Either there's a -1 in there (whatever warrants that), or the programming of adding it up was somewhat screwed up in this showing for some reason. And this particular instance looks like they haven't been played much.

Now that we've had a legitimate leak, it's very easy for other people to release genuine looking images. I think the best policy is to label everything as fake until proven otherwise.

Might as well jump in and state my take on this thing. I actually like the atmosphere now - there're finally legitimate leaks that are worth speculating. My take is that this batch of images could be true. Well, I'm leaning towards it, anyway - not a 100% guarantee. Reasons: - This image shows the control descriptions in a wrong font. If it's a pic edited from scratch, it should try to stay true to known information to boast its authenticity. It didn't; so either whoever made this didn't pay attention, which is weird since everything else look authentic, or it's from a different instance of the game where they don't (or do) have the font ready. - The grid seems to be in Smash's general style. Fakes probably wouldn't come up with the description text ("How many times has Pikachu made Zelda KO?"), which is an unusual but grammatically correct way to say it whereas most people would casually use "KO'd" as a verb (even Melee did). It also wouldn't have specific, unimportant, unseen-before features like a customisable grid size. The arithmatic error is weird, but it's something both fakers and coders can make - by feeding manipulated save files that store contradicting information (if you've cheated before, you'd know), or by putting dummy numbers that aren't even programmed... Anyway, it's weird, but doesn't really rule out anything. - I've never seen these particular Wolf and Impa. Graned, they're small and thus easy to manipulate... ...But I agree with Leon. Just for the sake of playing safe, we should assume everything's fake, if only to avoid disappointment. And it's a question that will be answered in half a month's time anyway. |

It's just so fun to get pumped again. The legit leak was disappointing. I love that we can get back into speculation. Plus, the characters "leaked" are real interesting. Way more so than Dark Pit and Dr. Mario.

Either there's a -1 in there (whatever warrants that), or the programming of adding it up was somewhat screwed up in this showing for some reason. And this particular instance looks like they haven't been played much. I don't see how a minus number would be possible. It's counting KOs/Falls, how would you get a -1? By reviving/being revived by someone? There's also the fact that the 33 doesn't line up with the other numbers in Lucario's line, it's sitting a little higher in the box. But, if it's the same leaker as before, he did edit a spelling error into one of his previous leak screens to cast some doubt on it for some reason. Maybe he did that again. |

Another pic:  This one shows the annonced characters. Notice that Shulk and the guests are taking their own row. This could mean that the assumption of a rectangular character selection screen no longer holds. Now this is interesting. It seems that we don't even know the total number of characters. Could be 9*5*5+4, 10*5+4 or something entirely different. There could also be more guests...? Oh, and we're also getting some interesting names (Smash names, not system or Mii names). It's like Melee and Brawl, which have default selection of names that are full of references. In this screenshot, we have Koshian (red bean paste), Velvet (a type of fabric, and also the JP name of Panne), Chigasaki (place name), and Yoshi. Also, dang, a previous pic I pointed to mentioned "5 Monado modes", which turned out to be correct. Ugh... |

That one actually looks totally real and believable.

If thats actually real I would be pretty happy with the roster, sure, I would miss Lucas more than anything as well as the ice climbers, but I will get Ridley, Dixie and Mewtwo as a trade off. Edited: to make it clearer what I was referring. |

Its on the link under the picture, the link clearly says that Shulk will have 5 mode changes (which ended being true) it also says that Dixie, Ridley and Mewtwo will appear as characters. (as for the picture, tried to remove it an just quote the link on Nocturnal YL post but seems i have forgotten how to do that.

I'm really doubting that one is true.

It's legit gotten everything right so far. I see no reason to doubt it.

I see one: It does not feature Lucina. That leak was posted after Lucina was revealed, so it'd have no reason to mention her. |
