Use Brawl's first 5 seconds with the sunset and characters on the cliff (seriously, that part WAS good people, even if it's the only good part)

Then do the rest like Melee!

I'm sure it will be something new, I mean, come on! He has a whole animation department! There is no excuse not to make something big and flashy.

The villain/rival trailer idea has been thrown around a lot and I think that could be used as the opening cinematic as well. It would, presumably, be the last newcomer trailer we get before release so why not. It wouldn't have the "XXX joins the fight!" splash cards as usual, but sets up similar to how Brawl did with SSE.
Start off with the slicing of the SSB symbol, heroes fighting, clips from other videos show, blah blah blah, sky goes dark, villains start joining the fray and they clash off, maybe hints at unlockable characters throughout, all leading to the logo on the start screen with announcer going Suuper Smaash Brotherrrrrs.

There we go: No opening cinematic at all, no announcer for the title (in the 3DS version at least). :( I hope they'll do something for the Wii U version - which is the definite one after all!

Shame it had no intro... Don't see why, if they went through the time to make a tutorial for it they should've made in intro instead IMO.

I kinda hope that it's a compilation of art styles that relate to all of the participating universes, like how the newcomer trailers generally had unique styles.

For example, you could show off Pit and Palutena fighting someone(s) in an anime style (with Dark Pit being hinted at, possibly? :3 :3), then go over to Little Mac fighting Samus someone in that brushed style from his trailer, etc.

Pretty much each universe would be introduced in a somewhat unique way, but then conglomerate into the single SSB style when the trailer nears its end. Somewhat of a way of saying "look at all of these unique characters here in one game!"

Oh, and given the obsession with retro as of late, they would definitely need to do something with Sonic, Mario, Megaman and Pac-Man. Don't leave the holy quad of gaming out of this.

shh, we're just in denial and want to fuel our wishes with our tears made of tears.
Essentially this.

I personally want an intro for the Wii U version that just shows pictures of Ridley and K. Rool and other characters that people really wanted as sad music plays. Then it transitions to Sakurai's laughing face.

Ouch. At least have it be laughing Sakurai dumping all the Nintendo characters into a fiery pit (Which is where you see K. Rool and Ridley) and then the remaining characters come in an kick his butt.
