do you take the western demand for character seriously?
can you be a boss and playable?

Well we did get Little Mac. While he's no Ridley, he's definitely a character aimed at the western audience, and he's a popular and highly requested character to boot.
ALSO WE DON'T EVEN KNOW OF RIDLEYS FATE YET, HAVE A BIT OF PATIENCE. GOD.

Well, the problem is that the Q&A is solely reserved to news media. Just like the Pokemon X & Y Q&A of last year's E3 (the one where someone asked if Mewtwo Y was going to be in Smash 4) the event will be held after public hours are over meaning only people who are invited by Nintendo themselves will be able to attend the event. Meaning only news media people will attend.

I will be at E3 all day for the 4 days of the expo, I am restricted to only the public hours (until 6 pm), but I will try my very best to see if there is any legal way possible for me to attend the Q&A, although I highly doubt it.
Chin up bro your a cool guy RealTalk also there is a high chance for the character in your profile pic to get announced playable there.

Since he was hinted at last year in the same place! I strongly think Sakurai will follow up on that.

This should be good! I'd personally ask if stage builder was returning, and if so, how has it changed. My other questions are mainly about characters, so. :awesome:

No kidding?
No kidding, but if you think about it, it actually makes sense. Sakurai balanced based on his own perceptions of character worth so, given that, how could his main end up anything but bottom tier? Clearly his own Ganon abilities being in excess of his abilities with other characters caused him to drastically overestimate Ganon's value as a character.

Well, that happens when one guys does all the work. I'll bet dollars to donuts that Sakurai is one of those people who feels like they have to do everything... Anyway, I'm glad Namco is helping out this time around. :)

EDIT: I bet Sakurai's one of these: http://www.16personalities.com/infj-personality

If it's press only, don't expect anything like "where's x character". What I expect to be asked:

-how is the 'delay' going to improve the Wii U version?
-will there be DLC?
-will there be download play on the 3DS version?
-what are the differences between the versions, beyond visuals/stages/smash run?
-will there be features similar to Mario Kart 7/8 (communities, MKTV)?
-is stage builder returning?
-what are the differences between Smash 4 and Brawl?

If Geoff Keighley is there: "what sparked the decision to make the game a Wii U/3DS exclusive?"

Unless someone from this site (@Raykz???) manages to get into the Q&A, expect a whole lot of "OMG Sakurai what's it like???" or "Thank you so, so, so much, you're literally the best!" remarks, with the occasional nugget of info scattered in the mix if we're lucky. So much for gaming journalism.
One thing for sure is that we're going to have some moron ask about Goku.
Then half the people in the crowd will start booing the person until he cries and leaves.

Let's ask him about the Gematsu leak guys!

(I bet Sakurai is thinking of some automated responses already to all the "Where's Mewtwo/KRool/Ridley" people heh.)
