Smash Bros. Universe?

I was debating whether or not to put this up as something newsworthy, but since there's not much else new for Smash Bros., I figure I'd talk about it. This was a document that was supposedly leaked looking for ideas. I doubt this is real, but if it is, I am slightly disappointed with the name unless it's because they're trying to add a significant number of 3rd party characters. I was personally hoping for a name like Clash or Unleashed.

Assist Trophy: Muddy Mole

Smash is all about giving lesser-known characters a little light to the game world. Muddy Mole is a perfect candidate for an assist trophy. Maybe one day, he will see a remake or even a character appearance. Mole Mania was actually quite a fun game, and Muddy actually has enough attacks where he could even have a moveset, so it's not that ridiculous...

Assist Trophy: NiGHTS

I never played Nights, but it has a decent fanbase. I don't think it's important enough to get a third party character slot, but deserves some recognition.

Assist Trophy: Midna

Truly a unique and cool character, Midna was confirmed by Miyamoto that she will most likely not return to another Zelda game. This is the only thing that makes her not a worthy enough character for the series.

Assist Trophy: Birdo

Birdo is certainly an important character in the Mario series. She was the primary boss in Super Mario Bros. 2, along with appearing in dozens of Super Mario Party, Mario Sports, and Mario Kart games. I would say that she's more deserving than Waluigi for becoming a character, but she's another character that still isn't quite there. Maybe if they remake Super Mario Bros. 2 or if she gets a starring role in an upcoming Mario game, then she would be far more deserving of a slot.

For her move as an assist trophy, I think she could shoot eggs like she did in Super Mario Bros. 2.

Assist Trophy: Waluigi

 I just don't think Waluigi should be a character until he has his own game, which isn't a bad idea. Waluigi's clearly a pretty popular character, and Nintendo is low on fresh franchises. Once he starts in a game or at least gets some possible moves, I'm all for Waluigi to be a character. Until that day, an assist trophy he should remain.

Stage: Hyrule Castle

I think Hyrule Castle should reappear as it did in the N64 version. In other words, it should not be updated graphically. Smash Bros. is known for having different styles of graphics in the game, why not add a vintage Nintendo 64 style?

Stage: Dream Forest

The first stage of the Rayman series is a must

Stage: Emerald Hill

Probably the second most popular Sonic the Hedgehog stage in the series, Emerald Hill would be a nice alternative to the regular Green Hill Zone. That said, the Green Hill Zone should remain and always remain a stage. The Emerald Hill Zone is the first stage in the first Sonic the Hedgehog sequel. It's also the first stage where Tails appears...

Stage: The Impact Site

I personally thought that the "Distant Planet" was a really stupid concept for a Pikmin stage. Why couldn't they have named it after one of the stages? I think that the Impact Site could be a very similar stage to the distant planet, with a few exceptions. One thing that could change would be that there would be something instead of a bulborb at the right. Maybe a wall that could be broken with enough damage or another piece of scenery. The ship in the background would still remain there.

Stage: 25m

Perhaps the most famous first stage in video game history, 25m is something anyone can tell you what game it's from. We already have the 75m, so why not add the more famous stage to Smash as well?

Trophy: Gerik

 Another awesome character of the Fire Emblem series, Gerik deserves a trophy appearance, and maybe a sticker slot too...maybe.

Trophy and Sticker: Bubble Monkey

A funny character and actually useful in your quest in Earthbound, the bubble monkey should definitely represent the series with an appearance as a trophy (hopefully blowing a bubble) and as a sticker.

Sticker: Merric

Fire Emblem should get a bigger representation of their characters, and I think Merric should be one. His appearance as a sticker would be a nice extra nod to the fanbase.

Trophy and Stickers: Orbulon

An important character in the WarioWare franchise, Orbulon deserves a trophy and at maybe even 2 stickers.

Trophy: Joshua

Giving Joshua a spot as a trophy would be okay in my books. He's not really that important to the franchise, but he's really cool. Maybe one day he could become an assist trophy.

Trophy and Sticker: Flying Man

I may believe that the flying men should never be a fighter, I think a little bit of action is necessary. Perhaps adding them as a trophy and sticker would be a fun little addition.

Item: Ice Flower


We all know there's the fire flower, but why not add the new ice flower? It could freeze opponents instead of burning them. A simple variation like this could spice up the typical fire flower.
