Who shouldn't be in?

[Red]

no more pokemon
no miis
no AC characters
and I agree no FF characters.
no mario filler characters

You actually think filler characters could get in?  Sorry, but there is a Newcomer for AC said by Sakurai himself in an interview in Los Angeles.  Bowser Jr. deserves to be in!!!

Link please.

Tom Nook should NOT be in!

Tom Nook should NOT be in!

I kinda agree. The Crosser would be much better.

[Cornwad]

Nobody from red steel please...and please nothing from mario party games

Too late for that, the dice block is a sticker.

I don't have a link to the interview but someone did say that Sakurai mentioned it.  Here's the site.  Also, three other veterans were revealed during the event in LA.  http://www.nintendopedia.org/index.php?title=Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl#Confirmed_Characters
Keep scrolling down to the confirmed characters.  It gives drief info about the interview.  For whatever reason the info didn't show up when I loaded the page for the second time.  But you can give it a try.
