I thank you both for looking at my list, If you are curious, I do have reasoning behind my choices:

Why do I want Snake back?

He fits in Smash Bros. fine, Back when Brawl came out, Snake being in it, in a way was an advertisement for MGS4 which was on PS3. That didn't matter to Sakurai that it wasn't on a Nintendo console and of course it won't matter that it's advertising MGSV either, We did get Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D on the 3DS, The Relationship aspect is from Sakurai and Kojima being friends, and who's the say Kojima didn't go back and request Snake again? Or if Sakurai is being a true friend, More notably, Snake didn't appear in Playstation All Stars, yet he has been on Playstation for many years, clearly an indication, Snake's moveset virtually cannot be taken over, MGS is still huge, especially with Solid V coming out and it's been proven that Sakurai loves playing games on other systems.

Why do I want Ike back and Why I want Chrom in?

Ike still has a strong fanbase and I believe that most Fire Emblem fans (including myself) want Marth, Ike and Chrom in the game, because like Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem: Awakening's Popularity may just give a Third Slot to Chrom, much like the Villager, Chrom has earned his spot.

Why May?

While it's very agreeable to say May doesn't have enough importance to get into Smash, her Importance is actually rising, how? As of right now, Generation 3 has not had any playable characters, Generations 1, 2 and 4 have been represented, and now I think Gen 3 and Gen 5 need to get into the next game, also, A lot of fans are beginning to rally in the hopes of a Ruby and Sapphire Remake, where May is the main female protagonist, However, this is just from my perspective.

Why Black Shadow?

Simply put, F-Zero has only had 1 character since the beginning and Black Shadow would bring more muscle as well as more Villains to Smash.

Why Palutena?

Palutena did appear in Brawl as Pit's Final Smash, so it's safe to say that Palutena may not be in for that Reason, however, Pit can always change, fans didn't find Pit's Final Smash to be too effective, and since Uprising has been released, Pit could easily get a new Final Smash and potentially make Palutena a character, much like Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem, Uprising was a very successful game, and in my opinion, I think Palutena deserves a slot, also because we need more females.

Why Krystal?

Fox, Falco and Wolf have been too similar for too long to let it carry over to the next game, which is where Krystal comes in, It's very likely that Krystal will replace Wolf, but Falco could be on the line too since Krystal and Falco are both Protagonists alongside Fox, 3 Protagonists representing a series? To me, that's a bit odd, If they Cut Falco, Fans wouldn't be very happy, and it's a little strange to have 4 slots to Star Fox when it's been years since a main series release, and sadly, Star Fox 64 3D is just a Remake, but i'll be fine with either choice

I hope my reasoning has given you guys some insight to my choices
