Shovel Knight fighting game WHEN?

there's a versus mode on the 3ds or wii u version I believe. To my knowledge that will eventually make its way to the pc version maybe?? Until then I fully await any introductions of shovel knight and characters from the game shovel knight to exist within fighting games.
 
Never. Since Shovel knight is not a fighting game and it has other stuff to focus on.

NICE!
 
If I had to pick eight characters to be in a Shovel Knight Fighting game, I'd pick:

Shovel Kinght.
Black Knight.
Shield Knight. (with a Enchantress "devil trigger")
Plague Knight.
Polar Knight.
Specter Knight.
Mole Knight.
And either Tinker Knight or Propeller Knight.
 
I don't think Shovel Knight needs fighting game.

I think it needs a side scrolling beat 'em up like other medieval classics like the capcom D&D games, Golden Axe and Dragon's Crown.

Also one significant problem I can think of with a shovel knight fighting game is that none of the characters have actual voices and black knight has a laugh. I think this isn't a huge obstacle but it only leaves weird options like creating voices, using textboxes for intros/winquotes, or having silent characters which would be really weird and probably not good. And because (right now) there are only two characters that I would consider having a "full" moveset.

I mean

Smash???
 
If its gonna be Shovel Knight, why not just an indie fighter? A smash clone could work, but I could also see a more classic fighter for a straight up Shovel Knight fighter.

Shovel Knight could have an air dash, use his shovel and the dust gauntlets for normals, have his pogo jump similar to Chun-li's stomps air stomps, fireball and alchemy coin as a.projectile special on the same button, he has options for a competent move list. Maybe use the anchor instead of as a projectile but as an aa type normal or dp?

The other knights would need new stuff to make them work, cept maybe the knights who are getting playable modes
 
There don't need to be any more traditional fighting games ever again. Skullgirls is the omega.

More Power Stone style games would be nice though.
 
Pick up weapons like the phase locket while beating each other with special attacks? Sounds legit. Could probably work of you could figure out how to transfer some of their moves to a 3d space.
