Basically 7 characters who are on the brawl disc, but their files are incomplete. We can assume that they were not completed and added to the roster due to Time Constraints.
Aaaaand. Who were they? All I remember is MewTwo and that's it.
Mewtwo, Roy, Dixie Kong, Dr. Mario, Toon Zelda, Toon Sheik, and Plusle and Minun tag-team (like Ice Climbers)
Only one that I see as a possibility is MewTwo. So that's my opinion.
K. Roy can maybe be DLC. Dixie is still possible as well, but i would prefer K. Rool.
Yes! I realy want Toon Zelda (or at least Tetra) 6 Zelda reps aint bad and we need one more toon rep for Zelda IMO.
Well, 'it' has the highest chance of being it. So He'll be in to raise the hype levels even more. He should get a trailer, "Mewtwo Strikes Back".
Prai Mai is Plusle and Minun, from what I heard. And I 100% agree with you. Since their files weren't completed, maybe he'll bring them back in someway (i'd say Mewtwo, possible Dixie on disc,. Roy, Toon Zelda DLC) since it may take less time to make and place them on the roster with the others.
Toon Sheik is terrible, should've been Tetra. But anyways, Toon Zelda could still work. Impa would be better tho. Sakurai could change-up some of her attacks to be a semi-clone like Toon Link or a completly different character from Zelda. As I stated before, i wouldn't mind Dixie, but i would prefer K. Rool.
If things go as how they planned (Which they should as there isn't any Sonic type last minute addition as far as I can tell), then they really shouldn't. And if any of them do wind up missing out due to lack of time, then I can imagine them being finished off and released as DLC. At least that's how I see it... :/
That's not entirely certain as the Ice Climbers have separate files from each other and Dixie being presumed to be originally meant within a tag team with Diddy also has a separate file so it hasn't been fully agreed yet to what Pra_Mai could possibly have been.
If so, who would the new forbidden 7 be? Which characters were planned for the sm4sh roster and have been cut?
I doubt we're going to see the same number of unfinished characters again, that'd be pretty coincidental. Otherwise I don't think it matters much, we can't access Wii U files yet, and by the time we can the unfinished characters will likely have been added as DLC.
I dunno, I think it's pretty likely for characters to get started and then cut as the development timeline becomes clear. It isn't too hard to believe. Maybe it won't be 7 again, but I'm willing to be there will be at least a few.
When did Sakurai say that?
He said that sometime in the past.
Preaching are weHonestly, I think Mewtwo's the only one of them with a significant chance. He's still highly requested, still relevant nowadays after getting a signature move in Gen 5 and two Mega forms in Gen 6, and they could easily rework his moveset the way they did Pit's. Arguably, his biggest competition is Jigglypuff, since I kind of doubt they want 2/3 of Pokemon's reps to be from its first game.
I could see Dixie happening, though. We've had a couple nods to Donkey Kong Country already, with Kremlings in Smash Run and all of these unconfirmed Chunky sightings. If the roster's 51 characters, I'm pretty sure we'll get a new DKC rep. I'm hoping more for K. Rool, but Dixie would be okay.
I think a lot of people are actually overrating Roy's chances. Being in Melee doesn't give him any special treatment (isn't that right, Mewtwo?), especially since he was a full on clone. If the developers are pushing for unique characters, having red hair instead of blue wouldn't keep Roy from feeling any less redundant than Chrom. And the biggest strike against him: there are other, arguably more worthy Fire Emblem characters that have come into existence since Brawl. Awakening is actually far more popular in Japan than Binding Blade, believe it or not.
And honestly...I don't get the hype for Roy. It seems like most (but not all) of the support for him comes from people who've played Melee but haven't played a ton of Fire Emblem games and don't realize how many other viable characters there are. Nostalgia isn't everything, you know?
As for the others: Dr. Mario would have to be an alternate costume for Mario, which could certainly happen. There might not be a new Zelda rep at all this time, much less half-clone versions of Zelda and Sheik. And if Gen 3 wasn't relevant at all until earlier this year, with development starting only a few months prior, there's no way we'll get a rep from then, much less ones as disliked overall as Plusle and Minun. I could see a Gen 3 mon being DLC, though, but something like Sceptile would be more likely.
?
On the contrary, like Kikwi mentioned, both Plusle and Minun would need separate files. I standby Golden's theory that it was some unused custom character. Sakurai stating he considered Miis to be in Brawl seems to further support his theory.
Being a Really cool Lord isn't enough for playability if you're going by that logicMewtwo, Roy, and Dr. Mario I would love to see. Mewtwo is self-explanatory. Roy for being a really cool Lord, breaks the trend of blue hair, and having an amazing Japanese VA. Dr. Mario for more sentimental reasons, he was an old main of mine back before I picked up Mewtwo, and there's a good chance he won't have that stupid Fludd thing for a down special move. A Fludd-less Mario is an awesome Mario.
Don't care much for the rest. Dixie could be interesting, but all I really want to see her do is twirl her hair in HD, but that isn't reason enough for playability
. And I liked Dr. Mario waay more than Regular Mario in Melee, but now with Alternate Costumes...yea. Plus, Custom Movesets lets you turn F.L.U.D.D into Scolding
