I know that there popular characters,but SSBB left out at least 4(or 5 if you count young link) characters from SSBM,and Solid Snake and Sonic are mostly guest characters since they appear on other systems.Still,this isn't Soul Caliber where they have an awesome guest character and never use them again.

I think they'll both be in though,Sega and Nintendo seem to be friends,that's what it looks like since we have Mario & Sonic games still coming out,and Metal Gear is getting Cameo's from people like Yoshi.

(Note:Eventually,the topic becomes the official Smash Bros thread,but it is now replaced by the newest one that you should easily be able to find.)

I would like both to come back, but I'm pretty sure they'll dump them.

But hopefully the following will finally make it in:

Mega Man

Leon S. Kennedy

Crono

Shantae

Maxwell

Neku

A Boy and his Blob

I have no way of knowing that, but I hope Snake isn't in it.

I don't care if they keep Sonic one way or the other. 

It doesn't matter to me either way if they return or not.

Just keep Lucas though .

Hmm, they would both make it, or both could not.

I'm just happy they are making another one . Should be interesting to see how they will go about it this time.

Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS very early in development, said it shouldn't have been announced

The following information comes from Masahiro Sakurai...

- "We really shouldn't have announced it for the general public at this timing, but since we have to assemble staff, we made the notice. The future will change depending on the strength of the gathered developers."
- development won't start until Kid Icarus: Uprising is complete
- Sakurai hasn't started thinking about characters

Guess its time to start reviving some of those old character petitions .
