Basically what nintendo seems to want to do is add a bunch of new characters from series not already included in the game (as far as I can yell) wich means adding characters like Wii Fit Trainer. The problem with stuff like that is people being angry that “Wii Fit isn’t a real game” now we could argue all day about what a real game is, but nintendo thinks its one.

 And its basically Keep adding more characters from the same series, which is admit-ably what a lot of fans seem to want to do, but others are also slightly frustrated with it. Which wouldn’t be as much as a problem if so many characters weren’t clones with different move properties.

 In the end I’d say Wii Fit Trainer is not a waste of a slot. Falco is a wasts of a slot. While there is difference between him and fox, he’s still clone character based of the Fox model as opposed to his own entirely different thing. Same goes for Gannondorf being based off captian falcon (for whatever reason) and Toon Link (Despite actually being far better than link is in the game, thus making Link more of a waste than Toon Link) and any other character who’s play is basically just ripped and altered from one of the others.
