You can visit his Twitter profile to see other predections that turned out to be true.

I don´t know what to say, but randomly predict Byleth back in October and get it right is way too much lol

No other tweet apart from that makes me think he may have had dozens of tweets with diferent characters only to delete them after the presentation.

So, where's that direct ? Cause Sakurai presenting a character is in no way a direct

I wouldn't trust accounts like this, tweeting a bunch ofbcharacters and then deleting all the wrong ones is very easy.

Based on their account, they probably guessed a bunch of characters and deleted the ones that were wrong.

Why is anyone giving this faker attention? Why even give this guy a thread he doesn't deserve? It's so obvious he faked everything. He just deleted his Twitter/put it on private and now it is back on public. I fully expect this to be locked.

Byleth pretty safe guess to a degree
Or rather, a character that people "feared" was a possibility considering sakurais love of FE/it's success

I am not saying in no way that this person has the truth, but is superfunny to me how people now say that Byleth was an easy to guess character. Sure mate.

Next character will be Phoenix Wright and you can quote me on this. Getting my career started here and now.

Who's to say that they didn't just say a bunch of characters & delete the wrong ones? Either way, we'll find out with the Direct they mentioned in due time.

Though as I mentioned elsewhere, as happy as I'd be for CyberWolfJV, I can't say I'd be too jazzed about Activision Blizzard getting a rep in Smash.

While I really dislike they put Byleth in, this was kinda the most obvious Nintendo character choice tbh.
Rex from XC2 has been deconfirmed with his mii costume, other characters aren't big enough (or already in), Fire Emblem was DLC last time, etc.

Come on, loads of people predicted Byleth. Just do an advanced Twitter search for "byleth smash" and set the dates to before the presentation. Tons of hits.

Is this another "insider" that throws a bunch of predictions on the wall and deletes the ones that are wrong?

Lol, I love how it isn't potato cam photos of a printout that makes people skeptical of a leak, but the mere mention of the words Crash Bandicoot.

Yep, Byleth was one of the most requested characters from JP players, back in September.

Person who predicts a kinda obvious pick is now being treated like some leaker?

Everyone guessed everyone somewhere. Hell even someone guessed Joker. Everyone apart from Joker in that pass was not exactly a massive leap in logic.

it's fake; I can't believe that people kept falling for it over and over here.
This was made specifically to prove a point about false information.
Sora would never be top US pick and EU. Image is likely doctored.

Oh it's fake lol it's the same 1 posted on the speculation thread should have known.
Oops sorry, didn't realize it was fake. :P

If suggesting Byleth is coming to Smash makes you a leaker, I guess I'm a leaker. I made that prediction months ago...because it was hardly a risky bet.
