In case anyone's interested, Brain Scratch Commentaries said they'll be doing a stream after the Direct is over, and I assume they'll be discussing about the Direct on it.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.The same guy who allegedly leaked Wii Fit Trainer, Little Mac, Pac-Man, ect. has now said that Shulk, Palutena, Chrom, the Chorus Men from Rhythm Heaven, and "Pokemon from Pokemon X and Y"
will be playable.
I'd be cool with all of them, but I'll be pissed if "Pokemon from Pokemon X and Y" is playable but not Mewtwo.

...Well, if that does happen to turn out to be accurate, I guess I'd be okay with that roster...I'd still much rather have someone else representing Fire Emblem and I'd be quite disappointed to see no Golden Sun character, but other than that it's interesting enough.
Welcome to th:|Palutena and Chrom are both likely, and I'd say Palutena is almost a shoe-in. Shulk has decent odds. Rhythm Heaven is possible. Pokemon is such a mess that I won't bother predicting beyond Jigglypuff.
Is the Direct being streamed anywhere other than the main site? It's better to have multiple open if one starts to lag.
Roy was actually supposed to be in Brawl. We have enough finished character data to prove that. So was Mewtwo and probably some others(Dixie also directly confirmed in the past). There was no real pattern ultimately to be found. It just looks that way without knowing any of the data.
Pokemon looks like it switched out anyone not named Pikachu and Jigglypuff for exactly two new guys. SSB 4 already broke this streak.

Shadow?Roy was a clone who nobody particularly cares about in terms of his character in Fire Emblem itself, so it was understandable to cut him.
Ike is a quite popular Lord who is distinctive from all of the others in several ways, and has a unique moveset in Smash Bros. I see no reason to cut him. I really dislike the idea of always replacing the second FE rep just because they're "no longer relevant".

Welcome to th:|Okay, so if my conversion skills are correct, this starts in just under 50 minutes. Did I screw up?

I'll be uploaded in full to Nintendo's YouTube channel in fairly short order so you could watch it there instead and be all caught up before posting here.
