@MrMario02 We've seen this leak. It seems strong due to apparently confirming characters no one thought possible, but it's hard to say how seriously it should be taken. Looking at the characters, it's pretty obvious what the method of prediction is. "Name some characters that are likely, but not safe, as well as at least one off-the-wall character that no one even considered, before." Analyzing Nintendo's past and the way Sakurai goes about adding characters, Wii Fit Trainer wasn't really impossible to guess correctly. Villager and Mega Man are no different, and people had been begging for Little Mac, Mii, and Pac-man for a long time.
His second prediction seems to support this idea, as Shulk isn't exactly unlikely, but he's just far enough from the main cast to shock some people. Palutena, too. Choir Men is the off-the-wall pick and Chrom is the obvious one, leaving Poke'mon X and Y. Seemed pretty obvious to me that Sakurai would at least try to pull inspiration from that game, and I wasn't entirely shocked to see it was a Poke'mon.
Mind you, I'm not discrediting the leak or trying to say it's fake, but I would like people to understand that it's not impossible for this to have just been a really good guess.

This stage is guaranteed to be auto-scrolling, but it's nice that the coins actually have a purpose. They could have easily been just a stage feature to add to the authenticity of the concept. This is another opportunity for strategic play, and it will cause many fights over the coins.
There's quite a bit of content in this version from 3DS games. It makes sense, but I hope there will be plenty of goodies from the past much like the Balloon Fight stage.

@UGXwolf I'm tentatively supporting this rumour. Sakurai stated in his developer interview that they had a spot reserved for an XY Pokemon from the offset, and that they'd basically decided the character line up before then anyway. So if this is based on early information then it could be accurate
You're right, they're mostly safe picks, but to get so many right so far is somewhat impressive. If Choir Man is confirmed then we can basically guarantee this is true. I think his moveset would be amazing, drawing on different games from the Rhythm Paradise series. Loving that series, and quirky characters, I would love this character in the final game.
If the rest of this list was the rest of the newcomers, would you be happy? I for one would be, despite disappointment over no Isaac. The character roster would then be filled out by veterans - Falcon, Falco, Ness, Wario and the like. No Jigglypuff or Wolf, please!
I think we'll hit a round 50 characters, to Brawl's 39. not bad if you ask me!
