Smash Champion
There is no reason for young link or pichu to return, especially given pikachus hat changes (the brawl pikachu and i assume the smash 4 pikachu wear the same "hats" as pichu in melee implying he evolved) so I don't think 59 is very likely at all.
That said I'm banking on 47-48 characters Squirtle Ivysaur Lucas Snake cut, the gematsu/sal leak plus the rest of the brawl vets and possibly one more character, the most likely being mewtwo (for many reasons) mostly because he would not "count" as a newcomer much like how the Gematsu/Sal leak didn't mention Charizard. But the 48th spot could be many things including: Lucas NOT being cut, simply the random button spot (so 47 characters), or some other newcomer (like how rosalina was not mentioned by Sal...tho that was most likly because she was revealed inbetween leaks imo).
I also strongly believe the RosalinaX leak at this point that said 48 characters 4 cuts... I believe it mostly because when RosalinaX was pushed for more info we got a response saying Lucas might be cut...which now fits with Sal/Gematsu... of course 48/4cuts could have meant 48 SPOTS one of which being the random button so 47 characters... either way even RosalinaX said it was subject to change.
However given that Gematsu/Sal is almost certainly 100% true at this point that means DLC characters are also true...so a final roster after DLC of say 50-51 characters is what I'm guessing.
Those DLC characters are more likely to be:
1.any cut characters (Squirtle/Ivysaur/Lucas/ POSSIBLY Snake).
2.old Cut Melee vets (Mewtwo/Roy POSSIBLY others but with high possibility of dr mario alt for mario and the uselessness of adding back pichu/young link i doubt it).
3.POSSIBLY someone else, Isaac for example (if he remains to be cut from the assist trophies, I have seriosu doubts that nayone who is already present in the game in some way will become playable as DLC... maybe ridley could pull an Alfonso with meta ridley MAYBE...and thats if he isn't that 48th spot already) or possibly dixie/k rool lucina ect..
Can someone please post a link or something to where a nintendo rep said the roster was "massive"? If thats the case I may change my stance on the roster size though I really want to see who said it and in what context... basically was it PR just trying to sell the game or someone from treehouse who play tested and is really telling us what they saw of the final roster and it's BIG.
