Fake. Unless :4mii: somehow got cut for whatever reason this late in development.
No, Mii Fighters are quite likely a separate option, as people have suggested for some time. They probably don't even have a roster slot. If this is real (the renders look real enough), its clearly not the final roster.


That said, I'm positive I've seen the Shulk and Dark Pit renders SEVERAL times on past fake leaks before. The icons I saw looked exactly like those ones.

"Separate option"? As in,.......huh? People suggesting it makes it real?

Well, i could see that being real, with the Big 3 being used to "hype" mister suckurai's new crappy gimmick that will render several stages downright unplayable after a few novelty matches. Seriously, Dark Pit is the bottom of the barrel. Sakurai should just step down altogether from the next installment.

I really hate to bring this up, but...



We've all seen this, right? I'm still hoping that K. Rool might show up, if its real.
Things I feel skeptical about this picture here.
- Lucina not being grouped with the Fire Emblem franchise
- Dr. Mario getting a slot as a separate character again?
- Lack of Ice Climbers and no Wolf
It looks to be incomplete as there are no Ridley and K. Rool. Can't help but feel a little nervous about this.

I can't believe its real, but...

We might just be in the same scenario that the pre-Brawl fandom went through in late 2007-early 2008.

Guys, I'm scared.

I can't help but get nervous either, but I think this "leak" if real proves there's more characters, at least one more. If the roster was really 48, they'd have just make it 10 characters wide, especially since apparently they changed the plan of having the character names right below the characters in this roster so it wouldn't matter if they decreased the size of the character icons.

Someone said the leaker hadn't unlocked everything yet, so there's still some hope. But cutting Lucas and Wolf and adding Dark Pit is enough to warrant a kick in the butt from the director's chair.

Am I the only one seeing how messed up Wario's eye looks? I feel like he is staring into my soul.

This new leak makes me nervous. The layout is all weird and there are no names for the characters, but yet the Duck Hunt Dog, Bowser Jr. and Shulk models look convincing. I hope this one is fake.

I'm pretty sure I've seen that Shulk icon before on past fake leaks. Same with Dark Pit, and Wario appears to have been dragged straight from the SSE cutscene where he attacks Lucas and Ness.

I don't think I believe in this leak anymore. There's too much going against it, and considering that it seems to be based on the Ninka "leak", where are the Chorus Kids?

K. Rool is safe for right now. I just can't believe that someone like Dark Pit could get in over him.

I'm calling fake.. the render of Gannondorf looks straight out of Twilight Princess gameplay, screenshot of Wario was probably taken out of the first Brawl trailer.

That and there's no good reason Dr. Mario should have his own character slot - there's practically a 100% chance he's not an individual fighter

Yeah. [Ganondorf] He's almost in complete darkness. Makes me feel a bit better here.

I know I should take this as fake but that 3D model of the Duck Hunt Dog is kinda scaring me. I have never seen a model in fake leaks that look like that, i'm starting to sway towards it being real. Please help me.

There's talented fakers out there. They've proven time and again their capable of fooling a significant portion of the fanbase.
I just wish they wouldn't though. It's getting too chaotic and stressful now. Same goes for actual leakers.

People who believe this leak are hilariously gullible.
I would normally agree, but the fact that history may be repeating itself yet again keeps me back from completely disregarding it. I think it would be wise to wait it out a bit and see what happens.

Otherwise, I think both sides are jumping the gun here. But it happens all the time with leaks anyway.

I'm trying to clarify to people to not just disregard the leak outright, although I personally think the evidence leans more towards "well-done" fake than actual legit leak.

This leak is fake. No need to worry. Besides, it was already riding on the coattails of an already skeptical "leak" that didn't even claim that those were everyone.

If Dark Pit and Dr. Mario get in over K. Rool, then I will literally boycott the game.

The leak isn't guranteed fake as much as I want it to be.

It is just as likely real(if not more) as fake. We should be worried imo.

*pours one out for what may be the King's final hour* Goodnight sweet monarch. You may be forgotten by Sakurai, but your tyranny will live on in our hearts. ;_;

Only thing that will save him now is if Sakurai develops the next DKC game. Then in SSB5 we'll get K. Rool, Dixie, and Cranky, as well as the entire Kremling Krew as adventure mode enemies, all the animal buddies as Assist Trophies, and Gangplank Galleon+Krazy Kremland as stages.

On the topic of stages, the leak didn't show off ANY new DK Stage (or at least from what I could tell)

Is it just me, or does Game & Watch's hand go outside of his box? Would that prove (or at least suggest) that the leak's fake?

Forgot multiple PotDs with K. Rool and Dixie beating the crap out of Samus.

This is what I call BS on. There's no Kirby stages AT ALL, either.
Another thing I noticed is the DLC part. From what I know DLC hasn't been confirmed yet or could maybe in the talks. How did the leaker know about characters who, according to the leak, are maybe DLC? Or even if the game will have DLC at all?

As convincing as those renders look, I don't buy that leak yet because the guy hasn't shown a single screenshot of those new characters during actual gameplay. A render can be easy enough to design, but a convincing game model? Not so much...

Also, I'd have to see it to believe that we're getting absolutely nothing new from DK whatsoever aside from a token Wii U stage, despite having a revival that outsold Sakurai's baby and Awakening multiple times over.
