Not sure Ridley fans will likely accept that explanation in a post-Subspace-Emissary world (aka ROB is an enemy in the game, therefore not playable... except it turns out ROB was playable
)

Or the more liked Regular Ridley
Wow, I never even thought about that.Not sure Ridley fans will likely accept that explanation in a post-Subspace-Emissary world (aka ROB is an enemy in the game, therefore not playable... except it turns out ROB was playable
So, are we expecting a trailer w/ both DHD and Bowser Jr. Or their own trailers each?

I'm thinking they'll both get their own trailer. Seems kinda lame for Bowser Jr.'s trailer to be Duck Hunt/Zapper-themed.
Nah, I think plenty of people don't expect too much. Smash 3DS was a reality check in a lot of ways.
Hopefully that ends up ultimately being for our benefit.
This is my opinion as well. The scenario is unlikely but not impossible, and for that reason it's still worth considering.
Someone needs to Commission Slowbeef for voice acting in Smash 4.

Yeah, hopefully DHD will get something interesting to show off.
This is like, what, the first trailer to be released after the 3DS' release? Maybe we'll get a bonus.
The trailer is probably going to be nothing but pure comedy and slapstick though. XD

Yeah that's quite probable. He had both regular and metal forms in Brawl. In fact with how many times Ridley comes back from death through science it would be funny if he was a stage hazard/boss and could be playable against them.
"They're just different Ridleys"
If they were going to go to the trouble to replace Link (when Spirit Tracks Link is known to be separate from PH/WW Link and all the others), then of course they'll replace Ridley.
Speaking of that bit, is Alfonso (or conductor Link) still in the ST stage? I only played the normal version once, but I don't remember them there.
My personal guess:
Duck Hunt Dog trailer opens.
Technical tidbit (1080p 60 FPS) follows
Midway through, Bowser Jr. trailer revealing eight-player mode.
Ends with Ridley announced
Wii U becomes the greatest selling console of all time, Nintendo profits enough to cure all world diseases, and we enter a new age of scientific discovery shortly afterwards.

Killing the creature from Other M with Ridley would be cathartic. Until he respawns three seconds later, of course.
Just seeing Orbital Gate in motion and the full version of the Temple remake would make the direct worthwhile. Though I wonder if any other returning stage got a similarly drastic makeover - while Castle Siege is much improved, Onett and Halberd only received minor texture alterations.

I wonder if the PotD is going to be another curve-ball like that Rayman trophy.
Don't worry, I doubt he'd be excluded from the Wii U version's trophy gallery if he made the cut for the 3DS version's.
My personal expectations:
-Da Cunt trailer
-Smash World is just a .jpeg of a new Mario Party 10 game board
-8 player Smash was just a ruse to throw dataminers off the scent. Sakurai mentions "maybe it would've been possible if we made this game on a real next gen system"
-Koopaling alts are cut from Smash Bros U. Sorry.
-Smash WiiU now runs at 240p for true 3DS parity
Anything else is just sweet icing on the cake!

Pic of the day. Here's what's happening behind the scenes in one of the secret fighter's shooting moves. The object being held is called an NES Zapper. This is an accessory which was released for the NES outside of Japan. Now, this image is edited, but it's a scene from the secret fighter's reveal video.
Haha thats really nice. Can't wait to see the video.

You seriously need more calcium.
Not expecting any new characters, or even any mention of DLC.
We'll get stuff that hasn't been formally announced yet (Bowser Jr. and Duck Hunt Dog), some stages and game modes. I'm expecting some cool, Wii U exclusive modes. Come onnnnnn event matches and real break the targets

Yup and finally! I truly want to see how decent his HD model will look.

I just want to see a new Donkey Kong stage.
If Ridley is announced as playable I will blow my Caloadrius
This is what I'd bet money on.

This is my crazy prediction:
During the direct Ridley is shown as a stage boss or regular boss with Sakurai's Mii personally defeating him by knocking him off Pyrosphere. Ridley fans collectively sigh while a single tear runs down our faces. At the end of the direct there's a new trailer. It's on Pyrosphere with a bunch of characters just hanging out and celebrating after vanquishing Ridley. Then something flys up off the stage. "Ridley ______ in!" He then starts beating up everybody. Then it cuts to gameplay. Finally Samus and him prepare to fight at the end.
Anbody else kind of weired out at the hole in Pyrosphere and Sakurai's hint that Ridley would come out?
I mean that's basically exactly how the Pyrosphere stage hazard already works in Dead or Alive Dimensions. Would Sakurai reuse the same stage hazard on the same stage from a different fighting game? It seems like something he wouldn't do.

And then at the end of the Direct Sakurai announces the game is canceled and all copies of Smash 3DS are sought out and destroyed.

Aside from hoping for the return of veteran modes absent from the 3DS version, I'm really interested in seeing how the leaked modes are going to be implemented - a proper Stage Builder in particular is something I really want to see. Well, that and a dating sim minigame, of course.

Event matches are more likely to happens but not Break The Target. Apparently Break the Target is more likely to be replaced by Target Blast. I just went with what modes that got announced by announcers that founded in 3DS version.
I don't expect any dlc characters or extra characters to be announced too.
