Huh? Not sure I get what you're asking..

Do you mean in the next game it'd be too much to have 70+ characters available at the start, or that 70+ characters in total is too much?

I am making the logical and fair conclusion that millions of Smash Bros fans are going to expect that everything return. I am betting that the next Smash Bros will be starting from scratch. Ultimate was a end to an era.
