Note: These articles are more for discussion purposes before E3. They'll be short, sweet, and to the point for a brief recap and looking into possible characters/stages for each series in Smash Bros. These also go by a "Don't expect too much" philosophy. Please remember to be civil in the comments discussion.
The Ice Climbers are interesting - made their debut in Super Smash Bros. Melee and had one stage, reappeared in Super Smash Bros. Brawl with one new stage, only to get cut from Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U due to hardware limitations, though several references are made to them.
So, how about this time?
Returning Characters
It really depends - The Switch can definitely handle them in a 4-player match, but what about 8-Player Smash, should it return? I think the Ice Climbers will return if it's possible from a technical standpoint - my guess is they'll probably be fine.
New Characters
Uh... the Polar Bear? It would be hilarious, but that's probably a no. We'll be fortunate enough to get the Ice Climbers, but it's a funny thought.
Returning Stages
If an older stage returns, Summit from Brawl is most likely.
New Stages
Something that looks more like the Ice Climber NES game is my only guess
