Hey guys, I'm from the Gamefaqs forum. This guy named SuperStarship made a topic claiming he knew the full roster, along with a link to his blog. It was deleted almost immediately, and I doubt many people have seen it. Here's what his blog post said:




"Hey guys, I have the information that you guys have all been waiting for.

There have been a lot of "leaks" lately, and I can assure you that none of the leaked rosters have been 100% correct so far. Some of them have been surprisingly close. But I want to set things straight, and end the flow of increasingly ridiculous fake rosters. I happen to know every playable character in the game, what mode they're unlocked in, and the complete starting roster. How you ask?

I work in international business, which obviously requires me to travel frequently. I've visited Japan quite a bit, and on my last trip a few weeks ago I met with the floor manager of a factory in Osaka. After getting the business talk out of the way, we began talking about future items coming through his factory, and he excitedly told me that they would be printed Brawl. I told him how big of a SSBM nerd I was, and next thing I knew we were back at his flat, hooking up his Wii. We played Melee for almost 2 hours (he kicked my ***, although I did beat him once). This guy was really cool, and I promised him a rematch next time I was in Osaka. We exchanged phone numbers, and parted ways.We called a each other a few times to discuss new Dojo updates, fake leaks, and everything Smash.

He called yesterday and told me that printing of the game was well under way, and that he had a surprise for me. He knew the roster. He started telling me everything he knew, and I grabbed a pen and paper and jotted it all down. Now I shall share it with you.

First off, the characters on the Dojo aren't the starting roster. The starting roster is actually quite smaller, but that doesn't stay that way after playing the SSE. SSE unlocks a majority of the characters on the Dojo, Save for Snake and Sonic. The rest of the hidden characters are unlocked by playing Classic Mode, Multi-Man Melee, Vs. Matches. Ok, enough talking. Here is the starting roster:

[SPOILERS BEGIN]

STARTING ROSTER:

-Mario
-Link
-Kirby
-Pikachu
-Fox
-Samus/Zamus
-Donkey Kong
-Yoshi
-Ice Climbers
-Captain Falcon


UNLOCKED THROUGH SSE:

-Zelda
-Peach
-Bowser
-Pit
-Wario
-Ike
-Pokemon Trainer
-Diddy Kong
-Meta Knight
-Lucas
-King Dedede
-Pikmin and Olimar
-Krystal
-Claus
-Lucario
-Ganondorf
-Isaac
-Midna
-Ridley



UNLOCKED IN OTHER MODES:

-Luigi
-Mr. Game & Watch
-Jigglypuff
-Mewtwo
-Marth
-Sonic
-Snake
-Megaman
-W.W. Link
-Geno
-Lip



Characters Cut:

-Falco
-Pichu
-Dr. Mario

[END SPOILERS]

I'm ridiculously excited. Sakurai really went out of his way and made Brawl FOR the fans, BY the fans. There really aren't that many surprises on the 40 character roster, other than Lip appearing as Brawl's WTF character. Enjoy, and spread the word: THIS IS THE REAL ROSTER."

What do you guys think? I actually think that its somewhat believable compared to other "leaks" I've read. I guess we'll never know for sure until Jan 24th :ohwell:

As far as I can tell, neither Ness nor Roy are anywhere on the list, including the Cut Characters section. That's pretty sloppy.

When will people stop believing what others say without proof? Seriously, we'll find out next week.

I don't mean to start any flame wars, but what's wrong with the starting roster? It's bigger than SSB64's, and the SE is obviously a big part of the game.

But yeah. Ness and Roy arn't on the Cut Characters section. I don't see Young Link on there, either.

I don't believe it, Midna really doesn't seem to be a good fighting character. Ya, and unlocking bowser... How come he was in the demo huh? This guy is obviously lying. I don't think anyone should post here, it will just give it more attention, which is bad.

NOTICE HE SAID" Game Faqs"

That just proves it fake.

They aren't talking about the number of people on it...they are talking about the people that are in it...

Captain Falcon, for example...

No newcomers. This game will have at least one newcomer in the starter roster.

I thought it was somehow confirmed sonic and snake would be unlocked in the SSE for sure?

Another? OMFG I'm about to Suplex SWF....
Quoted for Truth.

Quoted For Truth again..... I say its a slip-up on this attention wanters part.

Also; Serebii says Mewtwo is not playable (for what it's worth...)

And... how is this anymore believable than the other "leakers"? I don't buy it. If it does come true, I'll admit that I believed wrong. But, now, I just don't have any reason to believe it.

He's not wrong yet however, not until we know for sure.

Oh I also like how everyone knows what the starting roster is, do you all have the game? If so, how'd you get it so early? :) /sarcasm

While there's no reason to believe, claiming the starting roster must be false is not substantiated, considering nobody knows it. Just wait for Sakurai to throw a better argument your way.

Well, to be fair, Serebii has never actually SAID that Mewtwo isn't playable, it's just been inferred from his disconfirmations.

It's too bad that this is probably fake; I got really excited when I saw that Claus was on there. :(
