This may not be the popular opinion, but I'm personally hoping for unlockable characters. One of my favorite things about Sakurai's games, and especially Smash, is the rush you get from unlocking thing after thing, whether it be characters, stages, songs, trophies, etc. I just LOVE that feeling.
And unlockable characters takes that feeling to a whole new level for me - there's just a very visceral satisfaction or pleasure I get from seeing a new square added to the character selection screen and slowly filling it up.
I do understand the arguments against having characters be unlockable, definitely, and I think there's merit to them. I'd just prefer to have them unlockable.
I dunno, I think the came from GameFAQs or something. Two separate rumors, both claiming Wario would be "revealed by the end of next week." (So, this week.)
If Wario gets revealed this week (or any veteran reveal for that matter), I will be expecting a veteran reveal a week. Two newcomers and two veterans in one week? That can only mean the reveal train is in full swing.
That's how I'd feel too. It won't happen, but it'd be exciting if it did!
