Mario Tennis Aces

Now imagine it's just electricity.
 
I'm loving how huge and inclusive the roster is this time around. I'm really hoping for an appearance from an RPG character, but we have Kamek, so I'm fine for now.
 
I feel like the whole RPG character thing is like Sonic's Knack the Weasel. They're fairly popular characters within their small niche, but outside of that, no one really knows who they are because they're part of that small niche which tends to make them overlooked by Nintendo.

I mean, it would be nice if Nintendo did acknowledge that but the chances are very unlikely, especially in favor of putting new characters that more people are familiar with, such as Pauline or Boom Boom. I don't think there's ever been a large franchise, especially as large as Mario's, that has acknowledged everything the series has (but if there is one pardon my ignorance). Zelda doesn't do it (Hyrule Warriors afaik didn't reference the handheld games), Kirby doesn't do it (nothing from say Kirby's Avalanche but at the very least they're a bit more liberal with it in terms of collectibles and stuff), and Pokemon doesn't do it. Mario is pretty lucky to begin with to have all of those spin-offs with potential for playable characters too, I think it's pretty much the only franchise with stuff like, tennis, golf, kart, party, etc all at once.
 
Play Nintendo is officially toxic and problematic

Still tho, i guess thse sites are managed by people who don't play or know things about the games.

Yeah this is exactly what I've realized and as someone who would absolutely die of happiness if they did start using them, I'm hoping one of these days they get a glance when Nintendo's brainstorming new additions. I have seen some degree of support for Fawful as DLC on Twitter, like more than I usually see, so maybe Nintendo sees it. Not getting my hopes up though
