Goku im Smash, and he can fight Ryu that would be awesome



That would be awesome! I think Smash should really branch out. I like that they have added more 3rd party characters, it's one of the main reasons I started playing it. Seeing as I'm not a big Nintendo guy, when they added Cloud I just couldn't resist.

Let's stick with video game characters, thank you.

Xenoverse 2 is on Switch.

I believe one could argue that Pikachu was first created as Video Game Character, not an Anime Character.

Considering both have successful video game AND anime franchises dating back as far as they do, that is a moot point grasping for straws.

Honestly, I've played Goku in so many games I see him just as much a video game character as I do an anime character. Yes, the anime came first. But for years the only new content was video games and an occasional movie.

Well, most people don't see it that way then - because it really isn't. Goku is an anime character and if he features in 800 video games that doesn't change. It'd be like saying Iron Man is a movie character, which would be almost justifiable by how recognizable Robert Downey Jr. is as him and in how many films he's featured, but is still just wrong.

He's in more video games than anime series, so we're just going to have to disagree. You can think he's an anime character (he's actually a manga character, btw), but to me he's both.

I'd rather not. He just doesn't fit in Smash Bros.

What about Cloud, Snake and Bayonetta?



Yeah Goku, why not, and also Ninja Turtles, Barbie, Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh!, Tintin, Ray from Ghostbusters, Michael Jackson and Eric Cartman.
