Don't want to come off as rude, But maybe he's just trying to convince himself that it's fake because their character isn't in it.
Yeah, no one has proven or disproven the leak, but it does look somewhat credible. Granted I want the leak to be true because we get 5 new characters, which is more than anyone expected, and 3 of them are fan favorites. Granted I don't think it is as credible as this leak, but it reminds me of people trying to disprove the ESRB leak because of the image below and the odd character select screen.

To me; the real lynch pin of the leak is the goddamn Grinch. Either it's real; or someone played some really impressive 4 D chess to even think of a detail like that. Again; the GRINCH of all things.

Don't worry about the shantae fans there broken hearted right now let them do there thing, banjo fans would of felt the same way if the final roster leaked with out banjo
You're not wrong. At all. ^_^' But I have a feeling we wouldn't be that bad. After all, it'd only be the FOURTH Smash Bros that the Bear & Bird missed out on. (I don't count 64, and never have, since it was a testing the waters with only the fully-Nintendo-owned characters)

I have people missed that I really want (mainly Rayman and Tails) but I would enjoy this final roster. We can always speculate that this is DLC or perhaps the banner is just for the November Smash Tourny and we may get some more for December :). After all, this is Ultimate!

I honestly don't believe it. It's too blurry (convenient), All characters but Chorus Kids and Mach Rider are safe picks, and missing a 7th Gen Pokemon. Something about this makes my brain itch. It just feels wrong.

Yes, I'd be a bit disappointed if true

not only that but there not only moving characters around but also behined as in depth so everyone fits
I'm just going to try to say this in the nicest way possible, But if your going to get in as a 3rd Party Character in Super Smash Bros then you sure as hell better have the track record to get an invitation, Even minor or lesser known Nintendo characters have the advantage because obviously they are own by Nintendo,

The way I see it 3rd Party Characters have to be a big name or have had a big impact on Nintendo's history and Banjo-Kazooie fits in to both categories, Even other characters like Crash Bandicoot, Spyro The Dragon and Rayman have stronger legacy and make more sense too.

I'm sorry, But indie characters have to be in the back of the line when there is bigger fish to fry. if Shovel Knight barely got in as an assist, What makes them think Shantae has a chance and the "Status" to stand along side some of the biggest 3rd Party names in the industry like Pac-Man, Sonic, Mega-Man and Snake?

If this leak ends up being true I'll go see The Grinch in theaters lol
I was literally saying the same thing today! I had no intention to see the movie, since I think Illumination *******izes everything that made Dr. Seuss great. But if this leak is legit and Banjo & Kazooie finally FINALLY make it in, I will go see this Zod-forsaken movie. Probably with my dad and nephew.

Aren't image only posts always considered spam here? That's probably why.

Because posting image-only posts is considered spam. If you are going to post a picture, please actually contribute to the ongoing conversation instead as well. Otherwise, it’s spam and it will get warned/infracted regardless of the reason it was posted. And rubbing salt into a fan group over something trivial and then acting like “I didn’t do anything wrong!” doesn’t help anyone. Just don’t post it.

Come on man !!! Of course their going to be pissed off !!! A giant leak just came out today and their character is no where to be seen and here they see someone come out of nowhere with a Banjo profile pic posting a picture of the Grinch with a snarky grin on their thread and view it as a jab or insult at them as saying "Our character got in ,But yours didn't haha"

Just stay away from there.

I understand the sentiment my dude but that's a little harsh. Imagine how we'd feel if Shantae got confirmed instead of Banjo and someone **** posted to try to get a reaction from you

Thank you. And it’s not official that the leak is legit yet. Let’s all be civil and respectful of people’s characters

Honestly I thought that about Illumination too, but then I watched sing, and secret life of pets. Sing was a fantastic movie honestly and i highly recommend it.

They have stinkers, and they made minions, but as a whole they can be a good studio. I am hoping grinch and the mario movie is good

LOL I love these Nazi mods. Back in the Brawl days, the mods weren't so bad. Now it is Nanny Net to the extreme.

I know this might be a bad idea, but I'm putting all of my chips on this leak. Sure, everyone is spouting "It's blury" and "It's just another leak", but unlike all of the other leaks, its setup would be utterly ridiculous to put together, and the marketing company that the french snapchatter works for is... Oddly silent. If any company had an employee that was framed for leaking the roster of one of the biggest and most highly anticipated games of all time, they'd try to right the wrong and claim it false. But instead, they what? Removed the guy's Linkedin profile so he couldn't be hunted down any further? That doesn't really solve the problem at all. And in the footage, it's not like he was trying to reveal the roster. He was probably just showing a friend(s) his work for the week, and one of his friends decided to spread this around.
Thus, I am cementing my hope in this leak. It seems solid compared to any other leak so far, and I'll only retract my statement if the marketing company or the dude himself says something to deny all of this. But otherwise... Whelp, fingers crossed for our dynamic duo!

I would like think their recovery move would be similar to Pit’s in Brawl or the Villager’s, where you could tap the button to get a few flaps in. Probably summon a flight pad beneath them. I’d like to think Beak Bomb would be their side special and act similar to Charizard’s Flare Blitz, Pikachu’s Skull Bash, or Luigi’s Green Missile and have recoil damage.

No, better idea!: Have the double jump that's standard to Smash, but if you hold the jump button, Kazooie stays out of the backpack and continues to flutter to slow their decent like she does in B-K and B-T!

EDIT: The Beak Bomb is a sound idea though, since you damaged yourself by hitting a (non-interactable) object in the games too. My one and only problem with it is that it was only originally usable whilst airborne. Perhaps it could be a unique recovery-into-sidespecial combo if the flight pad is their up-special?

Yep! I’d like to think they’d have a variety of recovery options, making them tough to knock off the stage. Between the Feathery Flap, Beak Bomb, and Flight Pad, they’d have a lot of options to return to the stage!

Another thing I'd like to point out about Ultimate is the abundance of cinematic Final Smashes. For me, this almost confirms that upon activiating B-K's Final Smash, their victim will be thrown onto the edge of Grunty's tower where the Mighty Jinjonator will be waiting for them!

I've seen a lot of people say it being blurry is a sign against it so I want to try to remind everyone, the guy who made this wasn't trying to leak the roster for the internet. He posted a snapchat video he sent to his friend, and his friend posted it elsewhere and people have since resized and scaled the image from that (the roster image itself is from a tiny strip of paper). Please keep that in mind when looking at the leak.

I was responding to him as to why he got warned since he was confused why he was. If you wish to discuss and express concerns how the staff mods, feel free to contact myself or to make a case throughout forum support.

As for the leak, I hardly consider this on par to the ESRB leak and won’t believe it until we have something more tangible like a video or more higher quality images but I do like seeing my childhood heroes finally being included in Smash. I wanted them since back in N64 along with James Bond. I was a Rareware fan boy back then and played all of thier games. As well, Banjo-Kazooie getting would possibly mean getting B&K content which means Gruntilda slam poetry. I am a huge fan of making those. Just check my profile page status updates.

I just saw Super Smash Bros Ultimate video and got a 5 second Grinch Movie ad before it started, It's a sign !!!

(Yes I know the movie comes out next month and it's just a funny coincidence)

Are we really disrespecting other fan bases?

I'll always be a fan of Banjo & Kazooie, but if this is the way a good portion of us behave, then I'd rather not be a part of this thread. Which is a shame--when Banjo & Kazooie were the unlikely underdogs, this was a positive thread. We'd post our favorite moments from the games, what we would like to see in Smash, how it would be great to have our character in the game, because it would make us happy, not to spite others.

There are some characters that I don't like--I've made that well known. But if the situation were reversed, and we got a bunch of **** posts from Steve fans, I'd think they were assholes.

I still think Banjo & Kazooie aren't a shoe in. But I do think their chances are more likely now, ever so slightly. This should be cause for celebrating our characters, not the misfortune of others.

I just thought of something. I've never played a Banjo game myself (hece why I've never personally hyped Banjo), but assuming this leak is real, this might be the push I need to finally break out Rare Replay and check out the Banjo games.
