If I was a bettin' man,
In response to this post that some people might have missed, the following list is my best guess for Brawl characters. Information is sketchy at best; I have heard reports of characters like Game & Watch and Ice Climbers being removed, along with clones like Palco, Pichu and Dr. Mario. Seemingly contradicting this is a report of a 40 character roster. At any rate, the following list is likely quite wrong and hopefully very incomplete. Characters already confirmed are not included:
Bowser (better)
Zelda/Shiek (nerfed)
Jigglypuff
Ganondorf (plays differently)
Captain Falcon
A Fire Emblem sword fighter
Peach
Donkey Kong
Yoshi
Ness
Luigi (plays differently)
Sonic (I had to)
Megaman (Probably not, but we already have a Konami character and a Sega one)
Falco (plays differently)
A Belmont (probably Simon, though again, probably not)
Game & Watch
Mewtwo
Ice Climbers
Ridley
Alex (River City Ransom)
King Dedede
Ryu
A Black Mage
If they do go the clone route again (all unlockable):
Dr. Mario
Raiden
Another Fire Emblem sword fighter
Tails (only if Sonic is there)
Knuckles (only if Sonic is there)
Shadow (only if Sonic...I'm gonna lose some points guessing all these Sonic characters)
Waluigi
Daisy
Pichu (better)
Ryan (only if Alex is there)
Ken (only if Ryu is there)
Characters I wish would be there but I don't think will be (don't count this):
Master/Crazy Hand (doesn't jive with the mechanics)
Ganon
Majora's Wrath (too obscure)
Soma Cruz (not THE Castlevania character)
Viewtiful Joe
Cloud (I'd love to beat his face in, but hasn't appeared on a Nintendo System)
Sephiroth (hahaha, same)
Shadow and Interceptor (FFIV)
Metal Sonic
King Boo
Toad
Kraid (MORE METROID!!!)
Metroid Prime (MORE METROID!!!)
Omega Metroid (MORE METROID!!!)
So that is the list as it stands now. I reserve the right to edit it before May 1, 2007. I took some guesses I don't think will pan out if others do, but I think I have other third party characters covered.
Maybe I'll blog about other possibilities for the game that I would like to see later.

We'll call this my contestant contest entry, but I'm betting with my heart, not my head.
P.S.: What's with all the "if" clauses in your entry, dkaufman? And reserving the right to edit? If I see Lego Darth Vader popping up in your entry, we're gonna have issues.
n00b, you are supposed to make your own full post. So sayeth the rules.
This is a draft. The deadline is the start of May. Therefore, the list is subject to change. As for "ifs," I don't see anything wrong with them as they are entirely sependant on other guesses and therefore riskier.
*Dependant. I hate that you can't edit your own comments.
I definitely think Diddy's gonna make it. I've always got the vibe that he's more popular than the original anyways. I'm betting on a few more pokemon, probably from the newer versions. I'm definitely thinking Young Link gets cut, because he's no longer relevant. Wolf Link is my bet for the replacement.
Stay tuned for official post.
