WHATS THE MATTER YOU SCARED?

 

[traveler]

I think the tourney's popularity and success really took Ninty by surprise, especially given Reggie's comments at the end. It would have been a better fit there, but it's not like they could change the plan at that point.

 

[Kaljinyu]

Okay, so it's PacLand Pac-Man. He has legs.

 

[Captain Europe]

Nice, Pacman! I was expecting to see Palutena, Mii and Pacman today,

"WHYYYYYY have you forsaken me internet

PLEASE STOP DISLIKING"

Poor small-time LPer and his streaming buddies.

It's his weakness. Too many and he's sent back to the Netherverse.

XD

 

[balladofwindfishes]

These bombs though.

Who are the 4 characters likely to be cut according to the Gematsu leak at this point?

Ivysaur, Squirtle, Snake, Lucas. The first two are obvious, Snake is sort of obviously cut, and Lucas was mentioned in a email from the same dude who leaked everything else.

 

[Cyclical]

Mario, Sonic, Mega Man, and Pacman in a single game.

Best game ever. Done.

 

[uberluigi]

Holy shit Pac Man. Gematsu leak is 100% real at this point. BELIEVE

What else did he leaked?

 

[LOLDSFAN]

We need a rebel to start leaking pictures.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

He's black-eyed Pac-man

Thank

God

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

They're dropping bombs right from the start. Hopefully there's at least a couple more new characters by the end of the night.

 

[Unicorn]

Classic man smash. Classic megaman classic sonic classic Pacman

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Sakurai wanted to use old Pac-Man but had to use Pac-Man World version, but is based on the classic Pac-Man.

 

[Frolow]

Old Pacman design? Thank god, the new one is awful.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

This version confirmed, thank god.

 

[commanderpepper]

pac is back

 

[Buddha Beam]

Meh. I get that they practically had to put him in because of Namco and all, but I still don't think Pacman has anything to really do with Nintendo.

 

[Thoraxes]

"Showing image of PacMan, Mario, Sonic and Mega Man. how cool is that?"

 

[Rayis]

STOP REVEALING STUPID CHARACTERS AND GIVE ME JIGGLYPUFF!!!

 

[Spinluck]

So that's officially everything off the first leak and two (vague or predictable) things from the second leak.

Yeah, the guesses weren't that crazy imo.

 

[Shard]

This shit is bananas.

 

[Soul Beat]

Pac-Man is nice and all, but what about Shulk, Sakurai?

 

[sixteen-bit]

There goes my pie in the sky dream for Mappy to show up as the Namco rep.

 

[MendicantBS]

i guess they're going to get revealed after the roundtable ends.

 

[Flame_AC]

It's a shame we couldn't get this at the end of the tourney instead :/

 

[greycolumbus]

Was Game and Watch on the leak list?

 

[jmizzal]

So that old leak was real lol

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

I'm stunned they saved this for the press instead of playing it at the tournament, but Pac-Man does seem more like a play for the headlines than for the Nintendo crowd (unlike a suspected Pyrosphere stage hazard I can name). I suppose the YouTube video link will unlock any moment now.

 

[Omzz]

Neal Ronaghan: Showing image of PacMan, Mario, Sonic and Mega Man. how cool is that?

very cool indeed..

 

[Banjotanooki]

Source for leak?

But GameXplain says he can become the no-legs version?

 

[d34thfrom4bov3]

This would have been an awesome reveal at the invitational too. But maybe they didn't have time for trailers for the characters yet?

 

[ErrorMacro]

Suddenly, Pac-Man. Didn't think he would be revealed so soon at the roundtable!

 

[Kjellson]

GIVE PAC MAN TRAILER

I'm going nuts here!

 

[TheOGB]

This version confirmed, thank god.

The best. Sakurai knows what's up

 

[friskykillface]

PAC GOD

Told y'all

 

[uberluigi]

I think the tourney's popularity and success really took Ninty by surprise, especially given Reggie's comments at the end. It would have been a better fit there, but it's not like they could change the plan at that point.

IMHO I think they were underwhelmed how popular it was and didn't have a trailer to reveal at the moment.

 

[Unlucky]

i guess they're going to get revealed after the roundtable ends.

#NeverGiveUpHope

 

[sdornan]

Looks like we're likely getting Shulk, Chrom, and Chorus Men too then if the rest of the leak is true.

 

[MicH]

Should have revealed it during the Invitational I wanted that fan reaction to this

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Pac-Man is nice and all, but what about Shulk, Sakurai?

I still have faith in Shulk showing up.

 

[ShadowElliot]

Pac-Man confirmed to throw fruit and eat pellets.

 

[Zeyphersan]

Huh, Pacman. Expected, this being a Namco game and all

 

[CTLance]

Sleep is for the weak, anyway. *twitch*

Why didn't tehy announce one of the two characters at the Smash event earlier? Would have been the perfect opportunity. Oh well.

 

[blitzwolf215]

So Pac-man is in, was against it at first when I heard last year, now i've come around to it.

 

[Unbounded]

Gah, why can't they show us this?

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Yeah, the guesses weren't that crazy imo.

Really? I don't buy that anyone guessed Wii Fit Trainer before E3 last year.

Probably his FS.

 

[ColossalLazy]

This version confirmed, thank god.

Sakurai knows whats up

 

[Kid Ska]

This version confirmed, thank god.

Wait really? That's fucking awesome. I can deal with that Pac.

The screams would have split reality.
