Here's the thing about Fire Emblem - and this may sound bad - its fans care about about the series' big characters than other Nintendo fans care about the characters in their favorite series, because the characters tend to have defined personalities and play a big role in the plot. Chrom may be the 7th Fire Emblem character, but it was also openly stated in the Direct that he got in due to popular demand.

Lets use Kirby as an example again, because why not. I'll give people Bandanna Dee because I wasnt aware of his status as 'the 4th playable character' in games, but who in the world would come after that? Adelein and Prince Fluff aren't cutting it (sorry Johnbob). People simply wouldn't care, except the people who want more Kirby representation because ???

In contrast, there's tons of people who would be ecstatic if Hector or Lyn got in.
