As long as I've known you, this has been your one rule. I respect that you've never broken it.I don't care what the facts are, I don't apologize to Brock Reiher.
Oh shit. I was just thinking this. He wasn't sure if it was a text leak or image or whatever.I guess this also lines up with Tansut saying Nintendo got mad from a leak? Leak was posted 28 of September. Everything lines up.
The Rayman one didn't have any glaring flaws until it was fake, and then all of a sudden it was so obvious in hindsight, look at all the flaws.Eh that's still very different. This is the first time we've had someone leak something new that was entirely unrelated. The Rayman leak also used the original renders for the characters instead of adding new ones onto existing characters as with this leak.
And the Rayman leak is very different from just any leak lol. But even for that one, the video is what got many to confirm that it was fake due to inconsistencies with the footage. This doesn't have any glaring flaws outside of people not believing it.

We've discussed Geno there are two mushrooms it's fineIf this is the final roster, that whole music rule nonsense might have actually been legit
Other than Geno I guess
Oh yeah I forgot about that, maybe it was still SE that got mad from Geno.
Viva Piñata DS. Banjo GBA.If (IF) this is actually somehow real and Banjo & Kazooie are in, would this be the first time in gaming history that a first party character appeared on a rival competitor's platform in a major way (ie not just a small cameo or easter egg)?
Depends on your definitions. Opa-Opa on Famicom?If (IF) this is actually somehow real and Banjo & Kazooie are in, would this be the first time in gaming history that a first party character appeared on a rival competitor's platform in a major way (ie not just a small cameo or easter egg)?
Isn't the 2nd mushroom for Mario Kart?

I've put together three of the banners, including the leaked one, so we can compare and contrast:
Top: Current, Post-Isabelle Banner
Middle: Leak
Bottom: E3 Banner
- Luigi, Sheik and the Mii Fighters have been moved considerably. Luigi is now near the middle, left of Ken, all of the Mii Fighters are to the top right of Mewtwo, and I dunno where Sheik is.
- Jigglypuff is shifted slightly up, next to Geno, and you can see her full art.
- This is the first time we've seen Greninja's full tongue I think.
- Isaac is standing on some weird green... stuff? I assume it's meant to be Psyenergy?
- Inkling is now actually looking at someone, thanks to Mach Rider.
I decided to look into the part of the leak that might be overlooked - The Grinch. It's in the background in a couple of spots.
Universal Studios, which is distributing the film, is not listed as part of the company's references, though that's not saying too much since the movie's merchandising could be handled by a third party, like Hasbro, which is listed. Their site also still has a 2010 copyright so who knows how up-to-date it is.
Another Grinch oddity - the ornament (?) with the dog is based on this promotional art but with one major difference - the Grinch is facing the other way. As in, the ornament folds over, and there's a front and back face. I can't find a single render of The Grinch's back, although admittedly I'm not spending my Wednesday morning looking at that many Grinch images. But if such a thing isn't freely available, and this is fake, then the faker decided to also mock up The Grinch renders of all things.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, The Grinch's cinema run in France begins on November 28th. It makes sense that it'd be in the same batch as Smash, given their release proximity.
That would make sense because Tantsu seems to have a source only at Square and if Square knew the entire roster was put out there with Geno in it, they would be mad.Oh yeah I forgot about that, maybe it was still SE that got mad from Geno.
So the roster may have actually leaked on my birthday and I didn't even know about it until a month later?I guess this also lines up with Tansut saying Nintendo got mad from a leak? Leak was posted 28 of September. Everything lines up.

The stuff underneath Isaac? That's his Growth Psynergy.
He got chopped up in half by the split in the image. He's next to Falco (who's next to K. Rool).Luigi disappears from the sky on that banner, does anyone see him around?
I can't see Pichu eitherLuigi disappears from the sky on that banner, does anyone see him around?

eeeeh i don't think this merits a thread just yetGive me like 20 minutes and I'll make a thread. If anyone wants to compile important info XOXO
I don't think it's worth looking into fanarts for this, it's not likely the leaker drew 6 characters but decided to look existing art for the 7th.If we're really being nitpicky, Banjo's art looks a lot more like a mirror version of this one than the Smashfied render.

Now that is a DAMN good ideaActually if we get Shadow and the Vindicated Music Rule holds then the next OT title should be
No more Namco reps until Goku thank youI guess if this is real then we can expect KOS-MOS as namco rep dlc given her relevance is super strong after Sakurai finalized the roster. That's when she became most popular with Xenoblade 2.
Above Pikachu, as it was.
Pichu near Pikachu, Luigi near Ken.
By the time I finish it maybe it will!
