if you don't really care about it, then don't even open this page.
guess what? a new update has just been released! yep, i'm talking about this thing.
this is the new roster! of course, there are still 5 more dlc characters on the way that i have yet to reveal.
"This game has 101 characters (when counting each Mii Fighter class as a stand-alone character) to choose from, 43 more than Smash 4, 63 more than Brawl, 75 more than Melee, and 89 more than Smash 64.
The game has 58 veteran fighters and 43 newcomers (ironically enough, the same as the difference of the characters in Smash 4. In fact, almost all veterans included here have appeared in that game, with Wolf "taking the place" of Duck Hunt.)
The game has 29 unlockable fighters, 55 starters, and 18 DLCs.
White means "Starting veteran", red means "Unlockable veteran", gold means "Starting newcomer" and silver means "Unlockable newcomer".
Not all characters of this game have been announced before the game's release. Newcomer unlockable fighters weren't revealed at all to make the game "more surprising", as stated by Sakurai. The only exception was Geno."
