I think they were trying to stay away from repeats from the older games even though that failed, even so I doubt we'll see the likes of Venom, Gambit, Colossus, etc.
I'd like to see Ghost Rider, but according to Capcom he must have his bike or he's worthless, cool stuuf I guess. Iron Fist would have been great, the motherfucker is a martial arts master come on...
Dat Smoke. Those smoke bombs have a small hit box, but they'll still ruin you.
Either way, there are still plenty of good characters who weren't in 2.
Naming a few more: Havok, Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Mysterio (he'd be awesome IMO), Beast, Mr. Sinister, Sentry...
They have too many good characters to choose from to have any excuse for picking a nobody.
The only nobody I really care about is Stingray
