I meant he doesn't have free range at all characters. Think Sakurai mentioned he had a few choices laid out when he picked Graninja.
Would like to see which one he would pick if he could choose from all 700.

Who is that obscure Nintendo character #115?
A guy with an extremely embarrassing hat.
The most I could see is TPC making suggestions, but Sakurai has final say over what Pokémon gets in the game.
Sakurai is an accomplished game developer with a proven track record.

Even if the leak is fake (which, yeah, I'm pretty sure of at this point) I'm still thinking box theory is bunk. Most insiders seem to be leaning on 2-3 more newcomers. If I were a betting man, I'd say we're getting Ken, Incineroar, Shadow, Sora... and MAYBE Geno, if we're lucky. Or another character that's sort of out-of-left-field and hasn't been teased or hinted at, like Elma or a retro character or whatever.
Again, Smash rarely ends on a high note for its reveals. The only time it has was with Bayonetta.

At the same time, though, much of this "hype cycle" or marketing period has bucked many trends/traditions with Smash. Who's to say that's not another one?
Didn't Smash For have a pretty consistent lead up all the way to the end, though? That'd be different than radio silence for months before ending things with an Echo and a character everyone already knows is in.
Right. I think that others can make suggestions, but ultimately they leave it up to Sakurai.
There's a quote from earlier today from her Twitter when she said "I'm not buying what the Grinch leak is selling" or something along those lines.
This gif makes me so happy. DK64's Game Over sequence terrified me as a kid.
I don't think it's a barrier at all. If both companies want to make it happen, then it will happen. That's really all there is to it. Microsoft would, I'm sure, enter into a similar agreement as any of the other third parties. And the reason third parties trust Sakurai in general with their characters is that he has a very high level of respect within the industry, and they trust him to treat their IP right. Which thus far, he always has.
Small thing that might be inconsequential but say Jonneh does have sources he's not comfortable talking about and he had info on Isabelle and maybe the rest of the roster.
They did talk about Box Theory and felt that it wasn't right. So if Jonneh might've had info on the roster and he and GameXplain don't believe Box Theory that could be a ray of hope.
Is it a Dillon character?
But this is also only the 2nd Smash that could end with a Direct.

This might be the only time I smile seeing him laugh at someone.
i hadn't noticed the textures on that chair, those are very N64esque lol
man i feel i can see the exact pose this character's been inWho is that obscure Nintendo character #115?
either doing an anime ojousama laugh or holding their hand to their face and going the hehehe pose
but i suppose that speaks mroe to how generic the pose is
We are talking about the same series that features Cloud, a character who had only ever appeared in minor cameos on Nintendo systems up until the very recent announcement of a FF7 port, right?
Also 4 out of Banjo's 5 games were on Nintendo hardware, it's not like they disappeared just because there are Xbox ports.
3, actually. If I recall, we have Melee, Brawl, & Wii U/3DS to go on.
I'm not sure what to think really. Back during the ESRB business, I didn't want it to be true since it was fairly disappointing, but in my gut I could tell that it was likely real. Even when the videos came out, I thought that maybe they were Brawl mods. With this Grinch stuff, I want it to be real, and as a result maybe I'm believing in it more, because I'm sort of leaning real. I'm convinced that the actual Grinch images are real, and that as such, in the scenario that this is fake, the person must have used work equipment for his own photoshopped image. Not really sure to make of the impersonation stuff and if that is legit, a lie, or just something that unintentionally popped in there. Given how the bands are encased in plastic, and there are multiple of them, along with everything else though I can't help but feel the more likely explanation is that it's legit. And I guess I weight that more in my mind than my trust of industry insider's trust for their sources.
Even though I'm weighing in my head more to the side that its real, I can see it being fake too. Hopefully we get an update to the banner soon to solidify things. Even just Ken getting added would probably settle things.

well, not zelda, for some reason
they were weirdly cagey about that
I'm still neutral on the leak rumor. There hasn't been enough evidence to sway me either way. Yes the image looks very convincing and there are a lot of details that most wouldn't put in. But I can still believe that someone would put in that much effort. On the flip side, yes a lot of credible insider have come out against it. But being right in the past doesn't mean you are correct now. Even among those insiders, there doesn't seem to be a consensus as to what the final roster may be. Someone's word isn't proof and none of the insider have shown anything of substance to discredit or support the image. I understand why they can't but for me personally, I need something more substantial.
So I guess I'll have to wait until Nintendo shows something to find out and I think we are all in that same boat.

Still the last time they ended on a character was supposed to be a surprise and a big deal.
Having the game's 10th obligatory Pokémon really doesn't seem like the type of thing they'll end on. Especially not on presentations that seem more geared to fans
By number who was the last character in the base roster for smash4 ?
Kinda sorta, Zelda wasn't properly revealed to actually be playable until later if memory serves me correctly.
