I think Mach Rider is the first step toward ST Falcon. We're just being primed so we're ready for the most important character the franchise has ever had.
..........too big.

Let's face it, you'd pretty much have to leave the internet if you don't want to know. People blab about it everywhere.
Yeah it does seem like that, but the actual leak itself.... how is it faked? Like it all lines up so perfectlyMy opinion is that it may have some truth to it, but I don't believe the entire thing to be accurate. Seems like a wish list & could have used that 4chan rumor as a guideline.
oh damn, I completely forgot. Blog theory redeemed.long story short there's a pattern in how the blog handles the blogposts by highlighting a certain number of characters every week and people are calculating this weekly to determinate that if the pattern keep its way there should be 6-8 characters left to announce

The leak is supposedly on a promotional paper wristband. OK lets go with that for a moment. It's safe to assume these wristbands are to be actually used for a public event. What events are there between now and Dec 7? Actually for this to be real it would have to be between the Direct that reveals all these characters and Dec 7. So we still have all of November and a tiny bit of October and December. The only major event left according to Nintendos official website (https://smashbros.nintendo.com/events/) are:
1. Wendys college tailgate tour - ongoing right now with E3 build
2. Enthusiast Gaming Live Expo - done, E3 build
3. TBS Event Smash Invitational to be aired in November....could this be the event where these wristbands would be used?

"ELEAGUE has clarified what exactly November's Nintendo tie-in will entail. The Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018 will be a three-part series airing footage of the E3 2018 Smash Invitational, starting on November 16. While there is no new tournament being held, ELEAGUE will air previously-unseen footage from E3's tournament exclusively on TBS."
OK so if these were indeed wristbands commissioned by Bamco and Bamco went out of their way to provide this company with the final banner not an existing banner, they would need to be used when exactly? The Nintendo site says 'more events' so are we to believe there will be another event that isn't announced that takes place between final reveal and release date and THAT is when these arm bands would be used? Seems incredibly unlikely to me. Are they for midnight launches? MAAAAYYYBEEE, but I think thats a stretch. Paper wristbands are almost always used in some sort of admission scenario.

Yes. I meant out of the blue for me. Oh well.Well if you don't know who he is, you can't really expect him. Wouldn't that count as "out of the blue"?
He's a retro character from the NES era.

It goes beyond fun project on the side when it implicates an entire marketing firm and a specific employee.I wouldn't call this a leak. It's a rumor. For all we know they did this as a fun project and saw the 4chan character list.
LMAOFess up if you have something of value to say. Otherwise nobody cares about your "sources" that probably don't exist.
It's clearly not a wristband. It's a mockup for a circular cardboard store display designed to placed on top of a high center display or hang from a ceiling.
The problem is that Sakurai said explicitly that every characters would be revealed before the release
Sure, but if we assume this has every character and isn't incomplete i don't see why that matters?Because Sakurai said every fighter would be revealed before launch.
It also wasn't revealed in a way that would make it seem like it's supposed to be a fun project, or even that it's supposed to be a leak. It was incidental.It goes beyond fun project on the side when it implicates an entire marketing firm and a specific employee.
Because Sakurai said every fighter would be revealed before launch.
it'll be the best game he's ever been in that has mario in itIf Geno is in this game it officially becomes the greatest fighting game of all time
They're not going to reveal the characters through the wristband.Because Sakurai said every fighter would be revealed before launch.
I suppose so. But the company, the employee being legit, having to rearrange the entire newcomer poster and draw a blank version of it, come up with entirely new poses/renders for the seven characters - this would be a legendary fake.I wouldn't call this a leak. It's a rumor. For all we know they did this as a fun project and saw the 4chan character list.
What press event?

If it's fake what reason would they have to fire him?Fake or not this dude is losing his job too. Hes not trustworthy.

I'm happy with the game's roster regardless, and if the leak is fake at least it made me excited to speculate again but still.... it hasn't added up so perfectly like this in a while
