Rool is owned by Rare and Microsoft, he is not coming to Smash." King K.Rool Comes Aboard!

"Rex is the main character of Xenoblade 2, it's him or nothing, we may get Rex and Pyra as a double Fighter, but not Pyra, Mythra or another one without Rex." "Rex is already a Mii Costume, since we are not getting Rex, we won't get Pyra either."

"Min Min was an exception, Spirits still disconfirm." "Pyra and Mythra are too sexy, after what happened with Mai Shiranui, they can't join the playable roster." "We are not getting a Tekken character in Smash Ultimate, Heihachi is already a Mii Costume, if they were going to add a Tekken character, they wouldn't have revealed the Mii Costume alongside Min Min". "Mii Costumes don't just disconfirm the character or the franchise represented, they disconfirm all characters from the Third-Party company that got a Mii Costume." "A Tekken character is never going to be in Smash, you can't adapt a 3D fighting game to a 2D game like Smash, Sakurai already said it was too hard." "A Tekken character is never going to be in Smash, Tekken is a niche series that only sold well thanks to bargain bin sales." "Heihachi is the mascot of the Tekken franchise, it's him or nothing."

"Characters who are already Mii Costumes will never be promoted to Fighters with DLC." "Free Mii Costumes can be promoted to Fighters with DLC, but paid Mii Costumes can't, it would be a scam to sell the character as a Costume, then sell the same character as a Fighter." "Characters who are already Assist Trophies will never be promoted to Fighters with DLC." "Games that had a Spirit Event will not get a character in Smash, even the characters who didn't become Spirits are disconfirmed." "We can't have two characters from the same Third-Party company in the same Fighter Pass." "Characters from gory and violent games like Doom, Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil and GTA are still impossible." "Cloud and Joker appeared as cameos in games released on Nintendo platforms, we just can't have a character that never appeared at all in any game on a Nintendo hardware." "Waluigi will never be in Smash because he is irrelevant, only appears in spin-offs, has no moveset potential, has no personality, and was never in any mainline Mario game, Waluigi is just a meme." "Isaac will never be in Smash because the Golden Sun series failed in sales, only had three games, and doesn't have a new game for over a decade." "I don't care if there's a Piranha Plant in this game, Bandana Waddle Dee will never be in Smash because he is boring, and irrelevant to his own franchise, he only exists to be the Player 4, he is worse than a Piranha Plant." "Geno will never be in Smash because he is dead, irrelevant, literal who, he has no importance to the history of Nintendo or videogames, he is missing for over 20 years, only boomers care about him, his DLC would fail in sales and they should give the spot for someone important, Third-Party characters need relevance, and if they are adding a fourth Square-Enix character it should be another, and don't compare him with Banjo because at least Banjo is the main character of his franchise which had 5 games while Geno is irrelevant to his own franchise and was only in one game." "Sora will never be in Smash, he is not a videogame character, Disney will never allow him to join Smash." "Shantae will never be in Smash, her games never sold well with only 3 million copies sold, many indie games sold more than that and are way more popular, Matt Bozon had to beg to get her just as a Spirit in Ultimate, plus, Shantae games aren't good and her fans are just horny." "Saber will never be in Smash because her game is p---, actual p---." "Reimu, Marisa, or any other Touhou character, will never be in Smash, Touhou Project is just a niche indie franchise made by one guy and is only popular in Japan, Nintendo has no business with it." "Characters need to be relevant to their own games to join Smash, stop supporting characters like Geno, Waluigi and Bandana Dee, at least characters like Ness, Ice Climbers, R.O.B., Wii Fit Trainer, Piranha Plant and Banjo are important in their games or are the main characters." "Indie characters like Shantae, Shovel Knight, Quote and Hat Kid will never be in Smash." "Stop asking for characters from mobile games like Dragalia Lost and Fire Emblem Heroes, mobile games aren't real games." "Franchises that never sold well in Japan like Spyro, Rayman or Mortal Kombat, or never had their games released in Japan like StarTropics, will never be in Smash." "Franchises like Digimon and Yo-Kai Watch are competitors to Pokémon, they will never get a rep in Smash." "Forgotten and obscure Nintendo characters like Takamaru, Mach Rider, Prince of Sablé and Mike Jones don't have a chance." How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?!

At this point I think the only two valid "rules" are:

1) Must be a video game character (Sakurai himself has stated as much).

2) Mii Fighter costumes are a consolation prize for characters who did not make the cut; that may change in a later game or DLC season, but it's unlikely they'd do something nonsensical like release a Dante costume in Pack 10 only to make the real Dante playable in Pack 11.
