I think the Palutena leak is real, but there is a weird rigidness about her, in contrast to Mario's battle ready pose. I wouldn't be surprised if shes some type of assist trophy that someone leaked and then passed off as a leaked character just to troll the internet.
I really doubt assist trophies are going to have outlines, nor would they be this detailed.

I thought it was proven that the models had been improved through development? Mario's improved model showed up 2 days before this leak did, the faker would have needed that exact pose for it to work.

-He will revealed during a direct that will also announce a new Metal Gear Solid title for the Wii U."
Ya blew it. The way this is phrased is suggesting an exclusive, and that's just not habbening.

Just as a thought, if @ErenJager (and, by extension, his Palutena-summoning friend) is legit, Palutena being seen as an Assist Trophy doesn't necessarily rule out her being playable. I'm aware that this is a stretch, but I have seen people suggest that Assist Trophies could summon playable characters not participating in the ongoing match to emerge and attack for a little while. That might be what's happening here. We'll see soon enough.
I feel like the only reason this was suggested was because we're talking about Palutena. No one would second guess Ashley or Skull kid's status as AT.

I'm kind of tired of the whole support/disect of the Palutena leak at this point, it's not even that interesting to talk about anymore. At this time, I'm pretty much satified with the wait and see when it comes to that at this point.

I don't care.
I've given up at this point. I've given my reasons. But it's like talking to a brick wall.

TheMagicalKuja is right. The imporved Mario model was only revealed a couple days before the leaked images, and he wasn't in the correct pose. The leaker would not've had the resources to create a leak like the Palutena one.

Not only that, but the Mario model was really tiny in that pic. There's no way someone could have maximized that to the size the leak has it at without it looking blurry.

When it comes to this leak, I suppose it is worth noting that being as the game is still in development, there still may graphical polishing. That being said, Mario in the Palutena leak appears closer in design to the WiiU version, rather than some of what we've seen of him on the 3DS. But with the rest of the image being the way it is (no concrete base for the background and Palutena's model). I'm still inclined to lean towards it being true. Tough to call based on Mario though.

Look, and this is from someone who's attempted twice.
It's not worth it. I've tried, there's no getting through.
I don't know what so many see in it, personally I see as just some picture a guy made to stir up fans.
But, it's no use. Like I said above, "It's like talking to a wall"...

Well, I think it's fun. I mean, trying to debunk leaks is fun to me...

The leak is real, Palutena is in the game. :p
It's been weeks, and no one has debunked it completely.
I don't think we should really discuss it anymore, let's talk about one of the leaks on the OP.

Tried to get through all the pages, finally gave up and just skipped the last fifteen. Anything new of note, or just Palutena/E3 leak discussion?

Wish we could just make a game were we try to debunk the leak and others give it a score out of 10. Whoever has the best average wins.
But the mods would think it is to similar to this thread.

Your bush point is right, but the Mario thing.
Did you even look at there faces? Really, the hands are different to. The right hand isn't comparable at all. But the LEFT hand still looks different. You can tell. Mario's eye's are farther apart in the leak, and his hat is smoother. His buttons on his overalls are different. It is easier to debunk using Mario, but the attention was on the fact that Palutena's model is original, and we haven't seen anything like it on SSB4, we can't compare. But Mario is a different story. We know his model, and can compare him to his Smash 4 model on 3DS. This dude shouldn't have included Mario in this leak.
The differences in the mario's just prove that the game is being worked on imo. I think its different because They are making subtle tweaks to Mario's design. Either that or its a direct rip from brawl. or a modded brawl. someone should check that.

To be fair, the concerted effort to refute the leak was established day one and maybe a little bit of day two. No one was entirely interested in debunking it after that. So it isn't as though many have been attempting to find something erroneous about the leak for weeks.

Still, it isn't worth debunking especially after the biggest analysts tried..

If we get a 3DS Mario side picture we could do it.

Does anyone know who the guy is that leaked Palutena on 2chan? Because if that image is indeed correct, then it wouldn't hurt to pay attention to any other leaks that guy gives

Biggest analysts? What does that mean? Did professionals try and debunk the leak or something? :confused:

I suppose we could, Mario pictures don't come very often though. We might have to wait for Mario Kart to release or something.

I think those are anonymous.

Ouch, that and Zelda's leg going through her gown are the kind of graphical bugs I hate the most lol. Even though they're probably barely visible in-game.

Clipping shouldn't matter when the action is fast, imo.

Clipping in games like fallout/battlefield, yes that matters.
Clipping in Smash bros, no, it doesn't.


Personally of course.

Look at Dedede's cloak. His body is showing.
There's a few instances of this, but some of it just may not get corrected. That stuff is always bound to sneak its way in somehow.

Ya it is really fast and hard to see, but it is visible if you are looking for it. I only first knew about it because they paused while it happened during IGN's rewind theater. It made me cringe when I first noticed. lol

I think they'll fix that in time. The clipping on loose fabrics is always a lot of effort for a small part of the project. As long as it doesn't get stuck in a clip position it'll look fine. May be why we haven't got many videos though.

Well only 111 days until E3 so let's see how long these rumors last.

Part of me speculates that there'll be another Nintnedo Direct with a Smash newcomer in April so I'd look for Palutena or one of the DK crew then.
Sakurai has given us two newcomers over the past two months. I expect reveals to ramp up going into E3, especially if the game is planned for a Q3 release.

I'd say this screencap of the Mac trailer proves they still have some graphical issues to attend to
Were you watching the video in 360p? lol

Anyway, the final game will most likely have clipping issues, I think it is very hard if not impossible to completely fix this problem.
