...Okay.

Newcomers:

Rosalina - Confirmed.
King K. Rool - Main villain of DKC, very popular choice.
Ghirahim - Personal choice. Even if I didn't like him I would still choose him over the other Zelda candidates.
Ridley - Highly requested character who is a very prominent antagonist in his series, Metroid.
Palutena - A highly requested character who was brought into prominence with her role in Kid Icarus: Uprising.
Little Mac - A highly requested character who was recently revived.
Takamaru - The most requested character who fits the "Retro" criteria. Has made several cameos in recent years.
Krystal - Highly requested character since Brawl era.
Lyndis - Would stand out more than the other Fire Emblem candidates and most requested behind Roy and Chrom.
Villager - Confirmed.
Shulk - Requested frequently and from a newer well-received game that may receive a sequel.
Wii Fit Trainer - Confirmed.
Mega Man - Confirmed.
My only problem is Ghirahim, he is just a bad choice IMO. Anyone actually supporting him is delusional. Other than that, perfect roster. :troll:

Sukapon is still my number one choice and was the only retro character not deconfirmed to actually have been considered for SMASH

Check Out My Roster....
I actually really like the roster. Waddle Dee, Krystal, and Lucina are some of my favorites. It definitely feels original, not to mention the roster icons. They look great, I haven't seen those ones around before. It just seems so personalized. The aesthetics were really nice, even though I hate horizontal organization. It really worked here.

This is a very good roster but we can't have two "Katana Sword" user (Lyn or Takamaru)

Well, remember, supporting is different from thinking a character has a chance.
For example:
I support Toad. :awesome:

Their styles are totally different tho

But I've said this million's of times, not gonna go through it again lol.

Do you want 10 sword users who basically do the same thing for newcomers, at least make it diverse.
I guess we got to get rid of all the punch and kick characters, bye mario, we gotta make it diverse.....

Image works.

And it isn't a statement; just a badass pic of anime Goroh.

Now... all I have left... Hades and Meowth... my precious, precious characters. :sadeyes:
I used to support a lot of characters before Brawl and SSB4... but most of them have been deconfirmed repeatedly or are pretty much hopeless after deconfirmed repeatedly or are too obscure (or not recent nor relevant)... now I got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Seeing as in melee we had 25 characters and that number jumped to 35 for brawl (Not counting transformations/pokemon) I think it's reasonable to expect 8-10 newcomers if all the brawl veterans return. That would mean we've been shown nearly half of the newcomers already leaving 4-5 left to be revealed. Thoughts?
But 5 were cut in the sequel (mewtwo, roy, young link, dr. Mario, pichu)

So wouldnt we get 13-15?

Let's talk about underrated characters.
And by underrated I mean CRITICALLY underrated characters, that are never brought up in discussion.
Victini :)

EDIT:@ Mega Bidoof

Wouldn't he be considered veteran? Would sakuria waste a newcomer space with him :/

No one is going to remove the super iconic plumber though. :p
Just saying if the newcomers chosen in Smash 4 have to be really unique, I don't we should expect Takamaru and Lyn playable in the same game.
Their both unique in their own way. If you think their styles are exactly the same, you need to play more soul calibur or mahvel. They are totally different. I don't want to go through this again, because I will bring out walls of text and examples, don't make me do it.
