now that they've covered all the major current characters /series it would be nice if they went back and added dudes they missed like Isaac or an Advance Wars rep

It'll just be more FE, Pokemon, and Mario reps.

If we get Geno I'd be okay with that.

But we're long overdue for a Zelda newcomer, Impa, Skull Kid, Ghirahim, Yuja and/or Marin would be welcome!

As if. Morag is a much better option.

Although Id prefer Zeke personally. His final smash could destroy part of the stage

If Nintendo really wants to ride the hype train...

All they need to do is announce, a week before release

"And finally, Ridley will be playable."

Everyone would lose their minds and pre-order the game without thinking. The memes would flow, and people would rush in.

As for me, the evidence points towards it being a new Smash, but it would make better sense to be an updated port. Even so, I'll probably be happy with whatever the product is, so it's not like it's all that important.

I don't see a problem with people hoping for it to be a new game though. It's not like they've completely discounted the possibility that it's an updated port, but hope's a nice thing to have.

As if Smash characters have ever been to scale in the first place.

if Pikachu and Kirby are much bigger than canon, Ridley can be smaller than canon.

It was a silly reason to begin with.

Sakurai has stated/explained several times why he won't put Ridley in the game and he didn't cave to demand din Smash 4. Unless the game has a different director, the chances are pretty slim.

It was a silly reason to begin with.

Do I have to say it again? It's not canonical size that matters, it's relative size between characters.

Kirby and Olimar are canonically supposed to be very small, but relative to Mario in Smash games they're only slightly shorter, which works when you compare the size they are in their games to the size of Mario in his games, so there's no jarring sense of disproportionateness. But you can't have Ridley near the same size of Samus. Almost every time they've appeared together he's towered over her, and the one time he didnt (the NES game) it looked really weird. If you think that resizing Ridley so that he fits alongside other characters, especially after he's already appeared as massive in Smash games, without it being noticeably unusual then you're bonkers.

They have no problem with resizing Bowser in literally every game he's in so

Besides, wasn't the whole reasoning for the characters being close in size that they're just toys/trophies/whatever?

Like, yeah, it's easy to explain it as "disproportionate," but it's a pretty poor reason. Nobody'd give a shit if Ridley had to be just a little bigger than Samus

King K Rool needs more love, so I'm definitely hoping he makes it into the game.

Also, the DK series needs a villain representative.

Mewtwo is actually based off of Gigue from the original Mother, and Gigue is Giygas from Earthbound, and the only other villain rep is Porky and hell no.

Also, I'm not seriously thinking Ridley will be added - I'm saying that if Sakurai DID add him into the game, it would amp the hype levels to extreme heights. I would love to have him in, actually, but chances are less than 1% that he would be added as a playable character.

The issue is, other than Ridley, I can't think of any Metroid villains that would be worth adding - Dark Samus would be better as a palette swap of Samus.

There's little reason to add Smash characters that aren't

1. Popular new recent characters
2. Advertising

They aren't going to go mining for characters like King K. Rool when there's like...no reason to. The concept of 'representation' isn't something that really exists anymore now that they've gotten in all the core characters. Aside from Inklings, there will probably be a new FE dude and...not sure who else. ARMs?

Sylux had been hinted as the future of Prime for a loooong time (MP3 in 2007) so Federation Force brought it up again. Interviews about Prime 4 suggest he'll indeed be involved.

Fits to finally give Metroid a 3rd (technically 2nd >_>) rep, while also working as an advertisement for the upcoming game.

.... or Sakurai can say fuck it and make the 3rd Metroid character a 3rd Samus, Dark Samus should be easy to differentiate from Samus.

I'm pretty sure this is a new game because the email Nintendo sent out about the Direct announcements called it "Nintendo Switch Super Smash Bros. (working title)". If it was a Smash 4 port it'd just be "Super Smash Bros for Nintendo Switch", they're not doing "working title" for a port. Also Link in the trailer is in his BotW outfit (though that alone isn't definitive, the deluxe Hyrule Warriors port is coming out soon and they added the BotW outfit to that without making a whole new game).

But no way are they advertising it as "working title" if it's not new.
