Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[KingBroly]

They apparently did something for Assassin's Creed Unity

[SoccerStar9001]

This leak reminds me of an Ace Attorney case, haha. I love it.

Which one?

 

[nintenplayer]

No because this is many layers of crazy. That was just several layers set in a rather calm and enlongated speculation period. This happened in a period crammed within several months with several intense thirst inducing droughts.

These people are rabid, I say! RABBID!!!!

RABBIDS CONFIRMED?


...low hanging fruit, yeah. It just kinda came out. Sorry.

 

[Chrono.]

So what's new.

 

[Chrollo.]

More gaming stuff

Edit: It's a Mobile game, but still.

 

[SebasSancy]

I'm so lost right now, so it is fake or real?

The only thing I know for sure is that the next smash direct would be the more hype up yet hahah

 

[xjthegulpin]

Which one?

Dual Destinies Case 2 lmao

 

[Gyrom8]

WHAT IF .... we are getting seven more newcomers. But none of the ones in the leak.

 

[Cosmic77]

Because it never dies.
It'll keep coming back, over and over, to make people keep asking why people keep saying it keeps coming back, when in reality what keeps coming back is the friends we made along the way.

The friends we made along the way? More like the friends we've lost along the way after passionately arguing about a blurry leak named after a Dr. Seuss character.

Seriously, a few people here are getting way too involved with this.

 

[Untouch]

So what's new.

The company in the leak did not work on Smash info.
The guy in the leak doesn't work for the company either, he left in 2016.
We found his new company and are in process of destroying that company's reputation too.

[Aternel]

Nintendo Actu (french fansite) called his new workplace, ACP-PLV, yesterday and confirmed Eric is a real person working for them at the moment. They do Point of Sale displays https://twitter.com/NintendoActu/status/1055128180296769537

 

[BluePikmin11]

If the leak is fake, I personally do not consider it to be the biggest fake leak in Smash history.

The Artsy Omni leak beats it tenfold IMO.

 

[FalconFire93]

Confirmed to have worked on gaming stuff.

View attachment 171895

And thus, the plot thickens.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

I'm pretty sure people were looking into ACP-PLV from the start, no? It's the first I've heard of this Marina company at least.

 

[SoccerStar9001]

So what's new.

Team Fake thought they won when one of the leak company claimed the leaker isn't working there for over two years and the leak had nothing to do with them.
Minutes later we find new leak company and we are now back to square one.

 

[Pyra]

These people are rabid, I say! RABBID!!!!

I'm blaming you if rabbids make it into Smash.

The friends we made along the way? More like the friends we've lost along the way after passionately arguing about a blurry leak named after a Dr. Seuss character.

Seriously, a few people here are getting way too involved with this.

I've not lost friends because I only really talk to and respond to people who are relatively more level headed, unless I feel like butting heads with someone, but they probably weren't my friend in the first place.

 

[Venus of the Desert Bloom]

So what's new.

We are getting Banjo and Kazooie, Sora, Ken, Shadow, Geno, Mach Rider, and Chorus Kids and the Grinch stole Christmas yet again.

 

[nintenplayer]

WHAT IF .... we are getting seven more newcomers. But none of the ones in the leak.

It's actually just Incineroar and 6 of them are his echoes.

 

[JustCallMeJon]

Nintendo Actu (french fansite) called his new workplace, ACP-PLV, yesterday and confirmed Eric is a real person working for them at the moment. They do Point of Sale displays https://twitter.com/NintendoActu/status/1055128180296769537

That information is revealed a LOONG TIME AGO bud.

 

[TheoreticalMyth]

The company in the leak did not work on Smash info.
The guy in the leak doesn't work for the company either, he left in 2016.
We found his new company and are in process of destroying that company's reputation too.

So wait, I'm still team real, but how do we know this leak has any validity if he doesn't work there anymore?

That matches up with what they have on the site, but goes against having a hanging display.

Again, I'm on #TeamWait.

 

[KingBroly]

The irony of Smash's roster potentially leaking due to a prior relationship with Ubisoft is immeasurable.

In case no one posted this yet, a reddit user had this to say which makes total sense and keeps it alive:
So, upon further investigation, I don't think this means anything.

There are two Eric Bricard LinkedIn accounts:

https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-bricard-25b718103/

https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-bricard-446384173/

The former is the one that links Marina PLV, the latter one links ACP PLV, where he's worked for 1 year and 8 months. They list the same education, so it's clearly the same person. So...this lines up with him leaving Marina PLV in November 2016 assuming he got the new job a couple months later.

We might have been wrong about which printing company this was from all along. The leak might be from ACP PLV and not Marina PLV.

I'm a little less confident in this leak than I was a day ago, but I don't think it's dead quite yet.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Mathew Taranto (the guy who did Brawl in the Family) posted this, and it's way too amazing, and I thought I'd share it with you guys.
Credit to Matthew Taranto

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Chrollo.]

Really from what I got from the site is that they've done stuff for Video Games before but I don't see any hanging displays

Team Wait And See continues to stay strong

 

[Potato_]

Nothing on the site really relates to Illumination in any way.

Not sure how to proceed from here other than wait, I doubt they'd tell us "Oh yeah we've worked for them in the past!" so I don't think there's any point in contacting them. Then again IDK.

Translation:
Rumors of privacy leak on the latest version of the super smash bros game report a link to our company. All these rumors only support one idea, journalism is not limited to searching google.
Indeed, the person involved in this "rumor", if so, is no longer present in our company since November 2016., which has not put its linkedin profile up to date, some wanted to make a rapprochement with The Marina workshops that cannot exist.
Namco is a company we have worked with and with which we want to work again, this is not the case currently for the launch of super smash bros ultimate. These rumours are therefore discrediting our widely recognized professionalism, particularly with regard to our confidentiality commitments.
We are now contacting all these sites and namco / Nintendo to remove this false information and evaluate the judicial suites to be given.
The Marina Team.

Well, there you g--

Ah ****

If the leak is fake, I personally do not consider it to be the biggest fake leak in Smash history.

The Artsy Omni leak beats it tenfold IMO.

IMO this one beats out Omni because it doesn’t seem to be a promotional gimmick for a YouTube series.

Inb4 Ezio gets leaked in the process as well

Ok so basically grinch confirmed with goku echo is what you guys are saying

 

[KMDP]

*begins screaming obnoxiously*

 

[Untouch]

I'm pretty sure people were looking into ACP-PLV from the start, no? It's the first I've heard of this Marina company at least.

I think people were mostly looking into Marina because of their connections to Illumination/The Grinch.

 

[SuperMasterHand]

The Artsy Omni leak beats it tenfold IMO.

This leak of Smash Ultimate is way more impressive than a very skilled edited video
If it's fake, it means someone had the idea to fake something inside an printer, using the name of someone on linked in, fake a grinch render and all...
The art editing is not as impressive as the Rayman leak for sure, but the way it's ''promoted'' is really genious if it turns out to be a fake

 

[Chrollo.]

Ok so basically grinch confirmed with goku echo is what you guys are saying

actually hes a sans echo with donkey kong's up b

 

[Cosmic77]

Honestly, I think people are more caught up with the details surrounding the leak than the blurry picture itself.

The thing that made Artsy Omni's leak so impressive was the fact that it was (1) Not as blurry as other faked leaks, and (2) A video as opposed to a single picture.

 

[Pazzo.]

No ties or connections to Nintendo or The Grinch movie.

Oi, I'm going to need something stronger than cider today.

That would turn the entire galaxy to salt.
