Most VG characters are weak in this if you think about it. Take away everything from Square and Smash Bros. and we're looking at a pretty awful field compared to what we're used to, and that's not even removing the pseudo-Nintendos like Mega Man.
Just based on that non-VG characters seems like it'd be massively deeper.
