Fuck it. TeamNeutral from here on out baby!

Also, man after a pretty big lull in hype between SDCC and the Meta Knight reveal, its great to see all this discussion about these leaks.

Please be real
I WANT TO BELIEVE

These were just posted on /v/. Seem to be cleaner versions of the Duck Hunt Dog render.
 
You know what update would make the leak much more credible, despite not being a character/stage update? One about the CSS, where it's said it can be customised in several ways, including removing characters' names from their selection screen icon.
 

"Please trust me"
Iwata is the leaker

Anyway, this is a classic non-explanation, all about friends-of-friends. And if his friend was given "over 20 photos and 9 videos," then why do we only have 8 photos and 0 videos? Why leak only the least compelling stuff? Again, that doesn't make sense, and I'd love to hear an actual explanation.

Is that a) hope? b) based on evidence? c) based on leaks/speculation?

I hope it's b!

it's more than hope

it's hype

I mean, fake or real, I really think people should not get so up in arms about this. I've seen Gaffers say stuff like "LOL I'm so making a list of those who think it's real so they can eat crow hueheueheu"...and I'm like, really? What do you guys want, cookies? E-peen? God, loosen up.

I, for one, am I very pleased we are not talking about boots or some really asinine fanfiction and that something really huge/well done has fallen on our laps to discuss and think about.
Neiteio don't you dare jinx me
 
Having an insider spoil the roster is one thing, but this is a pretty huge leak if it is true since this is the American version which is still a month away. Nintendo can't be happy right now... although nothing will ever beat the UMvC3 roster being leaked the day it was announced. ;)
 
Things that make it seem believable:
  1. Highlighted stage actually increases in size, therefore overlaps w/ UI - known behavior of stage select. (counterpoint - leaker is really good at paying attention to detial, included it in the fake)
There's a distinct problem there, though - the overlap is going over the bottom screen image. As in, if this were real it would mean that the bottom screen would have a sliver of the random select over it, which would look terrible and make little sense.

I think this little slipup is probably the biggest indicator of the leak being fake, alongside ESRB0083.
 
Those "clean versions" posted on /v/ scream of someone else pretending it's fake by posting artwork that disproves it.


Like with the guy that owned up to creating the fake pokemon screens on /v/ even though they were actually real.
 
The clone corner is such a sakurai move. It's completely believable that clones added late in development will just feel bolted on like Wolf and Toon Link did in brawl.

What if Sakurai himself is the leaker and
is using Bill Trinen to create the most
dastardly ruse of them all, Polly?
 
I love seeing that Gif in Smash threads. That season of survivor featured classic Melee champ Ken. (And because of that, it's the only one I ever watched.)
This I didn't know :O
I'm not a survivor fan nor do I watch much smash competition but good on Ken.

Ha, nice.

Good point about the 4chan explanation, but all that suggests is that Anon is lying, not necessarily that the leak is fake.

Why am I trying to hard?...
 
Would they really keep Ice Climbers enemies and relegate the characters to being cut or included in DLC? Think, #TeamReal! Come toward the light.
 
I made the connection first!!! >:0
Then I agree wholeheartedly with your thoughts.


Also, Dark Pit has been basically "confirmed" for a while. Palutena video +Lucina's clone status+lack of Dark Pit color on demo+Sakurai making Dark Pit a separate character in KI:U.

At least that's what I believe.
 
Those ears look weird. Plus if the leaker did record it from a video, he shouldn't have access to the clean render. I'm not buying it for a second.

Arguably, the ears look weird even in the perspective they're viewed from on the original leak image. The ears look like they're in total antigravity mode. I assumed that dog perked his ears up when he finds a duck.

I mean his ears are zig-zaggy almost like Pikachu's tail :P
