Why some of you is upset is beyond me, People lost the point of these reveals! it's not about the excitement, it's all about the content, if it was leaked, so what ? as long the content is great (Shulk is a great character) why are you upset!
Because I like being hyped over reveals

potential is limitless if you know nothing.

It's about the journey, not the destination. Don't smack me in the face with the destination as I'm leaving the station.

Xenoblade director retweeted it?

I knew it all along. Shulk confirmed.

I'M ALMOST RIGHT ABOUT SOMETHING!

But then how do you expect to pay for your train ticket, since each destination has a different price relative to distance- *shot*

...Sorry, I had to. :p

So.... let's say Sakurai gives us a Newcomer now and one in August.... anyone think he's doing this because he doesn't want them to get 'leaked' via Youtube, much like his stance about the SSE?

Yeah, to be honest I am really sick of the Gematsu leak, all the characters in the leak are just boring now, I won't be hyped. I hope it's king k. rool though :happysheep:

Personally, the only character I really want out of this is Professor Layton, but there is no specific reason for me to expect him.

Imagine, Samus is fighting Fox, Kirby and Rosalina (all space themed character if you didn't notice already), and suddenly Ridley's theme plays, and the space dragon drops down and starts wrecking everyone. After all hope is lost, a light shines, and Xenoblade's music starts playing. A beam of energy bursts from off screen and knocks Ridley back, and the camera pans to reveal... Wii Music Band.

WII MUSIC BAND ORCHESTRATES VICTORY!!

Screen transitions to Sakurai, "As you can see, Ridley will be a boss in the Pyrosphere arena, but just in time to combat him is none other than Wii Music Band." Cut to gameplay footage of the Wii Music Band showing off it's moves. "Wii Music Band is the first four character fighter, using songs from games, even from 3rd party developers. I'm sure all of you are wondering where is Shulk, but don't worry, Shulk is in the game." An image of a Shulk trophy is shown. "As shown with our Wonder Red trophy, the new Super Smash Brothers will include trophies of 3rd party characters who have history on Nintendo consoles."

"Oh, and one more surprise, the man behind the Gematsu leak." Then the Xenoblade developer walks on screen, and they both turn towards the camera and say in unison, "Ridley is too big." and start laughing maniacally.

Just throwing out the possibility of the Xenoblade guy just screwing with everyone and preparing the ultimate troll video.

So basically we all know about the retweet that just occurred. As much as I want Shulk in the game, I still want to be surprised...

I hope for the next smash game on the next nintendo system Smashboards makes a spoiler free subforum for people who doesn't wish to be spoiled by leaks, but that's just me.

...

they're will probably be *penis synonym* that will purposely post leaks there though..

Just remember guys. We can support our favorite character, but no need to bash other people's character. Almost every character has strong points and are deserving of a spot on Super Smash Bros. Don't get discouraged just because someone leaked the character and not yours.

Not really, the main point of these reveals are really the surprise and excitement, why else is the Smash4 site not only very barebones compared to Dojo, but heavily focused on the roster. With these leaks, it is less about "who's in!" And learning about the newcomer and the content, but about "the leak was right!" and speculations. You can't expect the unexpected when you already know of the unexpected.I doubt Samurai would be okay without some surprises, he does not want another Brawl Dojo.


I ain't even mad.

As far as I'm concerned, Shulk supporters and Chorus Men supporters gotta stick together. Chrom was likely without the leak, but it's all Shulk and Chorus Men have really! So Iam hyped nonetheless, because a confirmation for Shulk is a confirmation for Chorus Men!

Maybe it might be like the Greninja trailer where it shows a vetran and a newcomer.

If so I wouldn't mind mind seeing this twisted duo:

I would argue that they were all fairly unlikely without the leak. Probably Chrom most of all due to his exact role already being filled by two existing characters.

Just want to clarify if a sal newcomer is confirmed, it will adds good amount of credibility (implying he didn't have enough because it has more than enough). It doesn't mean it HAS to be real because it technically can be partially true.

Leaks never gets deconfirmed or confirmed without objective proof. To confirm this leak, I would need to see objective evidences of all the characters which of course can only be known after September 13.

In other words, it's not confirmed and it will never be until September 13 if it's confirmed. What this leak needs however is high consideration because it really has a rare amount of credibility that shouldn't be here if it was a fake but that's subjective.

Though, there's absolutely no proof (not even from the leak itself) that those are the REMAINING newcomers. Not only it can't be confirmed until release but it's also objectively false with Rosalina. I still don't know why people got to the point of dropping support because of an unconfirmed statement that is objectively false based on assumption on a leak that can't be confirmed until September 13.

With that in mind, it can be anything.

Oh wow 11 pages. I'm a little late to the party.

I have no predictions on who the newcomer will be. I'll just be wrong. :p

So hyped though. :colorful:

Yep, it's probably going to be Shulk this time, since the Xenoblade director (Takahashi?) retweeted it. It might be someone else, though.

I tend to agree with you, I just don't find Shulk or Chorus Men very hype-worthy. And as time passes I'm starting to fall out of love with the idea of Chrom. Would much rather have Robin.

But, as I've said before, there has yet to be a newcomer in Smash 4 that has hyped me up (I have already admitted that there will likely never be another newcomer reveal that gets me as pumped as I was when Pokemon Trainer was announced). So despite the fact that I'm stoked for this game, it's not nearly the same level of stokage that I had for Brawl. A single newcomer could change that. Paper Mario or Robin, mainly.

Though I'd settle for just having Ivysaur or Lucas confirmed

I actually just hyped him in his thread now if you don't have enough :)

Yep. That's the only questionning I have. If it is real, is it the remaining newcommers? I may be not fan of the remaining "Sal characters" (I love Rhythm Heaven, but I think there's better characters than Chorus Mens - but if they are true, I'll play them), but they don't bother me. But being the last ones? THAT would bother me a bit (I love more SSB4 newcommers than Brawl's newcommers, so that's ok).

I think some characters would be missing.

It could be Shulk, but with all the unpredictability and stuff, it could be Chrom, the Chorus Men, or an unexpected newcomer. Still, we should see what happens on the newcomer trailer.

Seriously if it is Shulk, that guy who retweeted it is a ****ing moron.
Next Level Games did the same for Little Mac's Direct, but everyone was too caught up on the fact that it fell on Valentine's Day and DKC:TF's JP release, so everyone was fear-mongering over a Diddy+Dixie duo :laugh:

The thing that honestly bugs me with this statement a lot is ridley.

I won't explain (it's too long, will be off topic and I did it in his thread) but according to my though on his chances, this statement would be pretty likely to be disprove again. The problem though is that if he's not revealed before release, it will still be discussed (and I honestly am becoming annoyed of this leak mainly because it shouldn't get THAT much debates, just high consideration).
