Here is the Smashboards List for Most TALKED About Characters, Which Means Replies:
  1. Ridley = 31,397
  2. King K. Rool = 9,244
  3. Palutena = 4,246
  4. Bandana Dee = 3,309
  5. Pac-Man = 3,283
  6. Isaac = 2,911
  7. Shulk = 2,809
  8. Krystal = 2,427
  9. Robin (Tactician) = 2,371
  10. Chrom = 2,368
I'm surprised to see Isaac so high.

So how about that blue haired guy, eh? I wonder what the hair colour distribution of Smash 4 would be.

So who's final smashes haven't we seen that's gonna be playable at e3?

Hopefully since they are buffing bowser a bit they'll make his fs better too.

We really haven't seen a ton of Final Smashes.
I'm thinking that the following from that list will retain their final smashes from Brawl

Bowser
Marth
Pikachu
Link
Sonic
Olimar
Zelda
Fox

After the April direct, I created a thread in the Zero Suit Samus discussion sub forum about her Final Smash, but I haven't checked it's posts in a while. Mario should have something big from the games that were "too late to have merits in brawl." Donkey Kong obviously something from Returns or Tropical Freeze.

My idea of a worst case scenario roster would be ONLY what has been announced so far. A 31 character roster would absolutely stink.

Alright then, how about some worst-case scenario rosters?
Other than Jigglypuff and Snake being cut I actually love this roster, and I can sacrifice those two to have Ridley, K. Rool and Sceptile playable (or heck, even just Ridley alone.) Other than that I don't care about the other cut characters, and I can stomach Pac and Krystal fine with the other newcomers present, and it even hits a nice size too.

Perfectly fine with this. I still don't believe that Ridley is in this game however and still would like to see chrom or the avatar. I do hope we get some unexpected characters though. These rosters are getting repetitive and boring

Because everyone expected Greninja, Rosalina, Villager and WTF- I mean WFT. :p

I expected Rosalina but that's just me. I just want more unexpected characters than the few we have now
I guess that is reasonable. I would only expect them if we had a huge amount of newcomers though.

In other news, Sceptile has been confirmed to have a mega evolution with Swampert and Blaziken!

I'd say a Mega Evolution really doesn't effect Sceptile's chances either way.
Mega Evolution alone doesn't, but along with the upcoming remakes and Grass/Fire/Water pattern, it looks quite ominous.

EDIT: Okay I should stop being so negative, so I'll drop this
