Yep, those are the most fun most of the time. But I'd guess you are safe. There will be some retro stages returning and also new ones that follow their layout. I hope there will be one or two remakes of classic stages.

Galaga i.e. a Namco reference.

No, Pit's third jump seems to quickly launch him now, much like most standard third jump attacks. It's not the slow free flight from Brawl anymore.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOLY SHIT
Its safe t say this opens a whole can of worms http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Namco_games#Nintendo_platforms
Especially Wario.

Great Fox has to be in, it's been in every smash up until now. Would be a total letdown if they didn't bother putting it in.

Aside from the Third Party characters in Brawl, that has been true for every Smash game before release. It also has never been explicitly announced, so, during Brawl's pre-release period, there were people thinking that we were getting unlockable characters revealed before release too.
That's what I was thinking. I haven't played twinbee or many other NES/Arcade era shooters other than space invaders, really. I thought they were galaga but didn't want to blatantly guess and be wrong. Namco confirmed!

Have people devised a possible moveset for him?
Did you know: Competitive Smash has Pokemon Stadium as a counterpick stage.
The more you know...!
Anyway...
One thing that's still unclear is how the Mega forms for Lucario and Charizard work. It really doesn't look like they are Final Smashes at all. Then again we didn't see them transform in the first place so it's possible they're final smashes I guess... it'd be kind of lame if they were though. There should be a special condition/requirement you have to meet to transform into them, it'd be really cool if they weren't locked to getting the Smash Ball.
I guess we'll see.
That's cool. I wasn't trying to diss competitive players.

Back in his Judging days. Judge Dredd is cool so I'd be ok with that.
Seems most of Nintendo's biggest and most popular characters are spoofs of the other characters, stories or tropes. King Kong, Star Wars, Judge Dredd, Toilken, Alice in Wonderland.

I'm all about criticizing games. I hate the whole "It's just an opinion" bit just as much as anyone else. I just hate people griping over things that don't need to be griped about. Spending this much time complaining about the size of her boobs is just ridiculous. Like I said, she's always been about sex appeal as soon as she steps out of her suit.
Guess what, sexualized characters in gaming have rarely looked realistic, especially in games where they aren't going for realism. That is something worth discussing, but only if talking about gaming as a whole. This thread is not the place for that.
And this is a party/fighting game. If you want to complain about something, complain about the mechanics, how fun the game is (or isn't), character selection, or any number of things that actually matter.

Classic Falcon is like what you'd get if Dredd was turned into a GI Joe character. (which is basically just perfection)
While that may be true in most cases, unlike the heels in Other M, these heels look practical. They look like something someone who leaps high and falls far would wear.
And even guys get in on it:
The original purpose of high heels was to aid in gripping stirrups by horse riders, and modern boots, including combat boots, still have slight heels (though obviously not as tall, but then soldiers aren't expected to leap 20 feet in the air and fall 100s of feet). Plus they don't look very designed for sex appeal.
Edit: On the subject of design, I'd actually really like to see a Captain Falcon that takes more from his SNES design.
Not bad at all.
Looks like they just ported most of his Brawl animations into the new model. Hopefully they go back and fix some of that clipping.

I don't know why, but Yoshi's left hand/arm looks creepy here.
Yoshi in general looks creepier now... Nintendo has ever steadily been making him more and more anthropomorphized and it just looks wrong... I mean he's still wearing his saddle for crying out loud!
(edit) Or has Nintendo decided over the years that that is a shell now? If so it's even worse from a design perspective.

Is that the supposed E4 stage? Which game is that based on?
WHY THIS IS NOT IN X AND Y ???
They look exactly like final Smashes, like Giga Bowser and Wario Man before them. Otherwise (at least Lucario's) would be completely broken.
OK, So here's my thoughts on Returning/Wanted characters, and signs on why they MIGHT be in and why the MIGHT NOT be in
Snake:
+ Unique moveset, not many nintendo reps could use all of his moves
+ Was the best moment of the original trailer, made a lot of people surprised and excited to play smash
- MGS GS/TPP Snubbed Nintendo
- David Hayter snubbed as snake
- Should have probably already been revealed
- A lot more voiceover work for codec calls would be required
- Sheik stole his grenade
Ridley:
+ If he's not in, why not just show him outright, and not a silhouette? What's the purpose of the tease?
- Tease might just be to hype that ridley is actually in the game, vs not at all (average fan is supposed to think, wow how cool, ridley is a stage boss!', not 'Oh man, ridley isn't playable')
- He's probably just a 'boss hazard'
Palutena:
+ Removed from pit's final smash
+ Trophy tease RIGHT after showing she was removed from pit's final smash
+ Kid Icarus uprising fleshed her out as a character, gave her a personality and a potential move set
+ Sakurai is responsible for Kid Icarus revival. It's his game, and he can show favor toward it
- Palutena is a statue on a stage. No other smash character is a statue on a stage.
+ Toon link is replaced by alphonso, so being on a stage doesn't mean you can't appear in the game
- She is a goddess!
+ So is rosalina!
Squirtle:
+ Unique moveset
- Greninja
Ivysaur:
+No plant type starters
+Unique moveset
- Too many pokemon reps already?
Mewtwo:
+ Mega evolutions of pokemon X/Y made him popular again
+ Has a fairly unique moveset, excluding his neutral B, which is somewhat similar to lucario
+ No other psychic type pokemon
- Too many pokemon reps already
- Might have officially been 'replaced' by lucario in brawl
Captain Falcon, Ness, Jigglypuff:
+ Been in every smash bros
+ Jiggly has always been secret
+ Ness/Falcon were secret in 64 and brawl
- Luigi has already been revealed, and he was always secret
+ Luigi was probably an exception for 'year of luigi'
Edit:
Pac man:
+ Galaga guys are in the game
+ S-flag in game (from rally-X) [thanks Zonic 505]
+ Namco bandai working on the game
- He's a dumb character for a fighting game, classic version lacks personality entirely
+ Sakurai is a smart guy, and if anyone can make him work, it's sakurai and team
+ He's already raced alongside mario in mario kart arcade games
- A lot of people, myself included, don't want him in. Doesn't mean what we think matters, though
Mii:
+ Huge part of nintendo's history since 2006
+ used in dozens of nintendo games
- Already appears in background of find mii stage
- Could be used for profile purposes (global smash power, online avatar), and not actual fighting.
Snake:
+ Unique moveset, not many nintendo reps could use all of his moves
+ Was the best moment of the original trailer, made a lot of people surprised and excited to play smash
- MGS GS/TPP Snubbed Nintendo
- David Hayter snubbed as snake

The song that always plays when I wonder where they are.

Not to mention, Rally-X is in as well, due to the S-Flag being an item, though I can't help but wonder what exactly it'll do.
But yeah, considering we don't see items/assist trophies based on 3rd party games without some kind of playable representative, I'm convinced we're getting a Namco character, mainly Pac-Man because he'd fit the bill of "Classic Namco arcade games" we're seeing with Galaga & Rally-X.
That's from Pokemon X/Y
Without going into much detail I'm just going to say that a location called "Palutena's Temple" is probably going to have statues of her regardless of physical presence.
with going into more detail: that statue was an addition to KI:U's depiction of her temple, it's the backdrop of the arena where you fight her after she's possessed by the Chaos Kin

When I saw that Sheik was given a grenade I almost lost it.
We didn't specifically see exactly how it works but I hope snake isn't just going to be mangled and his moveset thrown all over the place if he isn't in.

Thinking of alternate costumes, no chance of Magicant Ness is there...of course I'm not talking about the Japanese version (which was naked) but pajama Ness.
I'm being reminded of the photo-realistic sandwich in Sonic Unleased.
If items, pokémon and assist trophies are any indication, Sakurai's firmly committed to the no cuts rule.
