Um, given that the game is being built for a platform WITHOUT the C-Stick (namely, the 3DS), what makes you think that's how they would activate?
I know that, but that's one of the reasons the 3ds falters, gameplay wise.
It isn't viable because if the C-stick is used to do aerial smash attacks, it can't be used to do regular air attacks. Smash attacks are generally slower and much less viable.
Don't know if this was already talked about before, but I was watching Little Mac's trailer reveal and I found an interesting tibit in the video. When Little Mac is revealed, who is the first character that appears next to him? Samus. And what does she do? She measures his size comparing to her. Now, why of all people, was Samus chosen for that moment? Enforcing the whole "size doesn't matter" debate, perhaps? They could have done it with other characters, but with just Samus? Coincidence? That should make you think. Thoughts?
That's a reference to something similair they did in brawl's dev time.
That is, exactly, what I meant. I need to sleep.
Why would Sakurai and his team not consider the main antagonist of the Metroid serie and one of the most requested character not important enough while they listen to their fanbase and admited that they had visited this site during Brawl development, which means that they probably made another visit during SSB4 one's?
I think it's ambiguous only because, as far as I know, no one went and looked at the original Japanese miiverse post. I feel the 'these attacks can be activated in midair' bit seems like it might be.. not necessarily a mistranslation, but a little vague than what we'd like.
Also, if c-stick was required to do air smash attack, how would you do them on the 3DS version?
Its a joke that started in Brawl when he was revealed as an AT, he was compared to Samus revealing he was quite small. So it was referenced for his reveal in SSB4.
Being aware of a situation and acting on what you see are two completely different things.

I have my doubts about Robin having aerial smash attacks. If he did, I get the feeling that they would have worded that as 'Robin can even use smash attacks while in midair!', or something along those lines.
Actually, @Smash_Handle69 took a look at the Japanese version. The Google Translate came out:
He's worried about how the character will be viable on the Wii U if the player can't use C-Sticks for normal aerials.
5 New characters? What do you mean by new? Where did this come from?
It doesn't, because C-Stick isn't really needed to play Smash Bros.
And the "Smash" part is completely unambiguous in the Japanese version. The romanji form of the post reads:Actually, @
One piece today. Mage manual and Thunder Sword, the lifeblood of Reflet. I can use in Smash input Thunder Sword. Smash aerial input is OK what. And there is a number of uses as the original, it is broken and use too much, it takes a little time to replenish. If there is no Thunder Sword, I will fight with the sword of bronze.

The two sentences "Sandāsōdo wa sumasshu nyūryoku de tsukaemasu. Nanto kūchū sumasshu nyūryoku mo OK." Google translate to "I can use in Smash input Thunder Sword. Smash aerial input is OK what." The "smasshu" portions directly translate to "smash" in english, because they are loan words from english. Therefore, we can say with near certainty that the Japanese post does say that Robin can use Aerial Smashes.
They already put highly requested characters like Megaman, Little Mac and Palutena.
In a Galaxy Far, Far Away...
Trying to mask what? What is it that I'm "really trying to say"? I believe it was simple enough to tell what I was implying. "What I'm really trying to say" is that any developer that "can't make something work" because it's "too big" like that isn't a director worth their salt. Do they do a good job of other characters? Yes. Does that mean I would pass up on the opportunity to instead have a director that could do what Sakurai has done and more, potentially even one with a more open mind? No. Ridley isn't the entire game to me, but I'll be damned if I wouldn't question Sakurai if Sakurai thought he was too big for him and his dev team to get in.
Translated with Google Translate, it reads:
If anyone can help out with translating the Japanese shadow tease, that'd be great. If you can help translate any of the other versions of the shadow tease that are in different languages, that'd be helpful too. We need as much info on this space dragon as possible.
I'm obviously not referring to the 3DS version.
Yes it does falter in that sense. Of course it's not needed,
and aren't needed either. My point is, it WILL be less viable. 
IIRC, it's basically "Other Boss Gimmicks will also appear" or something along those lines.
Waiting a year for a character from a popular, recent game> waiting 6-8 years, when said characters popularity has probably died off. There is more than enough characters for the next smash bros.
I figured as such.
Translated:
Maybe it seems that way because you're so used to c-sticking.
I started using the C stick for aerials fairly recently, it's more viable in every way possible. You can play however you want. Either way, if Aerial Smash attacks are activated using the C-stick, characters that don't have them will have an advantage. That's the point I'm trying to make here.
Makes sense, but Robin will make up for it by having more aerial options.
I meant that the c-stick can't be required to use aerial smash, since there isn't a cstick for the 3DS version. That was my point. It wouldn't be viable.
Hey, what if they just give you the ability to change your control scheme, like they did in Brawl? Wouldn't that solve this issue? Like, completely?
In other words, yes, you would want him replaced because of not including Ridley.
Yes, indeed. I mentioned that on an earlier post. Hopefully they give you the option of using (or not using) the C stick for aerial smashes in the controller menu.
Okay, yeah. I didn't read any of those posts, lol. I was too busy focusing on the translations.
Wait, Five?
........... and left for Melee, and are already in and 
is an Alt. Costume. AND join as seperate Characters, there's still one more Character left. - (Alt. Costume, not new character) = 4/5.
