I've spent the past few hours alternating between excitement about playing as the Duck Hunt dog, and disappointment that his name is going to be "Duck Hunt."

Also I'm going to kick Nintendo's rear end for including Dark Pit but not Dark Samus.

Smash is not actually a real game after all and everything has been a Kojima-esque mindfuck culminating in the release of Mach Rider II.

When I buy a new avatar, if whoever is paying all the money for these wants to put Samus back, please do include Dixie with the Duck Hunt dog, as I have always wanted her to be in the Smashed Brother games. Thanks in advance, mysterious benefactor.

Until there's video/photo evidence for the text-only leaks you can't really fault anyone for not wanting to get their hopes up. The smashboards leak looks pretty legit, but so did the gematsu(sp?) stuff until we got the Fire Emblem trailer thing, at which point it became ~UNDENIABLY FALSE~ and you had to be some kind of moron to have believed in it.

Actually, what was the original gematsu leak? Does any of the recent stuff reinforce or deconfirm it more?

Wow, that leak does look fairly convincing, especially the animations and the movements. It also proves kinda disappointing for me because the character choices are a bit.. Lackluster in my opinion(Bowser Jr. and Dark Pit?!). Wolf as supposed DLC(at least R.O.B. makes it in natively. Are we even sure character DLC is a sure thing this time around? Nintendo's MO is missing the boat hard as far as online goes, and I don't think there's been any official announcement regarding it. Just vague "we'll think about it" statements). I'll admit the shame, I actually wanted Krystal as more of a brawler-esque staff user(though Palutena's inclusion pretty much killed that dead the moment of announcement, which is why I wasn't keen on her being made real). Sure, I've still got several characters I'm interested in so this is firstworldproblems.txt but aside from Mega Man I've got about zero interest in the newcomers(in either the leaks or what's already been announced). So it'll be Brawl 2.0(not speaking mechanically, rather character-wise) for me. Maybe the Mii Fighters, but I can't use them online(with anyone) and will likely be unable to use them in more organized play so what's the point?

It was Megaman, Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Pacman, Palutena, Little Mac, 'Mii Fighter'(exact wording was right for that one), 'a X/Y Pokemon' and Shulk. Not all of those were mentioned at once but the same guy added some to the list later after the first group was all confirmed.

I think he had legit info, especially in light of this footage, but not the full roster.

Saying Chrom was playable and saying that the announcement trailer the day Robin/Lucina were revealed was supposed to be Shulk's was kinda damning though.

okay now I'm actually going to boot up xenoblade, right now

I don't recall Nintendo themselves saying, "Character DLC is coming guys." I remember Sakurai stated that he'll think about DLC but not until after the game is out and already going, but nothing more concrete than that. Amiibos prove nothing as far as DLC goes, especially since I very strongly doubt that you could use, say, your Kirby Amiibo and get your Ultra Sword on in, say, Hyrule Warriors.

Yeah, Nintendo's internet services have been pretty good as of late. Smash definitely isn't Mario Kart 8, but I'm confident that they know how important it is to not gently caress it up. Also they've actually been doing DLC for other games, so there's precedent.

God I can't wait for SUPERSmash TV.

Is there anyone who isn't excited by the prospect of DLC? In a full price fighting game it seems important that everyone should have access to the same characters without having to pay extra to potentially have an advantage.

This is true, but when something is "planned DLC" it basically just means they were already intending to put it in anyway. Unless it's literally an issue of time constraints.

Because close-up shots of Tharja's butt make the leak totally believable.
