GameZone writes, "There are a number of first-party Nintendo characters that would make excellent additions to the Smash Bros. hall of fame, but a lot of the appeal in Brawl came from third-party fighters like Snake and Sonic the Hedgehog making their debuts. What third-party characters should Nintendo and Namco Bandai feature in the upcoming Wii U installment of Smash Bros?"
NetherRealm confirms its Mortal Kombat franchise has sold over 80 million copies in the last 30 years, and here's how it competes against other fighters.
Don't care what anyone says, Smash isn't a traditional fighting game. May as well call Powerstone and Playstation All Stars fighting games. They're more of an arena fighter /party game.
Including Smash Bros in a list of fighting games, is like including GTA in Racing games.
The designer of the original Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo 64 shows us the prototype that started it all.

The Sony-owned sports organization announced the loss of the platformer in a statement on Twitter today, and seemed to blame the decision on Nintendo, which has historically tried to control how their games appear in the wild."
In away this hurts Nintendo Smash Bros has some dedicated fans. What better way to help build hype and sell more of the game then showcasing it at EVO.
Rayman :)
Zero third party characters should be in SSB4.
But if we must then keep them to characters like Sonic, Mega Man, or Rayman. Snake did not fit all.
I would love Travis Touchdown in there. I've heard people want Simon Belmont.
How about no third party characters? Nintendo has enough characters to use. Skyward Sword gave Demise and Ghirahim. Two new characters right there. Add Skull boy as well.
hell no! Keep it Nintendo! The more 3rd party, the less chance I have of getting to play as Sammy (advance wars), Tom Nook, Daisy, Ashley Robins (Trace Memory), Dillon (Rolling Western), and Soren (Fire Emblem).
