Hi,

I was just curious if the possibility of the leaker confusing Ike and chrom has been discussed? I hope that isn't the case, but since he didn't exactly know specific names and maybe because of Ike's new design, is it possible?

If @ ChunkyBeef ChunkyBeef STILL denies this now... we've got a serious case of denial
Nah, dude, see, the guy never mentioned that Pac-Man is based off of his Pac-Man World form and that he turns into Retro Pac-Man. Not to mention, he never mentions Game & Watch coming back, so there's definitely something wrong here. Plus, anyone could have guessed Pac-Man, why's anyone surprised here? Plus, he never mentions you can't use Mii Fighter online, either. Just, enormous holes in the leak, guys. The Gematsu Leak is a huge farce and you guys are totally buying into it. Seriously, why do you guys cling to it? Wake up, sheeple.

Just foolin'. I'm honestly more upset about not being able to see the reveal trailer than me potentially being wrong. The more I hear about Pac-Man the more interested I am to see him in action. Pretty hype.

Great day to be a Smash fan.

I like Mii. I like Pac-Man. And I like this leak.

But damn, I'm gonna miss Lucas.

It is very doubtful the leak is false now.

Lets just hope for more characters besides the ones listed.

IMO this leak + ridley/dk newcomer/mewtwo(to appease fans, I am baised for k rool <3) = a pretty good roster in my eyes.

Pack it up boys, we done here.
The leak is legit, but we don't know what parts are accurate. Palutena being revealed doesn't mean much. He couldn't name Greninja on the day of, despite having up-to-date info.

And I still highly doubt a DK newcomer won't be in. Lack of Isaac also disappoints, maybe post-release DLC?

Anyone have a theory?

I'd like to note that this doesn't prove all 3 pieces of the leak right, just one piece.

The rest still has to happen.

I'm calling it "beyond likely real", but yeah.

It will work with persistence, it worked for me after I got the 502 error.

There are certain people that I would very much like to call out on Pac-Man... but I'm just gonna be the bigger person.

Honestly, i can accept Kid Icarus having a 2nd character even with many franchises are still not represented or some already represented franchises dont have enough representation. I can accept Wii series taking 4 spots in the game. I can accept that my favorite characters are not going to be in Smash. I can accept 3 blue-haired lords. I can even accept Chorus Man.

But Pac-Man being revealed like this, through the information of a twitter-page of anyone that is assisting at a roundtable is just...
Disapointing, horrible... This ruined the E3. I was really happy to see fresh things like Hyrule Warriors, Splatoon, The new Zelda of Wii U, those Kirby and Yoshi games, Bayonneta 2, Xenoblade Wii U.

Amiibo... everything was perfect...

Why do they have to ruin all like this? A character revealed through a Twitter. Ghost!

He was supposed to be replaced by Lucas in Melee, but due to Mother 3 not being out, Lucas was delayed until Brawl and Ness was safe.
I know that, but he wasnt cut, so they shouldnt have even been considering cutting him because hes been in the game since Smash 64

Remember, there's 3 separate leaks. Only the first one is confirmed. We need DLC to actually confirm the 3rd leak. For the 2nd, Shulk, Chorus Men/Marshall, and Chrom have to show up.

I know we want to think everything is blatantly confirmed, but just some of it is. Let's wait to see. Regardless of how likely it is(which is severely) to be real, we can't say all the leaks are confirmed till it actually happens.

I think its because they knew Pac-Man wouldn't bring as much hype as Mega Man or Sonic.

The press are liveblogging and revealing info that way.

It does suck that we have no idea when Pac-Man and Game&Watch will hit the site, if at all for who knows how long.

For me, at least

He adds more hype than Palutena or Mii

He can summon DIG-DUG AND GALAGA SHIP!

And he has his own stage!

Gematsu leak's most likely confirmed by this. I'm a bit dubious that the roster is still up in the air with 3 months to go, but even if the source isn't right about that, he's gotten enough characters correct to be considered credible.

I don't necessarily expect Chrom or Chorus Men before the end of E3, as the source typically isn't spot-on with the timing, but they seem very likely to appear on the final roster.

Can't believe that they showed the trailer behind closed doors instead of at the end of the tournament.

Pac-Man is in... Mii is in... So that means Chrom will be in the game. Great, one more blue-haired sword user FE rep.
