fingers are gonna hurt)

Ridley, Metroid
Lucario, Pokemon
Pikachu, Pokemon
Wario, Wario Land/Wario Ware/Super Mario Bros. (he gets around :p)
Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong/Donkey Kong Country/Super Mario Bros. (him too)
Princia, F-Zero
Deoxys, Pokemon
Zelda, Legend of Zelda
King Dedede, Kirby
Meta Knight, Kirby
Samus, Metroid
Daigoroh, F-Zero (Samurai Goroh's son, fyi)
Ness, Earthbound (Mother [2])
Link, Legend of Zelda
Vaati, Legend of Zelda
Kirby, Kirby
Demiru, Tomato Adventure
Captain Falcon, F-Zero

(this begins my favorite row, EVER :))
Takamaru, Nazo no Murasamejou (translation: Riddle of Castle Murasame)
Sukapon, Joy Mech Fight
Pit, Kid Icarus
Mike, Star Tropics
(end favorite row EVER)
Little Mac, Punch-Out!!
Ice Climbers, Ice Climber :p

Pure awesomeness. You should be part of the Brawl development team FlipTroopa. Sure, there's characters on there I don't agree with, and some that I would want to see, but its the most varied mockup I ever seen. And I think its great.

I agree with WindGuru, everyone should be satisfied with that, except for those people who always whine about 1 character that they like not being in.

Like sonic.

Resolving a 15 year rivalry once and for is more important than simple awsomeness.
Not really, because you know if they did conclude the rivalry, not everyone would be happy with the result. Probably, Sonic would end up being lower tier than Mario; They'd probably make sure of it. And that would piss off a lot of Sonic fans.

It's really a very touchy situation. But logically, Sonic should be the loser, just as he was in reality.

They were neck and neck for over 10 years, with Sonic actually having the advantage in the states.

And Nintendo doesn't acknowlege tiers. They do their best to balance the game.

If Sonic HAD to be in the game, he would likely just be Mario sans a little power for Speed. They would NOT make the two that radically different, and piss off that many fans. Let's be real here :laugh: Even though he failed in the real world (Worldwide Mario AND the TurboGrafx kicked Sonic's ***), as far as any of us REMEMBER, he was up there.

It's kinda like the old saying, "What people belive is more important than what's really true." Sonic was indeed more popular in the US for many years, but worldwide, and especially in Japan, couldn't hold a candle. In actuality, Sonic was American made, or at least made with Americans in mind, for many years, since Sega knew that was where they were going to get a following. In the 90s, Mario OR Bonk would've destroyed Sonic in Japan. Now that Sega is third party, Sonic Team started making their games more "Japanese," and Bonk is long gone, Sonic has gotten a bit of his crown back over there. But he still wasn't "LOL CHAMPION." We just remember him being that way, because that's how it was for us in the West.

Regardless, I was going to make a topic soon about why we should pay a more attentive ear to HUDSON, not Sega. It's amazing how many people neglect that developer, after they've done practically everything for Nintendo :p

EDIT: And thanks for the compliment WindGuru. It was flattering :laugh:

Hudson deserves to put a character in SSBB before Sega does. Bomberman should definately be in SSBB.
[Off-topic]They should've put Bomberman in the Mario Party series as a super unlockable.[/OffTopic]

Hey, I'm kind of new to this forum, and not that smart due to my lack of age and stupidity, but I'd like to make a selection screen but, how do I put this.......how do I? I'm sorry if this has been answered, if it has you can just scold me and I'll lurk more carefully.
