Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[Deleted member]

And seriously, giving out schedules like that? I doubt it. Leaker just got to excited so he probably wanted to start leak season early. Plus, we have fallen for an unsourced leak before.

Some people would ask for his source. In the words of a great Filipino meme:

 

[Gentlepanda]

i for one welcome our new improbable overlords

 

[NoOtherPersona]

I'm just baffled by one choice why Claire and not Jill?

 

[Gentlepanda]

for his neutral special, maxwell creates a Gun

 

[PeridotGX]

i for one welcome our new improbable overlords

When a character who undeniably debued on the DS gets in

 

[AntagonisticGalaxyCetacea]

Bros...

 

[Evil Trapezium]

Jonesy, Claire Redfield, Maxwell, Chosen Undead

This comment on 4Chan sums up what I think of that lineup

"Ryu as a solid end to the fighters pass"
"All that garbage after him"
"yikes"

Claire ain't that bad though.

So, what the stance against this leak? Real or fake?

 

[NoOtherPersona]

Maybe we can get some drawn to life content with him lol

 

[Cutie Gwen]

So, what the stance against this leak? Real or fake?

I'm saying fake cause Claire as THE Resi character is never going to happen, though if it's somehow real I'm gonna enjoy the chaos

 

[KatKit]

If it happens it happens; if it doesn't, it doesn't. We won't know until fighter #5 or 6. Personally, I'm not going to entertain it much, but I will say this: IF it's true, it's not the worst thing ever. They're not my most wanted, but I'm down for most of those characters, and the one(s) I'm not would have interesting movesets anyway that I'd love to use in Smash.

Also, Claire is awesome, fight me, Gwen. D:<

Haven't thought about that series in a long while. Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter's ending really messed me up as a kid.

All leaks are fake.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

All leaks are fake.

ChaosZero and peers, Gematsu, Ninka/Vaanrose, and Vergeben would all love to have a word with you.

 

[Deleted member]

Here’s a question: what would you do if your most wanted got in smash?

None of the characters I wanted to see are in Smash yet. I can't believe I'm saying this but Zhao Yun is now my most wanted pick, and I'd be so inclined to brag to all the naysayers who dismissed Dynasty Warriors in Smash how wrong they were if he gets revealed.

As for the apparent leaks, Yeah there's way too much info on there for it to be real. It's the biggest cliche in most leaks nowadays.

I hated it as a kid but I get it now but I still have that bitterness towards it

Only time will tell I guess.

Although 4 post pass characters? Is that all he knows or are there more?

 

[Wunderwaft]

This post aged really ****ing well.

I'm actually surprised Fortnite hasn't been given much of a glance in terms of speculation. We talked about Tracer and other relevant characters, yet we forgot about Fortnite of all games. Epic does have a good relationship with Nintendo, so much so that the Nintendo twitter account tweeted about the Fortnite black out. Now does this contribute to a character for Smash Bros? Maybe and maybe not, but I feel like this is an addition that people have overlooked and it might blindside everyone if it happens.

 

[Schnee117]

They saw your post and decided "**** it, Fortnite time"

Shame I couldn't upload a pic but I was going to post the Advance Ako mag Isip meme.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

All I'm saying is that Nintendo's recently worked with Warner Brothers on Detective Pikachu, and Mario and co. have already crossoved over with Scribblenauts.

I'm not saying Maxwell's in, but he's in.

Also another leakerdude is supporting the 4chan leak.

Yo, long time no see
A leak's been going around
Please PLEASE don't take this as confirmation
However, I can definitely say that there is reason to believe this and, while I can't vouch for it just yet, I believe it for now. Not guaranteed, but I felt I should post it here pic.twitter.com/oTLbLHfoib

Maxwell - Nice.

“Cool, but where the frick is Steve?”

tfw fortnite gets in before minecraft, the top selling game of all time

would feel a little bad getting the 2-year old game over the game that's lasted 10+ years i'll be honest

The last time peple were speculating a Smash character due to their parent company working with Nintendo, it turned out pretty well.

Who is this dude and why are they important

 

[GoodGrief741]

Here's another bit of insider information from Sabi's server. Not necessarily related to the 4chan leak. Quoting again because image uploading here is more spotty than all 101 Dalmatians combined.

That's more believable, if only because it's piggybacking on Hayabusa and only risking it for a character that's highly demanded anyways.

 

[Gentlepanda]

screaming sounds

 

[NoOtherPersona]

I just can't buy this leak it has someone I want but I can't buy this I just can't bite

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

So good ol' Jonesy Fortnite's been amuck in the rumor mill, huh?

So this is the reality we're living in...

I'll take 10, please

 

[Koopaul]

Who is this other leaker dude and why should I care what they post?

EDIT: Gwen already said it.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Like I really want Steve as a fighter, but if Minecraft doesn’t even get a spirit I’m gonna be very disappointed.

I think Fortnite is kinda cool and the default dance meme is funny, and my younger brother plays it so he’d likely think Jonesy in Smash is cool (even if he doesn’t play Smash very often), but not gonna lie it’d make me feel like a hypocrite even if I’d soon get over it and probably enjoy Jonesy anyway.

And I’m kinda mad at myself because Fortnite has nothing to do with Minecraft yet I’m feeling something I’ve been heavily disagreeing with...gosh dang it. Meh, it’ll subside...it already is honestly, like I have nothing against Jonesy it’s just...I don’t know...

I'M MAINING THE HELL OF FORNITE GUY

Who is this dude and why are they important

Apparently, this guy leaked everything from the latest Nindies and said Terry Bogard was in Smash after the SNK leak. Also, people were sus about him apparently being Sabi's alt or something.

 

[7NATOR]

Who is this dude and why are they important

I Believe this other Dude is Sabi's Alt Account. I Believe they were the ones to confirm Terry was in even before Vergeben did

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I mean, predicting Terry after SNK got leaked isn't exactly an achievement tbh

 

[Plank08]

Wait, Fortnite might actually happen??( before LittleBigPlanet?)
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[andree123]

Lol that's why I decided to be the spark in the woods

Let the speculation commence pic.twitter.com/o531UpCEdR

I'm hoping that he leaked Lloyd Irving.

 

[UberPyro64]

Maxwell is just such a bizarre choice to me. I mean, there are so many western characters to choose from, like Doom Slayer, Crash Bandicoot, Lara Croft, Gordon Freeman, Master Chief, etc. But they go with Maxwell? It's hard to buy it tbh.

 

[Evil Trapezium]

So it's safe to assume that according to that "leak", Sakurai saying "Adding more characters to please the fans" was mistranslated?
