almost forgot another important point. This one flat out conflicts with Tama's leak. At least given the data we know, there are 3 placeholders. While more can happen true, if this information was at this point then that would mean those 3 were already planned, meaning those 3 placeholders would be for them. With only 3 placeholders at this point, it basically says flat out SK can't be a ballot character released in this time frame.

So I'm late to this, but I wanted to share it anyway. Yesterday on IMBD, Riku from Kingdom Hearts voice was credited for Smash Bros. That's all I have to say.

Anyone can edit IMBD. It's not a reliable source at all.

Also I see gameonion gameonion shared this to Reddit. Speaking of sharing, Jje09 Jje09 I have some questions for you. I've never seen you in the Nintenzone before. Yet here you are, with a screencap of this post in question posting it 8 minutes after that imgur was uploaded. I looked at Gamefaqs and Reddit and they saw this only after. PushDustIn PushDustIn do me a favor and check Neogaf. Anyway.

It's a strange coincidence you just happened to stumble on this. Tell me, were you the one who uploaded that screen cap? I'll even go one better and ask, perhaps you were the anon 4Chan user posting that "for props". You sharing this after the reveal and the placeholders being found is certainly suspicious given all the info I can currently see.

I think you are mistaken. No one ever confirmed that the first two slots were for pre-ballot. It was speculated but with the lack of the release of those 2 characters, it's more likely that those two characters will be released in the upcoming months (as it probably takes 6 months to develop a DLC character), meaning they could be (first day) "ballot results".

Hiya. Usually just a lurker. I did upload this to imgur after finding the image on a 4chan thread here. http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/311810897/smash-3ds-datamined-3-empty-character-slots-found

It's not as if we know if Tama's leak is true yet.

Just realised, I never said who I think the characters or what the stages could be.

Let's go!

1. Wolf
2. Donkey Kong character (K. Rool or Dixie)
3. Third Party

1. New Star Fox Stage (Based on Zero)
2. 3DS exclusive past stage (Grate Bai plz)
3. 3rd Party's stage

As for who the 3rd party could be... I'm not sure. Maybe YCG have something going I'm not sure. Sonic & Mega Man were the only 3rd parties with wide support from the fanbase for their inclusion. Snake was a surprise to all, Pac-Man only became popular for speculation after Namco was on board and Ryu was another surprise. Point being, there's no big obvious one besides Snake and I don't think Konami is gonna stop it's projected business plan of "screw Kojima and money"

Hmm. That's a good guess, however I raise issue on one thing. I can accept he skimmed past the 3DS version as that's generally not cared about as much as the Wii U version. However it's the wording that's key.

Pirate Ship will be the FINAL returning stage.

Now of course, we have 2 additional stages to potentially look forward to. True, it might not conflict in the end, but if any other returning stage is announced then it dies. Still, at the very least it actually survived an information wave, that's better than 99.9% of leaks.
But we've seen that plans change - we just recently received a third slot. How can we be sure that another returning stage would de-confirm this?

Not saying I believe it... in fact, Bomberman with Snake's moves kills it for me, and I'm going to call Pirate Ship a coincidence.

99% sure that's fake but what baffles me is why Riku? That's like that one kid who swore you could unlock Shadow the Hedgehog in Melee if you S ranked all levels in his eponymous game but claims that Sora, err, Sonic wasn't in because...?

I don't think the Bomberman/Snake thing really kills the leak. I'll just quote what Nantendo said as I think he put it best:

"I think I can see what they mean by bomberman having a snake based moveset in the sense that it is not actual moves just copied but a focus on explosions as that was snakes niche, explosive weapons user".

First off, I'm not calling it fake. Any leak that survives an info wave and gains a little credibility is worth watching
But we've seen that plans change - we just recently received a third slot. How can we be sure that another returning stage would de-confirm this?

Not saying I believe it... in fact, Bomberman with Snake's moves kills it for me, and I'm going to call Pirate Ship a coincidence.
Plans change? Keep in mind this is from early September. This is after the last patch we had and before the current patch. That means that it's "changed plan" could of been accounted for. Especially seeing 3 placeholders, and Pirate Ship. One coincidence is easy to brush off, but Two and surviving an info wave stronger means it needs to be kept in mind. Do I believe it? No, but I also don't have reason to discredit it at this time. After all it was a year ago we had a character fight in a flying mech and the Duck Hunt Dog as characters and no one gave it the time of day for a while. Time shall certainly tell at any rate.

Heavy Weapons Specialist.

I can't see Bomberman using a rocket launcher.

Where's the original source of this leak? I tried flowing the conversation quotes but I got a dead end.

That is the one caveat that would sway me. Still, this is at its core a text leak, and as such it needs to do more than predict a stage to convince me.

Anyone remember Tower of Smash?

Hm... yeah, the short timeline is worth considering. I hadn't thought of that. I'm still cautious though, if for no other reason than it reads no differently than every other text leak we've seen.

I will grant that there's some meat to chew on here, but I'm only like 30% convinced it means anything right now. One or two screencaps would completely change my mind.

Well I didn't exactly get the impression from the leak that he said Bomberman would use all of Snake's moves. I think the Grenade would kinda work at the least at least in function.
Bomberman's bombs and Snake's grenades are very different. I can't see the bombs bouncing on the ground.

Plus body structure would be completely different--they would need to fully recreate the animations. Why would they just give him Snake's moveset?

The problem is Neo Zero Neo Zero said this leak conflicts with Tama's. Am I correct that this suggests only one or the other could be true?

Still, if I had to trade Shovel Knight for Wolf/K.Rool/Bomberman, I totally would. Either option would make me very happy.

He does actually use bouncy bombs:

Not saying this is true in any sense of the word. But I don't believe it can be discounted yet.

That 4chan leak claiming that Pirate Ship would be the last returning stage strikingly coincides with the latest update and the respective data mining results.

Could be a massive coincidence or we could have a legit leak once more.

If it's legit, I'll be happy since Wolf returns.

I think Bomberman honestly kills it before it launches. I really haven't heard much about him with the ballot at all. If it had said he was picked by Sakurai himself? Sure. But from a ballot of probably thousands of characters. Hundreds of which probably over shadowed him? Ehhhhh.

And here I thought we'd have another drought after the MM stage launched.

We've also got to remember that we get so many fake leaks that some are bound to get something right when they're all predicting from a finite number of possible options and dates.

But we've also got to remember that Smash suffers pretty badly from leaks. If this Wolf/K.Rool/Bomberman leak turns out to be legit then there wouldn't be a single part of Smash that hasn't had a leak aside from Mewtwo's original reveal.

In my opinion this leak does NOT conflict with Tama's. However, I'm also on #team strong fake for the Wolf, K. Rool and Bomberman leak.

As much as I want all three of those, I don't see them coming.

I think I even remember this leak being in the thread originally and being written off for numerous things. Such as the oddity of Bomberman and a perceived piggyback of Tama and his Shovel Knight leak/rumor.

Lucas's original reveal wasn't leaked.
