Assuming the implied starting roster is what we get, I'm torn between Bowser, Palutena, and Robin.

If she's available, then definitely Rosalina! I feel like she has the potential to destroy everyone.
Her final smash doesn't look too good though...

If :4shulk: and/or :4robinf: are starters, it'll be one of them (with Monado Boy taking priority). If they're not starters, it'll likely be :4link:

Lady Palutena of course! If she for some reason isn't a starter, then it shall be Pit-kun.

Obviously, Mario! Because he's my SMASH MAIN FOR LIFE! :4mario: Plus, it'll be my golden opportunity to see how much Mario changed from Brawl to Smash 4, so yeah! :grin:

If Ness is available from the start like in Melee, and doesn't suck like in that game, I go Ness. If not Zero Suit Samus or Bowser.
I won't give up hope that he won't suck. At the very least the custom moves are going to be really interesting for him.

But yes, probably ness and then the weirder characters that are available just to see what they're like. (newcomers, duck hunt dog...) I can see myself taking ages just to get a sense of who would be worth investing time into just because there are sooo many legitimately good looking characters this time.

:4mario: On Classic Mode because I've done this in every other Smash game. Then, I'll play as :4wiifit: on Smash Run.

Little Mac for sure, but I will try every character to see how different they are from their Melee, Brawl, and Project M counter parts. But for sure Little Mac will be me my Main for sure.

:4pit: I can't wait to try out his new moveset and final smash. Also the fact that he has a voice that doesn't make me cringe upon hearing it is a plus.

fox, sonic or captain falcon because I must know about the momentum and dash dance immediately before I even find out about land-lag and throw-lag.

Link. I always start with Link. Though I played as Samus in the E3 build. She felt pretty good there.

I played (and won) my first match of Smash 4 as Mega Man at SmashFest, but when I actually get the game I'll probably use Mario so I can get a feel for the new physics.

Going to go kick Master Hand's butt with the new and improved :4pit:. After that I'll have an epic 7 minute 4 way duel on Gaur Plains with :4pit:vs:4link:vs:4marth:vs:4shulk:. Then I'll try my hand at Smash Run and then finally play around with the other characters.

Hard to say, as I'll be excited to try every single one out. At this moment, it's likely to be Megaman or Greninja seeing as they are brand new additions.

I'll play as either Pikachu or Samus. I used Pikachu in Smash-Fest, so I may use him again.

If Ness is available at the start, then him.
If not, then Lucario or Greninja.
If not them, then Villager or Shulk.

If available, it'll be Ike. If not, then Samus.

I don't know if I will play it right away when I get it in the mail though.
