The contest's deadline is Sunday night. :lol

Edited: OH, you want me to extend SmashGAF chatroom for other nintendoGAF. Sure, but they already have their own room but I forget where it was. I thought you were asking me to post prediction contest link in NintendoGAF IRC. My bad, I'm sorry for misunderstanding.

I'll take a link to the chatroom too, please. Don't think I'll use it during the Direct but I'll probably show up afterwards

The only bad news about E3 is it'll be like the first Nintendo Direct for X/Y...probably months without any information, but probably even a bigger dry period.

Probably. At least, it will give us something to start with and we can start with that. Hopefully they would announce the release date of Dojo. :p

I wonder if Smash 4 will still have as many trophies and such as Melee and Brawl? I hope so, but most of them were just assets from other games. I'm wondering if the move to HD will make them hesitant to re-use a bunch of GC/Wii models.

Well, they'll have trophies with the new Smash's own assets too, like usual, so it's not like we'd only have last gen models. They did make many trophy-only models in Melee though, it was Brawl that mostly went with recycled assets for things that weren't in Smash Bros itself. Still, making a bunch of new models just for trophies is pretty much a waste of resources, I think. At this point, if they want to make extra models, they should be used for alternate costumes (which could have their own trophies), not just trophies themselves...

Do we have any more blatantly fake leaks to gloss over recently? Could do with something to occupy the 5 day wait we still have
besides boring regular and contract work

While I see where you're coming from, Melee was still able to have nearly 300 trophies made up of mostly original, hi-polygon models not seen anywhere else in the game. Maybe if SSB4 did that rather than Brawl only using pre-existing assets (which are never as fun to look at) they could justify the extra effort by all of those new models being be worked into stages/AT's/enemies/bosses for the rest of the game? Especially franchises like Wario and Mother which got nearly nothing in terms of trophies because their games are purely 2D affairs with nothing to pull from (besides World which Brawl pretends doesn't exist).

Cool I'll just start researching the significance of potato-based cooking in relation to Sakurai to deduce the final roster and by the time I wake up from my stupor it'll be Tuesday morning and a few minutes before the Direct starts!

Maturity, bitches.
Super Cash Bros U to be F2P. Mario and Battlefield will be free. Everything else if behind a paywall. This includes the option to press Start to play.

300 was the total trophy count, no? That includes things like the Adventure and All Star trophies, which were just the in-game models of the characters. Every item also had its own trophy, reusing the in game model most of the time, and then there were the Pokemon... But, yes, there were still many original trophies not seen anywhere else in the game or pulled from other games, including one classic model for every playable character, different from the ones actually used in game.

I saw some posted on /v/ and such recently, there were some interesting rumors I read, although the amount of them and the variation made it impossible to actually take any of them serious. Some I recall:

- Baby Mario riding Yoshi would be a reveal, and would be counted as a new character of sorts akin to ZSS. I actually think this would be cool, if for nothing more than to make Yoshi more visually interesting.

- Tharja from Fire Emblem Awakening. I see this one a lot. She's supes popular and all, but Fire Emblem has so many character it'd be weird for them to choose a non-Lord imo.

- Calamity was one title I saw brought up a lot. Another was Full Force, the Japanese title being IV (as in four). The Japanese titles all use roman letters (DX and X), so going to IV doesn't seem that weird to be honest...I meant X sounds less than DX.

- Retro's New IP was "Beat All", featuring a Kung-Fu Kabuto that would debut in the Smash trailer...I think this is bunk, but I think it'd be neat if they reveal Retro's New game and then reveal the star of the game to be in Smash 4, like a Roy-type deal.

- Most of the rumors seem to place the Wii U Version over the 3DS, some claiming the latter won't show.

Did we ever have any official pre-Brawl leaks? I don't mean the roster leak before Brawl was released, but rumors before the debut trailer that came true? Did anyone mention Pit being brought back, for example?

I don't think we did for Pre-Brawl leaks. That's why Snake debut was hugely shocking NEWS EVER!
