When the point is to make the character stand out, especially from the other characters within the franchise, it's unwise to have them copy another character(s) for a technique.
The auto-dodge thing sounds more interesting, but it seems very ineffectual considering you can just dodge out of the way yourself and the auto-dodge could lead to problematic circumstances not worth avoiding the attack that triggered it.

Excuse my lack of culture regarding Star Fox, but was Krystal in another game than Adventures?

Well... there was Dinosaur Planet but its pretty much what Star Fox Adventures is, minus the Star Fox crew & the Lylat system.

You mean a different look than the one he already has?

I would say possibly but it mostly depends on who is developing the game & what direction Nintendo will take the game in.
Do they want it to be a bit more grim and/or dark? Might expect Fox to look similar to his Assault counterpart
Do they want it to be more cartoony and/or campy? Might expect Fox to look similar to his Command/64 counterpart

I see you on that one. However, it's virtually impossible to have a character not share any moves from another. Eventually something is going to be similar to another character's moves. In that regard, having one move being similar isn't a crime. There's still plenty of room to make her other moves stand out. Also, the dodging may work if the opponent trying to attack is stunned for a moment, meaning they can't counter dodge. I'll let you think for yourself on how that could happen, my dearest Entei.

As far as I'm concerned only Link has more faces than Fox.
I think Luigi has the most faces. I mean,check out the difference between the Luigi from the Luigi's Mansion games. The faces are obviously different!

Honestly, and i know this is backtracking a bit, I would love to see a female swordsman as a character. I dont know much anything about FE, but i fully support any female with a unique sword-based moveset to the table that.
I'm kind of confused.
For curiosity,I attempted to Pre-Order the game from Best Buy (The pending box art seems a bit bland.) about ten minutes ago. I did everything that you would usually do,then,the confusing part. "Your gift will be expected to arrive on 12/31/14 - 1/07/15." I was pretty dazed. I double checked,made sure I got the 3DS version,which I did,then I suggested it may be because I'm on shipping. I switched to Pick Up At Store. Same dates.
I'm not used to pre-ordering,so what the **** is going on?
I must spread this info until I have an answer...
Actually,I think I'm done,I only have like,3 places that I can trust for answers.

I think the expected date defaults at the end of the year until there is an official release date.

If Kid Icarus: Uprising has taught me anything, is that auto dodging mechanics are a pain in the ass.
So naturally, I disapprove of that idea. If a character uses an extensive dodging mechanic, there should be a way to control it.

Let's see, what do we have for game play material. Pushing pulling and jumping. Yeah at best we're just getting a stage.

Pushmo is not getting in Smash, but this is not the reason why. Sakurai can bull**** a moveset for almost anybody.

Driving around in a car. Yeah, Captain Falcon has no potential and cannot be playable.

Well the dodge would only function if the player was actually getting hit. They couldn't continuously use it anywhere.

Yeah I guess I wasn't really thinking straight. But at the same time, franchises like Starfox and F-zero are actually really popular in comparison to pushmo. The games being released don't show but that point still stands. Also R.O.B. is robot, and everyone likes robots. Also speaking of cars...

I'm still hoping for Wario this week, anyone think he needs a change in any way as far as Smash goes?

There isn't really anything distinct that I would change, but considering we just got Ike, I don't really see us getting anyone until E3.

I'm also thinking friday, don't think they'd do Mario Kart's release without a reveal
NickerBocker

Im remaining hopeful that we get something for MK8 (even a stage would be nice.) Wario seems to be the logical choice.
There is the chance that they announce a veteran every friday until e3 (doubtful, but it could be interesting to see veterans like Cpt Falcon, Wario and/or Ness before the swarm of info that will inevitably arrive come E3.) Considering that we could possibly get something for MK8 (Wario) we could be randomly treated to another veteran between May 30th and E3. (Captain Falcon plox)

good taste/10Have a roster!
I made this roster with a mindset of reasonable optimism. Rate it on how satisfied you would be and tell me what changes you would make.
Explanations:
King K. Rool is kooler than Dixie kould ever be.
Even if Ganon isn't necessarily likely, I think most people would enjoy playing as him. I know I would.
Takamaru will always be my retro of choice. What's not to love about him?
Ridley is awesome.
Palutena is awesome.
Either Anna or Robin would be cool for Fire Emblem...I chose Anna becauseI wanted to show off the Anna icon I madeI had a better icon of Anna. Robin could easily take her spot.
Miis are attached to Villager for minimum rage!
Pac-Man will never be removed from my rosters.
I didn't put Snake on here for the same reason I didn't put Toad on here. I think it's unlikely that Snake is in this time. I could easily be wrong, though. Feel free to make this a negative point for satisfaction.
100% yes pls
But seriously, it's not common for me to see a roster where every newcomer is a character I would actually enjoy having.
I'm curious to know how much power Sakurai truly has in picking the roster. I mean, we just assume that he calls all the shots, but I'm not sure if it's really the case.
I say this because I followed the Marvel vs Capcom hype train, and all the news that went along with it. Apparently, Ryoto Niitsuma had to get permission from the producers and teams responsible for developing the games of the characters he wanted to include first. Seth Killian discusses the matter in this interview: http://www.siliconera.com/2011/03/1...-didnt-want-the-hunter-in-marvel-vs-capcom-3/
I'd be curious to see Sakurai talk about this kind of thing. I think people would be far less disappointed with the roster choices if they knew that certain characters were off the table from the get-go. Maybe it would make a good question for the E3 round table.

I wonder if Nintendo rolls the same way. This could explain some notable omissions. From what I understand, Game Freak and Intelligent Systems have a hand in picking the Pokemon and Fire Emblem reps for their respective series, but I don't know if that means they can override the director's choice. I suspect second party games like Golden Sun and Custom Robo, in which Nintendo actually doesn't have much role in their development beyond just publishing them are hard to get permission for, as well as jointly developed games like Sin & Punishment and Legendary Starfy. In Brawl, there were also lots of stickers and trophies for games in which Nintendo only published and most people don't really associate with Nintendo (ie. Chosoju Mecha MG, Ouendan). The shared IP rights may restrict what type of roles they can be put in, or they might not be seen as "Nintendo" enough for a playable spot.

Okay/10Have a roster!

Explanations:
King K. Rool is kooler than Dixie kould ever be. Wrong, but excusable.
Even if Ganon isn't necessarily likely, I think most people would enjoy playing as him. I know I would. Prefer every other LoZ choice, but not a BAD choice in itself
Takamaru will always be my retro of choice. What's not to love about him?
Ridley is awesome. Sure
Palutena is awesome. Yeh...
Either Anna or Robin would be cool for Fire Emblem...I chose Anna becauseI wanted to show off the Anna icon I madeI had a better icon of Anna. Robin could easily take her spot. I like it.
Miis are attached to Villager for minimum rage! Why?
Pac-Man will never be removed from my rosters. I don't like Pac-Man, but I also don't like the other third party choices really so, yeah.
I didn't put Snake on here for the same reason I didn't put Toad on here. I think it's unlikely that Snake is in this time. I could easily be wrong, though. Feel free to make this a negative point for satisfaction.
Most seem like reasonable picks outside the dumb Villager/Mii thing, Anna, and Gannonothappening. Personally I prefer different choices, but not bad I guess.

I'll go through my personal bias:
- I think Mario should have the most reps or tied for most.
- Mach Rider > Takamaru, I'd take almost any other retro rep
- Robin > Anna however, Anna is cool
- Vaati > Ganon
- Not sure why the Mii's share a slot with Villager. Does one of his costumes have the "Mii Mask?"

I'd be satisfied if you'd take out Pacman or Mii. But Anna over Chrom, that's fanta
Since for you Pacman isn't an option But Anna over Chrom, that's fantastic

No really, I do. I think it covers all the bases. I may not necessarily agree with all of it, but I think most would.
- While I don't find the Villager/Mii thing likely, it's still a much better alternative to including them into the game as their own character.
- Takamaru is probably the best retro choice. I still prefer Mach Rider...
- I think Anna taking her old look would make more sense than including the Trickster, but then that leaves us short an Awakening character...
- Ganon's okay, I guess...but Ganondorf would have to get a new FS, and I can't see that happening. Plus, if we must get a new Zelda villain here...
