The bosses would have to be reworked to be playable
But then you wonder why they would do this instead of full playable characters

Because they can't be. They would be too big to feasibly be a regular playable character. This is a compromise or the people who want to play as Ridley/Metal Face/etc

Or at least that is the basic thought process as silly as it it. . .

Let's pretend this ends up true while acknowledging this most likely isn't.

You could use similar reasoning to the clones prior to DLC; the team had extra development time so they were squeezed in. I imagine the bosses wouldn't need much reworking. I mean, you could access Master Hand in Melee through a glitch, surely they found a better way to implement it. The image of MH on the Practice area bugs me, since I think bosses should be restricted to their home stages, but their low variety of attacks means they wouldn't need much work.

I got salty with your custom Yoshi's Story and the stage spike on Falco

I'm guessing it can work in a similar way to how Galactus was playable in MvC3.

...of course that mode was rubbish though.

Why the leak is fake ;
The scores do not make sense. With Robin, he got lik 1, 750, 000 GSP
The total with all characters is 1, 790, 000 GSP. But looking at the normal score, he at least played with about 10 characters. Now not sure if GSP works like that but it is strange.

Not that it isn't simply sufficient to dismiss a good 99% of leaks outright, but fonts, guys. The font used in those Master/Crazy Hand splashes may be used in the menus in the game, but I haven't seen it used for character splash screens like that anywhere, in-game or otherwise.

I don't think this is real. Do you know how much time they'd have to put in to make this work?

Yeah that's another thing, they looked really similar to the edits gameonion was doing which is why I tagged him earlier (not accusing of course)

What's the point of making bosses semi-playable?

I think I'm just proud that I was finally able to use Hydro Pump properly
I'll see if I can play later

Well to be fair, it could be possible when no other player has done the mode.

The GSP rating is calculated separately for each character's score and for total score; that's not really abnormal. Total GSP != sum of individual GSP, at the very least.

Perhaps adding an inverse Boss mode to the game. It was stated by Sakurai himself that new modes were coming, and an inverse boss mode would be an interesting concept for a fighting game like Smash, since few fighting games allow you to do that with their large bosses, if any. MVC3 allowed it with Galactus, and Marvel Vs Capcom 1 allowed you to use Onslaught in the console versions, so there's that, but those were traditional fighting games as opposed to the party-esque fighter Smash is.

Though I can imagine it being hilariously one-sided for some bosses.

In retrospect, the splash art for the Hands looks more like Omni work than anything else.

Looking at the one two posts above gives me Banjo Kazooie vibes.

The leak is just so... fake. Meh.

I don't think I even have the energy to go into detail on why I think it's fake.

*hours discussing why it could or couldn't be real*

"it's fake, let's move on"

Even if it's fake, it's worth discussing

I don't remember Sakurai ever specifically stating that we'd get new modes. I think that he might have said it was a possibility, but I don't think he ever outright confirmed that they were in the works.

There's nothing else to talk about really.

It's either this or making up conspiracy theories on why there's an update on Monday or beating the Shovel Knight discussion to death.

Which is where the ESRB leak came from. 4chan is not something ti just "push off to the side" like that. I still doubt it's legit, but don't use that "logic" anymore, really.
But we also got the Rayman and SMS X Splatoon "leaks" that turned out to be fake. Honestly I don't know what to believe from that site anymore.

Just take it with a grain of salt like always lol

No place is going to have a 100% success rate with leaks except maybe Siliconera

If a direct was happening tomorrow, would have have been announced by now? I remember some being announced a day before a direct, but not the time. Or am I remembering wrong?
