The English language died in that post. "There".

It makes me cringe.

It's interesting that everyone seems to be forgetting about this...

when were they officially revealed?
On a Sunday.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Why does it have the ballot picture but nothing about it?

It's lower down in a different post (assuming it's the same guy.)

Other than the eshop stuff it isn't the most absurd thing i've ever heard (strange we were just talking about Smash 64)
calling fake because text leak with way too much info for one person etc etc

That wasn't a Direct leak, that was...um, a direct leak of datamined info from an update.
Not the same thing.

ZeRo and Ally are going at it right now.

 

[Zekrom101]

This is just... every generic fake leak ever.

In other news: http://nintendoeverything.com/hyrule-warriors-legends-news-teased-for-next-week/

I believe I read a 4chan leak that was someone posted like 2 weeks ago in here that had the exact same content.
It said that Splatoon would get the Octolings as playable characters, the free SMM DLC and why I know this is the same because of the Amiibo part

The Direct was not leaked though is what he is getting at. That was a slip up from Nintendo uploading the update too early, completely different.

No one has ever successfully leaked a Direct itself.

Hey /v/, NoC employee here who talks to a couple NoA employees on skype quite frequiently, OP is obviously lying but here's some actual info: There's gonna be a Halloween-themed Nintendo Direct on the 14th showing off some new stuff, mainly a MASSIVE Splatoon Halloween update and some Smash Ballot stuff. It apparently starts off with Bill Trinen dressed as the Villager from Animal Crossing, he introduces Series 2 of the AC Amiibo cards (out in December for Japan, January for NA) and some AC Happy Home Designer DLC, he then talks some more about Fatal Frame V (physical release in December), Zelda Tri Force Heroes, Chibi Robo Zip Lash, Fire Emblem Fates (release date is Feb. 13th BTW), basically stuff you guys already know. It then switches over to Reggie (dressed as Mario) who introduces all of the Splatoon stuff. There's going to be a Splatfest on the 31st (theme is Trick Vs. Treat) along with an update that adds a crapload of weapons and about 2 or 3 maps (one might be held back until next month). The Octoling stuff you guys have heard about will also come out at the same time, and they'll also announce Callie & Marie and Octoling amiibos (Callie & Marie are a double pack and they'll cost about $25, and the Octoling is exclusive to Walmart), those will come out in January alongside the AC Cards. Reggie then talks about Yoshi's Woolly World, Star Fox Zero (out on March 26th), Xenoblade, and SMTxFE for a bit, and then shows off new Pikmin-themed MK8 DLC (Olimar and Alph are playable characters now, and the SS Dolphin is a new vehicle).

Sakurai shows up at the end of the Direct to show off the Lucas, Roy, and Ryu amiibos (launch alongside FE:Fates on Feb.13th, Roy will be playable in Fates just like the other FE amiibos) and to talk a little bit about the Smash Ballot. Sakurai explains that they were so overwhelmed by votes so don't be surprised if your choice didn't make it in. He shows off a trailer for Wolf (returing character trailers are easy to make since they don't need to make an animation for it, this is why the K. Rool and Shovel Knight trailers won't be shown until next month in a dedicated Smash direct), who will launch alongside the Mii Fighter and Falco amiibos on Nov. 20th (K. Rool and SK will also come out on the same day, but will be revealed in a direct either on the 19th or on the 20th in the morning). Sakurai thanks the viewers for their patience for more Smash content, and the Direct ends there.

Has anyone thought to check the web coding of the movies section on the site? I doubt anything will come from it, but it is still odd that the American sites section just up and died.

I don't buy it by virtue of being a Direct leak but it's certainly interesting.
Can't see any more MK8 DLC happening, sadly.

Aaaaand Vinnie just 3-0'd Seagull Joe.

Mmm, I dug through the HTML and doesn't look like there's anything interesting.
But I'm also not a source code expert at ALL so I dunno.
Does the movie section even have the trailers for Ryu Roy and Lucas?

It's likely just an error, hardly the first time it's happened.

 

[Godzillathewonderdog]

Smash Bros will get a ton of new Mii costumes to coincide with Halloween. The costumes will be of the most requested characters, and that's what makes them scary.

 

[Coricus]

To be honest, I am reeeeeeaaaaaally skeptical about indie characters being playable. Mii Fighter costumes might be possible, but I just don't see indie characters having the non-bandwagon exposure to be playable outright.

I could totally be proven wrong, mind you, but I'm taking any leaks with Shantae/Shovel Knight in them with a fist-sized crystal of salt.

Smash 4 has the best balance, true, but still, every patch certain characters despite being universally thought as terrible, are never touched. Or barely touched.

Disregarding obscure indie character, it seemed kinda believable until he mentioned that K. Rool and Shovel Knight would need animations. Ryu didn't get one.

 

[Frostwraith]

Selective bias.

Though to be fair, Melee was released in a time without proper online functionality, so no patches there.

Melee had a short development cycle and essentially rushed.

If Sakurai had been given more time back then, things would have been quite different.

Perhaps, some characters wouldn't have made it at all such as Roy and Dr. Mario, two characters that have gained fans and made their return in Smash 4. Ganondorf would've been very different and maybe Wario if he was given a moveset during Melee's time.

Still impressive how the game managed to have the amount of content it has, even though Sakurai did admit he worked extremely hard on it, skipping holidays and reducing sleep time.

I don't know, I don't like any of them. Link and Zelda look fine but their faces...heeughh

Well, even I could say something about Ganondorf's face, to be absolutely honest. Some of his expressions are a bit silly and he lacks evil smirks.

Link and Zelda look fine. Not sure what's your problem with them.

Guess this is all subjective anyway, so there's really no point in debating.

Brawl and Smash 4 aren't balanced very well either.
Smash 4 has the best balance, true, but still, every patch certain characters despite being universally thought as terrible, are never touched. Or barely touched.

Well, Zelda has been getting some buffs in the latest few patches. Not terribly good buffs, but some of her problems have been fixed since the game's release, such as the multi-hitting Smash attacks.
