It's kind of odd that Captain Falcon is still the only confirmed character in his franchise in this game.
The idea of Wolf being in Brawl really bugs me for some reason. We don't need another Star Fox character!
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Ahahaha.....oh Snake-u~
Still waiting for Tails confirmed

This game will be so epic. I will get very little sleep come this March....
Final Roster, minus a speculated Star Wolf:
I want this shit now. I can't believe we could have had it 2 months ago.

I hate this game.... no mewtwo, but yeah bring back falco woohoo.....
But hey, there is still room for one more char on the roster .... right?... plz?......;(
Though im really glad about g&w
Lucario could end up being the new mewtwo based on that pic with snake.Originally Posted by darkshadow
Pretty good roster, although I don't know what the fuck to think about R.O.B......probably will be going into my "never play with" list.
Edit: nm I thought lucario would be huge, he's going to be awesome then. Plus no mewtwo makes things better.
R.I.P Captain America.
mewtwo is the only cut i regret

Well, until there's confirmation about that last character, I say Mewtwo is still a possibility.
But sources say it's 90% likely it'll be Wolf. He was posted on a roster list sometime last week along with R.O.B., Toon Link, Lucario, and Ness. All of those have been confirmed except for him.
Personally I'd prefer Mewtwo to Lucario, but I might get used to it.

But Xan, Lucario is all small and blue:
Not big and pink, and as we all know; Pink is gay(or pretty close)
R.I.P Captain America.
Lucario is Furry fodder.
And Mewtwo was purple. And a Goddamn hoss.

More Snake/Lucario antics
10/4/04 - 8/20/07
^^^^^^ That was already posted a while ago, Assertn.
Toon Link vs. Gannondorf
Disappointing thing is that both of them look like clones of Young link and Captain Falcon, respectively. Awesome thing is the level and the music and also the new designs I guess.
EDIT:
Footage from Event matches featuring ROB and Lucario
Yeah, Lucario looks basically like a faster Mewtwo who doesn't float around.

R.I.P Captain America.
utter phail.....
I'm trying reallllllly hard not to be annoyed by Wolf's inclusion.
I think it only seems a little underwhelming because of the way all the new characters were introduced to us. If I had been told that Wolf and Lucario were being introduced to the game way back when it was announced, I wouldn't have even cared. And then if I was told about the 10 new characters, including Snake and Sonic, that were gonna be in it, I would have shorted out.
This way it's just kinda: "OH SHIT! SNAKE! SONIC, WOW....OLIMAR...Lu..cario...Oh, I guess Star Wolf is in this too...?"
I'm happy though. Still can't wait.
Explain? Wolf is a little disappointing, but what more could you want/ask for?
Edit:
Wolf in 4 player Free For All

Considering the popularity of fox/falco, it might encourage a bit more diversification to include another character that handles similarly. However, I hear Wolf's final smash is also the landmaster tank, and that's just wrong.

Personally I'm disappointed with this roster. I don't mind the characters they chose, I don't even mind that theres only 35, what I do care about though is that so many of the characters are too similar to each other, or even clones! If they could only make 35 characters in the time they had, fine, but make it a unique 35, don't put in a stronger but slower version of a certain character.
The 3 Star Fox characters I'm okay with, I'm surprised that Wolf got in over say someone like Krystal since Sakurai mentioned that they would like more female characters, but I don't really mind. What I do care about though is that all three characters are pretty much the same... Why does Falco have the same final smash as Fox? Didn't he say he hated the Land Master? And if Wolf's final smash is indeed yet another Land Master, thats just plain laziness on Sakurai's part.
Toon Link is the pretty much the same as Young Link in Melee? Why couldn't they make him a new character with Wind Waker items such as the Skull Hammer or the Deku Leaf? And Gannondorf still being a clone of Captain Falcon? Jesus, at least let him use his sword.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm still very excited to get this game, you got online play, a very good looking adventure mode, better graphics, nice looking levels and a whole lot of neat and fun additions. And although there are still some interesting characters added to the roster such as Sonic, Snake, Meta Knight and a few others, I can't help but feel disappointed from what I originally expected.

There's something fundamentally wrong about complaining about this number. I think once you start playing through the game with each and every one of these guys, you'll realize just how large that number is. This isn't M.U.G.E.N., any roster higher than 40 is just unrealistic. In any case, there are 36 characters since Zero Suit Samus can be selected from the selection screen by holding R. This was recently confirmed.
Besides that, I do understand your gripe about the clones. But out of the 36, only 6 are "clones". That's 30 unique characters, 10 of which are new additions. And even the word "clone" is a loose term since the characters share fundamental similarities, and little beyond that (barring Fox's trio).
36 characters
26 old guys - perfectly acceptable in Melee
10 new additions - including Sonic and Snake
6 clones - 4 of which are returning from Melee; so it's hardly unexpected
Once you stop saying "only" this and that, the roster is pretty fucking beefy, and I can't see much wrong with it. Wolf and Toon Link were a bit of a letdown, but again, it's all in how the information was presented to us.

Well, I admit I phrased that pretty poorly, 36 in fact is a very large roster for a fighting game, but I was expecting around 35 clone free characters.
Now I'm not saying the roster is bad, not at all, thinking about it now my expectations may have just been unrealistic from the getgo, I may have just been excited by seeing the majority of the characters released fairly early, and expected a lot more new characters in the game.
However, Toon Link, Gannondorf and Wolf, I think those 3 are my biggest disappointments. In fact, if all 3 of those characters had a unique move set, I think I would like this roster, and thinking about that, I'm probably just overreacting about this if thats all it would take to change my opinion.
Overall I still am a little disappointed about the roster, but rethinking it, it's not as bad as I first thought, and like most games, I should reserve my judgment until I actually play it.
