Yes, please. Though for different reasons from what you mentioned. Regardless, this question has been tackled in other threads.

I don't like that idea simply because the ability to transform between the two on the fly is what makes them an interesting fighter. It would be like seperating the Ice Climbers and making them each their own character, or taking away Kirby's ability to copy his opponent's powers, their transformation is what sets them apart from any other fighter. Samus and Zero Suit Samus have a similar relationship, but Zero Suit Samus is only accessable through Samus's Final Smash. In other words, there's no real conscience changing between the two, either you're stuck as one or the other. As for Pokemon Trainer, the ability to change is conscience, but the strategy is different. With PT, the switching is based upon using each Pokemon evenly, as using one for too long or changing too often will result in hindering the Pokemon. This isn't as free for switching to the right character as Zelda/Shiek is, to which that really is how they're meant to use.

Not bad. I don't think their transformation thing will go, but I would love to see the ability to choose in between the two, even if they're on the same icon. Hopefully the same will apply with Samus and Zero Suit Samus.

Only the fact that Zelda's update didn't include her and unless she's on her own it's pretty much over for Sheik.
Samus' updade didn't include Zero Suit Samus until her final smash was reveiled...

...that proves nothing.

Is not the same, why is it the same?
Why the hell would Zelda's update have to have Shiek for Shiek to be confirmed...

None of Zelda's moves have been releashed yet...and the ones that have are the same as the ones in Melee...

Not to mention that confirmed true article that Shiek's TP stype design was submitted for Brawl.

You said that since Shiek wasn't in Zelda's update means no Shiek...

But since Samus' mentioned nothing about Zero suit, why would Zelda have to mention Shiek?

Because Zelda and Sheik are two in one, why would he release Zelda alone and not Sheik? I give you the moves but that's it, and it doesn't have anything to do with samus so stop trying to back your arguments with that, plus Zero Suit Samus and Samus both had their respective profiles when the dojo opened, so if he was to confirm sheik he would've done it the same day he confirmed zelda.

Why...

Zelda and Shiek always have different profiles...

They did on the Melee one too

Zero Suit Samus wasn't reveiled until a while after Samus (On the new Brawl site)

Wrong.

He updated Zamus at a different time than Samus. There is no reason why Zelda would be different. We haven't even seen her moves yet.

Ya know, I must say that it's strange how long we've gone since Zelda was confirmed without even a peep about Sheik. Either Sheik is getting the boot or a MAJOR overhaul.

Is what I said in my first post, if Sheik hasn't been shown it probably means it is not returning or it will come back alone, can't you read?
...and that's based on what...

A lot of characters haven't been shown yet...


...Is Captain Falcon not returning?

Sheik is the only ninja on Smash Bros. No way can Sakurai toss such a kool character even though she has lost her significance. Gee, thanks alot you fools who made Twilight Princess! Jerks!

I personally don't think Shiek needs to be nerfed...

...But I guess to enable the whole need to transform thing...

I guess her knocking power can be reduced...

I would like Sheik to return, but sadly it won't happen because Nintendo is moving past OoT.
