@Skid Granblue Fantasy is made by the same company that makes Dragalia Lost, Cygames, there's your Nintendo connection. It's also the most popular mobile title in Japan at the moment, despite being barely a thing in the west.
@link3710 And it can very quickly turn out to be wrong once there's one bit of wrong news. He can very well go the way of Emily Rodgers or whomever when he gets one character wrong.
But even if what's leaked was true, no big deal. They all have very strong footholds in Japan so it doesn't matter. The American fanbase will piss and moan of course, though.
Metroid, Xenoblade, EarthBound shill
I run a YouTube/Twitch channel for fun. Check me out if you want to!
Please let me know before you send me a FC request, thanks.
@Knuckles-Fajita It's a game where you spend real money to collect virtual images of hot women apparently. It's absolutely huge in Japan, and Nintendo is now closely partnered with the creator, Cygames. That's all I know.
@PikPi I hate leaks and rumors for getting dumb fans riled up, then when it's proven wrong like with Pokemon Stars or the Grinch leak they blow up due to their own fault of choosing to buy into leaks. Remember the huge outrage against Ultra Sun and Moon because it wasn't Stars?
I don't care for them inherently and I still look into them since on their own they're harmless to me, but I don't like the effect it has on other people, clinging into circular evidence or "he was right in the past, he should still be right now". Some companies do get the worst of accurate leaks, like Bethesda who had Fallout 4 and 76 leaked by the same person. Nintendo leakers are much more hit-and-miss or outright misses though.
@EvilLucario Yeah, Stars is the big one. If there was no mention about it, Pokemon Gen 8 and Metroid Prime 4 may have been early 2019 surprise announcements with some gameplay rather than the awkward segments of E3 2017. Stars fueled the 3DS hatred we've seen over the past nearly 2 years.
I quite like the Piranha Plant character. Its a original and different same lines as game and watch, wii fit trainer, duck hunt, rob the robot. Not popular but smash gives characters that don't noticed a chance as well and soon they do. I do think people should get over Waluigi, its not going to happen hes a assist trophy its not going to change.
As for the 5 DLC characters. They said they've done with characters from old games so I'm thinking they might be from current and future games. Rex and Spring Girl I think might get a chance as they were teased a bit with the mii costumes. As its traditional maybe a new pokemon with the gen 8 game might be included.
It can still be argued that Vergeben just makes good guesses.
He "leaked" Simon(not Richter), said Snake and Ice Climbers were returning, Isabelle Ken, Inceniroar and Ridley.
However, no mention of Chrom, Dark Samus, Richter, K. Rool, Daisy or Piranha Plant.
I feel like if he actually had inside sources, he would've spilled the entire roster a while ago. Or if he was scared of getting his source in trouble, he would've at least hinted at the new characters. Like "we're getting a DK rep" "Were also getting a Mario rep that's an enemy" etc. I don't know, seems odd he wouldn't know the entire roster if he actually had inside info.
@farrow000 It was said that all the DLC would be Smash newcomers because the Smash veterans are all in the base game, nothing was mentioned about how old/new the games the DLC characters come from are.
@farrow000 That part is what I'm talking about, it's not about no more fighters from older games but rather no more Smash veterans because every past Smash character is already in the base game.
