Oh Well... If this thread is staying, better do a nice post...
Ok.
Wolf O'Donnell:
Let's See, He's a Villain, he's important to the Franchise, he has been Fox's Rival since always, he's Badass, Popular, was on the poll and has a small-mid fanbase. But... does he stand a chance?
Well, Star-Fox is one of the most recognized Nintendo Franchises, so think he deserves a spot, besides, having Krystal(she's a given), Fox, Falco AND Wolf it's not much, considering Pokemon and Nintendo have around 6 characters and Zelda around 5. Besides if Sakurai was Serious with the "We requiere more minerals Villains" then Wolf is a Given.
Ridley:
Hmmmmm ... Ridley... an Oversized Dragon has no place in Brawl *Ridley Eats n00b*.
This is heard quite frequently around here. Size is not an issue Fellow Smashers! Bowser was Gigantic Before! Bigger Than Ridley! And he is in the Game!.
Besides, who else is going to rep the Metroid Franchise? Dark Samus? we'll cover that later. Ridley, is the most important character in the Metroid Franchise besides Samus Herself!. He Destroyed Samus Home and Killed Samus's Parents in front of Her... While trying to kill her when she was just a little Girl.
Of course he Failed, then the Chozo found Samus, and helped her become the warrior she is now, See? It's all Ridley's Fault! Withouth him there would be no Samus. Undeserving? Ha!. Also, many think Ridley is a mindless Monster, Fools! He is the Supreme Commnder of the Space Pirates in each game(not the Boss, the Big Bad boss is "Pirate HQ"... whatever that means). Still, he is more important than your pansy... wait... who else could you add to the Metroid Roster? Ahahahaha.
Ridley For Brawl! Don't believe me? Foo! Read the First page of the new Ridley thread and be enlightened.
The Black Freaking Knight:
We all know there are TONS of Fire Emblem Characters, and most of them have a Fanbase, Sothe, Sigurd, Eprhaim, Hector, Lyndis... The list goes on.
But let's see at Ike... ooooh yes... The Black Knight is Ike's Nemesis! He killed Ikes Father(i think it was his father... i don't own the game) just in front of him, He's also very important in the last FE games, but i would have to spoil the story, go to the Black Knight Thread, there's info on the last pages.
Now Everyone thinks he's a cliche Black Knight, well... No, he's pretty Original save the name. But... is he deserving to be in Brawl? Well... Yes, if Ike is in i think that makes the Black Knight a shoe in, with all the villain talk and with the Black Knight being on the Poll. Besides it would be very easy to make him a luigified clone of Ike.
Besides, if Marth is out of the game(hey don't look at me like that, he could be out of the game) then that would definitibly(spelling is a *****) make the Black Knight a shoe in, leaving more space for the FE Roster, since i expect at least 3 rep for the FE Series.
Dark Samus:
"Oh noes, not another Samus!, she would totally be a clone!"
Ok, first than all i will call Dark Samus a He, he is genderless so it would be an it... but whatever.
Ok... let's see... a Clone? Dark Samus drops balls? Nope, has a morph ball feature? nope Screw Attack? Nope, Missiles? Well... yeah, some kind of Blue Projectile but it's way stronger than Samus's Missiles, Charge beam? Nope. Grapple beam? Nope.
So would he be a clone? i think not, "but dude! what does he do then?" Oh now this IS where it gets fun, now i haven't played Corruption, so... he might do more things.
Well first than all, instead of the Power Beam, he has some kind of Scatter shot, he shots a barrage of Phazon uhhh "bullets" in a conic arc, like ">" , he floats(like mewtwo) has a "meteor" attack, kind of like Luigi's Attack, Dark Samus is engulfed in Blue Phazon and flys against you. He also has a "laser" beam, and can turn invincible(seriously the firs time he did that on Prime 2 i didn't know where he went unless he stared pumeling me with missiles).
So would he be a Clone? hell not. So, does he has a chance to be in Brawl?
Yep... pretty much, even with Ridley in the game, i think Metroid deserves at least 3 representatives, i mean why not? is one of nintendo's oldest frachises. Besides if Ridley is someday De-confirmed, that makes Dark Samus a shoe in.
Megaman:
Let's put it simple, if there's someone more deserving of a Third Party slot on Brawl other than Sonic that's Megaman, in my eyes, he deserves to be in Brawl.
I really don't know how high his chances are, i just know that he would be awesome in Brawl.
