Since the last one, I've been wanting a Dragon Quest main to hit Smash. It feels weird that it hasn't happened, yet. As much as I love Ness, I'd say it's surprising he was the first RPG representative. It's even stranger that Cloud got in before, really. Dragon Quest is super popular in Japan, defined the RPG as a genre, continues to pump out games to this day and - aside from one game that went to the PS2 instead, and then recently was ported to the 3DS anyways - every game in the series has been released on a Nintendo console. DQ8 is the most iconic one in modern history, and the port came out between Sm4sh and this one, so I'd love to see the Hero from that show up.
Which DQ main would be chosen do you think?
