Then why wouldn't he have posted an image of that?
Do you think leakers ever post what people want to see? They always post stuff that just messes with our heads.
Here's how I see things getting done if this leak is to be believed (the roster screen one): Team A is tasked with a set of clips and videos that encompass half off all content offered in this game. Team B is tasked with the other half. We have already seen in the E3 Demos that the 3DS and WiiU versions had different characters available to test. Who's to say that the ESRB "teams" didn't receive the five or more characters we see missing from the GUI of the roster leak? What if Sakurai had this measure in place that if one of the team members on one team leaked screenshots, he would still have the other team's secrets to show us?
I suppose but that just brings up the question about other characters if he saw more than what's on the select screen then why not add them to the ?'d characters. According to that Masterlink guy what were seeing isn't the entire roster so you figure there's other characters left. Why would that other guy only see so much. You'd assume of he saw all this he had to have seen the entire roster.

why not post pics with Mewtwo if he saw him
^ This.
No, plz dont. This is fake.
This is clearly not the place.
Isn't that his Brawl trophy?
Oh god... Not this....
Honestly, if Sakurai does this, it would make me think he wants his fans to feel like they've been robbed and trolled upon.
I agree the stages is what makes this leak look weak. Yoshi has plenty of handheld titles in his game series and yet he gets a past stage? DK gets a past stage despite Returns being on the 3DS? It dosent seem right. It's harder to make fake stages then characters on a select screen.
While I can respect your opinions about the additions this roster leak suggests are in the game, that's not really a basis for confirming/ deconfirming. We've seen Sakurai pull some really good movesets for characters who have literally no background in fighting, so I don't see oddity as a factor here. The "leak" image that shows "X" marks and a "?" mark on Mewtwo isn't actually part of this leak. If you consider my theory of what happened here with the roster leak (Page 72 I think...)(and it's seemingly random GUI and CSP placement) you'd see that there isn't really anything deconfimring those characters being in the game, there is just no evidence to support their presence with what we have right now.
Someone tell me if you heard this too, but I recall it being said that a stage for DK based on Returns was coming to WiiU.
The problem with that though, is that he said certain characters were IN FACT cut.
But didn't a mod discredit it, or say that "leak" was also confirmed to be 100% false earlier? (not being related to the leaks we're focusing on now aside)
I would say that Wolf and Lucas are reasonable - They're from relatively small franchises and were both semi-clones. If Ice Climbers are cut, it's for technical reasons, as Sakurai mentioned having trouble with them on the 3DS. Also, in regards to DK and Metroid, it is generally assumed the leak isn't the full roster, so its possible that if it is real, they have newcomers on the way, newcomers who would probably bring a stage with them, meaning presumably there are at least a few stages not unlocked as well.
Um, no? If that were the case, it would not be posted on the starter-post, but rather, removed entirely.
This is cruel.
The chart leak was posted in a thread on /v/ that an Anonymous user asked: "Who's getting cut, /v/?"I suppose but that just brings up the question about other characters if he saw more than what's on the select screen then why not add them to the ?'d characters. According to that Masterlink guy what were seeing isn't the entire roster so you figure there's other characters left. Why would that other guy only see so much. You'd assume of he saw all this he had to have seen the entire roster.
edit: and I agree with @
Alright, I concede, but is there anything going for that specific leak? Validity of leaker? Known to be Credible? Anything? As far as we know, that leak could have been intended to mislead us just as much as MasterLinkX was with his "disablad" taste in photo manipulation just to add onto the pile of controversy (Though it would seem as of late that they are being pretty helpful, aside from not spilling the rest of the contents of their can of beans).
MASTERLINKX
has the original picture with disabled instead of disablad. Dunno if it was posted in the thread, maybe page 5-6. Not saying it's "100% proof" but it would be the original pic.
So you're basically saying....he did see Mewtwo in the game.The chart leak was posted in a thread on /v/ that an Anonymous user asked: "Who's getting cut, /v/?"
This was the image that Anonymous (OP) posted in his thread.
He doesn't know anything, he just posted who he personally thought was getting cut by graying out certain characters.
3 hours later, someone took the Original Posters image and modified it with the unleaked at the time, Character Select Screen Icons.
As you can see, they are the same image, just modified with the addition of X's and CSS icons, as you can see Ganondorf, Falco and so on are still grayed out behind the icons.
This CSS icon leaker did nothing more than cross out the icons of characters he was supposedly sure are 100% cut, and then added all the icons of unconfirmed veterans/newcomers from the image he had. He seemed uncertain whether Mewtwo was in or not, so a "?" was placed. He had no image sources of Mewtwo, so he couldn't really post anything of the sort, but apparently knew something.
Only reason I see this was done is because he just grabbed OP's image and modified it, and it happened to have Mewtwo on it. If someone like Chorus Men or Dixie or whoever the hell are in the game, he clearly did not have any source materials containing imagery of them to use. So there was no reason for them to include a random google image of them with "?" on it.
The amount of quality Star Fox games may be small, but they are VERY popular and sell really well, also wolf is the main rival of Star Fox so him getting cut is pretty important, imo its as big of a blow as mewtwo was (even though clearly mewtwo is more popular.)
I guess I was just being hopeful, Although I say I "main" Ike in SSBB, It was really a 50/50 deal where I'd play Lucas and wreck shop combo-ing players off the edge and finishing with his meteor smash.
When did he say that, I thought it was just clear that he was aware of the esrb build thing.
If we get a few hidden that's be nice. I'd like some secrets, assuming this is realThe 5 DLC characters are fake.
All those guys you see with a red cross on them are cut.
Mewtwo is an exception. Why ? Why isn't he confirmed or disconfirmed as the others ?
My theory :
Maybe the common source said he could be in. If this leak is real, it's not the final CSS... but doesn't mean the video didn't include all the characters.
Maybe (I use this word a lot) the source shared a certain amount of information, leaving some characters hidden in case he would be betrayed by the people with whom he shared intel, knowing it's not in the realm of possibility to trust them anymore. So it's possible all the characters are in the video, and it's also possible the common source didn't share everything.
Just said the list of 100% cut :
"So here are the characters cut : Snake, Wolf, Lucas, Ice Climbers, Pichu, Roy, Young Link."
Without mentioning Mewtwo. Thus the leaker put a "?" On Mewtwo.
But we will see.
Oh, by the way, iirc, @
But he's said in the past he will not share it. (Perhaps this is a hint)
The guy wrote in the Shulk thread that the DLC thin is made up and that what's pictured isn't the entire roster it's in the second post of the OP
Unless this leak is fake, whether it's fake or real Mewtwo isn't out yet buddy don't be down. I'm sure he will get in.
Well... maybe thats an assumption by him? Idk its seems on his posts in here he doesnt have the whole picture.
I feel your pain, I remember the only reason Mewtwo didnt hurt so bad was the fact I got wolf, and now they are taking him away too
Why would he make a definitive statement like that if it was an assumption? If it is an assumption then why is it relevant to this leak at all? It's no different to me saying the same thing and it getting added to the leak.
As I said before, I'm not here currently to post any additional information that isn't currently available to the public.
I posted those specific character names as I've seen them being used in speculations around the public here and there.What if he just casually confirmed Chorus Men and Dixie ?
Thanks for clearing up some things for me, regardless of how little/much you know.
