I missed a lot of fun! Anywho:

Wow, of all the prediciments so far this is by far one of the closer to logical ones. I must say If we got this as the roster or something similar that I wouldn't be disappointed. It has Sukapon and Isaac. Overall; I agree, SF Is the only series I'm shaky on.
Also, please tell me what Krystel DESERVES a spot? And don't use arguments such as "female" or "moveset potential".
Why does she deserve a spot? Because she's an important character to the series (And the last character of the SF Series that's important and will work) To complete off the series. Really, why shouldn't every series have all It's viable reps to complete it off...Well until it gets new viable characters (As in main important characters to the series)? (Well, outside of Poke/FE because that's ever-changing)
She was heavily wanted in brawl: I really can understand that people would want other series given some attention, but this is Smash Bros - Rep's are hardly determined by sales (Heck, stage representation does a better job at that
)
Star Fox does not deserve four characters. I am tired of Star Fox fans thinking they are ENTITLED to a newcomer every Smash game. Heck, there is a good chance F-Zero is going to be stuck with one character next time as well. Why should Star Fox have four, yet F-Zero have one?
Why should Mother, Star Fox, and FE Have 2-3 when F-Zero and Metroid have one?
...I don't really have much to explain there; I wouldn't consider Samurai Goroh/A second F-Zero rep a "Shoe-in" But a series that have been neglected for a while often seem to get attention next game. (See: Kirby)
I was playing Brawl last night. Know what SSB4 should have? MOAR challenges! It just feels so satisfying to get a reward for clearing a challenge.
Cruel Brawl is cruel. I still haven't defeated 5 and 10 enemies to clear two challenges!
No no no: We need challenges like kirby's air ride. Imagine 120 Challenges for stadium.
That's why I don't look too much into liklihood for characters, retro or not. In Smash, anything can happen.
3. In the final co-op event match where you fight the entire roster, Wolf is the last character you fight, who appears even after the guest characters.

I have written in the past that Sakurai's original planned roster for Brawl had Mewtwo and Roy on it, but later in development got swapped for Sonic and Wolf.
Just a note: Sakurai said all of the roster was finished in the end of 2005 (Discluding Sonic) Thus meaning that he did think of Wolf at one point.
Also, Wolf may have been last minute to program back in but he wasn't a clone. The main point is that they were considered and still made it through (Falco made it twice) - Why? Because they're important characters to there series.
Hey, guys. For those of you interested, I have just started a social group just for gameplay discussion. Best of all, everyone's welcomed to join.

Awesome. I'll be sure to join and discuss.
If Pokemon is getting four or five slots on the character select screen, one of them will be Pikachu. There is no doubt about it. So the remaining three or four slots are up for grabs.
PT And Jiggs are for sure returning. Last two...I don't really know. I know one's at least going to a pokemon not repping the first gen.
Ness/Lucas is the most pathetic attempt at decloning ive seen.
Uh, they aren't clones. Only moves they share are these:
Stick/Baseball bat (Lucas's moves out faster but has a lower knockback)
PK Fire - Lucas's doesn't rack up damage and helps recovery, ness's racks up damage.
PK Thunder - Lucas's recovers faster and doesn't kill well but can combo well, Ness's only hits once, recoveries slower, and hits with massive knockback when you aim at an opponent.
PSI Magnet - Lucas's can damage and is rather far away than ness's, also available for recovery.
And the rest they have generally different playstyles. Lucas's is more combo, Ness's is hit and run/Grab. Lucas/Ness do not need to be an alternative costume of one another; That'd be like saying Mario and Luigi should.
