Topic: Do you think the Gemastu leak is fake?

After Sakurai revealed the new characters. This has lead many people to belive that the Gemastu leak is fake.

What do you think? Is the leak fake?

A little late to be making this but yes, STILL HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR #MONADOMONDAY AND A RHYTHM HEAVEN REP

Yes but either way I don't care. >:[

Honestly, It still holds up quite a bit. I don't think it can just be labeled as fake yet. Either way, all we can do is wait, and see. Even if it is fake though I do think a Rhythm Heaven newcomer is happening.

I label all leaks as fake, even if the information turns out to be true. How can we know if the leak was real even if information is found out to be true, it could always have been a lucky guess. So yes this was fake

I think it's nothing more than just a guess, imo. Although I'd love Shulk, even without the Gematsu leak he's pretty much guaranteed.

Yes

I think it's based on some very old information. I simply can't ignore Wii Fit trainer and villager as a coincidence

The leak is fake. Better question, why does everyone want it to be real?

And who's to say it wasn't just a good guess? There's no proof this leak was ever legitimate.

Who's to say it was just a good guess? You simply can't accurately judge until the game is out. Whether you choose to believe it or not in inconsequential. I want to believe it, but I won't go around trying to get others to.

There really is no surefire way, but I always dismiss "leaks" and "rumors" as fake, because most of them are fake.

That's true, and a very good way to keep expectations low. People who believe leaks do so at their own risk

I think it was info from someone like a janitor or secretary who overheard something very early in the development, but yes the information is no longer to be trusted. That said, Shulk and especially a rhythm heaven rep are both very likely anyways.

Fake leak announces a new character. A bunch of games believe it. When said character is not revealed, they get mad at Nintendo. Such a vicious cycle

You didn't hear it from me, but this going to make Melee look like the proof-of-concept demo it was. The controls will be tighter, 120 fps, and it has 10 unannounced characters. I heard it from my cousin's brother's uncle's nephew's cousin who happens to work at Nintendo.

Simply put,

Anyway I think there's a decent chance it's real, I mean Chrom IS still in the game after all...just not in the way we expected. I'm not saying I'm a firm believer, but some of the characters he got were just way out there. Those can't all be lucky guesses.

Yeah. Lucina and Robin coming in instead of Chrom pretty much killed it.

Of course it's fake. At best, it's accuracy before Chrom was deconfirmed was just good guesses. We should have known something was up like a year ago when Rosalina was confirmed.

to me any "leak" that doesn't show any visual proof(that can later on be either reproduced in-game or proven right by "official means") is fake.
