I've been thinking about the 3rd party fighters since my last journal entry. I've seen a lot of ideas, and I like many of them. My personal choices for 3rd party newcomers are:

1)Altair or Ezio(Assassin's Creed)- Either of these assassins would be awesome. Ezio would have his hidden gun, so he's got more damage potential.

2)Ryu Hayabusa(Ninja Gaiden)- He's a badass ninja. 'Nuff said.

3)Travis Touchdown(No More Heroes)- He's awesome and funny. Plus, Suda 51 has stated that he would love Travis to appear in Smash.

4)Mega Man/Mega Man X- I prefer X, but classic Mega Man would rock too.

5)Sora(Kingdom Hearts)- The keyblade wielder would be fun to play. Lots of abilities and spells to play with, possible form changes and Trinity Limit FS.

6)Laharl(Disgaea)- If you haven't played Disgaea or seen the Disgaea anime, you should. He's a great character. Great attacks, funny as hell and his voice is the american Rita Repulsa!

7)Cloud Strife(Kingdom Hearts & FFVII)- His only Nintendo appearance was KH: Chain of Memories, but his FFVII limit breaks would be the most likely moveset.

8)Aya(Onechanbara)- She's a hot, scantily-clad chick dual-wielding katanas. A long-shot, but I don't care.

9)Zero(Mega Man X)- My fave Mega Man character. The X version, not the lame chibi version from Mega Man Zero.

10)Banjo-Kazooie- The bear & bird never should have left Nintendo. They would be fun to play as, considering their wide array of moves.
