I like the ideas behind a lot of these new characters. Megaman has insane priority in all directions, greninja has the untouchable style, villager is anti-camp, little mac is 100% ground based, and wii fit trainer is the only one with a power up skill.
Huh. You know I never really thought of Shiek as much of a ninja...That might be in part due to not having played Ocarina of Time as a kid...
It definitely is nice to see the new play styles. I'm personally interested to see how they end up feeling.
And I'm sure that there is some form of flaw in Greninja's attacking patterns that will be exploitable. Smash will hopefully focus on more aspects of balance when compared to the other smash titles that have been released. It seems like the team really wants to make a game for the competitive player base, and balance is key in doing that.
Plus, even as a casual player I don't want to see one character completely outshine the others for one reason or another.
As a more general question, are the character changes we saw last Tuesday the only ones we know about, or were there others announced prior? I can't recall if there was or wasn't...
