The smasher comes from the bottom of the arena
Sounds like made up "leak" from 4chan with no sort of reliable source designed to get peoples hopes up so they will be crushed when it doesn't happen.

Yeah I wouldn't get my hopes up for any of this to be true unless we get some hard evidence.

Source?

Even if you could unlock characters by linking the 3DS and Wii U together, how would that work exactly?

Th only reason why I brought it up was because it sounded somewhat familiar... Wasn't there a leak on NeoGaf the night Smash was released in Japan?

Source?

Source hunting isn't my thing, seems to be another 4chan leak. But after what happened last time...

It'd be really cool if that were real, but I have in mind that any leak stating Ridley is playable is fake, too good to be true.

In my eyes, all leaks are fake until video and pictorial evidence is provided.
I advise people to also take this viewpoint, lest they get their hopes up and have them crushed, because this is likely an attempt to do just that.

Random "leaker" on 4chan. Users on 4chan are anonymous to other users and doesn't require an e-mail to register so that's often where fake and real leaks occur.

This was proven fake the moment he stated everything was unlocked from the start

At the same time, however, it would be best t track down the source and find more info ASAP, so we can snuff this "leak" out quickly before it becomes viral, or at the very least find some credibility.

Ridley losing/growing wings? Really? When has that ever happened? This leak seamed so promising besides that, well Impa sounds bland too. I'm calling shenanigans.

That "Tower of Smash" sounds like something Sakurai would put in, but everything else seems way too far fetched (I dunno if Ridley growing and regrowing wings is actually canon or not, since I don't play a whole lot of Metroid) and until I see more reliable info, I'm not believing a thing.

I think this is fake however i think a tower of smash is possible.So this is what i'm gonna do if sakurai comes out and says there is a tower of smash this leak is 100% real and i'm on the bandwagon.

Well, there's only 2 reasons I even have an interest in it.

1. This guy's claim http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=129524882&postcount=14153 (Forgive me, not sure how to shorten this in this type of forum.) coincides with the 4chan leaker's claims.

2. The Mystery data missing from the 3DS game itself. As shown here, http://i.imgur.com/PtfcSVM.png (sorry again) There is a HUGE chunk of missing data from what the game claims it is. In fact, its almost as big as the game itself. This could be what was missing the whole time.

The leak says that characters in the wii u will be unlocked automatically but sakurai said in a pic of the day that characters would be harder to unlock in the wii u version so i'm calling this fake.

If you can source this than we can put this entire rumor out to pasture. Whenever you find it, please post it.

director Masahiro Sakurai said: "Pic of the day. A panel in the Challenges area will unlock everytime you clear a challenge. When you unlock a panel, you'll see hints for unlocking panels directly adjacent to it on all sides. And this time, each panel will unlock pictures related to the challenge. This is tougher than it looks, you know? The challenges in the 3DS version are a little on the easy side, but the Wii U version challenges might be a bit trickier." August 27th. Yeah not exactly saying character unlock methods are harder. Sorry. I feel it is sort of implied though.

I'm a Metroid fan, and can confirm this never happened; the closes thing was his wings getting burned off in Prime and eventually growing back (or possibly being reconstructed) by Corruption, but that's nowhere near the same ballpark as instantly regrowing them during battle.

As for the leak itself... I so, so want this to be true, but it almost certainly isn't.

I think we should take this leak with several thousand grains of salt.

While seeing Ridley, Dixie Kong, and Mewtwo's inclusion would make me overjoyed, we do not let leak or rumor threads in the general forums. Feel free to bring this to the Rumor and Leak Social Group.
