While I still think playable Ridley could work, I can understand all the points against him. Let's just agree to disagree and move on.

I'm surprised there wasn't at least an alternate costume for Dark Samus. There was "Dark Link", "Dixie" Diddy Kong, "Wario" Mario, "Waluigi" Luigi, and a bunch more 'cameo' type color swaps; And Dark Samus 'starred' in two recent games (three if you count its role as Metroid Prime)

Well, we do have Dark Suit Samus from "Corruption". And don't forget Dark Toon Link.

Samus doesn't get a Dark Suit in Corruption. I think you mean the Phazon Suit from MP1, black and gray with a red visor and red details.

Not really, Dark Samus is portrayed with black or blue armor and a light blue visor and light blue details. She also isn't exactly like Samus:

Many of Dark Samus's abilities are similar to Samus's, though some abilities are not shared between the two. Her basic beam fires a scattered burst of Phazon, she may charge this to fire a sustained beam of Phazon. Dark Samus can fire a beam that can encase her target in Phazon, similar to the Ice Beam. She has a form of the Boost Ball that she can allow her to boost far longer than Samus is capable of doing. She can generate a shield that is impervious to all attacks, save blasts of Phazon; she will often use this when Samus fires Missiles at her. She also can become invisible.

After her defeats on Aether, Dark Samus gained ever more abilities, some absorbed from the Phazon-corrupted Hunters that Samus defeated. She is capable of generating Echoes of herself that may attack while Dark Samus absorbs energy to heal herself. She and one of the Echoes can simultaneously fire a sustained beam while spinning. She may also spin without firing a beam. Dark Samus is also capable of creating large pillars of ice and generate shock waves.

From the Metroid Wiki.

If they do make a fourth game, which is likely, and I hope that they do, I would love to see these characters.

MegaMan
(His Final Smash could be when he combines with Rush to fly around and shoot his fists)

Simon Belmont
(Final Smash- "What a horrible night to have a curse")

Ephraim (From Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones, but not to replace Ike or Marth)
(Final Smash- Maybe he could call a bunch of soldiers to charge across the screen)

Animal Crossing boy/girl (Maybe use alternate costumes for choosing the gender. I'd say they would actually be a pretty good addition, likely using the tools you can purchase in the games to fight)
(Final Smash- Maybe have the bus come and run over enemies? I'm not sure about this one yet.)

Any pokemon that's not Jigglypuff (Maybe switch up the trainer's pokemon too. At least have a different order, like Bulbasaur-Charmeleon-Blastoise)
(Final Smash- Hyper beam, or something like that)

I don't see any kind of Transformer being added into Smash Bros, because they really aren't video game characters.

Assist trophies-
Protoman or Bass
Tails, or Knuckles
Goron, Gerudo, or Zora
Dry Bones

Character adjustments-
I really don't have any complaints other than maybe bring Mewto back instead of Lucario, and make Marth a little stronger (like he was in melee).

They could put Scott Pilgrim in. Maybe Ramona, Gideon, and one of the Evil Exes too. With the new Video Game, they could make it work. What do you think?

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game isn't even available on Nintendo consoles.

JetOptimus23's signature makes me think they should put Bub and Bob from Bubble Bobble in Smash Bros.

And in doing research, it would seem they came out with a Bubble Bobble Plus on the Wii(to be honest, I haven't been keeping up with Wiiware too much), so the companies have some relationship currently.

So yeah, Bub and Bob for Smash 4!!

I second that!

Show of hands, who here was surprised when MegaMan wasn't in Brawl? When they said there would be three third-party characters, I think it's a safe bet that we were all expecting MegaMan. I mean, nearly all of his games have been on Nintendo consoles, and Capcom loves crossovers.

*raises hand*
That was the only the that disappointed me about it.

I got it!

Mickey Mouse from Epic Mickey. It's only on the Wii, and would be perfect for SSB4. Whst do you guys think?

They'd have to go through Disney first, and that's no easy feat. Square can't even use characters from Kingdom Hearts like Sora or Riku in Dissidia without going through Disney first, because they're technically Disney characters. In any case, Mickey doesn't qualify. Every character started as a video game character (or in ROB's case, a video game accessory) but Mickey was a cartoon character decades before video games even existed.

Yeah, I don't see ANY character who isn't actually from a video game series that regularly appears on nintendo consoles. Sora would be likelier due to the fact that he mainly appears in games, plus a few Kingdom Hearts games were on the GBA/DS, but I really wouldn't want to see him join anyway, so I'm kinda glad it would be hard to get ahold of him. Another character to add might be King K. Rool from the Donkey Kong games.
