The list does look pretty cool. But 7 Mario characters?
 
My stance on this whole thing is that it could really go either way. If it's real, then that's okay. But not having Ice Climbers or Ridley makes me upset. But I'd eventually get over it.

Like I said, it could go either way but don't act shocked if it's real.
 
Dr. Mario could easily be an alt costume, he doesn't deserve a full character spot. Same with Dark Pit and Lucina.
 
If it is real, no Mewtwo but Dr. Mario & Dark Pit is pretty sad to me.
Not to mention no Ridley neither.

That is basically the downfall of this leak. The clones artwork is just altered of the existing characters.

That doesn't discredit the leak. Don't let your opinions color the legitimacy of it.
 
Someone could also make a custom Dr. Mario model and render it in a 3D program, if they really are a dedicated heart shattering low lifers.

Believe me, that method could make your 3D renders look real. Slap on some blur and bad quality images and...? Ta-da?
 
Even so, making alternate artwork, albeit a GOOD one, is much harder to do than just making a 3D model that looks legit, imo
 
I kind of hope the leak is fake, especially because of Dr. Mario and Dark Pit. Those should be palette swaps, not used-up character slots.

Really, the only thing I like about the "leak" is Shulk. The rest I really don't care about.

Pretty much. I'm not going to lie, if the leak is real, my hype will instantly drop. So many shitty choices.
 
If it was real, I guess I'm just glad finally seeing Ness

I'd be insanely unhappy at Ice Climbers being DLC though

I don't know how "slots" factor in Smash Bros. Sure, they take up programming, model, and animation time, but they don't take another person's slots. It does look weird that these two have their own slots, but you can arrange the roster in creative ways.
 
Besides, I don't think Kid Icarus deserves a third rep

Not before Yoshi's Island... or Samus Metroid. :P
 
Well let me reword my post

I don't think Kid Icarus deserves a third rep before other series get more reps first.

everyone crying bloody murder when 3d player makes a post/opinion is seriously childlike like come on

No one is crying murder him. There's a difference with an opinion backed up with strong evidence and an opinion backed up with weak implications and logical fallacies. It's NOT the same level as "I think Sceptile deserves to be in the game", he's basically saying ANY leak without those characters are fake, which is laughably false. Ignorance can only be corrected with facts, and sometimes being blunt on calling him out is the only way he can change his obviously flawed perceptions.
I meant overreacting, because like you, everyone else's intention was totally to help him correct his perceptions instead of just mocking him for his post

Game Boy Toadvance said:
also you're all dismissing the images with claims like "why couldn't he get better images, fake", "photoshop/brawl mods exist, fake", "[character you don't like]? wow what the *bleep*, fake" when seriously these have no merit as evidence at all

NO ONE is saying "hurr durr brawl modding, it's false". I'm pretty sure your post is directed at me, since the Yoshi's Island pic in the leak, I called out for for POSSIBLY being a brawl mod, which could be very real.

You shouldn't be calling out on people who believe that it is possible that the images could be the result from Brawl modding, ESPECIALLY if said people calling it out has legitimate experience with Brawl modding aka me.
I read most of the thread and everyone seems to be parroting those specific statements, and I made a mistake in assuming that someone else had said that as well, so I'm sorry you took it as though I was calling you out. I never questioned your modding ability or any of that other stuff though

anyway, I'm also not happy with Ice Climbers and Lucas being used as DLC while Dr. Mario and Dark Pit (who could have honestly been palette swaps) get in the final game, sure Dr. Mario was cool in melee but did he seriously need priority over the ICs?

Duck Hunt looks kinda neat as a character imo

Same. Donkey Kong and Metroid both need newcomers.

Also, I very well understand that Mario is Nintendo's biggest franchise, but I don't see why it has 7 reps while Pokémon and The Legend of Zelda both only have 5.
Pokémon had 7 reps while Mario only had 4 reps back in Brawl.

First, what do you define as a "mario" rep? Those with a Mushroom insignia?

Two more isn't that much more than Pokaymon, which had technically MORE reps than Mario, in Barlw.
 
@GBAToad: apology accepted.

but I apologize for any overreacts I've made. It's very easy for my emotions to hijack my logical intuitions

...as far as I know, Mario's reps are as equal as Pokemon's so far

I mentioned that already. :P
 
Yeah, you did.

But it really depends on your definition on what is a Mario rep, because Donkey, Diddy, Yoshi, and Wario all technically qualify.
