Okay, so that last post I've made was a bit of a, exaggeration on my part. But, I want to correct that. I want to give my think Captain Marvel would be a perfect fit for Smash Bros. Video game character or not.
HistoryCarol Danvers was a decorated Air Force Major and pilot, having joined since a young age. Eventually, Carol moved to the intelligence field, serving the CIA for a period of time. One day, while working with NASA, Carol met Dr. Philip Lawson who was secretly the Kree agent, Mar-Vell, also known as the original Captain Marvel.
During a battle with one of Captain Marvel's enemies, a device known as the Kree Psyche-Magnetron exploded. While Captain Marvel managed to shield Carol from the radiation, she absorbed some of Captain Marvel's genetic template which became fused to her own DNA making her a Human-Kree hybrid. After waking from the explosion, Carol discovered that she had developed superpowers. Later, Carol took on the superhero persona of Ms. Marvel.
During her adventures, Carol had her powers and memories stolen by the mutant, Rogue. Eventually, X-Men headmaster, Professor X managed to restore Carol's memories but not her powers. Carol did became a longstanding partner of the X-Men becoming the team's number one pilot and intelligence operative. While with the team, Carol was captured by an alien brood that subjected her to a procedure that unlocked the full potential of her powers, which lead her to become Binary.
However, after the death of Mar-Vell, Carol currently took on the persona of Captain Marvel, as means to honor his memory.

Argument
I've seen articles online where the Vice President and creative director of Marvel Games said that anything can happen, and considering that Nintendo is currently publishing the third Ultimate Alliance game, so chances are, that might be a slight possibility.Counterargument
We all know that Captain Marvel is not a video game character so her being a playable character in Smash is way too far-fetched.
