I'm one of Vergeben's sources, actually I'm a common source in general. The kid's a f***ing p****, I fed him some fake news to teach him a lesson. Simon Belmont.. Minecraft Stage.. HA!
Who am I? that's not important
What is that I'm in a position to leak Smash stuff
The game already has DLC planned, there's a seperate team that handles the DLC, Sakurai has very little say over them, mostly he tells them "Yay" or "Nay" on certain small details. The plan is to keep doing DLC throughout the Switch's Lifespan. Once things get in the swing you'll be looking at one character a month, this will be a big selling point once the game launches.
The base game has, in addition to those revealed
King K.Rool (revealed in July
Dixie (revealed in July
Geno (revealed in July
Bandanna Dee (Revealed in August)
Dark Samus (revealed in August)
Isaac (Revealed in September)
Chorus Men (Revealed in October)
Shadow (Revealed in October)
Chibi Robo (Revealed in October)
Saki (Revealed in November)
Bubbles (Clu Clu Land) (Revealed in December after the game launches)
DLC
Waluigi (Reggie has more pull than you think)
Rex W/ Pyra (Ordered by Sakurai himself)
Mallow (There will be a special bundle for an unnanounced Squenix game that gives you him for free)
Twintelle
Banjo Kazooie
No, Ubisoft told Nintendo to take Rabids or nothing...
Nintendo said it was up to Sakurai
They got nothing
Crash was never even considered.
Do I have them? Yes
Will I share them? Nintendo would find out who the leaker is...
It's a common thing to do when the game is being shown off to private parties... put a few "Gotchas!" in the gameplay footage that can be used to rule out everyone who wasn't in the private party
I can say that the Gotcha was a cyan Star Man (from Mario) in the character icons on the bottom.. So if you see that Cyan Star it means someone else was braver than me.
I've said too much as it is.
K.Rool drops July 9th, Dixie is in his his trailer
K. Rool has all of his personas and 4 colors for each (Kaptain, Baron, Pharoah, Aviator from DKP, and Boxer)
Geno will be released six days later, his trailer is very epic and in many ways a sequel to the Ridley trailer, as it shows Mario and Mega Man heavily damaged and tortured with villains surrounding them.. but Geno lights their darkest hour.
The October Trailer features Chibi Robo trick or treating, Shadow is one of the houses he hits, and he gives him a rock.. ignoring and disheartening Chibi Robo
Shadow is a Sonic echo.. not even his final Smash is different (It's Super Shadow)
He does have "Where's that Darn fourth Chaos Emerald" as a taunt, and Chaos Control as a victory animation
