Super Smash Bros for 3DS: New Characters Video LEAKED! (SPOILERS)

my uncle's roommate who works for Nintendo and is friends with Miyamoto told me this is true and he also says you can get the Mew hidden under the truck if you beat all eight gym leaders with only Pikachu.

The trick is it only works on Pokemon Yellow because you have to transfer your Pikachu to Pokemon Stadium and beat that with him too so that he can learn surf since you aren't allowed to use any pokemon other than Pikachu through out the entire Pokemon Yellow game.

He has provided his evidence to the mods. If he's still here that means it's legit.

After thinking about it and hearing thoughts from others.
I'm going to remove the video that contains sound.
I appologize for those that didn't get a chance to no see/hear it.
You're just gonna have to find another source and raise the volume on it yourself.
You have 10 minutes
It will be gone at X:17

Ugh, as much as I love the Smash roster the clones really kill it for me.

If they can't come up with distinguishing features, they shouldn't bother putting characters like Falco in the game.

They are tossed in because they need to fill up space or they have enough time to throw in a couple clones but not enough time to make an entire new character.
 
What if the leaker puts the game code online and releases it

Boom

He's got the gold copy :p
I doubt he got sued, just fired , unless its in his contract


But told you guys , he did it to be first , internet fame

I'd rather the empty space. Or even better, have them use all of the time they were going to use on the clones to give Ganondorf a new moveset. I'm sure the time spent on Toon Link, Falco, Lucina, Dr. Mario, and Dark Pit combined would have been enough.

What's the bloody point in having skins and customization special moves if you're just going to flood the game with clones?

Characters like Dr. Mario and Dark Pit should be skins for Mario and Pit, respectively, that have altered special moves. Because that's what they are. Captain Falcon should have had a Black Shadow skin with altered special moves, taking Ganondorf's moveset. And Ganondorf should have gotten the proper character treatment and a sword, goddammit.

I want Dr. Mario if only to have the original Mario moveset / Docs Melee one. Screw FLUDD.

Fuck the sword, give him energy projectiles and a trident.

He hardly uses his sword and when he does it looks so slow and sloppy, No way in hell that's final.
He changed his Monado mode at least once during the footage. I can't recall which mode it was but a speed or evasion buff could make his moves twitchier.

Has Smash ever had a stance dancer? Shulk would fit in nicely which goes along well with the more specialised/unique roles this game has.

Ganon in Brawl felt different enough to me than Falcon so I don't really see the issue. Dr. Mario and Dark Pit are probably going to be more clonelike than Ganondorf. And there's Lucina....
 
How can a grown adult be so stupid? If you leak shit, even to one person, you're gonna get caught, fired and sued.

Why would somebody gamble with their career like that?

Or maybe those are the best characters to have custom moves for because you can further differentiate the two source characters.

Why is this so hard to understand, they are skins, they were just given some tweaks and split out as their own character slot. They didn't magically take the place of whatever character you wanted in the roster and they weren't the reason ganondorf doesn't have a new moveset. It is something all fighting games and games with large rosters constantly employ because it's an easy way to get a few extra characters in there with less work. It is more rather than less

Given that character moves can be changed, is it really too much to assume that it's POSSIBLE Ganondorf has an alternate sword-based move?

Sorry, exactly for what reason?

Being very similar to the characters they're cloned from in physical characteristics (to reuse skeletons, animations, in some cases whole models) but with enough aesthetic and slight mechanical differences to still make for a unique playable character?

It's not like they sat down and said "No, I'm not feeling Ridley. Lets devote all the resources we would used on him to make Dark Pit." The reality is that time is limited and Dark Pit is a character they could add when they've got so much of Pit already finished that they can use as a base. They still have to put time into it, but it's not nearly as much as if they had made a whole new character from scratch.

Almost every fighting game has clones, of some sort. Time is limited and big rosters look good. Clones can still be fun and have enough supporters to have reasons to exist, just look at how many people preferred Dr. Mario in Melee when his gameplay differences exclusively came down to minutiae! Nobody's doing it to spite you, and nobody at Namco is thinking that there's really nothing else for Ganondorf to be doing but imitating Falcon. It's never a case of "Dr. Mario or K. Rool," it's "Dr. Mario or nothing".

Is it confirmed that the DLC characters are a lie?
I admit, Chorus Men sounds even crazier than Duck Hunt dog. I mean there are three of them. Or I'd assume there would be. But I'd also assume Bowser Jr. Wouldn't fight in a clown head so yeah.
The others sound reasonable enough, although i have my doubts about Snake.

Y'all remember that Luigi is a clone character too, right? In OG Smash he was almost identical to Mario and in Melee his only huge difference was his side smash. Ganondorf was easily just as different from Capt. Falcon as Luigi was from Mario, so why all the hate?

I'm majorly looking forward to seeing what Dr. Mario's moveset is like---if it's basically Melee Mario (Spinning down special, cape side special, same passive properties as Mario) then I'll be thrilled. Dark Pit could be interesting as long as at least one or two of his specials are different. The only clone I really have an issue with is Toon Link because he's almost identical to Link. If they gave Falco and Toon Link different final smashes and one totally different special each it would be perfect.

I saw three Monado arts being used during that bit of footage. Except, they aren't buffs like they are in the game, but "modes" that Shulk is cycling through. That's what this leaker says in regards to them, anyways:

ssb-originalleak2mk6x.jpg

"Shulk has like 5 different mode swaps"

That fits, because we didn't see him using any of the physical Monado Arts (Buster, Cyclone, and Eater) during the fight, so that leaves us with the five Monado Arts that affect his status (Enchant, Shield, Speed, Purge, and Armor). Now, don't quote me on this, but I think I saw him cycle through three kanji; the first two I can't make out for sure, but the last one was definitely 疾 (shitsu, Monado Speed). What's more, in Xenoblade, the light of Monado's beam changes depending on the Art being used.

Buster: Blue
Enchant: Violet
Shield: Yellow
Speed: Light blue
Purge: Green
Armour: Orange
Cyclone: White
Eater: Black

Here, I can't tell if that happens with the blade's beam, but the kanji are definitely changing colors, at the very least. First, we had purple (Enchant), then green (Purge), and finally, light blue (Speed).

That's what I saw, anyways. All that aside, I can't wait to get my hands on him; sounds like he's going to be incredibly versatile.

Yeah we joke about that, lol. I've got another friend who is a tester, and we always blame everything on him even if it doesn't make sense.

"Why didn't you see this shit when you tested it? Jesus man, you fucked up."
Man, I like Dr. Mario way better than vanilla Mario, so this is just great.
 
From the main thread

PALUTENAGATE CONTINUES

Vaanrose (one of the original leakers of the ONE TRUE LEAK), said that MFL did NOT create the fake Palutena image, and that his friend did. The Palutena faker gave them to MFL in order to try to encourage him to share more info about his source.
