Not everyone who are highly requested would get in, like Waluigi and another few characters.
I guess we will see if they would get in or not.

Well there wasn't a new metroid AT shown off, but a bunch of other things made up for that.
3 more unique characters imo
4 at absolute maximum
I'm thinking this cause of their inconsistency in numbering them. Sometimes they count the echoes and sometimes they don't. "Over 70 characters" works both ways with 3 more unique characters but that would mean only 2 more echo characters, which seems very low

No, but Shadow has been one the most consistently predicted echoes after E3.
Nah, not counting echoes.
Just pure newcomers, which can include semis now, proven by the number system on the website and Isabelle
Guy, you want/expect Heihachi.. Your opinion is null and void.
'Isabelle doesn't like conflict' was the one that got me the most heated.
"Isabelle sits behind a desk all day" was wayyyy too common, I'm actually not surprised at the reaction. I think there's a lot of people who don't play Animal Crossing or haven't played it in a long time because it was very apparent that Isabelle would show up playable in some form or another.
Isabelle was one of the last mascot Nintendo characters. We're getting into true obscurity now.
No, echoes for whatever reason have not been leaked as much as the newcomers.
Dark Samus had SIGNIFICANT amount of hints before her reveal though just from circumstantial evidence, to a point where pretty much everyone here agreed she was a lock
Kapp'n didn't really replace Isabelle.
They are completely different ATs. Nothing is stopping them from adding additional ATs to a series, there isn't some magic quota.
Some characters just won't be fighters or ATs this time around.
Isaac got cut completely.
Little Max's upgrade from AT didn't make a new Punch Out AT.
It's just not a thing.

they always count echoes when they're bragging about the total number, though
They weren't considered echoes at the time. Clones have always been considered newcomers havent they? Ganon and Falco were for example
If I were to foolishly try and figure a general roadmap of what's left for ultimate characters...
- The obligatory pokemon
- Third Party rep (Namco?)
- Third Party rep returns (Square?)
- One more Nintendo character of timely project plan relevance (Chorus Kids/Dixie/Dee/Elma)
- two echoes (Shadow and Ken)
Sakurai is forced into DLC
- Rex
- Spring Man
- Another Nintendo character based on ballot wants/internet ramblings
- Third Party Rep (Ryu Hayabusa damn it!)
- two or three echoes based also on internet ramblings (Octolings, Celica etc)
There's my prediction to be absolutely swatted down by Sakurai logic, why did I even bother?

I don't want him, I'm not even a tekken fan, but a new Namco rep seems like a lock...and who else would it be?
Oh man the hopes for a semi clone Shadow was risen this day.Wait a minute...
We're still getting Shadow. He's even further beyond a hard lock remember. Isabelle doesn't mean we'll get a different Sonic character instead, no. Instead, it means something greater than we ever dared to dream...
Exactly. Some series already had two ATs already. For example, Kat, Ana and Ashley were all in Smash 4.
Agumon to hype up the new Cyber Sleuth game coming to a Switch near you!
Remember how Ashley was just casually confirmed to be an AT?
Same thing could happen to Shadow. I wouldn't call any character a lock until they appear on the Smash Dojo.

That's cool how Toadette has been retconned into the roster.
She was playable since Melee! 2 years before we thought!

I mean it's just splitting hairs here but Isabelle is getting the full newcomer treatment with a trailer and everything, and is categorized as one on the website. All I'm saying is that Smash 4 didn't have any semiclone newcomers. And even though the echo name wasn't official yet, did not treat it's clones to the level of normal newcomers.
I wonder Sakurai is still opposed to putting real guns in the game. It would be a real shame to have half of Shadow's personality be nerfed because of E10+Wait a minute...

At this rate, it feels like Vergeben's Square rep is probably the only thing left to be super hype for. Inceniroar is nearly guaranteed to predictably take up another one of the limited newcomer slots, and now Isabelle has open the door for more semi-clones to get in over 100% unique newcomers.
C'mon Sakurai, do us a favor and knock another character reveal out of the park one last time.

HERE WE GO EVERYONE
So Dante is a DLC and will be announced in November ?
I just remembered how great Captain Toad could've been but he's stuck on New Donk tower.
WHHHHHYYYY?
WHHHHHYYYY?
He definitely will. The fact that he wants every newcomer announced pre launch means he has something left up his sleave.
Still wondering what Square rep it could be.
My thought is that it's Dragon Quest since 11 is supposed to release on Switch. But then again, Sora is in my heart.
To be fair Sakurai also said he didn't ever expect to see Ridley or Daisy included.
