lol sorry guys its real


Edit: But yeah, seriously. Let's get back to discussing Ridley before the Mod army gets called in. Until Sakurai, THE MAKER OF THE GAME, states; "x character is cut" and "y character is in", I'm not taking any leaks seriously.

Do you know the source of these sh
You mean of the combined image? I did that. It was really easy, since they line up. I don't know what everybody is talking about when they say it looks like Dedede changes height. I don't see it at all.

I find it humorous that people are already pulling the "you're denial" card and jumping the gun. Because that worked out so well with all the other "legit" leaks in the past.

On the flip side, people are already crying it's fake because it doesn't have the character they want on it.

Everyone seems to be jumping the gun here. From what I've seen from the evidence on both sides the answer isn't as black and white as people may think. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised if this became real. But I'm going to sit back for a while before jumping into this.

---

Anyways, to keep this slightly Ridley related, I'm calling bets on nothing special for today's PoTD. Not even Metroid related.
If only everybody would understand that. Like you, I'm simply just curious about this leak as there's a chance it's fake or real. And like you said, it could be real, didn't the leaker say something about not unlocking everything anyway? We'll just have to wait about 3 weeks to see.

For people wondering about the unfinished roster: The guy mentioned DLC of Ice Climbers, Lucas, Chorus Kids, Snake, and Wolf. I'm sorry fellow Space Pirates...But it's over.

This is real, but the guy is not from the ESRB, that's a front purely to avoid legal troubles. That Is not to say that our Ridley isn't playable. There is the chance that this is not the full roster and that some chsracters have yet to be unlocked, like when the CSS was leaked in Brawl without Wolf. The next veteran or newcomer will immediately confirm this as real or fake. At worst we have DHD which is awesome.

ESRB doesn't play games. Sakurai would make the total game as amazing as possible, he said they had no plans, but that can chane. Why would an ESRB guy have access to dlc information?

No, at worst we have Dark Pit

Which is pretty dang bad

DHD would actually be a nice surprise

No Ridley plus presence of Jigglypuff = FAKE.

No other way to put it. FAKE FAKE FAKE.
So you're saying if Jiggs is in, then it's fake? That hardly seems logical. Though there are elements to this that seems fake, but same goes for the case of it being real.

Guys please stop entertaining a fake leak, now what really has me worried is tomorrow's potd, hopefully it does not contain RIdley.

Guys...... I don't think there's any possible way this is fake.

BUT.

It's not final. See that CSS? Not organized. Not finished. That stage select? Not even.

It's got to be real. But this for sure isn't all.

It does decrease my "faith", but hey. I'm here till the end

The idiotic creampuff is still unconfirmed. The same idiotic creampuff was a LAST MINUTE ADDITION before. Cut until proven otherwise.

I ask all ridley supporters or people dissatisfied with the roster to use your wallet as a means of getting sakurais attention. If they dont get a dime of our money they may change their tunes, if this true we may be able to force good characters in through DLC via boycott. Because this roster is awful and wreaks of scummy marketing tactics

As much as I think this is fake and utterly despise this roster, duck hunt dog would actually be pretty awesome.

I guess that's fair. On another note: I'm sure we'll get at least one more character reveal before Japan launch. Next character to be revealed will pretty much decide if this is fact or fake. It's sink or swim time for Smash Bros.

We got a very convincing leak. And now Ridley's fate is in the Master Hand of Sakurai, who might kill our dreams on the Pyrosphere's anniversary. :cry:

What's the final verdict on this incredibly convincing leak?
Give me a screenshot of the Newcomers with actual in-game gameplay, THEN I'll give this leak some merit. Or better yet, Sakurai himself confirms/deconfirms these characters.

Edit: Also, WHY ARE THERE 100+ PEOPLE VIEWING THIS THREAD?!

So I'm guessing we can say this fake?phew, that roster was terrible.
tbh I liked quite a bit about it, particularly bowser jr is a character i want, and shulk would be pretty cool. no mewtwo would be disappointing though.

ridley not being in would be zero surprise to me so I'm prepared to live with that.

Some neoGAF poster mentioned that there is no gap between the 2 screens. And while that is how things are captured on 3ds, it still hs weird camera angles like it was a picture. So, fake.

I thought you guys were above dismissing stuff because you don't like it....

Calm down. You guys paint yourself like fools making snarky comments like "already disconfirmed". We don't want outsiders looking in on the Ridley fans to paint us that way. Okay?

Refer to my comment above. It clears some stuff up.

No matter what, the next reveal confirms/denies it anyway

Sink or Swim time. As the plot thickens, only one thing is known: Next Revealed Character will determine everything about this leak.

The biggest reason I think this leak is fake (like most others) is the lack of Mii Fighters on the select screen. Then it's how some of the character portraits look. Wario, Game and Watch, Ganondorf. Jigglypuff looks derpy.

I assume all leaks are fake until official word. It doesn't matter if it's a dream roster or a "bad" roster as this leak is showing. All fake until confirmed to me.

Woah is it act like our stereotype day? We are jumping the gun real hard mostly because we don't like it (not all) it isn't guaranteed but everyone is acting very stubborn. . . Well let's hope you aren't wrong or else there will be severe disappointment.

I just want to point out, the next reveal does not actually confirm or deny the validity of these "leaks", unless a newcomer not included in them is shown. If the next reveal Sakurai had planned was the Duck hunt dog for example( That is almost as bad as Snake), that confirms the dogs playability, but not that the "leak" is valid. Palutena is in the game, but those "leaks" of her were not confirmed because of them, the opposite, in fact.

As such, Ridley does not appear in the image, but then if it is to be taken as legitimate, I doubt that is the full roster, as the characters seem to be aligned more randomly then one would think. That and I don't see Final Destination in the character select. Can someone point out what that, bright pink stage is?
