I highly doubt it. Sakurai is trying to please as many brawl players as possible with the roster, so don't expect a lot new characters. Most of the new additions will be from successful Wii games and some 3DS games because of the handheld version. I don't think the wii u will be well represented in this game.

 

 

well there are 39 characters in brawl (40 if you want to count mewtwo since many fans anticipate his return). 22 are returning (24 if the unconfirmed Sheik/Zero Suit count). That leaves 15 left,  i can see that sakarai cuts about half of those.

Returning Veterans: Yoshi + Jigglypuff + Metaknight + Diddy Kong + Ganondorf + *Mewtwo + Falco + C. Falcon + Ness + Ice Climbers + Mr G+W

Not Returning: Ike + Snake + Squirtle + Ivysaur + Charizard + Wolf + R.O.B +  Lucas

 

 

Veterans = 35 characters 

Newcomers= 9 (*4 confirmed) 

Total 44 characters with some characters doing alt skin!

I can see Dixie Kong+Little Mac+Chrom+Paletina in the game! 

Why would R.O.B not come back?  This is just like when people thought game and watch would be cut for Brawl.

Your right on that but Mr Game+Watch>>>R.O.B

R.O.B isnt a game character but an accessory and only of that to US (i might be wrong on that o.O)

That said, he be cool to stay in especially with a unique moveset but if we want new characters we have to let go of a couple unfortunately. If it were up to me i keep them all. I play with Wolf alot but i kno not to expect him at all :(

R.O.B is an extremly important part of Nintendo's history.  Extremly.  He was the trojan horse Nintendo used to sneak the NES into homes after the video game crash of the 80s.  He was, by the way, an international item, not just American... and he was playable in Mario Kart before Smash.  He has had cameos in Pikmin, F-Zero, Kirby, Star Tropics, and Rob 64 in Star Fox was named after him.

He has a unique moveset and Sakurai has said he wants uniqueness to be a focus of this game, and that he wants to include as many characters as possible.  0% chance he is cut, like I said, people said this same exact thing about Game and Watch before Brawl came out.

I think people are overestimating cuts, I think we will only see 2-3 cuts from Brawl, with a small chance we see no cuts.

To stay on Topic:  I'ld like to have Dixie as her own character, and I think DK deserves 3 reps.
