for sharing and spreading the Isaac love ! Maybe you'll want to try the games out someday ? 
It seems likely that we'll be getting a Smash Direct this week if this is true: it's just over a month before release (the normal window for game-specific Directs), the Smash bundle is releasing Friday, and waiting much longer would only serve to raise the chance of further leaks as well as distract from the new Pokemon games in particular. I've got no idea about the second Direct: it seems a little soon for another general Direct, but I also can't think of any other holiday releases that might warrant one, and they did do general ones that month from 2012 to 2015.
Yea that's too blurry so I'm gonna have to say it's fake. And his nose is too big.
I love this idea for cg...
No problem! I gotta give credit where it's due, and Isaac has some serious moveset chops. Consider me hyped.That's great, thank you
I wish they would rerelease Mario RPG here in Europe so I can give it a try.
Just the first one, though. I'm not too into the series--not through any fault of its own! Random encounters just aren't my thing. I do remember loving the combat, though. And the overworld puzzles. I can see why so many people love it.
At this point, anything can happen now. There's still a ton of stuff to talk about in Smash that we don't know about yet. Like Single player mode, Online, Trophies, Games, Gallery, etc. Not to mention the changes for each character, how the last 7 work, and much much more. They could even do a 100 Fact-Extravaganza if they wanted.
If that happen to be true they'll probably reveal the full roster in this one and only direct.
Beat me to it, haha. Saw this as well and it's actually not a bad theory. Some things that support this idea are:They were apparently taken the day before the Chad leak went live. There's actually a huge amount of speculation going around that MarioTehPlumber was the one behind the leak.

Quick summary of the current ideas.
That's the idea. The evidence seems to be piling up from multiple sources that we have a very good chance of getting a Direct that reveals a large portion of the roster on Thursday.
We can only hope so. I believe we'll get a direct next week marking the month away from release.

The only thing that makes me question if he really was Chadondorf is that the 4chan post mentioned 3 cut characters and several bosses. Also that he mentioned that we should give Nintendo more credit for making the greatest Smash ever.
It just seems like a strange marketing decision to release a bundle and expect people to buy it without revealing large portions of the product they're buying. No full roster. No story mode details. It seems like they would almost have to have a Direct within the next two days, otherwise... they're just asking people to purchase a product on faith.
It sounds more like he got a hold of the screen shots of the snapchat video from someone and then decided to spread the pics around the anniversary of the ESRB leak. I really doubt that to be honest, but weirder things have happened.
MarioTehPlumber, now that's a name that I haven't heard from in quite sometime. If I remember right he had some controversy surrounding him some time ago.

Well, there's no evidence of him having any artistic ability at all and I sincerely doubt he's the mastermind, nor do I think there is a mastermind. It's too elaborate. I'm not even very sure he actually took the snapchat pictures. It was probably something posted in a discord that he saved. If he did take the snapchat pictures, it makes it maybe slightly more likely it's fake? I think the only thing possible at that point once you had the pictures is trying to photoshop out and in specific characters. And that's a task that is much harder than it sounds because it would have to have the same weird pixelation to it and he would have to do it twice. Both in different qualities.
Yeah, I'm not sure but it is something else that makes it seem like a coincidence. I suppose the poster could just be adding extra random things, but I don't know what to think about that. This entire story just gets more layered and weird as time goes on.
We're not sure. It's possible, but no one knows right now. It's also possible that he's not the snapchat friend, but is part of a discord of the person who took the snapchat images is also in. This is somewhat more likely considering that I get the feeling that MTP doesn't actually have any relations to anyone that was actually involved in making the materials, taking the snapchat or taking a picture of the snapchat. Think about it. If you were the person taking the snapchat or a friend of the person taking the snapchat, it would be pretty malicious to put someone in jeopardy while also potentially knowing that person by leaking it everywhere and to everybody. The most someone might do is tell small pockets of people once it propagates out from being the people who simply saw the snapchat video. Loose lips sink ships though. Even if just one person let that information go, it's going to eventually land in the hands of someone who doesn't care about you, doesn't care about the fragility of the situation and doesn't care of the repercussions it causes.
Be brave proud warrior the battle's not over yet. Next direct is probably our last and decisive battle, not the time to give in to doubt.

Let's not jump to conclusions but if true this guy is the worst.

It's Isaac using his growth psynergy to cast vines.
Isaac commonly uses Earth psynergy in the games which also includes creating vines, brambles and even bamboo. So it's really not surprising that he could be casting Growth or other common things from the games under his feet. There's further evidence that Growth might be an item in the game that was leaked by Nintendo themselves in the recent Bus Tour video Wendy's is sponsoring.
Yeah, for sure. Like I said, there's absolutely no concrete evidence here and I'm not saying anyone is guilty of anything by any stretch of the imagination. Ultimately it's all not going to matter soon because we're knocking on the next and probably final Smash Direct's door. So all of this theory crafting is fluff. At this point, you believe it's real, you believe it's fake or you're just waiting for this damned roster drop to get here already.
A week ago I would have agreed with being more cautious but that sprout item on top of everything else has absolutely tipped me over the edge. I don't care what all these unsubstantiated "insiders" are claiming, the evidence in front of my eyes tells me there's a really good chance that Isaac is in. I guess we'll find out for sure this week or next.
There seems to be a growing consensus that a Smash Direct is coming later this week, possibly announced within the next 24 hours. Beyond that, no real news other than continued confusion over the validity of the Grinch leak.Morning! Any news in the last 8 hours?
The only way it would make sense is if the person who took the image contacted MTP directly on discord through a private chat. (and then he didn't discuss it in his discord publicly)
Yep, pretty much everything you said is why we believe Isaac still has a great chance even if the leak turns out to be fake. Only time will tell and right now it seems pointless to put any stock into any insider right now.
