To be fair, he also holds his hand up with his fingers close together in the universal symbol for "a small amount" when he says it.

Damn there's a new conspiracy of Nintendo and the journalist. Teamreal be getting out of hand at times. Lol
I don't buy it for a second but I guess I understand the logic? Like the leak breaks so in order to maintain good relationships with Nintendo the insiders don't say anything about it so as to not legitimize the leak in the public's eye.
I just took it as "made it way easier." Brawl made you play 450 vs matches to unlock everyone, and I think gave you a new character roughly every 50. I could see this game giving you a new one roughly every 5, while still keeping the alternate methods of unlocking like beat classic with x character so no matter what you're constantly unlocking people
Let's just say if this leak is real and Incineroar was leak bait, then it did do it's job because now every insider is doing every thing in there power to discredit the leak, with all these insiders calling the leak fake it leads to people believing them and to not expect the leak characters to be confirmed
Jonneh (the mod) posted on twitter an otter. Last time he posted otters like crazy was for a Nintendo Direct. This is his way of telling us a Direct is coming.
We don't actually know for sure. It's either the OG 8, or the OG 12. With how they originally showcased it could go either way.
Sakurai described the process as wanting to make it feel like you're "constantly recruiting new fighters".
I don't think it's got to do with easier versus mode unlocks, I think it has to do with Spirits.
But we know they've said Incineroar + another character is missing.
I sincerely hope that's not the case. It's not like video game journalism isn't already a giant PR mouthpiece for the industry, for them to go even farther would be pretty bad.
Probably akin to SSE with Spirits in that someone's always showin up
I think you're overestimating how much "effort" they're actually putting into discrediting it. Most people just say "nah, it doesn't add up". The only reason it looks to people like they're trying is because people can't stop badgering them about real answers.
The idea of a hub world or something that lets you pick which game "world" to go to would actually be really cool, and let the player pick where they go first. That'd imply every franchise has its own levels and boss, though, besides the retro characters I guess
All this is making my head hurt. Either way we'll know something for sure in the coming days.
Hopefully they get rid of the match number requirements. Was irritating just killing myself in single stock to unlock.
Yup.
Like what I'm gonna have for lunch tomorrow.
Smash stuff? Who knows.
Hasn't the general website coverage of the leak be pretty par for the course? Stuff like imran's article was very well-reasoned and about the sort of thing you'd expect for any other big-looking leak. I don't really expect websites to be documenting every twist and turn rando forums users come with, as fun as it's been to follow
That's always sounded like the case to me. I don't know why people can't just keep it fun. These leaks are likely inaccurate, which is fine if you're just using them to talk about your dreams and anticipations for the game. I mean, ERA has made 10 threads for this game so far purely on hype.
But seeing some parts turn ugly because people are truly concerned about the veracity of "leaks" is perplexing to me. We're all gonna get the game soon and we'll be sure what's in it, then. In the meantime, people should have fun and speculate. But nobody's reputation should be on the line, here.
It's a game, folks. Not just the video game, but posting in this thread. Have fun with it.
I don't think we are going to get something akin to SSE in the Smash franchise ever again, I think it was implied that it was TONS of work and it impacted the dev team a lot.
I don't think so. I hope the game has a good intro this time though.
Same. I think the next one will be a massive shake up to the formula.
If they make a sequel and are still able to top this then Sakurai isn't even human. I'd be convinced
Incineroar+plus another leak bait are pretty much helping protect the surprise of the Grinch leak characters reveal
Okay, so... If the leak would be fake,
What characters are we expecting at that moment? I know we were stuck with the box theory before which led me to believe Incineroar-Shadow-Ken. Then we still had Vergeben with his Square rep and Minecraft content, now we also have Isaac rumored.
That it for now?

It's probably not impossible that the existing CG trailers were scenes from Spirits mode repurposed into trailers. Unlikely but possible.
That's the dream though...
Even if I loved it, there will be more than 75 characters, the task is just way too enormous.
Haven't several insiders here been open to the possibility that some characters in the leak could be playable, and it's just a matter of it not being all seven of them?
Wait, what happened to Mystics info? Someone called him out or did he get new info confirming he might be wrong?
I feel like there's still a good chance for him, but I think it's possible too that he was considered/in development for some time but didn't make the final cut. EVERY smash games has character data left over from cut characters.
I could see this being true to all newcomers with trailers with the obvious exception being Isabelle that would not fit in this criteria.
MysticDistance retracted their statements after being contacted by other sources. Isaac's off the table again.
The only characters "guaranteed" (and I stress the quotes) are Incineroar, Ken, and a potential Square rep.
I'm thinking fully interconnected world where each area is based on a diffeeent franchise. It would be interconnected less in the Metroid sense and more in the Souls sense with unlocking one way doors for shortcuts and such. So maybe you have the Mushroom Kingdom that branches to Dream Land and Hyrule, but it can also be accessed through a locked back door if you loop around the world through other areas.
Idk, just spitballin'
Are we only getting one more direct before the game? I hope it goes over online, event mode, and trophies.
Haven't they been using contractors for the CG work for the trailers?
I guess that many CG scenes would probably wind up being similar in cost to a full-length feature film though...
Yep, if we disregard the leak completely, we would back to that point, but just as any leak, keep in mind that it also there's the posibility of not being true. It is not that I don't believe reputable sources, but people tend to forget very often about the Gematsu situation (when they were fed outdated info).
Honestly anything that uses enemies and locations from actual Nintendo games like Melee Adventure and not vague blandness is fine by me
Ken and Isaac are as close to 100% as possible for me, with shadow and geno as possibilities.
I'll repeat myself until it gets burnt into existence. Spirits needs to be a free roaming, interconnected map that you explore and find treasures and power ups, and fight bosses. Game over when your character/team dies.
Smash Roguelike. Lay it on me fam.
