ITT rumors morons fell for
>>
desu at the time it was an elaborate ruse since no fake leak before it had gone so far into detail, I was skeptical at first but I accepted it eventually in the end.

But yeah feel better about yourself faggot, you probably got rused anyways

You're probably the same person that kept telling me you were screencaping my posts in those threads back a year ago for calling bullshit on it.

Last I heard from this guy was from that video where there was paranormal shit going on and he was crying cos he was so fucking scared, is he dead?

Gematsu was correct at time of writing, but not in the final product.
>>
>>322483317
>Chorus Men were datamined from the game

The leak contained all the worthwhile newcomers and Sakurai's butthurt about Chrom only further justifieds it.

Show the files then, faggot.

>>322484383
>>322484446
He's right though, you guys are morons. The files found that were on the Wii U were for a Rhythm Heaven character. So it could have been anyone. And Chrom was never planned, he was only briefly considered

Whatever makes you feel better.

The fact that people believed Gematsu after Rosalina is just baffling to me.

Remembering the Robin/Lucina reveal is still making me laugh like an idiot at just how badly it get decimated by that reveal though.
>>
>>322487291
I remember when the leaker the day before Robin's reveal said "to enjoy his good friend Shulk" after the Xenoblade creator retweeted Sakurai's announcement of the reveal. This makes me believe that he was riding the coattails. Now why would a leaker need to do that? He made the second part up to get his 15 seconds of fame. What most Gematsufags also seem to forget is how Rosalina & Duckhunt were the among the first planned
>>
>>322484446
What evidence? All I see are assumptions.
>>
>>322482265
Good taste, I have both him and Pit.
>>
>>322481092
Gotta admit, it did look legit.
>>
>>322487986
One more thing, someone with inside knowledge such as the leaker should know things like that right? He claimed that Shulk's reveal was changed at the last minute even though that would have been impossible because something about Robin & the Famitsu scans
>>
>>322488623
Monoeye is the real star though.
>>
>>322483590
Honestly, I think Roy is meant as a proxy for Chrom. If you compare Roy's revamped attacks to Chrom's attacks in Awakening, they're pretty damned similar, and Sakurai's comments seem to suggest that they did some work on him before scrapping him. Thus, in accordance with Sakurai's sentiment that the game and roster was complete upon release and anything else was extra, Roy was basically "So I didn't want to actually just put in another plain swordsman, but I had some moves left over and figured I might as well do something with them, take it if you want, don't if if you don't."

>>322482870
How's that dude supposed to go on any longer without the possibility of any further smash 4 speculations?
>>
>>322490590

NX is just around the corner I'm sure he'll milk smash NX rumors dry as well
>>
>>322490590
Well he just made a video talking about how Wolf could return next month as a surprise. But that's desperation at this point
>>
>>322490590
How popular was he prior to Smash 4's first trailer?
>>
>>322487291
To be fair, the entire first part of the leak (Pac-Man, Mii, Little Mac, Mega Man, Villager/"Animal Crossing guy" and WII FIT TRAINER) came out before Rosalina's reveal and was completely correct in the end. It's only the second part that was more iffy.

But even then, you could make the argument that the guy was only getting his info piece by piece, as in he didn't know about Rosalina with the first part and by the time the second part came out, she was already revealed and thus didn't need to be mentioned.
>>
>>322490590
Be a news channel
>>
>>322481959
except plenty of us were telling you guys that there was no gameplay footage and there were various discrepancies with the select screen footage such as lack of sound because it didn't want you to know that it didn't have xander or whoever saying "RAYMAN"

i mean it wasn't enough to disprove it but it was enough to make a highly confident guess that it was fake
>>
>>322491403
The first part of that leak also came out AFTER all those characters were revealed.
>>
>>322491403

Or, you know, he just made it all up and got lucky with WFT (everything else, even pacman once people knew namco was involved, wasn't hard to guess.)
>>
>>322491624
It's more likely that
>first half was legit info, leaker got it from E3
>second half was made up, trying to bank off his fame
>>
>>322491609
No, it came out before.

They were tipped the info a week before hand, but they were unable to confirm the validity of their source.

Sure they were. Truth is they made it up after the fact to boost hits to their site.

Who even heard of gematsu before the "leak"?
>>
>>322491403
Pac-Man, Little Mac, and especially Mega Man weren't that hard to guess though

i screencapped a guy saying shovel knight would never be in, seemed like a fucking no-brainer with the amiibo but oh well.

just like the squid inklings, yarn yoshi, chibi robo and toad right

That only proved further that he wouldn't be getting in

If he was in Smash, they'd just wait for his Smash amiibo to get released
>>
>>322493060
>>322493078
They listed SK as being compatible with Smash on the site, seemed really safe and predictable.

sakurai managed to subvert everyone's expectations for better or worse.

Wolf and SK seemed obvious to me, I am still surprised Wolf wasn't readded considering how much of Smash 4 is painted over Brawl assets.

The Rayman fake was made after Mewtwo's announcement as a DLC character, though.

>>322493306
It is actually pretty amazing how we actually ended up with more new characters than veterans. People were just expecting mostly veterans with one or two newcomers sprinkled in but ultimately we ended up with four full-fledged newcomers and only three veterans, and technically, the work put into Mewtwo was more equivalent to that of a new character considering they had to rebuild him from scratch completely (whereas Lucas had Brawl data they could use and they used Marth as a base for Roy).
>>
>>322493354
we knew about Mewtwo for a while, many people were making fake renders of him between when he was announced and when he came out though
>>
>>322484447
Underrated post.
>>
>>322487291
The funniest part is that the trailer was most likely not even directly aimed at the Gematsu leaker and it still hit home hard.
>>
>>322493306
>They listed SK as being compatible with Smash on the site, seemed really safe and predictable.

They listed the Chibi-Robo amiibo being compatible with Smash as well, and only five people cared. Yes, I was one of them.
