Well it's weird for me to write this as I'm not only anti-DLC, but think the character roster is already far too bloated now as it is. But anyway, maybe I'll say in my ideal scenario these 5 replace 5 characters who I don't think should be in there to begin with:

Dixie Kong
Cranky Kong
Samurai Goroh
Toadette
KK Slider (guitar smash!)

Well hey, I'm over here asking for Ralsei from deltarune ("sequel" to Undertale), ya gotta be more optimistic then that!

@Kinoen I mean, I still think Undertale/Deltarune has a fairly large chance of making it in with a rep if they add any DLC ATs. A spirit seems incredibly likely. But as for right now, the chance for any indie rep getting in is slim to none as a character.

Do you think that because of Shovel Knight? I mean, it makes sense, because SK is the supposed face of Indies, but when compared to UT and now DR, character and story wise, it doesn't stack up, IMO. Not to mention how both Toby Fox and Sakurai are very random developers and that DR talks about Smash Bros. Just like how people over speculate everything Sakurai says and does, I'm doing that with Toby and assuming that means UT, DR or both will be getting a rep. in Smash as a playable character. But thats just me xD

I know they're not supposed to have movie characters, but if they ever change their minds I would want to the see the predator and Neo from Matrix.

@Kinoen I definitely agree with you that that dialogue suggests Undertale content will be added. I just don't believe that content will be a playable character. Shantae did the same thing after all, and it turned out to be a spirit. Same thing with Rodin as an AT getting dialogue foreshadowing it. All the foreshadowing dialogue so far hasn't been characters so...

1. Chibi-Robo
It feels like he was so close to be a fighter, with him being a Mii costume and then shown as Mario's main spirit. I hope he still has a chance. He should have been in the main roster since Brawl imo, but alas here we are still hoping.

2. Elma
Revealing Rex with Mythra or even her third form would be a spoiler, and I don't think Sakurai wants to spoil new games (he left out spoilers before when the games he took a character from were still new). Rex&Pyra would be a neat fit for the next Smash game, along with other new characters like Spring Man, Octoling, and Pauline, and the denied ones (Waluigi, Isaac, Krystal, Shadow, and Bomberman). Anyway, I hope they don't skip Xenoblade X in favour of Xenoblade 2.

3. Saki Amamiya from Sin & Punishment
So much hope because I haven't seen the Assist Trophy yet. He was the fighter I always dreamt of being playable - since Smash 64.

4. I leave it to you, and I hope there will be some pleasant surprises.
Personally I prefer Nintendo characters that don't have fighter representation: Zael&Calysta from The Last Story, Andy from Advance Wars, Oceana Louvier from Endless Ocean, Aeron&Elena from Pandora's Tower, Jumpin Jim Rivers from Excitebike 64 (I prefer to have a named character from the series instead of just the generic Excitebiker guy), Wheels or Turbine from Tetrisphere, etc.

5. At least one 3rd Party Character
I hope it's someone like Travis Touchdown, Professor Layton, Phoenix Wright, or Bub&Bob (Bubble Bobble). As for Banjo-Kazooie, he could have been in there since Smash 64 (like Saki Amamiya), and therefore (out of the other big 3rd party platformer icons Rayman, Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro) I'd like to see him the most, though Rayman's chances are higher than ever now. Crash and Sypro are meh and should be in an Playstation All-Star fighter (behind Ratchet&Clank and Jak&Dexter). Their games were never on the same quality level as Mario and Banjo, or even Rayman. Anyway, similar to getting Cloud Strife into Smash and Final Fantasy VII releasing on Switch soon: If we get Banjo-Kazooie as a fighter, I hope we get a Banjo-Kazooie&Tooie game/remake/port on a Nintendo console in 3-4 years as well. That being said, everything points towards Heihachi from Tekken.

Fair point, but to my knowledge, UT/DR has one thing those other games don't have (again, to my knowledge); Self aware characters. I still don't think Sans would be a good pick for a playable character, because it wouldn't be true to his character, but knowing him from UT, it wouldn't surprise me seeing him in Smash, because of his short-cuts and deciding he wanted to be in another game for a change of pace. With DR, we now have an extra 2, maybe 3, characters who are also self aware.

It is a shame that Shantae didn't get in, but, no disrespect, is Shantae more popular than UT/DR?
I didn't hear anything about Rodin, but seeing as he already has a playable character representing the game he's from, him getting in as an AT is not bad.

1. JOKER from Persona 5

Did anyone see this one coming?

I never played the Persona / Shin Megami Tensei games. They never appeared on Nintendo home consoles but now Shin Megami Tensei V is in development for Switch which I'm planning to play.

Being the first rep from ATLUS, it shows that Nintendo is open to have more crossover characters from quality games, and surprising ones at that.

Smash did crossovers with the biggest 3rd parties first: SEGA and KONAMI in Brawl, followed by CAPCOM, BANDAI NAMCO, and SQUARE ENIX (in Smash4), and now it's time for ATLUS to shine.

Who could be next? Popular Japanese 3rd parties with good ties to Nintendo and plenty of great characters include SNK, NIS America, KOEI TECMO, Treasure, LEVEL-5, and Grasshopper Manufacture.

@Ryu_Niiyama I would love Mórag in Smash, but this seems impossible. If anyone Rex, Pyra/Mythra etc.

Ryu_Niiyama

@bixente I think Mythra is getting in (not Rex or Pyra) due to the costume change. Which I am ok with. At this point though I feel like it will be crossovers so I am kinda hoping for a Teken or a VF rep.

Not my favourites as such, but I thought it was curious Nintendo UK held a competition between the managers of Sega UK, Capcom UK, Konami UK, Namco UK, and Square UK.

5 Japanese partner companies that Nintendo values, 5 spaces for DLC characters.

Sega already has one of them....

Isn't it obvious that Falco Lombardi is actually a parrot?

@MrGawain That's mean a lot more if those weren't the 5 (or 6 counting Nintendo) companies who were already connected via Smash. It's possible each one will get one DLC character (with Pirhanha as Nintendo's) but it's equally possible it's a coincidence. I'd like to think all the Ubisoft spirits mean that we'll be getting a Ubisoft rep as part of the DLC... namely Rayman. Squeenix seems a shoo-in as a third thanks to the leaks, and Bandai-Namco deserves another character, whoever it is.

Konami on the other hand... who would even be their fourth rep? Bomberman is an assist after all, and I can't name another series of there's that's big enough. Contra? Silent Hill? Suikoden? None of those seem to make sense.

Anyways as for my top 5? Probably something like:

1. Adeleine
2. Isaac
3. Chibi Robo
4. Wonder Red
5. Dillon
