I'll say what I said on other boards when they were building up to Brawl; I want King K. Rool to get in. When you look at the roster, you really only have a small handful of "villains"; Bowser, Ganondorf, and Wario. Technically King DeDeDe falls into this category as well, but he was just as much a hero in Brawl's story mode and I'm pretty sure they've been building him up as more of a secondary Rival to Kirby with the later games. But the King? No, no, he's a jerk. He steals bananas, kidnaps Kongs, and turns his wife's pots and pans into a robot. Plus, I like his boss theme (in DKC and DKC2, not so much DKC3.) Wasn't there something weird like Rare owns the copyright to the kremlings or something? I thought I remember that being the reason they weren't in DKCR Doubtful considering there were trophies of them in Brawl, as well as being in a few post-Rare games.

I thought I remember that being the reason they weren't in DKCR Doubtful considering there were trophies of them in Brawl, as well as being in a few post-Rare games. The Kremlings were Nintendo property. They stayed with Nintendo, especially since the Mario Strikers games feature a Kritter as the goalie for every team. The reason the Kremling Krew weren't in DKCR was because the guy who oversees the franchise wanted a brand new spin on the enemies, and Retro was more than willing to go that direction. They're still in the Marioverse, especially since King K. Rool was in Mario Super Sluggers, but they decided Donkey Kong should face new baddies once in a while.

Ah, I thought someone said the kremlings weren't. But as I've said my memory sucks some times

I wonder how many guys/gals who mained Pit ae worried with his new moves now... Honestly I am kind of amazed they didn't completely redo Pit, because Uprising Pit plays noooooothing like the Pit from the first two KI games. They only gave him like what, two new moves based on Uprising? Kind of a let down, honestly, as his arsenal is so damn wide in Uprising that they could just redo him completely.

Speaking of Pit So any one think they might add Palutena as a playable character? To add another female fighter to the group?

You know, if they're with that mentality, why don't they have f***in' Mario face someone different instead of Bowser first? I mean you have Tatanga and Wart...why not use them every once in a while too. K. Rool made sense for Donkey Kong. In fact, it also made no sense that this guy would just steal a bunch of bananas. Nonetheless, he became my staple villain for the franchise and it just isn't the same without him. I know there's some similarities between he and Boswer, but K. Rool is MUCH more theatrical and seems to be going through a midlife crisis with the number of personas he's adapted. Nintendo is stupid if they fail to ever use him again in their Donkey Kong series. They're also stupid if they don't bring back Engarde, the BEST animal buddy in the series, bar none.

Well to be fair, in two games Mario faced Wario, and then there was all the RPG villains. Tatanga I don't know why they don't use him considering Daisy's become a party game regular. Wart...it's iffy. Yes, Mario's series has used SMB2 characters now, but Wart I don't know if they wanna bring him back or not. Speaking of villains though: for new Smash consideration: I HAVE FURY!

They brought back water stages in Tropical Freeze, even with an air modifier to make things challenging, so this may be the big chance to bring back Enguarde.

First character update since E3.
Olimar and the Pikmin will return, but I don't know if he will be able to use the Rock Pikmin or the Pink Pikmin yet.

Well, design wise, the real change was only made to the helmet, adding the whistle there. Surprised they didn't go with a Pikmin 3 character there. Seems the screens that are shown there are all for the WiiU version. Maybe Olimar isn't gonna be in the 3DS version? Also:

Sakurai recently had an interview with IGN.com, and stated that the goal would be to have the same roster for both versions. However, I think it would be better if the complicated or gimmick-based fighters, like Olimar and the Ice Climbers, would not be used on the 3DS version if they prove to be too complex, and instead, those slots focus on simpler characters. Also, same would go for the Wii Fit Trainer, although that argument is only based on the Wii U version's focus on home console games. The Villager, on the other hand, should be on the 3DS version, as two of the series games, Wild World and New Leaf, are on portable consoles. It's also probably why Villager and Wii Fit Trainer don't have 3DS images.

I heard same NUMBER of participants for both versions.
That doesn't necessarily mean the same exact roster though.
But time will tell.
*Still waits to see if Sonic is returning and Pac-Man appears. So want that four way battle.

So want that four way battle. I should read that list again. I know Sonic's a given, and Kojima would be more than happy to have Snake return (maybe with Keifer Sutherland's voice?), but Pac-Man may be a long-shot. Despite "Bamco" working on it, they weren't given an opportunity to add a character of their own. At least, not yet.
