I decided to make a roster following a simple rule:
- use sprites from my sprite folder without further alteration that are from actual nintendo games.
I came up with the following:
Make of it what you will.
Missing veterans aside;

Would still prefer this roster over 90% of the stuff you guys propose btw.

Missed opportunity to have Ridley be so big that all we can see is a part of his head (or have him take up 4/9 boxes)

dat ganon.
Wouldn't it be nice though if Ganondorf could transform to Ganon, but not back (unless he dies)

Last year's direct took place on the 25th, but I am pretty sure we got approximately a week's worth of advanced notice with it. Thus, I expect at least an announcement this week or early next week.

That's if we are getting one. We should get one during Feb since it's bimonthly. We had one during December.

As I said, without further alteration. That's the Ridley sprite I had.

I like it. :O Well, this plus the return of most if not all the previous veterans would be perfect for me.

I recalled that Sakurai posted the picture on Twitter but few hours later, he decided to take it off. So far, most of the characters on the picture got confirmed for the game which isn't surprising. We still have 4 more characters to go. The unconfirmed characters would be Wario, Zero Suit Samus, Metaknight and Mr. Game and Watch.

I think it'd be pretty safe to assume all of those characters were returning whether Sakurai had posted that or not. Though he probably realized he had less trolling potential by even suggesting any character was safe.
The real bombshell is that Sandbag will be a playable character in the game as the first Smash Bros. series representative
And the sandbag

Remember we just had a rumor that confirmed Sandbag being playable character.

That was his Final Smash in Brawl, aside from his not transforming back.
I actually really liked the 'feral' incarnation from Twilight Princess a lot more than the overly anthropomorphic and upright Ganon of the previous games. It's like an incarnation of his pure unbridled hate, juxtaposed with his human self, which is calculating and intelligent.
Well, Sakurai does seem to be showing some love for the heavy characters. As long as Ganondorf gets a new moveset (sword + magic + quickness), I'm all for a big bruising Ganon (strong + magic + slow).

Mr.saturn confirmed
I'd hope Ganon would actually be somewhat different from a stereotypical "bruiser" type character like DK or Bowser. Make use of his trident, give him projectiles, and let him teleport to mix things up.

As long as he keeps the Flame Choke, I would welcome the introduction of a Magic Swordsman Ganondorf.
We're safe as long as she doesn't have an infinite chain grab.
I like that Ganondorf is a slow, powerful bruiser, since that provides a contrast to the other Zelda characters (and it also makes sense given his connection to the Triforce of Power). I just hate that his move set is based off of Captain Falcon's. It wasn't a huge deal in Melee because Ganondorf (the humanoid form) was a one-off villain at the time, and because he was a last minute addition to the roster, but there's no excuse anymore. He's far too popular a character to be neglected like that.

I really want him to keep his thunder stomp and flame chokeslam. He's sooooo awesome with those two moves.
I would love to see Ganon make it in (meaning as opposed to Ganondorf).[/SPOILER]
Has Sakurai ever given his thought on large characters?
The 3DS stage looks pretty bland and boring in that shot. Wii U by far, it just has a lot more detail and I really like the floating ruins style going on in it.

I really like both Battlefield, and I can't really pick one between both version.
I like....both? I can't choose between the two.
Choose your favourite.

'Dorf should keep all or almost all of his specials even if he's changed to be sword-y, they're just too much fun.
Just give him a reflectable energy ball instead of Warlock Punch , change a couple of his normals to a sword, but keep that tilt move where he basically puts his foot straight up behind his freakin' head

Agreed. Wii u also has fluttering flags, grass blades blowing in the wind and better lighting.
I think sakurai just zoomed out more in that pic to showcase the entire background.I think they both look really nice. Ruins style in the Wii U version with some fantastic lighting. The elegant natural look of the 3DS version with some fantastic backgrounds.
I don't get why the Wii U shot is so small for the comparison though.
I mean why use this:
Instead of this?
Though the bottom image is more blurry than the one I posted in my previous post.
