hmmm..
I imagine if you wanted to test weather or not your mod would crash the game, you would test the mod on one of the most graphically demanding stage as well, right?
I think the dragon quest stage would be a good example of such a stage.
The game crashes because of a file’s size being larger than it should be, though, not because it demands more GPU or whatever.

The Mallow hat also jiggles a bit; I’m highly doubting this is fake.

What if the rest of the time is delegated to the announcement of a competitive Smash circuit? The most dedicated players are gonna be awake to see the announcement in the west and getting ready for bed in the East. Without any modes or costumes or anything, it seems plausible.

Ok I know I just said id be gone but I gotta drop my two cents on the “no announcement” thing

I havent the last like 8 pages but I think theyre flat out lying. They caught on to the leak and are trying to keep the surprise. Theres no way in hell (heh doom) that theyre filling up a 45 minute direct with Terry and a fight stick
Edit: anyways i gotta skedaddle again. I may drop in end of tomorrow but after that im putting on the metaphorical blindfold all the way

Depends on who you ask...my bet is that they'll go for the Game Awards again.

Ok, here's something I'm thinking about: the time relative to the claim.
The only reason we assumed there would be more reveals is due to the length of the video (~45 minutes). I understand they could clarify it wouldn't have any more but looking back on the past smash directs...
The only directs we've ever only got one character announced are the presentations (which average at about 20.3 minutes each) and now Terry's is a huge outlier. No other direct exceeding that average has really shown less than one character, with the one exception being, arguably, the 50 Fact Extravaganza, which was 35 minutes long. Again, times don't count for everything:
August was 26 minutes and 5 characters
November was 40 and only 3 characters

Terry being 45 and only one sounds really weird out loud.

I'm not saying that they're damage controlling or lying or we were overhyped but I have no idea what this could mean for Terry's presentation unless they are damage controlling or telling the truth.
My favorite theory is the... I guess "loophole" is the right word for it, that Nintendo saying there would be no information on unrevealed characters technically leaves room for them to reveal characters at the beginning or something, and then maybe talk about them. I'm not really banking on that, though.

I have not lost any faith in the costume leak until some really damning information comes out but I have lost faith in the Terry presentation.

I just had a thought.. What if we didn't get any character reveals but we ended up getting Character Skins? Y'know how everyone has been clamoring that kinda stuff and with the initial-FP fading out maybe they have a chance to do something new with the DLC.

It's probably not character skins but wouldn't that be great? Sure it's not as good as a brand new character but those are certainly worth being DLC.

I'll never understand what fooled people about the Rayman leak. The character select screen, the most commonly faked thing in all of Smash speculation, except this time it's animated with sound... I just didn't buy it.

For the record, from what I've gathered today, this isn't "spend a little time figuring out" how to make Mii hats work. This is spend untold amounts of time figuring out how to make Mii hats work in a way that no one else in the modding community has figured out yet, and then keep the secret from them just to troll.
Twas a different time. Honestly Rayman was one of the first major fake leaks of the modern era and absolutely the best of its time. It was one of the first to be high quality and in a video format rather than a blurry jpeg. There were certain effects in the CSS that were pretty accurately rendered and no one had really heard of fanmade Smash renders looking that official before Smashified. After the ESRB leak turned out to be legit only a few months prior, it's easy to see why Rayman wasn't disproved outright. It's easy to look back at the one that started it all and say that it wasn't all that great in retrospect, but it was also the one to set the bar that fake leaks would have to pass in the future.

People have made full new 3D renders and assembled them to look like Smash before. People have drawn stuff and thrown it together in a way that looks like Smash before. This is just another evolution in how commited these leakers are to the con. Who's saying they even modded the game at all? It could be any number of tricks and effects that we haven't even really thought about before. If this does turn out real, god bless. But if it doesn't I guarantee there will be a hundred more people saying in the future that this leak was never convincing in the slightest and that there has since been a thousand leaks deepfaking the Mii Brawler into DLC Knack or Mickey Mouse costumes. Why did anyone believe this? It was the easiest thing, anyone could do it!

Saving 5 for the VGAs makes sense if 5 is Doomguy. Doom Slayer clearly appeals to Americans, so an American venue where more than just Nintendo fans are watching makes sense, since it’ll reach more people.

I have no idea why Hilda isn't one of Zelda's alt colors. It would've been a perfect opportunity, given the Alttp/Albw design she has this time around. If that'd be one of the DLC skins, I'd definitely buy it.

I would eagerly take Shadow Dedede as an alt

Maybe custom moves are making a return? I doubt it but it would take up a lot of time if so.

It won’t happen but I’d kill for a Commander Lucas skin.

I'll be honest, I'd like that, though for some it might bring up "This costume should be an echo instead!" or "This echo should have just been a costume!"

That said, give me a Dry Bowser over Bowser or Hilda over Zelda and I'd be pretty happy.

Here are my thoughts on the mii costume leak /w Mallow and Cacodemon (Sorry to mention this out of nowhere, I feel like everyones done talking about it but idc)

-I think Its real, if you remember that mii costume list PapaGenos showed earlier on, it feels like that would be something too small to "piggyback" off of. Plus, there is the file size issue with the mii costume hats.
-(Would that mean Geno, Doomguy, Crash and possibly Ryu all have chances at DLC? Thats a big list..)
-My biggest fear is that Geno gets deconfirmed by the Mallow mii costume (or other MRPG/Square Mii costumes) showing up as a mii costumes for a different dlc character (i.e Terry)
-Im excited but nervous at the same time

Currently 9:59 MST, still up. Don't know what you're doing wrong tho.
Alright nvm the picture you posted is good enough for me.

I wonder why everyone thinks this is a big deal though as they're the exact same joycons from the Smash Bundle. Maybe the people who posted the picture are simply a fan of Smash.

The only way I can see the Mallow/Smithy mii costumes coming with anyone other than Geno is if it's another SMRPG character who gets in as a fighter, which seems unlikely.

Just some random thought I had completely unrelated to leaks/current speculation: Why haven't we got music DLC? I know that characters are the most exciting and important part of Smash Bros, but I'm always so excited to hear some kick*** remixes of some of my favorite video game music. It would also be a good way to add in content that was lacking *cough cough* Xenoblade X music *cough cough*.

Personally, I'd love to get new music from games like Fire Emblem Three Houses (no character please), Pokemon SwSh, Xenoblade 2 (Torna and the base game), Xenoblade X, ARMS, Shovel Knight, and so many more. I think it'd be a good way to add in extra stuff without being too taxing from a development standpoint. Kind of like how Mii Costumes are handled.

Would you guys buy music packs with remixes plus new songs if they were priced well enough?

FF7 needs one of these like freaking burning.

For some reason it seems that the Latin community of Smash has an unjustified hatred of Geno
Every community has an unjustified hatred of Geno lol. I've seen my fair share of latinxs who are VERY into Geno. It's nothing out of the ordinary.

Also might be a way to get around Square's seemingly 2-song-per-character limit if they were done individually. If Geno's not in, SMRPG needs music at the very least.
