Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

[TheOthin]

The thing that irks me the most is the fact the Lucina isent with the other FE characters in the rows of the roster picture, and next to Dark Pit and Dr. Mario of all people. Its like they were trying to make it obvious they are clones and last-minute additions...

Even before the roster was confirmed, I've been maintaining that if it was, the CSS would still turn out to be some sort of beta or intermediate build not representative of the final game. I'm standing by this.

 

[TheAnvil]

If I was a Shulk fan, I'd be really disappointed. His moveset looks so bland.

 

[SoulOfKhaos]

Gotta feel bad for Sakurai, he must be in a lot of stress right now with all these leaks coming out. Unless they're all fake but I'm pretty sure we all think this is 95% True

Yeah, I feel bad for him. I'm sure he put so much work in making the game and building the hype...

 

[Sages]

Sakurai-sama DLC please:

• Geno
• Isaac
• Paper Mario

Yeah it does.

I wonder if chugga and josh forgot to think about the fact this is the 3DS version....how can it look like a brawl hack in the first place...wouldn't it take massive work to get brawl even capable on the 3DS?

 

[TheOthin]

why in the world would he be under stress? He's done nothing wrong, and even if the characters are leaked all eyes will still be on his official revelations.
Besides, not everyone manages to see the leaks.

Imagine you're putting on this extended show, taking place over the course of more than a year. Right as you get to the final stretch, people start shouting out the details of the final, climactic scenes before they happen.

I assure you, he's pissed.

Hopefully they're just Smash attacks

Not sure if it's worth pointing out but it seems that Wii Brasil (Unofficial Brazilian Wii facebook) discovered something interesting

In case you don't understand, the monitor logo is barely visible, but it says "Positivo"

Positivo is a Brazilian Computer Monitor brand/company, and their logo are easily recognizable, if someone can mess around with the brightness we can get confirmation if it's really from Positivo.

 

[Amherst]

I feel bad now.

I still don't believe that he cut SSE because someone leaked it. I do think, however, that it has everything to do with development time and/or 3DS game size.

Chugga can be pretty stupid when it comes to leaks. I mean, I get being skeptical, but sometimes you just do it wrong.

 

[Weeman]

Where did this Dixie/Mewtwo/Ridley thing came from? can we trust it?

 

[MrSirSteven]

I feel bad now.

[Xiaphas]

If that's true with Mewtwo, Mach Rider, Impa, Dixie, and Ridley, I'm a happy Ganon.

Your signature is seriously messing me up right now.

 

[R0Y]

So i'll just ask, is there any chance for Ridley left?

 

[Thessbmzocker]

I feel bad now.

Aww man :/ If I were him, i wouldn't make another smash bros. his faith in us must be nonexistant at this moment.

They worked so hard on those newcomer trailers too and we saw those newcomers on a crappy quality image first. I'd be pissed if I was in Sakurai's position but he was probably prepared for this.

NeoGAF member has a catch-up post for this who missed some info: Here

 

[Ffamran]

Y'know what would be funny? Sakurai is leaking this through proxies - other people - to mess with us. He's showing unexpected characters and not showing characters we want. Why would he do that you might ask? It's Sakurai and he loves to mess with people. Who knows, he might show the "DLC" characters and "cut" characters while letting the leak do its thing and cause an outrage.

Hmm, maybe this is a reason why Sakurai and Kojima are friends...

 

[Starlol9]

This

I feel bad now.

Is why I hate leaks so much.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

So just to confirm:

- Leak is real.
- There are more characters.
- No visual proof of any of these characters.
- Might be Mewtwo, Chorus Kids, and Dixie Kong?

Also where is JohnKnight, I seem to recall him being steadfast that Duck Hunt Dog was never going to be a thing in Smash Brothers? Loveeeee to hear from him now.

I did my best. It does seem to say that.

 

[TheOthin]

Okay so I get why people are putting a lot of stock in Dixie, Mewtwo, and Ridley, but why does everyone seem to have jumped to assuming Impa and Mach Rider rather than a Rhythm Heaven character?

 

[SpaceJell0]

If I was a Shulk fan, I'd be really disappointed. His moveset looks so bland.

It really does, I don't know what those Monado modes do though. However, they don't seem to drastically alter anything aesthetically

 

[Casey_Contra]

I love how fantastically this whole thing is unfolding. Still looking forward to finding out if this is it or not! What if the leaker knows for sure if Ridley is in or not, but is pulling a Sakurai and stringing us along...

 

[Pieisthebest]

Looks like everyone's most wanted character is getting in!

If this happened, i would laugh so hard then probably just cry with joy at how awesome and how taken car of this game is.

Oh man, leaker dun goofed.

 

[R0Y]

Oh my god...

 

[CapnMuffin]

Not sure if this has been posted. These pics are apparently from the original "Source Guy" to a secondary leaker who gave us this link.

They are better quality (you can see the whisker dots on Duck Hunt for instance) but the dang mystery pink stage is still blurry. I think one or 2 pics here haven't been seen yet either, like this one:

 

[Oniric Spriter]

Even if the leaks are true I'll still support Sakurai's work hiding these surprises, 19 days before Japanese release isn't that bad for a handheld game that has been over a year in progress.
Whoever he decides to show next will make as happy as before.

 

[Gidy]

I'm just gonna leave this here....

[MasterOfKnees]

We know it? when was this said?

The poster ID was different between the OP and the guy who claimed Ridley wasn't in.

I feel bad now.

This is the third time Sakurai experiences a Smash Bros game leaking, I'm sure he has been anticipating it.

 

[Capt. Butt Stallion]

So just to confirm:

- Leak is real.
- There are more characters.
- No visual proof of any of these characters.
- Might be Mewtwo, Chorus Kids, and Dixie Kong?

Last thing we heard from the leaker is the remaining characters are Ridley, Impa, Mach Rider, Mewtwo and Dixie Kong. But as there's no photo/video evidence, I'm not buying it. Yet.

 

[leprechaunlink727]

Anyone think maybe Mach Rider has Snake's move set or aspects of it?

I don't have any 'proper' tools but I tried
Certainly looks like it though...

 

[Loungemen]

Poor Sakurai…I actually feel really bad for him

I wonder what his thoughts was when he saw these?

 

[HAEJIN]

Uh oh. Things are gettin' fishy now.

Positivo is a trademark PC monitor here at Brazil. This means one thing

Supposedly leaker is from Brazil, or ESRB somehow use Positivo, in which are Brazilian PC Monitors, for their videos.
