So you are calling these new characters irrelevant because no one recognizes them?

Let's think about this for a second. Earthbound didn't gain popularity until later in it's life. (Can't present decent sales figures because VGChartz doesn't have them) Yet we still got ness, and people loved him. 

The thing is, people may not recognize these characters now, but they will recognize them later, and they will love playing as them. That's literally how all fire emblem characters are. You are upset because you don't have any personal gain because all you love is zelda. You need to open your mind and put it into perspective. Smash Bros is a huge marketing strategy.

No?

I liked to play as Ness despite not knowing him. Or as Kirby.

Playing as these two new characters is like playing as Ike or Marth. If you are going to brought unknown characters at least make them different. For example Ice Climbers.

Thank you for helping my argument @bolded

...Dude, have you even seen the trailer? Sure Lucina is a lot like Marth, but Robin is nothing like the two. He could be a unique character in his own right.
