Another leak

Translation

>LaPailleDor, 07/12/2018 :
"Ok guys, I have sources that gave me some infos on the new smash bros on the switch...Here's what I have so far :
Those characters will be playable : Simon and Richter Belmont from Castlevania, Ken from Street Fighter, Chrom from Fire Emblem Awakening, Black Shadow from F-ZERO, Isaac from Golden Sun and King K. Rool from Donkey Kong
Regarding the modes, Event matches and Boss fights will be back (With Dracula and Giygas as bosses) and along with that, there'll be the possibility of fighting on multiple stages"

Another one that got Ritcher correct before the direct even aired

The only problem with this leak is

Isabelle, shadow, geno and probably skull kid is missing in this one

I don't know what to think about this. Why is it only surfacing now? couldn't they have just edited the date to make it appear like this was before the direct?

See, now THIS is interesting because he got Ritcher and Simon.

 

[MojoRobo]

how would Giygas work as a boss lmao

The stage is his hitbox.

 

[IGuessItsOver]

how would Giygas work as a boss lmao

It could be a Mewtwo clone but with red energy moves

 

[Iridium]

If they ain’t Lyn they ain’t worth it (with Anna, Heroes characters, a Three Houses rep, Celica...or just add another Awakening rep)

Leon Yukimura Nowi. There, I did it!

 

[Untouch]

Something like this would be astronomically easy to fake, if there's no link to the post it isn't legit.

They could have. Source element is a thing.

BUT IT GOT RICHTER!

 

[Chrono.]

Yeah, inspect element is still a thing my guys.

 

[Idon]

No, no, no, that'd be stupid.

That's like making Cthulhu a boss fight.
The point is, you can't just put a baseball bat to Giygas's head and expect to win, because he's a goddamn cosmic horror.

 

[IronTed]

Him actually getting Richter is what intrigues me the most. Not all has come to pass, but that guy is looking legit right now.

Edit: Of course that's assuming it isn't faked an edited after the fact, which it still could be.

 

[Will]

how would Giygas work as a boss lmao

I was gonna say Mother 1 Giygas but you have to defeat him with music

Devil's Machine I guess.

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

Well it appears to be a text

 

[Luigi The President]

During the Giygas fight you may only use Simon and Richter, and you know why

Alright, which characters know how to pray cuz those are the only ones who are gonna be able to beat him.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Leon Yukimura Nowi. There, I did it!

Works well enough for me

Chorus Kids confirmed.

Not everyone had a Gamecube. And the series is pretty niche in the west, the series sales being like 80% Japan. Having many games doens't make the series recognizable if they doesn't sell that well.

global sales aren't everything. Character and series was big in japan much like shulk was pre smash.
gamecube exclusive establishes nintendo legacy and history whether a person had a gamecube or not is not the point. Becuase if i raised the counterpoint to geno as "everyone didnt have the system his game was on" i'd be torn apart.

And his series HAS sold well. the game with Llyod in it tales of Symphonia sold better in the US than it did Japan. it sold 1.1 million total.
only on smashboards will people are a seires with 16 plus entries is a niche game. niche games dont get that many entries. that doesnt factor in the other 15 games in the series. also if Lloyd was not a big character why does he have the mii costume in 4? Someone is requesting him. Every other mii costume is either predicted or expected or is already in in some way. only one i dont hear about is him.

 

[The_Killah29]

Everyone out here having major support for their characters they want, and here I am sitting in the corner eating my paste and wanting Kalas from Baten Kaitos.

 

[Chrono.]

>Giygas as a boss

Alright, which characters know how to pray cuz those are the only ones who are gonna be able to beat him.

The Castlevania ones use Crosses and Holy Water.

It's close enough.

 

[Flynn__]

Remember that there's a theory that Nintendo may be giving mixed information on purpose to leakers. Meaning that they may have some true information and some fake information in order to know who is leaking what. Which may explain why some leakers got some things right and some other things wrong (for example Verg knowing about Simon but not knowing about Richter or he and Loz18 having conflicting information about Isabelle).

 

[Michael the Spikester]

how would Giygas work as a boss lmao

If Porky were to make the cut Gigyas definitely would be a good replacement for an EarthBound boss.

 

[KingIceSonic]

So i heard there is talk of another direct but why are people expecting it so soon?

Huh? There's a video? And there's more DM's?

Wait wait wait.
Why are we trusting Loz again.

Guys. I thought we went over this.

Someone post the vid plz

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

If Porky were to make the cut Gigyas definitely would be a good replacement for an EarthBound boss.

Unless the fight is similar to that of Earthbound where you simultaneously fight Gigyas and Porky

 

[Luigi The President]

The video?
And also because of the incoming Nintendo Switch online.

 

[ReeseBalaski]

The Castlevania ones use Crosses and Holy Water.

It's close enough.

True. Plus every other character gets set ablaze if they're hit by the Belmonts' Holy Water, so basically they're all too sinful to beat Giygas.

 

[Will]

>can only defeat Giygas by praying really hard

She's in.

 

[Deleted member]

This """"leak"""" is lame. I miss the fake 2ch archive.

Loz18

Bye!

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Rumor is going on next direct is the 12th of September.

Hey if we can get a remix of Pokey Means Business I'm down for anything honestly.

 

[ZephyrZ]

The topic of Black Shadow support reminds me, I think it's kind of funny and sad at the sane time that I've seen Ganondorf mains reflect all five stages of grief.

Anger - "Cross-series clones shouldn't be a thing! This is injustice!"
Depression- "I guess we'll never see true Ganondorf representation in Smash."
Denial - "Ganondorf hasn't been a clone since Brawl."
Bargaining - "Give Ganon's old moveset to Black Shadow! That way he can be decloned!"
Acceptance - "At least he still reflects the most important parts of his character: raw power and disrespect."

 

[Paperchampion23]

Apparently it's real (the source is at least), someone posted another source for the page with the leak. Trying to get an actual link for it.

 

[Taco Cruise]

I saw the original post, it was taken down.

Someone took a screenshot of it and posted it in the /v/ thread about it, it was real. It is now gone. I would have screenshotted it myself but I only wanted to know if jeux video was actually real. I didn't expect the post to dissapear within a half hour.

Someone also confirmed you can only edit within 10 minutes of posting.

Alright no guys it's real, Taco Cruise confirmed it, Black Shadow's on the way thank you for your service

 

[IGuessItsOver]

>literally an edgier Batman
Yeah, i think i like him now

If it's real, where's Gothitelle?

I have a better theory: They're both full of BS and have been the whole time.

 

[SvartWolf]

BUT IT GOT RICHTER!

Comon guys, lets get ready our Gothielle matchup charts!


regarding the french leak, as long as there is isn't a reliable way to really confirm the date, is as good as any other random text leak from 4chan. (Even the Steene ones).

Still, if isaac is in, i DEMAND that his name got changed to it's french name Vlad which is like, 135,6% cooler.

 

[Luigi The President]

Tougon the inexpressible pain and sorrow you are putting me through cannot be grasped

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Alright can you smarter people figure out if we should freak out over this

This one seems like a big deal to me.

Keep an eye on it.

It got Richter and Simon together though, alongside Dracula as a boss and Stage Switch, one of the least safe guesses ever.

This one seems to be the real deal.
