I have to say, I think this is one series Nintendo has covered nicely. I don't think SSB4 needs Knuckle Joe, but I really don't know much about the guy. Anyway, the three they've done with are all unique and interesting enough to keep around, I believe. I was unaware that Metaknight looks like a blue Kirby under the mask. That's pretty interesting.

Okay how about I go way left field on this one.... *ahem* Adeleine, the chick with the paint brush from Kirby's Dream Land 3 & Kirby 64, should be an assist. Then Dark matter/ Zero (Zero Two) should be a boss.

Kirby has had a depreciating value about him.  In the first S.S.B. he was really tough do deal with.  He was good in Melee, but was a little weaker.  It's a little hard to use him in Brawl because of the many heavy characters and attacks used in the game.  But, he is still a good fighter reguardless of anything.

While Kirby is probably adequetely covered, me and my monk-disorder want there to be 4 Kirby characters, and Knuckle Joe simply seemed to be the most prominent. Maybe if the mythic Wii Kirby introduces some awesome new character, they can take Knuckles place.

Thats actually a really good idea. I'm honestly considering changing Joe to Adeleine, but either one would be a good assist trophy(obviously Knuckle Joe has already shown us he has the chops).

People say he has gotten weaker, but I would say that he is just becoming more balanced. I'd argue that in the original he was a bit overpowered. these days you can win with almost anyone in the game.

AgentJ: You have made a very good point.  I agree! :D  I think that Brawl made the characters more realistic.

I think that instead of the knuckle joe maybe the animals from the old kirby games should be used, you know: the hamster, fish and owl, it would be cool but that is highly unlikely.
Also i don't know how the fish would handle itself on the ground, maybe they could make some water based levels in the new Smash Bros. where you're actually underwater.... bah i dont know :P
