Is this all true? ' I've been hearing this from a few places ( can't remeber off the top of my head) but this is quite interesting. Anyone got any details or pictures?
this is untrue to my knowledge. There were far more major characters to be included. Since there's no evidence to point to the opposite I take it as bullshit.
Which characters are you referring to? and the source of my claim was kotaku... and they're usually pretty reliable http://kotaku.com/gaming/ssbb/king-dedede-ready-to-kick-ass-314872.php
to me Kotaku are just a blog. Let's take it this way: The characters you saw included in Melee (Some) were intended to be contained in the original N64 game , but werent. It's pretty evident that the complex attire of the King was not renderable on the n64 (considering mario, DK and other low-poly models). Also, if any nemesis , Bowser was the one to be included, and he wasn't, yet they added him on Melee. According to the Bowser paradigm, if they were so hellbent on including the King then they d have done it in Melee. Additionally, the King is a late addition to Brawl as well, not some character included from the get-go - all those should spell more arguments than any unsupported claims by a blog site. no?=)
