So this is what's been burning in me all day since we got our glorious new Skull Kid:
Other Assist Trophies:
- I'm not sure I expect most of the originals to return. Maybe 3 at the most.
- Former ATs that could become playable and likely will not be ATs this time at all. (Isaac, Waluigi, Lyn, Goroh, Little Mac, Starfy, Tingle, Saki) I expect Little Mac, and maybe 1 or 2 more of these to become playable, and then I don't expect any of the others in the game at all except as trophies, stage details, etc.
- Characters that seem likely that people fear might become ATs
- Palutena, if she's not playable, I expect her to be Pit's Final Smash again, or nothing. It's either go big, or don't go at all for her since she was already an element in Brawl.
- Chrom, I really kinda expect him, but I also think he has high AT potential if not playable. That's pretty much all.
- Ridley, It'd be a slap in the face to us fans for him to be an AT at this point. It'd be sort of a downgrade from boss. Stage Hazard in the Pyrosphere is very likely, but if he's not playable, I'd be heavily disappointed to see him as an AT.
- K. Rool, I just don't see it. He'll either be playable or nothing. Same goes for Dixie. Both are too important to be dismissed as just an AT.
- Takamaru, I think he'll make the cut, but if he doesn't, he'd be a reasonable and welcomed AT.
- Shulk, He seems like too interesting of a character from an interesting franchise not to be playable. If he's not playable, I'd definitely expect some sort of Xenoblade character AT, just not sure if it'd definitely be him.
If any of the characters from the Brawl roster are cut, I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT expect them to return as an AT. That'd be a demotion. Same for cut Melee vets. Roy deserves better.
Mewtwo wouldn't be an AT anyway. And if he isn't playable again, that's the single most disappointing thing Sakurai could cast upon us.
I expect new and exciting side characters from our favorite franchises in the vein of the Magnificently rendered Skull Kid.
- I'm expecting Knuckles or Tails this time.
- Krystal, Slippy or Giant Monkey Andross need to make the AT roster, one of them deserves the shot.
- A Funky/Lanky/Tiny/Chunky/Cranky Kong is deserving.
- I don't see Rosalina as playable yet, but she seems to be the perfect AT.
- One of the Metroid Prime Hunters would be rad.
- I think I expect another Zelda AT, possibly from any game. I'd personally like to see Midna whack you with her hair fist and then laugh and fade out.
- A couple of retros.
This reveal opened up a realm of new possibilities, some exciting, very exciting and some possibly very disappointing. But either way, this game gets more and more impressive by the second, and we don't have close to all the pieces yet.
