Dixie over Diddy? No way! Sure she's a female, but there are ALOT of other factors for choosing a character like importance and populairity and Diddy is better in both than Dixie! Just please... Being a female character shouldn't give Dixie priority over Diddy, that just doesn't makes sence. =/
And why should Young Link return? I've explained before that it wasn't neccencarly Young Link in the games before Ocarina of Time. In Melee Young Link's thropy said that Link's apperance has changed over and over again so I say it's a whole other Link all togheter. Also if they really thought Young Link was the real Link then why did Adult Link made the apperance on SSB64??
Waluigi, I don't want him... -_- He's not even deserving it. Princess Daisy a good shot? She's just as Waluigi an unoriginal filler character. You want Brawl full of just filler characters or good characters who are more well known and unique? You say it.
Also just to make sure, Miyamoto isn't making the game. Heck Nintendo doesn't even makes this game! Miyamoto sure is the supervisor and checks if the development is going good once in a while but other then that he has nothing to do with Brawl, nor the characters.
I say if Diddy's in, Dixie's in, and if Dixie's in, Diddy's in. It's just that simple; not having either of them would be a mistake, and Nintendo's not going to have one without another.
As for YLink not being in SSB 64, Link was far more popular more popular because of Ocarina's amazing success. Plus, the N64 catridges had far more limited memory space than the GC disks. Link is usually 13 or 14 in the LOZ=YLink. Sure, in Zelda II he's 16, OOT he's 12 and 19, and Twilight Princess he's 17, but all the other he's 13 or 14. Play the series, and check the YLink trophy in Melee.
Waluigi and Daisy can be originals if made right. Just give it a chance. You still can't disprove that there are going to be more than 6 Mario characters (including Wario and Waluigi), considering it the #1 selling series of all time! Expect more Mario characters, easily.
As for the Miyamoto thing, how do you know he's not gonna help Sakurai, considering he helped form the Brawl development team. Miyamoto could also might give Sakurai idea, idk, but do any of us know what they are doin or planning? NO! With a need fir more female characters, expect at 3-5 new female characters. On top of that, if you haven't noticed the out-of-the box ideas is what Sakurai specializes in.
Sakurai's ideas are extremely out of the ordinary, and is what he is most well-known for. Hint: SSB is out-of-the box thinking, and is a pure original. Plus, Snake and Pit in Brawl, as well as G&W, Ice Climbers, and Ness (even though he's in SSB 64) are out of the ordinary characters. Expect nothing and be surprised. He is known for doing things people never thoguht of, but like and that is what Sakurai is good at, and is probably going to continue to do
O, and master gary, i a, not giving up! I don't care if I have to own everyone of you noobs who want the "clones" out without changing them to become pure originals, but if YLink not in Brawl I gonna be mad as hell! Plus anyone here ever played LOZ?
A link to the past? Link's Awakening? OOT? Majora's Mask? OoS? OoA? The Wind Waker? Four Swords? Four Swords Adventures? Minish Cap? Phantom Hourglass? Geez, anyone else her played all the LOZ games but me? Why boot him out when you can remake him?! God, am I the only person who has played all the LOZ games?
Why everyone hates YLink? What about Falco? Sure Falco's my 5th favorite, but he's also a clone. They both are clones, but why is one loved, one hated? I want them both in Brawl, but as pure originals. Getting rid of him would make fans of LOZ mad, and Nintendo would lose money dumping him, compared to keeping him. Last I checked, Nintendo was about ALL the fans, and doing that would lose many fans, including me.
