Reminder: The Smash Ballot ends on October 3rd

https://cp.nintendo.co.jp/us/

Totally forgot all about this until someone brought it up on my timeline.

I also thought it ended on the 1st, no, it's on the 3rd, which is Smash 3DS' 1 year anniversary in NA and EU.

I wonder if they'll actually give a list of the highest votes, including ones that can't legally make it in (stuff like Goku and such if that many hopelessly voted for him).

So yeah, if you haven't already, the deadline is almost here, and I'm not sure if they do count more than one vote from the same person or anything.

I personally voted three times in the following order:

King K. Rool (if only Nintendo characters)
Bomberman (if 3rd-party characters are eligible)
Banjo-Kazooie (if Phil was honest about them being possible)

How about you guys?

Edit: Actually the Japanese site has notes, anyone want to take a crack at translating please?

Even if Phil was being honest, Nintendo isn't going to put Banjo in Smash. A vote wasted that could've went for Wonder Red. For shame.

Isaac, but moreso to get a shot at a stage or a song or something.

I swear, if it's Waluigi I'm going to kidnap all of you, including Dan Ryckert, and ship you off to an abandoned island.

A vote for Anna or a vote for Kumatora is... well, okay, not the most grounded choice, but if you did, you are my friend.

I hope you kids did the right thing and voted some classic Nintendo characters. None of these weirdos i keep seeing mentioned that are just deluding the roster even further.

1. Balloon Kid
2. Murasame
3. Excitebike Dude

Reminder to vote for ST Falcon from Battle Clash. You'll have wasted your vote, but at least you'll have wasted it on something awesome!


Saki Amamiya and Takamaru are good picks to. Also Wonder Red or one of the remaining Operation Rainfall dudes.
 
I'm assuming this is going to be swamped by dudes voting for their waifus.

Anybody that votes for one of the 3 kings. Rool, Wart or Hippo gets a thumbs up from me.

Oh, and Mach Rider is also pretty awesome. Originally a toy from 1972 (older than the Duck Hunt toy), secretly a girl with go-go boots (before Samus was a secret girl), is someone Sakurai personally wants, and is totally Kenshiro Mad Max.

I voted for Chibi-Robo. At this point he's the only character left that I really badly want to see become playable (Inklings too I suppose, but they're inevitable). After him, everyone else would be gravy.

I voted Dixie, and assume Wolf will be another favourite with a good chance of returning. Not sure who number 3 will be, assuming only 3 more get announced.
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.

Not going to lie, I would love a modern retake on Mach Rider.
Something like an action game where the motorcycle is just as important to the battles as your gun
and Mach Rider Kick

I know it won't happen as I think they intend on keeping the roster to characters from other games (as a primary media), but wouldn't this game have the highest chance of Goku ever being in a Smash game? Wasn't it co-developed by Bandai Namco, who have the license to make the DBZ games?
