User blog:PSI Seven/Smash 5 predictions because I'm unoriginal

So, how about the Direct huh? It looks like Nintendo really does listen to their fans. So, what could the future hold? Well...

Characters
Since Inklings were a popular request back in Smash 4's time, it seems likely that we may get a few other characters that were heavily requested. King K. Rool probably has a good chance of getting in. Geno probably doesn't, because as cool as he is, he only appeared in one game, a very old one. As for Shovel Knight, I'm on the fence. On one hand he's very popular, and Nintendo doesn't give the rights to make not one, but four amiibos to just any third party company. On the other hand, Shovel Knight is a third party character. But then again, Cloud got in so who knows? ¯\_ ツ _/¯ Riley, unfortunately won't get in because of the whole (in an exaggerated tone) "Ridley is too big" argument. Plus, if this is a port of Smash 4, Ridley would already be in Pyrosphere. Bandana Dee would probably get in due to the fact that Sakurai, well, you know, MADE the Kirby series. I think Toad has a great chance, as he was a popular request for a long time now.

As for the veterans, Ice Climbers could get in since the only reason they weren't in Smash 4 is because the 3DS was to weak to handle them. I personally hope that Samus-turing-into-Zero-Suit-Samus and Zelda-turning-into-Sheik returns because, in my opinion, made those characters really unique. Most of the Smash 4 characters will probably return, but I wouldn't mind if they dropped Rosalina (mainly because she's not a major Mario character), Dr. Mario (because clones), and/or one of the six-ish Fire Emblem characters (not a huge FE fan).

Game Modes
Most of Smash 4's game modes will probably return, aside from maybe Smash Tour or maaaaybe Special Orders. Chances are we might get a change to Classic Mode. Maybe it will be played differently that the Wii U version, something new entirely or more similar to the layout seen in 64-Brawl. I completely dismiss the possibility of something new being added to Master Core. A story mode would be great, but that's probably too high of an expectation.

Other
The Inkling's final smash would probably be either the Kraken or the Sting Ray. We're either getting a port, or a whole new game. Either way, we'd probably get several stages from both the Wii U and the 3DS version. We're probably not going to keep all of Smash 4's items, simply because there's so many.

Well, thoughts?
