There’s two DLC slots left (assuming there’s only going to be one season pass), and there’s a lot of ways it can shake out, so I’m gonna cast as wide a net as I can so I have a decent chance of being right

The one thing that we can say for absolute certain is that the two characters will either be from a Nintendo property (1st or 2nd party) or from a 3rd party property that has been on a Nintendo system before

Since this post ended up getting kind of messy, I’m going to be highlighting the ones that I think are the most likely from each developer or category

If it’s from a Nintendo property, then it’d either be:

Someone from a relatively long-standing Nintendo franchise that doesn’t have a fighter or Assist Trophy yet; the best I can think of would be the Wars franchise (probably Andy), the Excite franchise (probably Excitebiker), Chibi-Robo, Custom Robo (one of the models of Ray), or Rhythm Heaven (if Spirits are out, then probably Tibby or Marshall, but if Spirits are in, Karate Joe or the Chorus Kids)

A character from a recent game or series such as BoxBoy (Qbby) or Ever Oasis (Tethu) which have been gaining some attention lately, or upcoming Nintendo game, like Astral Chain (Akira Howard), Daemon x Machina (either the pilot or the mech), or some other game that we don’t know about yet

A character from an older Nintendo game that may have only had one or two games, like Balloon Fight, Mach Rider, StarTropics (Mike Jones), or any others that don’t have a fighter or Assist Trophy

For 3rd parties, it could be from a developer already represented in Smash:

Of the 3rd parties already in, Bandai-Namco is the only one that only has one series as opposed to two (not counting Bayonetta, technically 2nd party, or Banjo, a former 2nd party), which is especially odd given their involvement in the creation of the game itself; their new series could be Dark Souls (most likely the Chosen Undead), Klonoa, Katamari (the Prince of All Cosmos), Dig Dug (Taizo Hori), Tower of Druaga (Gil), Tekken (Heihachi), Soulcalibur (Nightmare), or the Tales franchise (probably Lloyd). Alternatively, Bandai specifically could get in on the action with either Tamagotchi (Mametchi) or its more action-oriented counterpart Digimon (probably Agumon), which both started out as Game-and-Watch style digital toys and evolved into video game franchises in their own right, though Digimon had a much greater focus on that

Sega, who technically only has one (Sonic), since Persona was an acquired property rather than an original property, could get Alex Kidd, NiGHTs, Super Monkey Ball (AiAi), or Virtua Fighter (Akira Yuki, who already has a Mii costume), though their most likely addition would probably be Puyo Puyo (most likely Arle), as despite being another acquired property (from Compile), it is most heavily associated with Sega and is currently one of their most popular franchises. They could also get other Sonic characters, like Tails or Eggman, but I’m mostly leaning towards new franchises. Also, though I don’t believe it has any real shot, Sega does make the Vocaloid rhythm games, Project Diva, so there’s a non-zero chance that we could get Miku.

Capcom, who already have Megaman and Street Fighter, could potentially get Monster Hunter (as the Rathalos is already a boss), Ace Attorney (Phoenix Wright), Devil May Cry (Dante), or possibly even Resident Evil (Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, or most likely Leon Kennedy, since he has the closest ties with Nintendo)

Konami, who already have Metal Gear and Castlevania, could potentially get Frogger (an icon of arcade gaming), Silent Hill (unlikely, but Pyramid Head is a horror icon, so it wouldn’t be too far-fetched), Mystical Ninja (Goemon), or Contra (Bill Rizer/Lance Bean). If Bomberman weren’t already an Assist Trophy, I’d say he was a strong contender as a Hudson rep, though Bonk is still in the running there

If you consider Banjo-Kazooie a Microsoft property, then it’s possible that Microsoft allowed Nintendo to use it on the condition that they get another character in as well, though this seems unlikely. If that’s the case, though, they’d most likely go with Minecraft (Steve/Alex), since as far as I know that’s the only property of their’s that’s ever been on a Nintendo platform outside of other Rare properties, though maybe that hypothetical deal would open the gates for series that have never been on a Nintendo console, like Halo (Master Chief)

Square Enix most likely won’t get another one, but they do own Taito, formerly a major studio in their own right, and thus could reasonably get Bubble Bobble (Bub/Bob) or even Space Invaders, though I’m not sure how viable that would be. For Square Enix themselves, the Mana series (likely Randi) or even Kingdom Hearts (Sora) would be good choices, but I don’t see it happening

If Nintendo wants to keep bringing in other companies, though, there are still four more of the top 10 biggest gaming companies in Japan that aren’t in yet:

Tecmo-Koei has pretty close ties with Nintendo, co-owning the Fatal Frame franchise, which already has an Assist Trophy; chances are good they’d go with Ninja Gaiden (Ryu Hayabusa), since that’s one of the iconic classic Nintendo games, though they could also potentially go with Dead or Alive (Kasumi) or Dynasty Warriors (though for the life of me I don’t know who they could go with. Lu Bu?)

Level-5, who frequently gets help from Nintendo with international publishing, would most likely go with Professor Layton or Yokai Watch (likely Jibanyan), though Inazuma Eleven (Mamoru Endou) or Ni no Kuni (Oliver, Evan, or Roland) would also work in a pinch. Interestingly, Level-5 also owns Comcept, so Mighty no. 9 (Beck) is a possibility, but an exceedingly slim one

Sony, Nintendo’s most major rival, doesn’t have much to offer since most of their first party games aren’t on Nintendo systems, and their most significant viable IP, Crash Bandicoot, is currently owned by Activision, so even if Crash got in, it’s hard to say that it would be as a Sony rep. Still, Crash is a gaming icon and former mascot of Sony, which would heavily symbolize the rivalry between Sony and Nintendo even if ownership has changed hands. If being on a Nintendo system isn’t an issue, Little Big Planet (Sackboy), Sly Cooper, or God of War (Kratos) would all be excellent choices. Interestingly, everything I’ve said so far has been developed by Sony’s American or European subsidiaries. For Japanese studios, their most likely reps would probably be Ape Escape (Spike) or Gravity Rush (Kat). Sony also currently owns Q*Bert (formerly owned by Gottlieb), who would be a perfect representative of arcade gaming, though I don’t imagine Sony would pick Q*Bert over any of their original IPs if given the choice.

Marvelous, who happens to be making Daemon x Machina with Nintendo, frequently releases their games on Nintendo platforms; by far their biggest series is Story of Seasons (likely Pete with Sara as an alternate costume, though other player characters such as Mark, Pony, Toy, Claire, Henry and Holly would also work), or its spinoff, Rune Factory (likely Raguna), but Muramasa (Momohime/Kisuke) would be a fairly strong contender if only because of popularity. They also own Senran Kagura (Asuka), which got its start on Nintendo consoles and still remains there to this day. Its risque nature makes me hesitant to call it viable or likely, though that certainly didn’t stop Bayonetta, but either way Story of Seasons feels a lot more likely. There’s also Little King’s Story (Corobo), but that’s a fairly niche title, I think

More in line with Microsoft, there are also a number of particularly big Western companies with a lot of support for getting into Smash

The biggest is probably Ubisoft, who is definitely the Western company on the best terms with Nintendo; they would most likely use Rayman, especially since he’s had a trophy and a Spirit, though a Rabbid is also possible. Assassin’s Creed (probably Ezio or Altair), Prince of Persia, or even Starlink (Mason Rana) may all work, but Rayman is definitely the best bet

A representative from Bethesda, another major Western company which seems to be on at least friendly terms with Nintendo; since Bethesda owns Id, I’m inclined to say Doom (Doomslayer), though I would think that Bethesda would want to use one of their original properties, so potentially Elder Scrolls (Dovahkin). Fallout (likely Vaultboy) may work too, but that’s also an acquired property

Though mostly inactive now, Atari was once one of the pillars of the video game industry. Unfortunately, they don’t really have many iconic characters that are particularly viable, but as I’ve said in the past, the Centipede would make a really interesting fighter

Activision Blizzard doesn’t have much that’s been playable on Nintendo, though there are games from both Activision and Blizzard individually: Activision could potentially contribute Call of Duty (Private Martin?), but they did acquire Spyro and Crash from Sony, so that would probably be a better fit for Smash, though it’s hard to say if they’d use someone else’s mascot; on Blizzard’s side, Overwatch (Tracer) was recently announced to be coming to Switch, and Diablo has gotten a lot of attention from Nintendo, what with the Diablo variant Switch and the Loot Goblin amiibo, though I’m not sure who would be a viable representative

Warner Bros. Interactive doesn’t really have a ton to offer since it mostly does licensed games, but it does publish NetherRealm Studios’ Mortal Kombat (Scorpion or Sub-Zero), one of the most iconic fighting games of all time, and 5th Cell’s Scribblenauts (Maxwell). The latter certainly isn’t as iconic as Mortal Kombat in terms of video game history, but it’s at least a lot easier to associate with WB

The Tetris Company doesn’t explicitly have any characters of their own as far as I know, though Tetrominos are a surprisingly popular choice. I however propose that they could use Tee from Puyo Puyo Tetris, as he is the closest thing to a Tetris character that there is. Unfortunately he’s probably considered a Sega character since he was designed by Sonic Team, but who knows, maybe the Tetris Company co-owns him

EA has...uh...the Sims, which used to belong to Nintendo? Dr. Wright from SimCity is already an Assist Trophy, but Nintendo never lost the rights to the character, so that doesn’t really count. They don’t really have much else that’s useful. Plants vs Zombies? Need for Speed? Dragon Age...? Regardless, EA has said that they are distancing themselves from the Switch (though they immediately backtracked on that statement), which seems evident since they don’t appear to be putting the new PvZ on Switch, so it feels unlikely that they’d get any representation in Smash at all

CD Projekt Red is getting Witcher III on Switch, and people really love Geralt, so maybe? Doesn’t seem super likely, but not impossible

Take-Two Interactive has GTA and LA Noire, but I’m not sure if those are viable

Epic Games has Fortnite which...I guess could just have eight different outfits? I don’t know anything about Fortnite

Some smaller Japanese studios (smaller than the top 10, not necessarily indie) may also be decent choices, since they have games with enough history to warrant being in Smash:

SNK has King of Fighters/Fatal Fury (Terry Bogard or Mai Shiranui) and Metal Slug (Marco/Tarma). SNK has officially gotten Fatal Fury’s Terry in Smash, seemingly to represent the Neo Geo system, which honestly I should have considered would make SNK a stronger contender

Cooking Mama Limited has...Cooking Mama

Nippon Ichi Software has Disgaea (Laharl)

ArcSystem Works has BlazBlue (Ragna), Guilty Gear (Sol Badguy), and iconic beat-em-up series Double Dragon (Billy/Jimmy Lee) since acquiring Technos Japan from Data East

Grasshopper Manufacture has No More Heroes (Travis Touchdown), which has had pretty much its entire history on Nintendo systems

Natsume is probably the least likely of this entire post, but they have what is currently called Harvest Moon (Farmer?) and their more well known original title, Medabots (Metabee or Rokusho) which is surprisingly still going

And of course, there’s the indies, both Japanese and Western:

Nicalis currently has the rights to indie forerunner Cave Story (Quote), and are the current publishers of classic SNES series Umihara Kawase, but the real star for them is definitely Cave Story

WayForward’s Shantae is already a Spirit in Smash, so of indies, I think she has the best bet, but only if Spirits don’t preclude fighter status

Not technically indie, but Inti Creates broke off from Capcom several years ago and released Azure Striker Gunvolt (Gunvolt) before teaming up with various indie developers to help them with their projects, so I’m gonna go ahead and count them. They also have Gal*Gun (Ekoro), Dragon: Marked for Death (likely Empress) and now have the rights to Blaster Master (Jason) from Sunsoft. If they only have the license and the rights still belong to Sunsoft though, then chalk Sunsoft and Blaster Master up in the smaller studios category above

Toby Fox’s Undertale (Frisk) has a lot of demand, so it only seems fair to put it on this list

For the sake of acknowledgment, Yacht Club’s Shovel Knight is the only indie to have an Assist Trophy, so while I doubt Shovel Knight is going to be in the DLC, he could come up in a future Smash

Devolver Digital is getting pretty big lately and has a ton to offer, and with their flagship series Hotline Miami (Jacket) confirmed to be coming to Switch, their chances have certainly improved. The Messenger and Enter the Gungeon would both work too, but Hotline Miami is definitely the go-to for Devolver

Gears for Breakfast’s A Hat in Time (Hat Kid) is the latest indie darling making the rounds, and with its imminent release on Switch, its chances have only gone up

Similarly, Team Cherry’s Hollow Knight is gaining a lot of traction, to the point that its sequel had its own segment at E3 this year

Brace Yourself Games’ Crypt of the Necrodancer (Cadence) has a crossover with Legend of Zelda, an honor that I don’t believe I’ve ever seen an indie game get from Nintendo before

Choice Provisions’ Bit.Trip (CommanderVideo) had a trophy in Smash 4, making it the first indie to be acknowledged in Smash, although CommanderVideo did not receive a Spirit in Ultimate. They’re also the current publishers of Bubsy, which...I would hope doesn’t get in

Edmund McMillen has at least two successful indies, Super Meat Boy and Binding of Isaac, and while I don’t think either of them will make it, I felt that they were at least worth mentioning

StudioMDHR’s Cuphead is on Switch and ostensibly getting a physical release soon, and from what I’ve seen is one of the most hotly requested indies for Smash

Similarly to Cave Story, Kikiyama’s Yume Nikki (Madotsuki) was wildly influential for the indie scene and would be very interesting, though highly unlikely, for Smash

Speaking of influential indies, Team Shanghai Alice’s Touhou Project (Reimu Hakurei) is one that I see a fair bit of clamor for, especially now that it’s getting console games

Supergiant Games’ Bastion (the Kid) is yet another influential indie game, and also interestingly enough was published by Warner Bros. Interactive, so if Mortal Kombat doesn’t work out, this is another good option

And of course, how could I forget Matt Makes Games’ Celeste (Madeline), a game with tremendous pull by fans to get into Smash

If I think of any I missed that I think have a decent chance, I’ll add them in later

Ninjago Season 9: Throne Room

Sometimes following your heart means losing your mind.

The doors swung open with a bang, and suddenly she was there.

The metal bars rattled as if the impact of the large doors colliding with the scorched walls had caused the whole room to quake. The prisoner jolted back into consciousness as if he had always been awake, not even acknowledging the dried blood on his suit and face. There was no friendly glitter in his dark eyes- the eyes that once held so much light- as he fixed them on the princess of Ninjago as she moved down the carpet towards the large throne that was once her father’s...before she had him killed of course.

Her white-blonde hair was like a halo around her head as it fluttered around her face and shoulders. The short carefully cut bangs danced above her menacing eyes. Unlike her guest, those dark pools glittered dangerously as she kept her gaze locked on the throne. The makeup on her forehead down to her cheeks can be only described as red warpaint even though it looked more like dried blood that instead of turning brown kept the horrible crimson shade. And her mouth that once was carefully painted rose red was left colorless, maybe even chapped, was curling upwards just a little to remind the two guards and her caged foe that she was the one in power and was very happy that she was.

The ninja watched as she slowly took her seat, her thin legs crossing elegantly even though they bore no robes. Instead, her dark warrior suit contrasted the bright red and gold altar like a spill of ink on the brightly colored royal silks the princess once was forced to wear. Now she sat proudly on the seat, her smile twisting into one of a true villain before speaking two words into the silent space.

“Leave us.”

The two guards, both Sons of Garmadon worshippers, hesitated before leaving their post. They briefly walked down the long stained carpet before shutting the doors. The prisoner’s heart pounded in beat with the bang.

The ninja master’s eyes tore themselves back to the throne. Like a magnet, his eyes seemed to lock right into hers, for she was already baring her eyes right at him.

“Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon.”

Lloyd dared not to say a word back but his chest tightened. As much as he had tried to burn the memories from his head, his heart ached for the time she had said his name with love. Now she spoke his name carefully and slowly, making sure every consonant was pronounced and vowel was emphasized just to hurt the ninja master more. How badly he wanted to shout back, how badly he wanted to correct her: saying that he was no longer a Garmadon when the monster that wore his father’s face reigned as emperor. He bit down on his tongue, and tried to look away.

“I have no idea where they died,” the Quiet One continued. “The building was so large, it could’ve been anywhere.” Her eyes sent daggers into Lloyd’s chest. “They never did find the bodies.”

Lloyd wished the Quiet One would live more up to her name.

“I’m referring to my parents of course,” she continued. “My real ones. The old emperor and empress are nothing to me.” She began to twirl her hair in her long fingers. “I did like the palace, really I did. So many rooms, so many secret passageways, enough space and time to plot my revenge.”

With a quick sweep of her leg, Harumi stood from her throne. Lloyd kept her gaze on her not because he wanted to but because his body didn't have the strength it needed to look away. She slid a smile on her face as she started to stalk down the steps of the altar like a panther approaching its prey.

“That’s what makes me different, you see, it’s what makes me your greatest villain. I had the time. I had the resources. I had the trickery. You didn’t know I existed until I got away.” Her words burned into Lloyd’s skin. He didn’t want to admit that she was right.

“The Serpentine, sure they had reasons for revenge, and Morro had them too yet even they became soft. The Nindroids were built to destroy you all but yet failed in the end. The Overlord had thousands of years to prepare and yet fell because he prepared without knowing Lloyd.” As she spoke his name with such venom she grasped the bars of the cage, her face only a few inches from his. “They didn’t know you. I knew you, I know you. I could predict your every move, every step you would take. It was as easy as playing a board game against myself. I broke you, I shattered your heart and crushed your soul- I did that! Admit it Lloyd- I am your arch nemesis - I am your worst nightmare- I am your greatest villain!”

Lloyd stayed silent, his dark lightless eyes staring back as if he had woken from a trance.

“ADMIT IT!!” Harumi screamed as she tried to shake the bars. Lloyd still sat silent.

Harumi’s lip curled up. “Say SOMETHING!”

The throne room faded into silence. Harumi had her breath held, waiting to spit back in Lloyd’s face when he finally admitted it- but he never did. Instead, the ninja sat up just enough so his head was at the same height as hers so he could look her dead in the eye.

“I don’t believe it.”

Harumi choked. Lloyd could see her mind racing inside her head as she searched for a response, but Lloyd kept speaking.

“You said that the greatest villain was the one who got away. So what am I?”

Her mind raced on. Her lips were slightly parted so that the edges of her teeth were barely seen before the blackness of her mouth. Her hand loosened some as it dawned on her what he was referring to.

“I got away. I escaped. I lived. Was that part of the plan?” Lloyd’s words were harsh, spoken carefully but yet with so much power.

Harumi recoiled her hand. Even though he couldn’t reveal it, a surge of joy shot through Lloyd. His suspicions- though terrifying- were correct.

“It shouldn’t be much to assume that Emperor Garmadon wants you to bring me to him. And it’s not much to assume in your part that he is going to kill me where I stand if you do.”

The glitter in her eyes went cold. Her lips tightened and the flush in her cheeks drained. The ninja knew the truth now, and he began to feel sick to his stomach.

“Why am I here?” Lloyd asked her. “Why am I hiding in a cage here while Emperor Garmadon waits? He probably doesn’t even know you are here-doesn’t he?”

He saw her flinch. Lloyd had just called her out for treason, but his accusations were not faulty.

“Tell me why, Harumi!” Now Lloyd crept closer to the bars. He grasped the cool metal as he bore into her eyes and repeated, “Tell me why-“

“Because I need you!”

Lloyd’s throat turned to lead. Two and a half weeks ago his heart would’ve fluttered uncontrollably and he would have not controlled the massive smile that would overcome his face. Now, he felt as if Zane had risen from the dead just to freeze all the fluids in Lloyd’s body.

Harumi looked crushed. Her eyes were still glittering but now it was glittering with tears. None had escaped her eyes yet as she cast them down to her hands, laying dejectedly on her knees. With a clang, Lloyd fell back down so that he slammed into the bars on the other side of the cage. When the princess spoke again, it was barely a whisper as if she was afraid of the words leaving her mouth.

“I didn’t want to believe it either,” she breathed, not even trying to make eye contact. “My plan was so thought out- it was infallible. I knew what I had to do and I was prepared for every choice-every move-every sacrifice. My ultimate goal had to be achieved and the ninja- especially you- had to pay.”

She shuddered a heavy breath that sounded more like a sob. The lead in Lloyd’s throat started to burn, a sensation he immediately feared.

She continued. “When I saw first saw you I had so much bottled hatred towards you that had manifested over many years. I wanted to hurt you so badly, but I had to act as an ally until we had escaped the Oni Temple. I had you all fooled. I had you fooled. And I.... I fooled myself.

“Too late I realized I was more of an ally to you. I was even more than a friend. You had feelings for me. My first thought should have been celebratory. I had fooled the Green Ninja into falling for me. It would have been something I would laugh over when I ruled with Emperor Garmadon. But... I was terrified. At first I didn’t know why I was so scared of my fear. Then it hit me.”

She stumbled on her words, making them inaudible. Simultaneously a tear shot down her cheek. The burning in Lloyd’s throat was throbbing now, and it had spread to his eyes.

She wiped her cheek. “I didn’t realize it then, but my ultimate goal had shifted. Raising Garmadon was still the end game in my mind but now there was something else. Something my... heart needed.

“It shouldn’t have been true. How could I have made such a mistake? You were Lloyd Garmadon, the Green Ninja that has barely saved Ninjago time after time and leaving pain and death in your wake.” Lloyd flinched at the harsh words, but now he knew it was true. That made the words hurt like knives in his stomach. “But when I faked my friendship with you, I recognized things about you the textbooks didn’t. Like your relationship with your father. Your unfaltering faith in your friends. Your curiosity about me. How much you truly cared. The way you smile when you are cocky-“

Her cheeks reddened a tad from embarrassment. Lloyd tried to swallow but it felt like he was drinking molten lava.

“It was stupid of me. You are the bad guy. I am the good guy. I shouldn’t....I can’t feel that way. But I...”

Her voiced was drained out by the silence. Suddenly Lloyd realized she was staring at him. He blinked hard and dropped his gaze. “If-“ Lloyd tried speaking but his voice screeched like metal being scraped. “If you did feel...that way...then...why? Why let them...die?!”

“You wouldn’t understand....” Harumi whispered back. “You had to be broken like I have to truly love me.”

Every burning question he had about Harumi was answered in that one response. It all made sense. Ever since he met the young princess just a few weeks ago he’d been slowly stripping away layer after layer, mask after mask. He thought the Quiet One was her true face but even that assumption was wrong. That was the first mask she had to wear to hide-

The scared little girl that had just lost her parents.

Lloyd sucked in a shaky breath. For almost two weeks now he had despised her, not only for resurrecting a monster of a father but for crushing his heart. But now, underneath all that hate was a tiny bit of guilt. This girl didn’t deserve the revengeful life she had put upon herself. She didn’t deserve the blood on her hands or the fear that comes with her name. She deserved to be happy, to be loved.

Lloyd wanted someone to love her. He wanted-

The words were out of his mouth before he realized he was thinking them. He felt his body stiffen just as Harumi did the same. She stifled a gasp and covered her mouth with her hand. For a second they stared wide eyed at each other. Then in a blink of an eye the keys to the cage were ripped from somewhere on Harumi’s body and the cage door was torn open with the force that could rip someone’s arm clean out of their socket.

Lloyd’s first thought was that this was finally the cage he would die in, but was immediately mistaken. Harumi threw herself on the ninja, not even caring about his injuries, and locked her mouth on his.

Every single muscle in Lloyd’s body went on high alert, ready to strike her down and escape. His ninja-mind instinctively plotted over a dozen ways he could trap her in the cage but yet he didn’t move an inch.

His heart was too strong.

*****************************************

The two guards jumped when the doors to the Throne Room shot open with a bang. They clutched their weapons at the ready, but relaxed when they saw a flurry of long white hair flutter past them. The Quiet One dashed down the hallway and vanished around the corner.

Exchanging a weird glance, they peered back into the large room where the trapped Green Ninja remained in his cage with his hands planted on the metal flooring and his dark eyes wide in panic. They could hear his gasping breath even from the doorway.

One of the guards prodded the other with his hand. “The Quiet One really got him, didn’t she?” he mumbled with a smirk. “The ninja looks terrified.”

“What do you think she did to him?” the other guard hissed with a smirk of his own, hiding his own terrified mind.

“By the look of his face, I bet she lied and said they finally found the four ninja’s bodies. And then tossed them in the ocean for the sharks to finish off.”

They nodded together with devious smiles. Glancing one last time down the hallway to where The Quiet One had vanished, they walked back in the Throne Room and regained their posts.

They never noticed how red Harumi’s face had been when she fled the room.

They had been right about Lloyd being terrified, but it wasn’t about a lie. It wasn’t even about Harumi.

He was more terrified of himself than he had ever been in his life.
