I'm thinking Ness, Magicant or both for tonight's pic.

 

[Pompadour]

I don't believe it.

That means both Koopalings and Duck Hunt Dog will each get a trailer prerelease when there less than three weeks left. Most certianly, one of the newcomers will get trailers before release but two? I say no unless they are from the same series.

I will happily eat ducks if wrong tho becuase it means less cuts and Marshall, but I just can't see them not being in the leaked CSS screen.

Plus DHD Is the perfect final unlock. No way he is a starter character.

Brawl had only three characters designated in the secret section of the DOJO as Snake and Sonic, while unlockable, were revealed early on. Four if you count Toon Link which no one should.

The reality of fighting games is that letting everyone know that they're favorite character is in the game prior to release increases sales. Most fighting games in general reveal all the characters before launch regardless if their locked in game or not.

 

[OricWindstar]

Vuapol pls

You're a junior so maybe you didn't get a chance to vote in the poll.

Don't contradict me, man. My first thought for the Voteless Vet was Ganondorf, and we can see how well that turned out. I don't want to be disastrously wrong twice in a row.

I'm so temped to spoil it. XD

 

[Neoxon]

Does it have to be Directs though? Just do what they did with Robin/Lucina/Falcon.

Didn't I say that already?

 

[WiiRevolution1]

Being a fan of the 3DS version is hard.

Don't worry. We both know the 3DS version is superior no matter how much the stages suck. #Handheldsarethebest #Sleepmodeisthebest

Guys. Guys. I just realized...

What if we get Ice Climber for the 3DS version...

and Ice Climbers for the WiiU version?

Technically, they'll have the same characters.

 

[Gleethor]

Replaaaaays!

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Ah, good call. Who did nobody pick at E3?

Hm, I don't remember. But I think all the vets available in the demo were pretty popular choices anyway, so I don't think it'll be one of them. I'm thinking it'll either be a clone (like Roy) or a Brawl newcomer (like Lucario) (sorry Vuapol)

AWWWWWW SHIT!!!!!

You crossed your theiy'res. Not sure if intentional or just stupid

I literally thought of this just seconds before reading this post

I like the way you think

 

[SenorArdilla]

Yo! It's happening again.

 

[IntelliHeath]

That's cool. but you should save the image and upload to imgur because 4chan will expired.

 

[FiddyShadeJ]

Look at us... So desperate for information we're taking the word of some wall of text claiming to be the leaker. We're all climbing over each other in an attempt to stay in the light. Stay strong, brothers. We can make it.
...

WHEN'S OUR NEXT DIRECT!?

 

[Golnei]

I'm so temped to spoil it. XD

We've got enough leaks this week, we don't need you to start leaking the results yourself.

...Unless it was via blurry, out-of-focus off-screen photo. That'd be perfectly acceptable.

Edit: Beaten to death by irony.

 

[OricWindstar]

Awwwwww, shit!

Unfortunately, he required a sacrifice.

Only time will tell if it was worth it.

All of this is true.

And of course the ride will never end.

Wat

WAT

 

[Beelzebufo]

Nice to see album and replays return! But hmmm... No stage builder then? Wii U only?

 

[MisterWisp]

I'm thinking we'll see yet another 3DS menu screen that we first saw in the massive leak for tonight's PoTD. :L

edit: MORE leaks? ho boy!

 

[IntelliHeath]

Did you see my post last page or two pages ago? I just suggested same thing.

Haha! I'm so mad I didn't think to do that! I may have to do that for shits and giggles anyway.

 

[Neiteio]

Your guys' okayness with solo Ice Climbers is insane. Ice Climbers is one of the coolest characters in all of fighting games even if I don't really play them myself.

Not that that note is true at all.

I'm not saying I believe it or not. It's all speculation. -IF- Ice Climbers went solo, I trust Sakurai could make it work. Although I agree, they're so special as a pair.

And of course the ride will never end.

Oh nice, leaks still leakin'

 

[Ryce]

I saw that picture this morning. I don't think it's "new."

 

[BitStyle]

This pic is old, it was from dropbox linked to the MFL antics on /v/ that /vg/ ended up uncovering iirc.

Let's think about this.

There are two reasons you'd want to spoil it: either I'm right, and you want to congratulate me, or I'm wrong again, and you want to laugh at me. Now, having known you for lo these past three months, it's pretty obvious that you're too nice a person for the latter to be true; you lack the schadenfreude necessary. Therefore, it must be the former.

It's Lucario, guys. Case closed

 

[Rapture]

Here we go again!

EDIT: i guess we all overlooked that screen due to the other megatons in that leak.

 

[GamerSoul]

Tips? Tips?

No way, I think ROB is too popular around here. On the other hand, I can't think of anyone who gives a damn about Lucario (if you do, don't say so! Keep us in suspense!)

True, Lucario is a good guess. I'd be really surprised if he's ranks higher than who we have so far. And R.O.B might be popular but I dunno if he's top 3 votes popular. lol

edit: imo, you don't have to spoil it yet. It will be clear in time.

 

[Neiteio]

Oh, so no new leaks then? Bummer. :-\

Link to that? Don't remember seeing this.

Then I guess we are all slowpokes.

 

[Beelzebufo]

Nooo don't do it! It'll be funnier to just see Lucario show up as #12 tomorrow.

Sigh...

Plus DHD Is the perfect final unlock. No way he is a starter character.

R.O.B., who is Duck Hunt's equivalent in Brawl, was not the final unlock. The final unlock in Vs. Matches is Wolf, and Wolf's Non-SSE, Non-Vs. method requires the SSE to have been completed first, and you can only unlock Wolf in SSE after completing the story. There is absolutely no way to unlock him without unlocking R.O.B. first.

I updated the link into my older post, but yeah, the picture came out with the rest of the spill.

Yay more leaks!

The stage builer is likely Wii U only.

Edit:Crap

It might be, if only because of Amiibos.

 

[I'M FINISHED!]

Why should the fact that the Wii U version is more expensive mean it should be the definitive version? It's not even a fair comparison: the Wii U version is more expensive because it's a Wii U game, not because it necessarily has more content. Both games are full price with respect to their platforms; the 3DS version isn't a "discount" game, so it's not going to be treated like one by getting fewer characters.

And, again, this is all just speculation. There's zero real evidence that the 3DS version is holding Smash back.

The pricing differences shows they are inherently unequal to begin with. So if one version is being held back for reasons that haven't been explained, skepticism over parity is a natural outcome. Maybe there is a reason and it is amazing, maybe there isn't, either way, the idea of parity hasn't been justified. The Wii U version getting more content doesn't make the 3DS version less appealing if someone has no plans of buying the Wii U game anyway.

The elimination of transforming characters is already evidence that the 3DS version is dictating design choices.
