You know, this leak opened a very big door again : the possibilty of other DLCs in the future.
As we can see, Rayman was technically announced by his trophy. Mewtwo also got his own trophy in the game, but still is a DLC. By the trophies, the leak opened a possibilty of actually having back some veterans.

Here's a probable list of them :
High : :lucas:, :wolf:
Low : :roypm:, :ivysaur:, :squirtle:, :pichumelee:, :younglinkmelee:
Inexistant : :snake:, :pt:, :popo:

It's a personal list, but some of them do make sense. For Lucas and Wolf, the representation number, as well as the trophy of both of them give them the highest possibility of a comeback for them.
For the "Low" tier, Roy can't really enter due to being a simple clone of Marth. His place has already been taken by Lucina and ironically a Koopaling. Squirtle and Ivysaur could return thanks to their originality, but the representation of Pokemon is already enough. Same goes for Pichu, but even lower due to being a clone. Young Link has the same reason as Roy.
The "Inexistant" tier is obvious : Snake won't return for sure, and Pokemon Trainer and Ice Climbers won't return due to technical limitations by the 3DS.

In short : thanks to this leak, the DLC door is reopened, but only for some characters.
I wouldn't say Snake is out of the picture yet since Kojima explicitly said that Sakurai still has permission.

And Popo might come back if reworked somehow. I personally wouldn't mind SoPo/SoNa.

I would take SoPo if they added Nolimar, Bronze Sword only Robin, and Rosalina without a Luma as separate characters

Popo and Nana won't return. It's simple as that.
Nobody gaved a damn about them for casuals. Competitive players hate them due to Brawl (and a bit of Melee). Sakurai put them in low priorities for the game.
They won't return. Rayman had a chance : Ubisoft took it, maybe late, but took it anyway. Popo and Nana won't : the 3DS can't handle them.
Now, putting Popo (Nana as an alternate costume) alone would be...sad. And it would upset some people. Even I don't want to see them alone, it destroys their actual playstyle.

So, in short : say farewell to them.

Oh, and for Snake ? Still a possibility, but it's really low.

Seriously, am I the only one who actually enjoyed Ice Climber?

Got to agree with you, I just don't understand why Lucas and Wolf were cut (baring saving them for DLC which would be dark for Nintendo). Snake I would've said yes to as well, but I can't imagine a Smash game with 5 non-Nintendo IPs. Maybe Roy or Young Link? Having 3 Links would be hilarious.

Roy is already dead. :4lucina: took his place. He has no trophy, whatsoever. The only reference to him is a palette swap for Marth. And there's this :4roy: already.

So yeah, even :younglinkmelee: has more chance to comeback than this boy.

I swear I've seen this reposted a dozen times in the past 24 hours. >.>
Pretty sure the "photoshopped Little Mac" argument was posted every single page back in August too. Bonus points go to CliffJumper, who still thought it was fake when the VIDEOS surfaced because the videos had the same render.

In words, he believed the renders had no right to exist? :laugh:

I'm glad that DLC is really becoming a thing. Now to wait for more veterans. Please be back, :lucas: & :wolf:.

It's funny that there's already future DLC rumours even before the first one is released.

Maybe Nintendo is secretly releasing leaks to create more hype to get people more excited, and then deny all logic whilst they murmur away in the dark caves on Nintendo HQ, plotting their entire DLC releases listed down on a top secret document. Then, Ubisoft will deny all Rayman DLC, causing a denial in the leak, and then BAM, Rayman confirmed.

It's been here all along... It's Rayception.

(Or I'm just beind stupid. Yeah, probably stupid).

If Wolf's voice is changed, I'll care about him significantly less.

"What's the matter, scared?"
"We're gonna have fun with this thing"
"Play time's over, Star Fox."

Though I suppose it would give me reason to play Brawl. Brawl Falco vs. Brawl Wolf.

Yeah, uh huh. Are you just saying that in hindsight because the leak was true?
The video with the match on Yoshi's Island did seem a bit...off to me. and I could see where people were coming from with the photoshop accusations.
I always thought it was real, though I could see that there was reasonable room for doubt with the images. When the videos surfaced though, especially with Bowser Jr., I thought that there was no way they could be false. Sure, if the only videos that came out were the Shulk ones it would have been a little more fishy, but even then, Shulk's animations did not match any Brawl hack, and were above the quality of most hacks. It would have taken a long time to fake the images, and the video, especially considering Monado would have required a custom boneset in order to animate like it did in the video, as well as custom GFX for the beam. And that's not even getting into what one would need to do to fake Bowser Jr. gameplay using Brawl.

I just thought calling out videos because of the "photoshop render" was the dumbest thing you could call them out on. Not the stage and character choices, just a render that has 2 seconds of screen time at the end of one of the videos.
