Topic: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U - OT

Bowser Jr., if his alternates are the Koopalings would be an ingenious inclusion. Basically 8 characters in one.

My only disappointment would be the three cuts, honestly. Ice Climbers especially.

I'd rather just wait until the game comes out than disprove leaks anymore.

copied this over from the 3DS Thread

I'm not so surprised it was one of the NOA employees. This thing happened to the same as the Pokemon X leak, (even though the Info is unconfirmed.)

I feel they're real, that video evidence is just too convincing. Yeah, Shulk uses some moves similar to Link & Marth, but clone characters have existed since Melee, so I don't see why that should be seen as evidence to disprove him. If anything, the most akward thing I saw was where it looked like Bowser Jr. was attacking with a giant tongue (out of the Clown Car's mouth) which seemed odd, but I could have just been mistaken (low video quality), and other than that it seems solid.

Personally, I'm torn on whether or not I'd actually WANT it to be real though.

• Shulk - I haven't played Xenoblade, but he seems cool & I'd definitely use him.
• Duck Hunt Dog - Awesome retro choice. I'll be disappointed if he turns out to be false.
• Bowser Jr. - Neutral on this one. I'm not excited for him, but I don't dislike the choice either (I'd rather the Mario RPG's finally get a rep though, instead of another character from the core series. Paper Mario or Fawful would have been great)
• Dr. Mario - Should have been an alt, IMO.
• Dark Pit - Same as above (his inclusion, if true, is Sakurai's bias showing big time)
• Also dislike that Wolf & Snake have been cut (though understandable in the latter case), but I couldn't care less about Ice Climbers & Lucas.

I just saw the leaked video on youtube,cause someone posted it.Damn it looks damn real especially shulk and bowser Jr.in action.

Note the word in big letters "RUMOR." I don't believe this one, either, but if the leaker was in fact in charge of sending materials to the ESRB, that might explain the convenience of the vids. But then that seems too convenient in and of itself.

Plus look at that article's "source" just some random person saying his friend told him this

The leaker gets thrown on the ground of Sakurai's office. He's scared and says, "Sakurai! I'm so sorry, sir! I couldn't resist!"
Sakurai calmly stares at the leaker from his chair with cold eyes and says, "YOU BETRAYED ME! YOU BETRAYED ME! WE'RE SUING YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE!"
The leaker cries in shame.
Sakurai grins and says one final thing.... *"Its a good thing I suspected this would happen.... all that stuff about Bowser Jr, Shulk, and Dark Pit is FAKE. You've leaked fake information. How does that feel? NOW GO!"

^ That scenario just happened at Nintendo.

And you are just as reliable of a source as that article's source lol... I will believe your story

Good Riddance! I loved how this source is better than that source from the link.

But i feel sad for sakurai waking up to see, his work being leaked by some idiot.And now we know were not getting a new smash bros direct, cause the character's they wanted to show are out there.

Except they've still done videos and reveals of characters before that were leaked. I'd expect a Direct in a week

looks at the URL
...lol. Super Smash Bros. Cafe, can't believe I remember that name. xD

Sakurai prolly shed a tear for a few seconds because a few things was running through his mind... 1: Is the fanbase for Smash Bros. that hungry for the game that they will fight for any leak? 2: How can I make a comeback and expose these lies?

I'm one of those people that think this leak is fake and just by a grandeur TROLL. I got this sneaking suspicsion that tomorrow's message from Sakurai will be of Dark Pit or Bowser Jr. as a trophy.

Oh man, I'm going to die of laughter if Sakurai crushes the leak xD

The leaks do look very convincing, but I just don't like to believe anything that I can't see and play with my own eyes and hands. I won't be upset if it's true nor if it's fake, though the exclusion of Lucas makes me upset, and generally I would prefer that Isaac, Mewtwo, or a Rhythm Heaven character are included, but overall it is a nice roster. Still, though--I just can't be 100% sure that it's real.

It would be funny if Sakurai made Bowser Jr an assist trophy,just to destroy this leak.
