[TheCJBrine]

This one, the only complaint I've seen so far is that Black Shadow is after Ridley which is a legitimate concern, but Nintendo must have so many builds that this could be some test one, and we don't know if the order gets scrambled during the character unlocking process.

Someone posted this before; looks painted to me.

edit: is it just me, or does his arm get cut off in the bottom left of the portrait?

"Ooo, of course I like Princess Peach"
"I want to cook him in lava and serve him to my fellow Yoshis"
"Maybe they can help me ski properly"
"Ooo, a thin spindly Shy Guy!!! YUM!!!"
"She's cute, but no Peach"
"No offense to Mario, but him? A doctor? PFFFFFFFFFFT!!!"
"I WANT TO HUG HIM!!! But I might accidentally eat him..."
"Yummy bird"
"Why do I feel uncomfortable with him holding that sword?"
"I think I'll get along with this kid. Maybe he can teach me how to use a sword..."
"GAH!!! He makes Bowser look like me..."
"I have a feeling this thing might taste weird"
"Wait. Isn't he that other guy but with red hair?"
"I remember when I used to be flat. This guy didn't seem to update..."

 

[Master of Fire]

It being a typo without them saying so seems like the least likely scenario considering this isn't just an average typo, and could ruin their reputation.

Perhaps. I would certainly like to be wrong. My intuition says otherwise though. Here's to hoping!

 

[osby]

Here is mine with .

"We're pals now, even though we were rivals once."
"He can sure punch the moon, but my speed outshines that!"
"What a weirdo. Carrying all that stuff sure makes him slow."
"How was I supposed to know it was a woman and not one of Eggman's robots?"
"Sure has a lot of energy. I admire that!"
"So, he has a Warp Star that can move the speed of light, huh? I can top that!"
"He may punch and kick fast, but it's nothing if he can't hit me!"
"Electric speed? I'm all about the speed of sound and light combined! Cute, though."
"I feel bad for him. He definitely needs more attention."
"I wonder how this kid managed to get psychic powers?"
"Even in his Blue Falcon, he's still too slow!"
"A balloon with cat ears? Now I've seen everything..."

Sonic once had to deal with ghosts, so maybe Luigi and him can bond over that.

 

[KingofKoopas]

I was thinking about something else.. What would anyone feel about a non video game originating character being added to smash BUT its a character whos presence IN video games overshadows even their original media format..

What I'm saying is what would you guys think about Geralt of Rivia

POLAND CAN INTO SMASH!

Man, forgot about that somehow. Silly me.

You losers really spend money on apps? Get a lif-

Realizes I spent who knows how much on Pokemon Go, an app I don't even like.

...
It was I who had no life all along.

Pokémon Shuffle is the best Pokémon game that you don't have to spent any money on (while also playing it legally),

Simply for virtue of the fact that absolutely nothing about the game is locked behind a paywall (unless you really, really want to score highly on competitions or are super impatient about level progression).

The one caveat is that you better like Stage 37, because that's the only basic stage that gives you more than 30 (20 on Mobile) coins.

 

[Noipoi]

I feel like 's reactions would be very interesting to read.

woomy!
ge-wy!
he-by!
squeek-week!
yebby!
bwoo-by!

Spoiler

it's funny cuz you can't understand her.

He doesn't look anymore painted than the other characters imo, unless you're talking about the entire picture but I still disagree.

I can get behind this. I've played shuffle off and on for a few years now, and I haven't even paid a dime. It's a great time, and it's a blast trying to get all the Pokemon.

 

[TheCJBrine]

I dunno, his shadows just make him seem drawn.

His arm also seems to be cut-off in the bottom-left of his portrait, by his shoulder and below his name, but idk.

Do you know where it was originally?

 

[doomedtacox]

Those are yellow buttons he has.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Those are yellow buttons he has.

I noticed the buttons, but there's one spot that blends with the background that seems to be where his arm should be, as there's more black in the bottom-left corner. That area seems odd.

 

[CosmicQuark]

Naaaah, he just has a stub for his arm... and a hole in the left-side of his chest...

Good catch, I didn't notice that. It looked like a really good image, but my general feeling comes off as "fake". Can't really describe why, though.

EDIT: Huh, buttons? Every picture that comes up doesn't have buttons?

Here is mine with Sonic again.

"May keep getting kidnapped, but she is one good Olympic competitor."
"Ha, I see why Mario keeps beating this clown! He couldn't even hit someone slow!"
"What a cute couple of kiddies. Bet I could beat them in snowboarding."
"What is this, a ninja guy? WOAH! It's a girl?!"
"I wonder if she has a spell that can slow me down? Hope not."
"Oh come on! I didn't know he could be a doctor, too!"
"I wonder if this is Pikachu's baby cousin?"
"Show off! Wait, I forgot I'm a show off myself."
"Heh heh! That blade looks sharp as I am when spin dashing!"
"I didn't know Link had a kid!"
"I sense a disturbance in the Chaos Force looking at this guy..."
"I wonder who would win between this guy and Silver?"
"Who turned up the heat on this guy's sword?"
"Talk about bizarre! Did this guy get run over or something?"

Yeah I though that was another one, but maybe he doesn't have 4 in any game, I don't know enough about the character.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

"I wonder who would win between this guy and Silver?"

Shouldn't Sonic compare Mewtwo to Shadow because

Ow the edge.

Good point. Forgot about that. I like my Silver and Mewtwo quote a bit better, though.

"For being an angel, he's pretty goofy. I hope I don't mistake him for a bird..."
"Wait, THAT'S WHO THAT ROBOT EARLIER WAS?!!!"
"*sigh* Not him again..."
"Oh, you want to eat me eh? That's cute..."
"Unlike the other blue hair guy, I think I can get along with him..."
"Has an attachment to other adorable reptiles? My new best friend!!!"
"Diddy is.... okay at times I guess"
"Why's this boy always so distraught?"
"I hang out with Sonic ALL THE TIME!!! Such a cool dude!!!"
"A filling yummy bird!!!"
"I'd like to know more about this thing, but I keep eating its pets..."
"Another cute thing to hug, but I can't because of that pointy thing on his chest..."
*no comment*
"He's just like that other sword-wielding kid."
"I can see the goodness underneath that tough exterior of his. He can't fool me!!!"

Strider Hiryu, since technically the Strider manga came before the game (i think because the game was delayed into early the next year while the manga came out when they were both originally scheduled for release).

 

[TheCJBrine]

Yeah I though that was another one, but maybe he doesn't have 4 in any game, I don't know enough about the character.

Me neither; this just seems off to me somehow, mainly the shadows, as they seem to be too harsh with the change in shade.

Checking Captain Falcon's render, Black Shadow's skin seems normal, but his suit and cape still seem to lack details, but of course it's blurry so it may be hard to tell.

Does anyone know the original post?

 

[doomedtacox]

So luigifan made a really good discovery regarding the black shadow pic, it lines up perfectly with 14:40 of this treehouse demo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oPhDrn7juE), with Ridley just shifted to the left. Notice the P1 and P4 hand placements. I'm thinking this is confirmed fake now.

More with Sonic.

"I am sure I can get past that mach speed sword of his."
"I'll send this angel back to heaven in no time!"
"More agile without the suit, huh? I can keep up with that."
"Um, yeah, this guy has hygiene problems for sure."
"I'll be gone in a flash before he sneaks up on me!"
"Two handed sword with one hand? Like that's ever gonna hit me!"
"Um, as a guy who likes being free, I am not keen on controlling creatures like those.
"I just have to make sure not to slip on this monkey's bananas."
"Poor kid. Sure has been through a lot."
"No one is cooler and faster than me!"
"This guy's hammer sure puts Amy's to shame."
"How on the world could this guy be a fighter?!"
"Looks like a good fighter to take on. Bring it on!"
"An Eggman robot! I'll-wait, that's no Eggman robot!"
"Did Young Link become a cartoon just now?"
"Check it out, tough guy! Let's see what you're made of!"

 

[TheCJBrine]

Yeah I see it now, Mewtwo and Sonic are even next to each other for a split-second in the player 3 and 4 spots.

Oh right i almost forgot about him too.. It happens all the time with movies being more recognized than their original books (Jurassic Park, Jaws, The Godfather) that its so hard to think of instances other than Witcher it ever happened with a Video Game adaptation outdoing the original work in popularity by so much.

Shucks so much for one of my current wants...

Well he could still be in the game lol, just not with this specific render.

I'm aware I was hoping though this was real showing if he was in.

Yeah for sure. I never played a game with him in it, what's the character like?

 

[Dyllybirdy]

"Yummy two-course meal"

Oh.

Oh no.

 

[TheCJBrine]

Is it possible the "real leak" isn't even public?

But then why would Nintendo be flustered about it :thinking:

give us Geno


edit: well it was pointed out to me that it may be a person they found out has an image that was supposed to be secret or sumthin, and so they're trying to find him; so, nevermind. inb4 the Resetera guy brought it up for nothing

 

[KMDP]

"An Eggman robot! I'll-wait, that's no Eggman robot!"

...I think you mean "Eggman's Robot"!

 

[Dyllybirdy]

...I think you mean "Eggman's Robot"!

That's a lot of robots.

Definitely possible it isn't, and in this case they'd be flustered because it could go public at any minute without their permission.

 

[TheCJBrine]

yeah I have a feeling Resetera just wasted our time.

back to waiting and forum games honestly I just wanted it to be Sassy Geno.

[ZenythSmash]

OK, so i just caught wind with whatever Tansut talked about as of late
when i reread what he was talking about, i realized the leak being a image leak was his "assumption" only, not if it was image-based.

is there a way i can talk with Tansut? (because i don't use ResetERA and the last time i had to sign up at least during pre-ERA, it took a ****ing year.)

because i think I know what leak he's talking about.
