Unpopular opinions about the Super Smash Bros series.

I think it depends on how you use the word. If you say that a character deserves to be in because they are a popular character or are relevant, then you're just saying reasons why you think they would be a good pick for Smash, and there's nothing wrong with that. But if you say something like they deserved it over another character out of saltiness, that's when it goes wrong. It's not so much about the semantics as it is about their motivation for saying it. Are they just saying who they want to see or are they angry that their character didn't get in?
 
I know this is obvious by now, but this thread was made for unpopular opinions... so what's the harm at saying it here once and for all?

Isabelle is my most hyped newcomer so far. Also imgaine taking on EVERYONE in all-star mode as her.

Of course, if Bandana Dee gets in, things could change...
 
Wario is not a bad character to play as in Smash...contrary to SOME PEOPLE'S (wrong) opinions. *cough* Baby Luigi & Bazooka Mario *cough cough*

Not sure where this falls into in terms of popularity "opinion vs fact", but I think a controversial observation could still fit into this thread.

Isabelle is like Rosalina. No no, not in the case MatPat's dumb ramblings.
Rosalina and Isabelle both appeared in the their respective series late in the game (pun not intended, but welcome).
They both skyrocketed in popularity in an extremely short period of time.
They did not get playable roles in the Smash Bros. game immediately after their respective debuts (Brawl for Rosalina and Smash 4 for Isabelle), but in the Smash Bros. after that, they're now playable as representatives for their series.

Now for a controversial question. It's common to see the opinion that Isabelle shouldn't be in Smash due to not being a good representative for the Animal Crossing series or being too new for such a role. Should not other characters, such as Rosalina, get the same treatment? Where is the line drawn?
 
Depends on their role in the game. For example, Corrin got a playable role before his game even came out.

And his reception wasn't too...positive to say the least.
