Super Smash Bros Switch: 10 Ways Nintendo Can Learn From Their Best Games

2. ARMS Fighters As Playable Characters

The first entirely new characters to make the list arrive from Nintendo's newest fighting game, ARMS.

As a marketing push for the Switch exclusive, it seems almost a given that we'll get at least one, if not two, characters from that game appear as playable fighters in the next Smash Bros. The poster characters, Spring Man and Ribbon Girl, are the most likely contenders to get a coveted spot in the roster, although Nintendo could use one of the more obscure characters as an Assist Trophy.

Smash Bros has become Nintendo's own homegrown marketing machine, so it would seem silly not to include one of their most nascent series.
