As of now, how is your character wishlist looking?

[Ascended]

Before Smash 4 was even announced, these were the characters that I wanted to be playable:
Ridley
Krystal (Although I don't think she's going to be playable anymore.)
Victini (Pokeball Pokemon)
Mewtwo
Chrom (If Gematsu is real, then looks like he'll be playable.)
Lyndis (Once again an Assist.)
Palutena (Revealed at E3)
Sonic (Confirmed in October 2013)
Little Mac (Confirmed in February 2014)
Mega Man (Confirmed at E3 2013)
Pac-Man (Confirmed at E3 2014)
Shulk (Again, if Gematsu is real, then he's in.)
Isaac
Dillon (Assist)
Wonder Red (Trophy)
Cloud Strife (But it'll never happen. -_-)

So far, I've got five characters confirmed playable on my wishlist, two are Pokeballs, two are assists, and one is just a trophy, so I'm feeling pretty good about that. How about the rest of you guys?

 

[Hippopotasauce]

Let's see.
1. Rhythm Heaven character

Right about exactly the same.

 

[Waluridleykryrool]

Green=Confirmed playable
Yellow= Still possible
Red= Deconfirmed
Blue= not deconfirmed but unlikely

1. Ridley (who the **** knows)
2. Waluigi (assist...again)
3. Krystal (survived E3 and we learned that a new star fox is in development so still in the running)
4. Genesect (confirmed as pokeball at E3 if i recall correctly)
5. King K Rool (chunky kong assist and kremlings in smash run are making prospects look good)
6. Dixie Kong (Sakurai said greninja was chosen while he was still in development so the same could be for dixie and tropical freeze)
7. Impa (wanted her to replace sheik while zelda got buffed and got a new down b, 2 out of three isn't to bad i guess, regardless i think she's out)
8. Zoroark (i wanted either him or genesect got neither as both turned out to be pokeballs, at least there in the game though)
9. Little Mac (one of my favorite characters so happy he got in)
10. Aggron (not deconfirmed but never even remotely likely to begin with, aggron is just one of my favorite pokemon)
11. Sceptile (should be obvious at this point that i like pokemon i really like the idea of a grass starter to complete the trio with charizard and Greninja and with the gen 3 remakes, and a new mega evolution he could very well get in)
12. Non swordsman fire emblem character ( still could happen)
13. Non capain falcon clone ganondorf (still possible)
14. Black shadow (want him almost entirely to take over ganondorfs current moveset, and with goroh confirmed to still be an assist trophy he's all f-zero has left)

 

[mini paincakes]

1. K. Rool: Still seems likely
2. Paper Mario: Still nothing that supports him getting in so things aren't looking good for him.
3. Ridley: We all have our opinions on this guy and I'm still confident in his inclusin
4. Mewtwo: Not a newcomer, just someone I really want back. He still seems likely
5. Vaati: Probably not going to happen
6. Isaac: See Vaati
7. Shulk: Looking very likely. Thanks Gematsu!
8. Mega Man: Confirmed
9. Takamaru: I can still see him getting in.
10. Bowser Jr: Probably the most likely Mario Newcomer after Rosalina, but probably not happening
11. Tingle: See Isaac
12. Little Mac: Confirmed
13. Pac Man- Cofirmed

14. Banjo & Kazooie: Will never happen ever.

 

[Starcutter]

1. K. Rool: Still seems likely
2. Paper Mario: Still nothing that supports him getting in so things aren't looking good for him.
3. Ridley: We all have our opinions on this guy and I'm still confident in his inclusin
4. Mewtwo: Not a newcomer, just someone I really want back. He still seems likely
5. Vaati: Probably not going to happen
6. Isaac: See Vaati
7. Shulk: Looking very likely. Thanks Gematsu!
8. Mega Man: Confirmed
9. Takamaru: I can still see him getting in.
10. Bowser Jr: Probably the most likely Mario Newcomer after Rosalina, but probably not happening
11. Tingle: See Isaac
12. Little Mac: Confirmed
13. Pac Man- Cofirmed

14. Banjo & Kazooie: Will never happen ever.

Tingle is an assist, sorry

 

[AdaptiveTrigger]

At this point, all I care about is Snake and Ness. I am quite happy with the newcomers otherwise. Not sure what Snake's chances are at this point though. There are solid arguments for both sides as to whether he is getting included or cut.

Don't really care about characters like Ridley or Mewtwo getting in but I'm not really opposed to their inclusions either.

 

[ErenJager]

LOL, my wish list back then was very optimistic, with not so likely characters, I'll leave them out.

CONFIRMED

Mega Man
Animal Crossing Rep
Sonic
Pac-Man
Marth
Pikachu
Samus
Link
Donkey Kong
Bowser

GREY AREA?

Mewtwo - Has popularity, possible hint in Greninja trailer, Sakurai "we're thinking about it" for mega form
Falco - Vet from Brawl, since melee, clones/ semi clones might be trouble?
Game & Watch - Teased in Pac-Man's trailer, also a melee/ brawl vet.
Captain Falcon - Vet in every game.
Ness - vet in every game.
Ridley - Popularity, shadow in direct.
Shulk - Has an apparent leak, Xenoblade game shown at E3
King K. Rool - Kritter in smash run, popularity.


DECONFIRMED/ NOT LIKELY

Black Shadow
Roy
Klonoa
Tails
Geno
Crash Bandicoot
Banjo & Kazooie
Spyro

 

[Crendog]

Honestly, I didn't expect any of these newcomers and have been satisfied with all of them, but I would love for King K Rool to make the roster

 

[JaidynReiman]

1.) Non-clone Ganondorf (still possible)
2.) King K. Rool
3.) Isaac
4.) Dixie Kong
5.) Lyn (disconfirmed)
6.) Impa (unlikely)
7.) Ridley (I don't care much for Metroid or Ridley, but I think he'd be totally badass)


That's about all I can think of right now.

 

[War Anvil]

Cool, cool. I'm ready to rumble.

KEY
In!
Admit it, he/she/it has a good chance.
Not out, but not likely at all.
Chances are slim pickings, pardner.
Ha ha ha--NO!

MY HONEST PICKS
Captain Falcon (Original tweeeeeelve~~~!)
Falco (WOMBO COMBO! Seriously though, there's a new Star Fox out there, so there you go.)
Jigglypuff (See the good captain. More importantly, half Fairy nowadays! I'm sure that counts for something.)
Little Mac (ＢＵＩＬＤ　ＵＰ　ＴＨＥ　ＰＯＷＥＲ　ＭＥＴＥＲ)
Lucas (Mother 3's fine, too.)
Mewtwo (Anything. Could. Happen.)
Misty (A certain ninja-phibian, child.)
Pac-Man (I was expecting a hybrid of PMatGA and PM2:TNA, but classic/World plus Namco sprites is cool too.)
Palutena (Good on ya, E3. Good on ya.)
R.O.B. (C'mon, he's cute for a 'bot! That, and his moveset has some things going...)
Sceptile (Iunno. ORAS much?)
Shantae (We already have MM, Sonic, and Pac. Just an indie rep, I'm guessing?)
Snake (Surprise decrease in chances due to Pac.)
Sonic (yes good)

 

[~Krystal~]

1. Snake - Really needed a Wii U game to solidify his chances of returning. Could be a long shot at this juncture.
2. Krystal - Has been appearing in more recent installations, yet something tells me she's not quite on the level yet.
3. Megaman - Confirmed.
4. Sonic - Confirmed.
5. Banjo-Kazooie - Unlikely!
6. Marina Liteyears - Definitely not happening, but would of made an excellent surprise pick imo.

 

[GamerGuy09]

1. Bandana Dee - Still pretty neutral to good. Bandana Dee's recent multiple appearances in the new Kirby Rainbow Curse game might mean that they are expanding his roll so he is more recognizable for Smash. Maybe around 55% likely to get in.

2. Robin (Tactician) - Looking pretty bad because of the Sal leak coming undoubtably true. Maybe around 30%.

3. Ridley - The fact that Pyrosphere hasn't been shown yet is really messing with all of us. I'm thinking around 70% since he is the most requested character by far.

4. MegaMan - Confirmed

5. Mii - Confirmed

6. Pac-Man - Confirmed

7. Chorus Men - Likely because of the Sal leak.

It sucks that my top 3 have not been announced yet, but nothing has deconfirmed them to my knowledge.

 

[8-peacock-8]

Most of my wish list of possible characters is almost done.

Just need Shulk, Ridley, King K Rool, and Takamaru.

 

[Welshy91]

Like ****.

 

[VictoryIsMudkipz]

Umm as far as characters I REALLY want, the only few left are Mewtwo , Roy, and Bowser Jr. but taking all things considered, most of what my wishlist either came true or somewhat did including Pac-Man joining, as well Megaman, and on the other side Dillon, Knuckle Joe, and Waluigi being AT's,

we have 33 confirmed characters, 10 Veterans that are shoe-ins for sure, and then the three characters that remain from the getmasu leak (Shulk, Chorus Men/Kids, Chrom)

which tops us at 46 characters, which leaves the possibility of maybe 1 to 5 more characters which could possibly range from King K Rool, Ridley, Keeping Lucas, Keeping both StarFox characters (Falco & Wolf), Dark Pit's now a possibility, Issac, Bandana Dee, & Bowser Jr...etc

 

[Xenigma]

*Looks at sig*

Yep, that's not looking good at all.

 

[DaDavid]

Well looking at my old sig and thinking about what I actually consider likely from there, I say it looks pretty good. Lloyd is realistically never gonna happen, so really it's just Shulk that I'm expecting at this point.

 

[pupNapoleon]

Love this thread!
Honestly mine is looking pretty dead on; not as much from the characters I wanted as much as what I thought the roster should have.
Still is missing the heavyweight-popular ones though, which think are locked in the game.

 

[Starbound]

I got my two most wanted characters ( and ).

Other characters near the top of my wishlist are Athena Cykes (Phoenix Wright) and Lucina (Fire Emblem). I'm starting to actually hope I stop getting characters I want because it's making deciding who to main harder.

#firstworldproblems

 

[MasterOfKnees]

I only had three going into this:

1. Ridley
2. Mega Man
3. King K. Rool

Only one of them is announced so far, and with the Gematsu leak's sick streak it doesn't look like I'll get much further. Kind of a shame, especially with Ridley as he's the only reason I even bothered coming back, he's my favorite video game character so it'd mean the world to me having him playable.

 

[Glaciacott]

Success:
- Mega Man
- Little Mac
- Palutena
- Pokemon Newcomer (Greninja)
- Pac Man

Grey area:
- Ridley
- K. Rool
- Rhythm Heaven character
- Robin
- Takamaru

Probably not:
- Porky
- Tetra

Failure:
- Ashley (wario ware)

I think so far everything's going pretty well.

 

[Headcrab Jackalope]

*glances at signature*

Basically every character in my sig has almost no chance of getting in and it pisses me off that my brain decides that the most unlikely characters are my favorite characters. And of course, Tingle, Genesect, and Kamek are disconfirmed.

Really the only ones with a chance in my sig are Ridley, K. Rool, and Bandana Dee, but the Gematsu leak screws them over.

AND MARK MY WORDS, PLASM WRAITH WILL BE EVERYONE'S MOST WANTED WHEN SMASH 5 IS ANNOUNCED

 

[Kenith]

1. Ghirahim
2. Mega Man
3. Rosalina
4. Lucario
5. Sonic
6. Lucina
7. Ridley
8. Midna
9. Mewtwo
10. Captain Falcon

This is the core wishlist of mine.

I would say that I have done pretty good so far. The biggest one for me on that list is still not present, but I remain ever so hopeful. He'll probably be in Hyrule Warriors if not Smash Bros, so I guess that makes it better.

Only one of them is disconfirmed, though, so that is also a good sign. It's funny; I truly did not expect any of my wanted newcomers (and still do not for the unconfirmed ones) to make the cut, but two of them did. Perhaps I have extreme luck in my tastes? Either way, I expect most of them to get in.

 

[Altais]

 

[Hong]

I've wanted the AC main character since forever.

Functions even better than the ideas I came up with back in the Brawl days.

As of the first Smash 4 trailer, I've had what I have always wanted all along. I love Smash Bros, I love Animal Crossing, and the short time I had with Villager was more fun than anything I have experienced with Brawl.

 

[Delicious Tears]

My wishlist is way too super mega ultra awesome to become true, especially with Street Fighter Cartoon M. Bison.

 

[fogbadge]

well alot of the characters on mine were rather unlikely anyway, but i got the villager and the miis so in long run i cant complain

 

[Boofer]

Oddly, I wasn't wishing for very many particulars.
1. Isaac
2. Mewtwo
3. Knuckles (which won't happen)
4. Any (cool) Pokémon

Isaac probably won't happen, and if he does it may be DLC or something if that rumor is true. I have a little bit of hope left for him. Mewtwo, I see as a more reasonable choice. If he's not back I'm confident he'll be, at least, DLC. Knuckles won't happen, and we already got a cool Pokémon. Pokémon make good smash characters, and despite not really following the franchise since generation 2, I still find them intriguing, and I'd buy an all Pokémon smash in a heartbeat, if it was in the works.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

Same as ever.

1. Isaac - Nope
2. Shulk - Nada
3. Mewtwo - Negative
4. Chibi Robo - Bupkis
5. Robin - Nah

I didn't choose the ignored life, the ignored life chose me.

Those are the five I've mainly wanted throughout the pre release hype. I'm very happy to get an Animal Crossing rep though.

 

[Phaazoid]

Of the ones who I thought had at least a small chance, in order of how much I want them

Ridley
Ray01
Isaac
Mewtwo
Mach Rider

things aren't looking up

of course I would've loved

Bomberman
Ephraim/Hector/Black Knight
Chaos
Bass

But I didn't expect none of those

At least Pac-Man got his non-****ty design. I can appreciate that. And shulk has a pretty cool sword, if sal turns out true.

 

[Koopaul]

My list is in my sig.
Two Deconfirmed.
Two Confirmed.

 

[Backgammon]

1.

...so it's looking pretty good, honestly.

Legit though, I was given my dream character and I didn't even know I wanted her. I've been a huge fan of Rosalina since Mario Galaxy and seeing her in Smash just made my day / week / life.

All I need now is for Wario to be 100% confirmed (he might be pretty much confirmed, but I want solid confirmation) and I am very happy with the roster.

I know my dreams of getting Young Link back instead of Toon Link are shattered forever, which is why I hold no real hope for him.

 

[Leafeon523]

Here's most of the characters that I have wanted to see in smash 4 (that had a decent possibility of getting in)
Mega Man- Confirmed!!!
Saki: Deconfirmed
Ray 01- Not looking too good
Isaac- Things are looking very neutral for him at this point.
Anna- Never going to happen
Ghirahim or Vaati- Not looking good for them either
Takamaru- Looking decent for him.
Chrom: Gemastued!
Promoted assist trophy: Confirmed!
KIU character not named Palutena: Dark Pit perhaps?


In terms of veterans:
Ike: Confirmed!
Falcondwarf: Hopefully he will remain unchanged.
Game and Watch: Confirmed!
Mewtwo:Still hopeful.
Jigglypuff: Looking extremely likely at this point.

 

[Bassoonist]

Well, I haven't actually had any characters I wanted deconfirmed, but at the same time, I don't see much hope for most of them.

In the end, it looks like Villager and Chrom will be the only additions I wanted. =(

 

[BandanaDee]

*glances at signature*

Basically every character in my sig has almost no chance of getting in and it pisses me off that my brain decides that the most unlikely characters are my favorite characters. And of course, Tingle, Genesect, and Kamek are disconfirmed.

Really the only ones with a chance in my sig are Ridley, K. Rool, and Bandana Dee, but the Gematsu leak screws them over.

AND MARK MY WORDS, PLASM WRAITH WILL BE EVERYONE'S MOST WANTED WHEN SMASH 5 IS ANNOUNCED

ohey somebody else who wants louie, high five

 

[Diddy Kong]

1. Impa (wanted her to replace sheik while zelda got buffed and got a new down b, 2 out of three isn't to bad i guess, regardless

You can change her to yellow if you'd like man. Because Impa being in Hyrule Warriors might've been something Sakurai also knew all along. Tingle is out, Toon Zelda is pretty much out now Zelda has the Phantom (as well as it being extremely redundant to have 3 separate Zelda entities playable), and other major Zelda characters as Midna and Skull Kid are ATs. The only competition left for Impa are the probably Ganondorf's Final Smash-bounded Ganon, and Vaati, who his fans say should get in because Minish Cap got a rerelease on 3DS.

Also, just look at what sort of style she'd bring in :

Definitely different from all ninja and sword characters we have so far. And definitely a hype-worthy addition. I could still see her happen, even if it's post game release DLC due to Hyrule Warrior's succes.

As of my own list who I wanted playable:

King K.Rool
Mewtwo
Isaac (Golden Sun)
Dixie Kong
Toad
Mach Rider
Takamaru
Paper Mario
Blastoise (I knew he had a very small chance, but I just liked the idea of split up Kanto Starters and making them fully evolved)
Anthony Higgs

 

[3Bismyname]

Pac-Man, Megaman and Little Mac were the ones i wanted that are confirmed. Zoroark, Dixie and Isaac are the only characters i wanted that arent announced yet. Dixie is still fairly likely, Zoroark im sure is out, and Isaac, though not ruled out, isnt that likely.

 

[Ridles the Space Pirate]

I didn't have much coming into this, but so far, only 1 disconfirmation.

Mega Man
Ridley
King K. Rool
Little Mac
Ray
Dillon
Genesect
Sonic
Snake

 

[Reader]

1. Vaati: Small chance
2. Palutena: Confirmed
3. Medusa: Not Impossible
4. Pacman: Confirmed
5. Mewtwo: Highly likely
6. As little cuts as possible (At the moment Snake, Ivysaur and Squirtle might not return. I hope that others do. There's always the possibility of DLC...)

 

[foolssigma]

Cool thread. Here's mine in order:

1. Banjo & Kazooie (impossible sadness)
2. Shulk (looking likely)
3. Palutena (confirmed)
4. Ridley ( Future unknown )
5. Robin (Seems like Chrom will unfortunately take the spot)
6. Isaac (I don't think its happening )
7. K Rool (Can still be in)
