Note, this is excluding little bits like PK Fire! and PK Flash! and refers to full sentences. I think, we can expect a number of characters to talk. Note, these are made up impromptu.

My guesses:

Snake
Fox
Krystal (not confirmed)
Peach
Samus
Pit
Meta Knight
Lucas (maybe, he says like three lines in MOTHER 3)
Zelda (BIG maybe)
Ganondorf (see above)
Ike and any other Fire Emblem characters like Micaiah(not confirmed).

Ummmm.... who cares? And Ganon and Zelda should NOT talk. That's like saying Jesus flipped some one off, it's just.... wrong.

Has Samus ever said a word ever? I wouldn't count on that one.

She's talked in Fusion and Zero Mission. Despite popular belief, she's not a silent protagonist.

Yep, beat me to it. Anyway, I'd say that prediction is fairly accurate. I wonder though if this game will stay true to keeping silent protagonists silent, or if they'll make em talk. In my opinion, either every character's gonna talk, or none of them will (playable ones, anyway).

Hmm only two people I can picture talking talking(like full sentences) is Snake and Sonic. Mario,Peach, Luigi only say like short phrases.

Some won't speak solely on tradition such Mario and Luigi, Link, and Yoshi since they have never been talkers.

Somewhere, most likely existent
Snake, Sonic, possibly the Star Fox characters, Meta Knight, Dedede, possibly the Fire Emblem characters, and the Ancient Minister. That's what I'd guess. Other characters might have logs or something like Olimar, but wouldn't actually talk.

Why would Ganondorf, Zelda, or ESPECIALLY Samus talk? Samus never talks except for like one line in Fusion. and that was text. :p

I don't get the Ganon/Zelda argument. Sure, they don't "talk", per se, but the two of them always have dialogue for LoZ games. Why wouldn't they talk?

Cap'n and Sonic will likely speak. Zelda didn't even speak in her taunt. O.o

I doubt Samus and Lucas will speak as well. but that's so cool how Meta Knight speaks....XD. His hardcore manly voice is intense.

Why is Sonic not on that? You can't get Sonic to shut up! Though I do like his voice.

You and nobody else, but that's another story. Well, we already know that Snake can talk in Codec transmissions, so it's a fair bet he'll talk in other situations. However, if someone like Mario was going to talk, he probably would have said something in the intro. Same goes for Pit with that Patulena scene.

So I'm going to go ahead and assume that some characters in SSE will get voices, and some won't. (Snake, Fox, Sonic, maybe Metaknight and a few others.)

Well, Melee was pretty inconsistent. They gave some characters voices that had never spoken before(Ness), and they left some totally silent when they talked all the time in their games(Zelda). It seems like Sakurai pretty much does whatever he wants when it comes to voices. Seeing Meta Knight have a full spoken line for his victory screen makes me think we can expect more voice acting, but the Adventure cinematics are basically silent films... So, who knows. Wait and see?

Though it's highly unlikely, would anyone else love it if the characters spoke in mumbles and gibberish in the Banjo Kazooie series and it's 'translated' through text?

That would be so funny.

You know what? For Zelda games, there needs to be scream-o-vision.

i would say Pokemon Trainer
Like it or not this things are usually based on anime. Just like you wont here charizard being released on the stage with the ingame cry instead probably saying "ZARR"

Pokemon Trainer has never said a word. He's a silent protagonist.

didn't Samus talked in that game with the baby Metroid??

Pit did talk in his victory theme.

Samus doesn't really talk per se in any of her platformers...

There is diologue, but it seems more like a mission log or something rather than her talking, like a comment she wrote down afterward

Actually, they say "Hi! Do you like Pokémon?" whenever they start a conversation with someone.

I don't see the problem with Zelda and Ganondorf talking; I mean, they're obviously not mute like Link.

Yeah that's my stance. I mean I know it sometimes seems like the text is actual words spoken by her, especially noticeable in Metroid Fusion when she laments about that old computer that used to give her mission briefings, but the lips were sewn shut.

"Sonic's my name, speed's my game!"

Yeah Sonic is going to be saying stuff. They aren't going to have someone voice Sonic for that section only.

Snake will talk obviously.

I don't exactly hear Mario going "Mario's is-a my name, I have-a no idea what my-a game is" in his games so Mario won't speak.

Zelda, Ganondorf, and Link won't speak and the only things you will hear are Zelda's gasps, Link's groans of pain, and Ganondorf will let his package do the talking (if he's in)

Ike will probably speak Japanese that noobers will ask the translation of for all eternity.

I think all perverts are looking forward to ZSS's groans (and moans). She probably won't talk though.

Pit is paired with Mario in Subspace he's clearly not going to say anything. They will communicate with smiles, nodding, and striking fighting poses.
