There's a difference between knowing something's coming and actually seeing it.
At the same time and I love Spazzy and Guy. They're awesome peeps. Don't get me wrong, not knocking them or their wishes.

It's very much a ''You know you're risking seeing it in a thread dedicated to leaks." factor to consider anyways.

I'm definitely waiting to watch footage of Ryu/Roy till tomorrow

The big surprise is that A: The leak happened today
and B: That we're apparently getting Lucas, Ryu, and Roy on the same day

Still, I'm severely disappointed that there'll be a lack of cars to beat up. Now how will I get the high score?

Waiiiiit. Hold on.

We got a Ken trophy but not a palette swap. Also a random Inkling Girl trophy.


... do we know these aren't Assist Trophies?

For those who are bummed that they saw the leak... sorry. But most of us are super hyped to finally have something after months, so please don't push your negativity on us.
???

no one is pushing negativity on you. are people not allowed to express their disappointment that the presentation got spoiled big time?

I feel like Ken would have voice clips if he were an Assist. He doesn't.

You guys know how I am in my bitter black *****-y heart about veterans that were cut and special cases and what not.

Seeing Roy again changed that.

Bring them back.

Bring them all back.

So if Roy/Ryu are coming this quickly, is it a safer bet that we're getting more characters than initially expected?

I find it very hard to believe that this'll be the last Smash character update for a year.

I would agree with you if we were talking about someone like Duck Hunt, but we're not. We knew what Roy and Ryu were going to look like. You can find 3D models of them online. It's really not that big of a surprise.

But regardless it's great to see I'm not alone. :')

I'd say so, yeah. Especially when you consider the Ballot, we could be getting a lot.

I love how people try to tell me on other boards that Nintendo does know how to manage patches/online networks. That they know how to perform basic online functions in the 21st century.

Then this happens.

Please, this could've happened to anyone. This game has massive amounts of hype following it so of course people are watching its every move.

Sorry for the outburst. I'm removing this thread from my watchlist for the time being.

It happened to Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Literally every single new character was leaked day 1 because Capcom ****ed up.

It's not just Nintendo this happens too.

I would disagree with you. And yes, they are allowed to, but I would not post that on this thread, where we're supposed to be talking about new leaks, instead of saying someone is bummed because they learned about new leaks. But it's cool, I was just excited to come to Smashboards to see the hype after I saw it on facebook, and the first message I saw was someone complaining about it. That's all.

No it wouldn't have happened to anyone. (Besides Marvel cuz DLC on disc)

This doesn't happen to other companies because they know what people will do. They will datamine. They make sure certain data isn't in updates. It's a rather specific example, but this is just one of many things Nintendo still can't understand when it comes to an online framework.

Given his history on spoilers, Sakurai must be throwing quit a hissy fit right now.

I have to wonder if they do it on purpose. Look at all the hype it has generated, it's trending on twitter. Leaks excite people more than official announcements do.

By the way guys, I just totally noticed that all 3 of Roy's different looks are in his costume in this game. He has his Awakening boots/hair/gauntlets etc, his Melee purple scarf etc, his FE cape etc.

No one else from Street Fighter is either though. Ryu and( to a slightly lesser degree) Ken are Street Fighter. They're the only two who were playable in the very first one.

I see you that...

But also raise Chun Li is far more iconic than Ken in terms of her being the first major female fighting game character, etc.

She's as much Street Fighter as Ryu.
