Has there been any confirmation regarding the supposed Palutena leak?

Has anyone found an image what would be the source for it if it were an edit or shoop?

The obvious source would be her model from Uprising, but she doesn't have a Starman charm in that one.

I have a message from another time...

[up][up]As I said before, I mean the source for the rest of the image. There's only so many Smash 3DS photos that have even been released. If the image is fake, we should be able to find where the rest of the image comes from.

On her belt, there's a Starman charm.

Right, what wlw is saying, find the starman charm on a 3D model of her in another image, and you find proof of fakeness. If not, we have to keep it in ??? territory for a while

No, what I'm saying is find the same Mario and/or background in another image, and if you can, then the Palutena "leak" is definitely fake. If we can't find it, then it's a ??? for now.

Of course, now that I've looked again at the "leak" images, that may be easier said than done, since there's not a lot of distinguishing features on them (which lends to it being a fake, actually). I misremembered what the images looked like.

I'm not sure any of those things that's dangling from her belt is a Starman, I think one of them is just a generic star-shaped charm.

From your link:

Now to this point on all boards I have checked, no one has been able to locate these images in any of the Kid Icarus games or AR cards to have this exact model for someone to photoshop from and also haven’t found the backgrounds of Battlefield either or even the Mario model down to the exact frame.
Emphasis added.

That's what I was looking for. Alright, I'll lean towards it being a real "leak", for now.

It's sort of in a strange halfway-there state. There are signs that it's fake (generic background, fan favorite character, zoomed to an implausible level even for a game partway through development) and signs that it isn't (what's been listed).

I'm hoping it's fake simply because I'd prefer Medusa.

It being fake doesn't make Medusa any more likely, though.

Well if Palutena is in then Medusa definitely won't get in. If she isn't in then Medusa still has a shot. It doesn't up her chances by being fake but it also doesn't decrease them like being true would.

"Definitely" is overstating it. I think Medusa won't probably get in if Palutena gets in, though. But Kid Icarus could get 3 characters total.

Shadow?

It's definitely a starman. There are little eyes on it.

I'm not too sure about KI having three characters. That seems like a bit of a stretch. If we only get one more I'd rather have a villain than another protagonist. Even if we do get three I'd prefer Magnus over Palutena.

The two Goddesses are the most important. After Medusa, Palutena is easily a great choice. Namely due to character importance, which I find a bit more notable here.

But eh, I like Palutena, although not as much as Medusa.

Shadow?

#34420: Jan 26th 2014 at 9:55:26 AM

It's not that I dislike Palutena. It's more that she doesn't really do a whole lot of fighting compared to Magnus. I'd be fine with either one though provided Medusa got in first. I'm just stating who I'd prefer as a third.

I was going to say how unlikely Palutena was since I didn't think she had a potential moveset, but then I remembered our last reveal was Rosalina.

At least we have seen Palutena fight with nice array of moves. Rosalina sort of has stuff.

Palutena fights just as much as Medusa in Uprising. There's totally legit movesets for her.

For anyone who thinks Palutena couldn't have a moveset: Chapter 20.

Medusa won't be playable because she is Too Big (tm).
