1. Tingle ASSIST
2. Snake ?
3. Ridley ?

4. Waluigi ASSIST
5. Pious Augustus UNLIKELY TO BE REFERENCED IN ANY WAY(Knew I was dreaming here but he's so metal.)
6. Little Mac CONFIRMED!

So one confirmed, two return as assist trophies, one will probably go completely unacknowledged because Nintendo forgot his game exists, one is most likely cut (here's hoping for DLC), and one is the chosen one and his fate still hangs in the balance. Takamaru probably would have been 7.

I'm still getting the game because duh of course I am, and all of the newcomers look really fun, but so far, Little Mac is the only character I actually wanted, despite the prevalence of very cool move sets. I can definitely dig Palutena, Mega Man, and Pac-Man though, but everybody else I have no real attachment to.

1. Isaac
2. Shulk
3. Animal Crossing Rep
4. Mewtwo
5. Chibi Robo
6. Robin

Currently 3/6 then. (Edit 4/6!)

Even though I prefer Robin slightly to Villager, in terms of my wants they were never too particular in regards to Animal Crossing. (I probably would have chosen Tom Nook but really I just wanted a rep from that series)
Definitely looking healthier at 4/6 now. :)

Isaac is still really important to me though.

1. Torterra (I can dream)
2. Ridley At least he's an awesome boss
3. Shulk :chuckle:
4. King K. Rool :c
5. Bowser Jr. :ohwell: I feel selfish for wanting this, but I wish that his clown car hadn't been the playable one.
6. Girahim :c
So two, that's ok especially considering Torterra was impossible. I guess Dillon and Impa will fill the last slots now. I still want a Bowser Jr. transformation after the Clown Car explodes.

So, it seems like no one did get his/her 6 most wanted characters for the moment. On the other hand, many of you didn't get even 1 character...
I guess I am one of the lucky few who got a lot of characters I actually wanted.

:4duckhunt::4littlemac::4pacman::4megaman::4mii::4villager::4palutena:

That's practically half of the newcomers!! Sure helps to be not be picky and narrow to only one, two, or three *looks at Mewtwo, King K. Rool, and Ridley*

Other characters I wanted but didn't get are Toad, Dixie Kong, Simon Belmont, Wandering Heroes, Mallo, Impa, Tingle, Takamaru, Captain N, etc.

In no particular order, Mega Man, Ridley, K. Rool, Little Mac, Shulk, and either Saki or Isa from Sin & Punishment. So 3/6, though if it was my top ten, my percentage would be much lower.

If we include veterans, it's Mega Man, Ridley, K. Rool, Mewtwo, Snake, and Little Mac, so 3/6 with DLC taken into account, or 2/6 with the base game. Kind of disappointing - I figured I had realistic expectations.

I realized some of these were long shots, but it's still a pretty good roster.

Yeah?

?
1. Saki (AT again).
2. Isaac (Missing In Action but hopefully DLC).
3. Shadow (AT again).
4. Lyn (AT again).
5. Palutena, Confirmed!
6. Krystal (hopefully DLC).

So only 1 out of 6 unfortunately. All 6 characters would make the roster more interesting and would complete SSB4 in my book.

I got Pac Man (wanted since I knew it was Namco working on the game), Little Mac, Mii's as custom fighters, and Mega Man. No Vaati and no Fawful.

That said:
I really like the Koopa-lings, and they were a want, I just didn't think them possible. But I do love how they turned out.
Same for Duck Hunt.

I wanted another Kid Icarus Rep after playing Uprising. I just wanted any of the candidates other than what we got. Specifically: Medusa, Magnus, Pyrhon, Phosphora, and Auron. But ah well. Now I just want a Kid Icarus Uprising 2 with more playable characters and character selection.

Four out of six. Not bad at all, especially considering that my number six wasn't going to happen no matter what.

I don't know either
1. Grovyle (Not to be confused with Sceptile, I mean Grovyle from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2: Explorers of Sky, he would be able to use the Time Gears).
2. Claus
3. Saki
4. Magolor
5. Klonoa
6. Isaac

In brief none.

I also lost my 3 favorite Smash characters of all time (Wolf, Snake and Lucas).

Sakurai sure likes me.

I didn't really get that into speculating until after E3 2013, so Mega Man can't be on this list, even though I did really want him.

- Ridley
- K. Rool

- Bowser Jr.
- Little Mac

- Pig Ganon (or another Zelda newcomer not named Impa)
- Pac-Man

My most wanted were:
Robin
Wonder Red
Paper MArio
Goku (yuyuki)
Ghirahim
Bomberman

Only one made the cut and I am over Ghirahim now anyways. Nearly every newcomer character I expected to be in made the roster though so I guess things balanced out. I really hope that Paper Mario and Wonder Red make it as DLC. I doubt if Goku and Bomberman stand a chance.

2.Lloyd Irving(screw you pacman D:< )
3. Zero(MegaManX series)
4. Roy(Fire emblem. **** that koopa)
5 . Mewtwo
6. Little Mac
3 out of the 6. Not bad.......
But I'm still salty about PacMan getting in instead of Lloyd >_>
Roy still has a chance through DLC
Zero would've been awesome but I can live without him I guess.

My #1 character was Captain Falcon, but I was never really worried about his chances of being in the game, so I wouldn't really consider him part of a "roster wishlist" considering that the N64 crew is a permanent part of the roster.
My top 6 newcomers were probably something along the lines of:
1. Mega Man
2. Zael
3. Shulk
4. Phoenix Wright or Layton
5. Mewtwo (technically not a newcomer)
6. Little Mac

Four out of six, and Zael (along with Rayman and Commander Video) got his own trophy, which is a lot more than I expected. I'm really feeling it pretty happy with the roster.
Also, Mega Man's character design is flawless.
As a Metroid fan, I really appreciate that Ridley is an epic boss instead of a character, because making him playable would remove all meaning from Ridley's appearances in the games. He's one of the best bosses in Nintendo history, and Smash 4 and Brawl did an excellent job of representing this. (would have preferred his Prime, Zero Mission or Super designs, but not going to complain about it.) Elec Man, Ghirahim, Skull Kid, Magnus and Riki make great assist trophies. (and my personal favorite pokemon, Keldeo, is now in Smash)
I really like the idea of a Toon Ganon that's more in line with Wind Waker Ganondorf (dual wielding swords ftw), and implements ideas from Zelda 1 and LTTP, kinda like Toon Link has palette swaps based on Zelda 1, BS Zelda and LTTP. That way we could have an accurate Ganondorf (a canon Ganon? Lame pun) while still leaving Falcondorf intact for the people like myself who like Smash Ganon's playstyle.
the only character on the roster whose presence I think is really questionable is Dark Pit, but I can appreciate the added clone characters (honestly, every smash game needs a few), especially since:
1. Electroshock Arm was one of my favorite weapons in KIU
2. Dark Pit has the best theme music (and they included two of the versions)

Of characters I legitimately wanted, about half:

1. Megaman
2. Little Mac
3. Palutena

Those that didn't make it:

4. Waluigi
5. Ashley
6. Takamaru

Three of my top six compared to three of my top ten so not bad overall I guess.
