I just don't see Shovel Knight in Smash Bros. It means that any character could be in Smash with ease.
Which means Ninja Turtles should be in Smash Bros.
I rather have TMNT in Smash Bros than Shovel Knight any day.
Why not both? (or all 5, I guess)
They can be all alts similar to Bowser Jr and the kooplaings.
I wonder if that would be possible with all their different weapons. Maybe have different animations with the same hit boxes? I could see two skins for each Turtle and then with 4 turtles that would be 8 skins, but not sure how that would work with their different weapons and fighting styles. But Turtles aren't going to happen so it doesn't really matter lol
People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

"I wasn't going to post about this initially but I guess it might be worth it now.
An anonymous source reached out to me on Twitter yesterday saying Shovel Knight is absolutely coming to Smash and that I can "quote them on it." Of course I don't believe anything like that sight unseen, and I let them know as much, but they proceeded to give me very, very, specific details about Shovel Knight's supposed moveset and Stage - too many details for them all to be lucky guesses.
Who knows if any of it is true, but they also said he's getting revealed at PAX... so at least I don't have to wait long to find out if they're full of it or not. I have reached out to them again in light of the amiibo getting leaked, but haven't heard back yet.
I'll keep you guys updated for anything this little situation is worth."

@DefHalan Well thanks for ninja-ing me as I steuggled to type this all on my phone. Great use of five minutes of my time...
I don't believe it, I think movesets are very easy to make up for a lot of characters, and it seems the crazier your idea the more people will want to believe it. Even if Shovel Knight does come to Smash, i don't think this "leak" is real.

Well, PAX is a couple of days from now, right? As equal, I'm disregarding that and wait for news from official sources. Besides, someone detailing movesets isn't what I'd call "proof".
@DefHalan: Ah no man I'M sorry. I just got a bit salty cause I spent a lot of time scrolling up and down and typing bits and pieces of the thing on my phone only to have someone put the whole thing up before I was done. Bluh
If you add me, I need to at least know you or I won't add you back.
I should point out that the picture above of a posting from a "MaverickHunterAsh" is actually Ash from GameXplain. He also says that we shouldn't trust his source until proven otherwise.
On another note, SourceGaming is backing up Tamaki, saying that one of their sources has been proven to be a legitimate source in the past, and that said source is confident that Shovel Knight is coming to Smash. However, Tamaki has been adamant to remind people that the rumor is that Shovel Knight would be revealed for Smash over the coming months.
In that case, if the rumor is true but Shovel Knight isn't revealed tonight, then we'd most likely have to wait until October 3rd, the day the Smash Ballot closes.
I honestly wouldn't mind Shovel Knight being in Smash as a DLC character that is put in to appeal to western gamers and because of the ballot. It just feels like the timing is off because the game is not in Japan yet, and might not be for a while. I feel like they should do stuff here to increase his visibility first. Ease him into the Japanese gaming community. I still don't know if I'm sold on him as a character yet.
If he does get in because of the ballot, maybe gamefaqs and reddit can be nicer to Sakurai. A little?
