It’s just so on the nose without being too direct that I wouldn’t be surprised if it was suppose to be misleading

That is something i notced too. Everyone outside of this thread laughs at this theory, but i think it's for the better. I don't want Grinch 2.0.This is pretty much the only place on the internet that says Google Theory is probably real. I think I might go directly to the source and ask Duckmeat about, because I feel I don't have enough info on it.
What I really want is a discussion video between @DuckMeat and @PushDustIn where they consider the pros and cons of it and make it easier to understand
Indeed. I stopped following their content once i noticed how much of a douchbag Andre actually is. and Jon is no better, but it's not surprising since he frequents Resetera, a cesspool of anger and pretnetiousness.I unsubscribed from Gameexplain which is unfortunate because they do tend to pump out most quality material, but Jon and especially Andre come across as smug bullies, and we have enough of those on the internet that I don’t want to support them for that reason.
I honestly find Resetera to be far worse than GameFaqs. I mean at least GameFaqs doesn't ban you from saying anything that the mods might disagree with (even trivial things).I don't know about Reset, but screw GameFaqs and the ******** that hangout there.
Verge didn't say that. The box theory flew in the face of Vergeben's leaks as he was conflicted over the SE rep and Minecraft stuff.I like how the Google theory is something that shouldn't be taken seriously when the box theory was treated as gospel right out of the gate when all it had going for it was "Verge said there was only two characters left!!!"

The Box theory was more straightfoward and easy to understand. The Google Theory is more complicated and has more variables at its disposal.I like how the Google theory is something that shouldn't be taken seriously when the box theory was treated as gospel right out of the gate when all it had going for it was "Verge said there was only two characters left!!!"
I remember the counter arguments being the same like. "No way Nintendo would show the remaining character spots so early"
I thought you were on team fake.Box theory had nothing strong going for it compared to google theory to be honest. The design of how the characters were placed in the box could've been easily a placeholder box design and could've been redesigned to fit as many characters they wanted. Making theories on placeholder designs was never a strong thing imo, it's pretty vague. Here now we have a theory that even google confirms can't be a hoax, it's either a mistake or it's real, now THAT is interesting when comparing these two theories lol.
Of what? Box theory? I wasn't really fake team i was more like in skeptical team while others were super suuuuuure it was real. I am a graphic designer so i know how placeholder designs are open to drastic changes, and in game boxes it has been proven many times that they can rearrange stuff pretty differently. Like I said before, they could've easily resized proportionally those artworks to fit as many characters they wanted, not necessarily 2 remaining ones. Placeholder designs is not something ppl should ever be clinging to as absolute proof, regardless of this one in particular turning that way. If you meant Google theory I'm 50/50 on it because it's interesting and it actually has word of Google themselves confirming this can't be faked by regular users, so it's not a hoax at least, it's either a mistake on their own or it's real.I thought you were on team fake.
Google themselves confirmed it was Nintendo or wasn't some random guy paying money to advertise Smash?Of what? Box theory?

I'm on the same stance as far as Google theory's concerned. It has not 1, not 2 but 3 characters I actively want? Sounds too good to be true.Of what? Box theory?

If it takes 3 characters you want to make you doubt it's authenticity you have far more faith than me. Just having Banjo makes me doubt it. Banjo is too good to be true already.I'm on the same stance as far as Google theory's concerned. It has not 1, not 2 but 3 characters I actively want? Sounds too good to be true.
Interesting to know that this apparently can't be faked tho.
It would really take 2 tbh. But 3 is overkillIf it takes 3 characters you want to make you doubt it's authenticity you have far more faith than me. Just having Banjo makes me doubt it. Banjo is too good to be true already.
I'm not sure that's their intention, or their only intention; Joker would just be promoting a Warriors-type game Nintendo-wise. I think they're just being added to attract different people to Smash; besides, if they were just wanting to promote stuff or help promote other companies' stuff, Artorias could help promote Dark Souls some, Banjo-Kazooie could promote a potential Switch release of Rare Replay if no one is working on a new game, Doom Slayer would be promoting Doom Eternal and could help sell more copies of Doom 2016, and Ryu would be promoting...Arcade Archives or Switch Online...?I'm reluctant of going all in regardless of what has come out in favor of it. Mostly because of how well set up the fighter pass is. There seems like a severe lack of "this character is only being added to promote something"
I think each character would serve a different purpose.I'm not sure that's their intention, or their only intention; Joker would just be promoting a Warriors-type game Nintendo-wise.

WE'VE CRACKED THE CODE!BRAVE is an anagram for VBEAR, or virtual bear. Banjo confirmed.
I wasn't part of the conversation but searching in polarpanda's discord she shared and commented this:I'm gonna need a source on this can't be faked stuff
Sweet thanks, most of the time I'm on, people aren't really talking about it unfortunately. I'll definitely look up the conversation thoughI wasn't part of the conversation but searching in polarpanda's discord she shared and commented this:

Since you're part of the group I believe you can look up the entire conversation since everyone was talking it's kinda a pain in the *** to summarize it all lol but this probably should do, basically someone contacted google support and got that answer.
So it's literally just did Nintendo purposely target keywords to early or the Google algorithms thought people wanted these four characters in smash and put the ads up for them.I wasn't part of the conversation but searching in polarpanda's discord she shared and commented this:

I'm sure someone will still say it was faked by a random person. The betrayal of the Grinch leak runs deep. Somebody obviously paid Nintendo to put up fake ads lets be real here.Pretty much yeah either it's real or someone screwed up badly lol, but it's most definitely not faked by random people.
*gives her a look of disbelief* I am not sure if Nintendo is the kind of company who would put up fake ads just because a person paid them to. I think Nintendo is too good for that. You're not saying it yourself, are you?I'm sure someone will still say it was faked by a random person. The betrayal of the Grinch leak runs deep. Somebody obviously paid Nintendo to put up fake ads lets be real here.
The fact the Brad 4 are lumped up together in all this just makes it that more interesting. They started the theory together and now they share negative keywords together.Pretty much yeah either it's real or someone screwed up badly lol, but it's most definitely not faked by random people.

So what exactly are negative keywords, anyway?The fact the Brad 4 are lumped up together in all this just makes it that more interesting. They started the theory together and now they share negative keywords together.
THE MADMAN DOES IT AGAIN!
