New Naka Interview: Sonic's appearance in SSBM

Playing as NiGHTS in a Super Smash Bros. game would kick all kinds of ass. I would also like to see a kart racer where everyone has to drive except Sonic. Because, you know. He can like, run. Pretty fast too, I hear.

Hm... Django in SSB... I can see it.

I think it'd be interesting to play as characters like Ulala, Amigo, NiGHTS characters, maybe even ChuChu?

Billy Hatcher vs Yoshi would be fun.

Mega Man vs. Samus would kick ass too

EDIT: Bug!, anyone?

(quote)Heh, let's take this a bit further and have it be a Nintendo vs. SEGA vs. Shonen Jump All-Stars. It would be wild that you would have pirates, ninjas, plumbers, princesses, hedgehogs, monkey men, monsters, galactic heroes, swordspeople from various ages in time, and a whole bunch of other assorted characters in the same game beating the crap out of each other to become the number one champion. (quote)

Seiya would own everyone- unless Shiryu were inclueded too.

What about everyone's favourite dwarf, Gilius Thunderhead? Or the fags from Altered Beast, where you could switch from fag to beast like Zelda to Shiek? Or the Space Harrier guy? Or Rent-A-Hero, Dynamite Dux, or Axel Stone from Bare Knuckle/Streets Of Rage? It'd be killer. You wouldn't even need Nintendo, only Hal Laboratories to actually make the game, but I agree that a Sonic vs. Mario match must be possible at some point in the future.

There's always Fighters Megamix.

Sega has enough characters (popular or not) to fill a lineup somewhat close to Nintendo's current SSBM roster. Most of them have been suggested by now.

Maybe Ecco the Dolphin and Jack Wade.

EDIT: Oh man, I forgot about G or Rogan and maybe a zombie from HotD.

Why not just make a game with every character from every video game ever? We'll have a big tournament, and the loser has to take home all the lawsuits.

Too bad the Gamecube doesn't have online capabilities, then doc's idea would be even better

I won't be satisfied unless I can play as Segata Sanshiro.

Spazz · Post by **Spazz** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 3:46 pm

The Gamecube does have online capabilities; the only game I know of where you can go online is PSO.

Double-S- · Post by **Double-S-** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 4:07 pm

How would the GameCube make Doc's idea better, anyways?

Brazillian Cara · Post by **Brazillian Cara** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 5:30 pm

Four-players at the same time, graphics better than those of the PS2...

Double-S- · Post by **Double-S-** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 8:08 pm

That fails to make logic, because if that were what muke meant, then the Xbox would be even better. And plus, it actually DOES have an online plan.

muke · Post by **muke** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 2:01 pm

I was going to say that, but since this game would end up on a gamecube anyways (its made by Nintendo), I just wanted to keep at least part of this dream touching reality. However, I do agree that putting it on the Xbox would be the best thing ever!

The Doc · Post by **The Doc** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 7:00 pm

Oh, for God's sake, just put it on all three of them.

Yeah, the Battle Network verison that is. I think it was part of the deal for Boktai to appear in Battle Network 4...MegaMan.EXE had to appear in a later Boktai title.

Hahahaha. Get it?

Ha. Ha. Ha.

Anyway, They'll have to get the mechanics right if they want Sonic in something like Smash Bros.. I imagine they should import his Battle moves. Not all of them, just some of them.

Dante should always gueststar. No matter what game it is. Really.

Would you like him to be the guest star of the next Mario Party? 'Cause we know there WILL be a next Mario Party.
