Here's my ideal E3 idea:
Throughout the Nintendo Direct, at the end of each game trailer we see an unconfirmed veteran getting an envelope. For example:
-If a Star Fox game is announced, we'll see the inside of a Wolfen, with a hacked conversation between Fox and Falco.
"C'mon birdbrain, get your tail feathers over here!"
"I'm on my way, don't get too impatient, Fox."
The camera shifts to see the monitor inside the Wolfen changes to the Smash logo, the Wolfen zooms off into hyperspeed as a loud howling is made.
That kind of thing. Eventually, we'll see the Smash Bros. trailer, with all hinted characters showing up. We'll see any other veterans who have no connection to these events (Ness & Lucas, Captain Falcon, Ice Climbers, R.O.B., G&W, etc.) arrive too. We see several new trailers, including:
- a basic one, revealing Shulk, Chrom and Palutena, alongside gameplay for the unconfirmed hero veterans.
-a third-party one, revealing Solid Snake and Pac-Man.
-and then later into the Direct, the villain trailer, revealing the unconfirmed villain veterans, plus King K. Rool, Ridley and Mewtwo.
This is not all of the characters, though. There are still several hidden ones in the final game.
