Smash Ultimate Leak Discussion Thread

[Nintrendo]

So is tomorrow the last day for the “New” to be removed from the Fighters square on the Smash website if Steve were to be announced at Minecon?

Why would tomorrow be the last day for the New to be there? you think that we are getting Steve as the only newcomer than you are most likely mistaken

At this point anything from 4chan is guaranteed to be fake.

The new was removed between the August direct and Isabelle's reveal. If the new is removed, it might indicate that a new character is approaching soon at which point, the new would reappear after the reveal.

You say that, but Ken.

Pokefloats...
yeah it's fake
Rule Number 77 Of Leak Making: never put Pokefloats in your fake leak. It makes it very obvious...

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Anyone else besides him and Incineroar.

 

[Luigi The President]

Anyone else besides him and Incineroar.

"Anything besides the things that are true from 4Chan is fake"

 

[CroonerMike]

I can’t wait until we get just ken and incineroar. I’m also holding out hope for Steve just so I can see this place go nuts.

 

[T3Z3R1]

At this point anything from 4chan is guaranteed to be fake.

If 4chan does actually post some suspicious picture of unannounced fighters and then it's guaranteed to be legit or fake if it's photoshopped.

 

[TyrantLizardKing]

I'm not calling Incineroar a "lock" until I see him confirmed by Nintendo themselves.

 

[TeenGirlSquad]

I'm on 4chan for every leak season because the legit stuff almost always shows up there first. Like for the USUM sprites, I was right there when the thread was posted (and everyone thought that Zeraora would be way cooler than what its 3D model turned out to be lol), same for Sun and Moon when the dex leaked etc. It's just way safer for leakers to post images there, and usually even the legit text leaks are there first (like with LGPE). So yeah, it's not accurate to say "if it comes from 4chan, it's fake!", it would be more accurate to say "only a small percentage of all the **** that's posted there is real, but it definitely COULD be real".

Yep. Just like how Incineroar, Decidueye, and Primarina were leaked a few days after Sun and Moon were announced. Everyone thought they were fake but I always felt they were credible

 

[Noipoi]

It was actually four months after Sun and Moon's reveal, but your point still stands.

My inner Poke-nerd couldn't let this piece of slight misinformation go unchecked .

Your right. Sorry I remember it being close to E3 when the images began to leak. I think maybe July I think. All I remember was Litten being shown and then I saw the images a few days later and had the feeling in my gut they were correct

I'm genuinely starting to get bored of 4chan's fakes leaks... I can't believe I'm saying this but... nowadays they're just
>Ken
>Incineroar
>Steve
>Geno
Throw to the mix
>Dixie
>Shadow
>Isaac
>Bandana Dee

And voila! 99% of 4chan leaks.
Genuinely hope there is something wrong like Steve being not playable or the SE Characters being Something else than Geno.

 

[ZenythSmash]

Remember how that Senjougahara guy said Steve was gonna be in Smash? He also said a female Skullomania was gonna be in that SNK fanservice game.

Look what just popped up.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

keep in dear mind he also called Samurai Spirits in futher details
also somebody put together all the major stuff he rumored in one and organized it

Spoiler: Hitagi leaks+Vergeben stuff; spoiled since it has explicit language Smashboards doesn't allow.

I'm outright positive that these last couple months are going to be surprising as ****. I've considered this game unleakable (In the sense that any legitimate leak would be considered too unbelievable to be true) since 8/8 and it's only proving more true. I personally don't think Sakurai is lying when he says there's few characters left, But I think he is being intentionally coy about as a means to be the crowd pleaser he actually is.

 

[alemerltoucanet]

Wow first Lucina then Lucario, that's got to be an extra kick in the nuts to the guy who said the first fighter post this week would be Lucas.

He's taking a bunch of Ls... Literally. XD

YOU TAKE THAT BACK, SON.

While watching papagenos video I didn’t know there is a leaker Master0fHyrule who posted picture of Battlefield stage designs as well the Smash items shown at the E3 floor before E3.

https://youtu.be/Q2Jk9r1YBOU

Now the leaker returns to say his sources seem to say these characters are coming.

Sora, Geno and Steve.

Be sure to watch the video at 14:30 to hear about that leaker. Also, papagenos makes great videos.

Fight me dude. I'll take Steiner from FF9 just to be surprised with a sick Magisword gameplay and I'll take my FF9 2songs

I have a feeling there's still stuff left that will blindside everyone, even if it isn't character related (although I do think we could have another Richter situation).

I mean, I thought it was a unique pick. But there is no way Sakurai would upgrade Waluigi from AT to playable.... after showing him to us as an Assist. Unless he pulled something like... "Whenever they aren't in the fight, any other fighter may show up as an Assist trophy fighter... and when they are, ALPHONSO!"

he found Isabelle art and ETC. from somewhere he hacked (he did not specify)

mmmhm.
the vagueness of the post makes it clear that this person knows nothing about hacking
super duper fake

unique, but super fake nonetheless. they did an okay job imitating the way directs are written, but there's one fatal flaw: if the ken photo leak is to be believed, ken is based on street fighter 3, not 2. also, it's of course incompatible with vergeben, and waluigi is obviously not a likely inclusion due to his apparent assist trophy status, and ganon being an echo fighter is a little hard to believe.

I really don't understand why people go to such great lengths to make a leak like this, and then throw it all away by adding Waluigi. The only way Wauigi would ever make it base game is if the game was delayed just for him, which isn't going to happen.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Bowser perhaps? Idk, even that's stretching it...

Dude, he got his leaks straightly from 4chan, google searches, Reddit, and "links to site that he claims was lost". This is why it is red flag that this leak was based on popular speculation of Steve, Incienroar, and Ken being in the smash as new fighters.

I know that he did leaked some battlefield assists from E3 BEFORE the E3. But, I'm sure that it isn't same source that he got that **** from.

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

I think Steve and the Square Enix rep might actually be our first DLC characters and that's why all the leakers were so iffy on their inclusion...

I dunno though. I don't see Steve making it into base game but if Sakurai somehow, some way pulled out a time traveling miracle and got him in base game I would be astonished. Truly awestruck by the dude. It's one thing to make a game like this. It's a whole 'nother to got to Konami, Sega, Namco, Capcom, Square, AND ****in Microsoft to get them to participate in a single game and work everything out where all these companies are happy with their representation in the game.

My thing is, yeah The N and M are buddy buddy right now but they weren't in 2015. If Steve IS in, and right now I have no reason to doubt Vergeben or Senjougahara's credibility right now, then I think he'll be one our first DLC even Senjo said that might be the case. We'll see I guess.

I think Steve is in. It's weird to say. I think he'll be one of the first of DLC though.

It's like either they're being facetious and that's part of the punchline, or serious and don't realize it takes years to develop a character.

I would love Microsoft to participate--just in a different way...

And also we should be pretty confident Minecraft content is in, in some form. So I feel like their inclusion is guaranteed, even if it's not a character (which is not all Smash is despite how much we focus on it).
