Nono, Roy needs Peach, Rosalina and Zelda.

Roy gets all the ******* in his game.

 

[Chandeelure]

YOU AGAIN ??? GRRRR. AS IF THAT STUPID MONKEY WASN´T ENOUGH.

What monkey? ._.

 

[WALUIGIOFFICIAL WAA]

And yet Waluigi has absolutely no mainstream involvement whatsoever.

Also, following what N3ON pointed out, we don't exactly know the specifics on how many characters will be in the game. So thinking that there will only be 20 characters is rather odd at this point in time.

I think you arrived a bit late. I was already told that the "20 character limit" was a lie.

While he never appeared in the main series, Waluigi , in 13 years of existence , had 3 roles that actually required his presence and weren´t just "team-up with Wario to screw the day". I have already listed them above. Rosalina had 1 role that required her character ( the first Super Mario Galaxy. Beautiful game)

And if we use appearence in the main series as an argument to discount Waluigi, then we might as well add Yellow/Blue Toad and Honey Queen

What monkey? ._.

The user named Diddy Kong. He joked around for a while in the Waluigi Sycopanthic Support thread. I think you missed it.

Rosalina seems like a very interesting character, I'm excited to play as her! However I was really hoping for Bowser Jr. (And poor Toad) They probably won't get in now that we have 5 Mario reps, but you never know.

 

[Protom]

Time to make a paper Rosalina...

 

[majora_787]

I've got 9 more hopeful character predictions. Looking forward to seeing if I can get as many predictions right as possible for the sake of personal satisfaction and inevitable disappointment. :D

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Toad might be history, but at least Bowser Jr. is hanging on for the time being. But I'm sure that once we know Bowser Jr.'s fate, that'll put a close on the Super Mario series reps.

 

[The Drilling Juggernaut]

If this is just the starting roster we're seeing then I wouldn't count out another Mario character yet. Bowser Jr. is a perfect secret character.

Yeah, I'm thinking since we've seen quite a few screenshots with Toad as Peach's special (especially that last one with the arrow haha) that he is history. However, anything can happen. I would love to see Bowser Jr. be the 6th and final Mario rep.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

If this is just the starting roster we're seeing then I wouldn't count out another Mario character yet. Bowser Jr. is a perfect secret character.

For all we know, only the Villager and Wii Fit Trainer may be the starting newcomers.

 

[Accf124]

Waddle Dee plz...

 

[majora_787]

Rosalina is unlockable in all of her playable appearances, so I'd think she'd be an unlockable character with Mega Man. Even though it makes me wonder what their thought process is behind showing characters. I mean okay, Sonic is kind of a big deal. And so is Mega Man. And it's the Year of Luigi. But?

 

[Yonder]

Oh! Forgot to mention my opinion of Rosalina:

She is a very welcome newcomer to me. Looks unique, and well, Rosalina is cute heh.

But yeah. Welcome to Smash Bros Rosalina!

Because honestly, I feel that all the characters I could possibly want are in Brawl so yeah. Although I guess my most wanted character right now is Little Mac because his revival game was so friggin fun. And Mewtwo back because I miss him.

Roster looks good so far. Now if only we didn't have Toon Link...or at the very least declone him for the love of God.

And to stir up the pot: Ridley IS too friggin big. He looks awesome, but he should stay a boss. I mean, he got two boss fights, isn't that enough?!?

No. Because he is the main antagonist and second most iconic face of the Metroid series. He is only too big until they utilize extremely basic technical skills and scale him to a good size for being a playable fighter.

[Blaziken77]

I think we could still easily see another Mario rep, that being Bowser Jr most likely. It seems a bit early for all the Mario characters to be known, it'd make sense, and if the roster is about 52 or more, there's definitely a spot for him.

Rosalina looks interesting to say the least. She'll definitely play a bit different then we're used to, I think.

Good to see the green shell, fire flower and pokeball(while we saw Xerneas, it wasn't actually shown yet, although saying it wouldn't be there is silly)back for sure. Villager's tree is killable, interesting, and Mario's FLUDD appears to at least have aesthetic changes, but here's to it actually doing something this time around.

 

[Yonder]

I mean, sure he's iconic and I like him, but to see him shrunken down from his large beastly stature would make him less intimidating for me. When I first saw him towering over Samus in Super Metroid, it was great. A lot of the hacker attempts to scale down Ridley make him just look... Awkward at that size of approximately Bowser. Idk, I don't think his boss status should change, but that's me. If he got in, I'd be midly disappointed, but whatever.


On another subject, if Reggie became playable, I would be mortified.

 

[Hammer B]

Firstly we got Pikmin & Olimar...
then it was Rosalina & Luma...
what is next?: Mr. Game & Watch?

Those hacks look weird because he's been shrunken from an existing model. If his model was designed that way from the beginning it would look fine.

Honestly, I don't understand people's bull**** reasoning for Ridley and Ridley alone being immune to size changes. Olimar is bigger than Kirby, for god's sake. Size doesn't matter even the littlest bit in Smash Bros.

 

[The Drilling Juggernaut]

Rosalina is unlockable in all of her playable appearances, so I'd think she'd be an unlockable character with Mega Man. Even though it makes me wonder what their thought process is behind showing characters. I mean okay, Sonic is kind of a big deal. And so is Mega Man. And it's the Year of Luigi. But?

I think all of the characters shown are starter characters (except for Sonic and Megaman) Brawl got a lot of flak for having nearly all of the unlockable character be clones. I'm really hoping they learned from that mistake and made the returning clones playable from the start (Luigi and Young Link)


I'm still convinced that a lot of people who were disappointed with Brawl's roster wouldn't have been if some of the original newcomers were unlockable (Meta Knight, Olimar, and PKMN Trainer being the obvious choices)

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

I'm expecting 45-50 characters.

Even after Sakurai clearly stated this game wouldn't have as many characters, veterans or even newcomers as Brawl in an interview before?

Honestly, I hardly expect anything more than 25 at this point. Maybe 30.

Not like we can legitimately theorize anyway. We don't now what he'll do in the end.

 

[N3ON]

Spoiler

I see... so we got some Peach x Rosalina yuri going on... ok ok that's cool...

Dammit, if Roy gets confirmed there better be a pic with him and Marth!

That didn't even cross my mind when looking at this pic until now. Thanks Croph.

Really. Thank you.

If Rosalina is an unlockable she's the first one I'm having trouble figuring out why was revealed when she was revealed. The others at least had tie-in promotion or were pretty damn obvious returns. Or were part of the E3 showcase.

But who knows anymore.

He said not as many newcomers. Not that there would be fewer characters. He wants to bring back as many characters as he can.

4 out of 14 is hardly "nearly all", but I guess?

And the main thing is, who DOES know anymore? Maybe they are just dividing things up a bit so we know several characters in the game but won't know who we do and don't have to unlock while they keep the best unlockable characters shrouded in darkness until the inevitable japanese release leak bomb.

It's a lot easier to increase a small character's size than downgrade a larger character's size. Chichi Robo or whatever that robot's name is would probably look more natural. By shrinking a character, they just lose that original menacing look they once had.

And I don't think my reasoning is bull, so don't start getting feisty. I just don't want Ridley playable.

 

[No Control]

Great reveal, and another amazing trailer. Looks like a really unique character.

This time last year (well, anytime before the E3 trailer), did anyone see us seeing this combination of characters before the end of 2013?!

HYPE LEVELS: INCREASED.

 

[Muster]

I'd want Ridely to be big if he's in. He looks pretty weird when he's small, and I'm not sure how they could design a model out of a small Ridley. (That and a freakishly tall pirate dino would be a badass character)

 

[Morrigan]

Mario & FLUDD
Link & Fi
Yoshi & Eggs
Peach & Toad


This "&" naming is so lame, the only case where I would be understandable is if the ICs were names Popo & Nana, I mean who cares about the recyclable, short lived pikmin or these luma stars.

And yet Bowser looks fine shrunk down, and so does Ganon. So yeah, your reasoning is bull. Try again.

If it's any consolation there's probably a pretty good chance in-game Rosalina will just be referred to as... Rosalina, if Olimar is anything to go by.

 

[Morrigan]

Nevermind this, someone already covered it lol

 

[AnOkayDM]

Making something bigger ≠ making smaller.

And yet Bowser and Ganondorf are both shrunken down and no one has a problem. Bowser is often much bigger than Ridley.

 

[extremechiton]

id rather have all new comers unlockable, all original smash 64 veterans starters, and a mix of starters and unlockables for melee and brawl veterans.

 

[Yonder]

And yet Bowser looks fine shrunk down, and so does Ganon. So yeah, your reasoning is bull. Try again.

No, Bowser is around the same size as the other characters in some of his appearances. It has be proven that he can work being shrunken down. Aside from Ridley in the NES version, he hasn't been that small since, and for good reason. Unless I see a game where he can be shrunken down and still look as good as he does at his original size, I aint buying it.

And Ganondorf again has been shown to work well while shrunken down. If you are referring to Ganon in pig form, that's just a simple 5 second move and not playable.

So yeah, either big Ridley or no Ridley at all. You try again.

 

[Muster]

And yet Bowser and Ganondorf are both shrunken down and no one has a problem. Bowser is often much bigger than Ridley.

Ganondorf is not much taller than link in the two smash incarnations he's had. and Bowser's size is a pretty obvious variable factor as it is. (that and they both have giant terrifying forms for their final smashes.)
Ridley looks good big, smash character or not.

 

[The Drilling Juggernaut]

Maybe they are just dividing things up a bit so we know several characters in the game but won't know who we do and don't have to unlock while they keep the best unlockable characters shrouded in darkness until the inevitable japanese release leak bomb.

I meant new secret characters. Nearly all of the new secret characters were clones or simi-clones (8 veterans, 5 clones or semi-clones, and only 3 completely new characters) Meta-knight was a pipe dream before the first trailer, Olimar was heavily requested but not expected, and no one saw PKMN trainer coming. They would have been excellent hidden characters.

I'm pretty sure that all the characters shown are playable at the start. I'm not going to argue though because you're right, we won't really know until the game is out.

So yeah, either big Ridley or no Ridley at all. You try again.

Nah, I'm referring to the fact that Ganon in TP is twice Link's size, and barely bigger than him in Brawl, and nobody gives a crap. Yet Ridley's size is sacred for some reason. Bowser isn't any less intimidating smaller, and there's no reason to believe Ridley would be either, were he designed to be that size from the beginning.

For god's sake, Ridley changes size in the same damn game. Clearly they don't care how big he is from anything but a gameplay perspective. He's big to be easier to hit. That's all.

Ganondorf is not much taller than link in the two smash incarnations he's had. and Bowser's size is a pretty obvious variable factor as it is. (that and they both have giant terrifying forms for their final smashes.)
Ridley looks good big, smash character or not.

Yeah, but he's much taller than Link in the Zelda games, which is my point. And Ridley's size changes in Metroid as well. He can look fine made smaller; he stays big in the games for gameplay.

But at this point you're more likely to piss six feet straight up in the air and not get wet than see Waluigi playable in this game. Waluigi's only chance now is if he gets classified as a Wario character because with Toad already down and out and Bowser Jr being trapped in the zone of "lolwhocares", it's super unlikely we'll get six Mario characters, even if 5 are probably in the starting roster from the looks of things.

I have a feeling that the days of unlockables are over. There is no way that Toon Link is not an unlockable unless everyone was unlockable from the start.

Wether you hate Rosalina or not, there is a much greater threat to our roster at work:

http://www.change.org/en-CA/petitio...mash-bros-3ds-wii-u-roster-reggieforsmashbros

It's not happening. The closest Reggie will get to being playable is if Mii's show up.

Not really but, then again, I didn't believe any of the Mario characters had that much of chance to begin with; just a matter of personal bias on my end.

I actually did think that Toad and Bowser Jr. could have very well gotten in this game. They weren't highly likely, but were middling candidates, so had Sakurai gone with one of them, I wouldn't have been surprised. I also felt as Rosalina had zero chance of inclusion before her very surprising confirmation. Well, turns out that Toad get disconfirmed and Rosalina is our fifth Mario character.

Villager was actually a really popular choice pre-Brawl until Sakurai said that he wasn't enough of a fighter for Brawl.

He was just as frequently of a write-in request to Sakurai as Mega Man was.

Careful with using the write-in requests. These only represent a few fans desire for inclusions and ones that Sakurai found interesting, not even close to a semi-representative sample. The only thing we know of the poll is that Sonic was the most popular character on it and that Mega Man was the second most popular guest character (after Sonic).
