DICKS AHOY

Characters I absolutely want in otherwise my interest may instantly be deflated:
Characters I'd personally like but after the above am chill enough about to not mind if they're partially or entirely skipped over:
Characters I really don't want to see but will probably get over pretty quickly to be honest:
Bowser Jr. (WOW SO BORING. People wanting Geno are subconsciously asking for him to lessen the chances this guy gets in. Only way I'd be happy to see him is if every other Koopaling was somehow worked in as a selectable character on-top of him)
- Ridley
- Samurai Goroh (I realize at this point considering F-Zero's status I'm probably setting myself up for disappointment)
- Little Mac
- Mega Man (Classic)
- A Mario rep from any of the RPG games who isn't just Paper Mario (PM is the same Mario just in a different art style; really don't see how him with slightly more of a paper-gimmick and a hammer would be ideal over something like Fawful or a partner/villain from the PM games)
- The return of everybody in Brawl, plus if possible Mewtwo and Roy (M2 since he represents a part of Pokemon I can actually remember/give a shit about and Roy since he's an FE Lord who doesn't happen to look like a reskinned Marth)
Characters I'd personally like but after the above am chill enough about to not mind if they're partially or entirely skipped over:
- K. Rool (Alternating between different his 'King', 'Kaptain', 'Baron' and 'Boxer' identities) or Cranky Kong (Fights by a combination of over the top kong-fu moves and summoning elements such as barrels and bees from all three DKArcade games, all while complaining about 'games these days')
- Jill Dozer (Something something Smash is a sausage-fest something something drills)
- Isaac/Matthew (No idea how Goldensun for the DS did but Smash has a surprisingly small amount of magic users)
- Lip (Repeat of Jill's explanation with drills replaced with flowers and summoning Panel de Pon Blocks. Extra points if you can move these pieces like an actual game of Tetris Attack)
- Medussa (Balances the villain/hero ratio and can be both the first villainous and the first Smash antagonist to not have weight problems)
- Tom Nook (Honestly surprised he wasn't in Brawl, considering most tools in the AC series could be pretty easily worked into attacks and he's the most iconic character)
- Elite Beat Agents/however you spell their Japanese equivalent (Easily my favorite DS game after TWEWY, and I'm pretty sure Nintendo owns the rights so it'd be a neat mix-up to have a music/dance-focused fighter. Plus I'd like to see interest in the series rekindled so we could get another game on the 3DS)
- Professor Layton (Not sure if Nintendo owns the rights to him or if Level-5 does, but either way the series seems to practically be synonymous with the DS so having a more passive and intellectual fighter could be a neat challenge for the team to develop)
