Tales series producer Makoto Yoshizumi has revealed that he would like nothing more than to feature Tales characters in the next Smash Bros game for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. Interestingly Yoshizumi said that they would only be allowed to feature Tales characters that have appeared on Nintendo formats.

“Maybe if we beg Sakurai-san, it will happen! I know Higuchi-san would love it, but the decision is Sakurai-san’s. I think it’s still too early to talk about it.”

“We need to keep in mind that a character can only appear in a Smash Bros game if he already appeared on a Nintendo console.”
