Smash Bros. @ E3 Character Reveal Prediction Game

SonicMario

Star Spirit
Hello everybody! Welcome to the E3 Character Reveal prediction game. We're now just a month away from the big event. And I wanted to make this game as a fun game for many of you to participate in as our hype steadily gets bigger as we get closer and closer to the direct.

A FEW RULES

You may pick only 12 Character predictions. And you have until June 9th, a day before E3 to list your predictions. You are allowed to change if something in the Pics of the Day confirms or deconfirms your character(/s) (Like if say Wario is in your predictions and he's revealed this month for Mario Kart 8, if you have Miis in your list and they're revealed on June 6th for Tomodachi Life, or a newcomer you have listed deconfirmed via a reveal as an Assist Trophy). You can also change on a whim if you feel switching out one for another to try to gamble for higher points, or pick a character with a higher chance to make your predictions a little safer. On June 9th your choices will be locked. Any changes made on the ninth will not be allowed and your previous choice will be the one taken into account. So if you want to make last minute changes, June 8th is your day.

You must specify all 12 characters. You can't pick "A Mario Newcomer".

There is currently no prize in this. This is simply for fun and bragging rights. Whoever gets the most overall points by the end of E3 (Because of how Wii Fit Trainer was revealed a little later then Mega Man and Villager was, the game is not finalized until E3 itself is over which will take a few days) is the winner.

EXAMPLE POST

(This is just an example of your game card/post, I will not be participating in my own game. In fact this card will have characters that barely have a chance if it at all to make it just to make it a little more of a fake and basically disqualify myself even if I did put it in seriously)

500 - 3rd Party Reveal (Other then Snake and Pac-Man)
- Tails
- Knuckles
- Dr. Eggman
400 - Smash Bros. gets it's own Rep
- Tabuu
250 - Melee Veterans that were Cut from Brawl (Other Then Mewtwo) Reveal

1500 + 400 + 500 + 200 + 110 + 200 + 200 = 3110 Potential Points

Whichever predictions come true. They'll give you points at the end of the game. For the most part, the more unlikely the reveal. The higher the score is.

*Pretty much most people are aware of the Sal leak. I wanted to make sure that the newcomers in that didn't result in a high score if you picked them. If the Leak is real, then they're already confirmed techically so 10 points is enough. And even if it's not real. I still prefer that no one wins easily by just picking characters from the most well-known rumor.
**Perhaps it's a bit of a large score for a pretty requested character, but if Ridley is revealed after all as a playable character. Those who kept the faith despite all that's happened, will be rewarded handsomely.

Place your bets, and have fun everyone!
 
Shy Guy gets revealed as a Yoshi newcomer.

Ness, Captain Falcon, and Jigglypuff get confirmed.

Wario is confirmed to return.

Dr. Mario appears playable as a recolor for Mario.

Lloyd is confirmed as the new Namco rep instead of Pac-Man.

Ice Climbers are confirmed to return.

Uh, I'm kind going for a specific system of which to do your picks. So far your game card is this

500 - 3rd Party Reveal (Other then Snake and Pac-Man)
- Lloyd
200 - Any One Character Series (Other then Kid Icarus) gets a 2nd Rep
- Shy Guy (Yoshi)
64 - SSB64 Veteran Reveal
- Ness
- Captain Falcon
- Jigglypuff
25 - Melee Veterans that Returned in Brawl Reveal
- Ice Climbers
15 - Starter Brawl Veteran reveal
- Wario

500 + 200 + 192 + 25 + 15 = 932 Potential Points

And Dr. Mario is strictly as a seperate character as he was in Melee. This is only character reveal predictions. Other then that. You still have room for 5 more character predictions if you wish.
 
Five more predictions.

Chrom gets confirmed as a playable newcomer.

Mr. Game & Watch returns.

Captain Syrup gets confirmed as a Wario newcomer.

Falco is confirmed to return.

Meta Knight is confirmed to return.

Uh a few problems here

3rd Party is 500 points, not 600
I don't think you noticed the other then Mewtwo part xD Mewtwo is only 75. He's singled out since he's considered the far most likely to return and has a good chance still.
Wario Characters is a franchise with only one character. And that's 200 points, not 300.
Zelda newcomers are worth 100
Mario Newcomers are worth 100
Jigglypuff's return is 64 points

So your card should really be:

500 - 3rd Party Reveal
- Patroklos Alexander
- Tails
200 - Ridley Reveal
200 - Wario characters

-Captain Syrup
-Volt-9
100 - Zelda Newcomer Reveal
- Impa
- Toon Zelda
- Ghirahim
100 - Mario Newcomer
-Bowser Jr.
-Paper Mario
75 - Mewtwo Reveal
64 - SSB64 Veteran Reveal

-Jigglypuff

Potential Points: 2239
