People are using the hardware as the excuse, and I don't blame them, because Sakurai remarked how it was difficult for the 3DS to handle them. I'm pretty sure that's why he took out transformations so well. Now, he may have found a way around it, since this was way before Rosalina and Luma were announced
All the characters sans Lucina were decided before development so this makes no sense to me.
By the way @Blast have you played Kid Icarus online? Yeah the 3DS can definitely handle 4 measly online Ice Climbers.
Yep. I've played Kid Icarus: Uprising online before. But that's totally not the same as controlling multiple Ice Climbers.
I own a Wii U and 3DS. I also own a PS4!

I would think that the ice climbers would be more difficult to implement, there essentially two exact same characters performing the same move at the same time but with one slightly more slower than the other, plus with all the technical stuff that goes into them fighting I could imagine why they would be hard to put in seeing the 3DS capabilities, Rosalina and Luma seem just a little more simpler imo but I'm no game designer so I have no idea

I believe the AI behind Ice Climbers is far more advanced than Rosalina and Luma, and I believe this is the part that makes it difficult to implement Ice Climbers. Good Ice Climbers can get both characters to act independently (i have only been able to do it for a few seconds rarely).
People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

Ok, so i'm not sure if its just me, but the way that article was worded makes me think that Sakurai never actually specified the Ice Climbers and they were added in as an example by the journalist or editor. Sakurai said "team characters." This nightcore made the person assume Ice Climbers and actually referred to Rosalina. If the I've Climbers are out, its not due to technical difficulties. Rosalina and Luma should be fat more difficult to implement.
I never knew Rosalina was fat
Well she is a heavyweight in Mario Kart 7 for some bizarre reason
If you add me, I need to at least know you or I won't add you back.
Interesting video comparing the leak to what has been released after about the game from Nintendo.
Everything he said is what my sentiments are. At this point, I don't even feel like arguing with people anymore because it's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO obvious that it's real. We'll be proven right within a week.

The only thing I find fishy about the leak, is the lack of Ice Climbers. That polar bear enemy is in Smash Run, so I don't know why they would add an enemy from a cut franchise. I dunno, it's weird.
Sakurai said in June of 2013 that he was having difficulties adding the Ice Climbers in the 3DS version. In before you bring up Rosalina & Luma, the Ice Climbers and Rosalina are very different. There's 2 Ice Climbers, 1 which you control, and the other one that mimics your exact movements. Yes, Luma does mimic Rosalina's movements, however, the Luma uses different attacks than Rosalina, plus Luma is a lot smaller than the Ice Climbers.
I have some theories:
1. Ice Climbers are cut due to limitations on the 3DS.
2. They were cut to make way for more characters.
3. They're only in the Wii U version.
4. They're unlockable.
So yeah.
