I am going to post all my predictions/hopes here (not just limited to characters) for this direct:
My first prediction is hard to explain. I believe one of two things will happen:
1) You will have every previous Smash game included.
OR
2) You will be able to use this complete cast on any previous version of Smash (in other words, the physics for every game are included and you can select, "Melee" and play Melee with this cast).
Travis Touchdown as a playable character.
Virtual Boy as a playable character.
Return of coin launcher.
Information on, "story mode" (hopefully a mode closer to Subspace Emissary).
The return of game demos but using different titles.
Every stage from every game (3DS as well) included.
New Amiibo.
No more Directs after this one for Smash but there will be something like a Dojo for the last three months leading up to release.
A, "test punch" at some point.
