The Direct script leak seems suspect.

Everything seems plausible (except maybe Joker having, like, 9 Personas) until the Crono bit, where it starts falling apart.

The script mentions Mii Fighter costumes, but nothing is said of them at all (it just says "you can buy Mii Fighter costumes for €0.75" but not who they are.)

Why does Crono have that "partner" mechanic that's tied to the character select screen? That seems overcomplicated, not to mention that it could make fighting him online a pain if you can't see what Partners they pick.
My guess for the Mii Fighters is that like the Assist trophies, it only shows their names and they aren't said.

Haven't read it, but one of the issues is that it just seems to be the same ****ty script that gets uploaded all the time. I could imagine Joker having different Persona, but having the other PT members seems a stretch. Crono would be believable if they just said the partner mechanic can be switched but the moveset would end up becoming unecessarily complicated. As for the Mii costume, they are just relaying info already known.

Aren't Direct scripts always bogus? For a script to get out it has to be someone from DEEP within the company which seems unlikely at best.
In this case it's supposedly a subtitle transcript from the French version of the Direct.

This part sounds juuuust crazy, and Sakurai, enough to be true though...

Joker is definitely not going to have more team members. It hasn't happened for Cloud, it hasn't happened for Shulk, it hasn't happened for any FE character outside of Robin's Chrombo, and by golly, it probably won't happen with Joker and/or Chrono either.

Hell the notion of him getting any persona that isn't purely Arsene is doubtful.

Starting to get a bit of an idea block for my whole SmashBoards poster. Someone quick, ideas stat.
Am I in?
If not, may you please add me as Alphonse in human form?

That would be easier to catch, only the French translator, Nintendo of France execs and the person reading the script would know about it.

The idea I gleamed from the ****ty google translate is that Joker can use the Personas of all the other team members to alter his Neutral, Side and Down Specials, he does this in a similar way to how Inkling charges ink (Press B while Shielding, then make a selection from the wheel like Shulk's Monado arts).

Kirby can also do this (Neutral Special only, natch).

Of course, considering that Sakurai specifically pointed out that Kirby's a pain to develop for, would they really let Joker have so many Persona, making more work to go into Kirby?

Also, Morgana and Jack Frost are (supposedly) Assist Trophies.

So how likely do you think the direct is now?
It's happening this month, and that's literally all we know. Anyone who takes a stab in the dark for what date is throwing **** at the wall until it sticks.

If you could put me in as Geno in Duster's clothes or just regular Geno that would be great. If you're trying to get as many users as you can that is, it's not like I want to be in the poster or anything.

So given Stage Builder's leak. I'm pretty confident on the 11th Direct. Too big of a coincidence for both to occur if you ask me.

So, regarding the current suicide pact about Erdrick getting in or not, I can't remember. Is Shiny part of the bet? What does he have to do if he loses?
