I hope Sakurai makes Ridley
1st and 2nd comments? Wow!
I think sakurai will save inklings for smash 5.
@GamePerson19
That's not going to happen. It's been stated over and over why, but it's because Ridley wouldn't be able to fit on the 3DS screens.
@ThomasBW84 You might wanna update the article title since you misspelled Octoling.
@CrazyMetroid we already have a bird and furry animal combo. And just because Microsoft says it's ok I still don't want them in.
crosses fingers for Raguna

K ROOL! What? He said that we could screech who we wanted in the comments.

Lol guys stop bashing other peopl's opinion, we can say who we want in smash. That's what the Ballot's for like someone could say ,"I want Shovel Knight" and then other people would say, "His game isn't in Japan and he doesn't deserve it." Just shut up, people can have their own opinions, no need to bring them down because of it
All I want in Smash is a character that people aren't gonna accuse of being a clone.
Shantae! Come on Shantae!
@TheAceofMystery Totally Agree!
Everyone is allowed a opinion and can have a preference but if they make it into the game is another matter
crosses fingers
Come on Slippy,Peppy or Wolf...
Come on...
@Cloud02 Unless that character is Shrek.
@TheTeaStirrer Agreed!!
Professor Layton! No? Ok.
@TheTeaStirrer
Or Shia Lebeof
I voted endlessly for Shovel Knight and Shantae. I also voted for Simon Belmont a ton of times but with everything going on with Konami I doubt it could happen. He'd be such a great character though..
@Fernink I've been seeing Professor Layton a lot lately. I've never played one of his games, but as far as I know it's a puzzle game. What would his appeal be in a fighting game? Not bashing, just genuinely curious.
Sora for Smash! I hope he wins!
@KickButt_Gaming Oh god, I've also seen people who want John Cena and Superman to get in...maybe this Smash Ballot wasn't a good thing to organise, lol!
Bow down to your favorite Kremling King, everyone! We all know K. Rool's the one who'll Kroc the vote!

@TheTeaStirrer No shrek I rather have snake or another Mario.
Starman and the rest of the cast of NES Pro Wrestling!
Now that the Ballot is over, I wonder how much time we'll need to wait before Sakurai unveils the next smasher, let alone who he or she is.
@Torterror
Same here. They'll need that big new fighter to draw everyone in once smash 5 comes
Leggo Shantae!
According to european CET the ballot is running another 30 min.
I waited till the very last end to vote, and ended up voting for Banjo Kazooie. The most iconic and important character to the plattform / jump 'n run-genre, besides Mario and Donkey Kong on Nintendo platforms.
I voted Banjo-Kazooie when it first opened up, why because there characters I'm familiar with and enjoyed their N64 games.
I voted for Toadette/Toad... though I doubt they'll get in, they'd really be the only ones I'd pay for anyway. I don't want to spend anymore money on a this game as the DLC is expensive as it is.
Am I the only one who asked for Fin and Jake?! I would probably cry... 😂
Please make Skull Kid!
#strongbad4smash
Rayman
I voted for Virdi, but she got the lovely "mii-treatment..."
Yet, my hopes are still up, and if not her, hopefully Shantae, another Sonic character, or/and Waddle Dee!
I never voted or even bothered looking at the page but if I had ,I would have gone for the one and only Dr Robotnik.He would be a fantastic addition!
C'mon Sora! (Also hoping for either Shantae, Shovel Knight, Snake, or Bandana Dee)
The one character I want is Isaac (golden sun)
I voted Wonder Red, but there is so much they can do with him. Custom Robo would've been cool too. There would be all kinds of customs.
@Gerbwmu yes... I voted for the Amazon
@TheAceofMystery Whatever. I'm gonna ramble now. It's late enough hardly anyone will read it.
Anyways Ridley's already in the game, Daisy's boring, and Shovel Knight might be a good game(I haven't played it) but I don't want any overhyped indie characters in this. I mean, it's not entirely fair of me to say that since I didn't play the game and the devs seem cool, but Indie's like a dirty word to me right now. I guess I'd be okay if he got in. I don't really have anything against him, I just don't like it because. I also kind of want Shantae so I'm a bit of a hypocrite. King K. Rool is okay but he's ugly(yes) so I'm not sure I want him in the game...I want Inkling, and maybe Viridi but my reason for wanting Viridi doesn't really fly so I just voted Inkling. Raguna is cool because Rune Factory is one of the greatest things ever. From Kingdom Hearts Riku's cooler than Sora, but if a Kingdom Hearts character gets in Riku'll unqualify himself and Sora will be chosen instead.(again) Oh and Banjo and Kazooie. I love them.
@TheTeaStirrer Your time is up my time is now.
Princess Daisy for Sm4sh!
what's with the poster of shovel knight holding the smash logo T_T i'd be very very disappointed if he wins.. seriously.. i'd prefer anyone that actually has a character. ANYONE!!
@whiffy5 Damn. I was going to suggest Stryfe.
I voted for Tails, Knuckles and Dr Robotnik.
Any indie character would suck
Isaac, K Rool, Andy, Inkling are the best choices.
@CrazyMetroid Troll. Don't take notice of him.
I voted for Toad, but I don't think he will make it.
Can't wait to see the results.
I'd be happy with some sort of Metroid character, Simon Belmont, or Rayman.
@GoshDangTravino Sounds like what people said about Wii Fit Trainer haha but actually he has a variety of things he could do, pointing his finger would be a notable inclusion, He could have a flying machine similar to Wario's bike. Honestly, I think there are better characters than Layton but Sakurai could find ways to make it work.
I voted for Soren from Fire emblem 9.
I really thought Shovel Knight was already voted as a Smash fighter. There already is an amiibo listed on Nintendo's website.
edit: I guess it wasn't for Smash.
@Kylo_Ren So uh, everyone who doesn't want Ridley is a troll?
Sora will never be in Smash
Alex weekly video always manages to bring a smile to my face, thanks!
@Bryon15 I also voted for Isaac, so I would assume there are more like you and I Here's hoping!
Hoping for Banjo-Kazooie, Rayman, and Bomberman.
@CrazyMetroid No, I am just saying how rude you were to certain members (siavim), they are entitled to there opinions, so don't be rude like that.
That would make me think that you a troll, or a rude person, but I go for the latter.
Cranky would be funny to see fighting with his cane and using it as a Pogo Stick on opponents.
K. Rool, Inkling, or Shovel Knight are my top choices.
LILAC FROM FREEDOM PLANET 4 SMASH!!!
(Yeah, I'm excited.)
@GamePerson19 He wont....
@Torterror When Scott makes FNAF 6
Please make it, Klonoa!
@Fernink I'd be totally up for Layton.
