Two things: Balance (in characters) and Balance (in controls)
1.
I don't want to see the same friggin characters win every tournament (Sheik/Fox/Marth, occasionally Falco/Peach). Marth needs to be dumbed down, Peach needs to lose some of that incredible horizontal recovery (I'm a Peach and I think it is a little much), Falco's spike needs to be modified (like in the PAL version)
[I could go on... ]
Beef up Yoshi, make Ness a champion, Game & Watch a contender, etc.
2.
Obviously many people are going to want to use the shell controller for this game; we don't know how this will control with the freehand yet, but I fear that shell players will end up having some advantage in smashes (thanks to the C-stick)
If the new controls aren't good enough to keep up in high-level play, then no one will use them.
I would like to see people winning tournaments with the Freehand Remote, and I think the only way for this to happen is if the shell controls have no C-stick functionality. I know that the Cstick is essential for SHFFLd Uairs and retreating Fair/Bairs, but I would really love to see the Cstick functions removed. It's kinda lame how someone can whip out a smash in the flick of a stick. Pulling off natural smash attacks with the A button when under pressure is what is supposed to separate the pros from teh hos.
