Chibi-Robo honestly seems like it has a decent shot.

It's had just as many games as the Star Fox series. :v:

All the DLC characters so far save Ryu have been past entrants, there's little reason to believe anyone from a past game (RIP Ice Climbers and Pokémon Trainer) won't be offered up at some point.

I know wanting K. Rool is a thing here and all, but why is anyone under the impression Nintendo gives a poo poo? The Kremlings have only appeared in Rare developed games and despite reviving the DKC series they don't even make a cameo appearance. Why does everyone seem to think he's a shoe-in for Smash?

The Kremlings appeared in the Wii version of Mario Baseball, so they aren't completely forgotten.

I think Wolf is going to be a given, they wouldn't readd Roy and Lucas and not him, he's a fan-favorite, he'd be equal work to the others, and there's a new Star Fox game this year they can tie him into.

I think that, given that when the Mewtwo DLC came out there were two empty character slots added along with the three we got Sunday, they had two more planned characters they're gonna do before the DLC ballots, or two more set-in-stone "we're going to do this for sure" characters they just haven't started work on. Wolf is a lock I think, the Ice Climbers are a 50/50. Also if there's two that means one announcement for EVO and one announcement for CEO.

I'm gonna guess we'll get Wolf and someone else in August, something in October to coincide with the poll ending, and then the ballot characters sometime next year.

If you want my guesses as for characters they'd do regardless of poll results: Isaac, a Rhythm Heaven guy, some sort of bizarre Style Savvy character, some NES Sports guy. These aren't joke suggestions I am dead serious.

King K. Rool is likely the top of the poll results but I don't think they will include a character solely based on the highest number of votes. I do think the chances of him being added are very high, but there's room for doubt.

Why would you not want Isaac, the charismatic hero of the blockbuster Golden Sun series. They could give him a voice just like Ness and he could yell "Psynergy Push!" and "Psynergy Grab!" and he could roll the Villager's tree on the ground to solve puzzles.

Isaac will be in the game and his gimmick will be typing in a 100 character password around the halfway point of every match.

They might add K Rool after the ballots are counted, but Sakurai's going to make a weird scrunched up confused face the entire time he works on the character, shaking his head occasionally.

After they count all the ballots, the next Direct will open with Sakurai burning an effigy of K. Rool made of the votes and explaining in a very calm and collected manner that everyone had voted incorrectly and that this is why democracy is a great blight on the world.
