Super Smash Bros Wii U & 3DS Thread 4: New Year, Old Arguments

The defense is aware that all claims have been conjecture. We argue that your own conjecture carries no precedence over ours, and since you're the first to refute our claims...

It is up to you provide evidence that our claims are false. Remember, we hold the presumption of innocence.

It's hard to judge the sweetness of the brown nectar on looks alone, Trite.
 
So, wait, the Palutena rumor has turned SmashGAF into a Phoenix Wright fanfiction over trying to debunk it?

I love this thread. SmashGAF is just the right amount of crazy.

And yeah, I hope Palutena is in. She's awesome. I hope that if she gets an announcement trailer that the logo at the end will say "Super Bash Sisters", though.
 
Another thing that makes me doubt the legitimacy is the extent to which people have modded Brawl. In the recent P:M release, there were several new costumes with full model swaps. I've seen model swap hacks before on a smaller scale for that game. There are people throughout the community with the talent to make it happen. Especially considering they can probably get her Brawl model straight from that game and change it around.

lol, loving the AA squabble up there. Even the most pointless arguments can be fun if we keep them in that style. Inb4 Ridley is convicted of being too big.

Before I go, would love to point out that this has gotten a LOT of coverage.

If it's a fake, expect to hear from Nintendo very soon, this is plastered everywhere.
How many of you have already tweeted it to Sakurai? But no, I honestly don't expect to hear anything unless it's real. And then just a slightly earlier reveal, which for all we know could have secretly been planned all along.
 
Palutena had such great dialogue in Uprising that I hope there's a way to trigger talk by her in the game. Like Snake's codec Easter eggs on Shadow Moses Island in Brawl, or Fox's wingmates on Lylat Cruise. Like maybe you can spam your taunt on the Kid Icarus stage and Palutena will start talking to other KIU personalities like Viridi, Hades, etc. And if Pit's present, perhaps Palutena and Pit could converse with each other.
 
smashgaf is going insane and here I am, suffering from so much pressure on the side of my head everytime I just look at a screen
 
That trailer was trying to pass off as a new game, not one that's currently in development with media that we've already seen.

If the Palutena is a fake they would probably have to recreate the stage with perfect accuracy based off of a handful of screenshots, recreate with perfect accuracy the Mario model, and create from scratch a brand new Palutena model that matches the existing 3DS aesthetic.

I don't think that's necessarily less work at all than that dark blurry video. Prove me wrong.
A handful? There's loads of battlefield screens available so the layout is really easy to guess and since they only focus on the sky it is even easier. Put the hills pointing / this way to the left and those point \ to the right.

And now you bring up aesthetic. Well it's rather easy to match as the style adopted by this game is Brawl with a few tweaks and brighter colours. The faker already had a reference to how Palutena looked in Brawl so that was an easy enough reference to use. In fact this is one of the reasons I'm still doubtful. Pit was updated to reflect this Uprising look but Palutena still retains her Brawl look. That's just odd. And finally her face is really lifeless. I don't know what it is but just compare the screens posted in [post=98069345]Ryce's post[/post]. The Uprising model is far more dynamic whereas the leak one is rather rigid. She's not even lifting her shield. If there is one big difference between the Brawl and the Smash 4 aesthetic it is how expressive the characters now are but this Paluteena is just drab.

So basically I've shown that 1. background is easy to fake 2. it's easy to show on the 3DS and photograph it 3. people are willing to make 3D models from the ground up just for a fun fake and all you've done is claim I'm wrong. So why am I still the one needing to prove things?
 
Okay, everyone, please behave please. EmCee want this thread to be present better, so some of you are not helping. Please stop, and just respect what EmCee asked us to do.
 
why couldn't this "leak" happen on a nothing day

today's new edge grab mechanics generated a ton of fun discussion... something I can't say for 99% of the new screenshots lol
 
Almost regret using Blackquill and not Calisto Yew, now.

I expect tomorrow's image to be incredibly dull. Like, I doubt even the caption is gonna save it, like it did today's.

What's the general opinion? If there's one.

Are they happy or mad at this?
 
I would appreciate it if people stop using Ace Attorney 5 characters because I haven't play the games. I'm pretty sure that there are few people that haven't play 5th too.

Yeah, I agreed. I did planned to bring up today's update tomorrow to make sure people remember today's update.

I'm the only one who has.

Blackquill laughing is not a spoiler.

Well, I suppose Village has as well, now, but Athena talking is also not a spoiler.
 
So, Phoenix Wright for Smash? I'd be okay with that.
I'd all for it, though I can't think of a recovery for him (not that I'd imagine that one couldn't be made).

((Maybe Phoenix might actually be Good for competitive play in THIS fighting game)).
I mostly want a Ace Attorney rep for the trophies
 
I guess we are going to have an early Smash Weekend soon.
Yes.
In community :p

Even if Palutena is real, revealing her so soon would be too soon me think, we had to wait 6 months for Rosalina.
Or the game release might be closer than expected and so the hype/marketing engine start to speed up.

Takes out a stepladder.

Not a ladder.
