Top 10 Most Wanted New Characters for Super Smash Bros. 6

Tails (Sonic the Hedgehog)

Miles "Tails" Prower is a fictional character in Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series. He is Sonic's best friend and sidekick. Tails is known for his ability to fly using his two tails like a helicopter rotor.

This, Bandana Waddle Dee, and Ōkami Amaterasu are the only characters that are unique enough to be strong candidates and, let's face it, are not TV characters originally.
In terms of gameplay, all of them would be unique. Tails can actually fly and could conceivably use his two tails as a saw-like weapon. Bandana Dee would be the first spear weapon Smash has. And don't get me started on Ammy. High-range Rosaries, high-damage Glaives (glav-a), and all-around Reflectors would all be unique weapons. And, of course, the Celestial Brush. Ammy literally removes the time dimension to paint her attacks on enemies. Not to mention she has 15 different brush techniques that allow for ample move opportunities.
Character-wise, Tails would be the second Sonic character, BWD would be the fourth Kirby character, and Amaterasu would be just the third Capcom character. Let's face it, we don't need a tenth Mario character. We already complain about Fire Emblem having eight.
Between these three, I'd say Ammy is definitely most wanted. She'd be just the third character from her entire brand. SEGA has way more, and Nintendo already has a monopoly.

Paper Mario (Paper Mario)

Bandana Dee (Kirby)

We need more Kirby representation. We already have three characters from Sakurai's home series.

Waluigi (Super Mario Bros.)

Waluigi is a tall, self-centered, and rough-around-the-edges character who is often portrayed as Luigi's rival. He frequently causes chaos in various Mario spinoff games, usually paired with Wario. While he acts antagonistically, Waluigi is not truly evil and often shows loyalty and affection, especially... read more

I feel like Waluigi should have a spot in Super Smash. I mean, if Wario is in, why not Waluigi? I don't understand why he isn't included. It doesn't really make sense.

He's been neglected for too long.

Why isn't Waluigi in Smash Bros.?

Doctor Eggman (Sonic the Hedgehog)

Doctor Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik is a fictional character created by Naoto Ohshima for Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series. He serves as the primary antagonist, often clashing with Sonic in his quest for world domination. Eggman is depicted as a brilliant but mad scientist who leads the Eggman Empire and creates... read more

They should have added Eggman. They added Mario's arch-enemy, Bowser (plus his son, Bowser Jr.), Link's arch-enemy, Ganon, Kirby's arch-enemy, King Dedede, Donkey Kong and Diddy's arch-enemy, King K. Rool, Star Fox's arch-enemy, Wolf, Samus's arch-enemy, Ridley, Pit's enemy, Dark Pit, and even Cloud's arch-enemy, Sephiroth.
Why not add Sonic's arch-enemy, Eggman? Their victory conversations when they win against each other would be so funny.

Since we got Cloud and Sephiroth in Ultimate, let's add Tifa to the mix.

Though it's unlikely Nintendo would ever include a character from Mortal Kombat, if there were even the slightest chance they could add one, it should be Sub-Zero.
