This is one of the few leaks that have made me legitimately laugh. The picks are so bad it hurts. The only one plausible from that is Lucas. (EDIT: oh forgot about Mewtwo)

Dixie was seemingly going to be in Smash Brawl at one point it seems, as well as Sakurai entertaining the possibility of Toon Zelda/Sheik, Toon Ganondorf doesn't seem too far of a stretch either.

I actually think Hawlucha out of all of them seems reasonable too, it seems like a Pokemon TPC would want to promote like they did with Greninja, it's going to be a main character in the show soon too.

EDIT: Incidentally Greninja and Hawlucha were both leaked at the same time for XY...

I'll give you the data in Brawl for Dixie, but Toon Ganondorf is a bit farfetched still.

You could use the reason you gave for Hawlucha for any of Ash's Pokémon, like Fletchinder, Aipom or even Tauros.
 
I think Ms. Pac-Man is a given. Sure, a different character, but she's such a huge part of Pac-Man's legacy that I'd be genuinely shocked if it didn't happen. Didn't her arcade have more success than Pac's own? I'm betting on "shoe-in" here.

Also, is anyone else annoyed that THE Pac-Man stage, based on the game every single person thinks of when thinking of Pac-Man, is seemingly 3DS exclusive, whereas the U version gets one based on Pac-Land, which is infinitely more obscure in comparison?

It's almost like they want people to buy both versions.
 
Bandana Dee, lol

They already have Waddle Dees running all over Smash Run

Don't think a spear and bandana is enough

Bandanna Dee has been killing fellow Dees since Nightmare in Dreamland. He's a race traitor.

Broken link. Is that referring to the Press Start concerts in Japan? I always wished we could hear more recordings of those.

Click link then press enter on browser to load it. Famitsu is weird like that.
 
Wow, Shulk and Dunban sound totally different tonally in Japanese than I'd have imagined. Dunban in particular sounds a lot younger!

Ooh! Well noted. I'd expected Dunban's japanese voice to be more like 'Joji Nakata's style (or as I always remember him: The count of Monte Cristo in Gankutsuou :3 ) That man's voice is so smooth and deep it's almost hypnotic XD
 
So, if you were to choose another company to create a Smash Bros. style crossover fighting game, who would you choose? Capcom is a really tempting choice for me, but after thinking about it I actually think Square Enix would be my first pick. I know they made Dissidia, but I'd love a game that brings in other franchises like Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest, and Kingdom Hearts.

And, you know...maybe sneak in Geno while you're at it.

The first DLC characters by all rights should be cut characters from the previous games. If they're not there'll be rioting in the streets. One guy can be a riot yeah?

Game Freak with a bunch of pokemon would work really well
pokken pls
They could even add in some guest characters like Jill or Tempo!
 
Tonight will be an F-Zero stage with a Captain Falcon stage hazard.

Found this while perusing reddit. Anyone else read it? He makes a strong argument for Ridley's inclusion, or as strong an argument one can make when one's premises hinge on observed patterns.

I'm of the opinion that Sakurai teased Ridley the way he did expecting for fans to commit to an uncertain hope,
only to later dash them. In which case I am gladly trolling in the name of Lord Sakurai's work by spreading false hopes. Or am I? Such is the majesty of Sakurai.

I thought it was assumed that if we got alts, we'd get Ms. Pac-Man. I doubt she'd play too differently, but if we're getting 4-6 variations on the Villager and the 2 Wii Fit Trainers (The male WFT's half a head taller than the female WFT in Wii Fit itself), I don't see why they can't just add a bow to Pac-Man's model and make changes to the texture that could be done in, like, MS Paint.
Villager and Wii Fit Trainer are not comparable to Pac-Man. Neither Villager, nor Wii Fit Trainer are actual characters. Villager is an avatar and the male and female versions are just as important as each other. Wii Fit Trainer is essentially a mannequin and again, both genders are just as important to each other. The male and female versions of those characters are interchangeable.

Pac-Man on the other hand is his own character with his own name. He's not an avatar, he's not nameless. Having Ms. Pac-Man as an alt would be a first in the Smash Bros. series. The first character to have an alternate costume of a different character. What would happen when he (she?) wins? Does the announcer still call him/her Pac-Man? That would mean that it's just Pac-Man in drag. If you call him/her Ms. Pac-Man then you're essentially undermining Pac-Man.

Yeah that argument about sums up my feelings on the matter. If Ridley wasn't playable, he would have been shown by now - there's no reason not to unless Sakurai actually thinks that having him be a boss character would be a Big Crazy reveal - after he was a boss twice in Brawl. So...

It's also a big reason that I'm not taking the Gematsu leak as Word of God quite yet. It has no Ridley, and it had no Rosalina. I think people are jumping to conclusions about its validity - especially in the context of it having all the characters.
 
yarn stage

I sure hope so <3
