Terra or Crono would be the best choices.

Shame it p much has to be a game character.

Edward Elric would be a good option otherwise!

Crono would be the "best" choice as far as being iconic + tied to Nintendo, but I kinda feel like Geno is more likely because of how established the fan demand for him is, like what happened with Ridley

Sora would be a great fit also, but the Disney issue probably sinks that yeah

If it's anyone FF I guess it'd be Noctis but that doesn't seem super likely; Seph would prob have a shot if he was one of multiple new SE reps but the leak says there's only one so rip

DQ isn't really known for its playable characters, I thought? but smth like a Slime assist trophy would be cute

He's been in games though. And maybe it doesn't have to be a character who got his start in video games anyway - I mean, we always thought that was always a hard and fast rule for the GameFAQs Character Battle, but now we have a character from a book series as a 1 seed just because he was in a couple of video games. Maybe Sakurai will follow the same mindset as SBAllen.

For everyone who's talking about the "fan demand" for SNES-era non-FF characters over modern-day FF characters, what are you using as your measuring stick? The late twenties/early thirties American demographic GameFAQs skews towards? I feel like everyone's forgetting how very Japanocentric Nintendo tends to be when making decisions.

That, plus they don't really seem to care too much about legacy games with cult followings, considering half of the Fire Emblem cast in the last Smash was created for games that had come out after 2011 (and that Smash game came out in 2014, with DLC wrapping up in 2015).

Also, from the article in the first post:

This latest Smash Bros. Ultimate leak comes from Jacien, a frequent commenter on the GameFAQs forum who claims to have some inside info.

So... just like every other poster on the Smash board?

I'm guessing they would go for someone like Noctis or Lightning. Though imagine if... Wakka was in the game. That would be cool.

Sora would be amazing given all they could do with him. I dont know how the whole Disney/Square license there works though. Like I just figured all the Disney worlds and characters were Disney while Sora, Riku, Kairi, Org 13, etc are all Square along with the FF characters

DQ11 coming to Switch soon, so obviously we'll get DQ11 Hero as DLC to commemorate its release~

I feel like Crono would be more likely if they'd put CT on the SNES Classic.

Other way around, actually - all the KH-specific stuff is actually owned exclusively by Disney. The only characters owned by S-E are the ones that come from their other IPs (like the FF or TWEWY characters).

One of the main places you can see this is in the copyright disclaimers - Disney has to include them for anything not 100% owned by them that gets used in the game. As a result, here's the disclaimer from the original game:

2002 Disney Tarzan owned by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. and used by permission Copyright Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc and Disney Enterprises, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Touchstone Pictures. Characters from FINAL FANTASY video game series
1990, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2002 SQUARE CO., LTD. All rights reserved.

If Disney had to credit the estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs for his ownership of Tarzan (and therefore co-ownership of Disney's Tarzan), and they also credited Square for the FF characters, there's no way the main characters of this game were going to slip under the radar without getting credited the same way if they belonged to Square.

But they don't. They belong to Disney.

Also, actual photos from Disney parks:

Because they own KH, you see.

Unspecified SE character would not be another FF character. Maybe other SNES Square RPG. I wouldn't be surprised by Dragon Quest.
