TSR's Super Smash Bros Thread|SWITCH HYPE TRAIN NOW BOARDING

[Kriven]

There is far too much Mario representation in Super Smash Brothers.

I disagree. Mario is a vast property, one that can easily be divided into a number of franchises. Even disregarding Donkey Kong, Yoshi, and Wario, the Mario series can be reasonably split into: Kart, Sports, Platformers, RPGs, Party. That's five unique franchises which all appeal to unique audiences for different reasons, and which are all incredibly successful to Nintendo.

Compare that to any other Nintendo property: Fire Emblem, Legend of Zelda, Metroid... One franchise each, usually with fewer games per generation.

No, Mario has earned all the rep it gets.
