I'll go ahead and explain it.

Followup attacks are not necessarily the same as following up separate attacks in a combo. Rather, followup attack exist "within" a particular move. Let me provide and example with my main, El Fuerte.

His Habanero Dash (236+P) has him run forward, but in this run, there are several things he can do.

Backwards Habanero Dash (214+P) - Run in the opposite direction. You can actually dash dance with this. Makes people mad.
[COLLAPSE="Button Followups"]
Pressing these buttons in the Habanero Dash will give you these options.
LP - Stop in place
MP - A overhead bodyslam where you must block high.
HP - A jump in command grab that must be blocked low or evaded.
LK - Step back, used for feinting.
MK - Runs in with a kick which can combo into his super combo among other things.
HK - Slides in causing a knockdown.

From the Backwards Habanero Dash
LP - Stop in place
MP - A overhead bodyslam where you must block high.
HP - A jump in command grab that must be avoided as you can't block it high or low.
Any Kick Button - Jumps back a far distance.
[/COLLAPSE]
With these examples, these moves are only available from the dash. You will have exceptions where an attack is available as both a followup AND a standalone attack.

This kind of followup is used for mixups, making your opponent guess what you're gonna do next, especially on their wakeup. There are other types though, but this example gets the point across.
and unfortunatey fuerte still sucks. especially since they nerfed ultra spark which was like his one really good move.

Finally we get another rumor, I'll add my thoughts later.

Either way for now, the really only believe-able part is the part is about Kid Icarus.

Also link please.

What the heck do all the numbers mean?

Why do Street Fighter people write like that?

Okay. I have two tidbits that further disprove this guy.

1. Apparently, some people have looked on /v/ on 4ch to find the original topic for the rumor, and its not there.'

2. The poster of the rumor on GameFAQs, ChronoCactuar, appears to like posting "inside information". Here is a similar thread he posted on the Mario Kart 7 board:

Yup, it's a fake alright, although I did find the rumor of having "3 stages per game" quite interesting.

You're tempting fate Omega, Gatlin just edited me for double posting.

Anyway, what page is this smash rumor on, I can't find it

Yeah, Fuerte sucks, but he's fun as hell, and I'm good with him.

I don't see so many SF people use it as I do GUilty Gear and BlazBlue players use it. The notation means this:

789
456
123

Those are the directions on a stick, so 236 is a Quarter-Circle Forward Motion while 623 is a Shoryuken motion.

Found it

I can't believe a day after I asked when we'd be getting prophets again, one appears.


I don't like this prophet. I'm going to ignore his predictions

board on 4chan

Edit:
It's a page down ahead, it was posted by Star.
Already found it. It's horrible and should be locked away. Besides, Sakurai hasn't even STARTED Smash yet

What AT's are deserving to be characters, especially if they aren't in any of the main franchises?

Lol what do the numbers and letter mean when it comes to technical?

Also that rumor is absurd simply because it stated "no big franchise like Mario need reps but Starfox is an exception"

sounds like a Krystal fan to me.

DK not getting a new rep? Lucario getting cut? F-Zero and Fire Emblem not deserving more reps? Sakurai focusing on characters more? Lol, those rumors are BS. :laugh:

Of course they are, most of them seems absurd, especially since it stated that Sakurai was focusing on more characters when he clearly said that wasn't his overall thing to do.

I hope most of it is false and it most likely is since development has yet begun, ideas pertaining it? I don't think so.

Okay, so after three days of power outage due to Irene and the electric company, I'm back. At least Irene prolonged school...

Anyway, what happened in the 65 pages that I was gone?

Oh, and the roster was leaked

I have no homework today, so when get home, I'll give my own thoughts as to why this rumor is false.

My thoughts on the rumor:

Sakurai wants to focus more on characters this time
No new characters for "heavily populated" series
No more Donkey Kong characters
No more F-Zero characters
No more Zelda characters
No more Kirby characters

Funny, Omega :p

The roster was revealed again?

Anyway, it's most likely fake. No Mario and Pokemon characters? No Donkey Kong? Seems reaaaally fishy. At least it "confirms" Olimar to still be in it...

You know, I was sort of hoping some good discussion could be extrapolated from that lie (because it doesn't even qualify as a rumor).

While some parts of it are a little believe-able, and some just plain awesome, I'll leave this as my final thoughts on this rumor.

Lucario being cut, but no new characters for major franchises. So Pokemon only gets 3 slots. This rumor is BS. lol

I'm surprised how many people honestly don't believe Nintendo and Project Sora are not currently drawing their plans for the game as we speak. I'm honestly shocked.

Briefly I touched upon that a page ago, but still. Somebody within Project Sora has been delegated with the responsibility for contacting the individual primary and secondary companies within Nintendo.

Oy, I cannot write anymore as I'm on my phone.

Well I do believe they're drawing some plans together, I doubt, however, that the rumor is those plans, if anything it's just someone trying to have some fun by "leaking info".

Although discussing rumors, like you said, is pretty fun. ;)

And in the coming weeks we'll probably be seeing more and more rumors just like this.

On the bright side, this rumor doesn't include Mokka...

The only thing I liked about that silly rumor was the "3 stages per game" thing, even as far as saying "a wanted one" I think it's referring to Saffron City but meh....

Very true, but the rumor did say that lesser frachises would be looked at...

Which is another thing that disproves this rumor.

If they're drawing up plans for the game, shouldn't they be a bit more specific?

Ex. -For Metroid, there will be one new character added. One that fans requested, and was thought to be an impossible addition, but the team have found a way to add them to the game, though it won't be a perfect transition.

One that fans requested? They refer to said character as One?

If information is being passed around how the heck are they supposed to know what they're talking about!

I'm positive it's referring to Saffron City

I'm also positive the characters they are referring to are Little Mac, Saki/ and or Custom Robo

The Wanted Metroid character is obviously Dark Samus
Actually Ridley

Kid Icarus Reps? Medusa or that generic strong guy.

K Rool as an AT is referred.

Overall, I hate the list

Ugg, at this point the only true leaker that can be trusted is Serebii Joe himself.

He was right about much of the information about Brawl, such as Lucario making it in, overall he's the only true legit leaker at the moment that can be trusted in my opinion.

Too bad he's not much of Smash fan. lol

After a quick google search, Mokka seems...eh. It says he has more personality than most other characters, but that's about it...
