So this Arle girl's from Puyo?

I can imagine the salt from whatever's left of the Lip fanbase if she got in over Lip.

 

[vaanrose]

Wish someone would just take screenshots for once in their lifetime instead of these slightly skewed motion blurred images.

Though I guess for shaking off source seekers, that's the point.

The skewed, blurry images is obviously a way to cover your poor edits. But most companies tend to question what you're doing when you take out your phone and carefully hold it steady in front of a monitor, lol.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Lol. New Villager is such a dumb leak concept.

''Sakurai will ignore other animal crossing characters for an echo/clone/rep other than Villager and just put in literally Villager with longer limbs."

 

[Will]

I will never live down New Villager.

If only I wasn't lazy enough to not edit this.

In the case of the ESRB leak, I'm assuming the workers are their by themselves or within a group. Same case may be for someone else, but I'm like 101% sure any game tester or worker in on the game are not allowed to have phones in the workplace.

Bruh that's what I'm saying.

Who cares about that little dog girl, NEW VILLAGER THO!!

Please... This is the worst one yet.

I'm actually offended holy crap...

 

[Green_Pikmin*]

I like how it says "Order by series" yet it's ordered by number.

Maybe its a option where you have to click it to actually order it by series, so in vice versa when you have the roster ordered by series it will offer you to order it by number even though the roster is currently ordered by series. (Still think its fake though).

 

[Noipoi]

New Villager?
NEW VILLAGER?
I didn't even notice that! God, put some effort into your effortless leak!
This is hilariously pathetic!

 

[Impa4Smash]

Pretty sure that's his point?


I do agree to a point. And that's why I think the sprite/model argument is a good one. If Tingle is playable, I do believe he would get his model removed from the stage too. To what, I dunno. Deku Link? Another Alfonzo joke?

Also, sprite DK isn't the same DK in Smash anyway. It's supposed to be Crnaky Kong's younger form. Either way, it doesn't much matter. Even if they're different Tingles(which they probably are), it's the same recognizable character anyway. See: Twilight Prince and OOT Link. It's the same overall recognizable guy. But that means jack-all. What it means at best is he could have one version of Tingle playable because he's a different person, but I still think he wouldn't leave Great Bay as normal for the reasons you gave.

Maybe Tingle will hypothetically be replaced in Great Bay with Purlo?

Lol. New Villager is such a dumb leak concept.

''Sakurai will ignore other animal crossing characters for an echo/clone/rep other than Villager and just put in literally Villager with longer limbs."

I mean, that's basically what Sakurai did with the Zelda series and 3 Links lol

 

[vaanrose]

Seeing all these screenshots suddenly pop in at once is really weird, like for instance:

Spoiler

What the **** is a New Villager?

"Order by Series" ain't the same font. That font Smash uses costs like 10K a license, that's why none of these smash fakers have access to it. It's also not easily pirated. I looked, lol.

 

[Zinith]

Wario is my favorite Metroid character

 

[Shroob]

Honestly, were it not for the questionable render qualities and "NEW VILLAGER", it would have been fun for five minutes.

But NEW VILLAGER is like New Coke. Dead on arrival.

 

[OdnetninAges]

I mean, that's basically what Sakurai did with the Zelda series and 3 Links lol

Imagine if an image with Toon Link was leaked in the Brawl days.

"Toon Link?
TOON LINK?
I didn't even notice that! God, put some effort into your effortless leak!
This is hilariously pathetic!"

I actually agree with Noipoi though.

 

[vaanrose]

When I made my signature I literally redrew all the numbers in Illustrator because I couldn't find the font, lol. The fonts should always be the first thing you look out for, cause it takes hecka work to recreate something so mundane.

Spoiler

What the **** is a New Villager?

Huh. Wait, isn't that a confirmed Villager alt anyway? I mean, I don't have an issue with the idea(bar the name, which unlike the other reuses of previous characters, is pretty bad), as Villager hardly covers all the proper items uses in AC itself(where my Fishing Rod?), but it's an obvious fake. Ninten doesn't have enough unique differences to help tell him apart anyway, which is why he works best as an alt reference. Dark Pit isn't the same thing either. Shadow is easily believable. Master Hand can't work as is due to the game's own design. He has nowhere to land or a way to properly play with percentages. Obvious fake is obvious.

Sure as hell looks better than some fake leaks, though. I'll give it that. Besides that, if we're getting another similar Echo, Octlings just makes more sense than Ninten right now. There's more than enough demand and popularity instead. Same with why Shadow could get in. New Villager doesn't stick out too much beyond the name(and pretty sure it's a confirmed alt color shown, so...), and as said, Master Hand ain't happening. Metal Mario would be more believable since he has a hard color compared to the outline that other actual playable Metals now have, so...

 

[Deleted member]

I don't think people have talked about the new info about New Donk City?

Spoiler: big image alert

From what it looks like, it'll be a kin to Delfino Plaza, because there's a lower level and a higher level with the two other platforms on building.

I can't wait for a fake leaker to take the plunge and get the font JUST for a fake leak.

Somebody who doesn't know how gameplay works, clearly, heh. Or researches the alts. Though I guess to be fair, Echoes have often been alt costumes... but the Order by Series, Master Hand, and Ninten still hurt this leak too much for that to matter.

 

[Blargg888]

In Melee, all 8 were in the E3 2001 trailer and FOX was last. In Brawl, 5 of the 8 were in the E3 2006 trailer, Fox was revealed later in the year and both Donkey Kong and Yoshi were among the first characters shown off in the DOJO. You know about the situation with Smash 4. But in the "Everyone is Here" trailer, the OG 8 were towards the beginning EXCEPT for Yoshi (and he wasn't in the demo).

Meh, it's frustrating but I hope they're holding him off for a damn good reason!!!

Even if he was last in the Everyone is Here trailer, it still seems silly to be frustrated over that.

I mean, that trailer was only 3.5 minutes long, it's not like you had to wait at all.
And it's not like he was last for some negative reason or anything, it was just for the sake of a mini comedy skit with Luigi.

You just gotta look at it differently.

You're seeing being last as the ultimate disrespect. But think of it like saving the best for last.

I mean, I'm not too keen on how, or where you would put Master Hand but since he is the first thing in the series you see...

Wouldn't his number be "00"?

If it was November I might humor this. But someone getting a (semi) clean photo of the entire roster in July? Nah...

It was more on the totality of everything that's happened to him since Brawl. The Everything is Here trailer is the LEAST of the problems I had, Yoshi was the only OG 8 who wasn't shown off at the demo and I fear it will amount to nothing when the game releases...

Holy **** we ALL forgot ROB.

 

[BlondeLombax]

So, you remember how people were super salty over Lucario's reveal in Wii U/3DS? Where can I find a couple of screencaps that shows off the following?
~General reactions to Mewtwo as DLC
~Reactions to Cloud
~Neo Ridley in the Pyrosphere
~Varying Mii costume reactions
~Dr. Mario's return with no knowledge of Mewtwo's return
~General reactions to the Ultimate roster (Ridley included)
~Assist Trophy snubs

I just need to laugh at how senile and sensitive those excuses for fans are. Nobody should take this game seriously at all.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

No. It goes by "when they were made playable". Master Hand would be the last unique character implemented under this idea. It isn't a problem with his placement in itself. We saw Wolf, for instance, in Melee's intro too, but he isn't playable till way later. It means introduced to the series but also when playable.

Wario is my favorite Metroid character

Wario and Samus are cousins, you know. Designed by the same guy

He's no longer the last of his kind.
Because there aren't any more.

 

[StormC]

I've long held the belief that R.O.B. is the most forgettable Smash character despite his role in the SSE and this only confirms that for me.

 

[Will]

I think it's only bad when you compare it to Diddy Kong. People who try to make Dixie Kong from scratch never seem to nail down the Kong look.

That's the smile she has while stepping all over K.Rool fans hopes and dreams, of course.

To it's defense Master Hand was almost made a playable character in Melee..and actually is in an incomplete stage due to a glitch found back in the day.
I was there when the glitch was found, and the whole boards lost their minds. Fun times.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Hey, Villager did it first!

Anyway, the odd part is New Villager would work better as an Echo than Isabelle, who would make more sense as a clone, semi-clone, or unique.

 

[Shroob]

Seriously though, what is it about ROB?

NO ONE mentioned that "Oh hey, ROB's missing", and yeah, there were VERY obvious tells that it was fake before, that would have killed it before people even picked up on the ridiculous stuff like "New Villager"

......but poor ROB. He's just... soo forgettable.

HE DON'T EVEN GOT A HOME STAGE, MANG
