Pretty sure it's tilted. The picture was taken at an angle so it would probably give that illusion.

Look at the distance between the edge of the star and the top of the numbers in each picture. One of them shows the number and the star overlapping while the other doesn't.

Not as much as it should be.

In the first image, you can see the star tilting into the 9. It's nowhere near that in the 2nd.

What I know about angles. If that were the case, then the star would have to look even more tilted from the left side. For it to being more upward would be much more convincing if the screen was tilted to the other side.

Spoiler: Pokefloats?

Possible stage and character leak? I got this image from the Source Gaming discord but it originates from 4Chan

Fake or not it looks really good

Not gonna lie I freaked out at the sight of my baby boy.

Whew.

The dude posted one final bit of info on his 4chan thread.

"Spirit mode bosses will be

>Yellow Devil
>Dino Piranha
>Metal Face
>Phantoon
>Dr. Eggman Death Egg Robot
>Dracula
>Wham Bam Rock
>Rathalos
>Marx
>Gohma
>Necrozma

There is a True Arena mode which has harder versions

>Shadow Devil
>Fiery Dino Pirahnha
>Metal Face X
>Phantoon X
>Dr. Eggman Egg Wyvern
>Dracula Symphony of the Night final boss
>Wham Bam Jewel
>Azure Rathalos
>Marx Soul
>Gohma Plus
>Necrozma Dusk Mane or Dawn Wings"

Two Kirby bosses taken from games Sakurai made? Yeah, I could believe this.

But seriously, real or not, this is a subpar list of bosses.

Wonder if the Japanese earthquake was why we didn't have the Direct today

 

[Enchess]

Ok, WTF did I miss while I was at work? Pokefloats 2? This better be ****ing real. I don't even care that I don't want Skull Kid or Bandana Dee. Pokefloats 2 would be amazing.

Anything else part of that, or just that?

Due to the powerful earthquake in Hokkaido, Japan, we have decided to delay this week’s planned Nintendo Direct. We will provide a new time and date in the near future. Thank you for your understanding. pic.twitter.com/IITgJFtzub

how would a gohma fight even work? you need to shoot his eye before you can attack it...

That list of bosses I posted is fake, of course, but damn, a "True Arena" mode for Smash bosses sounds cool as ****.

 

[Shroob]

Hit the eye

 

[ZephyrZ]

Smash has taken creative liberties plenty of times before. It could simply be that you attack its eye directly rather then with an arrow.

That said, I still don't buy that leak at all.

 

[Meritocracy]

In my experience, the best way to enter a forum is with a game, so here we go, (yes, I'm stealing from the would you rather thread, but I really liked this one and haven't seen it used here yet) if your most wanted gets in, would you rather have them be so overpowered, you get crap for using it, or so low-tier they aren't even a charecter.

 

[Zinith]

Remember that Petey Piranha boss in Brawl where you had to inflate him with water to make him keel over?

Oh wait...

Low tier, because then when I beat people senseless with them I lose a friend

Welcome to hell.

Welcome, I hope you find yourself comfortable here! Have fun.

Also, I'd rather Paper Mario be so low-tier because I'd hone my skills and whoop ass as him anyway.

 

[MoonlitIllusion]

Hit the eye

yeah but how? to actually hit the eye it'd have to be facing the character rather than the screen and the whole thing would look awkward. I just think other zelda bosses would make more sense

Overpowered

Skull Kid will conquer all

Wait, no, low-tier so that I can use Skull as the trickster he is.

edit: whoops sorry, Welcome to Smashboards

Watch somebody invest a few thousand dollars in building a similar room just for their 15 minutes of fame.

Andross (64 version) [Star Fox]
Giratina [Pokemon]
Porky [Earthbound]

I got crapped on for playing Cloud in Smash 4, wouldn't be anything new.

I would rather them be lowtier so that they wouldn't be complainined about like Bayo and Cloud

Boshi being OP would fit his personality a LOT. If he gets **** on for being so, not my problem as I'll use my boi instead

 

[SvartWolf]

Regarding the pokefloats image, which is very nice but very fake, i want to point 2 extra issues, so maybe next time they can make it even more convincing.

First, Sakurai go great lenghts to ensure that characters look good sideways (wo the point that even twisting some spines) and that screen Skull kid, while in hivs very iconic pose, looks terrible sideways (probably the faker posed him facing him)

Second, the camera is focusing Skull kid, and not giving 2 damns about bandana dee leaving him in a VERY VERY awkward screen position. Smash camera is way better than this...

looking forward to see more fakes like this :D

 

[Untouch]

Anyways, the blog should be updating in around 10 minutes, we'll see if it actually updates.

I find there to be something kind of rewarding about using a bad character. I feel super proud of my wins with Smash 4 Charizard and I also feel unique since I rarely ever see anyone else using him.

Although even if my most wanted does get in I'm still maining Pokemon Trainer, regardless of tier.

 

[Chrono.]

I really wouldn't expect anything substantial from the blog.

 

[Deleted member]

I wonder, do we still only have just a "16GB - 16+GB" file size named currently for Smash Ultimate? I figured the file size might've already gotten word of, but it does make me wonder. Speaking of file sizes, Xenoblade 2: Torna DLC is 3.2GB. Y'know, a whole 7-chapter game, huge land masses, cutscenes, all 3D... And to give context, the original game was 13.1GB.
"Ehhh, we'll make it work, mate! Show 'em a thing or three!"

also my wish list on the eShop JUST hit 60 items, jesus take the wheel

Imagine if the Pokefloats leak had featured Boshi and then turned out to be fake. At least we would've been here to support you.

low-tier! because i'm going to put hours and hours into learning them and i will be an unstoppable force of determination and potentially octopus, and i'd try to aim for the top!
(welcome, by the way!)

Hit the eye

Would be cool if you could summon the Moon assist trophy for this boss fight.

The former. However, if they're gonna be OP, I'd at least like for the character to have a high learning-curve. Not many people would use the character online, so at least I would get a little bit of respect for picking a more difficult character.
