Unless there's more to unlock, I find that severely hard to believe. Cutting R.O.B., reducing Mother back to 1 rep, lowering Starfox for no reason, only two Third Parties when getting at least one more isn't too hard, especially a Bandai-Namco one, and then there's the badly made icons.
Just screams fake. All they did was remove some Brawl characters, and replace them with newcomers. The exact same amount of playable characters exist(and 5 of them are a bit buffed due to losing their transformation-based gimmick). Also, something I just read that was pointed out; Ice Climbers should be listed as Ice Climber. Decent fake, but too many errors. This is a notably bad typo, as using past pictures isn't beyond unbelievable. I think Melee used some too anyway.

Shadow?Ah, just noticed another knock to it- It labels the Ice Climbers as such, but in the Japanese versions of both Melee and Brawl, they're just "Ice Climber", due to the lack of distinction between singulars and plurals in Japanese.
I'm pretty sure that Meta Knight render is cropped from the first Brawl trailer, too.

I sure said that!
Pretty much.
Bad image choices aside(a lot of Melee's ones weren't terribly great either for icons), and even unpopular cuts aside(which aren't impossible), screwing up the Japanese naming scheme... is a huge deal. There's no way that could be real with a typo like that. It was already hard to believe as is, with such a tiny roster, but come on.

Presumably, anyway.
That said, being on a Tuesday during a School week is somewhat of a bad idea. People want to unlock everything, staying up late. That's why doing it on a Friday works better, since a good chunk of players will be able to play the whole weekend and unlock the normal stuff(Stages, Courses, Options) that affect playing with friends.

Yeah, but let's face it - nothing else gets half as much hype as the reveal of a new playable character, and we already know there aren't any exclusives there.
Although, that supposed release date says it's August 26, anyway, so I guess it doesn't really matter.

Welcome to th:|Soooo... What do you think they'll do with the next character reveals? In fact, we still don't know how big the roster could be, right?
I'm not good at thinking, so part of me believe they'll just annunce the rest for the E3. I don't know wether I'd like them to keep some characters secret or not.
It would be nice to have the surprise, but it'd just add to the stress and I would like to see some more cool introduction video's.
I'm rather hoping that there's still going to be at least one fighter that they're not going to spoil online.
Of course as soon as anyone gets them they'll paste it all over the place because people are terrible like that.
You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stay

Also, wow, that Mr. Game & Watch icon is just embarrassing.
I sure said that!
