No, no, they don't reveal characters as they just finish them. Ike's core elements were probably finished for months now, it's just that they slow information to trickle to keep interest burning.
Since the 3DS version is coming out very soon- Within the next three months, though most likely the next two- Reggie would be very difficult to implement, to the point of drawing effort away from most other aspects of the game to get him finished in time.

Don't even think about it like that. The final roster was probably made before any footage was shown, but they've likely only revealed a portion of said roster.

Lampshade Hanging: It's a lifestyle.But fan petitions are the reason that Mario Party DS even exists and why Mega Man got in this installment of SSB.
Do you know how tempted I am to scream "fuck off" right now? Because I am.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerI think it's safe to assume that all of the original 12 and all of the Melee vets who survived to Brawl will be returning (For the curious, this means Ness, Jigglypuff, Captain Falcon, Ganondorf, Falco, Mr. Game & Watch, and Ice Climbers). Heck, most of the unrevealed Brawl newcomers seem pretty safe too. The only person whose return I'm sorta nervous about (Besides the pretty-much-deconfirmed Pokemon Trainer) is Snake, since he's third-party and you'd think they'd have revealed him by now. I can't see them dropping Lucas or Wolf despite their semi-clone status, since MOTHER only has two reps anyway and Wolf is unique enough to stand out.
You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!I think G&W, as well as Wario (...and Meta Knight) are safe, anyways.
Ta-da!
◊ Long before last year's reveal of Smash, Sakurai tweeted this little whiteboard drawing someone at the office (maybe even him?) doodled.
It certainly looks like Sakurai's style- His art is very rounded.
The image also features Crazy Hand in addition to Wario, Meta Knight and Mr. Game & Watch on the list of currently missing characters. The fact that Wario's W icon was shown on the Assist Trophy showcase during the Smash Bros. Direct makes the odds even better for Wario.
I sure said that!K. Rool would be awesome! Provided they keep something closer to his Country designs than the all-fat one from Mario Sluggers and the like.
I imagine him being a heavyweight that fights with a lot of brute punching (no martial arts or fighting techniques! just hitting stuff really, REALLY hard) and a couple of convoluted contraptions, such as the blunderbuss or even mechanical Klaptraps.
🏳️⚧️she/her | Vio Rhyse AlberiaHe has potential. His crown throw from Donkey Kong Country, his boxing moves from Donkey Kong 64, his blunderbuss from Donkey Kong Country 2, his helibackpack from Donkey Kong Country 3, etc..

Oh, it's way too late to do that.
I sure said that!
