Someone get the Scooby Snacks ready and I’ll get deducing.He might not be as tall, but he is really close.
Gang. I think we have a mystery on our hands.
But. Duck Hunt is able to stand on his hindlegs for certain attacks. He isn't a short dog by any means.
Here he is compared to Mario. Notice something? Taller then Ness but shorter then Mario.

He'd probably be around Mario's height so I think that makes sense.Here is just a quick photoshopping job. The switch takes the same resolution screenshots. I took all the images on zoom so they all have the same camera angle. I made sure to keep Duck Hunt in the same frame of animation for both screenshots. And the background makes it all easy to line up. Making this probably as accurate you can get. Does this seem like a good size for Banjo to be in Smash?
Do you mean Diddy Kong racing? Because if so this is what Banjo looks like and I wouldn't call it accurate.
I mean, the amiibo looked nothing like the Smash 4 style, too...
Interesting theory, but what characters would even work for this?He's in
>4Chan leakHe's in
Gotta admit though, this is interesting. You guys might be on to something.Here is just a quick photoshopping job. The switch takes the same resolution screenshots. I took all the images on zoom so they all have the same camera angle. I made sure to keep Duck Hunt in the same frame of animation for both screenshots.

I could see Adeleine (and Banjo obviously), but the other two leave me stumped.
Of course don't believe 4chan leaks. But it was funny enough to share. Imagine all this build up of DLC characters just to announce and spell out a Microsoft character. It would be hilarious.
Banjo
Think also about the time between reveal and game time. Plant was revealed in November but wasn't ready. He just dropped so maybe we can confirm that a whole character takes about..say 4 months? Then again this isn't including new music and stage so maybe add a month to make it 5. Any evidence to prove this would be appreciated. Joker no doubt began development Early December since Saks mentioned none of the DLC save for Plant were worked on. Joker is probably a month in. I'm willing to deduce that Joker will drop in maybe late April or May. In June we would have E3 where it's just Microsoft and Nintendo showcasing things....Guys....It's really hard to keep my hype down....but we just may have something of substance here. If Joker drops around April/May, then there would be a whole month for the Dev's to at least work on enough for a reveal.
it is kinda funny.
The main argument trolls claim is that we already have a mammal x bird combo and Banjo would be just the same as Duck Hunt. Conceptually they are similar but in execution they are totally different. It isn't uncommon for devs to use similar models as a base framework and modify it to save time. Since the datamined code shows Bowser jr animation files in the Plant folder it's safe to assune that the devs took the same approach.
lol oh the irony.
Banjo IS nothing like Duck Hunt Duo. Just like Bayonetta was nothing like ZSS, and Piranha Plant is nothing like Bowser Jr. But it's easier to start from something, rather than nothing. Duck Hunt Duo is the most sensible character to start from.
People really think because they're both a mammal and bird duo, Banjo would just be a Duck Hunt echo
Yeah, anyone with common sense knows this. It’s always people who’ve never played a Banjo game before who say that they’d be an echo of Duck Hunt, literally just because they look similar. It’s ignorant. But at the end of the day, Duck Hunt does make sense as a starting point for Banjo’s model lol
If so, that's overly pre-prepared long-term planning for a character whose negotiations may or may not have fallen through.
Does he ever go into full detail about how characters are made?
https://nintendoeverything.com/masahiro-sakurai-super-smash-bros-ultimate-interview/ It's not much but it does put in some insight to Ulti's development. This also shows that the DLC devs are down to about a dozen people or so. This makes any leak highly doubtful.
That means that if there were leaks it would be easier to figure out who is doing it.
