PacMan Revealed for Smash. Bros

Great news, but no clue why the hell they decided to wait 30 minutes after the livestreamed tourney to show him off. Cool to see a Mr. G&W confirmation too.

No seriously is that Wolf thing true? D:
They're confused, they're probably thinking about Sal's latest leak which mentioned Lucas is (probably) getting cut. Nothing's been hinted at one way or the other with the extra SF reps.

Fox did had a black alt with a very Wolfy color scheme
He had that alt in Brawl as well!

Anything else will be disappointment now

Mii fighters cannot be used in non-friend matches when online.

What a lazy, half assed way to announce this, Nintendo. Really? This should have been done at the tournament.

Fuck me.
 
Join me in the "why the fuck did they not unveil this earlier" camp, specifically instead of Palutena at the end of the Digital Event. How does she have priority over fucking PAC-MAN?!

Anyway, I will be the only person on Earth to say this, but I hope he's based on the new TV show Pac, voiced by Erin Matthews, complete with Betrayus as an Assist Trophy voiced by Sam Vincent. Would rock so hard.

Of course, the show is loaded with my fav local Canadian voice actors that I grew up watching and hearing. I mean fucking CHEETOR is Blinky!

Are you guys talking about the Gematsu leak? I wouldn't get your hopes up. Pac-Man was a safe bet considering who was backing it up. Palutena isn't much of a stretch either. I'd say that the only one on that list that wasn't a safe bet would be Chorus Men.

Wii Fit Trainer? The name "Mii Fighter"? Dude is 100% legit.

Eh. I hope he has a good style at least. Looks like the chance Bayonetta will be included is smaller than ever.

What leaks list is this?
Sal is the one who called the following before any of them were revealed.

Round 1 (Pre-E3 2013): "Animal Crossing Guy" (Villager), Wii Fit Trainer, Mega Man, Pac-Man, Mii (Mii Fighters), Little Mac

Round 2 (Pre-Smash Direct): Chrom, Palutena, Shulk, Chorus Men from Rhythm Heaven, "Pokémon from X & Y" (Greninja)

Round 3 (Pre-E3 2014): Possible Lucas Removal, Character DLC is a thing

Pac-Man, Sonic and Mario in one game. My 8 year old self would have fainted. My 34 year old self just gives a satisfied nod.

The guy had Wii Fit Trainer, Villager and Mega Man in his first list of six.

He was the -only- person to name Wii Fit Trainer.

The list is legit.
 
It's worth remembering that in Brawl, six newcomers were hidden as unlockables (Lucario, Snake, ROB, Sonic, Toon Link, Wolf) and only two, Snake and Sonic, were known before release. The Gematsu leak may well be on the money, but it isn't necessarily exhaustive and complete. If we take it as correct, the only characters presently unaccounted for are Shulk, Chrom, and the Chorus Men, and even if all three are concealed until the release of the game, that does seem on the low side for surprises, especially if all the named returning veterans apart from Luigi are available from the start. So I am hesitant to rule out any inclusion that has not been explicitly named.

Why do people have so much faith in this? Everyone was predicting Palutena since the game was announced (And especially after the leak that), while his Pokemon "prediction" didn't even name which Pokemon was in. Did anyone even confirm that was the same person?

That first prediction was actually unusual and people noticed when it was right. The second one is a laundry list of fan favorites with only one particularly unusual pick, and that pick hasn't been confirmed yet.

Round-table live-blogs confirmed he's using the World design but transforms into 8-bit for some attacks

That's not his World design, though. Edit: Sorry, thought you were the one who posted the image. But yeah, that's supposedly not the model.
