SSB4 Rumours and Leaks

[ShichibukaiJimbe]

Remember when X and Y leaked and people were like

Yeah, can't look too deep.

This. Sometimes leaks are fake, but sometimes people get so desperate to disagree with them, for not being what they wanted, that they see things where there's none. It was the same thing with greninja, the gen V starters and the brawl roster.

 

[Muster]

Someone posted two separate threads specifically asking for Wii fit Trainer. Specifically the female as well. You're free to dig through the thread to find it.

First thing's first, they were both joke threads. Female wft one had her using the thighmaster as her final smash, which was a joke made by the op.

Second one wasn't even the trainer, it was a character who started out overweight and got faster as the match went on.

and also, hindsight is 20/20, remember that.

 

[andimidna]

That's like saying: Hey, let's add a recurrent character before the protagonist.

You guys probably won't believe me but when I was a preteenager back in the Brawl days I wanted/imagined that Villager would be the one playable and it bugged me he wan't in Brawl, I didn't even considered Tom Nook.

I put "Animal Crosser" on a few of my rosters. And Little Mac, "Rosalina and Lumas", and Megaman on all of them.
I had only guessed a Wii Fit stage, but looking back, the trainer makes complete sense. I wish I'd thought if it.
Regardless, I agree it is quite possible.

 

[lightdasher]

If I said I wanted a WFT before the reveal you wouldn't believe me.

So the DK event was in both locations.

But why would they even have playable Smash Bros demos in this stage of development, and why would they just let random joes play it.

See, my question is "Why would NIntendo have something as crowd-drawing as a Smash Bros demo and not advertise it?"

 

[BluePikmin11]

No one truly thought of the Wii Fit Trainer, Smashboards had more than a year to think of possible candidates for threads, yet none of us in general thought of Wii Fit Trainer before her reveal at E3.

 

[Midge]

That's actually a very plausible theory.

Didn't I say something like this 20 pages ago and it was just ignored? Anyways this is the theory I'm banking on. Not so much that the order of reveal is correct, more of the Salromano assumption part. What was the order of the Newcomers in the OP or this leak anyways?

 

[Cap'nChreest]

So are we still trying to confirm the Eren Jaeger leak? The one that said he played it in Canada? Well I still don't buy it. Someone is going to have to bring more evidence for this leak to convince me. Sure there may have been a DK event but why would they let smash have a playable demo there?

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

No clue if anyone ever brought this up but....

Fake?

Those have ben confirmed fake earlier

Beside you should have compared to macs damage percentage earlier

 

[PSIguy89]

OK as far as those "demos" go, couldn't someone just call a Nintendo hotline and ask about what was at those events? I mean wouldn't that be able to confirm if a demo of smash existed?

 

[Rockaphin]

Villager or "Animal Crosser" makes WAAAYY more sense to be playable than Tom Nook. I love Animal Crossing and I never really considered Tom Nook to become a playable character. Maybe for a second rep in future titles, but I see him being a great candidate as an Assist Trophy.

 

[Banjodorf]

SWF is not the only place for speculation, and just because you can't find requests for something doesn't mean they don't exist.

But seriously, does anyone have a link to the "ChaosZero" leak? It's been bothering me and I need to take a look at it again, and can't find it.

 

[Deleted member]

People are still arguing about the Little Pac-Mii thing?

I guess the fact that a notorious fighting game leaker (Caw Evolution) vouches for Sal Romano legitimately receiving an e-mail a week prior to E3 from an anonymous source that he also claims is credible flew over too many heads.

Let's face it.
Until we get Mii or Pac-Man (or their deconfirmation). This will never die.

 

[BKupa666]

Fixed.

 

[BluePikmin11]

It's never going to die, I still believe the Leaky 3 completely, all I can do regarding is wait till E3.

 

[Banjodorf]

Look, my thoughts on the "Leaky 3" (god I hate that term.) is that as long as we get more of the widely-speculated and widely popular newcomers, I'm fine with it.

That said, Mii's are still boring as ****. We already have Villager, and potentially Robin for FAR more interesting generic avatars.

But Pac Man is cool I guess, so that's exciting.

 

[MasterofMonster]

I Believe the... not a fan of the name, so I'll call it the E3 Leak. But I've seen enough here to know there's no Point in talking about it, so I will leave it at that.

So, no neat rumor/leaks lately that didn't get debunked the second it was shown?

 

[Hinata]

Hehe. Leaky 3... LeakE 3. Clever. I still believe it, whether it was meant to be a leak or truly just unlikely predictions. Either way, that guy knows what he's talking about.

 

[TheTuninator]

First thing's first, they were both joke threads. Female wft one had her using the thighmaster as her final smash, which was a joke made by the op.

I'll say it again: if we dismiss every character request thread with a Landmaster final smash joke as a joke thread, we'll wipe out about 75% of the threads on the board.

The existence of somebody discussing WFT in Smash prior to E3 does absolutely nothing to discredit the E3 rumor. It simply discredits the absurd claim that literally nobody ever thought of the possibility of WFT in Smash before E3. We'd be better off if everybody would stop claiming with absolute certainty that WFT was 100% impossible to guess.

 

[Deleted member]

"Leaky 3" was a ******** name when it was first uttered, it's still ******** now.

Little Pac-Mii. E3 Leak. Whatever. Just stop using that ****ing ridiculous name.

Hehe. Leaky 3... LeakE 3. Clever. I still believe it, whether it was meant to be a leak or truly just unlikely predictions. Either way, that guy knows what he's talking about.

....wow. It became a little less ********.

LeakE3 is a much better way to use it, thank you.

 

[Substitution]

Well, maybe some of us prefer the air.
You don't know that.

 

[BluePikmin11]

There we have our new name, now it doesn't sound as someone leaking on the toilet:
LeakEy3.
Not as memorable though.

 

[Cap'nChreest]

Pac-man and Mii don't end up being in the game "plans change "

 

[Miles Pierre]

If the Sal leak is fake I'll eat crow and change my avatar to whatever the unreasonably skeptical choose. I find it hilarious that a few posters kept saying that Little Mac couldn't have been planned to show at E3 because the graphics on the stage were completely different for his reveal. (When asked how they come upon this insider information usually the argument broke down into "Well it just makes sense for me to completely and arbitrarily assume that I know exactly what goes on with the game's development)

Come to find out, when Little Mac isn't on the stage generic text and a generic logo show (or like other people say perhaps the game gives the player the ability to choose between the two though this is probably less likely) -- as seen with the Diddy Kong update. I think the Diddy update only lends even more credence to the likelihood of Sal telling the truth and the leak being legitimate. Yes, at the end of the day it could be fake but so far there is absolutely nothing that says otherwise.

 

[Gaxel]

If most of the leaks are true by saying that Chrom, Ridley and K Rool are in the game...

I will buy the 3DS copy, three Wii U copies and main all of them.

 

[Chimera]

First thing's first, they were both joke threads. Female wft one had her using the thighmaster as her final smash, which was a joke made by the op.

What's your point? I never said they were accurate representations of the final design. My point was that there were threads asking for Wii fit trainer, or saying Wii fit trainer should be in Smash. The point isn't to say that she was a heavily requested character, but that some people thought of a possibility of her in Smash. This means it wasn't impossible to guess her or predict her, or want her in Smash.

 

[BluePikmin11]

Um, have you considered when Little Mac joins the battle, the logo and signs changed into Punch-Out based icons.
Don't really think it helps the leak really. The recent screen shots of him I think were made a month before Diddy's reveal.

 

[GreenReaperGod]

Woah guys! I think Cap'nChreest knows something! Look at the date the message was posted!

Anyway, it's not hard to make leaks like these

Other than the part that says edited six minutes ago.

 

[Hinata]

Perhaps. I've heard people theorizing that you can choose what "skin" the stage has. It could be that Little Mac affects the stage, it could be you can choose if you want it to look like the Smash or Punch-Out!! version, or, an extreme long shot but a theory still possible nonetheless, they're two separate stages.

And i never said that it discredited your statement. I wanted to clarify that they were both joke threads, and that one didn't even specify the wii fit trainer. If you don't tell the complete truth, then you might as well lie.

Also: it's ironic how you go to lengths to prove that somebody suggested wft when people say nobody did, but then you say everybody expected an ac rep.

 

[GreenReaperGod]

It was just an example that I created in like 2 minutes.

 

[Gaxel]

Ridley, I feel your pain p.p

I want Kraid as a stage hazard again tbh...

I felt god-like on the melee stage when Kraid was slashing at the platform.

You must be the wielder of the Monado..

 

[Morbi]

I didn't really consider him to be a stage hazard to be honest, but I certainly wouldn't mind him to return in a similar fashion.

Yes, at the end of the day it could be fake but so far there is absolutely nothing that says otherwise.

Not to say I don't agree with you entirely, but I'll play devil's advocate for a moment:

"That picture with Diddy was obviously taken way before E3, where Little Mac was still never planned to be shown. Start thinking critically, dude."

Like I said, this is never going to end.
