Well Namco is involved in the development of the game, and while Sakurai did say Namco won't have special treatment, he might have said that to keep our hopes down. And he said there are going to be only three third party characters. Two of which are already revealed: Mega Man and Sonic the Hedgehog. Solid Snake is a character I doubt would return in Smash 4 because of his recent history with Sony. Right now, recent Metal Gear games seems to go Sony exclusive. I would bet Tails is the third guest to Smash Bros. As the first third-party character to make it to two Smash games, Sonic should probably get a reward: his best friend Tails joining him! I thought of a good moveset for him.
