Characters in the next SSB

Post suggestions and stuff here. I couldn't find any topic like this, so I made one (duh).
I think the characters who have the greatest chance of being removed are Sonic, Snake and Toon Link.
 
Those three would never be removed... but then again; that's my opinion. ::)

I have a real good feeling that Mega Man would be in. Either Cloud Strife (no; DP didn't be hire me to say that) or Simon Belmont would probably be in.

MegaMario's right. Sakurai and Hideo Kojima are great friends, so Snake won't be removed. He's also a high tier character. Removing Sonic would be a big mistake on Sakurai's part as Sonic v. Mario was a huge gimmick for Brawl. Toon Link is actually much better than Link himself, though he is the most clone-ish character in the game.

Mega Man has a chance, but Square Enix is very stingy with how they use thier characters, so no Cloud and Castlevania, while very popular, doesn't have the biggest fan base ever. I guess he could be the wtf character.
 
Ridley's rather likely. Metroid is a very important series (definitely more important than Star Fox or Earthbound, both of which have more reps), yet it only has one character (2 if you count Zero Suit). And who better to be the new Metroid character than her archnemesis? Before you complain that he's too big, remember that Olimar was the size of a quarter in Pikmin, so why can't Ridley be scaled down? He wasn't much bigger than Samus in the Melee intro, right?

Oh, and Castlevania is owned by Konami, same company that owns Snake. So there's a chance, but it's unlikely. Later, I'll make a post about the most likely newcomers for each group (The retro and third-party characters count as one each, as I don't see more than one character from Metal Gear or Ice Climber)

Oh. Scratch that then.
 
Like I've said all over every SSB topic here, L is a distinct possibility.

Hm. And so is :eekdance:, I presume.

Toon link, maybe. But Sonic and Snake (especially Sonic) will return. Wait, heck, there isn't going to be another SSB, so nobody's returning! :P

Says who, Mr Double Post(j/k)? There might come another one, but it will be a huge challenge for Sakurai.
