Eh, they'd get a trailer if they were playable; Sakurai isn't that much of a meanie-head.Next Sakurai is going to post a picture of Palutena and Ridley without enough context or a comment to determine if they're playable or not, and then never mention it again.
He is likely following Nintendo policy of not commenting on rumours. I mean if he says "the images are fake" people may turn around and say "yeah, but what about what they show?" I doubt he'd want to confirm whether or not a character is in the game until he chooses to.Iirc, if leaks are false, doesn't Sakurai usually blow them down via Twitter etc.?
Sakurai you masterful troll. He has to know for sure.
In fact, he could be in here, right now... Watching us...
Plot twist:
One of the SmashGAF regulars is Sakurai.
There's also the possibility that Nintendo purposely generated the leak in order to drum up some hype....! Iwata and his newfound foreign trends coulda been onto something.I wonder who leaked it and whether they feel safe tonight.

Sudden Nintendo Direct, Kid Icarus Uprising sequel for Wii U gets announced [/SPOILER]
Sakurai directing, Kamiya producing.
I think Palutena is in the game, but I think the "leak" is fake. The background looks cropped from the Wii U version, and the edges of the characters look choppy and uneven, as if someone edited it. I mean, if I were to make a fake leak, that's probably how it would look. Granted, I'd have to know how to manipulate 3D models, but from what we've seen people do with Brawl's textures, that's not an improbability.
I see iloveturtles.com coming on.There's also the possibility that Nintendo purposely generated the leak in order to drum up some hype....! Iwata and his newfound foreign trends coulda been onto something.

that almost looks like the gaf logo
I'm pretty sure Sakurai is actually afoni
Sakurai is a master at life.
Can anyone tell if it's the same model as KIU or is it different?
Viridi? It looks ripped, not sure though.
Palutena? New model.
It's only been on 3DS shots, so I'm fairly certain it's only on 3DS.
Has it been said that that KIU stage is 3DS-only? I really want to see that on Wii U to fulfill my Uprising Wii U fantasies. :<
Sakurai is actually good at trolling tho.

Until the next Direct reveals a Wii U version of Uprising is in development, along with a brand new KI stage for Wii U!It's only been on 3DS shots, so I'm fairly certain it's only on 3DS.

D:
I still like it though. Sakurai seriously gonna make me double dip for some stages.
The background is clearly from the 3DS Battlefield with trees and rock pillars.
The Wii U version looks nothing like it, lol.
It occurs to me that I've never watched the Kid Icarus shorts.
Are they free on Nintendo Video? Can I go on the shop right now and watch them?
They were free, but I just checked and there's no way to watch them NV. Certainly isn't on eShop either. Best bet is recordings on Youtube.

I see. Too bad.
Nope, YouTube is your best bet (No Idea why they are not on the eShop).It occurs to me that I've never watched the Kid Icarus shorts.

So...the thing left of Viridi. What is it?
Yep, see the picture I edited into my previous post.Oh that's her staff...scythe thing.
The wand and fingers are not clipping though.Rosalina's hand is messed up.
