Poll: Which ARMS Fighter Should Join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?

I'm going to keep saying it but I believe it will be like the Hero is and it wont be just one character. Which ones will they choose is more what I'm thinking.

It will be all of them as skins.

Kid Cobra is my favorite, but I wouldn't be surprised if MinMin got the spot.

I also think it’ll be multiple skins.

Helix obviously.

Although hopefully it will be 8 different skins. I actually think ARMS is a great choice, not so much because of the characters but because the fighter would have such a unique moveset and fighting style.

I think it is going to be like Bowser Jr, that means there can only be 9, including the non skin variant, so the real question is which six are not going to get in...

Thank you for making this poll, and for the kind soul who highlighted my comment to the NL staff to make it.

There will totally be less than 10 skins. And Ninjara better be one of them.

I’m also thinking it’ll be multiples maybe even a echo fighter coming out of this. The only thing I don’t see how they’d do byte and bark because he’s more unique and master mummy has more weight.

@panthro Or at least 8.

I want Min Min but I think that Max Brass will make it in and his Final Smash will be Hedlok and it's rush move.

Twintelle could still be in if she is animated to where she throws her punches from arm-level. Not voting, though - I'll leave that to the franchise's fans (especially if they want to shake up the choice for the MC role, which would be refreshing).

It will be springman, as this fighter pass will totally destroy the argument that spirits and assist trophies deconfirm. Smash is a game where you can have Solid Snake, Bayonnetta, Ridley, Mega Man, Cloud Strife, Banjo Kazooie, Sonic, and Mario all fight while summoning a Rathalos from an assist trophy on a stage based on Hannonbow while Megolovania plays in the background. Why is it that we can't have Springman Summon Springman?

I think Min Min is most likely, and either it will be just her, with the different costumes each having different arms that have different affects on opponents, or every costume will be a different character, though I think this is less likely.

I wish there was a option for "none of the above".

I voted Min Min. I see Twintelle is also highly voted, but I don't think she'll make it in sadly. I think she doesn't have a real shot simply because I don't believe Nintendo will make the first ARMS representative be a character that doesn't actually use their Arms. I don't think Mechanica will be the rep for similar reasons. Of course, this gets thrown out the window if they decide to just throw them all in there.

For me, Master Mummy and going by the poll results, I'm on my own.

Isn't it time to move on?

1. If it is Spring Man and they promote him from assist trophy, that means theres hope for Waluigi!!!

2. My guess is the multiple character format others have talked about. But if it's a single character, my guess is Min Min.

3. My vote went for Max Brass, to add another villain and heavy.

option for none?

Twintelle. Please Gaming Gods... Twintelle

Don't really care that much which character it is but I don't think it's Twintelle since she doesn't even use her arms. Voted for Ribbon Girl since I'm boring.

It'll probably be springman, with alts for ribbon girl, ninjara and min min. The rest will show up as stage cameos, and the springman assist trophy will either be unaffected or not summonable when the arms fighter is in play.

I voted MinMin. I made a concept for her moveset: https://www.reddit.com/r/SmashBrosUltimate/comments/fv72g7/minmin_moveset_concept/

Ribbon girl without a doubt

Twintelle, all day, everyday. Chocolate girls represent!

It's a first party character. They can do all of them as alts.

If Spirits deconfirm, then it's most likely Helix. Otherwise, it's most likely Min Min. Don't understand why people think it'll be a bunch of the characters as alts. I haven't even played ARMS and yet I know every character has some sort of mechanic unique to them, and they all also have clearly distinct personalities that wouldn't shine through if they were all locked to the same costume. Some wouldn't even be possible as alts because they'd need all their animations redone (Twintelle) or be too big (Master Mummy). This isn't a situation like the Koopalings, who fit with Bowser Jr.'s moveset perfectly aside from Shadow Mario Paint, or Simon/Richter, who fill the few gaps in each other's moveset. This would be a set of characters all taking cues from each other, and that's not how Smash does things - Smash always tries to best represent its characters and rarely does it fall flat or make an exception. People thought Terry would get a Garou or female set of alts, and some thought Banjo could have an alt or two with dragon Kazooie, and quite clearly those didn't pan out. I just can't see it being like Hero.

Min Min, Helix or Twintelle

Why can't we just have all of them. Would be easy to do. Get to work Sakurai

Funny none of them look like any fire emblem characters I’ve ever seen before

Hard to tell, none of them have swords.

None! They should go back on this and pick a franchise that was culturally relevant at any point in time... is what I'd like to say, but they already announced it and it would look awful if they went back on it.

@PikaPhantom I still am a little sad they didn't make a Dragon-Kazooie alt. That would have been awesome.

I think it’s going to be a multi character.

And not the Lola Pop/Lanky Kong multi character of my dreams.

I think we’re also going to get a “Tales of” multi character in this pass.

Twintelle for me. Is this even a question? She's the best.

My guess is that Nintendo's going to pull a funny funny on us and announce a new character to the Arms franchise and announce Arms 2 along with it

I think we'll get Min Min given she won that Party Crash Bash championship last year. Hoping for Helix though.

Gotta rep my main Byte and Barq. They'd offer another dual character setup - possibly more akin to the Ice Climbers than Rosalina and Luma.

Helix troll vote.

You know EXACTLY who I want.

Lady T-W-I-N-T-E-L-L-E!

Twintelle!

I would love for my main to join smash.

They’ll go the skin route (Bowser Jr) for sure, but I hope Helix is one of them.

@Hagemaru I think they didn't specify to keep us wondering, but at the same time to also imply it's not the mascot/main character.

My top personal pick would be Helix, but Min-Min seems like the safest bet (I'd say Ribbon Girl, but why announce it like this if it's gonna be the character on the box?).

Spring man as main, and all the characters as costumes.

Min min for the win win

None of these characters. It will be the new main character of Arms 2 that will be announced in June during the Nintendo Direct that would have been the E3 Direct.

The announcement of an Arms character was pretty underwhelming by Smash standards. That's because they can't do a new Nintendo Direct without announcing new Smash DLCs, but they can't reveal the new character yet, because Arms 2 isn't revealed. In June, Arms 2 will be revealed and the new main character will be playable in Smash shortly afterwards. If they do that, it would be pretty big.

Arms 1 is pretty dead right now, there's no reason to promote it with a new character. But for Arms 2, that would make a lot of sense.

I’ll throw Spring Man out there. If he’s selected as a fighter, Springtron can take his place in the assist trophy lineup. It’s basically a new version of what they did with Toon Link for the Spirit Tracks stage.

And then watch the floodgates open

Spring Man
DUH!
come on Sakurai, show them that the Assist Trophy rule isn't a thing

@Spoony_Tech I had the same thought. It will probably be the top 8 most popular characters.

Then again, wasn't Min Min voted the all-time best character?

Twintelle is not going to be it because she doesn't really represent ARMS as well as most others since she doesn't fight with her.. well, arms. I wouldn't mind if she got chosen but others probably fit the slot better.

Min Min seems the most obvious choice to me aside from Spring Man and Ribbon Girl but those two are already in as an Assist and Mii Fighter costume obviously. Of course there's no hard proof that this prevents them from being added. If this was base roster stuff I would've said it would definitely have been Spring Man, but DLC tends to follow its own set of rules and can choose someone who's not the mascot of a series. Min Min just seems the most obvious. And honestly I think she would be a great addition!

This is the best fighting game ever made. Nintendo never disappoints. Please add Rex next Sakurai, don't be a lazy dude.

@WickedUnicarnBoi If they did that, Twintelle would probably be cut because she fights with her hair, not her arms.

I still think Biff (the Arms mascot) has a chance to be playable.

For me whichever one would look good as an Amiibo. As I still collect those and don't play the game.

Development is taking a while, they said. The virus is a factor, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was also them making eight skins.
EDIT: Min Min for the win win.

@riggah
Why do you think that Biff "has a chance to be playable"? 🤔

@Spoony_Tech I'm going to keep responding to these sentiments: I doubt it.

Sakurai puts so much effort into making a character reflect their source, and to strip fighters of their abilities by making them skins wouldn't reflect that. There are too many body types to really make that work in a way that gives characters authenticity.

Even past that element, removing abilities would also detract from movesets. Min min for example could have kicks for jabs and tilts; Twintelle could have a witch-time; Max Brass could have rage and super-armour.

I could be wrong, as Sakurai makes magic, but I just don't see it working in a way that's exciting in this case.

Max Brass. Hes a Chad that should be I the game along side his brother captain falcon

@rockonnaissance Helix wouldn't be Helix because he can't stretch, Master Mummy and Max Brass wouldn't have weight, Mechanica and Dr. Coyal wouldn't have jets, Min Min wouldn't kick, Ninjara wouldn't vanish, Misango wouldn't use mask, the list goes on

I want Twintelle to get the slot soooo badly.

Guys, if Spring Man becomes the next fighter, not only will the Assist Trophy rule break like @ItalianBaptist said, it will also break the Mii Costume and the Spirits rule. 🤯
So, the floodgates would be HUGE if Spring Man becomes the next fighter.

Really leaning toward the Bowser Jr/Olimar/Hero thought that alt skins will be different fighters that all play the same. They could go as many as 8 different ARMS fighters, one for each skin. Seems feasible. If they did, i do think Spring Man would be one of them, and in doing so, they'd replace his Assist Trophy with another ARMS fighter that would behave exactly the same, but isn't one of the 8 skins. Maybe Max Brass could become the Assist Trophy since he kinda has a bulkier build and wouldn't make for as easy of a skin swap for the alt skins of the fighter.

If i had to pick 8 fighters that could work in such a way, I have to look for fighters with the same slender body type, since most of them have that, and without a weird gimmick so that each fighter can easily be remapped in their animations. This means that Twintelle sadly would not get included. So reasonably, I think the 8 skins would be: Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, Ninjara, Min Min, Kid Cobra, Lola Pop, Misango, and Springtron. Helix has the right body type, but he's also way more stretchy and bouncy with his movement, so I don't think he'd make the cut, though he'd be great to fight as, as well.

@ACNHislit Yeah, I've been saying the same thing. And I think that's exactly what they intend to do. They want the fans to think for the entirety of the second fighter pass that all bets are off. The many hurt by the placement of Waluigi as an assist trophy would suddenly have renewed hope. i don't honestly care much about him, but it would mean that some of my favorites could potentially become fighters again: Isaac, Bomberman, and Skull Kid specifically.

Min Min, Spring Man and Ninjara are spirits already, so not them. Ribbon Girl has an outfit for mii brawlers, so not really her either. Picking out of the remaining, I liked Master Mummy and Byte & Barq. I've never played the game so going on aesthetics. Seems like it might end up being Twintelle judging by votes, though.

@Jayofmaya Ya gotta keep in mind, that never once has it been confirmed that already existing spirits can't be fighters, mii outfits can't be fighters (They obviously already can be with costumes like K. Rool and Link already in there), or that Assist trophies can't be fighters.

The only real hurdle if they wanted to turn any of those into a fighter is the existence of assist trophies confusing a match if an assist trophy appears that is also the fighter someone chose.

But the solution to that is simple: when the new fighter drops, swap out the assist trophy with another character that behaves the exact same way, so that nothing about the core gameplay is lost with the addition of the fighter. So, if Spring Man becomes a fighter, then make his assist trophy another ARMS fighter instead that behaves the same way: Max Brass, Twintelle, Springtron, etc. etc.

Frankly I think we're in store for such a move too because they want us to be going wild with speculation for this fighter pass. All those big Waluigi fans hurt he didn't make the cut? Suddenly they're excited and hopeful again. Of course in that example, I'm not entirely sure who you'd replace his assist trophy with. Best idea I've come up with would be turn the Waluigi Assist Trophy into Spike from Wrecking Crew if Waluigi became a fighter. Way more obscure of a character, but Mario related all the same, and you could have him whack you with his pick axe instead of a tennis racket while still damaging in the same exact way. There are definitely ways for the assist trophy to fighter transition to work in theory without losing any established gameplay in the process.

@status-204 Even if you don't care about any of them, perhaps there exists an assist trophy you'd like see become a fighter as any of the other 5 remaining DLC fighters? Maybe you're a Waluigi fan, or Isaac, or Bomberman, or Skull kid, or Shovel Knight, or maybe another Assist Trophy altogether.

If that does describe you in some way, then even though you don't care about ARMS, you should still be cheering for Spring Man to become a fighter so that the assist trophy you do like has a genuine chance confirmed of making it in as a fighter despite initially being in the game as only an assist trophy.

2% on Mechanica?? Come on people, she'd make the best Amiibo

I voted for the best girl, Ribbon Girl

@daebiya Ya gotta keep in mind, that Nintendo probably wants to showcase the ARMS series with a fighter that actually fights with their real arms, and not robotics.

@status-204 I understand, but that's really neither here nor there. My point was do you have any already established assist trophies you'd like to see as a fighter in Ultimate? If there is, then even though you don't like any of the ARMS fighter choices, you should be cheering for Spring Man to be the fighter as that would prove that assist trophies can indeed make the promotion, since he currently is an assist trophy in the game.

@Spoony_Tech They can’t with all the different proportions.

@tobsesta99 They could easily get 8 fighters with similar enough proportions to fit that model. And if not 8, they could do 4, or even just 2. Like Spring Man and Ribbon Girl have such similar proportions that they could easily be alts of each other. I'd argue that they could easily get 6 others with those same proportions: Ninjara, Min Min, Kid Cobra, Lola Pop, Misango, and Springtron.

Dr. Coyle's my top pick. Then Lola Pop, then Master Mummy, and finally Mechanica.
Any of them I'd be thrilled with!

Where did this idea regarding the ARMS fighter being like Bowser Jr. and Hero come from? It's the worst possible idea for a character from this game.

How about all of them to make up for one sixth of the second Fighters Pass being first-party?

Of course, ARMS as a franchise is a million times more endearing than Fire Emblem's over-representation. Coming right after Byleth, though, doesn't do the ARMS fighter any favours (COVID-19 be damned!). Here's hoping for more third-party fighters for crazier combinations - sure, being a Nintendo reunion is what Smash is all about, but the day for it to be entirely about the Big N will come. Just not this time. This time we have to be able to pit Mega Man against Mario on a Sonic stage, or say, Sora against Banjo, Crash Bandicoot versus Pac-Man, Link against Master Chief, whatever.

I'm all for this pass being only assist trophies getting promoted to fighter. The trouble is finding an appropriate character to replace the assist trophy and give the same exact effect. Like I'd love if this was the fighter pass:

Spring Man fighter / Max Brass becomes assist trophy
Bomberman fighter / Max from Bomberman Max games becomes assist trophy
Isaac fighter / Felix or Matthew from the Golden Sun games becomes assist trophy
Skull Kid fighter / Vaati becomes assist trophy
Shovel Knight fighter / Black Knight becomes the assist trophy
Waluigi fighter / Spike from Wrecking Crew becomes fighter

@WickedUnicarnBoi I'd imagine anyone with a larger frame like Mechanica and Master Mummy would be left out if they went that route.

A Hero/Bowser Jr-like character wouldn't work for ARMS...sure, they're all similar, but each has different abilities that are unique to them. They aren't going to give every character Twintelle's floating, Dr. Coyle's invisibility, Master Mummy's shield healing, etc.

On the subject of the poll, I think Dr. Coyle is most likely, although I voted for Lola Pop. If Assists/Spirits do end up being allowed in, Spring Man is a shoe-in, with Springtron replacing his Assist Trophy.

well, i think that it will be spring man but with every fighter skin

Please be a female, Smash is turning into Super Sausage Bros Ultimate.

how could people not vote for master mummy the healing while blocking would be marvelous.

Not voting on Spring Man for obvious reasons, Ribbon Girl, Min Min, Twintelle, and Ninjara are also not getting my vote due to also being in Smash. as Spirits you can mostly fight against.

Things will get weird if...
Spring Man can summon Spring Man the assist trophy.

Ribbon Girl can fight against the Ribbon Girl spirit.

Summoning Ninjara as a spirit with Ninjara already in the fighter roster.

Fighting the Min-Min and Twintelle spirits as Min-Min or Twintelle.

Canonically; Spirits are these characters without their physical forms.

Twintelle not currently winning!?? I’m genuinely shocked.

should be either min min or twintelle . ribbon girl and springman are bland as hell.

@ACNHislit
Nintendo likes to do unexpected things (Piranha Plant, Wii Fit Trainer, Mr G&W). I can see Nintendo saying it is from ARMS and then cross out each character one by one and then zoom in on biff on the top. (I don't think it is Biff, but I think he is more likely than some of the playable characters)

I think the best iption would be someone that exemplifies the game well and diversifies the Smash roster the most, so either Helix (because there's no other creature like him in Smash), or Min Min (since she's a girl, and a popular one at that).
I'd personally never choose Twintelle because, aside from the booty memes, she doesn't even use her arms, so she wouldn't exemplify the game as much as Min Min.
If it were up to me, though, I'd go with Lola Pop, I love her design.

Edit: I don't think a multiple character in the vein of Bowser Jr. would work, as these are all pretty different characters with different abilities. At least to me, it'd be weird if Twintelle was a costume for, say, Helix.
It'd only work with Springman and Ribbon Girl,in my opinion.

Also, I sure hope it's not Springman because
1) he's the most boring character
2) Waluigi nutheads won't stop pestering Sakurai and the whole world about it

Please Sakurai, please please please, never ever put Waluigi in, people would get the wrong lesson from that.

Spring Man/Ribbon Girl would be the ideal representation but I'm sure they'll play it gender safe and go with Helix

Just give me another ARMS, the superior Nintendo fighting game

byte and barq main here, minmin makes the most sense to me, powering up after doing a throw makes sense as a gimmick too

I went with Twintelle on this one.

Dr. Coyle would be awesome, she'd be the first playable female villain and mad scientist in Smash history.

My first vote is for Twintelle, but Ribbon Girl would be cool too.

I think it would be cool if it was Headlock and could use abilities from all of them. If I had to pick from the list though, I would choose Byte and Bark.

i do hope my british wifu Twintelle get's in <3 she bae and i just love her >V<! ahh

I vote for Ribbon Girl because she's cute. No other reason because the characters in this game are all about visuals and nothing else. This game had no story or much of any lore - so that's why I lost interest in it real quick. ARMS makes Super Mario look like a deep and complex world...

Should: Min Min
Want: Twintelle

I think making a Hero/Bowser Jr. concept for the ARMS cast would be the worst direction they could take.

TWINTELLE

We need a very different character on that roster and Twintelle is unique. I mean Min Min is cool but looks like half the cast already. Another blonde fighter? We already have Link, Samus, Ken, Simon, Shulk, Peach, etc

Please choose a character that stands out. Twintelle is older, brown, different hair color, a female character. Almost the whole last pass was all males except Kazooie but she's a bird in a duo.

Seeing a character with the reach of any Arms character will be wild! I'm really curious how they'll balance that in the game. Seems OP to just reach all the way across the stage and hit someone lol but I trust Sakurai do handle this.

I say Spring Man!

Min min because she incorporates her legs too, so variety in her direction moves. Master mummy for another heavyweight and hopefully he has tough guy like Bowser. Ninjara as I see him as another Greninja minus the water moves, max brass as a shiny Capt falcon but ganondorf speed and power. Bark and byte as another ice climber or duck hunt pair.

@panthro That would be a fantastic twist.

My vote is towards Min Min, Twintelle, or Lola Pop, but I think Min Min should ultimately get the spot because she won the big ARMS tourney. It'd be best for the fan base and could get people more invested in future Nintendo sponsored (esport-ish) events

I'd like Springman. If Toon Link is in play on the train, Alfonzo becomes the engineer. Springman/Sprintron can be the assist trophy, depending on player characters.

It'll probably be a Pokémon Trainer style fighter, with different skins for different fighters, and Biff would be commentating on it.

Surprised and happy to see Min Min so high in the polls!

I think it will either be Spring Man or Ribbon Girl though, or maybe the two as alt skins of each other. Ribbon Girl is arguably slightly more interesting in her mechanics but Spring Man is arguably the face of the game.

If it is spring Man though, for me at least, that brings a whole new level of excitement, as Spring Man is already an assist trophy. If he becomes a fully fledged fighter it means that others like Bomberman, Dillon and Shovel Knight could all make it too! And it would mean we'd probably get new assist fighters to replace them.

I'd assume them to add a handful of ARMS characters, as echoes of each other, with individual minor tweaks to weight/handling/damage ratios.

A beefy first outing, to really get the new expansion pass selling.

Where is the "NONE" option, as they are already in a fighting game, and this is just a cop out

Min Min won the thing!!! And she's a super fun character to play as. It has to be her! Really, as long as it's not Spring Man, Ninjara, or Springtron, I'll be happy. Those guys are boring. Everyone else is cool.

edit: Wait, this is Smash Brothers. What's the closest thing to an ARMS character that carries a sword? Because obviously that's who will make the cut.

@duffmmann I could see Spring Man and Springtron working, it’s just that the characters wouldn’t feel right sharing the same animations, especially if they only represent one character well.

Dude, Spring Man ofcourse

@Bunkerneath
What about Terry, Ryu, and Ken? 🤔
They're already in fighting games.
So, I'm kind of confused by your logic, regarding the ARMS character. 🤔
EDIT: That didn't come off as harsh, did it?
That wasn't my intention, at all.

Either Min Min or.... Dr. Coyle! Smash needs more villainous girls.

I've already seen this here but I'm going to say it again: Spring Man is the face of the entire game and if they aren't adding him, it will be the face of the next game. I've come up with a few possible names:
Stretch Boi
Stretch Gurl
Plastic thing
Mr. Fabulous

You're welcome

Dr Coyle, so we can have both a vilain and a female character to represent Arms in Smash.

@alexybubble Spring Man is too boring to represent Arm, is better choose another character like Twintelle or Dr. Coyle.

@kalosn i agree and also more vilains.

I'm ok with ARMS fighters joining Smash and the more the merrier, but I really don't care who it is. The most popular ones are in the game already, as spirits at least (Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, MinMin, Ninjara, Twintelle), so Fighters Pass #2 probably starts off with upgrading spirits, ATs and Mii costumes to fighters. And here's where I start to care: If spirits/costumes can now be fighters, then Chibi-Robo can still join Ultimate and justice will be restored.

Of course they could also take Helix or Max Brass, and follow this up with more 3rd Party characters, and we'll see no spirits/AT/costume upgrades at all.

Spring Man's actually a lot higher than I thought he'd be-3rd place, just like the original popularity poll for ARMS, lol. As for the Bouncer himself, the only concrete thing holding him back is the Assist Trophy argument, and that has a simple fix-replace the trophy with Springtron whenever Spring Man's fighting. Springtron's super shockwave would be difficult to bring into Smash anyway.

People have brought up the idea of having multiple characters as one unit, like with Bowser Jr., but I lean towards the opinion that the unique characteristics of ARMS fighters would be lost. The characters aren't super different, but the nuances are there, even with Spring Man and Springtron.

One idea I've considered for something similar is going nuts with Echo Fighters. My idea-Spring Man as the base, being focused on the ground, and Ribbon Girl being an air fighter, similar to the game. After that, bring in Max Brass as yet ANOTHER Echo Fighter, functioning with similar rules to Spring Man, and Dr.Coyle as another Echo Fighter meant to reflect Ribbon Girl as another air based ARMS fighter. It's a crazy idea, and I'm not expecting it, but it would be nice.

Anyway, fingers crossed for Spring Man with Ribbon Girl as an Echo, but I'll be happy with ARMS just getting some representation in Smash. I can count the number of game character I don't want on one hand, and I'm willing to take one I don't like with the ones that I do so far.

@duffmmann Assist Trophies have pretty much been a consolation prize for characters who didn't make it in-in Spring Man's case, DLC was already decided before Sakurai knew about him We've had Assist trophies get promoted before, ala Little Mac and Isabelle, but it usually take a whole game for that to happen. DLC only recently added the possibility to change that on Wii U, and even then, Ultimate's really where they've gone nuts with character choices. (not to say Bayonetta wasn't a wild pick, but she was more off the wall than everyone else on Smash for Wii U, either returning or just... being Corrin, lol)

As for other assist trophies joining in... I'd be down with it, but I think Spring Man would be an exception if h happened because he's actually got a counterpart who could replace his trophy- Springtron. I'd love it if Waluigi, Isaac, Dillon, Bomber Man, and even the Excite Bike Racer got a chance to shine, but I can't see Sakurai just taking the easy way out and just disabling characters-he's part of Nintendo, and the easy road isn't the most favored for the Big N.

We'll see. The list of characters I don't want in Smash is exceedingly short, and I'm genuinely having trouble thinking of new characters. Shadow as Sonic's Echo, Ray Man from Ubisoft, Crash from Activision (please not Tracer) a new Pokemon like Rillaboom... and those aren't guaranteed picks. At the very least, I'm kept guessing, even with my favorite Switch title's chosen fighter.

Twintelle: she has normal, human arms, so her playset would execute relatively fairly, ideally...

Min Min for sure

I'd like it to be Dr. Coyle, but I'm highly expecting either MinMin or Max Brass. Maaaybe Ninjara. I wouldn't be opposed to any of those, really.

Why, Twintelle of course!

Is anyone really doubting it’s gonna be the spring arm dude with the ribbon girl as the alternate costume?

I'd say either Spring Man, seeing as he's basically the poster child for the game, or Helix just for his originality of design.

Min-Min, Twintelle, or Misango would be my choices. Perhaps Helix too for extra crazy animations.

I'd love it to be Twintelle but I want Elma from Xenoblade X in more and as they share a similar design style in terms of skin tone and hair colour I think it'd be just one of the two, so my vote is on Min Min.

All of them. 8 skins for 8 different characters with the same moveset.
Lots of people have said this and all of us who have said this agree with each other.

There Is No Biff Option!

Go Min Min! Please make it happen.

Congrats to all of you who accurately predicted Min Min. You're far far more in tune with it than the rest of us.
