Shantae's history- Shantae was created and produced in 2002 for Gameboy color, the story tells about Shantae a half genie who protects sequin land from terror ranging to pirate attacks to certain destruction. Shantae is magical half genie who summons fire, belly dances to transform into magical creatures, and uses her magical ponytail to whip enimies. Shantae has been in so far 3 games, Shantae(GBC 2002), Shantae Risky's Revenge (DSi 2010), and Shantae and the Pirates Curse (3DS/WiiU 2014) and upcoming Shantae Half Genie Hero. Shantae would be the perfect candidate for smash bros because, she would possibly be one of the first genie character/wayforward character to appear in smash bros, she's a true excellent female fighter, and she would be an excellent choice. You can still download her games at the Nintendo eshop if you want to play her games, vote for Shantae guys!! :D
