Topic: Has SuperMetalDave64's "Leaks" Now Ben Disproven?

So, I'm sure everyone remembers this leak. After the Nintendo Direct Yesterday, there are some games that were announced for 3DS that are absent from his list, such as: Kirby Planet Robobot, Rhythm Heaven, and even Monster Hunter Generations. Does this disprove his "leaks"?

@MrNinten: SMD's leaks were only for 1st party retail games so Monster Hunter wouldn't be in the list anyway (Capcom, not Nintendo). Kirby and Rhythm Heaven could be 2 of the codename titles (e.g. Kirby = Torte City, Rhythm Heaven = Cadillac). The only evidence against his leaks so far and even that's arguable is Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE releasing June 24th instead of 2nd half of 2016 (a week after June 24th is July 1st, the beginning of the 2nd half of 2016 so Nintendo could've decided to move the release forward a week or so after the leak happened).

Yeah the only things going against him are Tokyo Mirage Sessions being released earlier, and the fact that Dragon Quest VII is now "2016" instead of "Early Summer 2016", suggesting it may have been pushed back. Not enough to disprove his leaks. Kirby = Torte City and Rhythm Heaven = either Cadillac or N-Stars, probably the former.

@IceClimbers: DQVII was summer in his leak, not early summer.

His leak says games "Funded By Nintendo". I imagine that Nintendo is funding Monster Hunter, or at least for the localization.

I thought Cadillac was the Disney thing and Caviar F was Rhythm Heaven

I'd be surprised if Rhythm Heaven had some kind of internal codename. Because the game wasn't a secret as a game that had already launched in Japan. Even so the codenames not lining up doesn't necessarily prove anything. They could be codenames for games we still don't know about.

But yeah, it's a bit sketchy and always has been.

I haven't really been following this.If this guys leaks turn out to be correct,am I right in saying we still have an unannounced Wii u game coming?Or will that have been Paper Mario?We might have heard rumours it was coming but it was still unannounced.

On another note,why are these sources leaking stuff anyway and what do they get out of it?They supposedly work inside Nintendo so remain anonymous and leak info to random Youtubers.They get no personal credit for it and risk losing their job and potentially damaging their future career,while at the same time ruining surprises for everyone else.I can see no benefit to it for anyone other than the random Youtubers who get the info and the channel hits that come with it.The way things have been I wouldn't be surprised if we hear all of the reveals from Nintendo's E3 Digital Event days or weeks before it takes place.

@OorWullie: If the leak is correct then the unannounced game was Paper Mario Color Splash.

@OorWullie:
A few groups can benefit from leaks depending on what it is. It can be a deliberate leak designed to benefit the company leaking it. It could be done to gain traffic, fame or because it's in the public interest. It can be done by someone who is annoyed at their company and wants to do some damage.

Or it could be accidental. Which is how a lot of the legit leaks happen. Especially when there are multiple parties involved. The more people involved the more likely something will get out.

List of games though.... I have no idea who gains anything from that. The sites pushing it maybe but other than that.

At this point who cares? Leaks are becoming less fun when other people overanalyze them. If he's right, kudos to him and his source. If he's not, well he's just another internet user.
