Don't worry Diddy, the Triforce of wisdom promises that Impa willSeriously have people ever even played a damn Smash game. First people question if the free fall animation Fox showed in the boxing ring area on Mario is a new move, while it's been his standard free fall animation ever since Melee, and now people forget about Mario's growing taunt? The very same one he had since Smash 64?
Well, whatever. Since Chrono also said we should be more vocal about 'low priority' characters I'll be shouting out: Dixie Kong, Impa, Toad and Ike for Sm4sh!!!
Brawl's roster was finalized around late 2005, I believe.
Red shells were clearly removed for gameplay issues.
Gameplay issues? Eh, hard to believe. Not when there's tons of explosives, rolling carts, Assist Trophies...
I don't think any other character can do that, though.
Mewtwo isn't someone you'd want to add at the last minute.
After Smash 4 we could very well be exhausted of Nintendo characters that a lot of people care about. Already two of the Top 5 most wanted characters for Smash 4 were characters already playable in Smash Bros. I will probably get into this later (or whenever I have more time), but the fact that three of the newcomers shown for Smash 4 (as well the other three rumored ones) all come from newcomer series, while most of the fanbase did not really care for newcomer series outside of Little Mac, Isaac, Shulk, Mega Man, and maybe Pac-Man, shows that Sakurai may think the best way to keep Smash Bros. "fresh" in terms of newcomers is to explore new worlds as opposed to series that already have a character or more in Smash Bros.
At this rate, I really see no point in doubting Mewtwo's return. He's pretty much got all the card laid for his inclusion. If Mega Man can get in with popularity being a major factor despite being less requested than Mewtwo and third-party status; then it's safe to say that Mewtwo will return.
At this rate, there's very few great choices left for existing series additions. The only ones I can think of at this moment are King K. Rool, Dixie Kong, Ridley, Mewtwo, Roy and Palutena. After those, things start to get dicey in regards existing series choices.
To be fair, Mega Man, Villager and Wii Fit Trainer are all very well known and iconic. Little Mac, Mii and Pac-Man are also well-known and iconic characters (Little Mac to a lesser extent, but still). So those are already six well known characters. Mewtwo, Roy, Ridley, King K. Rool and Dixie Kong are also all well-known characters. Add those five and that gives us eleven characters that are well-known.
Well the fact I am on a message board talking about a cartoony game (Smash Brothers) should say the opposite...
I inherited an N64 from my fiancee and bought the game off Ebay. (I already had the expansion pak). I have a friend that loves Goldeneye and we have that as well. Always comes over wanting to play. (Goldeneye is his favorite all-time game).Suckers. I have a Nintendo 64 with a cartridge of Donkey Kong 64.
I did have to wait a few weeks for my Expansion Pak to come in, though.
When you're dead?
I am getting married, about to be 30, and I work non-stop so have very little time gaming but I love "Smash tha Brothers" as I call it to my fiance. I have friends around my age that play as well. However, I am hesitent to get a Wii U or the new Smash because of my age and the lack of time to game. Ironically I have time to post on here while at work, in fact I rarely get on this board when I am off work.
Palutena is relatively obscure when compared to Toad using the general population as a metric, but among Nintendo fans she has a good deal of popularity.
Remember how a lot of us, me included, were talking about characters having cinematic value prior to E3, and speculating that they'd be shown off in the trailer as a result? By giving every newcomer a trailer, Sakurai is giving all of them at least some amount of this value, thus hyping them all and, simultaneously, the game itself. A very smart move on his end.
I remember that and remember being confident that Takamaru and Little Mac showed up at E3. I'm still surprised that the only character I guessed right was a third-party.Remember how a lot of us, me included, were talking about characters having cinematic value prior to E3, and speculating that they'd be shown off in the trailer as a result?

Also, a shameless shoutout to me for posting on page 666.
. The dreaded triple 6.
You tried your pro controller on what? The only game i have tried it on was AC3. It feels alright though the triggers feel a bit far for comfort.
Aside from Palutena (and excluding Mario universe characters), those are also the only well known characters left from veteran franchises that were not playable in Brawl. I would say Toad is a Nintendo All-Star at this point, but he is still a very iffy character in regards to actually getting in Smash 4.
