Roster size for the next Smash Bros probably won't be topping what Brawl did or be anywhere near 50 characters like a certain amount of people are requesting. Might even lean towards catering to tourney players with the recent talks of balancing and other aspects being the potential main focus for development.
Quote:
The game’s director Masahiro Sakurai admitted in an interview that “a change of direction may be what's needed”.
"It isn't a matter of ‘If the next game has 50 characters, that'll be enough… There is a certain charm to games that have huge casts of playable characters, but they tend to have issues with game balance and it becomes very difficult to fine-tune each character and have them all feel distinctive."
