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.
haha Mom was streaming netflix, my internet gets pretty slow when I have to compete with that. As for the clipping you're probably right, I imagine they will keep polishing it as much as they can though.

I know that most of the leaks are likely fake but it's always interesting to see users' predictions. Oh man, if only I knew which ones were real or not.

Anyway, not sure if this was posted or not but a fairly new leak from /v/.

Stage hazard Ridley and K. Rool would suck, although AT Chrom would kind of make for it. :p

Edit: Oh, is it the Cloud guy? Never mind then.

i was contribootin in this thread last night. Couple problems arose:

1. Cloud Strife

2. He said they were trying to get to 50 characters total, but throughout the thread he named 53 that were in for sure. Didn't monitor his lies well enough

Cloud instantly makes the leak unbelievable. He's never been on a Nintendo console (aside from cameos).
You do not need to be on a Nintendo console to be considered for Smash, that is an arbitrary rule discerned from the community. That is an inherent function of 3rd party characters as it is (association with Nintendo is irrelevant as it is not pertinent to their inclusion. They follow a different criteria). That being said, Cloud still makes the leak entirely unbelievable. Just a concurring opinion.

Hahaha, oh man, that Cloud one? Complete and utter BS. FFVII wasn't even on Nintendo consoles. What a joke.

Then again, if this dude isn't lying (he probably is) and Cloud is in the game. Holy ****, that would be a huge bomb.

That is true. I haven't really been keeping up with criteria for newcomers and I was only going by what I've seen the community post a lot. I'm sorry if my comment sounded a bit ignorant. I do think Cloud has next-to-no chance at all though. *shrug*

It is certainly fine, I don't doubt that the community stated such fallacious notions. It actually comes up a lot, even in regards to Snake, a character that has already been present in Smash.

Cloud not appearing on Nintendo consoles doesn't mean he couldn't be in, but it does mean he's far less iconic for Final Fantasy than somebody like a Black Mage as far as Nintendo is concerned. If Sakurai went completely insane and decided to include a FF rep for some ridiculous reason, he'd most likely look for a FF character who has some ties to Nintendo.

The very notion of a Final Fantasy rep is laughable, though, given Sakurai's statements on third-party characters.

Indeed, most people doubt Pac-Man, one of the most iconic third-party characters currently not in Smash; arguably one of the most notable video-game characters. A character that is owned by Namco, the co-development team. It is difficult to fathom that he would honestly select Cloud over someone much more iconic, someone who better fits the universe, and someone that is quite easy to include (acquiring the license is nowhere near as difficult).

That being said, I wouldn't stop laughing if Cloud was actually in Smash 4.

Again, 4chan is nothing but lying garbage to me. I severely doubt they would make a feature to use a game save from a completely different game. And why using a discontinued Pac-Man design? Pac-Man ain't no Samus or Link who go through multiple designs.

4chan may be a well known name on the Internet, but they're complete **** when it comes to getting leaks right.

To be fair, so is every other site discussing Smash, Smashboards included. 9 out of 10 "leaks" posted in this thread are laughably bad.

They were annoying during the prerelease of Pokémon X & Y. Countless "leaks" were posted on 4chan and not a single one was correct (there was one right-on leaker but he never touched 4chan). To be honest, in my opinion, GameFAQs seems to be a much more believable "leaker" than 4chan.

The Pokémon XY leaks came from 4chan, though. Perhaps you're referring solely to Smash Bros. leaks, if so I can agree then.

I'm assuming you mean the Greninja/Hawlucha/69 Pokémon leak right? Because the main leak was given to Pokebeach IIRC.

Either way, 4chan is not the place to put much belief in as 99.99% of the time it's utter crap, sometime they do get something but it's oftentimes a rarity.

That's because a store in Canada decided to break the street date and sold a lot of copies of Pokémon X & Y before they were supposed to.

tl;dr The Canadian store leaked Pokémon X & Y, not 4chan.

I've yet to see any site be a believable leaker for Smash. Most "leaks" posted on any site make ridiculously obvious predictions or simply trade on recent/upcoming announcements to generate interest, including almost all of the "leaks" in this thread. Look at all of the "Diddy and/or Dixie will/will not be revealed" 'leaks' in the run-up to the Direct.

It's all in good fun, and I enjoy tearing apart a ridiculous leak just as much as the next guy, but every remotely Smash-related site is filled with garbage leaks right now. Smashboards is just as bad as 4chan at the moment. This thread is filled with nonsense.

The idea of Geno being in as just a trophy doesn't click for me. If Geno ever shows up in Smash (which I highly doubt, unfortunately), I can't imagine that he wouldn't be character.
Having Ridley sit out from being a boss to let other villains have a chance sounds ridiculous. He's THE most popular Nintendo villain that isn't already playable.
Not even going to comment about Cloud or the Sora assist.

I'm pretty sure there are more fans for Mew Two, another villain.

What if Sakurai tells us Ridley is in and he gives us his infant form?



His final smash would be metamorphosis to adult Ridley that we love.

Sakurai would be a legendary troll.

Well, if you consider him a villain. He's a villain in the first movie (which IS what he's best known for I suppose), good in the Genesect movie, and just kinda there's no reason to believe he's a villain in the games, really.

That one in the Genesect movie was an unexplained other female Mewtwo. Way to bait continuity and then defile it anime writers. But then what else is new?

It literally sounds like the guy who was having too much fun on gamefaqs yesterday. He also reminds me of Mr.Predictions and sounds like he's getting exactly what he wants, attention. Once gamefaqs deemed him as an obvious fake he probably moved on to 4chan.. If this was real it would be kind of cool though.

As much as I would love for Cloud to be in the game I really think his inclusion makes the leak very unbelievable.
