There have been a lot of leaks lately, you guys should call the Mario Brothers. They specialize in this type of stuff.

Here's another funny tidbit.

The concept art for Butt Butt's Amiibo depicted him being used on the Smash Amiibo base.
Funny, ain't it? :025:

I know that reference. And I hate you so much for bringing that up.

I hope Cars 3 is good so you can suffer

I just saw the video actually
I'll make sure to do one when I get the chance
Hint: it'll probably involve the SMW theme, P-Switches and traps(no, not THOSE traps)

I still can't believe they got a professional Wrestler to do this
DiC, how much money did you pay that man to do that
Better have been atleast 4,000 an episode

What is a "buttbutt"? :054:
If you enter WSWWAEAW as your profile name in SK, the words "Shovel" and "Knight" are changed to "butt" in all the dialogue.

So the protagonist of the story becomes Butt Butt. His weapon is a butt.


edit: messed up the code. fixed.

I take it I'm a little late to the party?
You're never late to the leaks party
Grab a leak and bust it
And welcome to our beautiful thread of chest discussions, Butt Butt arguments, unnecessary drama and most importantly traps leaks!

He's that butt that uses a butt as a weapon
It's in his name for God's sake!

You know if SK isn't in Smash at this point. Yacht Club Games will look like a bunch of **** heads.
And if SK is in Smash they will still look like a bunch of **** heads since they shoved this babys first retro character down our throats so much. They made one game and they are acting like they are super stars and instantly selling SK out to every possible medium possible. Its a bad time to be a lifelong nintendo fan

I'm a lifelong Nintendo fan. I love Shovel Knight.

I don't think he's in but seriously, don't speak for everyone. There's no need to get so angry over something that hasn't happened yet.

You see when one gay man loves another gay man....

I really had to post this. I'm so sorry
I'm not sorry.

Damn Salty much.

I don't even believe SK will be in the game or neither do I want him in but I never believed that. Besides, good games should get some knowledge and publicity

That's a little over dramatic, the game got mass amounts of praise and it's extremely popular for an indie game, especially from a newer developer, they're not "selling out", they're giving people what they want while building a professional relationship with one of the biggest companies in the industry.

Yes, the Twitter stuff is a bit too far, but that shouldn't make anyone think any less of the actual game.

Shovel Knight is a great video game character.

He's an original concept, has put in a **** ton of appearances.

And his game is?

GASP.

Good.

Seriously. Whether he's in or not?

You don't need all that salt in your diet.

Protect your arteries and save the salt for something that actually really sucks.

If SK is in, I'll be glad. Only because people get another character to play.
I still expect a storm full of arguments but whatever

People act like if Shovel Knight is in standards are so much lower.

Like suddenly if this character that has been proven to be doing extremely well for Nintendo and Yacht Club games will suddenly let in the Shreks and troll characters.

No one should be reacting like that, because it's illogical and just not using your brain.

And you definitely shouldn't be bad mouthing a character when you have a character that was the only newcomer who got a description that said he was lucky to be here in his picture of the day for his reveal.

How many guest appearances has Shovel Knight been in so far? Over 10 so far, and its been a year. Thats major selling out.

First party, released in all regions =/= Indie third party title that hasn't reached the Japan. Even Shantae is more popular than he is at the moment.

Seriously chill it with the Shovel Knight hate. If he's in, he's in and no amount of butthurt fueled rants will stop or prevent it.

EDIT: lmao using 4chan posts to argue

I do realize it's taking it a little far, but Sakurai literally admitted Shulk typically wouldn't get into Smash Brothers.

Saying ''OH NO THIS ONE GAME ONE YEAR CHARACTER!" for Shovel Knight when rocking a Shulk avatar is hypocritical when Shulk is in one game probably won't be in any sequels to said game, and is pretty much the equal of a Final Fantasy lead who only returns for legacy games and spin-offs.

It's just odd that the most vocally against Shovel Knight in the thread is a guy rocking a Shulk avatar.

Context is more along the lines of his playstyle than him in general.
"He's not the type of character that would usually appear in the Smash Bros. series, but we worked really hard to make it happen. We're very happy with how he turned out."

In terms of Smash discussion, Shantae is pretty popular but in terms of actual sales the Shantae series is likely being outsold (or close to) by Shovel Knight. Not that it really matters because if it were Shantae instead you'd probably be using the same arguments against her inclusion.

Also the image you're quoting is basically saying Shovel Knight isn't in when you seem to fully believe it.

Shovel Knight has made a lot of guest appearances but it is mostly to help promote other indie games- not the other way around. I wouldn't call it selling out just because it's successful.

You know you should save your anger and whatnot for if/when it actually happens, if you really want to be salty. Currently there's Tamaki's rumor, some other indicators and what may or may not be Yacht Club teasing. That's hardly enough to get upset over, even if there's some weight to it.

YCG still had to agree to put in all those games. The other devs can't just use them for free. YCG has taken every offer they could get. Clearly selling out. If this ballot were launched any other year, there'd be a different character in his place, like Yooka Laylee, or the Bloodstained star. Theres always going to be a new and hip indie rep that is flavor of the month.

Oh man, Shovel Knight's successful for an indie title and the small group of people who made him and take extremely modest salaries are smart enough to try and promote him and collaborate with other people. What SELLOUTS.

I don't think you know what "selling out" really means, you might have an argument if they were slapping Shovel Knight on tooth paste or something, but a bunch of appearances in other games is just YCG promoting their character because they know their fans want to see him, it helps sell those games and their own, and here's the big one, it doesn't hurt anyone.
