Here were some of my playable character predictions for Super Smash Bros. 4.
Legend Key
Character names in Bold means I have successfully predicted that they are playable characters.
If a character's name is crossed out, this means that I was incorrect about them being playable, thus they were not said playable.
Any characters with a "*" next to their name meant that they were formerly on my prediction list.
Any characters with red color on their names means that although they are currently not confirmed as a character yet, I still think it is possible for them to be DLC additions to be playable characters.

If I could add anything I want list
This list contains characters I wish were to be as playable characters in SSB4. In my opinion, they are likely not going to be playable characters in the game. However, I just imagine if I was the one who gets to choose people to be playable in the game. Its quite fun for me to do this too.
