Villager is honestly the best part for me so far. I wanted an AC rep so bad because it needed one, and Villager looks so perfectly executed.
Second is the artstyle. It looks so damn beautiful.
It's so hard because there are so many great things about this game already. Got damn Sakurai.

The Characters. Not really the choices, more so all the characters this time around...from their normals to their specials...are far more advanced and in-depth than before. It's really neat.
I mean, look at like Donkey Kong and Yoshi and compare them to Villager or Mega Man.

Villager being announced because I always wanted him to be in a Smash game after AC released for Gamecube, it was the worst/biggest tease when they revealed the Smashville stage in Brawl (which even had the AC leaf emblem) but then later Sakurai stated that their characters would actually never fight because it wouldn't be appropriate.
Actually I was so hype about the reveal, the day after I went to get supplies and made a Villager cosplay for Anime Expo last year.

My favorite thing about Smash 4 is the interesting and diverse roster. I may not like some of them in their own games, but I have to say all of them are great choices. Wii Fit Trainer is a character I never knew I wanted.
To me, the beauty of Smash Bros is how it could introduce so many different characters to different people. Smash 4 can be the gate to Punch Out or Pokemon X/Y to a person out there. I'm sure some of us here already are trying out some of these games in anticipation. I personally tried out the classic Mega Man games after Mega Man got confirmed.
Though, as a boxer and a Punch Out fan, I'm particularly happy about Little Mac. Even though his poor form for a boxer can bug the hell out of me, I can't say that I'm NOT excited for him. Although I'll probably never stop complaining about his sloppy boxing. :V

Captain Falcon's reveal trailer with those other characters tossed in.
I'm also pretty stoked about Little Mac being playable. I was so upset when he was just an AT in Brawl.
In addition to that, the level of expression and individuality of all the characters is really refreshing.

There are a lot of things in this game that are making seem like the definitive iteration of the franchise for me and since I asked the question, I will list them all 
- New Roster Additions
The characters revealed so far seem like some of the most unique Smashers the series has ever had, from Rosalina's puppet tactics to Robin's dwindling items to Little Mac's ground based tanking - this game has a lot of different fighting styles going for it.
In addition to being unique, the characters themselves are AMAZING choices. As a fan of the first Punch-Out!! and Mega Man games, it's insane to see two of my favorite characters together in Smash Bros. Does my 10 year old self really, really good to see it now.
- The Surprises
Waiting for this game to come out, and the road of hype getting us there is like what waiting for Christmas was like as a little kid. The excitement, the speculation! And the quality of the trailers is so freaking good that even if I don't care about the character the trailer focuses on, I still enjoy it immensely.
Sidebar: If the trailers are this good I really hope the intro video to the game is spectacular.
- Custom Moves
Anything that can simultaneously make every character on the roster more interesting is awesome. I'm looking forward to choosing which moves I like most and crafting my Amiibo into a player-destroying god.
- Handheld Version
As a little kid having a handheld Smash Bros was a legitimate dream. With the tech we have now it isn't as surprising, but again, it's doing my 10 year old self really good. I'm beyond hyped for the 3DS version
- Tech Enhancements
In addition to having a portable Smash, we get an HD iteration. If that's not enough, we should have a wi-fi competent game as well (please...please). The prospect of patches and DLC support is nothing to sneeze at either. DLC in particular would be a sweet, sweet dessert on top an already fantastic meal.
- It's almost here.

maaaan your Villager cosplay is like a hundred times better than mine
I'M FINISHED!
Um exCUSE me Sakurai but CLEARLY the best choice for Smash Bros would be my fav niche character HOWEVER you are clearly INCOMPETENT and
Cold as ice.
I enjoy it. Though it seems like I may be in the minority here on gaf considering the amount of posters I see taking shots at it.
Same, if it keeps shaping up the way it has been, and if we do get Shulk and a Rhythm Heaven character, I would be so totally fine if they never added another character to Smash ever again.
(Well, besides Chibi-Robo)
(and Tingle)
(and ok a lot of guys, but really they've given me so much to love in this game is what I'm saying, I have nothing bad to say about any of the characters they've added)
Little Mac, Villager, and Mega Man are all like dreams come true to me. Everything else is just icing on the cake.
Ice Climbers is a cool game.
I enjoyed it during the NES days. Same with Balloon Fight.

Is anyone else not following the daily pic as often after E3? I just think there's little to look forward to now and the rest should feel fresh.

I love yours! I appreciate people who take the time to make a giant head if they're doing AC cosplay rather than painting their nose red or something.
It's a SEXY lineup so far
Can't believe we're at 36 characters already! (38 if you count each Mii class separately)
Unless there is an extreme culling of veterans, we're easily making it past 50 characters.
At 11 newcomers, I'm sure there'll also be much more to come. I'd assume there's a couple left for trailers pre-launch, and a few more left in as unlockables.

Time for a new Assist trophy.
I'm guessing Roy. Both Roy's.
Roy vs Roy AT battle?
(wait can ATs attack each other, I don't think so lol)
A few basic things I really appreciate about Smash 4:
1) It's in HD. Brawl felt obsolete on release since it wasn't optimized for modern TVs.
2) There's no shortage of GOOD controllers. Don't have a GCN controller? They're releasing new ones (albeit third-party). Don't want to use one? The Pro Controller and GamePad should both be fine in their own right.
3) Online should be improved. There's no way it'll be as poor as it was on Wii.
4) The art direction is vastly improved, thanks to abandoning the faux-realism in favor of COLOR

These are the only two that would work. I mean for Isaac... come on. Just look at all this stuff he can do.
http://goldensun.wikia.com/wiki/Cloak - The cloaking device item was removed in Brawl. Guess who has the power to do it whenever? I mean Reptile can get away with doing it in Mortal Kombat.

It's a SEXY lineup so far
11 new characters, several with fantastic alternate skins/costumes but most importantly 12 brand new move sets! And that's just what we know so far! I remember when we only were shown the first 3 at E3, there were many people who thought we'd get less than 10 new comers for sure, hahaha. Foolish mortals, this is Sakurai!

That's what I thought too until Sakurai showed that trailer in the middle of July. You gotta believe.
*Stealthy runs away*
I talked to much they must know nothing!
Jokes aside... well it makes a little sense right? Another Smash direct before the big event the release of the 3DS version.

Id have to agree with the sentiment that the newcomers so far are a lot more varied and unique. Sakurai really let it loose and came up with a lot of crazy additions. I feel this roster doesn't pack quite the same punch as Melee and Brawl additions but how they actual play more than makes up for it.

Of course not, but if were up to me I'd let him be able to use random projectiles from all of his games. Like a random chance thing.
