Say nothing and let people fill in the gaps is the best way to leak.

Tbh while a lot of people were hoping for Smaeh predicting a Pokémon SwSh presentation isn't too out there and the rest of what was talked about was a given.

Only new thing is that DLC 7 is a new franchise so no Rex, Geno, or Pokémon anytime soon

I'm getting attached to this avatar. It's simple but Geno's resting bitch face resonates deep in my soul.

Saying that they're gonna delete the post sounds like a dead ringer for a post that never existed.

Wasn't this a reddit leak that someone posted in here yesterday?

Anyways, saying that a Pokemon presentation is "soon" and a Smash presentation is "imminent" is both vague and was a near-certainty anyways. The only interesting thing this leak implies is that MPT is Q1 2021 (saying it was "delayed" which is a weird way to put it), which is most likely not going to happen, so this leak reaches the coveted position of being both safe, most definitely fake, and boring.

I know it's not happening but I still want Doomslayer.

Just the angriest motherfucker who ever lived in a game with Kirby.

Too vague to be worth anything right now.

Also, unless they mean a Let's go Johto type thing, why would there be a Gen 2 re-release on Switch before we get a Gen 1 re-release on Switch?
I think they mean Let's Go Johto or something like that.

Rayman ought to go out for a drink with Earthworm Jim.

He certainly knows a lot about having a shitty dad.
wait not him too.
no not my favorite author.

In all honesty, I have yet to see an indie developer or developers (other than yandere dev) not be shitty. Toby fox seems cool. Dan Fornace seems cool. Yacht Club and Edmund McMillen seem cool.

How the hell do you get "popular in west" but also "unexpected"?
Henry Stickmin in smash.

This is the part where I joke about NMH's popularity mainly being in the west and how comparatively the expectation for it is still small time compared to big guns like Geno/Dante/2B/Hayabusa/Rex/etc. He's in! /s

Oh, I didn't even see that we're getting Pokemon news this week. Guess that's a RIP on Smash news... maybe next week!

And again and again.

Playing 13 Sentinels I'd like a character to get in (without the creepy cockpit art) but I'm not entirely sure who'd make it or how it'd even work. Iori and Juro are the posterchildren but they don't really get up to any on-the-ground fisticuffs like a few other characters.

At least Megumi could be a Joker echo, right down to the cat

What would honestly be a character that "no one expects"? Like, how small is that sample size

Honestly not entirely unlikely but the Japan/US centric audience wouldn't be able to see it coming

Doug TenNapel is massively transphobic, yeah.

Actually it just says "popular in the West".

Which could mean basically anything.

Also fuck Michel Ancel.

It's amazing how vague these things can be. Which West? South America? Are we getting a Master System rep? What if it's someone popular in France or Sweden?

Some day we really ought to stop using "The West" as shorthand for literally the whole world outside Asia.

I've called out Dizzy at LEAST twice in these threads, so like Karnov, Doshin and Bonk, he is FIRMLY in the "expected" camp.

Doug TenNapel is massively transphobic, yeah.
Dougie is a lot of abhorrent things. Never met a good Doug.

Maybe something like Fortnite? It's been discussed in the context of Smash -- everything has -- but it's never really dominated the conversation frequently enough like Geno/Dante/Crash/etc. to be considered "expected."
Jonesy was commonly speculated toward the end of the first pass because of he-who-must-not-be-named and is still talked about. He's kinda become the diet-Minecraft Steve. Also, Fortnite is big worldwide.
