Because we all love rumors and fishy sources

[Aninymouse]

Total and complete bull****. Anyone can guess that "okay, MAYBE Ridley is in this game but WHO KNOWS what role he'll play, lol"; it's not hard. There's absolutely nothing amazing about these vague (and OLD) "predictions."

More like total bull****. You all are complete sheep, you know that?

 

[Hejiru]

I really really really really really really really really hope Lucario is playable. I dont know if I believe him or not....

 

[Hejiru]

If Megaman and Olimar make it in, then it proves that the icon theory is indeed bull****.

Why? THE ALPHABETICAL THING IS WRONG. It has been disproved many times, and yet people still believe it. All it proves is that Game & Watch is in.

 

[Evil E.]

I sware to bob if Megaman is confirmed.. Ill.. Ill..
MARRY SORA!
and i believe you titled this thread right.. its a rumor.. and that's all Blue watever doesnt have credibility enough in my eyes
so hmph!

 

[Lant]

I would accept Tom Nook being in if Marth returned, and Dedededededededededede was added.

Eh.. I'm normally skeptical, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, if they're just rumor mongers looking for attention, nothing bad'll come of it other than them being proved a liar.

 

[FlatSoda]

I predict Luigi will be in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and he'll be updated before Feburary 10th.

Hold me to that.

he says that luigi comes back.
E for All interview.

 

[SubparSmashBrother]

I do not believe him at all.

 

[Evil E.]

And there we have it folks! Another Nintendo Rep fired for realeasing information b4 time. Oh he will be fired thats a fact. You noticed how he started sweating and studdering afterwards.. LOL i feel sorry for him .. but.. LUIGI! He's nothing with out his floateness ..or wavedashing!



Whoa! y dont you believe him? And why wouldnt luigi be in brawl. Thats common sense. Mario & Luigi H-E-L-L-O

 

[Big-Cat]

A couple of things:

Bluewave's source was wrong about Tom Nook... it's actually Animal Crosser who will be in the game. This makes it harder for anyone to believe him I suppose, but it was a mistake on his source's part, not his.

He hasn't said anything about the complete roster. He's only told us about the starting roster and some of the unlockables. So if you don;t see a character on that list it's only because he hasn't heard about it from his source, that is all.

That interview was fake.


All these predictions are really just guesses anyone could make. Now, if this guy had said Sukapon or someone else obscure was playable, I would take it with a grain of salt.

 

[baheffron]

It sounds like some educated guesses to me. Notice how he is cautious with characters like Lucario and Ridley, both of whom aren't certain to be in. And anyone could have guessed that King Dee Dee Dee and Mega Man would get in.

 

[Hejiru]

That interview was fake.

He said nothing about that interview. Just was that was fake doseny mean Animal Crosser still can't get in.

 

[~N9NE~]

I just wish this guy could predict the lottery numbers for Satrurday.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Those predictions are the same obvious ones we all make.

They seem more like educated guesses than actual knowledge, but for the most part it gives me more hope for Megaman, Dedede and Ridley (who are my top 3 most wanted... wow I took the easy way out)

And to people saying it's fake merely because he didn't mention the obviously returning Luigi doesn't mean it's fake. He doesn't outright say "These are the ONLY people in the game"

He could be an ex-nintendo employee, honestly. I'm not sure if anyone knew this, but like 75% of NOA staff was re-located or layed off last month, so he could easily have been a localization programmer who already started working on the game (or advertiser, web updater, lots of people would know this stuff)

 

[~N9NE~]

He can't be, he used to clean my toilets.

 

[BlueWave]

So apparently these two points are obvious because apparently everything I've said is obvious:

- Said the blurred out part of the Snapshots update is for a possible option to be able to vote on snapshots through the new voting channel Nintendo announced at their conference (I think they're referring to the demo channel, where you can also vote on demos, or maybe referring to the everybody votes channel)
- They are looking into a feature where you could trade trophies online, though they're not sure whether it will actually happen or not.

Believe it or not, your choice. You'll see.

 

[Masque]

Those are actually pretty safe guesses. Of course Ridley and Lucario will be in the game in some form! The problem is that we all know that. To create an effective rumor, one would have to say that Ridley is (a boss / PC / AT); same goes with Lucario, but change AT to Ball Pokémon. Plus, that original Tom Nook "slip-up" is a bit too fishy for my liking. No one is perfect, but the AC character debate is so polarized that his error--or his alleged source's--is just a bit too suspect. I say questionable. It's possible, but I'm retaining my skepticism. If he said something about Claus /

Spoiler

the Masked Boy

or Sukapon--someone relatively obscure in comparison with the characters mentioned--then I might be more prone to believe him.

this has been confirmed by a gaming site. they were like ":ough::voting button:ough::"

somebody check the dates please. people might just say bluewave is an excellent googler

Wi-Fi Play update:

Sakurai:
We’re planning a number of services that make use of Wi-Fi, but we’ll reveal them gradually with the other modes. Enjoy.

Taking Snapshots update:

This feature allows you to send your snapshots to people you’ve registered as Friends for Nintendo WFC play. So you can give them funny little screenshots as presents. You can view them in the Album.

Don’t you think you’d be happy to suddenly get a funny photo from a friend? Perhaps online brawling isn’t the only way to compete.

Hey! mister copycat, you just outdone Kirby in copying stuff!!

Poyo~ just alternate what sakurai said and BOOM! you have a very obvious prediction !!!

get sucked by Kirby, will ya?

your point is weak. i'm not confirming anything he said but you could just compete with your friends for the best pictures. that's what i thought. not an implemented voting service. there's another site that said it was voting. somebody find that

 

[balladofwindfishes]

huh? That didn't have anything to do with what he said. It just merely means you can share pictures with each other...

 

[Tobi-]

Pff If anything we need a Ranking System with NAMES for Anonymous play. Or atleast some type of record that shows how many Wins you have won. This was done in Mario Kart DS, so why not Brawl.

If that's implemented wi-fi will be perfect for me.

youko suggested that in the podcast too.

strange huh?

 

[Conker1]

lol Tom Nook/Animal Crosser

 

[bluekitsune13]

I don't see how an animal crosser could even possibly fight. What would it do? Maybe if you have a save on a Gamecube Memory card you can play with your character. I don't like AC though, so I think it would be cooler to play as a Mii. It would be even cooler if you could play as a Mii with X character's moveset.

 

[Sprigginz_Caldo]

I'd love for most of those things to be true. The only part that made me cringe was the one about Lucario. XD Well, I'm not sure what to believe at this point anymore. Though it is very possible someone could have an inside source, would they really risk their job by telling someone else?

Well...we have an extra 2 months of updates....so maybe some of these things will be revealed to us. ^_^

 

[Desruprot]

Very possible and I sure do hope...

 

[Kokichi]

i feel like those are all pretty generic guesses...I don't know if I’d give the guy credit if they all came true. Perhaps if he gets the date right again on an update or something before it happens...then he'd gain credentials.

As for what he　said, it all sounds pretty good, except for the "Animal Crosser”　character...I really hope no Animal Crossing character makes it in, I don't feel like it'd warrant a good character, especially when there are so many other better choices out there, chi.

 

[kaibyaku]

Oh man, I'd love to believe him. Mega Man... Mmm... But like many have said.. only time will tell.

 

[silver777]

I predict that Megaman will be the final 3rd party character.

.....see? very easy.

 

[SmashChu]

Sounds believable to me. See people, that's how you do it. Predict something that was obvious that no one saw coming and make a lot of beleivable predictions to make yourself prophet.

I could go either way with this. It sounds REALLY likely. I mean, it's defiantly not outside the realm of believability. I hope it's true. But Ridley better be playable.

 

[The Director]

If this is true, this is about what I was expecting in terms of character roster for Brawl. Olimar (he should've been in Melee), Marth, Jiggly, Mega Man and DeDeDe don't surprise me in the least for unlockables.

So far this would make 7 is we include Snake and Sonic. How many more unlockable characters are we looking at here? Around 8 or so?

 

[Kittah4]

I love how Bluewave frequently ends his posts with something like "you'll see". If he's incorrect in even one part, he could just as easily vanish from the internet or make an alt once (or, if, I guess I should say) he is proven wrong.

The E for All announcement was pretty far out for a guess, however. But if he was just given that point of information, he would have free reign to predict whatever he felt like and gather people into believing him.

Ah well, I suppose he did say Mega Man would be updated by the end of november?

 

[CommanderGrit]

Sounds believable to me. See people, that's how you do it. Predict something that was obvious that no one saw coming and make a lot of beleivable predictions to make yourself prophet.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

ok tell me this. How can something be OBVIOUS, if NO ONE SAW IT COMING? That makes absolutely no sense.

 

[Loooooni]

Hey jmister Wave could you please ask your "source" about Geno in teh Brawl

 

[volbound1700]

Please link the posts in Sonic thread... I believe both of them because I was there Monday, October 8th when both Nya Nsa and Blue Wave predicted Sonic announced on Wednesday and it happened. Captain Olimer is confirmed IMO.

 

[Norm]

Some of those roumers i would like to see come through.

 

[Stak]

I don't see how an animal crosser could even possibly fight. What would it do?

You can come up with special moves for anyone if you try hard enough

Neutral B - Slingshot (from Wild World). Tap repeatedly to shoot rapid-fire weaker, slower, short-range shots or hold to gain more range, damage, and knockback. If you hold B you can use up/down on the control stick to change the angle. The projectiles are affected by gravity
Side B - Axe. A slow but high-damage/high-knockback attack in the vein of Kirby's Hammer
Up B - Fishing Rod. Doesn't actually cause the Animal Crosser to move upward but it serves as tether recovery. If it comes in contact with an opponent while the Crosser is standing on ground, he'll flick the rod and pull his opponent in (from which you can throw him/her), kind of like a cross between Link/Samus's grab move and Bowser's Koopa Klaw in Melee
Down B - Shovel. The Animal Crosser digs a hole in the floor, and any opponent who steps in it is trapped for a few seconds. Works like the new Pitfall item except the holes go away on their own after a short while, and opponents aren't trapped for as long

Final Smash: <Bees> A beehive drops on the middle of the stage and a horrified expression appears on the Crosser's face (just like what happens when you knock down a beehive in Animal Crossing). A swarm of bees appear and follow the Crosser for a while, attacking any opponents they come across (no knockback but temporary stun and lots of damage). The Crosser himself doesn't actually get stung (if the bees catch up to him, he just stands there waving his arms to fight them off, but he's still controllable. Maybe in the end they catch him and his face is swollen for the rest of the match?). After a few seconds, the bees leave and the Final Smash ends.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

^ Not the best example of the Animal Crossing Villager but you get the point

 

[Brockman5]

yeah i was in those forums...blue said that sonic wiould be updated on that wednesday before he was revelaed at the confrence... so i have to believe him for now because it all seems logical..

but olimar ftw!!

 

[Icy_Eagle]

Recipe for "an insider's report!

1 claim of knowing a guy who has inside information
Plenty of "reasoning" for some extra believity. Not too much though.
Add to this some fake facts that clones wont return at all and mix everything with a few characters that are obviously returning.
Put in this mix some features that are widely speculated.
Put it into the oven and have it set on perfect wordcheck.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until the report looks like an inside source
And lastly, decorate with some reasonable newcomers and popular rumors to your taste

Enjoy
