@Bunkerneath You're thinking of a different Isaac. The Isaac @GoldenGamer88 is talking about is the Golden Sun character which was an assist trophy in Brawl, not the indie character.
Isabelle doesn't do much for me. I don't play Animal Crossing, so my excitement isn't that big. But if people wanted her (and apparently she's EXTREMELY popular), then people want her. I always wrote her off as some random weird character like the chorus kids from Rhythm Heaven, but I guess I was wrong.

I reveled in the disappointment from the mediocre nintendo direct so much that I forgot to remind myself that this game exists. So damn excited to play richter and chrom.
He's a Playstation icon, isn't he? At least he was born on Playstation around the time Nintendo devastated his silly debut with Super Mario 64. At the time it seemed Playstation fans were blind to the huge quality difference. 20 years later they still are. I have a friend who loves Crash. He got his Switch game and played the Crash Bandicoot games on Wii. But I think the games are mediocre at best. I think Spyro is the better Activision platformer and Spyro/Skylanders has actually a better chance of representation with Donkey Kong and Bowser being playable in Skylanders SuperCharged for Wii U and even having their own Skylanders amiibo. However, if Sakurai wants a Western 3D-Platformer icon to be added to the roster, both Rayman and Banjo-Kazooie deserve it more than Crash and Spyro. Banjo-Kazooie is one of the highest voted characters on different polls (and one of the best 3D platformers ever made), and Ubisoft did more for Nintendo with recent crossovers such as Mario+Rabbids and Starlink and their loyalty over the last decade.
2. Sora
I don't like Disney games, apart from the SNES classics made by Capcom. I like JRPGs but I don't like crossovers with western characters. And most importantly I don't like Sora as a character just from a visual standpoint. Isn't Sakurai's company called Sora as well? Wouldn't that confuse people? I never played Kingdom Hearts and I never will. The last Disney game I played was Mickey Epic on Wii, and I gave up halfway through out of boredom.
3. Goku / Shrek / anyone else that's not originated in a videogame
Let's just never mention them again.
4. Sans / Hollow Knight / other very recent popular indie game characters
Shovel Knight is the most popular indie character at the moment, and he surprisingly made it as an Assist Trophy. I can see Shantae also being an Assist Trophy, along with CommanderVideo, but that's it.
5. Paper Mario / Toon Zelda / other underwhelming Nintendo reps
People's only reason is that there's also 3 Link's and that's a stupid reason to have 3 Mario's as well. Mario is already represented. If you know Mario then you know Paper Mario, easy as that, he doesn't need double and triple confirmation. I love the Paper Mario games, but that doesn't mean Paper Mario needs to be in Smash. I also think a Paper Mario amiibo would be rubbish. I'd rather have First Party Nintendo franchises that are not represented at all: Isa / Saki / Kachi (Sin And Punishment), Chibi-Robo, Zael (The Last Story), Aeron (Pandora's Tower), Kyle Hyde (Hotel Dusk), Ricky Winterborn (Wave Race & 1080°), Katherine (Endless Ocean), Jim Rivers / Nigel York (Excitebike), Ashley Mizuki Robbins (Another Code), Turbine (Tetrisphere), Isaac (Golden Sun), Andy (Advance Wars), Takamaru (The Mysterious Murasame Castle), Foreman Spike (Wrecking Crew, Hyper Golf), Mike (StarTropics), Bubbles (Clu Clu Land), Dillon (Dillon's Rolling Western), Mallo (Pullblox), Chorus Kids / Karate Joe (Rhythm Heaven), Alexandra Roivas (Eternal Darkness), John Raimi (Geist), Professor Layton, etc. etc. If we really need another Mario rep what about better popular ones like Toad/Toadette, Pauline, Waluigi, Kamek, and Shy Guy? I know some of them are deconfirmed but I'd put them along with King Boo, Petey Piranha, Birdo, Paratroopa, and more, above Paper Mario.
Guess I'll throw my wish list on here, because I dunno.
Very Likely
Skull Kid - It's happening, deal with it. lol
Geno - Slightly less likely than Skull Kid, but I feel it's finally happening.
MAYBE...
Viridi - With Echo fighters being a thing now, I get the feeling that Viridi could show up as Palutena's Echo Fighter.
Palico - Rathalos showing up as a boss AND Assist Trophy, Ancestral Steppe as a stage...Something tells me a playable fighter is happening, I can't really see a generic Hunter being a choice. With Generations Ultimate/XX, they have a lot of moves to work with. Who knows, maybe Cha-Cha/Kayamba could appear as Echoes/alts. If it does happen, the Final Smash better be a move that launches the opponents into the Jungle and have Nargacuga take a swipe at them. lol
Not Gonna Happen But I Want Them In Anyways Because Screw You
Sailor Moon (with another being an echo and everyone else as an alt) - ....Ummmm...I uh...like Sailor Moon...

Keep it PG-13-ish.
Probably both are getting in, because Shadow isn't an Assist Trophy anymore.
I think Geno is happening because Square being involved in this series now.
If we're talking wishlists, I basically have no one left who might actually get added outside of Isaac and Dixie.
The rest are Captain Toad & Toadette, Monita, Min-Min, Chibi-Robo, Tabuu, Vivian, Poochey, Captain Syrup, Prince Sidon, Grovyle, Katt Monroe, Porky, Jodi Summers, Lyn, Pyrrhon, Sharla/Elma, anyone from Bayonetta basically, Wonder Red, Dillon, Jill (Drill Dozer), John Raimi, Mike Jones, Rayman, Banjo & Kazooie and Spyro. So yeah, not gonna happen for any of them most likely.
@ReaderRagfish Absolutely harmless at worst and hilarious at best. Harmless because you can just turn off items that annoy you (for me that's Gust Bellows) or everything, hilarious because some items are just too fun to use (like bumpers).
That said, I like to play without items if it's 1 on 1. But if it's in a party setting with 3+ people, items are going to be on all the time.

I like my battles very chaotic, so I turn everything off EXCEPT Pokeballs, Assist Trophies, Blue Shells, Galaga Boss (I think that's the name), Smash Balls, and containers of any kind.

Roy (arguable as he appears at the end of FE7 under special conditions) and Lucas are the only Smash characters now without a main game in the west on Nintendo systems. It's crazy how FFVII (one of the definitive PS1 games) came to Nintendo systems in the west before FE6 and Mother 3.
I'm quite surprised that we haven't at least received a direct port of Binding Blade just yet; I know it came first, but I played FE7/Blazing Blade not too terribly long ago and was told that its ending harkens back to events in FE6.
Also...I'm still a Mother 3 campaigner.
Currently playing: Pokemon Scarlet - The Indigo Disk, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury (Switch)
I'm not going to say much about this beautiful beast, but there is something way more important at stake: check out this tweet and spread the word as much as possible. I tried to contact the NintendoLife staff, and even retweeted the tweet to Nintendo themselves, but to which avail remains to be seen.
And it's not like time is something the kid seems to have, sadly. The young lad might pass away before the game releases; I say he deserves to spend his last few months smashing as he wishes to do.
I don't quite have lots o' loot, because I'm from the Boot.
