Mewtwo was announced to become a DLC character for Super Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U in spring 2015. I never got to play Melee so perhaps those of you who have played it might be hyped up for this news.

Or if you were up early and already know that he's returning, then I wasted your time. Sorry.

Personally I'm more curious than excited for this late character.

I don't think people wanting Mewtwo has anything to do with Melee. While I liked using him, he's regarded as one of the worst characters next to Pichu. I think its more the Pokemon itself people care about. Mewtwo is one of the most popular and famous Pokemon in Nintendo History. Not having him in Brawl was kinda a crime towards Nintendo History considering Mewtwo is more famous than Jigglypuff who is a main stay. So, its not his previous role in Smash Bros people care about, I'd say its more the actual Pokemon itself.

Edit: And to add to that, the only reason Lucario was in Brawl is the same reason as Mewtwo. The anime gained them high reputation. This is why Lucario talks in the Smash Bros games, it is probably based on the Anime Lucario which is where its Aura abilities also come from to an extent.
