The Lucario-Jiggles-Ness "leak" points to an AC character?

[Peter_Parker]

So. After looking more at the pictures leaking Lucario and Jigglypuff, and Ness, I noticed there was a line dividing the power-up detail from the characters...

After the Sticker Power-Up update, some thought that there might be an AC character in Brawl due to the then-mysterious line:

But some said it wasn't anything and to not speculate about it because the Kirby picture didn't have that line:

But now think about this:

The sticker showing Lucario and Jigglypuff was a Pokemon sticker.
The sticker showing Ness was a Earthbound sticker.
The sticker showing Sonic was a Sonic sticker.
The sticker showing Kirby, MK, and D3 was a Kirby & the Amazing Mirror sticker.

I know that not all stickers are assigned to certain characters, and there is a definite possibility that we could see power-ups for certain characters represented by a sticker from a different series, but we have yet to see that, and there are 4 examples, which is much better than 1, and yes I know, there are thousands of stickers, but... maybe.

So... What could the Katrina sticker with the line mean?
An Animal Crossing character?
What do you guys think? Would you want an AC character in?
And why wasn't there a line on the Kirby Cell-phone pic? To put out a decoy?

It's merely speculation, and quite frankly I don't even want an AC character in, but what do you think?

Also, I'd like to shout out Invincible Agent b/c I took his photos from his 5-character theory thread. Sorry for doing that man, but if it's any consolation, I found inspiration for this thread in your thread.

Maybe some stickers (such as animal crossing) can go on all characters?

+13 Magic to an AC character wouldn't make much sense...
I'm guessing it's used for Zelda & Ganondorf.

There is also a Nintendogs sticker. Nintendog confirmed for brawl!!!11111!!!111[shift+1]!!1

Can someone who actually comprehends what I'm pointing out here chew this fat with me?

We're just going to have to wait and see.

I can't believe purin is back. She hasn't been in the anime for a long time.

I think the answer might be pretty simple.

The one picture showing the heads of Kirby, Meta Knight and Dedede (with no line) is taken from where you are actually placing the stickers underside of a trophy base. While the other pictures showing the heads of Pikachu, Pokemon Trainer, Ness, Sonic and so on are taken from what appears to be a sticker album (where the line is actually showing).

Maybe the thing on the 'Katrina' pic is saying something along the lines of "there is no character" etc. I think that there isn't a line on the Phone one because that screen could have been taken a while ago compared to the others?

 

[Super Drybones]

pay attention to the stickers on the trophy
they aren't all kirby but they are on his stand

 

[HarryTheChin]

Needs moar Claus and Mewtwo =D

 

[peachy!]

I think Sakurai just wanted to trick us when the Sonic music update mentiones Knuckles. If you can see, the sticker selected shows all the playable characters of each series. The Sonic sticker shows only the sprite of Sonic and nobody else.

I would absolutely love for an Animal Crossing character to be playable (preferably Tom Nook), but I dunno if this belies anything of the sort. Only time will tell.

If you watch the video that confirmed the 3 characters, 4:20 http://youtube.com/watch?v=pfb2l-iYlRo, you will see that the other stickers they show (less than a second at the start and right at the end) dont have any writing at all in that part.

 

[mentosman8]

I definitely get what you're saying... That lettering only appears on stickers that have character limitations(you can see on the site one that doesn't limit the character, and has no text there), so it means something, probably used by. However, I don't see an AC character using magic, which the Katrina sticker powers, so I think it might be limited to someone not of the franchise.

It's possible it says something like "Unlock character"

 

[reu_1303]

well if what you say is true then who is that next to ness? they would be playable too!

 

[jay~B]

The two images you are comparing are completely different situations,

Is when you are picking out your stickers depending on their effect

Is after you put the stickers on

Well, nice of you to point out. But we know that not all stickers are assigned to certain characters.

But those that are, so far, that we've seen, are stickers representing a certain series, with the character-specific power-ups are for characters of that same series.

There is no doubt in my mind that there is an Animal Crossing playable character in Brawl.

However, I don't think the Katrina sticker applies to them. It specifically works for Magic Attack. Could Zelda use it? Yes. Could Ike use it? Yes. A villager? Not so much.

Can you people not wait until it comes out in Japan? These theories are getting more and more ridiculous. Just wait a few more days **** it!

Who knows, Katrina might be the AC character... Or maybe someone gets Capt. Falconized.

Plus, what's Sakurai's definition of MAGIC? Is Mario's fireball technically magic?

Looks like someone doesn't like fun, eh guys?

It's not like I'm blindfolded and just pointing at things on the DOJO. It's a simple speculation.
Not like I'm saying the day changes in Battlefield and the seasons change on Yoshi's Island, so Father Time and Mother Nature are playable!

 

[darkhamsterlord]

It's simple. The kirby stickers don't have a line because those stickers are on a Trophy Base, rather than in the album.

I think this definately points to an AC character.

 

[KokiriKory]

I know what you're saying, man, and I completely agree. I had the same exact thought when I went back and saw that sticker

I think an Animal Crossing character is pretty much set in stone. We just need the definitive proof now.

 

[The Noob Legend]

I found something quite strange about this actually.

Look at this.

There is no 'Ike' head...
Does this mean there are more reps for the FE series?
Either that or the heads weren't added to the sticker book until afterwards.

Now look at the picture of Katrina

Ok, the letter at the far down left is a U shape?
This could say 'Unlock Character'
or 'Unavailable'?

Also btw, you are forgetting there are a total of THREE AC stickers shown.
Which could point to a bigger probability.

ANDDDDDDD
In the Katrina photo, does that say Animal Crossing: WW as in Wild World or Wii?

Well, again, there doesn't need to be a specified character for a sticker, meaning it could be placed on all characters trophies. However, the line in that photo could point to that specific sticker being a character-specific sticker.

I'm not really 'about' the space theories saying since there is room for another head, it must mean there are enough characters to fill that space, but who knows.

Personally, I don't think that Sakurai and the team will downgrade FE to just one character.

 

[joeysmash]

Its hiding something though... why else would they zoom in on it?
