how they revealed his amiibo

thats not deconfirmation at all

 

[powerprotoman]

GUYS WATCH THE TRAILER HE HAS THE SMASH STAND!

 

[Firus]

how they revealed his amiibo

thats not deconfirmation at all

I think it's because it has the Shovel Knight logo on the box, not the Smash one.

Which still isn't necessarily a 100% deconfirmation, but.

 

[SuperSegaSonicSS]

GUYS WATCH THE TRAILER HE HAS THE SMASH STAND!

Proof?

 

[GamerGuy09]

GUYS WATCH THE TRAILER HE HAS THE SMASH STAND!

Yo are you sure? Is that the Smash symbol?!?!?!

 

[Z25]

This is really cheesing but funny at the same time, looks good though.

 

[cmbsfm]

So it's just the amiibo? Or is there more?

 

[Khoru]

no, it's not the smash logo

 

[KenboCalrissian]

Watch this video very, very closely... it looks like he's on a Smash base!!

Baah, that's not a Smash base... Not looking good for him.

 

[powerprotoman]

okay false alarm he has a shovel knight themed stand

 

[DangerDamage]

[CommanderZaktan]

And that's it.

 

[SuperSegaSonicSS]

Done guys.

 

[Captain Fun]

And they make every attempt to not show the stand at all...
suspicious...
nevermind

 

[ThePenguinGamer0]

Is it over?

Is Shovel Knight in Smash?

 

[Z25]

Hm, I have the sneaking suspicion that SK could still show up in the Nintendo part of the stream....

 

[IceBreakerXY]

and sk deconfirmed buh bye boys

dont see how this is a deconfirmation.Again tama source said in 1-2 months Ash's said tonight.

 

[PushDustIn]

@ Swamp Sensei

You mentioned in the K. Rool thread that we know there will be several Ballot characters. I took a look on Source Gaming and @ PushDustIn 's article and I didn't really see anything there that we didn't already know besides the claims of reliable sources and an adamant viewpoint that Shovel Knight is indeed going to be a character and not just a costume or something.

Where is it stated that these guys know there are multiple characters? A lot of the dread in the K. Rool thread is coming from this Tamaki guy (who no one in this thread are really pleased with right now, or Snake fans for that matter) is that if this is proven true, K. Rool might not be happening. We just hope this bit is pure speculation, regardless of Shovel Knight's inclusion.

Let me see if I can provide a better answer to this. Please wait.

 

[Icedragonadam]

Hm, I have the sneaking suspicion that SK could still show up in the Nintendo part of the stream....

When's that?

 

[Scamper52596]

I can't believe they got the Game Grumps to star in the trailer.
