This site is a grassroot campaign dedicated for supporting Lip's inclusion as playable in upcoming Nintendo All-Star fighting game Super Smash Brothers 4 for Wii U and 3DS, to finally let Nintendo have a deserving and original puzzle game representative, and another playable unique female protagonist.
Lip is one of Nintendo's few remaining characters that should become a playable character. She's known in Japan as the original protagonist and face of Panel De Pon. (as what Mario is to his series, Link is to his series, etc.)
To add, after the cutting of Dr.Mario in Brawl, Nintendo's in huge need of a deserving puzzle representative, which Lip would fill much more uniquely than Dr.Mario did.
Also back in SSB64-days, Sakurai had called Panel De Pon " a true masterpiece", suggesting people (interviewing him) go and try the game. Even if there's now been so far her item and few shoutouts (Kirby's Down B having pink garbage block as one of the forms, which is Lip's) and also her song, these might show that it might be a some sort of build up for her inclusion in SSB4.
This campaign aims to:
1- Support Lip's inclusion for SSB4.
2- Prove that Lip's deserving all-star to be playable at Smash.
3- Prove wrong the infamous beliefs around her making her chances slim which are:
- Her small and uninteresting moveset potential consisting her being only able to whack people with her stick, throw panels and drop garbage blocks as her only means of move.
- Being unrevelant to Nintendo's history and unpopular throughout the world.
-Her franchises are dead and she's not the protagonist nor the original representative of Panel De Pon.
- Her having a skirt which bans her from Smash for good and show the ways of solving that problem (One of em being bloomers.).
4- Design a moveset and playstyle for Lip showing all her potential as a flower fairy and also using mechanics and elements from Puzzle League games themselves.
If you're a fan of Lip or think she can do better than many people think, please do join this group! There's two groups deditaced on her inclusion in Smash:
Panel De Pwnage: - A Lip Support Topic in Smashboards which is administrated by me.
The Official Lip For Smash 4 Support Topic! - one of the most longrunning character support topics in Gamefaqs which is administrated by Cell Junior.
While I do prefer Takamaru, Lip is another good choice since she would represent the puzzle genre far better then Dr. Mario did in Melee. Now all we need is Sukapon and we have covered all genres.
