I want them to bring back Young Link (and I don't care how they do it, masks or not, although the masks would make him less of a "clone" of Link if that really matters to people, it doesn't to me) and bring back other characters that were removed between Brawl and Melee, at least some of them anyway. Dr. Mario could be more like a skin/costume thing. I think that Link should also have costumes so he can look like SS Link, TP Link, or OoT adult Link. Maybe even Adventure of Link Link! (That's a good game, btw) I know it's a lot of work, but they could use the actual game models for some of them (not AoL Link, of course) and just polish them a little bit. I like the models used for Link (child and adult) in Ocarina of Time 3D for example, and they could even start with Melee models as a base for the removed characters.

Maybe they could have additional characters be released through downloads so they could keep making them and release them when they're ready. I want there to be a lot of characters I guess is my point, I like to change who I play a lot. But still my most important wish for the next SSB is the return of Young Link.

That is my 2 cents and I am probably too busy to actually keep up with this fast-moving thread but I will keep checking back :)

@KittyCat- Yeah, I wouldn't mind Young Link coming back either. BUT... I mean, we already have Toon Link. Sure, he could replace Toon Link, but it would be kinda going backwards replacing Toon Link with Young Link since Toon Link is supposed to be his successor in the first place

@yani- He can't avoid us forever :mistyface:

In all seriousness, I can see Palutena being that heavy due to the ton of armor and weapons she has. Not to mention it looks golden. Gold is pretty heavy.



I guess the Goddess of Light is a bit of a misnomer.

Wait... even that's correct :c

Speaking outside of Smash and inside of it.

I guess Young Link pales in comparison to Roy, and I'm just too biased for Young Link to say otherwise.
Glad to see you've made a recovery.

Thanks for the welcoming to the discussion guys, appreciate it. :p

Anywho, yes, I could certainly see Palutena being a bit heavy due to her armor and weapons.

Are people still going with the whole "Ridley for SSB4" debate? I know it was something discussed on multiple forums and sites, I got too exhausted to keep up with it though.

Butthurt? Roy's last appearence? Love you too :)

Actually, Roy's popularity shines most from SSBM as of now. YLink's pop grew after the remake of OoT.
Tell that to the Japanese. :smirk:
Don't see all that many requests for Young Link to return...
(Also Roy is one of the more popular lords outside of Smash in Japan.)
And saying Yink's popularity grew after the remake is only your assumption. Got Proof?

Also, Roy isn't particularly my favorite, so no, I ain't butthurt.
But your bias....

I CAN SEE THROUGH THAT!

She don't need to be heavy,she doesn't look like she would be heavy,and nothing show her being heavy or what,samus as an armor,but she's not heavy,because she's in space/her armor can do that.Paletuna is a godesse,she would make her fly/float.
Young link as Majora's,switching with deku/goron/zora.

That's true, and I don't like it when characters are removed so I don't want Toon Link taken out, but I much prefer Young Link. His controls were better, and thanks to the remake of Ocarina of Time he is the most recent child Link incarnation. Maybe they should have skins for the younger Link character, be either Toon Style or YL, but it'd take up the same slot. Or maybe, since they are supposedly doing a SSB for the 3DS too, leave either Toon or Young for that and the other for the WiiU?

What about having them both on one game? Wouldn't that be fair for both YL and TL fans?

Well, I doubt that Sakurai would ever implement it, but I had an idea where both Toon Link and Young Link would be alternate CHARACTERS to Link. As in, they don't take up a slot and are tied to Link, but they still have their own differences in playstyles (whatever they may be), voice files, etc like how the clones in Melee were like. When you choose Link, a seperate box would come up where you would choose between Link, Young Link and Toon Link. This would basically work like the three Gohans in DBZ: Budokai 1, where you could choose between Kid Gohan, Teen Gohan and Great Saiyaman when you select Gohan on the select screen

I too see Palutena as a rather heavy character. Same reason Rosalina is usually one of the heavier characters in Mario Kart, I guess. Not sure what exactly that reason IS, but whatever. She's a goddess. Such a title carries a bit of "weight" to it, y'know? And she, in my mind, would play like a SLOW AND POWERFUL character.

Unless Sakurai is dumb and makes her play with bullcrap weapons.

Aaven, most people here agree that Ridley is a likely choice for Smash
Oh really? Nice.

Not to say I wouldn't consider him a good choice for Smash, I just noticed a lot of people hating on the thought in the past.

I'm all for more baddies in Smash. King K. Rool, Ridley and Medusa would give some definite weight to the "Evil" side of the roster, because currently there's only truly about 3 or 4 villains, Bowser, Ganondorf, etc. I'd say Wario and MK are more neutral than evil since they are usually portrayed as rivals to Mario and Kirby rather than evil.
