He is one of most requested characters.

Reindog (MVS)
Reindog acts as a quite unique archetype in Smash, given his nature as a more support-based character which isn't really an archetype we've seen in Smash as of yet and could potentially lead to interesting developments in competitive duos. There's also the matter of Reindog being a quadruped, giving him a generally unique design in terms of fighting style, and also that Reindog could potentially bring plenty of cool things to the table in terms of content (such as his various alts and costumes!)

Hmm... how about Casino Luigi (Specifically, Luigi as seen in the minigames in Super Mario 64 DS and New Super Mario Bros.?) Photo related!

Honestly, another Pac-Man rep would be really fun to see, and the archetype of "ghost" works really well in concept for a fighting game like this. Whilst Sue might not be the most well-known out there, I think she'd be fun to see nonetheless and acts as a representative for a weirder, but very cool, time in the history of Pac-Man as an IP!

Think of all the fun Mii Costumes we could get! Big Chungus! Keanu Reeves! The possibilities are endless!

I think that the concept of a fly lends well to a lot of ideas you could play with in Smash terms, mostly an ultra-lightweight character with high manoverability, especially in the air. Not only this, but Maggie's character - being a somewhat rebellious but kind-hearted person - would lend well to her representing her series as a fighter.

An extremely slow heavyweight with limited evasive options who nonetheless has no armour and dies in two hits would be an interesting archetype to finally see represented in the roster. Would they be fun? Well, that's your call. Depends if you want to see a Lv1 Pichu CPU as an endgame bossfight.

Despite a lack of arms or legs, the concept of "a sphere" as a playable fighter lends quite well to a momentum-focused moveset - and marbles are actually quite a surprisingly common fixture in gaming history, so it'd hardly be a strange inclusion. Not only this, but the isometric look of Marble Madness would make a great stage!
