Sometimes just asking the people behind your favorite games can actually get you results if you're to believe Killer Chris on the nsider2 forums. He had sent a tweet to Sakurai in Japanese roughly translating to "Be sure to include Geno from Super Mario RPG, Isaac from Golden Sun and Mega Man."

To his surprise, Sakurai responded with a short and simple response. "2 out of 3". The tweet was quickly deleted afterwards, but the message is out there now. Which two does he mean? We just might found out in two weeks when E3 finally arrives! You can see the deleted tweet below.

Hello, Cookie_Aroma from GameFAQS here. I'm surprised nobody else has debunked this Twitter post yet. The person who made up this tweet made one little mistake (actually two as Yani pointed out). Take a look at the screen capture that the person who saw the tweet took:

Let's compare that to Sakurai's Twitter page now:

Do you see it yet? See the Tweets count in the upper-right-hand corner? It reads "8807 Tweets" for both images. This is the problem. The tweet with the 2 of 3 message should say 8808 tweets if it was actually legitimate. That coupled with the fact that the only witnesses to this tweet were 2 people from the same board (And as Yani pointed out, the tweet says expand instead of view conversation), I'm positive this is a fake.

This kind of thing is actually very easy to photoshop (or gimp in my case). See?

There some guy asks Sakurai about the new characters on Smash Bros. He asks if Geno from SM RPG, Isaac from GS or Megaman is going to be in the game. Moments later, Sakurai responds "2 of 3".

So guys, who are the 2 that are going to be in the game?
