Simon Belmont.


It occured to me while I was playing the first Castlevania on Virtual Console. Characters from not one but two Nintendo games that very few people cared about get "resurrected," but Castlevania gets the shaft? And there were plenty of things Nintendo could have done with him. "A" could have been various whip moves, B could have been the Holy Water (ala Snake's Grenade), up B could have been the axe (ala Yoshi's Egg), and the final Smash could have been the stopwatch, which doesn't sound useful at first, but hey, while enemies are frozen in place you could regular smash or just get a few seconds of free shots.


There are a lot of what if's in life Donny. What if I hit you really hard in the face, knocked yo shit to the back of yo skull? What if I....had you girl gargle my nuts? The fact remains, you are a fuckin mutant.

I think a continued partnership with konami might be good. Playing as vic viper would be very novel.

He was in Dream Mix TV World Fighters. So he could've been there, sure. But then, by that logic, so too could Optimus Prime have been.

Brawl is, was, and always will be primarily about Nintendo characters. Simon is a Konami character, and since Solid Snake was already included, the chances of us getting Simon as well are highly dubious. Besides, Simon would have just been a slower version of Zero Suit Samus with one or two extra projectiles.

You can't claim omission on third party characters. Any third party character that gets included is a bonus and we should be grateful for them. Only Nintendo-owned properties that don't make the cut are true omissions.

Well I guess I forgot that Konami made the Castlevania games. So yea that makes sense.
