I wonder if Nintendo is purposely leaking false information to try and counter all the real leaks that came out last year

Down on the corner, out in the street.
Friendly reminder not to ever trust these people ever again:

They were wrong about everything they "leaked."

I hope you learned your lesson.
When it comes to software, I have no faith in these rumours or leaks they post.


A different story when it comes to hardware since Laura at least got stuff right, but it's not that much better either.

They were wrong about everything, especially Laura
who leaked things that patents would later confirm
who leaked the PS4 Slim
who leaked Guardians of the Galaxy's Telltale game
who leaked the date of the Switch's announcement
who leaked the fact it wouldn't be called 'Wii'
who mentioned a Rabbids Mario game before Nintendo coincidentally show a Mario themed Rabbid plushie in a video
She got things wrong, yes, but she didn't get everything wrong. I know you're part of a group who hates game journalist, especially LGBT friendly ones as they are 'sjws' but come on

It got C and D'd immediately because the creator was dumb and created a go fund me for it.
From what I understand it didn't get C and D'd. but it did have its Pateron page removed.

The project is still going, I just assume Alvin Earthworm is having some life troubles.

Got the 4 Island Guardians! Tapu Bolo gave me the most trouble since I would keep either juusssst killing it, or killing it staright away. Its heal thing didnt help once I got it right but after its gimick wore off, I caught it no problem. Should have waited till that grass ting stopped.
Route 8 has quick balls

Thrifty Mart actually has timer balls, and they are half off there
Thanksss!!! Gonna stock up!

Regardless of whether or not anyone believes the leakers, several of the things they either leaked or "leaked" were grounded in things Nintendo stated or was suspicious about themselves.

Retro making a new project and it not being Metroid or DK? Interview from 2014.

Smash Bros having a Switch version? The Japanese Ballot said it could be used for future reference for something. . .which would also mean new characters.

A third version of Pokemon Sun and Moon on the Switch? There's some data in Sun and Moon's coding that implies a third version and according to an interview Pokemon Company is apparently on the fence whether they want to put their next game on the 3DS or the Switch, with another interview confirming that mainline Pokemon will be on the system eventually.

The main thing that's been weird is that Animal Crossing has also been incredibly suspicious with the mobile app's interactivity and the Animal Crossing Facebook liking the Switch Facebook, but leakers have said not a peep on that.

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater, that's all I'm saying. Common sense dictates that half the things they said are true with or without them, and if your preference is to think they were lying on purpose then it's highly possible they could simply have seen the same things I did and worked from that. . .or not, if they truly had no idea whether or not Smash Switch would have more characters. It most likely will.

And Laura has proven to be a 100% attention hound (Skyrim at launch my butt), so we're back to square one.

I'm going to be incredibly upset when this doesn't end up happening.
At first I thought, sure, that'd be cool.

But then you(or whoever) made his arms the wireframe Mac version, and that's just sick.

I don't know why people are so upset about these rumors not coming to fruition. They're rumors for a reason, if it turns out to be false, move on, if it turns out to be true, cool.

I don't get why people have to go out of their way to make "DON'T EVER TRUST THESE PEOPLE DDDDDX" charts

If the baby isnt in your belly, it doesnt exsist is what I think

As in, If there is no proof of a "rumor" being real, Im not believing it
So what happens after a baby is born??

I'm not even saying the rumors are necessarily real, I'm saying that after reading several interviews from Nintendo themselves it's possible that the rumors were fibs but the games still exist ANYWAY.

I'm more just saying for people not to suddenly go "These people were wrong, so there's no way any of these games can exist!" It's a bad idea to expect them to the point of being upset when you don't get them, but I have completely unrelated reasons from Nintendo staff themselves to think a lot of things are in the works and I can already see myself getting shot down constantly because "But the fake leakers said it so it must be fake!"

Yeah, reading through the twitter responses was disgusting. Like I really don't think someone's rumors not being true is really the worse thing in the world.
Anyways, from my understanding, they also did get some things right. So really it's just a matter of pick and choose what you want to believe, but don't ****ing wish them to die because something you wanted didn't come true. They're just ****ing rumors.

Remember when people said "Don't believe the internet"? I don't think there's a better option anymore. Papers and radio are trying to sell you things and are dead, TV is similar but also has appearances to keep up. I don't think there's a different news source, so it's a gamble when you believe anything anyway. I can't really blame them for asking about rumors about these typically closed doors companies.
It's dumb but people are naturally flawed anyway~~~

Edit: The backlash, however, is quite dumb. Rumors are a risk and people shouldn't be extremely mad at a person for making them. However, attention seeking and wrong the leaker may be.

I guess I should of said If you say the baby is in your belly and dont show proof, I wont believe it

But if the baby is born Ill have to believe it exsist because its right infront of me lol

Once I see some stright up proof stars and switch smash may or do exsist, Ill start believing.
I dont even believe rumors so I cant say Im mad they got things wrong. I just dont like the attitudes of some leakers, that my issue, not they got things wrong

I agree. I mean when you're reporting on things like rumors and leaks, can you really be expected to be 100 percent right all the time? Not to mention that for some people, it doesn't matter how many things these people have gotten right but if they slip up once their whole reputation is ruined. It's pretty unfair, I guess perhaps I don't understand as much being someone that doesn't care much for leaks, rumors or speculation.

It upsets me to see people go out of their way to say horrible things and send threats over something like reporting a false leak. These are people and I don't think anyone should be attacked or harassed over things like this.

That baby is clearly just a hyper realistic drawing

The main problem is this: It's black and white. Either you get everything right, or get everything wrong. Especially in this case as Laura not only had previously leaked things in the past, but has said "That, I got wrong, GG"

This is why you should always do some farther research with things. There's nothing wrong with believing something you find on the internet provided you can back up that belief. A lot of my knowledge on things comes from the internet, but I try to make sure that whatever I believe I can back up. Otherwise, why believe it?

If I find something outlandish, I'm not going to immediately believe it unless I find farther evidence to support it. When it comes to rumors, it's just a gamble, why get mad when it turns out to not be true?

I think it's a combination of getting all of their rumors on Switch wrong with calling out true leaks as if they were fake.

The Switch leakers came off as arrogant, and everyone likes seeing arrogant people fall

Now we're getting existential. You'd think things would calm down after a big reveal.

The best/worst part is that she doesn't seem to be a playable character but a weapon, meaning you can't even customize her to have different clothes
Speaking of clothes, I hope that Xenoblade 2 has a feature in which you can choose to keep the same look if you change equipment, the stronger armour was usually ugly imo, especially in X
The more I think of it, I'm not too fond with this idea. But I hope we can understand more about the story and then see if it makes sense.

People got death threats for reporting that "No Man's Sky" was delayed

******** are going to ***.
That's bad too, and then the game gets released and those same nerds turn around and send the dev death threats. Like what is this? What's with nerds and death threats?
