I'm going to assume it will still be Samus but I'll give everyone a try. Sonic and Snake look awesome. I wanna try pokemon trainer too.

Eh, you guys that always want ZSS playable at the start just want to play for the fan service...not true Samus fans! The only ones who have some sort of reasonable complaint are the ones who don't play with items...because it's possible they won't see ZSS at all...but that's their fault for disabling one of the biggest features of Smash Bros.

Luigi if they put him in. Some other ones will probably be Snake, Sonic, and Meta Knight.

Zelda!

Strangely its the only i thing i question about SSBB, the inclusion of ZSS that is. I dont see why we need two samus's...why couldnt there be an option to change like zelda/sheik last time. I think the time would have been better spent introducing a well loved character from another series, reworking a character that was used last time but was a clone character or even bringing in Ridley! :p

I hope no one has said Diddy Kong yet, he looks like he will be awesome.

Anyways, I hate the whole, "Oh, let me pick this character because it looks like I'll be able to pull off sweet combos and spam wavedashing and other crap!"

I'm going to pick Diddy Kong because he looks like he'll have fun moves and can cause a ruckus. I hate this whole "pro" mentality that started with Ken and Marth.

No, you're not good with Marth, now stop being a douche and pick a character you actually like.

Sorry, just needed to get that off my chest.

Anywho, my top 5 in order.

1. Diddy Kong

2. Pokemon Trainer

3. Yoshi

4. Lucas

5. Wario

Peach

I'll play Link 1st. Then snake. Then Samus Aran.

My favorite character hasn't been confirmed yet. I guess I'll see what happens once I beat the single player game or play the game for 20 hours. But if you are talking about characters on the site as of right now, I would have to go with Pikachu or the PoKe'MoN Trainer. Maybe even Meta Knight

hmmm,  tough one, i think Kirby
