that wasnt going to be very likely. His moveset wouldnt be very special or significant. Hes just a boxer. much better as an assist trophy though.
I disagree.
that is like saying Pitt would have been bad in Smash because his move set was limited to a bow and jumping/flying.
they could have easily given Little Mac more moves that he didnt use in the games, like they could have borrow famous moves from the Ippo anime like how Steve Fox is Tekken does.
It would have been amazing, but granted it wouldent have worked for this more air combat focused smash, but still he would have been so great as playable.
just a quick idea of how he could have been:
up+B = Gazelle Punch
forward/back+B = Dempsey Roll
down+B = Cross Counter (so it wont be cheap)
B = similar to Marth's special move, changed up from Right Straight to Hook to Uppercut.
Final Smash = Clench Teeth/Spirit Up (for short period heavily powered up)
