He may not have set the world on fire with No More Heroes, but game designer and nutbag Goichi Suda wants Travis Touchdown in the next Super Smash Bros. game. Hoping to make Touchdown a big videogame star in his own right, Suda would love to see the nerdsome assassin duking it out with Mario and the gang.
"I love him, and I want him to be a huge star," Suda tells Nintendo Power. "That’s why I’m working very hard to make this game as interesting as possible. Maybe in the future, we can see him fighting alongside Link in the next Smash Bros. [laughs] That would be great."
As a big fan of Suda 51, I would like to see every wish of his come true. Considering Suda's close friendship with Hideo Kojima, whose very own Solid Snake was in Brawl, we could perhaps see this particular dream become a reality. Mainstream Wii owners probably wouldn't have the first clue who he is, but you can guarantee that he'd be a popular fixture among the hardcore set.
What do you say? Care for more Touchdown in your Smash Bros.?

"I'm thinking about breaking up with you, but will you still make a sex tape with me?"
Brawl was a TOTAL disappointment. WE WANT GAMEPLAY NOT CHARACTERS.
And I doubt there is anyone of you still playing brawl..
I played melee for over 6 years, and I couldnt play brawl for more than 6 days.
Who is with me?
That would definitely make me consider playing the franchise again. It really would.
oh wait no, you can't, because Nintendo lives in the stone ages and doesn't believe in gamers anymore.
I'm actually the same way! Years were spent playing Melee with friends. Brawl? Besides a one-off Brawl get together, it's been more than half a year since I've been able to enjoy a great Brawl party.
Anyways, Travis Touchdown in Smash = YES!
Request denied.
**** yeah!
you'd think, but solid snake made it in, so who knows?
You must be new here...
As an assist trophy? sure, I can see that
The saber as a weapon? oh hell yeah
Except that they already have a lightsaber...
@LK404:
Megaman seems to be a much more requested character than Sonic... Hopefully Nintendo loves Capcom as much as they love Sega.
There's a regular hammer and a golden hammer. Why not a regular saber and Travis' super saber?
TT and Mega man would be amazing
now if Square could stop being assholes and hand over Geno...
