You could get away with different forms of link and giving them different items. Have Seperate Toon Links/Young Link/ Skyward Sword Link/ Twilight Link each with items unique to the games they came from, and you have 4 visually different characters with different movesets already. Or twilight could go the whole Wolf form/Midna route, which would be cool.
There's the other obvious choices, Ganondorf and Zelda/Shiek. Have shiek be a more speedy ninja type with faster/weak attacks, while ganon/zelda use different magical attacks.
As for other less important characters who could tentatively, they could easily work a zora/goron type character in there. Maybe make them the ones from Majoras mask before link turned them into masks, and you have a good ranged fighter and a heavy hitting close range brawler character respectively.
OOT or SS Impa would be a good choice too, though there would probably be overlap with sheik. I'm sure there are plenty more that could work too.
Of course, the other option is, rather than a bunch of characters, have a significant pool of items that you choose from to use. We already saw the fire rod, bombs and sword in the trailer (and possibly more, can't remember), if they pick a ton of items from the different games, there should be plenty to go around.
