Shrek Super Slam Tier List
For DreamWorks Shrek SuperSlam on the PlayStation 2, GameFAQs has 16 cheat codes and secrets. Monsieur Hood (known as Robin Hood in the game) appears an unlock-able character in Shrek Super Slam. His super slam is his fast raging arrows. He also appears with his Merrymen in the Shrek 2 video game as mini-bosses/enemies. He's made appearances in Shrek Super Party as a playable character and Shrek's Carnival Craze in two.
Stay on target.Another Smash Direct has come and gone, with the Grinch leaks pretty much disproven and the roster rumored to be the biggest ever — 74 characters from all over Nintendo’s gaming history. Super Smash Bros. Has always been about abundance, but this is getting pretty ridiculous.If Nintendo is going to go all-out, let’s really go all-out. Here are our picks for 108 MORE playable characters we want to see in. In keeping with tradition, if a character has appeared on a Nintendo platform we consider them fair game.
Stanley the BugmanWhy should Mario be the most famous nemesis of? The hero of Donkey Kong 3 has appeared as an assist trophy, but we want to control the poison-spraying exterminator for real in Smash. RaymanThe limbless platforming hero has been rumored for Smash for what seems like a decade, so why not pull the trigger on him and make his fans happy? Chibi-RoboAdmittedly he’s a little smaller than most of the cast at just 10cm tall, but if Olimar can hack it so can the cute little household robot who debuted on the GameCube in 2005.
Ivy ValentineNintendo loaned Zelda to the Soul Calibur series back in the GameCube days, so Namco should pay back the favor by letting Ivy duke it out with Bayonetta for “least appropriate character in Smash.” 102. Weird Skinny MarioThere are tons of different Links in the series, but we need more Marios. Let’s demand the bizarre bug-derived “Skinny Mario” from Super Mario Maker be playable.
Wonderful 101Hideki Kamiya’s oddball Wii U game let you control a swarm of heroes fighting against giant foes together. It was originally conceptualized as a Smash-like crossover game, so why not go the other direction? Spring ManARMS was an attempt to establish a new fighting franchise that took advantage of the unique controls of the Switch, and while it didn’t set the world on fire it gave us some fun characters to exploit. FirebrandCapcom’s gargoyle made his debut as a Red Arremer in Ghouls & Ghosts before starring in a number of other Nintendo platform titles, and he’s also been playable in fighting game form in the Marvel vs.
Capcom series. Manny CalaveraSticking on the horror tip, how awesome would it be to see the skeleton detective of Tim Schaefer’s Grim Fandango resurrected to beat the bones in a fighting game? The PrinceWhich Prince? Why, the ball-rolling workaholic from the Katamari Damacy games, who is tasked by his father the King of the Cosmos with rolling up junk – like other fighters.
PlokThe red and yellow hero of this oddball SNES platformer loved to throw hands – literally. His main mode of attack was ejecting his limbs at foes at high and painful speeds. Cooking MamaThe stern yet loving judge of a series of popular portable and console titles brings knives, frying pans and a massive recipe book into the fray.
Billy HatcherSega’s egg-rolling hero could use his massive charge for a variety of special attacks in Smash, and it deserves special mention for being one of the first times a Sega game dropped on a Nintendo system. SparksterThe Super Nintendo was home to a host of “mascot platformers,” any of which could probably work well in Smash. Let’s go with this armored opossum with a laser sword and jetpack. EndirThe gruff mercenary hero of I Am Setsuna would fit right in with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate‘s sword squad while being just different enough to merit inclusion.
MinionsThere have been a few Despicable Me tie-in games on the DS, so that officially makes the Minions fair game for Smash. Sometimes that’s all the reason we need. OctodadThe protagonist of the hit physics-based indie puzzle stealth comedy is an octopus pretending to be a normal human dad. He’s used to fighting for his life. Jack CaymanOne of the absolute weirdest Wii titles, MadWorld was a black and white brawler that starred Jack, a foul-mouthed badass with a chainsaw for a hand and a thirst for ultraviolence. GoemonThe lead character of the Mystical Ninja games might not have a ton of name recognition Stateside but he could fill up a box on the character select screen just fine.
ShiftySwitch indie sensation Mr. Shifty features a main character with the power of instantaneous short-range teleportation – a skill he uses mostly for crime. It would translate beautifully to the Smash franchise. PockleThe protagonist of Giftpia doesn’t seem like a badass, considering that his whole game was about working off a massive debt incurred by oversleeping.
But weirder things have happened! Shiren The WandererChunsoft’s long-running roguelike hero has made many appearances on Nintendo platforms, so why not let him battle for survival in a game where he has more than one life? TurokThe titular dinosaur hunter was the star of a number of very successful Nintendo 64 first-person shooters, and we’re sure the licensing costs to get him back are pretty cheap. Bub & BobSmash has already done duo characters with the Ice Climbers, so why not use that formula for Taito’s cute dinosaur stars of Bubble Bobble and let them encase their foes in bubbles and float them off the stage?
AmaterasuThe canine star of Okami made her fighting game debut with Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, but her brushwork attacks and elemental powers would make her a good fit for Smash as well.
JuanThe masked luchador star of the two Guacamelee games already has a robust moveset perfectly suited to acrobatic combat on a 2D platforming plane, so most of the work is done. MaxwellThe Scribblenauts games are famous for their outside-the-box approach to puzzle solving, so what would happen if hero Maxwell tried the same thing in a fighting context? ToejamToejam & Earl is a franchise that has somehow managed to stand the test of time, stretching from the Genesis original in 1991 to a new installment coming next year. The three-legged red alien is a lock for Smash. EarlWell you can’t have one of them without the other, right? Earl is the big beefy grappler to Toejam’s agile striker, and look, we just filled up two spots.
The monkey mascot of Sega’s Samba De Amigo rhythm game could use his trademark maracas in a number of offensive ways – or just play a duet with Donkey Kong on the bongos. Ryu HayabusaYes, the game already has Ryu from Street Fighter, but the protagonist of the Ninja Gaiden games has been delivering intense, bone-hard action to gamers since the NES days so let’s bring him in. NintendogIt’s patently unfair that the cute little puppies from the unexpected DS hit have been relegated to assist trophy status in previous Smash games. Let us be the dogs! OtusThe protagonist of Owlboy, the indie hit that took a staggering 11 years to develop, isn’t particularly combat-oriented but his unique movement abilities could make him a comer. Kawase UmiharaThe heroine of the Umihara Kawase franchise of innovative platformers traverses space with a fishing line, using it to swing, drop and stun enemies. Sounds like a fighting game character to me.
Tony MontanaScarface: The World Is Yours was released for the Wii in 2007, which means Al Pacino’s legendary Cuban-born gangster is technically a Nintendo character. BirdoThe egg-spitting dinosaur from Super Mario 2 has become a fan favorite character and could stand out in Smash with a mixed of range and melee attacks. GooseThe feathered antihero of Untitled Goose Game is coming to the Switch in 2019, but why not announce him for Smash Ultimate before then? Troll picks forever. Mike HaggarThe mayor of Metro City has a long and fruitful association with Nintendo going back to the first Final Fight, but Smash needs more grapplers and more mustaches so let’s get him in. Mike JonesStarTropics is one of Nintendo’s lesser-known franchises, and hero Mike Jones has been waiting for his chance at a big comeback for decades. Let him bring his yo-yo to the big stage.
Swords and soldiers hd. Earthworm JimThe stretchy boneless hero in the super-suit was a popular platformer franchise during the SNES era, and creator Doug TenNapel is probably cool with you using him. GumbyIt’s hard to believe that it took until 2005 for somebody to exploit the Gumby license for a video game, but Gumby and the Astrobots was bad enough nobody will do it again. Give him some redemption in Smash. SoraThe hero of the Kingdom Hearts games hoists his Keyblade and joins the fray alongside Squaresoft cohort Cloud Strife and probably not any Disney characters this time. Aries The CheetahmanIf Nintendo really wanted to get sassy and meta they’d grab this character from unlicensed 1991 game The Cheetahmen, included on the notorious “Action 52” cartridge of low-quality efforts. Captain ToadIt’s time for to step aside and let his supporting cast have some time to shine. Captain Toad already got his own game, so put him on the Smash roster.
So what if he can’t jump? Spongebob SquarepantsThe rectangular undersea fast food wage slave has appeared in a number of licensed titles on Nintendo systems, so why not make a grab for that sweet, sweet money?
GonThe stubby little T. Rex created by mangaka Masashi Tanaka had his own Japanese SNES game, and also appeared as a hidden character in Tekken 3. That’s all we need. BlankaThe Street Fighter series is well-represented with Ken and Ryu, but Nintendo should come to Brazil and throw in everybody’s favorite green-furred wild man so he can Blanka Ball up to the ledge.
NamakubiObscure and super-weird NES game Zombie Nation had players controlling the disembodied head of legendary samurai Namakubi spitting fire at enemies. Put him in Smash, you cowards. TingleThe rupee-obsessed Tingle wants to become a “forest fairy” and thinks the best way to do so is by wearing a skin-tight leotard and acting weird as hell.
Imagine winning a major as Tingle. Salt would flow. TakamaruThe protagonist of old-school Famicom game The Mysterious Murasame Castle is enjoying a bit of a popularity spurt in recent years, so let’s recognize the samurai here. GunvoltOne of the best-received action titles of recent years is Azure Striker Gunvolt, and the lead’s targeting abilities and electrical skills could make for a fun Smash character. Meat BoyThe grisly masocore platforming hero doesn’t really have any offensive capabilities, but that hasn’t stopped other fighters from stepping into the arena. Derek StilesThe protagonist of the Trauma Center series of surgery games can use his medical skills to hurt, not heal on the battlefield of Super Smash Bros.
Zack & WikiThe heroes of Capcom’s underrated Wii puzzle adventure are all about working together to navigate ruins full of treasure, and Wiki’s ability to transform objects by shaking them could have cool gameplay uses. Bayou BillyThe swamp-dwelling NES survivalist hasn’t been seen since his 1988 debut, but he’s one of the only NES characters to get his own Archie comic so that earns him a spot here.
David Lee RothThe Wii was home to a lot of shovelware, but it did get Guitar Hero: Van Halen, featuring a digital recreation of the “Hot for Teacher” singer, so that makes him eligible to battle in the Smash Bros. SlendermanWhy not? Slender: The Arrival hit the Wii U in 2015, which makes the terrifying predator of creepypasta eligible to be in Smash. A Boy And His BlobThe protagonists of David Crane’s oddball NES game have a lot of utility – feed the amorphous blob jellybeans and it’ll change into anything you need. Assuming, that is, you have the right flavor.
MogIt’s fair to say that Final Fantasy III (or VI, depending on how you want to look at it) is one of the SNES’s all-time greats, so why not bring out the dancing moogle for a little fighting fun? Scott O’ConnorBayonetta isn’t the first video game fighter to attack with her hair – that goes to the star of 1991’s Kabuki: Quantum Fighter, a digitized hero who whips robotic foes with his bright red mane. Let’s get fierce with a style-off on the Switch. ImpaWe dug Hyrule Warriors a lot, so why not bring out one of the biggest badasses from that game – Impa, Zelda’s bodyguard who cuts down suckers like straw with her sword and naginata. KawashimaThe digitized face of this Japanese neuroscientist helped walk you through the Brain Age games on the DS, so let him defend his theories with his fists! ShantaeCreated by WayForward, the purple-haired half-genie made her debut on Nintendo portables and even featured in a Wario Ware microgame so she’s on the roster.
The L BlockThere’s no denying that the success of the original black & white Game Boy was due in a big way to Tetris, so why not commemorate the franchise by letting us fight as the versatile L block? King HippoLittle Mac fit in just fine, so why not go back to the Punch-Out well with the massive brawler who has a weak spot in the middle of his behemoth tummy? Professor LaytonYes, he might be a little more cerebral than some of the other fighters on the roster, but combat is just another kind of puzzle and this guy slays at puzzles. MalloThe surprisingly strong sumo at the heart of the Pushmo games doesn’t look too tough, but we learned our lesson from Jigglypuff and won’t be underestimating him. Viewtiful JoeCapcom’s big-headed henshin hero has the power of time manipulation and breaking the fourth wall, making him a feared combatant despite the absurdly short length of his limbs. Bio Force ApeThe mutated chimpanzee star of a long-lost NES game didn’t see the light of day for twenty years, but maybe he was just waiting for his moment and his moment is Super Smash Bros. Neku SakurabaThe main character of Square’s The World Ends With You is accustomed to battling bizarre creatures in a dreamlike environment, so let him do it on a whole new platform.
ShrekOne of the funniest stories to come out of the fighting game community is the growth of a legit competitive scene around 2005 GameCube title Shrek Super Slam. Port the ogre over and let’s see what he can do. CubivoreWe already have a character who can swallow foes in, but the blocky protagonist of cult GameCube title Cubivore evolves and mates, which Kirby certainly does not do. FrogIf we’re going to keep Cloud company, why not deal in another swordsman from classic SNES role-playing game Chrono Trigger. There are plenty of human swordsmen in the game already, so Sir Frog gets the nod. BombermanHudson’s explosive-planting hero has appeared in dozens of games in his own franchise, but we’d love to see a trap-based character in the frenetic battlefields of Smash.
GenoThe Grinch leaks felt pretty strongly that this magical puppet from the classic Super Mario RPG will show up in the latest game, but we wanted to express our support here anyway. BowsetteNintendo has a real opportunity here to take the fan-created mashup of Mario’s greatest enemy and one true love and make her playable in Smash. Somebody already modded her into Super Mario 64.
DjangoThe hero of Konami’s GBA adventure Boktai is a vampire slayer who draws power from the sun – the cartridge actually had a light sensor in it to encourage you to go outside and game. DoomguySure, this might seem a little extreme, but if Solid Snake can find a home in Smash surely the original FPS hero can show up.
Let Doomguy blast his way out of Kirby’s candy-colored hell for a change.
