But if they add Wolf Link you won't get Amaterasu  

1. Wolf Link wouldn't really be another "variant" of Link, though. It'd have to be Adult Link from Ocarina of Time.
2. I don't think they'd put Wolf Link in without Midna, and Midna is an assist trophy.
3. I'm not getting Amaterasu either way.

Heh, I was joking  

But ... Amaterasu would be one of the best third party characters for Smash. Shame she won't be in.
