Tama Tama , I see that you're having a tough time with this, so I wanted to say something, I know that it can be a living nightmare sometimes, and people will say things, but please don't give up, you're the guy that found out why Sonic Boom sucked, you're the guy that found out that Nintendo intended to buy the rights to Harry Potter, you're the guy that found out about that pitch for that ''Kid Icarus'' game, I believe in you, now go, go and show them all that you can make some good lemonade, because when life gives you lemons, it's time to make some lemonade! :)

Man, can we go a few days without senseless arguments?

So, one of the supposed "leakers" apparently answered some more questions.

Yep. It's 100% confirmed
.
I mean, I would laugh at that other one too, honestly. It's such an underhanded way of trying to get info out of him by like claiming you understand but then slapping the "people don't believe you know anything" to try and get him to spill it.

Apparently not. But like Jerry Springer that's why people come to see the peanut gallery, so someone out there is in the glory of Schadenfreude.

I'm seeing people talk about Krystal. Why do people like her? I'm very unfamiliar with her so all I know is essentially 'would be different from the Star Fox Trio' though I'm sure there's more to it
Because I love Star Fox Adventures and she's a big part of that.

To be fair, I wasn't trying to get him to spill the beans, I'll be honest, I worded it wrong. I'll also be honest, I should've stayed out of that.

Ya'll need to learn how to talk about leaks without turning it into a win/lose scenario. You don't win if you correctly guess something is real, and you don't lose if you incorrectly guess something is fake.

Just let it ride.

So, what's the status on the twitter posts regarding Nintendo news? I know the whole story, but is there something else that was mentioned that has got people saying Inkling?

Also, Mother 3 was great to play through. Sad, yet great way to end the game. Now I just want more songs from Mother 3 in Smash (With the already perfect representation it has). Guess I'll just continue finishing up Earthbound Beginnings or find another game to play (Most likely Resident Evil since I have 3 games from the series now).

Funny how a simple text leak has pretty much gotten everyone stark raving mad. I've seen many come and go but this one is really pushing a lot of people's buttons. I hope we get something soon but remember that it's not the end of the world if we don't get more info by this month. I don't really have to say this to you guys tbh, since you are all pretty calm but this is more of a note for passerby's.

Also Ice Climbers are confirmed for Melee, I have no evidence but I have a twitter and I posted on Reddit at one point in my life so that makes me credible.

...Why? How many arguments has it been this week? And it really doesn't help that they become hateful and on-going. And for the bunch of us that just try to wait patiently and have some quiet speculation or fun discussion:

I guess this is my responsibility, heh. Anyways...

Same reason anyone likes any character. It doesn't necessarily need a justifiable reason and it's not always the same between fans.

For myself though, I've always been a Star Fox fan but I'm actually one of those people that really loved Adventures and Assault. Back before Brawl I wanted another Star Fox rep and my top choices were Wolf and Krystal, though I supported Krystal a bit more due to the moveset potential I saw. When Wolf got in, Krystal was obviously next in line in my eyes. I started supporting Krystal in this game well before Smash 4 came out just assuming Wolf would come back. He didn't, so then I felt I had to support both.

Specifically, I like Krystal because she represents Adventures and Assault and though her character isn't really well developed, she still has all the foundation pieces to being a really interesting character. She's likable enough for me anyways, though that's subjective and where a lot of people are split. In terms of her moveset and stuff, well, I'm sure you've heard the staff mentioned before. That easily realizable potentially unique moveset just makes her stand out a bit, especially relative to her Star Fox cohorts. Plus, when I think about the staff's abilities and Krystal's abilities to use it as a physical weapon, I just believe I'd immediately love that moveset.

There's lots of other characters I support too but a mixture of my long time interest, her potential uniqueness, her decent chance, and my care for her franchise and Smash bros too has lead me to be 100% behind her inclusion. If she was already in the game, I could see myself being in Isaac's corner for instance for similar reasons though I haven't played Golden Sun in years.

To each their own I guess, from what little I saw Krystal never captivated me but eh

Let me put it this way: Have you ever heard that one song call Ballroom Blitz? The one by the hair metal band Sweet? If not then I'd recommend it, it's a great hair metal song, but I digress...

Basically what I'm getting at we've off the deep end, and everything including ourselves have been thrown in the air all the while at each other's throats.

That's what makes horse races... or in this case, Smash ballots.

It's easy enough for me to understand why people don't "get" Krystal. I don't think it's obvious in terms of her character. I think people can at least appreciate the moveset potential. Thing is, plenty of characters have good moveset potential. It's just a matter of preference and interest in the character already.

Grow up.

Also, I heard this supposed character that those guys are going on about is the inklings from Splatoon. That's basically a rumour about a rumour, but nobody's denied it.

I dont know if there's any truth to their rumour, but I think it's a bit unfair to everyone that they're showing off about apparently knowing, while refusing to go on record about the specific character in case it's wrong. I believe in letting people know what you've heard, instead of just being vague and teasing; it doesn't matter if it's wrong.
I can agree with this statement I feel that they aren't naming anyone because it's either fake or they want attention. I find it a bit of both This way, if by the like 5% chance something happens in the next two weeks, they can say see we were right, while also being wrong as we truly don't know what they supposedly know if anything. This is a key reason why I have no faith in this right now, but let's see what happens. I think they are just piggybacking off of each other, but mainly off of Rogerbase who indicates he knows nothing about smash. If any of them are real, rogers is the only one that could potentially be legit imo. That's just my thoughts on the matter.

Oh right MN9. I saw the video not too long ago. And I have to say, especially with all the bull that's been happening with both the Kickstarter, Mighty No. 9 as a whole, and the whole Red Ash incident, it's not that bad. Granted there are definitely some areas that need improvement: Like I didn't really care some of the graphics (like the lack of lip-syncing or the effects being underwhelming at times), and Call could've emoted (also "Dr. White"? Really?!), but apart from that I liked it enough. It's what you'd expect from a Mega Man game.

And since it's coming out on every platform and its mother, I don't see a reason why not to give it a go.

Edit: Plus giving it the benefit of the doubt for a second, it's a demo after all. I'm sure it's not going to exactly represent the final product.

I have been saying this for months.

With you guys, someone has to win and someone has to lose.

This is mainly why I really don't care for in depth speculation over a video game like this anymore, after what was the Ridley speculation days. This behavior is honestly reminiscence of it, imo.

Not entirely true though. Roger can't say anything because he was a Nintendo employee and Nintendo does actually follow him and stuff, so they'd probably be able to figure out who he learned it from if it's legit and he told people. And the other 2 that are piggybacking off him are his friends and claiming he told them (at least Stealth claimed he learned it from Roger) which means if either of them say who it is, Roger will be implicated and Nintendo will hunt down whoever told Roger basically.
It's possible they are just pretending, but if they're not pretending, then it'd make sense that they aren't saying anything because they would get someone in serious trouble if they did.

Roger already made sure he didn't confirm if it was Smash-related or not by claiming it was just Nintendo-related (probably to avoid hinting at what team at Nintendo gave him intel) The other two are the ones who claimed he said it was Smash-related but they probably shouldn't have gone that far even.

I just want to say one thing. We definitely need to set some things straight.

The leak is currently up in the air as we speak. Anything can happen between now and then (in 2 weeks.)

Right now, is the perfect time to strike. It's just early enough so we can know the legitimacy ahead of time. We need someone to contact any of them. I'm honestly trying the best that I can with this. I don't even know what the heck is even going on anymore or if even one of them was talked to.

I just feel like we should verify ASAP so we can put this thing on its death bed once and for all.

That's all I ask.

I'm aware they are friends, which is why I feel they are piggybacking. Roger seems to be ignoring( to my knowledge anyway) and they act really trollish when asked questions. Roger is at least professional and isn't teasing beyond the first post. That's why I feel his friends are lying so they can join the fun essentially.

Well I'd recommend getting EB Beginnings out of the way first, but...
Which 3 games and which version of Resident Evil?

That voice acting though....

The game still looks pretty decent, the graphics are bleh, and the fact that the character's lips don't move is just dumb, but I'll probably get it at some point.

The button problem Johnny had seemed rather strange though.

I disagree. I don't think it should be pursued until some kind of validity is seen. For instance, if Nintendo announced a Nintendo Direct, it would add a (very very small) bit of credibility, and I might be slightly more interested. IF they really did have some info but didn't want to share it, I really don't think people bugging them would make them change their minds. And if they don't actually have any info, they're just going to continue the false hype train for fun.

For now, I think the smartest thing to do is say "I hope they're right, and a character gets revealed soon!" and leave it at that :)
