That is, if they were planned.
Did I say he was telling the truth? No, and it's equally ridiculous to discount a leak just because. I am not taking it as gospel, I'm just keeping it in mind as a possibility. I do, however, trust Spainkiller (I have my reasons), and with how All Star and others' info go hand with his (before he even posted about it) among other things, I find it too specific to be a coincidence.
Yeah Ice Climbers should be back. Wolf has his theme song going for him. Roy was planned for Brawl and his theme is on the Fire Emblem stage. I don't see Wolf not being planned at all with his theme being in the game. Lucas, eh I don't see it.
The Smash 6 listing is reason enough for me to suspect more.
For the most most part it's really all hoping and praying.

I too think people are writing spainkiller off too quickly.
Just curious, what is the Smash 6 listing? I haven't heard of it till now.
Sakurai has stated in the past that characters take about a year to make.
Evidence was found to suggest that Namco-Bandai are hiring staff to work on a so-called "Smash 6". Given that 3DS is Smash 4 and WiiU is colloquially nicknamed Smash 5, Smash 6 seems to point towards post-game DLC.
Okay, so Ice Climbers (If he isn't lazy) and Mewtwo I guess.
Well they can work on multiple characters at once, otherwise this game would've taken literally 50+ years to make.
Another thing that needs to be taken into consideration is that they could be working at multiple characters at once. If they only did one at a time, combined with the amount of characters given, the development period would have been much longer.
That is true. Who knows as well. They have plenty of time to just work on stages and characters now.Well they can work on multiple characters at once, otherwise this game would've taken literally 50+ years to make.
I wasn't taking it literally. Of course they can work on multiple characters at once. And Mewtwo didn't take a year to make. (Assuming he was started to be worked on when the 3ds version was released.)
Berating the naysayers. That'll get them on side.
There is also more too it then that sadly. It's also about what is Sakurai willing to do.
It actually did take 51 years to make but Sakurai is a Time Lord and he brought it back to the present day in his Tardis.Characters take a year to make? There are 51 characters in SSB4 without DLC... good thing it doesn't take 51 years to make complete Smash.
As soon as I read summoner character, I stopped. That doesn't fit Dee and doesn't stay true to his source material.
Obviously, this game has been in development since before 90% of the roster existed.Well they can work on multiple characters at once, otherwise this game would've taken literally 50+ years to make.
This makes sense to me...
people said he had no moveset potential.... but when you look at what the NES Zapper games had to offer... ducks, clay pigeons, tin cans, gunmen, and even the person shooting with the NES Zapper from the fourth wall, one could come up with a crazy unique moveset. she never fought before in the Zelda games... but from what we know of her, she is capable of light magic and she uses light arrows... and she is connected to the goddesses of the Triforce so she gets Din's Fire, Nayru's Love, and Farore's Wind even though Link was the one who used them in the game.she never did anything in Galaxy games... but she is connected to the Lumas... and the Lumas can create launch stars (Up+B) or turn into Power Stars (Final Smash)... Galaxy games used the Wiimote to shoot Star Bits (Side+B) and if you shook the Wiimote, Mario would spin to pick up coins that were around him (Down+B)... and a second player could use a Co-Star Luma to attack enemies that were far away from Mario (Neutral B) so Rosalina becomes a puppeteer style fighter.Obviously this game has been in development since before Masahiro Sakurai existed.Obviously, this game has been in development since before 90% of the roster existed.
At this point, I'm really not feeling Paper Mario. We already have enough Mario characters and with Paper Mario, he would be our third Mario in the roster. Along with that, I feel like Paper Mario isn't popular enough to be considered a DLC priority (for example, if no one wanted Mewtwo, I can guarantee he wouldn't be DLC), along with the fact that other franchises are desperately under represented (
).
Now we know why Sakurai still looks so young.
Bandana Dee is in a higher ranking member of King Dedede's army. It makes sense for him to summon characters. Plus, the helper system was a major Kirby mechanic and even debut in the same game Bandana Dee was made in.
I posted this earlier...
This makes sense to me...
I mean, look at
Or

My point is they don't follow source material all that well.
Despite that, there are some situations in which a character may not have enough potential. Take Chrom, for example. He certainly had potential as a Smash fighter, but most of his potential was already utilized by two other characters already on the roster. Most people tried to work around that by making move sets based around less notable abilities Chrom has such as using lances or healing himself, which, while unique, seem out of place on Chrom. Ultimately, Sakurai found that Chrom lacked enough potential and went with Robin, who had much more overt move set potential and could better represent the Fire Emblem series as a whole than Chrom could.This makes sense to me...
I mean, look at
Or

Yeah, but when you look at it generally, he is basically Dedede's lackey in most of the games he has been. And he's not mainly about summoning members, Dedede is usually the one commanding the enemy's (and Dee's) orders.
Well there's your problem already, Rosalina is basically the ruler of the Lumas in the Galaxy games which makes sense why she's commanding her own Luma in the game, but Bandanna Dee doesn't command the enemies to attack, Dee only follows Dedede's order to attack. That doesn't fit him really naturally
