ESRBleak all over again?

Those Smash screens look legit! Really hoping that we end up getting that port on Switch this year. Porting Wii-U games like that in year 1 seems like the best move for exposure and building up the library.
Now all we need is Pokemon Stars in 2017 and Switch will be the console of my dreams within less than one year.

That's what I've always wanted from a potential smash port, for it to exist!
Assuming fake though. Still hoping it'll have a showing at E3.

The Paper Mario stage looks a lot better than the 3DS version.

It's literally impossible for an anonymous channer to get direct screenshots. The Smash Run screens look like they still use the 3DS models which makes me think it's just an upres.

Nah it's a fake, just look at toon link it's the model from the 3DS version and not the WII U. There is no reason to keep this art-style for the switch handheld mode.

There are some weird details on the characters that look like their 3DS selves (especially Bowser Jr. and MegaMan). But the backgrounds have texture/model detail that would go beyond Citra (mainly on Paper Mario stage).
It kinda reminds me of that Dr. Mario stage hoax but the effort here looks more than that. But yeah, the character model oddities make me think it's fake.

That's because it is the same one
Citra can make 3ds games hd and some look good because of future-proofed assets.
If this is future-proofed assets, Nintendo are insane at their jobs.

Character models seem worse, though

I was just about to post that as well! Saw Dystify point it out via Twitter. Looks like a night and day difference to me!

Fake or not, the colors in those screenshots look very strange. Almost like they're photos of screens rather than direct grabs.

I mean it looks convincing and could be true, but never underestimate the lengths fans would go to to make fake leaks.

That's definitely the 3DS bowser jr though
Wild guess: photos from undocked mode (?!?)

I hope that those smash leaks are real.
Please let there be more new characters...

Why would character models completely change when undocked?
Of course it's fake. There is no reason the Switch version would use the character models from Smash 3DS.

Yeah if they're real that sounds quite reasonable.
I don't see how that Bowser Jr. is any different from the Wii U model...
Not saying this is real though.
They all look less clean than on Wii U, tbh
Upscaling from 240p is more reasonable than Downscaling from 1080p. Really?

Considering we were expecting a port of the Wii U version of the game, why do the character models look more like the 3DS version?

Guys lets not forget that one rumor
New 3DS version as well as the Switch version........
Poly count and texture work? Just look at Mega Man and especially Toon Link. These are 3DS model in higher resolution.
Even the lightning engine is straight from the 3DS version.

I'm agnostic on that alleged leak, but if it's fake, it's a pretty good fake.
Skittzo0413

No, the images being photos of handheld mode rather than screenshots is what I'm talking about. The colors look off if these are just screenshots.
I'm comparing them to their Wii U models and I don't see a difference, but I guess I don't have the most discerning eye when it comes to that.

Can someone fill me in on what Citra is?
Isn't this Yoshi's Melee one? Obviously with different graphics, but still.

Okay, THIS one looks fake to me. It looks too clean, like it couldn't possibly be a screenshot of a game in motion.
It's a 3DS emulator.

The Smash Hype Machine is too enticing to keep leakers away.

They ain't making 58+ character specific target test courses, lol. And even if they did, they wouldn't just rip off Melee's stages and aesthetics.
This is so fake.
PLEASE. I was so bummed this wasn't in smash 4
Now THAT is photoshopped.
Can someone quickly whip up some comparisons with the 3DS Smash Run? If there's a noticeable improvement here, as with the Paper Mario stage, then this is very likely real, no matter the difference with the character models.
Also, Smash for Wii U/3DS didn't have any Break the Targets stages like that.

You clearly don't. The difference is obvious. The flat lighting is a giveaway.

The inverse is if the image is fake, it's safer for the leaker to use characters that are already known about.
Notice the lighting on his head and the clown car's lips. Clown car is less glossy, hair tuft is less detailed. Mouth is a deeper shade of red all around and the colours are simpler.

Also, doesn't that Target shot have a different clock font than Smash 4?

SSB games always had photo mode, right?
The image seems to be based on the Melee version:

I mean
Both Wii and WiiU games were completely hacked
It would be really easy for tons of talent modders to whip up some fake shit...
We need to vett our sources. The Smash community is to huge and talented to be trusted
