Sword Fighters in Smash 4:
Link, Toon Link, *Marth, *Ike, *Robin, Metaknight, Shulk, *Lucina, Roy, Cloud, Mii Swordfighter, Corrin.
Total: 13

Fist/Unarmed fighters in Smash 4:
Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Yoshi, Wario, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Little Mac, Sheik, Ganondorf, Kirby, Fox, Falco, Charizard, Lucario, Jigglypuff, Greninja, Rob, Captain Falcon, Wii Fit Trainer, Dr. Mario, Pac Man, Sonic, Ryu, and Mii Brawler.
Total: 26.
Other Fighters:
Rosalina, Bowser Jr, Mr. Game and Watch, Zelda (Magic, though sometimes uses her hands), Samus, Zero Suit (sometimes uses hands, energy based fighter), Pit, Palutena, Duck Hunt, King Dedede, Pikachu, Ness, Villager, Olimar, Dark Pit, Megaman (Projectile Base/Utility), Mewtwo, Lucas, Mii Gunner, and Bayonetta.
Total: 20.

If we had anything to complain about, is that the classification for each of these is poorly executed. Olimar uses his fist, yet I'm excluding him from the Unarmed ballot because he has Pikmin to aid him in combat. Zero Suit and Zelda can also be unarmed fighters, except Zero Suit augments her attacks with a gun. Also, Robin can be called an Energy based fighter ("Other") fighter because all of his attacks are magic based. The only true Sword Fighters happen to be Marth, Ike, Roy, Lucina, Metaknight, Mii Swordfighter, and Cloud. Link and Toon Link use too many projectiles to be called true sword fighters, as they're more turtle/projectile character. In fact, Link is even less of a Sword Fighter than Toon Link, because he uses kicks in air. If we adjust this list a bit, that brings the total sword fighters down to 11, as Link is more of a mixed fighter who augments their fighting with their sword, and Robin is an energy based fighter.

But even without this small adjustment, sword fighters are the smallest class in the game. The Mii fighters break down the three types of fighter in Smash 4, Sword, Fist, and Energy. If you're complaining that there's more Sword Fighters in the game, then you should look over fist fighters and other fighters first. And though I hate Fire Emblem characters, there's going to be a total of 6.
But there's ******* 9 Mario Characters, if we say Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong don't count. Eight if Wario doesn't count, either. That's still more than Fire Emblem.

They changed her 'stripping' to her getting an outfit similar to Shulk / Zero Short Suit when she attacks. Very little skin is shown, excluding her legs, I guess.

I'm okay with Bayonetta. The only issue I have with Corrin is that it's another sword fighter, hopefully one without a counter, and that the character isn't even out yet in the west. Fire Emblem doesn't need more fluff, it's already popular.

Shantae would have been an interesting addition. Probably have a lot of different outfits, though, just from the recent game alone. But then again, they'd have to figure out if she has her Genie powers or not...

I dunno about Issac, but I have only played the DS one, which wasn't very good in my opinion and that one doesn't even really feature him.

But the big issue I had with the update was the costumes. Having the other "potential" characters turned into awful Mii fighter costumes that we can't even use online, outside of friend fights at least, is dumb. Not to mention Geno, who has been asked to reappear / get in Smash since Melee was turned into an awful looking outfit just to say 'That's all your getting.'

Sakurai is a jerk. <(' '<);

>Another swordfighter

Dude.. He's a ******* dragon.. He doesn't use the sword that much.
User avatar #1 - dittoexodia (01/02/2016) [-]
I do. Sure, he's another FE character, but he's unique enough, and his moves look really cool to play with. I am peeved only one character from the fan poll got in, though.
User avatar #12 - zeldapronmaster (01/03/2016) [-]
Will you people ******* stop. The newest fire emblem lord has always been in smash, just happens now we had 2 fire emblems in the span of smash4.

Your choices got outvoted by bayonetta; deal with it, and move on

Except shovel knight won by a landslide.....and yacht club was totally onboard
User avatar #17 to #13 - Visual (01/03/2016) [-]
Where did you see the results for that? I didn't hear about Nintendo releasing the ballot results.
#22 to #17 - neefew (01/03/2016) [-]
Nintendo said that Bayonetta won overall and was consistently in the top 3 for every region
User avatar #14 to #13 - ayumu (01/03/2016) [-]
Yeah but if you honestly expected Nintendo to add an indie character, then you're retarded.

Purple hair is Shantae from, well, Shantae

No idea who blondie is. That ******** probably more obscure than ******* Xenosaga.

He kinda looks like the main character from Golden Sun Dark Dawn.. I'm probably wrong, though, but i would totally pick up the game again if I could play as any Golden Sun characters
User avatar #20 to #19 - gibusernamepls (01/03/2016) [-]
You're right, it's Isaac from GS
User avatar #25 to #20 - kibuza (01/03/2016) [-]
That's who I voted for actually, although Garet would have been cool too. Would have been nice to have some weapon differences and maybe get an Axe user in there, and they could play similar to Robin since they use Djinni and magic and summons.

I also voted for Monster Hunter 'Hunter' because I thought it could be implemented like Shulk maybe where neutral B could switch between weapon types. Greatsword - SnS - Hammer or something like that. I thought that would be cool.
User avatar #32 to #25 - xfishy (01/03/2016) [-]
I need more golden sun in my life. Their final smashes would've been boss as **** too.
User avatar #31 to #20 - xfishy (01/03/2016) [-]
Yay, confirmation. Only time a GS character has been in a smash was Brawl as an assist. I demand more Golden Sun representation.

Dammit. Now I'm gonna imagine Corrin with Patrick Warburton's voice when I'm playing FE Fates at night and can't have the volume up.
#23 - patpatpatrick ONLINE (01/03/2016) [-]
Corrin was a slap in the face.
User avatar #9 - namdelliks (01/03/2016) [-]
I love Corrin

My problem isn't that he is another anime swordsman (although I do think we have enough of those), my problem is that he's another Fire Emblem character.

Fire Emblem isn't nearly a major enough franchise to tie Pokemon and compete with Mario. Especially when some of Nintendo's A-List franchises have many unique characters to add, yet remain under-represented. And we don't need ANOTHER character that only exists as advertising space. Sorry to all the Shulk fans, but if there weren't a sequel to his game coming out that needed advertising, his chances of getting in would've been much lower.

This was the last round of new Smash Bros, for anyone wondering.

The only character I really really want for Smash is Shovel Knight, but I doubt it will happen.
