10 Obscure Characters That Deserve To Join The Wii Fit Trainer In 'Super Smash Bros. Wii U'

Here are a few other super obscure non-playable Nintendo characters that should also join the Wii Fit Trainer in the Smash Bros. line-up.

Exodecai3981d ago

Referee Mario?!?! If Mario is to get sort of second slot for himself, I'll only accept Paper Mario since a unique moveset can actually be made out of him... and Mr. Game & Watch will have a buddy

Dj7FairyTail3981d ago

Paper Mario is a spin off character not happening

DEATHxTHExKIDx3981d ago

I was actually thinking about K.K slider being a fighter in smash bros.

kirbyu3980d ago

Being a guy who really wants Miis added to the roster, having 1 specific Mii, who I've never liked much, would be a huge slap in the face.

ZeMegaMan3972d ago

This kinda reminds me on how deformed a mii's face can get through customizing. Imagine a person's face like a deformed mii IRL? lol.

Soupaman663972d ago

what I would like is a character called mii and you select the mii costume saved on your wiiu so your mii is actually playing. the moves would be the same whichever mii you use. One cool thing is to have background mii characters in the stage

Venoxn4g3980d ago

bayonetta and travis touchdown please :)

CaptainN3980d ago

They need to add Captain N & Non Specific Action Figure !!

Other then them I'm sure Ballon Kid and Lil Mac would make some fans happy....how about Donkey Kong jr as well :)

Don't care what anyone says, Smash isn't a traditional fighting game. May as well call Powerstone and Playstation All Stars fighting games. They're more of an arena fighter /party game.

NotoriousWhiz361d ago

You don't have to care what anyone says. It's not a traditional fighting game. But it is a fighting game.

Not according to the creator, Sakurai. Link below

I mean what makes them an arena fighter than say something like Tekken? Because there’s platforms?

NatsuXTheMaxspeed21361d ago

because theres a bunch of pokeballs and other random stupid stuff on stage that you can use at your advantage and flying ultra super power ball that you got to chase on the stage to get your ougi LMAO.

CrimsonWing69361d ago

@NatsuXTheMaxspeed21

I mean what it sounds like is they took a fighting game and “added” unique mechanics to it to me.

When I think arena game I think of things like Spawn: In the Demon’s Hand or Virtual-On.

Smash to me is a fighting game, they have fighting game tournaments for it. It just doesn’t jive with me to call it “not a fighting game” because you have poke-balls and platforms or because it has 4 players at once duking it out.

Power Stone I’d consider a fighting game as well. Hell, if you google what it is everyone calls these games “fighting games”. So yea, they’re fighting games…

Immagaiden361d ago

What’s next, you gonna say Mario Kart isn’t a racing game?

NatsuXTheMaxspeed21361d ago

oh its a racer but its not a realistic one like GT or Forza. only kids check for mario kart and smash .

Immagaiden361d ago

I didn’t say it was realistic. I said racing game. Does Burnout not being realistic make it not a racing game?

What does a demographic have to do with a genre? Do kids playing CoD make it any less an FPS? You see how ridiculous bringing up that subject is?

repsahj360d ago

"Only kids and kids at heart check for mario kart and smash".

-fixed!

FallenAngel1984360d ago (Edited 360d ago )

Nobody said it was a traditional fighter. Everyone acknowledges it as a platform fighter

PSASBR & Power Stone are fighting games, the former being a platform fighter and the latter an arena fighter

gleepot360d ago

You're correct, it isn't traditional. It's a fighting game though.

repsahj360d ago

Because if cute and lovable characters are fighting it's not a fighting game? XD As long there's a versus fighting, it is a fighting game.

Including Smash Bros in a list of fighting games, is like including GTA in Racing games.

NotoriousWhiz361d ago

I hate to break it to you but smash bros has fighting game tournaments so it qualifies.

MrNinosan361d ago

"and here's how it competes against other fighters"

No, Mortal Kombat doesn't compete with games like Smash Bros? It's a different genre for a different audience.

NatsuXTheMaxspeed21361d ago

Anybody can host a tournament in their garage it doesnt mean it qualifies.

NotoriousWhiz361d ago

I'm going to assume you're not part of the FGC. However, I am, and I can tell you that there is a ton of overlap between people who play smash competitively and those who play other fighting games competitively.

Now for casuals, there is a lot less overlap between the two for sure.

PapaBop361d ago

While technically true, Leffen comes to mind, FGC and Smash community have always had a rocky relationship.

Thundercat77361d ago

And yet, If Smash Bros was over 80 million, you wouldn't be complaining. On the contrary, you would be bragging about it.

Immagaiden361d ago

Bad comparison. You do a LOT of things in GTA outside of a car while fighting is what you’re mainly doing in SSB

Ezio2048361d ago

Given the volume of games released, I would say Tekken has sold the best.

lodossrage361d ago (Edited 361d ago )

Yeah, that's a good point. Most of these games have parts to the franchise outside of traditional fighting games.

Like for example, with Mortal Kombat, do Special Forces, Mythologies: Sub: zero, and the Kollection count?

With Tekken does death by degrees or the tag tournament games count?

With Street Fighter, are we counting all the iterations of 2, 3, and 4? how about the ex series or alpha series?

There are a lot of variables at play here

Ezio2048361d ago

Even after including Tekken Tag, they have less titles compared to all MK and SF games.

CS7360d ago

Yeah, i realized that too. Very interesting.
