It's in French. Good thing I can speak. Translation:

"Les nouvelles abondent à propos de la prochaine bombe de Nintendo."
New characters all over Nintendo's killer app. Blah, blah, blah...

"Cette fois-ci ce sont de nouveaux noms, à défaut de nouveaux visages, qui nous sont dévoilés à travers une interview accordé par Masashiro Sakurai à l’émission radio de Tokyo « The Gaming Show »."
New names, found in an interview with Sakurai at Tokyo's "The Gaming Show".

"Il a confirmé que les personnages suivants apparaîtront dans le nouvel opus de Smash Bros :"
Confirmed characters:

"Bowser Junior

Ridley, le célèbre ennemi de Samus (Samus' famous enemy)

Link version Wind Waker"


"Ensuite certains personnages disparaîtront :"
Some characters aren't coming back:

Ice Climbers

Mr. Game & Watch

Link version enfant" (Young Link)

"Link version enfant ne disparaîtra pas réellement puisqu’il sera simplement remplacé par la version Cell-shading et son nom sera toujours le même."
Young Link isn't really leaving, he's being replaced by Cel-shaded Wind Waker-style Link and will still be named Young Link.

"Les fans de Falco seront aux anges, puisqu’il a aussi confirmé que les personnages qui n’etaient autrefois que des “clones” resteront mais seront retravaillés pour leur offrir un véritable panel de coups.
D’après lui, le manque d’intérêt des fans pour Game & Watch et Ice Climbers était évident et il a décider de les remplacer par Pit de Kid Icarus."
Falco fans will be happy (or will they?), since other clones are staying, but are getting their moves redone to add variety. The site says (not me, don't flame me :D) Sakurai saw that Mr. Game and Watch and the Ice Climbers weren't popular, and so are being replaced by Pit.

"Pit devrait être le seul représentant de la « vieille école » et des classiques.

Il a enfin affirmé que le nombre total de personnages devrait s’approcher de la quarantaine, laissant de la place pour une quinzaine de nouveaux ainsi qu’un ou deux personnages d’éditeurs tiers."

Pit seems to be the only remaining old-school classics character.

Also, the total number of characters is going to near the forties. ZOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111one
Ahem... leaving room for another fifteen-ish new characters, including one or two third-party characters.


Does it sound real?

That sounds like what people have been saying for years. If it is true it just confirms what we've already assumed. By the looks of that site the info may just be from the rumor mill. Good find though.

This is not new information, it's just floating around the internet pretending to be new information. Gonintendo mentioned it yesterday.

Our position is the same as always. This information can generate good discussion, but should not be treated as fact.
