That's a lot of Swordsmen. :/ Only thing I don't like about the Newcomers this time are that Villager, WFT, MegaMan, Rosalina and Little Mac are all... human. (yes, one is kinda a robot, one is a space princess, etc etc) Characters like Ridley and Duck Hunt Dog are needed to keep the character's apperances varied!
Don't forget K. Rool and Dixie! Both are likely character.

Just saw this advertisement, thought it was fitting.

The leaks are an analogy for leaks. I'm not sure what the baby is an analogy for, I may have to do more soul searching for that.
Baby is an analogy for crybabies when they get butthurt after finding out some of the horrible leaks are true.

Hope you all enjoy Super Smash Brothers for Wii U and 3DS. If I do not simply throw away my account, which has a high chance, I will post more assists...

Translated to the english names.

Huh. I kinda like this roster alot.

I can't wait for it to get debunked and then get let down!

>new monolith X trailer follows Shulk instead of the black haired guy and he is confirmed for Smash Bros afterwards.
>The game takes place a century after Xenoblade on the new world.
>Youkai Watch is being localized under the title Spirit Switch along with Tomodachi Collection.
>Both are set for holidays 2014.
>Wario Land: Over-abroad is announced for 3DS and set for 2015.
>Looks like a sequel to Shake-it with the same artstyle.
>New Pokemon event for Volcanion this May 22.
>It was a 3DS focused direct.
He apparently works for the ESRB.

He had my attention on the Nintendo Direct Monday part but completely killed that interest instantly the second he said what's going to be shown at the Nintendo Direct.
Wait, he said "Monday". As in, this Monday?

> Somehow nows about Nintendo Directs.
Sounds fishy to me...

Yes, this Monday. But I've yet to see someone successfully leak when a Nintendo Direct will happen and what it will show, which makes it fake in my book.

Holy ****. He's playing with feelings here.
The only reason why I'd give this leak some attention is that it will be debunked in less than 24 hours (with the announcement of the Direct appearing or not). So, it's either real or made by a giant asshole who knows that even the smartest dudes will at least lend their ears.
Too good to be true though. I don't know what to think.

Yeah, I'm going to have to call fake on that one.
-Lack of notice for the Direct ahead of time
-Even if we assume GF breaks their "one event a year" deal (which doesn't make sense this time around as there's no special circumstances for it nor is there an announced event for it), there's no way they'd skip over Hoopa for Volcanion and leave a glaring space in the Pokedex.

Wouldn't a Direct for tomorrow be announced by now anyway?
Probably.
To be fair, I'd say give it a few more hours.
But if anything, most worldwide Nintendo Directs are bi-monthly.
In our case, the best time for one would be in April.
So, for the time being, consider it fake.

Not sure what I Think about Shulk in Smash (Another human!), but a Direct is wonderful! But, I guess it needs to be announced any minute now? :/

sounds legit but I don't think we will get a newcomer this month. and a direct for tomorrow would've been announced already.
Well, to be fair the last Direct was really late. If in, say, 4 hours is still not announced, we can be safe that it's fake.
Still surprises me that someone would make a "leak" which can be debunked in a matter of hours though, why bother?

As much as I'd like Paper Mario, we already have nine-ish Mario series characters (counting spin-offs).

A running theme I've noticed in most of these leaks is that many of the newcomers listed in them, barring the obligatory Pac-Man - seriously, he's in so many rosters that if it turns out he isn't actually in the final product I'm going to laugh, hard - are human characters, usually swordsmen, from more "realistic" series (Xenoblade's Shulk, Murasame Castle's Takamaru, Golden Sun's Isaac, FE:Awakening's Chrom, et al.) We need more species/body type diversity.

No kidding! It's missing Krystal, and has a character who will probably never be playable.
The lack of anything but human newcomers from the Nintendo front is disgusting. In fact, I'm already beginning to lose my patience with the already confirmed newcomers. Needs more dragons and crocodiles if you ask me.
