If the 35-person roster is correct, 8 of the 14 hidden characters are returning vets. There's not a lot of "wow" in who's remaining, as we had seen them in the game before. Had they hidden some of the newcomers and revealed the vets, it would have given us some excitement. But here we're just getting confirmation on a few newbies and a bunch of characters we all thought were pretty likely to make it back anyway.

I think they went about the roster reveal the wrong way.

The simple fact that Ridley is not a PC for the THIRD time makes this roster suck. Period.

ROB is not ROB 64. If they were referring to the one from Star Fox, it would be called ROB 64. But it's just called ROB. So it is the little guy for the NES. Maybe he'll be one that splits from the Subspace and joins with the heroes?

Well, if the 35 character roster is real, then most of the characters not revealed yet are veterans, while it would make more sense to have the number of vets top newbies quite even...
In the 2Chan leak:
Marth
Mr G&W
Falco
Young Link
Luigi
Captain Falcon
Ganondorf
7 characters, that means only 2 newbies, which to them are Wolf and ROB, both Starfox characters. This sounds like bull to me, only 2 Newcomers we don't know about? Those 2 of which are BOTH Starfox characters... no, it just doesn't work for me.
I'm becoming more inclined to believe the 48 one, I know it would be too good to be true, but I can't believe Mewtwo would be ditched with an original moveset... While Falco and Wolf return, and we're expected to believe all their movesets are different? Megaman or Bomberman would have a far more unique moveset than 2 Fox clones... (Not saying they will be, but what can you do with them?)

The fact that Geno, K. Rool, Ridley, and Krystal are not on the list disgusts me, they were all very high on sakurai's list.

35 roster= not likely til proven true

I don't get why it's so much more believable than all the other prophets/roster ideas? Can anyone actually answer me that? It would be SO EASY to make that screenshot and that disc. Even I could probably do it, but I don't see the point, unlike someone from 2Chan did.\
Seriously, is there a single reason we should believe it so much?

I don't get why everyone comes up with these theories, like the 35/48/67/1129312 character rosters and all that other crap, there is hardly any proof that these are real....no, let me put it this way, there is NO proof that these are real, if we had some good pictures or a respected Nintendo-rep saying ''THESE are the characters, now go and be happy!!'', THEN I will believe it, we DON'T know which characters will appear, okay, maybe Ganondorf, Captain Falcon and Luigi are no-brainers, but for the rest of the roster, WE DON'T KNOW!!
Maybe EVERYONE will return from Melee, even Roy and Young Link, but we just don't know, now let's wait just a few more days and THEN we know the final roster, instead of coming up with new theories and discuss these, don't get me wrong, it's nice to discuss about something, but without proof you won't be able to discuss, since you have no information, and opinions are not exactly appliable on these subjects, so just wait and see...

Here's another thought, why hasn't the person who got the disc and intro roster posted a single other shot yet in around 8 hours?
