Sakurai: *laughs*
I'm hoping, at this point, a young Link is considered a staple for the series. And considering the most recent young Link is Toon Link from Spirit Tracks, that's who we'll be 99.99999% seeing.
I want pink hair link too ; _ ;
Maybe Wii U Zelda will have a new young Link :O

Adult Link is always sluggish and unplayable. Toon Link ftw.
This man speaks the gospels and the truth. Adult Link is a nightmare to play with.
Toony FTW indeed.

"Toon" Link does have a wide range of weapons that could be used to differentiate him from the main Link. On the other hand, aLttP Link does have every single weapon used by the main Link character. So, either way, it comes down to design decisions from Smash Bros itself. The younger Link has always been designed as an alternate faster Link, rather than a completely different character. That's what it comes down to.

Honestly Adult Link sucks.
Eh, I dunno. Toon Link just seems to lack the extra -oomph- in force that Adult Link has...

Instead of fighting polygons or wireframes we should have to fight the Wii Fit Fitness trainers...
we're just going to end up battling Miis
I think Kirby should be able to eat assist trophies and stages while we're at it. New Pork City Kitrby!
If I am not mistaken she looks like some sort of staff user...at least there is a map sprite of a pigtailed woman holding a staff...then again that sort of thing has occurred before.

Back in Brawl, Sakurai said that he didn't include Miis because he thought they didn't work as fighters. That reasoning seems rather weak to me, personally. One of the first Mii games was Wii Boxing... I think he just doesn't like them much.
So, even if we do get a Mii character in the next game, I'm pretty sure they won't have much presence.

If we get Miis in the next Smash Bros it means the 360 is more kid friendly than Nintendo.

Wow. There's plenty could be done with Miis, particularly now. Bowling ball attacks, archery, planes, the works.
Sakurai obviously isn't a fan.

Because the miis will be able to hold the gun items?

I hope we get OOT Y.Link again instead of WW Link. We'll probably get the kid that shows up in Zelda 3DS.

I want Cosmic Clones as an Assist Trophy somehow. I don't know how it would work but it would be glorious.
Aside from one wrestling idie game, Miis have never been in anything even mildly violent, so yes.

He said the same thing regarding Animal Crossing, did he not?
It does seem a bit hypocritical, considering Game & Watch's presence. Both Mii and AC Guy/Gal could easily be another G&W. Silly attacks using various themed stuff from their games.

I like him, but the extra speed Toon/Young provides is too much of an advantage to turn down.
I just want the younger Link to get a new moveset. Link has the greatest combined arsenal of any video game character ever- time to make use of it. Let Adult Link be the master swordsman.
Wii Boxing?

Exactly, that's why Adult Link sucks. You'd think Adult Link would have the properties small Link has.

One thing I've felt for a long time when it comes to smash;
I wish more characters had A moves that behaved like B moves!
A good example is Snake, half of his smashes are stuff like mines and RPGs, it really makes his moveset seem a lot "fuller" which I like.
I think some characters that are known more for having lots of weird moves rather than physical fighting would be a lot more interesting and fun if they were a bit like Snake in this regard.

I was about to skin you alive for saying lttp is better than Wind Waker, but then you continued with Awakening being better than lttp, so I'll let it slide.

I agree!
I would really like them to do something between Miis and Xbox Avatars. Or just more simplistic xBox styled avatars ... the current Miis just look so simple and lame. :/
But Nintendo wants the Miis to be simple. I think they look much better than the creepy Xbox avatars tbh.
They could get in a Mario Kart and run people over. Mii hit and runs. And they fenced in Wii Sports resort.
Or they could just have a Mii Plaza stage in the vein of that Pictochat stage and have all your console's Miis in the background.
(I also like the simplicity of the Miis, like them better than XBLA avatars)

calling the xbox avatars creepy is such an overstatement. they're ugly for sure, but creepy? really? fuckin' weirdos, the lot of ya
link's awakening is the best zelda and if anyone disagrees they are stupid

Things aint as black and white as that.
Miis changing and becoming more detailed doesn't mean they become more "realistic".
Mario characters are more detailed than Miis but are by no means realistic.
As they are now they're hard for me to relate to because of how limited they are in appearance and I figure I'm not the only one.
I'm not a complete fan of Xbox avatars ... but I'm sure Nintendo can do better than that if they go for a cartoony style.
I mostly think it's because those things don't animate too well. If they LOOKED like hey had life in their animation I'm sure that would solve some problems.
It's not so much the speed as it is the attack that combo better and the FAR superior recovery and projectile game IMO.
It really doesn't help that Adult Link has an absurdly steep learning curve either.
The Swordplay arena from Wii Sports Resort would be a fun stage, especially if it breaks down like it does in Sudden Death in Wii Sports Resort. Of course, the spectators would be Miis from your system (and in online play Miis from the systems of everyone else in the game, too).
I do hope we get a staff fighter of some type in the next Smash. Be it Ephiram with his lances, Krystal with her staff, or anyone else who fights with a staff or spear. I just want one of them.

I wouldn't call them creepy but I would call them offensively bland, miis could do with an improvement though.

The Brain-Age guy could be the new Andross.
Definitely this. Aside form more detailed designing, they also need more customization options.
On a related note, some may find this article interesting.

As far as additional Zelda characters go, I went through some of the recurring characters to get a sense of who represents the series as a whole more than just one specific title. Here are the characters I found, with their number of appearances (The parenthesized number refers to games where they were referenced but did not appear as an actual character, while the other number is full character appearances)
Tingle 5 (+3)
Epona 5 (+3)
Dark/Shadow Link 5(+2)
Beedle 5
Impa 4(+2)
Vaati 3
Out of this list, I could see Impa becoming a new Shiek. Epona and Beedle probably don't have much moveset potential, but could be assist trophies. Shadow Link will remain a color option. Vaati could be an interesting character choice.

Sakurai may not like Mii's but we know he loves AR cards.
Special AR mode for the 3DS version please.
As stupid as that idea sounds it makes perfect sense. Imagine the Smash 64 intro.
There you go. Instantly create that scenario in any well lighted room.
Sure it would be a pain to play but damn would I like to try that out somehow.

Pretty much guaranteed. Remember the trophy display in Melee? Tons of stuff in Smash Bros would work in AR pretty well.
Why do people call him "Adult"? Isn't he like twelve?

OoT Link is like 18, TP/SS Link around 16/17. (That puts OoT Young Link around 11, and MM Link probably 12 or 13)
I meant Avatars >_>

His final smash would either be similar to captain falcon but involve the Duck Tales money dive or be a mini-game whereby you have to play Go. If you lose your save gets wiped.

Actually I'm pretty sure OoT Link was 16, and TP/SS Link are 17.
But I think I've had this conversation before, and it was hard to dig up sources.

As in "Heathcliff"
We should have a bragging right contest who make an accurate character list but there is a problem which we don't know how many characters that will be in ssb4.
Along with other problem, we don't know if they are going to do SSB4 or SSB3DS first.
