I think we might need a few more rules for a future Smash Ballot. Here are my ideas: General rules: 1. If the character is from a franchise that has 4 or more characters, then it cannot be added. 2. The character must not have been in a previous Smash game. Third Party Rules: 1. If competing developers are working on any projects involving this character, or this character's franchise it

  • General Rules: 3. Franchises that cannot get a new character: Franchises that have 4 or more reps: Mario, Zelda, PKMN, Fire Emblem Franchises that aren't popular enough and don't have enough games: Kid Icarus, Wii Fit, Pikmin

  • It feels like Smash went from being a good fighter with nintendo icons/all-stars, to being a tool for shameless marketing. Corrin is not iconic, Bayonetta is not iconic, I don't care how "cool" the character is or what flavor of the month anime character happens to be new or up and coming, stick to icons, even 3rd party icons are better than this junk.

  • I put that rule there, because it's likly any cut veterans would be worked on for DLC. OR, at least planned for DLC. Also, PKMN Trainer violates General rule 1, and 3.

  • @AGES I don't get where you're coming from. What shameless marketing? I read Corrin was the Ballot winner for Japan, and Sakurai said Bayonetta was the winner for Europe and the whole world.

  • I Cry... at the stupidity of AGES's comment... Bayonetta won the ballot, thats why she was added. And, as for Corrin, he probably had high demand in japan.

  • @{HSS} Mr.3 I'm kind of surprised King K. Rool didn't win the Ballot, but I'm really happy we got Bayonetta. Bayonetta 2 was Wii U exclusive which probably helped Nintendo a lot, she's obviously a fan favorite, and I like how out of place she looks. It's kind of cool getting a new M Rated character that has more of a history with Nintendo.

  • You don't see the marketing angle for Corrin? And regardless of popularity, neither are iconic in any way. As I said, popularity should not be a factor since popularity can wane over time but icons will always be icons.

  • In the Direct, Sakurai said Bayonetta won the Ballot worldwide. I read on Miiverse that Corrin won the Ballot in Japan.

  • The main character for a new game is being released as playable in smash the same month the game is released. Thats convenient. I find the ballot suspiciously in favor of that situation. And all we have is the devs word, the same dev that said no bullets in smash, and yet, they add Bayo. I can't trust their word.

  • Still, the Ballot was there for a reason.

  • Respectfully, unless you can prove the ballot was utilized honestly and properly tallied, all you have is the word of the devs who flip flop. If you trust them regardless of the convenient marketing favor for FE then so be it. Personally I think it was purely a business decision, no ballot mattered.

  • So a lot of people have been wondering why Ridley is not the Ballot winner.

  • @SimoЖ#WiiU I guess he wasn't that much of a fan favorite.
