I noticed that between each edition of smash bros there were certain additions put in in order to make the game different from its predecessor (i.e. Melee got the side special attack and charge smashes, Brawl got the final smash) I began to think "how could one differentiate itself from brawl in that fashion without overly convoluting it or adding ridiculous things like a super final smash?"
My idea is pretty simple. There is an item, probably shaped like a mario kart item box, that will give each individual character a signature item that no other character can use. For instance, since we got rid of Mario's fludd as an attack, the fludd could be his signature item and Luigi could get his vacuum. We could relocate regular items into the signature item category if we see fit; maybe giving Kirby the star wand.
Here are some characters I thought of items for: Bowser - Chain Chomp, Waluigi - Tennis Racket, Donkey Kong - Some sort of barrel item? (didn't think that one out too much), Fox or Falco - rocket launcher from assault, King K Rool - Blunderbuss.
Anyway, it's just an idea for you all to consider.
While its much more powerful then what you're talking about, Final Smashes already do this. Nobody has really confirmed whether or not those will actually be in the game or not though.
