Top 10 Third-Party Characters that Could Appear in the New ‘Super Smash Bros.’

Jul 10, 2012 by  

Super Smash Bros 4 Bomberman

Bomberman is one of the oldest franchises still around today, and the infamous White Bomber has become an especially iconic character in the video game history. Despite a recent lack of software (the series hasn’t had a new installment since 2010), Bomberman is way overdue for a comeback, and what better way to show the world that you’re still relevant than appearing in the next Super Smash Bros..

The character has tangled with Nintendo’s Wario in the past, and Hudson Soft (the company that created the franchise) was responsible for Mario Party 1-8. The company has since been dissolved into Konami, but many of the staff behind the series jumped ship to Nintendo – most recently finishing work on Mario Party 9. Konami has already demonstrated their eagerness to have their characters in Smash (Solid Snake), and the internal pressure from former Hudson Soft devs may push Bomberman into the spotlight once more.

  1. Isaac from Golden Sun is still my #1 even though you mentioned it. I mean come on! I wanna see a Ragnarok in SB, Chrono from Chrono Trigger, Knuckles, Lance and Bill from Contra, OR one of my favorites… a Red Wizard from Gauntlet, then you could totally add in a voice to say RED WIZARD NEEDS FOOD! when his % gets too high!

  2. I want Shadow the Hedgehog!! >:(

  3. I honestly would like NiGHTS to make an appearance, though Bomberman is awesome, too. Yeah, NiGHTS’s last game was kind of lacking, but this could be a good point to make a come-back.
    Maybe some more forms for Kirby, maybe Ball Kirby as an alternate costume or character (considering having no limbs)?

  4. Dude. Bionic Commando.

    Also, Shadow is the worst Sonic character next to Silver, I hope I never see him again.

  5. I see Mega Man here, so I’m happy. :p

  6. Y NO HANK WIMBLETON!

  7. Ryu has absaloutly no right of being in a game anymore

  8. Adam Jensen! He’s Square Enix, so, why not?
    “I’ve been made into a cartoon. I never asked for this.”

  9. Sweet Lord what about Pokemon!!!??

    • Uh, you forget that this is the 3rd party characters list. Pokemon is first party.

  10. Rayman & Bomberman, yesss. Those are the only ones on the list I approve of, really.

  11. if these guys are in it…….im buying
