Admin Edit: This is a general Nintendo rumor discussion thread. Do not turn this thread into an indefinite Nintendo Direct countdown thread or a Pokemon rumor thread, or we'll be forced to lock it. Furthermore, do NOT post new rumors in this thread. Anyone that wants to post new rumors can create their own threads.
Here are some ground rules for posting in the thread:
-Do not attack leakers for being wrong, personnal attacks are not tolerated and even the best leakers are wrong once in a while.
-Refrain from posting new leaks/rumors here. This is an archive. Please post new leaks on their own threads like it has always been done. After they have been posted on their relevant thread and a moderator has allowed it, then it can be archived here. This is done to avoid cluttering the thread with a bunch of unreliable rumors. You can PM me new rumors tho (with a source).
-Absolutely do not post any Nintendo Direct rumor, or ask for updates about them, or hype, or "reset the clock" posts. If you have a credible Direct rumor, then make a new thread for it.
-Avoid posting Pokemon rumors, specially Pokemon starter rumors. Most are usually fake, and if you have a credible Pokemon rumor, then make a new thread.
-Do not post Smash Bros rumors. If you have a credible Smash Bros rumor, then make a new thread.
-When contributing current or old leaks, please provide a SOURCE.
-Only Switch leaks will be accepted so far. It might spill into 3DS/Mobile too if the rumors are related.
-Only leaks from credible people/websites will be posted. In the case of unknown/regular users or sites, the leak will be added after a moderator has verified the user is in a position to get insider knowledge, or after the general community has vetted if it's plausible.
-No 4chan rumor will be posted until it has been verified after-the-fact.
-For old leaks, I will also accept the ones that are now known to be incorrect or fake, as long as the source is someone that has/had a good reputation or from a credible website. So yes, any Emily Rogers, Laura Dale, 10k, Supermetaldave, Liam rumor that turned out to be incorrect will be posted.

I've always been fascinated with how some unlikely games can be rumored for months, then be totally forgotten, only for the game to be eventually announced. So, I've always wanted to have a central place where you can keep up with the current accepted leaks/rumors, and also look back at when/who/where leaked something, and when or if it came true.
In order to keep track of the reliability of the people spreading the rumors, I decided to highlight a select few numbers of them that prove themselves very reliable/unreliable.
Once a source is in the unreliable category, I'll stop archiving their rumors unless they prove themselves reliable enough in the future. Regarding the very reliable category, I am basing myself on the volume of rumors and their accuracy. I am starting with some strict minima but we'll see how it'll evolve with time.

- Marcus Sellars (bad track record, history of deleting tweets...)
