So I did some digging on the Activision Rumor/leak(?) I mentioned yesterday. I have learned more of its origins. So I figured I'd share

Be warned as it could very well be true and spoil some future stuff

Spoiler

The rumor is currently being backed by Admins in Papa Genos discord apparently who have actual contacts. Which is very true, as Vrplant and other information have leaked from his discord prior. So as of right now apparently its being kept on the low, but I'd bet if this is real, those documents will surface or more people will back crash in Smash.

I missed that. What was the rumor?

Eddie Van Halen died.


Man...

May you jump into heaven, Eddie.

New Treehouse presentation coming tommorow!​

HI STEVE!

 

[Zinith]

May you jump into heaven, Eddie.

I feel like he'd be--

ahem

running with the devil

Probably not the most appropriate joke to make when the dude just died. Maybe I'm just being too sensitive, I dunno.

I really love the tournament arc in battle network 3 and how it builds up over the course of the first half of the games plot.

the part I dislike is the fight with Kingman. This fight is obnoxious.

If I do not drink, I thirst.

 

[Z25]

Also all the Zelda stuff makes me wonder if we could get a Zelda character as DLC. I hope so, BOTW has so many great picks now.

That is typically how hydration works, yes.

Spoiler

Supposedly an Activision document has been leaked to insiders and it dictates a five year plan for Crash. It's being said to be from last year and made mention of the mobile game and crash 4. It hasn't been publicly leaked but a few circles have said they know of trustworthy sources who have seen the document and it seems real. The reason its being kept hush hush is that Crash in Smash is on the doc and it says the plan was for 2021. Considering the Admins at Geno's discord do get real information, there is a decent chance this is real imo.Gives me big Incenroar leak vibes.

How does an Enderman drink?

 

[Hat N' Clogs]

Endermen don't drink. They absorb.

Zelda...new rep...

Spoiler: Nintendo and Sakurai right now

 

[Aurane]

I solved my previous concern of thirst by having a drink.

Let this be a lesson for all.

Interesting.

I assume this is for the so-called Cresh Bendycute 5 year plan?

Yes exactly that.

I'm fairly certain Eddie himself would be okay with it

That shouldn’t be too hard since Steve was crafted to troll.

Please! I'll do anything! I have no shame!

Crash in Smash. That's uh... not really surprising tbh. Though that would make it our 3rd non Japanese company character, and the only one that isn't owned by Microsoft.

I'd be down though.

You've all heard of famous stories from days long gone.... the fall of Pompeii, Columbus reaching America, the Ancient Egyptians and Moses... etc. But...

Interesting how the Microsoft Third Party characters are also the only ones who didn't leak. Well... and Joker. But that was probably because of increased Game Awards security. But Hero and Terry both leaked. Min Min and Byleth didn't though because they were 100% internal Nintendo. And now Crash just adds to that. If it's true that is.

 

[ZephyrZ]

I should remind people that this Crash in Smash thing is all just rumors with nothing substantial backing them. It coild be real but take it with a huge grain of salt.

Rumors? It's a leaked internal document from trusted sources.

 

[TheMightyP]

My Uncle who works at Nintendo just called me.


It's Coco Bandicoot, not Crash

 

[Wario Bros.]

Crash and Geno are probably going to be the only characters in my wishlist to join the fray. But I am cool with that

 

[Mamboo07]

If Bandana Dee doesn't get in, I'm going to ride at dawn.

Could still be faked. Remember the Grinch leak and the chaos that caused?

It's unlikely sure, but I still have my doubts. Not gonna trust it 100% until we get something concrete from Nintendo.

 

[DerpingPikachu]

There’s a new leak?

 

[Deleted member]

If any of my most wanteds got in I would be over the moon tbh. regardless of who it is it would be hilarious to see Twitter implode on itself trying to figure out where the hell the character comes from lol, unless it's an MTG character I guess.

 

[TheMightyP]

Wow, the Grinch leak really did burn everyone out huh.

Also, if these rumors are true, can we say that the CacoMallow rumor is 100% dead?

Because it's been like 4(?) Characters now, and no sign of Doom Slayer nor Geno, let alone the costumes

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Eh. The Grinch Leak didn't have a trusted source who's gotten stuff right before hand behind it. Just saying.

Not my point. My point is just because there's a lot of evidence for a leak doesn't necessarily means it's true or correct. You could very easily have a bunch of high rep people backing something and have some very official looking documents, images, etc, only for it to turn out to be just a ruse. Is it unlikely? Yes. But it is still possible, hence why taking leaks with a grain of salt is the better option, even when there is piles and mountains of evidence supporting it. Keep your expectations low, yknow? If it happens it happens.

 

[Deleted member]

Yes, and it is on the boat.

And who are these "trusted sources" exactly?

I don't remember. Ask Z25 . He knows.
