Hey guys!
Welcome back to Top 10 Gaming, I’m Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey.
It was recently confirmed that there will be a new Super Smash Bros Game coming for
the switch.
And that would mean we’ll be seeing new Smash characters!
We already know the Inkling kids are on their way, but chances are there will be some other
familiar faces added to the game.
So let’s talk about some characters we haven’t seen yet in Smash, but we hope to see in this
new game!
If you enjoy this video, let us know by throwing us a thumbs up down below.
And if you want more, check out our video on why Sonic is the best Super Smash character!
Even though he isn’t.
But before you do that, get ready, it’s time for the Top 10 Characters we want in
Super Smash Bros Switch!
Number 10: Waluigi.
I mean… c’mon.
Just about every other Mario character has had a chance to shine in Smash.
Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Wario, even frickin Daisy.
But why no Waluigi?
Why, Nintendo?
Huh?
Is he too skinny?
Are you thin-shaming him?
I mean, in reality it’s probably more that he doesn’t really have any unique characteristics
to differentiate his abilities, but I so badly want to play Mario and Luigi against Wario
and Waluigi and I will NOT be denied.
And mods don’t count.
Number 9: Lara Croft.
Lara Croft has been a video game staple since her first game in 1996, and I think she’d
fit beautifully into the new Smash Bros. She’s a Square Enix property so it might be a bit
tricky, but she’s been in a bunch of Nintendo games already.
Plus Cloud was already let in.
Actually, now that I think of it, there’s a pretty damn good chance she’ll be in it.
Diversity: check.
Popularity: Check.
Hotness: Super Check.
Plus it would synergize well with the new game and movie.
My only concern is that there might be some issues with rights because of the movie.
Who knows?
Not me, that’s for damn sure.
Number 8: Shovel Knight.
Shovel Knight was originally an Indie game, created by Yacht Club Games, but was released
onto the 3DS and Wii U with great success.
The game won a whole whack of awards, and Shovel Knight has since made cameos in a number
of games, including Runbow and Blaster Master Zero.
So he’s got the popularity on lock, plus, his shovel kit and magic also allow for some
pretty wicked attacks.
Not only that; since he comes from an action platformer, it would be pretty easy changing
his attacks over to Smash Bros. Nice.
Number 7: Captain Toad.
We’ve been wanting to see Toad in Smash games for a while, and after the success of
his newish puzzle game Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, he’s totally set up to join.
This could even kill two birds with one stone, if they include his partner Toadette in an
Ice-Climbers-esque character.
Toad’s been left out for too long.
Number 6: Travis Touchdown.
Travis Touchdown comes from No More Heroes, in case you’re not up to date on your Wii
games.
He’s the anti-heroic protagonist of the game, and coming from a hack and slash game,
he was destined to join smash.
His beam Katana is awesome, he could have some wicked combos, and his pro wrestling
training would lead to some hilarious abilities.
Plus they could even include his dark side powers in some way, possibly having a Zelda/Shiek
type character swap, or else use it in his final smash.
He’d be pretty bonkers.
Number 5: King K.Rool.
This one’s suuuuuuch a winner, I can’t believe we haven’t seen him yet!
King K. Rool is the big bad from the Donkey Kong games, basically DK’s Bowser.
Thing is, there are a bunch of baddies already included; Mario has Bowser, Link has Ganondorf,
Fox has Wolf, and DK definitely needs his scary Crocodile villain.
He’d definitely be slow, like Bowser and Deedeedee, but he could have some cool attacks
with his tail.
And if I’m including DK’s enemy, I’d better include Sonic’s baddie…
Number 4: Dr. Robotnik.
Yep, we need more villains in Smash, and if we’re not getting K.Rool, I’d love me
some Eggman.
Or both!
Both is good!
Eggman could be a lot of fun, you could have all sorts of abilities stemming from his various
technological inventions, plus his lumbering mass would look hilarious scuttling across
a stage.
Even if Eggman isn’t in the game, they should definitely include another Sonic character.
And you know who that should be?
Number 3: Shadow the Hedgehog.
Yeah, you guys probably aren’t too surprised about this one since I like Shadow a fair
bit, but I think Sonic needs a buddy.
Mario has Luigi, Fox has Falco, Kirby has Deedeedee, Link has Zelda AND a cartoon version
of himself, for goodness sake; and I think Sonic needs Shadow.
He could have some pretty cool abilities using chaos control, and I think it would be a great
addition to the roster.
And I’d probably main him.
Number 2: At least one new Pokemon.
Yeah, we’ve seen our fair share of Pokemon over the years of Smash.
They took up a sixth of the first game’s roster.
And for good reason, Pokemon rocks and is a Nintendo staple.
So we’ll probably be getting a new one from the newer games.
A lot of people want Litten, but personally I think Alolan Dugtrio would be perfect.
Mechanically it would be totally useless, but aesthetically…
well, those golden locks speak for themselves.
Number 1: Crash Bandicoot.
Yeah, this one might be a bit of a longshot, but a nerd can dream.
It would be awesome to finally see Crash, Sonic, and Mario fight in the great battle
of the mascots, but Sony will probably hang onto Crash pretty tightly.
True, they let Snake go into Smash Bros, but with Crash being such a significant character,
there’s a good chance Nintendo will have to shell out some pretty big bucks if they
want him in the new game.
But I’d love it.
Because I really like Crash.
Plus now that the N.Sane trilogy’s going over to the switch, the door’s at least
open a crack.
That’s it for today!
