Thing I saw on tumblr said:
I choose to believe that captain falcon single-handedly laying waste to the kingdom is one of the canon alt timelines in fire emblem awakening
"why does everyone only move one at a time and stand completely still for several minutes in a row? this will be easy"

Does Captain Falcon look like he has some asian in him now to anyone else? It would be pretty cool if he did.


Because "Douglas" is the most Asian name, dontcha know

Besides, we already know what his actual face looks like. And yeah, it's canon, cause it apparently appears in FZero X.

the anime isn't canon
it doesn't count
he's not even Douglas Falcon there
he's
Bart Lemming
Anime falcon should be called Captain Lemming
 
So now we all know what Captain Falcon was doing while everyone was worried about him returning.

He was obviously terrorizing Ylisse with his Falcon Punches.

To discount the leak immediately is ignorant people. The leak still got 8/11 so far, it's not like it's doing badly. Let's also note that it got WFT, updated the Mii prediction to "Mii fighters" the day before they were revealed as Mii Fighters, and called Greninja "pokemon from X and Y", when it was later confirmed that Sakurai and team originally were planning to put in a pokemon from XY, but weren't sure which one.

It's far too accurate to just throw up our hands and say everything here is fake. I'm thrilled to see that Chrom is not in and better Fire Emblem representation is in in his stead, but there is still an animated Chrom model in the game, so there's a pretty big opportunity for making an incorrect assumption that he's in the game for the leaker.

As for Shulk, I'm still expecing he's in and would count on him making it even without the leak.

As for Chorus Men, I don't know. There seems to be a bit of Rhythm Heaven representation in the game, so who knows. Maybe they are in.

Also note, we're 2 months from release. At most there's only 2 or 3 new character trailers left. 2 months to show off all the remaining trailers, and we've gone from one trailer every 2 months to a trailer a month, so it's still pretty likely there are only two characters left: Shulk and Chorus Men. We'll see.

Ike's flames are now blue! We canon now!

You have no idea how happy this will make one of my friends.
 
Yeah, I'm still holding onto PARTS of the Gematsu Leak, not all of it.
Some stuff is clearly outdated, and some other stuff is also clearly kept hidden from the leaker.

As I said before, there's still strong evidence for both Shulk, and Chorus Men, so I wouldn't count them out just yet.

Wait, that's the Pilotwings stage. Arwing AT confirmed?

Stage intros. Captain Falcon gets out of the Blue Falcon, Fox flies in.

Well, okay, adoption's a thing. But I'm seriously getting some old japanese fighting movie hero vibes from our old captain.
There's just something about his facial expressions this time around
screen-5.jpg

that make it seem like he's of asian descent

Though I guess it could be his skin tone

Eh, I sort of feel what you're saying.

This was his face in Brawl

And I think the thinner face and different skin tone are what do it.
 
Checking out Smash Boards.
Expecting a fucking wasteland.

It's not that bad, people are freaking out over Sal Romano (as they should)
The Shulk thread is surprisingly still holding hope and are being good sports, at least.

he looks like Hiroshi Fujioka. Oh dear god. Let captain falcon be modeled after Hiroshi Fujioka!

I'm seeing a lot of "Why is there so many characters for such a small series"

Because 13-going-on-14 games is small for an RPG, amiright

It's more like "why does this game have so many characters but this other game I want arbitrary characters from not? Not fair!!!"
 
I'm pretty sure a large chunk of the FE haters are the Mother/Earthbound Crowd who are still begging for Ness to get confirmed even though he's a Shoe-In
 
Ruin said:
FE's only got three characters
That's no different than Kirby, really
I dunno about three. Lucina's got her own animations in addition to fighting like Marth. Normally, alt costumes don't have unique animations, so I'm leaning towards her being a separate character from Marth.
 
They sure made her look like one 9_9
(also I didn't really see any unique animations there. They all looked like Marth to me)
 
The Chrom supporters are heartbroken though, kinda sad to watch

The site also lists Lucina as separate, so, I think she might be a New-Age Roy.

She has a special taunt.
And something with her mask.
