I just went and rewatch that segment just now and I didn't see the Mushroom icon any where.
Alright, forgive me; I thought someone else brought up that he used the Mario mushroom icon, and I thought I remembered a picture, but now I don't know if it actually ever comes up in game with the Mii Fighter gear...

It doesn't, here is that segment of the Mii costume reveals: https://youtu.be/WBxMmbhXBrI?t=13s

I watched that, I just wondered if it appeared ingame, say when selecting the gear for your Mii.

I found a video that included selecting gear, though, and no, Mii Fighter gear based on a series doesn't get an icon...

I still wonder what icon Geno would use, though? If not the Mushroom, would it be the "RPG" or something?

The icon will probably be one of the seven stars.

Depends if he’s right or not but


Hold on to your hats we’re getting closer

Theory if true

The first will be a mini/pokemon direct ending with the Pokémon rep then announcing the second smash direct after the character

Oh you know what if 2 directs is true that would kill the box theory since clearly it would prove there’s atleast 2 unqiue fighters left since atleast one for each

Does the Legacy XP Geno actually have that animation...?

'cuz, gosh, I can see how it's heavily photoshopped to even make the polygons seem different if so, but if not, they're just similar.
Extremely similar. But it's specifically the background that gives it away

Where did that PM Geno pic come from for comparison? Did you take the picture?
It's supposedly the actual original image

The geno leak is a photoshopped version of it.

Not a new model

It's the legacy model. We were tricked by the legacy model

I guess my question should have been...WHO provided that picture? Was it the guy from the discord? Did PM have Pictures to show this character off before and someone found this exact picture to create the Geno Render?

I am just genuinely curious.

Well, I know that background is from Brawl's Delfino Plaza.

My only question is if the water actually curves up that much anywhere in the background, and if you can get the camera to take a pic like that in Legacy XP or something. I don't know, and footage online seems blurry.

To me it still looks waaay to different to be the same model.

But honestly i had my doubts anyway strictly for the reason I stated awhile back; based on verge’s comments, no on at square would really risk their job to leak something. I’m still confident geno’s chances are good, but we won’t get confirmation until Nintendo and sqaure decides to reveal him.

Like I said thoug, the original “sassy” geno image looks way too different imo for that legacy model to match. If it really is that model, let’s at least give that photoshop artist credit, he made one hell of a good edit and convincing image, and he/she should at least be proud of the fact that everyone liked its design enough to WANT it to be the actual real model.

Actually about that

I just realized it’s probably another little Mac and shulk situation for the ESRB leak

And the geno is incorrect texture and the hat and eyes are wrong in the clear version
It was photoshopped

Of course the original image is going to have differences

The pose was found. It exists within with the Project M model

Wow, it’s finally dead. Props to whoever made it. It took like 2 months to kill it. Sucks too because the model looked good.

Hopefully if Geno’s in he looks as good, or better.

I realize now that there's a definite similarity between the Legacy model and the image we've been discussing, but in a post-"Shulk is Little Mac" world you should really be more clear about posting a potential debunk than posting a single overlaid image, PsychoIncarnate PsychoIncarnate (even a GIF that flicks between the two would be preferable).

As it stands, it had me wondering whether your post and the subsequent ones were an elaborate joke for minutes on end, and I imagine I'm not the only one.

It's what the person posted that's debunking it.

I didn't make the image. If someone wants to make a GIF, have at it.

Yeah, Geno's fine, sass or no sass.

He still has way too much in his favor. It's not over until it's over, folks. We don't need the words of a barely credible "one leak out there is real" source and a well done fake to remind us of that.

Of course I say that only AFTER I know the Geno leak is dead, but hey, this glass house is pretty comfy all things considered.

Woof... that's a wrap. The pose, the wood grain, even the little bump in the horizon next to Geno's ear is the same...
This is nowhere near "Shulk is a photoshopped Little Mac" levels of reaching, folks. I suggest y'all let this one go; this leak's done for.
100%. It was fun while it lasted as unknown though ngl.

Look on the bright side. this means the actual Geno Render will likely look even better than that one!

Wow, you guys sure drop these things quickly.

I did an image search for the brawl mod one, and didn't find anything of it.

How do you know this wasnt a recent recreation by someone? (after the leak was posted)

Well, it was fun.
I honestly should've expected it to be debunked after I shed some light on the stage, but it's whatever. We went for the Geno leak because it wasn't debunked, but now that it is that doesn't mean we aren't out of the game yet.
Remember that Tansut said it could be either an image or a text leak, he didn't know. We've just been assuming it was an image because we had an image that fit into that hole for a little while. We just gotta move on; we're basically back where we were before Tansut even said anything.

It could've also been a leak that's still in private circles.

So it probably means nothing for us :I

Maybe a glimmer of hope Genobros.

Spawn wave reported this. If this is true two more directs possibly, one could be a general or Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu Let's Go Eevee Direct. The other the final Smash Ultimate direct we've been waiting for.

Hopefully some news we'll see if it's true soon enough.

Spawn Wave dosen't seem like the guy to report on something unless he believed it.

Let's hope for the best.

Just saw it was posted oops well oh well late to the party as usual ah it's fine.

Anyway fingers crossed hope it's something.

I thought of that. but with how well this thing is lining up and how hard it would be to do that with an ingame model from the mod. it feels a little too tinfoil hat to think someone made it just to turn people off the trail.
