Super Smash Bros. 4: Vetrans and Newcomers

On April 8th a Nintendo Direct Special for the new Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U showcased more gameplay, new mechanics, and new characters. However, there were a few things missing. One of which happens to be one for the first twelve fighters in the Smash Bros. circuit. Along with some missing fighters there are also some fan wishes out there, so let's take a look at a few of them.

Captain Falcon
Captain Falcon has been in Super Smash Bros. since the beginning and having a game without him would be like The Avengers without a Captain America (regardless of member changes). He may show up in a trailer during the Nintendo E3 Direct but the reasoning behind this move could be a few things: it could be to hype Super Smash Bros. 4 on the Direct or reveal a new F-Zero game in the works. If there is a new F-Zero game it’ll most likely be for the Wii U since it needs a serious booster in sales from what I heard. In any case, please bring the captain back, the game needs to pack a Falcon Punch.

Ganondorf
Another fighter missing from the showcased roster. An unlockable character he shares the same move set as Captain Falcon, though power he is a bit sluggish. It is possible he’ll show up along with Captain Falcon to demonstrate a new move set assigned to him so we don’t have another Heavy Falcon.

MewTwo
Another unlockable character. Will he also have Mega Evolution for his Final Smash? Will he ever come back? We may have a bunch of Pokemon on the roster but a low possibility of seeing him as a fighter, or assist trophy, is better than no possiblity.

Ridley
Many fan wishes for this character to be playable fighter. Sorry folks, he’s a stage boss.
Ridely's Shadow

Final Fantasy Characters
They have their own fighting game so there’s no logical reasoning behind this.

Another Fire Emblem Character
Marth of Fire Emblem has made his appearance in Melee and it seems he’ll be sticking around the series for a long time. But he wasn’t alone when he made his debut, nor was he the only Fire Emblem character in Brawl. So far we had Roy and Ike join the roster, meaing it’s likely that they’ll put in another character from the series in. Who will it be? Will it be Chrom, the Exalt of Ylisse? Or will they go back to the past and give another unit a chance? We had a fiery duo since Melee and we may see one this E3.

More Sonic characters
There are A LOT of Sonic characters, from Genesis to Dreamcast, from anime to Archie. Let’s just stick to Sonic so the nightmare doesn’t happen again.

Solid Snake
An interesting choice to bring into Smash Bros. Will he make another appearance or will he just hide in one of the crates? Well we had Snake Eater remade for the 3DS so perhaps we’ll see him again despite how many Metal Gear games are made for Xbox and PlayStation. Maybe even Hideo Kojima will swing by and announce it.

This is all speculation on what is to come when the Nintendo E3 Direct but let's wait and hope that the news for the new Smash Bros. will be amazing this E3.

As far as having a Nintendo Direct in place for an E3 confrence... I'll cover that when I watch the E3 videos.

If they're hyping F-Zero, it makes no sense to not have the Captain, unless you mean they'll reveal him as playable later along with an announcement for the game.

I do want a next-gen F-Zero and Star Fox.

Sorry, I meant hyping for Super Smash Bros. 4 or reveal him along with a new F-Zero game. I'll do a quick edit. Kind of want to see a new F-Zero game as well but knowing my luck it won't be for the 3DS.

Ok. I figured that's what you meant, but I wasn't sure. 

I still don't have a Wii U or a 3DS, but I want a 3DS and a PS4.

I actually want a PS4 as well. That's still backwards capatible with PS3 games, right? I kind of want to play Persona 5.

I haven't played the games, but I can find posible a character from Golden Sun.

That would be nice. The Golden Sun games were great, with The Lost Age hitting it out of the park. It'll be a long shot but that would be awesome.

I want Ganondorf to be his own separate character, like have him use moves from the Zelda games, like the energy ball attack and the warp thing he does. Why not have him use his swords? That was such a tease in Brawl.

On Pokemon, it seems more likely for them to have Jigglypuff over Mewtwo if they are adding the original cast. Also Ness is still missing but I demand Captain Falcon dammit. But I still am going with the idea my brother said about Falcon and F-Zero because it does make sense. When they announce a new character it's because they recently had a new game.

As for Fire Emblem, I'm crossing my fingers for Tharja. Another female character would be awesome. As for Snake, it seems likely since Kojima said he wants to see Snake return for SSB4.

We don't have a lot of magic users in the roster, do we? It's like Zelda and that's it. Let's hope for a F-Zero game.

Also, I do believe that Ganondorf will premire with Captain Falcon to show off a new move set.

Wait, Koijima said he wanted Snake to enter the next game? Snake Revengance.
