Pretty in pink or true in blue, Krystal for Sm4sh!

Anyways... Thought I'd point out a possible Nintendo direct coming up

https://www.youtube.com/embed/gdbgCFZRab8

Found by googling nintendo direct and changing the search settings time to past 24 hours.

Wait how do you know this is a Nintendo Video and that it's a Direct? I can't get anything from it other than it's private.

EDIT: Wait now I see it on Google and it is indeed named Nintendo Direct. Can't see if it's indeed in Nintendo's official channel though. Huh, wonder when it actually airs if this is the real deal.

 

[Tipps4728]

@ Tipps4728 the video is private, so I can't view it. What was said in the video?

I believe it's Nintendo's link so far but to soon to tell but they usually hold directs on Thursday and inform in 24 hours so we'll see I guess

Yeah that's why I explained how I got it, without that it's kinda nothing

 

[Thereallucario]

Quick thing on the future @ DarkKry4 zero does not mean that "I don't think this character will make it into smash bros"
zero means "THIS CHARACTER WILL NEVER MAKE IT INTO SMASH BROS" which is hard by all counts for almost all characters. In the end, a 10% means what you want it to, so next time do that.

 

[DarkKry4]

All I'm saying is 0% is a strong number to put on a character that hasn't been confirmed or deconfirmed in anyway yet that's why it's unfair. All I ask is that you should at least acknowledge she could make it even if you think it's a long shot. We're dealing with Sakurai after all. If it means anything I would have given Rosalina a decent chance rating before she was actually confirmed.

Would have never guessed the person in your picture was Amanda Bynes btw...

she could make it in the next game. But this one, i really don't think so.

yes i know, she looks super kawaii

Why would you make your avatar a pic of Amanda that was taken when she was mentally unstable? she had to stay in a mental hospital for like 6 months....

i just liked the look. It was hood chic. but i am glad she's back to her normal self lately.

 

[Bunny8093]

Well alright, but there is always DLC which has a strong chance of happening. That is if she already isn't in the base game. That's a plus. With that said I'll drop it.

 

[AnoA]

First time posting here. I hope Krystal gets in the game.

I want to believe that Sakurai has and will add a new Star Fox char per game. ( At least up to this one)

Also he hasn't revealed much about Star Fox. Seems kind of suspicious.

She's a female and considering the post in which Sakurai mentions the inclusion of so many females, that may give her a chance.

So yeah, just pointing some stuff up. :D

 

[Tipps4728]

Okay this is totally speculation and don't get excited when I say this but for a little over a week Sakurai has posted the pic of day kinda early, except on the day Meta Knight was shown, that one was rather kinda late. Today's PotD is kinda late so far but not as much as Meta Knight's was so there might be something coming. This is just something I've noticed recently though and could be proven wrong within the next few minutes. Just thought I'd share.

EDIT: well there goes that idea. PotD is Smash run stuff again.

 

[TheRandomCities4]

Ohhhh...

I've been struck by a gut-wrenching plague of devastation...

I'll leave you guys to enjoy your final speculation, hopefully in peace... I don't want to ruin your experience with my new-found knowledge...

I will return after the destruction of Smashboards to leave my epitaph on the grave of this thread. It will be a date that lives in infamy for many of the western smashers---not just us Krystal supporters. We will mourn together when the time comes. I have a few choice words to share that will forever etch the remains...

Please enlighten us with the bad news. I believe everyone here is mature enough to listen to what you have to say.

Anyway I have to laugh at the latest SSB4 leak because its from 4Chan enough said.

I'd like to know what you found out, you're the most knowledgeable person in this thread (no offense to anyone here) and I've lurked here for quite some time because of you. Yeah i support krystal also.

Is it really because of this new leak? or is it something else...

Whats with the sudden drop? This is most certainly not like you (And leaving cryptic messages tbh isn't that clear, just spit it out).

I'm used to bad news all the time.

This isn't the latest "leak", is it? That thing's getting debunked left and right.

...And either way, I'd rather know the truth.

 

[Shorts]

Looks like the game was leaked + DLC characters.

GG guys, maybe Smash 5.

Please Cities, tell us what's grieving you. I can only speak for myself, but I promise I won't overreact and be in complete denial. We've always been here to acknowledge the good and the ugly. Your knowledge would be welcomed, even if it flies against the face of our collective expectations.

 

[Shorts]

Look at the front page. every confirmed character plus characters from brawl + Chorus Kids, Bowser Junior, Dark Pit, Doctor Mario, Shulk, and DHD

 

[Delzethin]

The main collection of so called leaks is here. A whole lot of arguments against its veracity are here.

Add in the thought that it seems really unlikely that 1/3 of the 3DS' stages would be returning ones.

I've heard many things going for and against this leak, but nothing has really stood out to me except for the quantity of photos given. Has this been confirmed yet? I've just seen too much going against it to believe yet

Yeah I came across this earlier but it didn't really convince me all the way. A little bit too many things messed up for me right now

 

[Shorts]

The photos all but confirm it. Really.

 

[Delzethin]

Then why do those "photos" have so many errors and things left to question? I'm not convinced...and we shouldn't jump to conclusions yet.

Didn't we learn that from the Gematsu leak?

 

[Shorts]

Ive seen the "errors" theyre all less convincing than the extremely convincing photos.

Sal was right. This leak is real. Good day to those who don't believe it is.

 

[ImOnlyHereToTalkStarFox]

Not believing till I see it from sakurai.

 

[Bunny8093]

I don't know if I should give in and say this is real yet or not. It's sure looks convincing though. I was going to write it off but now... I dunno. If this is real and what we see is indeed the final roster then it sucks to be a Krystal fan. I guess there's always DLC surely the DLC listed by the leak won't be all of it. And also... If this is real so much for the trophy theory.

That said if this is the Final Roster then I won't be too sad, I've got a lot of characters to try, and since Shulk's here I at least got one more character to play with that I like. All we can do now guys is hope for a veteran reveal and/or newcomer reveal and pray if it is someone on this roster, their artwork looks different. If it's different from the leak in my eyes it's dead if identical... it's real.

 

[Weavel]

The character screen select screens boxes sizes are unequel in size with some being smaller then the others, it also looks like mr game an watch's hand is clipping into Wario's avatar.

I don't believe it is real.

 

[IanTheGamer]

I think it's fake, so many errors, and it's from 4chan, which isn't a trustworthy website

After closer inspection, it doesn't look like is bleeding into .

But I think we should refrain from talking about the leak until Sakurai either debunks it or adds fuel to the fire. I may not expect her to join in right away but I'm not the type of person that gives up easily until SSB4 is released or Sakurai flat out says "Krystal won't be playable"

Call me in denial all you want, but I'm not falling for old tricks.

 

[MagnesD3]

All hope is lost.

There hasnt been a huge hole as of yet and renders arent easy to come out of thin air, especially several of them...

There is multiple flaws about the character select screen and I've seen better fakes then this from other games. It ain't real bro! I feel no fear or disappointment at all as of yet.

 

[ghastmine]

Guys lets not talk about this leak...but no important potd....

 

[TheDarkKnightNoivern]

The lack of ice climbers is what screams fake for me, It's fair enough if they couldn't do it but saving them for DLC is just sao dumb.
And even if it is real has it been confirmed that this is the whole thing? It looks like there's more room for about 5 more slots

Also mario having 7 reps while Zelda and Pokemon have 5 is just something that is never gonna happen

You haven't given any evidence on it's fakeness, just your opinions. We all thought dropping Mewtwo was stupid but it happened.

I just think ice climbers being dlc is a very strange thing that I couldn't really see happening. Sakurai isn't one for DLC in the first place but having people pay more money to get veterans that were in the last game is just something not sakurai-like in the slightest, I dunno this still feels extremely shady and I'm still on the fence about it, I think I'm just gonna stay neutral until the next character reveal/release

 

[Tipps4728]

Just though I'd say what seems wrong/weird with these pictures. First the stage select screen. In the past two games old stages had never been mixed up with new stages. Now this could just be something new they are doing for some odd reason I guess.
Now the character select screen. First thing is what @ TheRandomCities4 Pointed out, how the top edge slightly mirrors the characters below. 2nd is Yoshi has been in a different game section than Mario has in than past two games, in this picture he is being bundled into Mario's group with Rosalina in the other side. They could have made a new game section with Rosalina and Bowser jr. For Mario galaxy but I find this a little unlikely and I just checked and Bower Jr. Has Mario's game symbol with him. Then there is the Wario deal. His eye appears to be missing a pupil but could be behind his nose and Mr. Game and Watch's hand at first appears to be crossing into his box. But closer just looks like Wario's jacket blends into his hand in a way. If you look at Ganandorf's slot it looks like there is a big black pixel on it and it's hard to make out his looks. Then on the right side of the screen you'd notice Mario's box seems cut off a little bit but Fox's isn't. Also seems weird that the clones would be grouped together and that would mean Sakurai is really calling these characters clones when he said there won't be any if I remember right and if they're not clones why aren't they grouped with their games. Finally the lines that seperate CPU from the level are the same on the first two computers but the third one's is slightly bigger for some reason.
Next the screen with options to choose a character or mii. At first glance nothing seems wrong but look at the line it looks incomplete and also has some pixels from the line above it crossing into it. Furthermore, the settings button (the wrench) is not lined up with either of these lines and is just in between them both. The last little thing I saw is the s on fighters kinda touches the boundary of the mii fighters button.
Those are the things I noticed just for those three pictures. I'm not convinced on this leak quiet yet, just seems like too many small things. The only reason it would be like this is if they were taken early in development in my opinion. And if it was early in development then there could be added or dropped characters (dropped like Tetra and them were for brawl). Anyways just thought I'd share what I see

 

[Aurora Sparkle]

Man.. I hope the leak isn't real for Krystal's sake- but one thing that stands out to me that I don't think I've seen anyone mention yet-
aside from the fact that the Character Selection tiles have no names in them like they did in shown playable builds like this:

Would they really squish THAT many character tiles onto one screen like that in the final build? Considering the people who may still only have an OG 3DS (I do, the screens are tiny as hell compared to the XL) - the Roster would look terrible and the character tiles would be practically pin pricks and very difficult to view because of the terrible tiny screen.
I find it hard to think they would design it that way, and was always personally thinking it would be done in such a way that the full roster on the 3DS screen would be multi-page scrolled to access other characters.

In the end who really knows though.

 

[TheRandomCities4]

If... if you guys insist.

Ken, the King of Smash, has known about most of the roster for quite a while. He's been keeping it under wraps for good reason, I suppose. I didn't make a huge note about it until now.

This much, I didn't worry about. Until...

I inferenced that he has had connections---there's no way someone could figure all that out on their own.

Well, there's this other spot of information that has been existing online for a while. Unfortunately, those who are exposed to it aren't allowed to specifically detail it to others, as per the request of the people who are not trying to create a massive scene. I can't even say where the information is fostered, exactly. Heed my words, what I say is the truth---at least as I understand it. This was the part that was new to me, and I then added 2 and 2 together---well, you get the picture.

Admittedly, there's the slim chance that this collective string of knowledge isn't the whole piece. There could be more... which would be good for us. But it's very unlikely.

There's a chance that the current leak (which wasn't the source of my sudden despair) has been forged to reflect the current string of knowledge, rather than being the entirety.

This slim possibility relies on the idea that not all playtesters have reported on their findings, and that maybe, just maybe, there are more playtesters who have different builds of the game that we are unaware of. And maybe, from these other playtesters, there are more characters in the game.

That is all I can say. I'm sorry if I sound vague in some areas. I keep my promises close.

That said, I don't think I will return unless... something happens. Or, the game is released, and all is said and done.

This has been a great ride, guys. I enjoyed my experience speculating with all of you.
