I think the Riddler is still a great Idea. Off the top of my head I think he is the most recognizable villain that would fit in the Nolan universe the best.
If they just have him in a stupid green suit leaving riddles around Gotham, then yes it is a bad choice, but there are multiple layers to the Riddler character that can be explored. With the right actor and the right script I think the Riddler could come close to matching Ledger's Joker.
I don't think it would be a terrible idea to also have the Penguin in the movie. The Penguin character is easy to make realistic. It also follows the pattern of Nolan including the mob in the two previous movies and intertwining the stories with the main villain. Falconi, Maroni, the Pengiun.
