I love it. I think it is hilarious and a better addition than some Japanese character I've never been introduced to in any other game.

I love it. Smash Bros need more dumb characters.

That is pretty awesome.

Nah, not lovably dumb. Just dumb.

The healthy fighter. Hilarious.

Also I will now never forgive Nintendo for showing me what a Mega Man 2 remake could be. That Mega Man model is Absolutely glorious. And the Dr. Wily theme remix? Why would you do that to me you bastards!

@fluxwavez: great video.

It's very dumb, but it's also very sad.

I'm hoping one of the Villagers alternate costumes is a female version.

So anyone think Krystal from Star Fox could be a possibility?

I gotta admit, I don't know how to react to this. I'm putting it in things that are a little "bleagh" to me about this game (with Megaman's original design not translating well to 3D in my opinion and Zero Suit Samus' redesign) mostly because it's just such a weird choice. Although I am willing to give this a try. I'm always up for more female characters in my Smash Bros and she could be a lot of fun to play as.

This is a surprise bump, but anyway.

The Wii Fit Trainer is an example of a character selection that makes perfect sense for Smash Bros., particularly given the odd natures of characters from previous games. It's always been host to oddballs like Mr. Game & Watch, unconventional picks like the Ice Climbers, and characters that aren't normally seen outside of a context in which they're directly controlled or seen for the most part (Captain Falcon). The Wii Fit Trainer fits that train of thought perfectly.
