PS: Speaking of which, question for the people who aren't being mad hypocritical ITT: if you had to chuck out clones, which ones would you take away and why? Would you drastically change any clones that still made the cut? Offhand, the only ones I'd keep would be Falco, Ganondorf, and Ike (if he counts as a Marth clone, even). No reason to keep any of the others I don't think.
Ike isn't a Marth clone, but he'll probably be cut in favor of Krom or whoever the latest Fire Emblem character is.
Ganondorf serious deserves to be more than a Falcon clone.
Falcon being a clone is fair. Hell, I'd be happy with Wolf staying in as well but at least ditch the damn Landmaster. That doesn't even make sense.
Toon Link is fair as well since he represents half of the direction the Zelda franchise has taken now.
Lucas deserves to be in as well. He's the star of the most current Mother game and in any case, he's different enough from Ness. Other than sharing specials, their movesets are entirely different.
