I have some knowledge about the next Super Smash Bros. game that I would like to share. An acquaintance of mine has some connections in Japan, and reluctantly divulged some information about the game. He also gave me some insight on the series's future.
- Some lower priority characters (Jigglypuff, Little Mac, Snake, and R.O.B.) haven't been worked on yet and are likely not to appear.
- Fire Emblem doesn't have any new representatives because Sakura didn't think Chrom or Lucina would work. Roy was almost brought back, but ended up being dropped.
- Ike will return. He was recently finished and was the last character Sakura finished before putting everyone else on hold (if there is time at the end of development before release work will begin on them). His design is closer to his Fire Emblem: Awakening design, and his sword is now a creamy white instead of the previous gold color.
- The remaining members of the original twelve will return. Ness is becoming less and less important to Sakura with each passing installment, but he wouldn't dare cut off half of Mother's representation.
- Pokemon Trainer returns for one reason alone: convenience. The team just imported Brawl's version of the characters and touched up the models. Generation six starters were considered to replace the original three, but it was easier just to keep the same characters.
- Mewtwo returns, as planned. They haven't really changed his attacks much, and is reportedly not buffed much since melee.
- Lucario was a high priority and is likely to continue in every game forward.
- Lucas, Wario, Diddy Kong, Faclo, Wolf, Ganondorf, The Climbers, Game & Watch, Meta Knight, Shiek (in moveset), and Zero Suit Samus (now easier to access in-game) are back.
- Several newcomers were proposed but ultimately cut: Hades, Toad (replaced by Rosalina and inserted back into Peach's moveset), Pac-Man, and Charizard by himself.
- Newcomers Ridley, Dixie Kong, Palutena, Shulk, Takamaru, and a secret character kept up high are the unnanounced newcomers.
- The Wii U gets a Mario Kart stage, a Kirby's Yarn stage, and an F-Zero stage, among others.
- The 3DS gets a Pokemon Staduim stage and a Star Fox 64 stage, among others.
- Scrapped characters Roy and Dr. Mario are now Assist trophies.
- The fifth game is already being worked on by Nintendo EAD, until Smash 4 finished development. They want it out for the next Nintendo console at launch.
- There will be a system bundle for the Wii U with SSB4 included.

 

[Snagrio]

Sigh well if nothing interesting is going I guess I'll continue playing Xenoblade (and imagine Shulk battling Mario).

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

can we get around to infracting obviously 'le fake ' 'I know sakurai's cat he told me the rooster' leaks? There was talks about that a while ago but nothing seems to have happened.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Huh, surprised how quiet GameFAQs is. Normally a handful of "leaks" would appear when a character gets revealed. Has GameFAQs actually turn sane (what the hell am I saying)?

I stopped at the first point. Snake is either in or out since he's third party. No questions. Fake.

A system bundle sounds nice. A Star Fox 64 stage, though? Waa?

 

[Arcanir]

Snake? A third Party Character they had to go through hoops for, is a low priority character?

Yeah, calling Bull**** on that one.

Pathetic.

Dr. Mario is an assist trophy? Really?
Plans for Smash 5 are already on?
Even Sakurai's name has been misspelled. lol

 

[CombatScouter]

It doesn't matter if rumors are detailed or not. Anyone can make a leak and make it seem believable.

If my troll leak doesn't further this point, I don't know what will.

(Yes, I had another reason besides my own pleasure for making this "leak".)

Which is why we need to approach all leaks with caution.

I'm not saying that the Pokemon leak was 100% believable, but I'm much more inclined to invest in a rumour that at least attempts to explain a few things, without dropping a bombshell like this:

It will also create loads of drama like Sega’s exclusivity deal did.

and leaving it at that.

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

A system bundle sounds nice. A Star Fox 64 stage, though? Waa?

Star Fox 64 3D was the last Star Fox game.

But the series isn't dead or low priority guys.

And this has Pac-Man removed, which I call bull****...

 

[Mdilly99]

I remember member in here recently saying there going to make a jpn leak soon, this may be it

What may be it?

 

[dezeray112]

What may be it?

Same here. I wonder what this jpn leak is all about unless I missed something.

 

[Shroob]

if my guess it's correct, it's that post on 4chan which said 12 newcomers, but 7 cuts.

 

[BindingBlade]

Seven cuts.

 

[FalKoopa]

>7 cuts
>Toon Link and Lucario are back unscathed.

If this doesn't prove it false right away, I don't know what will.

 

[Shroob]

>7 cuts
>Toon Link and Lucario are back unscathed.

If this doesn't prove it false right away, I don't know what will.

The problem is plays it ridiculously safe. It cuts Lucas, R.O.B., Wolf, Ike, PKMN Trainer, Jigglypuff and Snake and adds in Mewtwo, Charizard as a standalone fighter, Dixie, Little Mac, Chrom, Palutena, Shulk and Ridley. It also throws in a wtf at Jill Dozer.

 

[Midge]

I'm calling fake due to Jigglypuff being cut. Sakurai has never cut a member of the original 12. Sure that could change, but i honestly don't believe it will.

 

[Deleted member]

The fact it could happen means that something isn't automatically fake because of Jigglypuff being cut.

That being said, it's another typical Gamefaqs "leak". Nothing of value to see.

 

[Shroob]

I'd say it's a little more than just a typical leak, since they actually put effort in spelling their Japanese names correctly in Japanese characters, but that could be true.

 

[FalKoopa]

I don't think cutting PT is playing safe.

Overall, he slashed half of Brawl's Pokémon cast, and brought down the number of playable pokémon from 6 to 4. A rather unlikely scenario, if I do say so myself.

Nono, even I can tell the one BKuppa posted is fake.

 

[Mysteltainn]

Who the heck is Jill Drozer? Lolz

 

[swordbreaker]

Rumor is garbage. Sakurai considers Wii U and 3DS Smash as 4 and 5

 

[Shroob]

Who the heck is Jill Drozer? Lolz

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_Dozer

She was an assist trophy in Brawl.

 

[Morbi]

I don't think cutting PT is playing safe.

Overall, he slashed half of Brawl's Pokémon cast, and brought down the number of playable pokémon from 6 to 4. A rather unlikely scenario, if I do say so myself.

Not necessarily, most advocates of cutting Pokemon Trainer want Charizard to replace him, as he represents everything Charizard represents minus the trainer aspect. Again, most that actually speculate for a Pokemon Trainer cut expect Mewtwo to return. Thus, Pokemon would actually have 5 playable characters, and I doubt anyone would be entirely opposed to getting another Pokemon Newcomer like Meowth or possibly Zoroark (maybe even Blaziken). It is just that many do not even enjoy the convoluted mechanics attached to the character in the first place. So you are not only removing 2 characters, but you are also removing a few detrimental mechanics.

If they were to fix Pokemon Trainer, I wouldn't even advocate his omission. Although, again, if Wolf and Ike are cut, and Pokemon Trainer returns, you are disappointing 2 fan-bases by removing 2 different play-styles, and two important characters from the franchise. So if Pokemon Trainer returns, even with his mechanics tweaked, he is going to be one of the more difficult to develop characters. I would prefer 2 pseudo-clones to one Pokemon Trainer, that might just be me though. My mentality has always been... if I want to play Pokemon Trainer, I can play Brawl.

 

[Mysteltainn]

She was an assist trophy in Brawl.

Ohh, that thing, forgot about her; thanks.

 

[Deleted member]

While more effort was made for that 4chan "leak", still not something to believe. There have been fake leaks of that effort level before.

 

[Oniric Spriter]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_Dozer

She was an assist trophy in Brawl.

I thought she was a WarioWare character lol

 

[Louie G.]

You mean the Palutena leak?
I just don't think that Palutena is a character worthy of a fake leak of that quality.
Mewtwo or Ridley, maybe.

 

[Thrillhouse-vh.]

> People not knowing Drill Dozer

This is why we can't have nice things like Jill Dozer as a playable character
