Blizzard would love to see Diablo represented in Smash Bros. Ultimate, want Bowser and Ganon in Blizzard games

The Smash Bros. series is all about bringing together gaming's biggest and best franchises and cramming into a single experience. Castlevania is getting some representation this time around, but what other franchises could be on the way? If Blizzard had their way, Diablo would get the call up. Here's what Blizzard senior producer Pete Stilwell had to say in a Game Informer interview.

"Personally, yeah, I'd love to have Diablo. That to me is the immediate one. Then if we had over time, eventually the heroes, go through all of them...or you could go really awesome and only have Deckard Cain."

On the flip-side, Stilwell and associate producer Matt Cederquist had some ideas on what Nintendo characters they'd like to bring over to their own games.

MC: "Bowser, Bowser would be a sweet dungeon boss."

PS: "Pig Ganon would be cool. I feel like we're mostly naming villains, but there's a lot of classic Nintendo villains. Pretty much any of them would be great."
