DLC has been heavily rumored for SSB4. But the one glaring question is - just how many can we expect? Part of the problem is that we can't confirm exactly how many will be on the initial roster. 46-52 is the range everyone is predicting... and I'm inclined to agree especially since the game has been delayed by roughly 3 months. Clearly Nintendo wants this to be a big seller for the Wii U so more development time makes sense.
How many characters could possibly fit into the 3DS version, though? The Wii U could probably handle 60+ characters including DLC, but the 3DS doesn't have as much memory space.
I'm speculating that the amiibo figurines will be DLC for SSB4 and you can only get those particular characters by buying the figurine associated with the character. Seems like a smart way to sell amiibos.
Any cut veterans from Brawl seem like a given for DLC except Snake. I'm not sure if he's coming back... he provides a unique moveset and he's enjoyable to play, so I'd like to see him return, but 3 3rd parties is pushing it in a Nintendo All-Stars game without Ridley, King K. Rool, etc.
I'm predicting 9 at a minimum (Cut Brawl vets and amiibo figures) and 14 at a maximum (Cut Brawl vets, amiibo figures, Roy, 4 newcomers unrelated to amiibos but with new games coming out - Krystal, Sceptile, Dixie Kong, and one unrepresented franchise)
What do you guys think?
