I wouldn't go as far as calling these people idiots; that's an insult. Rather, you should just use common sense. And either way the show isn't over so everyone should chill.

Even if there is no smash, why be upset? It's not the only thing going on in life.
Ain't the case with most of the people here.

Haha this is ****ing priceless. It's not their fault that YOU decided to get YOUR expectations up for something that literally NOBODY actually hinted towards. Not everything has to be a massive "HOLY **** MASSIVE NEW UPDATE INSTANT BUY ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN" update. Do you expect them to pull a new announcement out of thin air because the news they were going to show was leaked a few days before announcement? Grow the **** up and stop blaming Nintendo because YOU decided that this was a big, industry-shaking announcement for literally no reason.

You aren't helping, bro.

I'm excited for Cranky Kong/ Scrooge McDuck in Tropical Freeze.

All I could think of was "Cranky * clap clap* Kong in space, yeah you're really grumpy and you're old..."

Also, let's have a big F*** YEAH that we didn't get a reveal of the Mii.

That means we can let that "leak" slip away into obscurity and not fear for Little Mac becoming an Assist Trophy again any longer.

Disappointing, particularly since it was something we already knew. I'm not sure if it would have been that groundbreaking even if it came as a complete surprise though. It's not exactly a reveal on the same level as the others.
So you knew that Cranky would be a DKC version of Scrooge McDuck?

You people are acting like all they did was show the leaked boxart again and act like nothing had happened. Did you seriously expect them to throw together a new trailer or demo for another game in a week just because somebody leaked some f***ing boxart?

Well i expected this but im still a tad disappointed, but im not gonna rage about it.

I guess it was kinda nice that we saw something we already knew, I guess.

And yeah obviously with a CANE in the boxart I immediately thought, scrooge mc duck. So yeah still nothing major.

' You whippersnappers just don't appreciate anything these days- back in MY DAYS we only got to see new games when they actually CAME OUT TO THE PUBLIC! Or just subscribing to some poorly written magazines while they'd be still on development.

Serves you spoiled "gamers" right. '

That was the same rumor that stated Shulk was going to be an Assist Trophy correct.

If so, I'm in the same boat. Not that I put my heart and soul into the rumor anyway.

Think of it this way: If Cranky were leaked for Smash, Sakurai would cancel the game.
So you're lucky I guess.

And somebody found the silver lining to all of this. I totally forgot about that and I'm glad that was shot down. Little Mac lives on!

Ah yes, the silver lining. That said, be aware, we could still get Mii for Smash 4 regardless.

I still think the Mii is going to happen, I just was worried about it being shown off specifically in December, when this horrible "leak" said it would, along with dooming Little Mac and Shulk to AT status.

That.

You're not a True Nintendo Fan unless you demand Zelda. You're not a True Retro Fan unless you demand Metroid. Everything else is boring...a disappointment...a letdown...stupid...

I'm just content we got anything at this point.
Yes.
Smash is evreything.

You're not a True Smash Fan unless you demand Smash at every single show.
No Smash = no life = no love = no goodness = no justice = no peace

Can I eat dinner now? Is everybody calm?

Those were two separate rumors.

The Assist Trophy fates rumor was that Miis would be shown on the next Nintendo Direct.
The "Reggie will show off Miis at VGX" had nothing to do with that, since obviously, if Miis were shown at VGX, they wouldn't be revealed in the next Nintendo Direct, would they?


So no, don't celebrate the "safety" of your characters just yet.

I was talking about the fact that Cranky was playable in Tropical Freeze. Not everyone cares about about the nitty gritty details.

Did I ever say I expected them to do anything? I said it was disappointing because it was. Nothing more than that.

I stand corrected. Ah well, I still enjoyed the reveal nonetheless. Not everyone seems to agree, however...

Always a silver lining to be found. :)

I love how ballsy butthurt fanboys can be.

"How dare you not show off Smash Bros! I'll let you sleep in chloroform and poisonous ants once my mommy goes to bed! Xbox One will b*tch slap your console now! Take that, you man-loving result of the internet!"

And they all died. The world rejoiced.
