I never really gave a crap about Diablo 2, so it's all good in that regard.

Based on my understanding, Sheik functions the same was as in melee: A transformation for zelda.

I assumed Sheik was in game just because Zelda was. It's kind of weird that they portray him as his own character in the characters link. Makes it hard to figure out how many characters there are in game >.<

Is Zero Suit Samus a transformation for Samus?

As far as I understand it, Samus becomes Zero Suit Samus only after she does her Final Smash attack.
Think. :)

First of all, him?

Secondly, Sheik plays nothing like Zelda in ssbm. So much in fact that it is disadvantageous to turn into zelda mid-battle, making sheik essentially a stand alone character as you can start as her.

Don't know how SSBM works, but it's never not even once a good idea to turn into Zelda for some mixup/mind games?

The disadvantages of zelda far outweigh the advantages possibly gained with mindgames. The only time when it might be okay to turn into her is for recovery, as hers is very good compared to sheiks. Even still, most players do not do this simply because if it does not work, they have to start off as zelda when they respawn and lose their invincibility advantage because they have to switch back.

In starcraft terms, suppose you have two players of equal strategical skill. One player has 20 apm (zelda) while the other has 200 (sheik). The mechanical advantage cannot be overcome and the 200apm player will always win.

When you saw Zelda on the characters list did you think "Oh man, i hope they include Sheik too!"?

I think they're a package

Lucario and Ness are also as good as confirmed.

Their heads have both been seen in the Sticker screen, where characters that the stickers can be put on are listed.

http://img341.imageshack.us/my.php?image=vip439380np6.jpg shows Lucario (and Jigglypuff, as if there were any doubt about it being in).

Not for mindgames. The only time you should ever transform back is if you have one life and can't recover otherwise. Even if you make it back on, you almost 100% need to transform back to win at the higher levels.

Sakurai mentions the difficulties he first faced with the idea (there are a bunch of varying characters in the game, after all) as well as his own initial aversion to the idea of a singleplayer story mode. After realizing he wanted to use the side-scrolling aspect from the previous Smash Bros. game as a start-off point, Sakurai once again faced the challenge of figuring out a way to make the characters coexist, and to make a story make sense. Enter Kazushige Nojima, the man behind the story in games such as Final Fantasy VII and Kingdom Hearts.

"At that point, I decided to ask Kazushige Nojima-san to help us since he had composed the scenarios for titles like Final Fantasy VII," Sakurai tells Iwata. In typical Iwata fashion, he replies, "Wow, asking the person who crafted scenarios for Final Fantasy to write one for Smash Bros. is a pretty big deal."

Im not really great and Ive only played melee a couple times, but I think its because he is so light and most of his air attacks have really low priority

Fox is definitely one of the most played, up there with Marth, Falco, Sheik, and Falcon

fusiondf is right about kirby. His range is very small and he has pretty laggy moves that are of low priority and do minimal damage. His only saving graces are his ability to crouch very low and his excellent recovery.

In the intro movie to Brawl, Marth and Ness appear fighting, so I'm going to assume that's a pretty clear indication that they're going to be in. I'll wait for the <i>official</i> official notice though to update the op.

Check out the intro movie, it's quite epic.
