I do agree that Red had a very unique niche for his gameplay, and being able to swap out between what felt like three very balanced characters was a cool play component.

Sadly, with that loss of transformation characters, I would assume Charizard is going to be your spiritual successor, which isn't so bad. I mean, i'm still excited that they even kept Charizard at this point (Though I think they could have done Red with Charizard, seeing as he is Charizard X for his potential final smash, they could have based it off of the anime special, and had red in the back cheering on like they had done in Brawl)

Though other than Red, the transformation changes are somewhat of a good thing to me, it stinks that you can't swap out certain characters now, but it gives those characters nice new mechanics and abilities in the place of those transformations. Plus, I always was sad getting the smash ball when I played Samus, wasn't super into ZSS (Play-wise at least )
