So someone on 4chan tried had this huge "Im a Nintendo Employee, AMA and I'll leak it!" saying ballot winners are "Toad, Waddle Dee, Tetra and Dixie"....all characters that have a hard time even making it in the top 10 in popularity.

If any of these characters make it in, then what was the point of even holding the poll in the first place?!
Not believing the leak either. But about those characters "having hard to get into Top 10". Discount characters with big issues (ICs, Banjo), characters with in-game roles, and non-iconic third-parties (like Shovel Knight), and you might notice that some of those (mainly Dee and Dixie) might make it to Top 10 fairly often.

Home... where else would I be?
Indeed.

Somehow I feel, yet again, the 3DS limitations are to blame for Smash Run's unfulfilled potential. Even if I couldn't sabotage the enemies during the Smash Run, I can't even adjust the number of CPUs or their difficulty, or the length of time Smash Run lasts. Those things should be the bare minimum of parameters you can set. If you actually want some replayability, allow us to select which enemies and after-Run final battles show up kinda like Item Select (which we can't even adjust the frequency on)

The 3DS version SUCKS. It's my least favorite Smash entry and the only one I currently own.

It appears unlikely we will get a Direct this month. There's always September.
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS is the only version of Smash 4 I have. But, it is the reason why the Ice Climbers and Pokemon Trainer were cut, and why Sheik and Zero Suit Samus were separate characters. Am I the only person who liked the Ice Climbers BEFORE they were cut?

Gone are the days were people used King K. Rool to make their fake leaks credible. Now everyone jumping on to Dixie because "If its not K. Rool, its gotta be Dixie".
That Mii costume is to blame I tells ya.

whoa whoa, I feel like i'm missing something here. Whats with all these rumors of dixie kong and inkling?
Just a 4Chan rumor that @Tortilla Noggin found in the Daisy thread and posted here a few hours ago. It's just another rumor as of now. Take it with a grain of salt as usual.

Ok i might get a little hate for this comment but why dixie kong for a Donkey Kong rep? I think dixie kong is a good choice for a smash character, but the fact that king k rool is the big name right now for a DK rep makes no sense.. Dixie kong would be cool but do we really want dixie for the next DK rep? What if she does end up being a semi clone? I'm not really that interested in playing another monkey. We have two monekys already. We need a new animal and reptile. King K Rool would be a freash new fighter! With a fresh new attitude and a great addition to smash. Out of all female characters, Krystal would be the best pick for me just because she would have a more unique move set. I'm fine with wolf, I just hope they change him up.. especially that final smash :// but i hope this is a fake. The fact that we fans are telling Nintendo who we want, they know k rools popularity is high. They better give us k rool for a new DK rep. I don't want any clones/ semi clones/ tri clone for this ballot. All characters should be brand new!

Forgive me but i don't want snake to come back. I know people like snake but he doesn't belong in smash. He feels more out of place than ryu. There some third party characters that fit into smash and some that just would seem off. Snake is one of them for me.. I don't want snake to return. I'll only buy snake if they have king k rool as a character. Also if inkling was going to be a fighter, then there should be no problem adding king k rool considering they both have costumes. I'm calling this "leak/rumor" FAKE

Well a lot of people seemed to believe and were kept asking for hours
http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/307096139

Judge for yourself. (The fact the person claims they are Japanese and don't speak english well...yet knew the US pricing conversions was a red flag for me)
I don't trust anything from 4Chan, and after having a look at it, it just screams fake.

Personally, I never trust anything unless they have definitive proof like video footage or something.

I honestly want to find more of these fake leaks just to see what **** they come up with.

Like the one which was K.Rool's trophy but angled.

Pssh, those fake leaks aren't true because I AM THE TRUE LEAKER EXTRAORDINAIRE!
The clear winner of the ballot is New Super Saiyan Pichu Bros 2 for Wii U Alpha Super Turbo Mode now with Amiibo functionality.

Smash trailer.

The flaming cross logo begins. It cuts to pitch blackness. Suddenly a red veiny eye pops open, visible in the darkness. The scene lights up. It's K. Rool's face...

...then it zooms out and he has an apple in his mouth. He's roasting on a spit. Naked Snake is nibbling on a roast Rool leg.

He stands up and faces the camera. "Kept you waiting, huh?" and then he burps.

I would laugh, be hyped to play as Snake, and cry all at the same time

Don't really care for Snake. Would rather have K Rool. 0/10 would not recommend. Too much water.

I don't care.

I only want Snake because he's a Smash veteran and it's annoying that he's not in the new one.

If DK gets another rep I'd rather have it be Funky Kong.

So, I finished my first video. Of course, it's about K. Rool in Smash Bros. It's not going to be called an animation, though, since I literally made this in one day (since I will be busy soon and wanted to get my video out there). And, also, as a warning, I did this all with a mouse and a phone microphone. In the future, hopefully I'll be able to get a drawing tablet and actual microphone, but this was the best I could do with my limited supplies. Please enjoy.

@ BKupa666 BKupa666 , do you still have the DK Rep pic handy?
Not on mobile, but its thread still exists somewhere.

The 4chan leak was proven false when the mods in the NintenZone convinced him to make a Smashboards account, then checked his IP. Turns out he's not a Japanese guy, but some slob from Quebec. Next.

That other leak was from GameFAQs, huh? Sounds shady. So, the breakdown would be Snake for worldwide, Isaac for the West and Dixie for Japan? That's silly, K. Rool is more wanted than the latter two in both regions, and "give each region a character" is a dumb fan-made idea anyway. I call BS.

Everyone their tastes. While I, like everyone here, want K.Rool, I still respect your opinion. Funky is a cool guy ape.

Its nothing against Quebec, but the guy was trying to pass off as a Japanese person leaking info, but he wasn't from Japan, so obviously he's just some idiot trying to get attention.

i have to say, that snail totally looks like something that could've been a DKC enemy during the rare era.

Actually, it's a phone. A snail-phone, and it can also be a camera... yeah, I know it's weird.

Yeah, I know. I was trying to make some kind of joke... I don't know...let's move on.

Nothing at all, he could have been a slob from anywhere, sitting in a basement and faking crappy Japanese to string along bored and/or gullible Smash fans, he just happened to be from there.

Well, I have even less faith if it's from 4chan. GameFAQs at least had one legitimate text leak from ChaosZero for Brawl, but 4chan has had zero (image leaks are a different story).

But yes, Dixie has been a staple of fake leaks for years and years, because people still believe she's next in line for any and all open Smash spots for whatever reason. Too bad this one's internal logic is inconsistent..."We followed the ballot for Isaac and Snake, the former of whom has 'no future,' but K. Rool? Ha, please, shoehorn in a consolation prize DK Rep instead."

So i've been randomly doing a side project of cleaning up and revamping/shading an old sprite of every pokemon from the gen 2 pokemon games lately(and unlike a lot of revamp projects i'm really picky about sticking as close to the art style from that time as much as possible and almost always strictly limiting myself to the confines of the sprite's original line art.)I completed the totodile line a while back.

Thanks for watching the video! I am definitely doing lip synching in my next video. This was a combination of me wanting to get out a video in a day and to help generate interest for K. Rool (to show how menacing and manipulative he is). I have some plans in the works (my next idea is to have Kaptain K. Rool get stubborn calls from his regretful henchmen).

This is a huge problem with the logic of this leak. If they closely follow the ballot and bring back Snake and add Isaac, you can damn well bet they'd add K. Rool over Dixie.

Someone should gather a bunch of video game crocodiles/alligators and put them all in one picture with K Rool leading the charge.

Thankfully it's fake. It seems almost no one can pull off a good fake except for Artsy Omni w/ Rayman. Is it that hard to make it seem half believable? Hold on, I'm going to go make a 4chan account right now... JK
