I was just thinking..It would be cool to see more bonus characters that involve enemies from 2d side-scrollers.For example, if there was a bonus character much like the Strength Training one by Pots, except it would include strictly 2d side-scrolling game enemies. Such as Skeletons, bats, and axe-armors for a Castlevania themed one, or Metools, robotic-bats, etc, for a Mega Man X themed one. The reason I suggest this as opposed to just a sprite edit of the Strength Training is because it would be more fun to see enemies that can shoot, fly, or do something besides just punch. The concept would basically be the same though.It just came to mind, since there are so many chibi 2d side-scrolling characters for Mugen, I thought it would be fun.

I could see a Metool bonus thing working, where Metools with random abilities (flying, axe-hackers, dancers, jumpers, swimmers....) appeared on the screen.
a real danger room for a bonus stage would be cool...random scenario that would last like...30 to 99 seconde or more...

The Metool idea sounds insane but awesome haha. Characters with sprites from fighting games or beat em' ups are cool, but I feel like they're a bit overdone. I think the 8-bit Mario and Contra bonus stages that have been made (forgot the creator) are pretty awesome, although they are like a huge step above what I'm talking about, but still..anything in that direction is really cool and innovative!
