Well, two things are there to base off of.

1. It's a Capcom character, so that limits it to a bunch of series.
2. The LEVEL is not from the same game as the CHARACTER. That narrows it further. It's not going to be a side character that only appeared in one game. That would be missing an opportunity. It's got to be a main character that has several different versions.

Example: Jugei Yagyu from Onimusha, but the level is the Eiffel Tower from Onimusha 3, which Jubei wasn't in. (Samanoske was)
It's kinda tough to imagine a game where the main guy wouldn't be applied to a level from his own series. It vexes the mind to think of legends surrounding a character who would be so extrapolated to be able span multiple series and leave zero doubt.

Which is why a Castlevania character, which is a logical choice, would be in SSB.

Wait, did I just associate logic with rumors? :lol

Ah yes, Castlevania, one of the Capcom greats! They needed to make more copies of Aria of Sorrow.

Well, there's other things that Snake and Sonic have in common. They've both been in fighting games. Snake was in DMTVWF and Sonic was in Sonic Championship and Sonic Battle.

If we stick to CAPCOM characters in fighting games, that suggest possibly Viewtiful Joe (Red Hot Rumble), Ryu (MvC), Zero (Onimusha Blade Warriros), and Jill Valentine (MvC2).

Leon, the mansion from RE.

I'm getting tired of Capcom milking the Castlevania series as much as I've gotten tired of Konami milking MegaMan.

Still... Capcom doesn't have representation yet, so lets hope Simon's in.

I hope simon's in too. There is no rule against having 2 characters from same 3rd party developer.

 

[Holy Order Sol]

And what would be the point of the character then? What powers would he have?

Captain Falcon never had any in the F-Zero series and ended up with a full moveset.
I don't think they would have trouble creating a moveset with the bunch of moves VJ already has in his own games.

 

[farnham]

still no captain falcon confirmation makes me sad

 

[SantaC]

there are better capcom options than VJ

 

[rakka]

there are better capcom options than VJ

leon please

 

[Thunder Monkey]

I don't know.

Viewtiful Joe had 50% more Joe then other games.

 

[M3wThr33]

I don't know.

Viewtiful Joe had 50% more Joe then other games.

But is he 20 years old, in over 50 games and host to a series of successful TV shows?

 

[Thunder Monkey]

But is he 20 years old, in over 50 games and host to a series of successful TV shows?

Yeah, but think about the Joe percentage mathematically.

That's a lot of Joe.

 

[M3wThr33]

I'd rather have Alistor.

People... Castlevania was made by Konami >_>

This is so funny ^^

Alright, he told me to take down the information and to stop fucking leaking.
So unfortunately there won't be any more updates from here.

The Wiki can be altered you know. Just someone playing a joke on Wiki users. Everyone knows Castlevania has been a staple of Capcom, it rounds out their lineup along with Silent Hill, and Metal Gear Solid.

Aw come on

Tell me in a pm. I won't tell anybody!

 

[The Hermit]

So, I know this guy who is a translator for the Uk version of the dojo and this is what he told me:


That there will be an detailed explanation of the power up system in SSE this week,
he don't have the exact date since they translated the updates in a groups of 5, and yes it was translated several months ago

If this prediction of his turns out true I'll add some of the other stuff he said( crazy stuff)

So edit Op and add me as a prophet.

Damn he was right...

 

[Zee_truly evil]

after all these years i still don't know how this capcom = castlevania thing started

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Probably from a noobish guy.

A lot of great memes seem to come from someone else's failure.

Yeah, you forgot that people from Nintendo read this forum. Mentioning where you're source came from was a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG nono.

 

[HK-47]

Really?

Indeed though CV has retained higher quality than MM

 

[ratcliffja]

Alright, I'll just ask for one more piece of information from your source before you have to stop. Can you at least give a full roster with detailed explanation of all of their moves and final smashes? I don't think that's too much to ask.

 

[Zeppu]

I was refering to:

Capcom Castlevania
Konami MegaMan

 

[HK-47]

I was refering to:

Yeah Konami and Capcom make Mega Man and Castlevania...so?

 

[Zeppu]

Yeah Konami and Capcom make Mega Man and Castlevania...so?

konami makes castlevania and capcom makes mega man not vice versa.

 

[HK-47]

konami makes castlevania and capcom makes mega man not vice versa.

.?

 

[ShockingAlberto]

konami makes castlevania and capcom makes mega man not vice versa.

Source?

 

[Holy Order Sol]

the fuck you say

hides...

Wait what is going on here :lol one would think a GAFfer knows what company makes what games...

i'm not a gaffer. I'm a n00b.

 

[Crushed]

To everyone confused in here, "Capcom makes Castlevania" is a joke spawning from a thread in which a user demanded that Capcom produce more copies of Dawn of Sorrow.

 

[Cosmonaut X]

Wait what is going on here :lol one would think a GAFfer knows what company makes what games...

One might even think a GAFer would recognise a long-running GAF joke...

 

[SantaC]

leon please

yeah imagine Leon Kennedy!

The joke is older than so

Heh, you're probably better off for it, to be honest ;-)

 

[TreIII]

Who DOESN'T read neoGAF, at this rate?

But seriously...too bad. Our one credible source, besides perhaps Serebii, and Nintendo sent their mini-Ninjis to shut the game down before it could even get started. :lol

 

[DDayton]

Wakka wakka wakka wakka.

Please.

Anything from GameFAQs (or 2chan, for that matter) is a guaranteed fake for me, but anyway,

Spoiler

Slime?, Stanley? Who is that to begin with?

I don't believe this for a second. If the Japanese guide has leaked we'll be overrun by spoilers anyway, but I won't bet on it...

 

[Firestorm]

I say fake.

And uh oh slime argument incoming.
