Tom, I have some bad news for you.
Sorry if I don't trust a poorly made roster. I've seen better Photoshopping done by children. G&w's hand reaching into Wario's square, Wario's pic was from a snap shot of his trophy in the game, ganondof's was most likely the same or from the results screen. The placement of characters didn't make sense; dr Mario, dark pit, and lucina stick at the bottom for no reason, yoshi in the middle of the "Mario" characters. Think about it, why would sakurai place characters like that?
Not the delusional one or in denial. I merely look at what's placed before me and made my conclusion.

The full roster select screen is fake. Period.
The videos and other screen shots were used to make it.
You have a problem with Sakurai's decisions in the roster? Well golly I thought Brawl's release was 6 years ago.

Still don't think the leak is real. I am hoping Sakurai is going to disconfirm it soon. There's no way he would add Dr. Mario

I don't have a problem with his roster I have a problem with the fake leaked roster picture. The placement on this"roster" do not follow his original suit of placing all the same franchise characters together.

The characters toward to the bottom are all clones of other characters. As opposed to Ganondorf, they do not have unique animations.


But I don't want Dr. Mario or Dark Pit. :(

Life goes on with a 45+3 clone-character roster. That's more than I was expecting, at the least.

That leak is pretty much confirmed. The shulk picture is the same as in the leak. Plus there's been hints at Dark Pit in the Palutena trailer. And Duck Hunt dog is just epic. Sad for Ice Climbers and the others that got bumped. Praying to the Master Hand that there's DLC

Heck, haven't played Xenoblade yet and still don't know anything about Shulk yet even I am excited about this.

A shame that we had to learn about it through a leak first instead of the official announcement. Oh well.

Was dr mario next to mario in melee? What about falco and fox? Pichu and pikachu? Marth and Roy? You're just making up reasons to support in now

remember its an esrb demo it should be that way for esrb
Did we see the select screen in any of the gameplay video leaks?

nope but for the ersb to understand they ordered it in a way that seems reasonable in the finale product everything is going to be grouped nicely

Go on to express my excitement and gratitude for Shulk inclusion, only to find that 99% of the comments are people desperately"confirming" a painfully obvious leak for cheap credibility and short lived fame.




You know, someone always has to go playing Captain Hindsight.

I kinda expect Dr. Mario to be an Alt Skin. I expect Mewtew to either be the LAST announcement or not announced at all but unlocked as one of the secret characters.

It's cool that Shulk made it in. He's definitely popular enough so he deserves it. I like what Sakurai did with Monado Arts allowing Shulk to change his attributes in battle. It could make for some tricky sequences. And he's got a cool final smash canon to Xenoblade.

Plus, all those Cloud fans will be all over him lol

I think the clone characters would still be placed with their respective franchise, I think having then separate would be more confusing.

Mini direct that proves leak is true (in japanese)
There are ASPECTS of the leak that were confirmed. It's still entirely plausible that elements were faked or are as yet incomplete. Please stop spamming the youtube link, thanks.

As a Cloud fan, I am still bummed about not getting Cloud. Not as bummed as not getting a Golden Sun rep, but still a little bit bummed.

Well, then you need to look at:

SSBM_Starter_Characters.png

These don't look like the characters are in the same spot you know. Oh wait, that's because they aren't. Even in Melee and Brawl, characters have been confined to be in different places BEFORE ALL OF THEM ARE UNLOCKED!

Then take into consideration of the new upcoming roster, of which actually places the characters in separate parts. Maybe the characters might not be in the same place, for one of two reasons:

1) The roster is not fully unlocked, as indicated by how it's not square or rectangle like. In Melee and Brawl, the screen always has a rectangle selection. In the special case of Melee, both Random selects were on the bottom left and right, under where Falco and Young Link would be.

2) The roster in the upcoming game actually places clone characters away from the originals this time. Dr. Mario, Dark Pit and Lucina's placements are a high factor in the fact that the three would most likely be clones of the originals, i.e. Mario, Pit and Marth. Since Lucina is confirmed a clone, this gives this more credibility and more reason.

Of course, both of these are reasonable explanations to a rather pointless argument of which I say, Tom, you need to stop being a man who doesn't like the roster.

Ehhh getting Cloud in this game is like a child's dream, ya know? As much as I would personally love to see him in here, it's not really possible. I could see reps from the old games get in though such as Black Mage and Thief or even actual characters from the "before 7" such as Firion or Cecil. But again, I don't really think it would happen but those are more likely than Cloud.

At least you got Shulk... and fancy that one of his Arts is called Buster :awesome:

No one has any right to be surprised about this...except the swimsuit costume, I mean.

We had VIDEO of Shulk being played, FFS. What other proof do you need?
