Nope. Not nearly iconic enough. Ryu is in because he's the Mario of fighting games. No one knows or cares about Bayonetta outside of a select few core gamers. That mean no Rayman either.

The way the select third parties for this game is pretty clear. The only non-iconic character I can see is Banjo, because of his Nintendo history. Other than that, this is likely it, unless you know of any other characters who transend the meduim the way Pac-Man, Mega Man, Sonic, and Ryu do.

Tetris for Smash? No? Hm.

I can write an 2 page essay to counter this but not bothered since I go over this many many times. 

Rayman sold more than Megaman, btw.  In terms of voting popularity for non N characaters according to a 14K poll (largest so far) , Banjo is 1st. (I don't see happening because: MS 1st party. ) , then soon after Shovel Knight. After it's Snake due to Veteran status and soon after Bayonetta, who almost triples over Rayman suprisingly.

Keep in mind times change and this is a few months old. Will not talk further as it's going off-topic.


That's not at all true, official numbers from Ubisoft and Capcom have the Megaman series at 30+ million and Rayman at over 25+ million.   Both of these numbers are from 2014.
