I'm taking everything SamusHunter says with a grain of salt, as we all should.

You guys don't want another Sabi situation, do you?
A grain of salt? Dude you should chuck it over your left shoulder instead. Not only will it stop you from getting bad luck but it will also help you ignore people who act like they have Smash info.

As a leaker, I can tell you that the next character has normals used with the A button and special moves with the B button, they can also shield and jump.
Jokes on you, the next character plays like Min Min. :4pacman:
I’ve talked with some very credible sources and can definitively say the next character will in fact be playable. :4pacman:
Does any of you know have any info on whether the last character might be able to grab other characters?

If Gwen's really a leaker...
Can she tell us if the next character will have 7 alternate colors?
Checkmate. 😈 😈 😈

I mean, if it isn't different.... I don't really know why they would make an AT just for Fire Emblem.
To allow people to see some of their favorite characters that wouldn't have a chance of getting in the first place. With Fire Emblem playable characters being focused on the leads, a Fire Emblem AT would allow non-lead characters, as well as some elements that help make up Fire Emblem's gameplay, to appear in Smash.
  • Like a Pegasus Knight like Caeda or the Whitewing Sisters doing their Triangle Attack.
  • Or a Beast unit like the Laguz from the Radiance games or the Taguel from Awakening.
  • Or a Dancer that buffs your character, like Azura or Ninian.
  • Or an Assassin character like Jaffer that uses the special skill Lethality which is a one-hit kill in Fire Emblem, but could be a very powerful attack in Smash.
A Fire Emblem AT item wouldn't be that much different from an AT or Pokeball, but considering that the Fire Emblem games have a huge cast of characters per game with only the leads really having a chance as playable characters, seeing the non-lead characters as Assists would be great for those who want to see some of their favorite characters or classes in Smash, and showcase some cool stuff from FE to Smash players who don't know Fire Emblem that the lead characters wouldn't show off, like Fire Emblem's version of a Werewolf.

Some Nintendo news.

The amount is relatively modest compared to the amount that a lot of western company CEOs get even when those other companies lay off a lot of people (compared to when Iwata cut his own salary to avoid laying off employees during the Wii U era).

There was a problem fetching the tweet

It's nice to know Nintendo is doing that right, at least...

So PapaGenos just uploaded a new vid, but it's not the speculation video many are looking forward to.

He's sick with a cough and has not even started recording, so looks like we'll have to wait a bit more for that video to drop.

Hey, take this with a grain of salt, but I have this source who says that they can confidently confirm that CP11 is most definitely not Joker, Luminary, Banjo & Kazooie, Terry Bogard, Byleth, Min Min, Steve, Sephiroth, Pyra & Mythra or Kazuya Mishima. I have no clue if they can be taken seriously or not, so again take it with a grain of salt.

A female Chinese character from a fighting game that focuses on punching and kicks a lot that wears yellow and a female Chinese character from a fighting game that focuses on punching and kicks a lot and wears blue.
Totally nothing in common. :ultpacman:

As someone who was never a fan of the leaker worship going around for a while, I’m really glad leaks have been basically dead this entire pass. Hope it continues in the next game as well.
They haven't been dead, there just hasn't been any specific leaks that got a lot of support. Perhaps the fanbase has learned its lesson. Yeah, there are still tons of them thrown out there though.

to be more specific "real" and "believable" leaks.

Dumb leaks made by typing something up in ten minutes will probably persist until the sun burns out.

Don't forget, she called you blue!

Yellow?



Blue?

So this question has probably been asked before but who’s is everyone’s top 5 safe picks (picks that are highly likely) for the last spot.

At this point, who can call any character "safe"?

There's only one rule in a world where Nintendo gravitates towards unexpected characters: You're either in or you're not.

I don't think safe is the right word considering it's either they are in or they are out at this point. Anything goes is now the game. That aside,
  1. Master Chief
  2. Crash Bandicoot
  3. Chosen Undead
  4. Phantasy Star character
  5. Octolings

I mean

At this rate, there are no more safes for me. I will just take my chances wildly guessing who it is at this point. Could be anyone.
