Dreams of that would be more likely than Squenix and Capcom combining for Theatrhythm: Mega Man (X), at least.
I'd like to see a Theatrhythm Guilty Gear or Blazblue.

Samus, Link, and others made into Theatrhythm characters
I adore Theatrhythm's doll-like recreations of iconic Final Fantasy characters. So does pixiv artist Mafen if his portfolio is any indication. Check out our gallery below for Samus, Link, Fire Emblem's Lyndis, and The Space Adventure's Cobra re-imagined as Theatrhythm characters. Maybe we'll get something along these lines via DLC in the future. Though I have a feeling DLC characters wouldn't include Nintendo's flagship characters. Just a vibe I'm getting here.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)I love Theatrhythm right now, and I only want more. If they could do a Nintendo property, that would be great but... I still want a Kingdom Hearts one Square. I'm going to be an insufferable prude and point out that this art style actually debuted with Kingdom Hearts Mobile. So there. I was actually thinking this morning that The Legend of Zelda is likely a franchise that could be excellent for a Theatrhythm style of game. It would be lovely if Nintendo and Squenix could work out a deal, similar to Super Mario RPG, and have such a game. It is on the 3DS, after all.
Dreams of that would be more likely than Squenix and Capcom combining for Theatrhythm: Mega Man (X), at least. I like the gameplay- but not so much the dead-eye-doll art style. Also, the terrible random quote generator explains a lot. They must have been using this system to generate text for Kingdom Hearts and Dissidia rather that hiring actual writers, hence why those series have such terrible dialogue.
