My guess on the five DLC characters:

- XBC2 character: It's clear Sakurai wants a character from this game in Ultimate even though they haven't started any work on the DLC I'm pretty sure someone from the game will be in Ultimate.

- Virtua Fighter Character: Akira made it into ultimate as the representative for the series that was the first 3D fighter but only as an AT I can see someone from the series being picked out as a main character.

- Fire Emblem Three Houses Main Character: Really you don't think this will happen?

- Jin (Tekken): SEGA got Akira into the game I'm sure Namco could do the same with their iconic series as well.

- Dante (DMC): A bit hopeful tbh but it makes sense to go along with Bayonetta.

Not so bold prediction: The will be another character pass after this one.

Ultra Hopeful: Some SNK representation.

I expect the same thing. If this Smash is expected to be supported, bought, and played over the next 3-5 years, I fully expect the DLC to continue for as long as it is profitable. Nintendo finally seems to be (reluctantly) joining the modern age and aren't spamming us with a new smash game every year so this works for me. 

I'd also be okay with an expansion pass for MarioKart 8 Deluxe. That's the best mariokart game but I'd send em another 30 bucks for another 16 tracks or something
