Every series EA seem to drop an expansion or two and bring them back in a later gen.
For example, Sims Superstar never appeared in TS2 but an element did in TS3 in Showtime and Late Night. Similarly, there was no OFB expansion in TS3, I think it's nearly a given it will be in TS4. House Party has never made a reappearance in the Sims series since the original, maybe it could make a comeback as a Celebration pack with baby showers and more.
But what EP wouldn't you miss if it didn't make a comeback in TS4? Personally, I wouldn't really care if the Ambitions pack returned. It seems we are getting more involved jobs in the base game anyway. Similarly, I wouldn't care if World Adventures didn't make an appearence, but I would care for a more easy going Vacations pack, similarly to Bon Voyage.
What about you?

You have no idea what that means though.
We'll know tomorrow hopefully.
Showtime (the celebrity status thing was annoying)
World Adventured (more loading screens and buggy quests)
Yes, it goes on and on, my friends
Some people started playing it not knowing what it was
And they′ll continue playing it forever just because ...
But if I chose an expansion that I wouldn't miss, it would be World Adventures since it was kinda annoying, you had to do ALOT of RP quests just to buy a holday home in one of the worlds which made it pointless!! I don't like anything RPG! lol except little things like the Detective job!
It was more adventure then vacation and no beach or mountain locations.
Generations
They could have put all that stuff in the base game.
From Sims 2: Apartment Life
From Sims 1: Superstar
For all three of Showtime/Apartment Life/Superstar, these need to be things included in whatever EP they use for Night Life/Late Night, unless the things that came in NL/LN are in the base game. If not there is no need to have two separate EPS for the Night life/city feel and fame. If you're going to do it go all the way with it EA. Mind you there's not a LN/NL EP I'm fine with there being a separate EP devoted to Fame and Celebrity lifestyle.
Also the elements of World Adventures and Island Paradise don't need to be separate EPS. Just put them in a vacation EP, I am sure it can be done. Make it so that the vacation worlds have a good amount of options for adventure and relaxation. Adventures don't necessarily have to revolve around tombs and treasures either.
wasn't overly fond of Ambitions and I never really used the features from it again other than sculpting
Showtime was annoying as was Supernatural
the rest were all decent in some way but I've got a feeling ITF won't be good.
But if they are in, i will get then too.
Sims 2: Apartment life and nightlife
Sims: House Party
Except for Pillow Fighting. Yeah. That annoying constant Pillow Fighting interaction can go jump off a cliff.
Tom and Annabelle
I actually really liked Ambitions.
I'm fond of all the EPs, so I have no suggestions to drop.
I think dedicating an entire EP to jobs and professions was just too much; that's something that could have been introduced in the base game, to some degree. Let's see how this whole TS4 job opportunities is going to work. It might be similar to what I'm talking about.
The last one would have to be World Adventures. I'm not really interested in doing quests. Exploring is cool, but this isn't a Tomb Raider game, so the quests are unnecessary. Putting that aside, I'd love a vacations EP, with a lot of different places to choose from. They could bring Egypt, France, and China back if they wanted to (that'd be great). But I also think they should include other places/worlds. For starters, the entire Island Paradise EP could be included in that, as a tropical location. Other locations would include something like the woods/mountains where we'll be able to camp, or an Antarctic location, even.
These are all just ideas, really. We're not sure how TS4 is going to work, yet.
EDIT: And like someone said, Generations. Seriously, generations is base game material. Isn't that the whole point of the sims in the first place?
I wasn't a fan of the Superstar one in Sims 1 but as I am still considering Showtime for Sims 3 at some point, I can't entirely rule that out since Showtime seems to have some similarities to Superstar.
Generations I feel should have been part of the base game.
Ambitions has some decent features but the only thing I would REALLY miss is the stylist career so if that was put into an OFB EP I think that would be fine with me. Most of the other careers don't interest me too much.
Education career should be in the base game too though.
The Sims 2; - Seasons (Never Liked It.)
The Sims 3; - Seasons (Only Bought For Aliens.)
There ya go.
Generations shouldn't be needed if the base game is rich enough.
Ambitions. I liked it, but something more Open-for-businessy would probably be better. But, I LOVE the firefighter career. It would be 20 times better if the other firefighters actually...fought fires with you .
Generations. Much as I loved the game, I'm hoping it won't be necessary for Sims 4 (more cute family interactions in the base game).
Showtime. I don't like any of the careers, honestly. And fame already came with Late Night.
Supernatural. Great EP, but I don't care about Supernatural stuff THAT much. Would be fine if it was spread out throughout other EPs.
Island Paradise. I could live without it. And I didn't like that the island couldn't be used as a vacation world.
Into the Future. Was excited for it but...now I'm not. A unique idea, but...I doubt it will resurface in Sims 4.
Wow. That's basically...all of the EPs haha. I'm ready to see some new ideas!
I didn't really like AMBS either, felt it was a bit dry, IMO
On the other hand I really enjoyed supernatural and I hate the fantasy side, If they fleshed it out a bit more, like way more gameplay with each occult, perhaps a supernatural/magic school, supernatural jobs etc, I reckon it would of been better, Plus the feel of moonlight falls is fantastic, I love the southern feel it has, always reminds me of true blood.
from sims 2, probabaly freetime, wasn't enough
and sims 1, didn't really like house party:/
I have Supernatural, Generations, and World Adventures, but I could play the game just fine without them.
