You mean the image that was put on the E3 3DS? If that's what you meant you must be confused, as the leak doesn't actually show a 3DS. Anyways, this leak is from a supposed Nintendo of America employee, do with that info as you wish.
SUPPOSED? you mean they're not sure?

Sorry I worded that wrong, haha I meant alleged.
 
I'm glad we debunked that leak very quickly, but don't go posting non-spoilered rosters unless you're absolutely sure it's fake okay? I want to have at least thirty minutes to attempt to do the job I promised to do...

Oh and also this was pointed out:

If you'll notice in the top of the picture it states both For Glory mode and the Spirit Train stage. Interesting. I wonder how that'll work?

I still don't see how minor UI debunks a leak?

isnt the spirit train the one from Spirit Tracks?
Yeah, it's just interesting to think of how it'll work in For Glory mode. (Where there's supposed to be a singular flat stage)
 
The funny thing is, as we get closer to the Japanese release, we honestly won't know what's real and what's fake unless we get hard video evidence.
And even then, that can be faked too.
 
what would duck hunt dog even DO?

Well fangame Smash Bros. Crusade came up w/ a moveset for him if you really need an example: http://projectcrusade.wikia.com/wiki/Duck_Hunt_Dog

I really am conflicted on this. I want it to be real for Shulk and Dark Pit at least but no Ice Climbers or Wolf but Dr. Mario returns as something other than a costume? And Bowser Jr. instead of King K. Rool or at least a character from a franchise that's a little low on representation?

Yeah I don't know what to think about this.

EDIT: Damn guys, slow down so I can read all the posts. So from what I gathered, this was confirmed fake, right? (Still want Shulk and Dark Pit as well as K. Rool)

The For Glory Spirits Track stage? I'm pretty sure that picture was from the direct. Hold on a minute.

Dr. Mario struck me as odd, but I wouldn't put it past Sakurai to be like, 'I made his gameplay different to Mario, so I gave him his own slot.'



That looks like a mockup with random models.

The floating train in space was just a joke picture. The one where it lists it at the top of the screen is what I'm looking for.
 
I found it. At the 7:44 mark of the E3 direct, or here, is where the picture of the Spirit Train For Glory mode is.

Also does that weird graph team thing at about 7:37 in the video have colors that match with the "leak" or is it just me?
 
The menus are completely in english, I'd like to add to the argument against why Bowser is called Bowser and not Koopa.

Probably because it's the english version?
 
That Ness render is so beautiful.

Also last night I had a dream about Ridley being revealed as an Assist Trophy. Crazy stuff.

Yeah no shit, which is why he'd be called Bowser and not Koopa.
 
And how would the English Version be even close to being done, let alone in a leakable state a full month and a half before it's English release, and a month before the Japanese release?
Simply doens't make sense.
 
I'm not taking any side on this, but I am asking why there are no Mii's on it? Is it intended to be a "With Everyone" thing and the faker messed up a bit? It's a good looking fake, like those fakes about Hsien-Ko and Sentinel in Marvel vs Capcom 3, hah!

In one of the leaked pictures it's a separate menu for miis.

Sorry, I misinterpreted what you said. My bad.

But why are they not able to be chosen in a CPU fight?

They're turned off if Customization are off IIRC. It's probably for the same reason.

So if Customizations are off they just remove characters instead of keeping them, even though there are basic Mii's that can be used (More than likely)
 
I'm just wondering how Dark Pit would play differently, I haven't played Uprising, anyone think he'd use unused weapons and stuff?
 
Dark Pit is literally the exact same as Pit, same body, same stats, same abilities, everything.
The only difference he has is that he has indefinite Power of Flight.
And even then, he LOSES THAT at the end of the game!
The only way he could be different is if he used other waepons from KI:U
he'll be a premium alt costume, if anything

lol, people arguing over this leak. There are a ton of reasons why it's obviously fake, but first let's start with the fact that it's a Wii U version leak instead of a 3DS version leak. So yea.

I also just realized that Pit could use other KI:U weapons as custom movesets.
There is literally no way Dark Pit would be a standalone clone unless Sakurai had something insane and cool in mind for him

Okay let me correct myself, it includes Wii U images.

Unless if you think this is running on a 3DS, lol. Point is, nothing big is going to be leaking for the Wii U version this early. Unless something looks extremely convincing assume all Wii U leaks are fake.
 
-snipped-
you seem to be getting way more upset than usual for a big mish mash fighter.

this doesn't even have any direct relation to the actual storyline in Metroid. it's just a fun little mishmash of stuff that these Nintendo characters are known for.

That's just a fucking render, the official artwork of the characer. Diddy Kong's render is just to the goddamn left.

I think you're a bit confused, they use the same renders for both versions in the character select ^~ ^.

I'm upset not because of the response of him liking the costume, but the fact that because of my response apparently I consider athletic women to be "sluts".

Like the costume all you want, don't call me a slut shamer because I don't.
well then shame on those people. you should have every right to not like it. disagreeing with someone's opinion is one thing but putting words in their mouth is another story.

Yea it's a render. It's the high quality render taken directly from the site. Meaning it's not the low quality 3DS version. So if it's real, it's the Wii U version.....but it's not, so this is a silly argument.
 
Do not put words into my mouth. I never once did call her a slut and I will never use such a word in general. The fact you are accusing me of even thinking such things is ridiculous and I will not stand for this bullshit.

Samus isn't an MMA fighter, She's a bounty hunter with weapons. Wearing rocket heels, using fire arms and highly dangerous electrical weapons with exposed skin isn't intelligent, there is a reason soldiers don't do it. If she had little mac's profession I would feel otherwise, however she has never engaged in combat in this costume, which makes it seem horribly out of place seeing as the games she is from take a more serious approach.

This isn't a fucking boxing ring, she is fighting monsters and aliens trying to kill her. Showing me pictures of athletic women going for a jog has nothing to do with Samus.

Sorry I'm not allowed to not like a costume for personal reasons. Apparently it constitutes to me calling athletic women "sluts".
I never said you said "slut" I was just exaggerating my point but you're acting like she walking around in her "underwear" as if its an inappropriate outfit. but why do you never complain about female athletes outfits being inappropriate? btw aren't you a skullgirls fan?
Also if you knew Samus' backstory you'd know that she was given Chozo DNA and trained by them in combat so she is not weak like normal humans or mma fighters...she's better.

Meaning she actually knows how to fight, she doesn't ONLY use weapons.
 
what if they made up for it by giving samus some mad rapping skills
drop a beat and drop a heel on yo ass
 
It was an awful and somewhat offensive way to exaggerate your point and yes I am a Skullgirls fan. I know all of those things, it doesn't change the fact that I don't really like the costume.

I'm not trying to stop you from liking it though, the whole point of the original post was just saying that it's perfectly okay to dislike a certain feature in a game and that in doing so it doesn't make you a complainer or someone who wants to burn Nintendo to the ground. I was giving my reasons for disliking it as a follow up, discussing how I feel about it.

Being critical and analyzing of certain features and design choices in games is part of what makes them so interesting to me. My favorite games have plenty things I dislike or don't approve of, doesn't mean I hate them for it, but it gives me something to think about and something to discuss with friends. I like to see games as an art form of sorts, so I feel criticism and hearing every form of it from different viewpoints should always be welcome.

So seriously, it's okay if you enjoy the costume, I'm not trying to take it away from you and I don't harbor any ill feelings towards those that like it, I have plenty of friends that enjoy it.

I got angry and lashed out a bit when I was joked about being a slut shamer. If any of my anger caused any problems please let me know what it was so I can learn from it and give my apologies.
Well...my apologies for over exaggerating the point I was trying to make. I understand that thats your opinion and you don't have to change it but I just thought the reasoning behind it (comparing it to underwear) was faulty...thats all.
