It was a fake ... Please , verify your sources before saying something .
Umm...seeing as how "Bandana Dee" isn't the official name for that character...I doubt it. That character has no official name, but I'd be shocked if Nintendo decided to just use his fan given name. So yeah, proven fake."Alright, before I go into detail about everything and everyone calls me a fake, let me speak.
First off, I do not want to give very many details about my source, because I am aware of what happened with the “ESRB” leak, and the leaker himself. As you can imagine, I certainly don’t want to end up like him. All I will say is that I work at Nintendo of America on various positions.
About a week or so ago, one of my co-workers showed me and a few others a video about Smash Bros. They said they were “two new character trailers”.
I have not heard anything else about this, so excuse me as I am merely going off of memory from what I saw. I apologize in advance if I am unable to describe everything perfectly, as I am not familiar with some franchises.
The first trailer began with the Smash Brothers logo as usual, and it was a cinematic set on a mountain with what I assume is King Dedede’s castle. It quickly faded out into a scene of Kirby running inside it, with Mario and a few others who I wasn’t able to clearly see.
King Dedede was then seen hitting some sort of button with his hammer followed by Kirby falling into a trap while the others are fighting his Waddle Dee army.
Kirby is locked into a ring with King Dedede, he dodges his attacks, and easily beats him. He is about to finish him off when a spear flies onto the ring and hits Kirby. A silhoutte is from the back with King Dedede looking back with a silly face and surprise, as Waddle Dee (with a Blue Bandana) gets onto the ring. He makes an odd pose with a spear the tagline “Bandana Dee Waddles into Battle!” shows up, then it cuts to gameplay.
The music during this part was some sort of Green Greens remix which I was not familiar with. He appears on a large new stage with green plains and tan structures in the background. From memory, a lot of his moves are based around his spear. He has one where he twirls it above his head to fly, and overall, he throws it around quite a lot. Another clip in the gameplay footage showed him next to the other Kirby characters, and one with him next to Knuckle Joe fighting.
The final gameplay clip had what I assume is his Final Smash(?) where he summons a large orange dragon with four heads. They blasted fire everywhere, then into the center to end the trailer.
After the Smash logo appears, it fades out, then back in again to show a Kirby-sized levitating blue creature with horns. It made a noise with a caption under it that says “Smash Bros? This should be interesting..”
Now for Ridley’s trailer.
Similar to Sonic’s trailer, it starts off with a clip of Samus and Charizard fighting on the Pyrosphere stage. In a cinematic style, Samus lands on the ground after being attacked by Charizard. Right before she gets up, a shadow of Ridley like the one in the Direct appears above her, with Samus looking up. It zooms in on her eyes and shows a sepia-tone flashback of all the past newcomer taglines in a quick manner. (Villager comes to town! Mega Man joins the battle! etc.) Which then goes back to Samus.
She moves out of the way, and Ridley lands. Just like in Little Mac’s trailer, it pans in on different parts of his body, which leads up to his head. He’s about to show his newcomer tagline, but is interrupted.
It makes another reference to Little Mac’s trailer. It zooms out between the 3 fighters, and it shows that Ridley is considerably larger than the other two. Out of nowhere, a bunch of Mario Mushrooms fall out of the sky shrinking Ridley down immensely. Right after that, Ridley screeches and it shows his tagline: “Ridley Sizes Up for Battle!”
It then cuts to gameplay with him on the Pyrosphere stage. Before him land 3 other fighters, Shulk, Pac-Man and Dr. Mario. I assume he gets revealed prior to this?
The music in his trailer was a remix of the traditional Ridley theme but it sounded very well from what I heard. There’s a scene of him defeating the Mother Brain Assist Trophy, and taunting next to Dark Samus. Another gameplay clip has him flying around the Boxing Ring stage, with Little Mac struggling to attack him. (A few bits of laughter from other employees came around the room during this scene.) The final scene I remember seeing was him fighting other characters on a Wii U stage. I’ve played enough Metroid to recognize that he was on Tourian, with the 16-bit golden boss statue in the background.
From what I recall, they didn’t show his Final Smash, they just had a cinematic of him flying towards the screen at the end of the trailer. There were more scenes in it, but they didn’t stand out to me very much.
And that’s the content I saw. Again, I apologize if I wasn’t able to name all of the parts or characters, as there are some games in the Kirby series I haven’t played. I’m more of a Metroid and Zelda person."
Definitely another interesting "leak". As always, take it with a grain of salt, but definitely worth reading

??????![]()
Yep. That leak is 100% fake.
Actually, its real name is Bandana Waddle Dee. Bandana Dee is just the shortened fan version of it.
He's called bandanna dee in thr game as well,look at that last pic
If BDee is going to be in the game they will give him a spruced up Model.
To be fair the statue of Porky that chases you in Subspace Emmisary (fairly certain it's from Mother 3) is a trophy.
Really? I can't seem to find an image of it anywhere, any way you could link me to an image of it?
The Waddle Dee models are low poly because they'd otherwise drag the game performance down, this has held true for all non-playable and non-boss characters in Smash's history.
Guess porky goes in DLC pile
Hoping that leak is true. It'd explain why Bandana Dee and Ridley are missing trophies.
Actually, no, so far no Protoman trophy.
Doesn't mean anything. There's no Dr. Light, Roll, or Bass trophy either. I think they just got lazy with the MM trophies.
OK, well, either way, that's only theory (my previous post)
I actually have the trophy but can't find it online, so here have a direct potato-quality image
the last part sounds like it was a scrapped smash run enemyI actually have the trophy but can't find it online, so here have a direct potato-quality image
Possibly. Though it's most likely referring to how you can fight it in Mother 3.
I suppose it may be interesting to note the frequent references to Porky, without there being an actual Porky trophy to explain who he is.I actually have the trophy but can't find it online, so here have a direct potato-quality image
I'm pretty sure how it keeps saying Porky is a joke about how he is self-centered and arrogant, at least in Earthbound.
Sonic kinda deserved the trophies he got. Megaman has some of the best remixes in the game and the most hype, Pacman has new exclusive stages on both versions of the game and Namco items, while Sonic reuses Green Hill Zone and has only two unremixed songs. Maybe thats their way in making the three equal(More Music, More Items, and More Trophies).Ragnpost: 17768840 said:

Add Fire Emblem in there, and you have the game in a nutshell.
Well I do love the Awakening trophies and HOLY **** these Megaman trophies are really high-res! As we got a Rayman trophy, I really, really hope we get Phoenix Wright trophies.Add Fire Emblem in there, and you have the game in a nutshell.
EDIT: Apparently, Sakurai is watching me. A little after I post that, these come up:
And he also states Roll and Protoman trophies will appear as well.
Porky was far more prominent in Earthbound, sure his influence is bigger in Mother 3 but he doesn't actually appear until the very end.
