1. I know, that was my fault. I regret that.

2. I do admit I got a bit too heated there, but it just makes me feel weak when I'm called "the baby of SmashBoards". I should calm myself down though/

Thanks for helping me.

Anyways...

No one is calling you the baby of Smashboards apart from yourself, from what I can see. Don't be so hard on yourself.

None of the adults here properly act their age anyway. ;)

All of you are so nice, that if character A gets in, I will be happy, and one reason would be that I would be happy for the people that wanted character A.

For example, NonSpecificGuy wants Ryu Hayabusa. If Ryu Hayabusa wins, I will be very happy for NonSpecificGuy and happy overall, even though I have not played Ninja Gaiden.

Also wow, that is a lot of effort in that article.

Lyn. Because I know people are sick of Fire Emblem but I really want Lyn.

I have a question though.

Why are 14 year olds in SmashBoards more mature than me? I'm always venting and getting into awkward arguments, while they are mainly chill. I know two fourteen year olds in SmashBoards.

Don't worry about people looking down on you here because as a general rule, they don't. At least, that's not the impression I get here or got when I was a teen here. And trust me, I was way worse.

If there's something you don't like about how you conduct yourself here though, you do have the power to try and change that. The beauty of online forums is that it is so much easier to think before you speak; There's no conversational pacing to keep up, so if you need time to think about what or how you want to say something, you can just do that. I'd take full advantage of this fact if you find that you'd like to word things differently, or not say them at all.

Sure it can take an upwards of 30 minutes to write even something simple like this (EDIT: This one probably took me about 20 minutes to write), but if you say what you want how you want it, I'd call that an absolute win.

Why is my brain like this???

I've got a good decade on you and my six year old nephew asked me "why do you have so many stuffed animals, you're a grown up". Called out by a kid who can barely wipe his own butt.

Meanwhile my older brother is a neurosurgeon with two kids and last time we played Halo he teabagged me like four times.

We've all got our ****, hun. I know it's the last thing a seventeen year old wants to hear, but enjoy not being an adult while you can.
Don't grow up too fast, you'll get boring.

And for gods sake, stop beating yourself up and comparing yourself to people. I know it's tough, but no good will come of that. And before you reply with a further complaint, just take a moment and try to take that to heart. Sleep on it.

You get major points for that gif, lol.

Guilty as charge.


Proud of it.



None of my family is though.
Long ago I slid comfortably into the role of black sheep and it's fit me well ever since. :reverse:

Hey, if people wanna make their living drawing lewd pictures, I'm not gonna hold it against them. You do what ya gotta do.
I feel the same, I'm not going to attack them drawing stuff like that, even if I'm still not ok with it.
But hey, if they want to, that's fine.

Itsuki Aoi & Chrom or Tsubasa Oribe & Caeda from Tokyo Mirage Sessions Encore, I felt guilty whenever I tried to bring these characters up in discussion knowing someone in the Smash community are sick of Fire Emblem and want a different Shin Megami Tensei contents that isn't from a spin-off.

I kinda envision their Smash trailer will feature a battle among the fighters, then suddenly Reincarnation (Kiria version) start playing in the background, and the transition to their introduction to join the fight. Plus, I don't think JP vocal track is a issue since they manage to get 9 JP vocal track in Fire Emblem Heroes. Source: Wings Carry Me from FEH Tap Battle

I play games with M-labels and plays guns with lotsa guns, blood, and sex so I'm totally a mature dude.

Qbby would be a neat little addition to Smash I feel...and it would check "Q" off the alphabet. So far we are missing a (unique) A, E, Q, X?
Yeah, Qbby would be cool, although I'd see him as more of a WTF character like Phoenix Wright in UMvC3 or the USA Sports Team in the KOF series. Also, I have a few ideas for the other alphabet people.
  • For the Letter A: Alm, Acooma Akuma, Athena Asamiya, Alex Jones, Alucard, Arle
  • For the Letter E: Ezio, Edelgard, Eggplant Wizard, Euden
  • For the Letter X: X

Sort of. There are plenty of characters & games that I like that I know that I'd love to see but as I think more and more about them I feel guilty for applying the context of Smash to them when in reality I just want a new game or to just make myself laugh.


Also I kind of want to make a Waluigi joke here, but I unironically like him. :waluigirose:

DISCLAIMER: I am 75% sure this is something very adult, and that HGV might just be teasing a new product for her store. I'm just doing this for fun for the sake of speculation.

I tried playing with the colors on Photoshop to see if they were color adjusted to mess with us even more. For the life of me, couldn't figure it out. Instead I decided to draw the rest out. I will say though, the thing on the leftmost does have a tint of a cooler purple in the darker parts, while everything is more fleshy.

EDIT 9: People were able to deduce the "nose" is at least some kind of a mouth.

EDIT: So I shrunk one of them, and it almost seems like a red/pink/orange ruffled skirt and a thigh. If not those, it could also be a ruffled sleeve and upper arm. Likely the former given the general theme of that Twitter user lmao. Can't completely say that it's definitely a red skirt due to the very low res, and could be a highlight from the actual rendering. Do we know any video game characters with a ruffled skirt or ruffled sleeve?


EDIT2: Here's another take on the same image. It can also look like an ankle with some sort of black shoes, and still a ruffled dress, albeit longer.


EDIT5: I was not aware there was a bigger version of one image. please disregard the "skirt theory" image, which I already deleted from this post anyway.

EDIT 6: This actually looks like someone wearing a brown leather jacket, with a black longsleeve undershirt, and some kind of long weapon. Can't really make out the lighter stuff, though. Travis Touchdown, Ryo Hazuki, both have brown leather jackets. Claire Redfield has a red one, but it could probably look brown in certain lighting.



Just for fun, it could also be some long black haired person:


EDIT7: Flipped sideways, it actually looks like some kind of landscape with a bridge in the background.


EDIT3: This is so far what I think about this one. Nothing too substantial although I should note Ganondorf and Urbosa both have dark oliveish skin and orange/reddish hair...


EDIT4: I almost thought this part was easily a crop of Banjo's nose. I compared it to both renders of him in Smash, and the spacing between his nose and snout are very different.

Ya know


Props to you for doing all this sleuthing for what is potentially cropped porn. I'm legitimately impressed. For what it's worth, you have my upmost respect.

These are the kind of posts I was hoping for.

Honestly, this is high quality sleuthing and your drawings are honestly pretty great.

Haha! I shall foil your plans by referring to him as: Mega Man X!
Ah, blast! You've foiled my plans for the last time!

I want everyone on this thread to remember if there asking why someone with a rocky history like Hot Girl is giving hints and teasing and seemly know who it is, but not someone like Grubb, Verg or Emily.. It's that they probably already know aswell

It's just that they tend to avoid leaking Smash stuff due to how extreme how beauvoirs can be, remember the non English fellow form ResetERA that rencetly retired?

Which is why probably HotGirl is using that as a advantage to get eyes and engagement for her profile while also not giving it directly so people don't potentially harass her when it's eventually reveals it's not Geno the most wanted of the community of the day is

Also why y'all posting porn to each other?

I mean, the thing is though we also shouldn't consider Hotgirl instantly worth our trust considering their VERY rocky history.

And just 2 nights ago, NateDrake admitted he hadn't heard anything in regards to Smash in regards to the Spanish twitter leak.

You know, I've been thinking, never a good idea, I know, but isn't it kinda funny that we're starved for Smash news yet when there's a potential leak that can be discussed to pass the time and theorycraft and ****, people always try to shut it down and say we need to go back to having literally nothing to talk about? While this case is more of a grey area because of the nonzero chance it's cropped porn, I've seen that happen a lot over the last few months as if trying to talk about anything else is a bad thing

I'm more than willing to discuss this.


But it's like you said, there's a non-zero chance it's cropped porn, which, would be very unfortunate to keep referencing over and over. Like, hey, if Hotgirlvideos69 actually drops us a new character on our head, holy **** pigs can fly now, but it's that fear of... "What if it's actually just porn"?

I think Nintendo has more influence in choosing the base additions than people realize, and I think Sakurai has more influence in choosing the DLC than people realize. Not in every case, but overall I think it's more collaborative than for which people give credit.

And yes, I'm aware of the statements that would seemingly contradict this belief.
So you think Nintendo had anything to do with:ultkrool: appearing?

Hey, making a series of flat jokes shows how very mature I am for my age.;)

Yeah but that's just this specific instance which again, is more of a grey area and understandable in not wanting to show porn on a site that wants to be somewhat friendly for minors, but in other cases without this grey area, people still try to go "IT'S FAKE MOVE ALONG NOW CEASE ALL DISCUSSION ABOUT ANYTHING INVOLVING THIS" the second one raises skeptism

I feel like a lot of us are just jaded, ya know? We've been through this song and dance for years now that, unless something has a sizable mountain of evidence, it's just a dime-a-dozen leak anymore, and to folks that believed Grinch, I figure they probably have a hard time believing leaks like this due to them seeing how easy it is to pull a bamboozle.


Now when people like Shinobi, Imran, etc speak, then yeah, I trust those guys pretty damn well, though they're not without fault either, they're only human and schedules can be changed internally/leak bait can be fed, but for those guys, I'll pretty much take what they say to heart personally.



Now as for THIS leak in particular...? Well, it's... something, alright.


Chance it's cropped pornography
Chance it's a fake
Chance it's real



I will say one thing.

If the image on the left isn't a Mouth like a lot of people think it is, then it's a nose, and if it's a nose, coupled with all the orange and whites in the image, then it's ****ing Crash Bandicoot, there's no other orange and white character with a big, black nose like that that I can think of.

Thank you. I've felt the same way for a while. Hotgirl is one thing because they have been so wrong all the time, but when there is a 4chan post that is almost certainly fake it's fun to at least discuss it briefly. I for one would much rather see discussion about a fake leak compared to seeing people post their most wanted lists for the umpteenth time. There are only so many discussions one can read about Geno before they lose their mind.

Plus, it's a bonus when the fake leaks are about someone other than the top 20 or so characters that get discussed. Even if said character is unlikely it's cool to see opinions on them.
