That would actually be quite fitting since DK squared off against Little Mac officially.
Honestly, I'm not sure what to expect from E3 at the moment, other than the fiact that Nintendo needs to go big and not just with Smash. They need some hard hitters, and not just from their staple franchises like Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon. What they need to do is take a good hard look at all their 1st party stuff and revive more of the classics, now that they've brought them to attention with NES Remixes and such. They have no idea what to do with Star Fox and F-Zero? Fair enough they have a next generation there to work with, as bad as Command was, why not have a dual-story there, Star Fox and their next gen team working a threat from two different angles? F-Zero? Make it not just about racing, but take their core racers and make a platformer mission type with stories in and out of the drivers' seat. He's a bounty hunter right? Give him NEW bounties to hunt. Heck, you've hinted at them sharing the same universe as Star Fox, do a crossover both ways with them crossing paths on a bounty hunt that turns out to be a real threat to the universe, or the Star Fox crew having to join a race to get close to a target during a race. Really? No ideas? You have 30+ racers and you can't work with that? *ahem* Metroid: Other M might have flopped, but there's other kinds of threats besides the pirates, other planets to explore. You've explored her past constantly? How about her future? You've shown that parties in the Galactic Federation are corrupt, maybe take a look at what they would have intended to do had their Mother Brain technology gone well, or even the Metroid production Samus keeps shutting down. Heck, even trying to duplicate robotic warriors based on Samus would lead to a potential good game, honestly? Zero Suit Samus has a LOT of potential. The Space Pirates HAVE to know Samus's Power Armor by now. Create whole areas where sensors specifically meant to register nearbly Chozo technology would cause a base-wide shutdown, forcing her to leave the armor and sneak her way through.. Heck, give her tools and such that are ZSS-only and make these areas frequently and never let you get too comfortable with each side. Include bosses without it equipped.
*Sigh* Sorry, I'll get off my pedestal now. Getting back to what would hype for Smash? Sakurai has the right idea, tease at potential newcomers and then give us something else entirely unexpected while showcasing other potential mix-ups like he did with Kirby in Mario Kart. That said, Little Mac for the expect, a big-time villain, and another 3rd party would probably stoke the fires nicely.
