This is what's bothering me as well. Kid Icarus, which had a successful revival gets tons of items, two newcomers, new stages for both versions, and more Smash Run enemies than everyone.
This. So damn disappointing that they cut a fairly unique character who had specials similar to Fox and Falco, but worked differently. Wolf is pretty damn awesome in Brawl. Mewtwo is one of the most iconic Pokemon in the series and should have returned. For the DK series, I wanted both K. Rool and Dixie to be included because they are characters who have tons of potential to be playable. Sucks that the DK series gets screwed hard this time. And as for Ganondorf, this is the third Smash game he is playable in. You would have thought that Sakurai would give a unique moveset this time, but nope, FALCONDORF. I bet he probably has that damn sword taunt again. It would have been sweet as hell to see Ganondorf have a moveset like in Hyrule Warriors, but sadly not.
Damn... I really hope you guys, matter of fact we as a whole (Everyone I've come across of has said they hope DK gets more reps) get Dixie in the next game, unless she becomes DLC which I doubt it at this point.
Apparently it's been confirmed that you can transfer stuff from the Wii U to the 3DS so that Neogaf rumor might be true. I'm really hope it's true.
Don't forget the Mother fans.
The next game is in six or so years... It's just too long of a wait, and who knows what health Nintendo will be in by then, if there even will be a Smash. Ugh... This was Dixie's best opportunity, especially after Tropical Freeze (although that could be a reason why she wasn't in, it was just too new... Darn shame).
'Tis the saddest thing. I can still see some hope for Dixie Kong, but it has dropped quite a bit. If her, Ridley, and Isaac couldn't make it this time around, I honestly don't know if they ever will. This was their time. Especially Isaac. I think that if he doesn't end up doing the crazy and showing up as DLC or something, he will NEVER be playable. And Ridley too, just because it's beyond ridiculous he's not playable this time around. It's like Sakurai has just shot him down for good.
And Captain Toad, too... I hope his own game is a success and Nintendo continues making Captain Toad more unique from Mario, Luigi, and Peach... and I also hope Retro keeps including Dixie as a playable character in future Donkey Kong Country games.
I'm obviously dating myself here but people were saying the same thing when Brawl came out. Nintendo's not going anywhere and they've got a goofy amount in savings, like, Scrooge McDuck levels of savings. If I remember right, they could survive a loss of 200 million a year for 25 years and still have money. Six years seems like a long time but really it isn't plus, based on past patterns, the next game will be announced sometime around 2018/19 so really it'll only be about four until the speculation machine starts to churn and start up again.
