Captain Olimar seems like an obvious choice, and yet, what kind of move set would be appropriate for him? I'm sure they can make it work, but it could be difficult.

Diddy Kong and Wario are shoe-ins. Krystal from SFA? I imagine she'd work out well given the possibilities with her staff.

The problem with including characters from Metroid Hunters is that including one, but not the rest, implies that the given hunter is in someway superior or more important than the others, and I think that would be ackward. It is for this same reason that I would be hesitant in including characters from the Golden Sun series.

Still, Metroid is possibly the least represented series in Smash Brothers, so maybe they can throw in Ridley. Then the question arises, how on earth would he control? Recovering isn't wouldn't be very difficult if you can fly.

As far as Link goes, well, his younger self should be portrayed by the WW model (cel-shaded) while the TP model should be implemented for adult Link. Gannondorf should be given a unique move set. I've never understood his connection with . . . Captain Falcon. And speaking of F-Zero, Samurai Goroh would make an interesting addition. Better than Blood Falcon for the simple fact that he'd function as more than a mere clone.

Regardless of who they add (and honestly, hopefully drop), I still maintain that this franchise will move forward through gameplay changes, not just adding more characters.
