Granted, they don't have as much clones as in Melee, but still, what's the point of having clones in the first place? They had plenty of time to make unique characters.
I can tell this and I don't even have the damn game.

Sorry RD, but by, as you said, not having the game, you can't really say anything bout clones this time around. =/
Toon Link is the only one I'd consider a real clone here, despite the fact that he plays better than Link, but again that doesn't matter.
Ganondorf and Captain Falcon are completely different this time around. Despite lacking a sword, Ganondorf moves at an incredibly slow rate, and his attacks come out even slower. His side B has gone from a sliding uppercut to a Vader-choke-ish style move, and can even be used for suicides. Likewise, his up B acts as an uppercut, instead of just a "magical leap that does nothing if you don't connect" Down B is a slower Falcon Kick...can't deny that.
The spacies are different completely....sort of. Falco's mB moves mimic Fox's like before, but his A's and aerials have been completely revamped to work differently than Fox in every way. Not to mention his reflector is used as an offense edgeguard rather than a projectile sheild. Wolf, on the other hand....a complete different entity on his own. I can't really even describe it. =/
And Lucas...oh yes, Lucas. While his B moves are,a s you said, B with different effects, one should keep in mind most people use A moves to reel up damage then use a special for a finisher...and I can safely say Lucas's A moves feel drastically different. Unlike Ness, Lucas uses his PSI powers to extend his range, and, IIRC, deala bit more damage than Ness....not to mention his USmash is a godsend from the dreaded yoyo. I always hated Ness, but Lucas has grown into one of my favorite characters.
